If eveiry bill introduced in the leg
ialattrre, "up to the presenVshould be
fnlty argued, (as they ought to be)
it would require a ten year's session.

friend; Piatt, elected to the Senate by
the NeTork Legislature!:
! There ; is a bill in the legislature
to make ' the , railways reduce
their fare. .. This - is hopeful.' sinoe
most of 'them are popularly supposed
to hold free passes in their pockets.
The lejuon of last season for you,
farmer, is that you have no corn to
buy this jear. Now, will the ootton

corn; then your cotton.
OUaraisin Washington looking
after his1 contest with Capt Kitchen
for his seat in Congress. . We expect
the upshot of the case will be thai
both wiffdraw pay from the peo
ple's treasury. These cases ought
to be decided in a non-partisan way
sconce, i and the ousted member
should reeerre no pay.
A private letter from Washington
City informs us that it is rumored
that HonF. S. Philips wfll "be Gen.
Qarneld'a Attorney General- This
is the bestman that could possibly
he taker! from Southern Republican
ranks. lAn able lawyer and a free
man he is.
A bill has been introduced in the
lower house of Congress by Mr.
While, of Pennsylvania, proposing a
Constitutional amendment providing
that United States Senators shall be
elected try trie people of each State,
instead Of by the Legislature. .
Glorious Mr. Horney of the House
has had -the courage to introduce a
bill to protect sheep husbandry by
taxing dogs.
Pass tie bill and this legislature
will be embalmed in the memories
of wise roen and convince people
tlmf all "politicians are not dema-

gogues. ft
With great ceremony and brilliant
pageantry. Gov. Jarvis and State of
ficers wefe inaugurated on Tuesday,
ending is a grand full dress ball at
night While they were tripping
their "ht fantastic toes," poor
children kere rubbing their pangful
and cold struck toes. ,;
Of all the vast abilities Gen. Grant
possesse, and they are many, the
faculty to get gifts is greatest.
With the Presidency of the World's
Fair Association and the - Niearagna
business the old man will scoop
about 1200,000 a year.
Poor Durham has had another
terrible fire, in which twenty build
ings were! destroyed, mostly fine
stores. Such calamities fall with
terror and prostration on a people,
struggling to recover from the effects
of the war.
If the legislature can't see it will
be more beneficial to debtor and
creditor, financially, to have sales
published in a newspaper so that
buyers may read, than stuck on an
obscure tree to be washed off by the
rain or, tern off by some designing
person, they should better attempt
no important legislation but come
home and leave such work to the
next erop.H
With the Turk and Greek compli
cation whion- it is now thought can
only be settled by war, with the
starving and rebellious Irish peas
antry on the hands of England; Bus
sia and Turkomen fighting; with un
settled questions in South America
and never-ending Indian broils, it
only needed the universal cold snap
and general wood and coal famine to
complete the complexity.
There is no subject to which the leg
islature could more earnestly and
suitably address itself than the rect
ification of the defects in the school
law.
Many suggestions of different
sorts have been offered in the news
papers, all qf which contain more or
less merit, 'the wise portion of these
might be culled and engrafted in a
general lawJ '
Though a wiser law should de.
mand more taxes, we believe the
people could stand - the difference
with resignation, in such a cause. . At
all events, the papers with one accord
will sustain our legislators, and the
people and the papers are apt to be
in unison on such questions, or they

In this section we believe the

publish full proeeedings as offering
Httle enlightenment'to our readers and
filling space. The Baleigh New
from which we condense, only gives
the headings of bills introduced, but
we will mention khe most important
in synopsis.
A bill to pay
jurors, to punish
Coroner's inquest
abortion, to pro
tect 'ministers from working public
roads, to throw the election back to
August, touching! meeting of County
Commissioners, to allow ' defendant
to testify, petition of Robins of Nash
to contest londsey's seat, several
bills,, by Republicans to place elect
ion of Justices and County Commis
sioners with the people, to exempt
cotton and woolen manufacturers
from taxation, toj amend road law.
to change bastardy law, to make 30
pounds a bushel of 'cotton seed, to
revive and amend public school laws,
that after 95 no person shall vote
who can't read or j write, (to amend
constitution therefore), to regulate
freight charges.7 to; repeal tax on
horse drovers, to lay 50 eta tax on
clogs,: good ?i i;
' Vanderbilt and the Unirersity.
W. H. Vanderbut, the millionaire
philanthropist of ISTew York, through
Rev. Dr. a F. Deems, Pastor of the
Church of the Strangers, New York
has nobly added $10,000 to ; the
North Carolina tJnirersity Deems
fund established for the benefit of
indigent students .
We are glad North Carolina has
so great a friend as "Tier t iUustrious
Son, Dr. Deems hMself; and we re
joice earnestly thai
the good Doctor
has been able to interest the million
aire in our behalf.
Nowhere v is u philanthropy more
needed than here. tWhilemost South
ern Colleges hare' endowments, our
brighest jewel, adornedLadownalong
line of historical lustre, has to work
out itsown desty7 aidless sad
seemingly thankless. ; s
The establishmeiit of the fund by
Dr. Deems, no doubt suggested the
donation to Mr, landerbilt, but it
come unexpected to and unasked by
the Doctor from that gentiemesuJ
- It was as graceful as it ' will ' be
grateful thing. ' ,

a v i r Crualtr Animals- v.
Charlotte OtaetwrVr
T The Tarboro Sotdhemtr is " ably
championing the cause of the animal
kingdom in urging a law for the pro
Section of the brute creation from
the heartless, criminal, crueny oi
man.! The editor of that paper has
twin in communication with Mr.
Bergh, of New York, and has placed
the New York law in the hands of a
member of the General Assembly or
North Carolina. Mr. Bergh writes
that the law has been amended from
time to time to meet the technical
Objections of shrewd lawyers, until it
is T nearly perfect. ' The I Sout&tm&r
adds that the same law ' was passed
by the Arkansas Legislature, and a
similar one graces 'and glorifies the
statute books " of thirty-four States
Of the American Union, j It is not at
all likely that ; the present Legislat
ure will fail to add it to the laws of
North Carolina j for once presented,
it appeals directly to our humanity
in a manner jwhich' cannot, without
violating some of our beet instincts,
be resisted. There is, or use to be,
a society in tins State which had for
its object the prevention of cruelty
to animals, but it was never active,
and the ' honor of inaugurating the
movement must be given to the edi
tor; of the Southerner.
Nearly every editor of the State,
we believe, is strong for the bill be
fore the legislature, but we are glad
to note so powerful an ally as the
daily Charlotte Obterver.
; While we do not claim superiority
in goodness of heart over other men,
nor do other editors,' so far as we
know, yet we belie W the Legislators
have equally, fine feelings, and that
the bill will become a law under the
management of the kind ' and genial
Geo. Smedes, ' member from Wake,
our! champion.

Bssoz.vzn. . That the convention re

(hr Jarvis im Criminal Courts-
The judges and solicitors of there
courts; should be elected by the Leg
islature, and the salary of the judges
made sufficient to command the ser
vices of the best lawyers. The
judges should be required to hold at
least three courts a year in each
county, with power in some one to
order other terms if necessary. No
court requiring a jury or witnesses,
either civil, criminal, inferior or Su' 1
period should.be held In the month;
of June. ', . Our people are eminently
an agricultural people, and to take a
large number of laborers out of the
fields for a week, as is now done in
many of the countiea in the ' busy
month of June, is a serious injury p
the fanners ox that oouny. : ;
