On motion of Mr. Moore of Wake, the

viz:
"The stylo of tho acts and laws Bhall
be, "Bo it enacted by tho General As

as follows :"
Mr. Moore, of Wake, moved to amend

Tumor nnd Loach, in opposing tho onir
it ot secession manitostcd in tuo State
Senate in 18G0-C2, had annoyed the 6C
cessionists by repeated calls for the yeas
and nays. Jlo believed the change was
made with a view to silencing tho voices
of loyal men, and depriving them of
record.
Mr. Eaton did not see how any loyal
man could object to the section .as
stood. It was substantially the same as
the provision contained in tho Constitu

cal.

CoUlinton A. Cilley, lato assistant bu
perintendont of , tho Froodroon'a Bureau
and Abandoned Landa for thia, district,
kaa been arrested on tho chargo of mal
feasance in tho administration of tho du
ties for which ho was' specially commis
sioned to porform. Rumor says tho
chargo. it, that ho oppressed Hue. negro,
at thotfifctigatiou of tho whites. ()r, i
other words, that ho favorod tho latter
at tho expenso and injury of the former.
Thcro is no doubt, wo suppose, that. Col.
CiUy was commissioned, us were an oi-i
uccrs oi tuo Jiurcau, 10 oppress uic oouui-
ern whites and flavor and elevate tho ne
gro ; for this, wo conceive to bo tho only
object of tho Frecdmcn's Bureau ; but if
60, Col. Cilley choeo not to follow tho "de
sign in this particular, but dealt fairly and
did justico between all. So that, if ho is
arrested or censured at all, it is becauso he
dared to do righi and act honestly iu the
discharge ot a public duty, if ho ever mis
treated or oppressed any negroes, wo
never heard of it. If ho over did
more than justico demanded for any of
tho whites, wo havo not heard of it.
This Btory will bo news to our people.
They will lis ten to it with a smile of do
rision.
Wo know that Col. Cilley was fre
quently censured and denounced by
many of our people for his supposed fa
voritism towards tlio negio.in rendering
his decision in matters ot duueuuy bo

We trust tho rumor is false; but if
true, Col. Cilley will have no diliicnlty

AN EXCELLENT PROPOSITION.
Tho ordinanco introduced into tho
Convention by Mr. McCorkle, of Stanly
countyj to prohibit tho Legislature from
electing its own members to oilice, is a
much needed measure, and its adoption
would result in remedying a jjreat evil.
It has been tho practice Of our Legisla
turcs to fill nearly all tho offices with its
owjn members. If a Judge or Solicitor
is to be elected, a member is given the
place, becauso ho is on tho g'rouud and
can "log roll," electioneer and pull the
wires successfully. If an important Coni
--mission is to be appointed, members of
tho Legislature combine arl tlect them
selves. And to such, uu ,. extent has this
practice been carried, that persons who
aspiro to curtain offices first secure their
election, to the Legislature in ordr to
secure the ouiee they want.
It is frequently tlio case that tho fate
of important public measures are made
to depend on the whims or combinations
of members who desire to appropriate
the offices. Let 6iich evil and corrupt-
rig practices bo invented by an Ordi
nance ot tlio Convention, and let it be
the- law that no man shall be elected to
an office by the Legislature while he is
a member of tho Legislature.
bomo ono may raiso tho objection that
sucA alaw. wouldideprive tue btate,some
tunes, of the services of some ot the
qest men ; but let it be remembered that
tho best talent is not always to be found
iu the Legislature or in Congress. "There
are as good fish in the sea as was ever
taken out of it." Charlotte Democrat.
PIETY GIVES NO EXEMPTION
FROM SUFFERING.
A good, man 13 by no means exempt
from, tho danger of entierinsr by the
crimes of others ; even his goodness may
raise him enemies ot implacable malice
and restless perseverance ; the good man
has never been warranted by heaven
from the treachery of friends, the diso
bedience of children, or tho dishonesty
of aw'fe; he may see his cares made
useless by profusion, his instructions de
feated by perverseness, and the kindness
rejected by insrratitude : ha may ,lan-
guish under the infamy of accusations,
perish reproachfully by an unjust sen
tence. A cood man is subject, like other mor
tals to all tho influences ot. natural evil ;

The British version of the fight at Ridgway
is that tho attack was jnada by lintish troops,
who drove the remans. A numbor were killed
on both sidos. The volunleeis were expected
to hold their own for reinforcements to reach
them, which were momentarily expected.
Auieric ui neutrality is severely censured, and
tho people -declare that the government ism

of attack, which will be on the lino of the 6t

A decided impression was made npon
tho guests at a hotel table at Meridian,

dier, who rose from his 6eat and kindly
waited npon a one-armed Confederate
soldier, who could not help himself very
well. Iho attention was naturally and
delicately paid and gratefully received;
Tho Meridian Messenger, which relates
tho incident, says : "Tho spirit ot that
crrav-haired Federal 6oldier would do
more towards reconciling JNortn and
South than any spirit which has ever in
vaded tho room where the committee or
fifteen hold their sessions and pump all
