SENATORIAL FRACAS.
Yesterday morning, before the Lieut. Gov
ernor took his seiU as President of the Senate,
two. member of that bdy, Messrs. Parham and
Martin, had some words with one another, from
which they got to blows. A great deal of con.
fusion ensued farpongst the grave gentlemen
assembled in the Senate chamber, and no small
difficulty was overcome in keeping the combat,
ants apart. Some one. called the Senate to order
by proposing thej Hon. Walter Brashear as
President pro.hen. whereupon quiet was re
stored and thu Senate proceeded to transact
more appropriate business. It is supposed that
the rencontre grejw out of the election of U. S.
Senator the day before. Picayune, Jan. 27.
Stalesville is distinguished for its quietness
and good order. In the midst of a population

long commended the Juries of this Couniy ; and

STATESVILLE,
The seat ofjustice for Iredell County was
laid out in 1790 the year that the County was
taken from thej Western part of Rowan. The
Town limits contain fifty acres of lnd, deed
ed by Fergus Slpan to George Davidson, Jere
miah Nelson, Joseph Sharpe, John Nisbet, and
Christopher Houston, the original Town Com
missioners. A jarge part of the tract, howev
er, is unsuitable for buildings, and unoccupied
for that purpose.j A better location might have
been found, either East or West : it was pro.
bably located liere for one reason, on account
of Fourth Crek Church, which had then been
built near forty yars. Why the name, States.
ville, was given it, is difficult to say. We may,
however, mention some facts about its location.
If we take the parallel of Raleigh, and follow it
here, we shall firjd this place very nearly in a
line West of tnc jCapital, and about 150 miles
distant; if we: follow on the same parallel, to
the West line ofithe State, we shall find about
thje same distance. If we look to the S. E. the
line to Fayettevijle is not far from 150 miles.
i If we take the meridian and go South 150 miles,
we come to Columbia, S. C. Not only so ; but
it stands on lhaljline about equidistant from the
North and the Spulh boundaries of the State.

In her death an afflicted husband has been bereaved
of an amiable and affectionate companion in life, and i
the community robbed otn excellent member.
In her youth, she connected herself with the German
Reformed Church at Gree, Lincoln County, now Ca
tawba, and up to the time of her death, continued to a
dorn her profession by a godly walk and conversation ;
and by the exemplification of those christian graces
which are the legitimate fruits of a sincere faith in the
Redeemer.
Our sister thus torn away from all those considera
tions which entwined themselves around earthly friends,
without even being permitted to give them her last adieu
or give them a parting look, is gone, we trust, to meet
the society of the redeemed in heaven, where! the loss of
earth and earthly friends, will be more than compensa
ted. Let "her friends not sorrow therefore, as those who
have no hope, but rather let them say with the Poet :
" Thrice happy soul who's gone before,

To labor, sorrow, si2;h no more.
But bright in endless glory shine."
