It will be seen by the following lettsr from the ttorney-Genoral to the Secretary of State that, among oiner iniogs, me legislature at toe recent session has extended the time for the redemption of land sold Jo the State for taxes, until 1st of January, 1831, and that to delin quents who may redeem before 12th March. 1880, special inducements are offered : Att'y. Gen'ls. Office, 1 Raleigh.Mv. 22, '79 J To the Secretary of State : . ,f, I have the honor to - reply to' yours requesting my opinion -upojj the acts of 1879, in regard to the extension of time for redeeming: of land, and for the relief of land own ers, and will dispose of the poinW in the order in which they are pers secuted by your communication : 1 Do you consider the acts in conflict with each other ? The act entitled "for the relief of land owners whose land has been sold to the State for taxes," pro vides that if within a year from its ratification the party pay to the. Treasurer the taxes due at the time of sale and also the taxeg that may have accrued since the sale, and 10 per cent, on amount due at the time of sate, the Secretary shall execute a deed of conveyance, etc. Ratfied March 13, 1879. The a&t entitled "to extend the time to redeem land sold for taxes and bought by the State" simply extends the time for redemption until January 1st, 1881, but upon the condition of paying all taxes due at the time of sale, and the per cent, required by law, and also all such taxes as would have been due upon the land, hai no sale taken place, etc. Ratified March 13, 1870. The settled rule for the construc tion of statutes relating to the same subject matter, is to view them to gether, as a whole, and if possible to carry out the legislative intent. And unless it plainly appears that they are in conflict with the eons'.i- Matfon, effect should be given to them, and each of them, because it is presumed the legislature design- d that they should not be anulity. .4fcer a careful consideration of these acta above cited, I think they vi e . are reconciiaoie tor toe reasons hereinafter stated. 2. What per cent, is the delin quent to pay prior to March Id, 1880 ; add what alter that date and prior to January 1st, 1881 ? Under the act "for the relief of and-owners," one year is given for redemption, if tbe delinquent avails himself of its benefits be it required to pay 10 per cent, in addition to the cjst8,etc. The legislatdre seems to have intended to favor those who would redeem in one year after the ratification of the act, by reducing the per contage required by the general law, t L 1 1 is to qay, if the d nipnou wa- iicrtec'.ed prior to March LSSC, after which Ute j he act expires or its own limita- ! i 1 r.'.L.. i?n, ana no mriunr luuuigyu-je couid bo had under it. Now between Much 13, 1880 i,iid January 1st, 181, the arc "to fxte&d the time to redeem" can operate in full force without coi-flict with the other, and both can nave a chance to contribute to the relief of delinquent taxpayers. It must be observed however, that the terms upon which redemption is had under the last mentioned act, are not so favorable : for if the year elapses ae provided in the first mentioned act, the per cent, to be paid, is that "required by law." And the law siys it shall be 25 per cent. Acts 1876- 77, xhap. 155, sec. 6i, re enacted in the present revenue and machinery act. So, tbe conclusion is, if a delinquent redeem prior to March 12, 18S0, he is required to pay 10 per cent ; if after the time and betore January 1, lcol, he is required to pay 25 per cent. 3. In reply to your question m reference to the cancellation and return of deed upon the payment of money, I will state that J think the only purpose of this provision is to re-invest the party with the title to the land redeemed. The legislature has prescribed the mode of doing it, and I take it that what ever is directed to be done should be done. Therefore, daring the year ending March 13, 1880, the Secretary should execute the deed as provided in the first mentioned act ; and in order to conduce to xhe reconciliation of the apparently conflictieg statutes on this subject, 1 think he should devise a conven lent method of releasing the party by a quit-claim deed of the State, "to be endorsed upon the deed con- vpyisg the property -it tbe fetite, (alter cancellation,) and fix hi3 8el, returning the papers to the delin quent, and.nqtiog the samo on, tke bookr in hia eflice. - ..- Afur the lih' of March, 1880, the mode prescribed in acts of 18T6 '77, chap. 155, Bee. 34, .may "be arrain resorted to in order to effec- ThTirsd&y; 1 . .... -" Urt Jl t ' -1 w t B. ii tuitelfhppYs catty oft paymeittf aiMon: co&tiwid FWitwiatoitfttifc u mhp.sohijb idea .Wf Jprt rfr2l terms could be had under thtf rW ' may nta LOera ettamettictimHttcain to say that iff addition ' t action in per ceatage, theleaisk-:! tufa intended to!

Island And a large number or slaves. The increase of the abolition senti ment, caused an emigration ef the slaves to more thorough and secure slave sections ; and the slaves who were thus sent off many being born there naturally looked back to their old homes, w"hero they had lived in clover, with feelings of re gret, as ther ctfnld norimagine any piaCC 11K.O J12LJ o. iicuiio lb uo- came synonomousiwith an ideal lo cality, combinine esse, comtort and material habpinessof erery descrip tion. In those days negro singing: and minstrelsy were in: their infan cy, and any subject that could be wrought into a ballad was eagerly pieked up. This was the case with "Dixie." It was first set to music and introduced -as a song by Dan Emmet, a elever and popular negro commedian, author of several pleas ing negro melodies. t wa sang in New York, qnd assumed thepro-i portioaa of a song there. Its ori gin has been described as Southern, but such is not the case.
