A. new libel.law has oeen passed, and the newspapers of the State, which have so long labored under an eighteenth contury law Jiiveu at least the justice they de served. The new libel law is as lair to the newspapers as any in the Union, while at the same time, it l stringent enough to prevent mauei ous slander and libel.

Governor Turner was visibly af fected and made a most feeling re ply in part, as follows: He said that on an occasion like this the emotions of the heart were too great to permit the tongue to give full expression to them.

There were two sessions of the Senate today. The morning session was taken up entirely by Judge W. P. Bynum, Jr., counsel for the de fence. He maintained that the prosecution must prove not only a violation or the constitution m is suing a mandamus upon the State treasurer but the violation must be shown to be with willful intent. He tcok the position that the amount due White was not a claim against the State, the suit being in reaUty or the part of the State to compel payment of salarj to an officer, the money as a specific appropriation oemg in the hands of the treasurer for payment. This afternoon Chief Justica Fur ches went on the witness stand. He was under cros;; examination when a reeess was taken at 6 o'clock. He bore himself with great dignity His direct testimony was in justifi cation oi lis co irse on the bench. He testified that in their rulings in office holding cases, the court was not influenced' by any partisan bias, but solely by the law on questions at issue. He said of a dozen or more uilic: holding cases passed upon by the court they decided a large ma jority in favor cf Democratic parties to suits tne cross examination was by J-mes 11. Pou. Esq.

C, vs. Coler, involving the validity of bonds issued by Wilkes county in aid of the North western, North Carolina Railroad, in 1899. under State laws passed in 1868, 1879 and 1881. The principal question involved was whether the united States Court, in passing up on the case,'should accept ' the con struction of the State Supreme Court in the matter. Justice Harlan, handed down Ihe court's opinion holding the State's construction to be binding. The State courts had held thct under the State constitution, a yea and nav vote by the Legislature iu authoriz ing the indebtedness was mandatory. Such a course had not beeu pursued in authorizing the bonds, and the contention was made that it. was im material. The effect of to-day's de cision is opposed to the validity of the bonds. They're After Pie. Col. Olds writes: 'Governor Aycock just now is like the young bear his troubles are all to t-omtT Wait until the office seekers get af ter him those people who want Judgeships, solicitorships and vari ous and sundry other kinds of 'pie.

E&leigU Correspondence Atlanta Constitution In 18G4 the authorities of this State prepared two sets of books'1 ihe-!" Roll of Honor," containing the names of soldiers in the confederal service who did their duty and more: i.d tbe "Black List," in which -ere the names of deserters. TI-.p 'Roil of Honor" is all preserved, but only one volume of the list is in the State's hands, and this was found in the possession of a privatp citizen during the past two or three weeks, l here was good reason to steal the ten "Black List" books, to hide shame and disgrace. It is found that in the book in hand are me names oi cwenty-ftve men who draw pensions and have drawn them for years. Some of them who de serted from i he Confederate army joined the Federals, then, deserted again, and forming in bands, built strongholds in the mountains," from which they swooped down r-d dep redated upon th countrj unda bout.
