The public lnterprises sboba built up during this peiion are sufficient to mark her as one ot the most progressive young (?) to us m western Nonh Carolina. Stie is nevr called upon to sanction n new enterprise that she does not respond most heartily; and not -only S-). out she does not merely sanction but her enterpiismg citi-' zen who have the means come tor-1 ward at ou.;e and oner to piauh. dowu the cash as well as to give their names and their signatures m order to furtuer tbe cause of said euteiprise- If this action weie true only m one iustauce, it would not be worthy ol remark, for such could be shown in almost any town, but wheu in the course of two years or A little more, at leat 4 such instan ces cau be shown, it ss worthy of note and should inspire pride not only within the breasts of our citi eas, but should awaken satisfaction to tbe people both of county and even the entire State ! Not ever two years ago, if out n:e.m ory fails cot. the town went to work and established a system of water works, such as is uucclipsed in Western North Carolina, So thoroughly was this enterprise cars ried out and so perfect is the water system that it requires but the turn ing ot tbe screw at tbe hydrant aud tbe application, of tbe fire engine to insure the extinction of any fire. Indeed so complete and so formid able is tbe system that tbe fire god himself would not pre sume to attempt to do business iu our town, knowing that failure would be certain ! Soon after this rapid stride in tbe forward march of public enterprise was brought to focus, tho dpirit ot progress was enkindled in a manner not to be stilled ; and within the period of al most no time at all, the scheme of building: a 515,000 summer hotel, under the name and title cf the North State Hotel was planned, snd rut little sooner planned than com pleted. So thoroughly convinced were some of oar citizens of meaus that the next thing for Lincolnton as a fiue new hotel, that they sim. planked down the cash and the; o'd Lincolnton hotel has been re placed with an edifice that is a cred it ro western North Carolina I S i miner visitors (and winter one's t.) for that mattei) are attracted beie by the huudreds, so much so? a to astonish tbe stockholders be- j treasure. !

Ordinarily this kind of institution inquires an act ot the General Amenably granting an election: But in this inaiaDce 3' enterprising are our penp'e and so unanimously are they in favor of ;his movement that the General As- j mblv 1AVe been prevailed upon j that where there is such unanimity as here it is uoneccessrry to hold an election, and that Body has de c (led, so we are informed, that no elctic) vrili br ordered!

The Gekeral Assembly has de feated tbe bill to repeal the present hemestead law.

Tho K-ileign papers report Dr. Orouse as making an earnest effort for the r:ad law. For ibu he deserves liaise.

The most important bill before the 1 e.slature is the State bank- iug bill. Yonr correspondent gives yon a summary of it. Its tlt'o is The State Banking law." It pro vides for a banking department at whose head is a comptroller, with $3,000 salary, who is to be appoint- ed by the Governor ia case the Legislature is not in 'session when it ia necessary to make the apoinN ment. All banks are to have on band always iu lawful United States money 10 per cent, ol depsits, this to be the "lawfnl money reserve," half ot which may be on deposit with any bank approved by the comptroiler. The State can sabs scribe one.-third the capital sto-k ot the banks, this subscription to be in State bonds. Tbe State will is sue 84,000,000 of 50 year 4 per cent, bonds, to be known as "banking bonds," ttf $300 denomination. At least 50 per cent, of the capital .stock nut be paid in before the bank c-uj beein business and the remains ler in 5 months after the back is authorized to begio. The S'aie hall have one-third tbe directors n each bank in which it has stock ; j the Governor to appoint these. Tbe lockhokiers are to be individually iesponsibie for twice the amosnt of heir stock. Any of these banks 'an deposit with the comptroiler .-ii:y lawful United Stages money or rocks find bonds (interest bearing) of the Uuifed States or North C-ir. olina ct coupon notes to run lor not les than 5 years, secured bv mort iage on productive unencumbered real property in this State, assessed for taxation 10 per cent, more than tlse amount ol subscription, no 3" 8to ni93 &c. to be re winded by the comptroller at above par value or whose valoe is not equal to par; not more than one third of such notes to he based on real estate. Upon the deposit of such stocks, conds, notes, etc., the comptroller oan issue to the bank circulating actes, properly engraved, the ag gregate amount not to exceed the 3niv-o pM.ivnp capital on the par j M,aM of tbe s-cunties deposited j .v.tn the comptroller. Tn-se seen .ties ate to be Ldd by the comp voiler a11 security for said circnlat itg notes, to the payment aud re demption of which the State's faith i ;s pledged. Tbe banks are to have a redemption a.gency at Raleigh, for ihe redemption ot all circulating notes issued by it or them. A bank failing to pay its noces on demaud is to pay the person making tbe demand interest at 24 per cent- per annum. The comp troller has power to appoint receiv ers for banks. Notes not receivable at par aie not to be paid out. Tbe bankiug law is to take effect after Congresg repeals the bank tax, and in 90 days after such action by Congress the people of the State will vote on two questions: First, as to whether the 50 year 4 per cent, bauking bonds shall be issued, to be only a basis to secure the circulating notes of banks and indi vidual bankers organized under this act. Second, shall the State guar antee the payment of said notes in tbe lawful money of the United S-ates, in default of payment by the bank or banker issuing them. This bill has passed final reading iu tbe House, and is now before the Senate. Another special order was the bill to amend the constitution by reducing the homestead to 300 and the personal property exemption to $200. There was no discussion. The Tote was yeas, 43 ; nays, 50, So the bill failed to pas?. Tbe Kou9e committee on counties this eveuing Leaid tbe argument ol the Senate bill to create tbe county of E'kin and after a three hour&' consideration decided almost unan imously to report the bill unfavora- bly to-morrow. ;- Odj one committeeman voted for tlie bill.

Another caucus was held this afternoon ; this time on the election law, and not on the public printing. Although the Senate has adopted a resolution to adjourn March 4, the House has taken no action re garding that matter. Some mem bers said to-day that they did not believe there woold be an adjourn ment before the 10th or 11th of Mar?:b. A bill was to-day introduced in the House to reduce by oue-baif the St'te Guard appropriation. It w;!l net pass. The Legislature can n f afford to cut dowu the State Gnard one half, aid yet that is tbe avowed purpose ot the bill. The Senate committee on ngri culture has been giving very care ful consideration to the bit! to repeal the Alliance charter. Li cigtit a conference was held at which sever. a! other Senators were present, as wp.ll a Democrat of pronrnence h iding or not holding oHjcp. This confeit-noe decided upon a substi- tute for the repeal bi!!, which, a fter a careful scrunity by able lawyers :s said to give full effect to the pur pose of tbe bill which pissed the House, while not repealing the -barter.

The ratification of the Hawaiian annexation treaty is now considered doubtful, &o doubtful Jhat Mr, Har ri son's? friends in the Senate are afraid to have it voted upon, lest it be rejected, Tbe democrats, while not all opposed to annexation, are almost to a man opposed to ratifying this treaty at this time.
