the least important. 1 refer to the
fish exhibit. The interests of tins
great industry are shown in the
most practical and intelligent way.
Mounted specimens of the more
abundant food fishes are bring on
screens, and accompanying them
are photographs of the fisheries,
net.s, boats and other implements ot
capture. This is the finest, by all
. odds, of the fish displays, not ex
chiding the Smithsonian collection.
The latter is more extensive, yet the
individual .specimens will not bear
comparison. Along with the tish
collection many natural history
specimens are show n, and the.-e in
clude the more abundant of the
game fowls which haunt onr ,-hores.
Inscriptions are vague and un

A number of amendments were

bill were ex
tended to those who lost "an eye :
although the proposition was op
posed on the gioiind that to add -o
many to the roll would greatly re
duce the amount each pensioner
would receive.
Mr. Overman moved to add an :
additional section, making it a
misdemeanor for any one to pur-,
chase or speculate in the allowance ;
any one might, be entitled to under!
this bill. This was carried. j
Mr. Pariingei' moved to strike;
out the provision for pensioning the!
negroes. He said the white men
in North Carolina hud never for
gotten to embrace the colored men I
in every bene icial provision made!
in the cause of humanity. The ne-j
groes embraced in this bill were not
soldiers. We are rewarding the1
soldiers of this State. We have!
done everything possible to elevate :
the negroes: but now when theyi
stand here solidly opposing this'
measure it is proper to strike this!
provision out. He made some elo-!
quent and forcible remarks in sup-'
port of his motion.
Mr. Dixon said that he did not
think that the Republicans on this'
floor represented the policy and
sentiment of that party. They
were narrow-minded. NVe will re
tain this provision in the bill
against the wishes of the Republi
cans here.
Mr. Ward ici said that it was
not right to tax the poor negroes to
support the white soldiers. As far
as educating the negroes is con-i
cerued, they had wanked lor the!
white man more than two centu-
ries and it would only be light to i
educate the negroes lor the next I
eight generations. He would x'otei
against the bill.
Mr. Thorpe (o said when the,
gentlemen impose these taxes upon
the poor people of North Carolina, 1
instead of reading the burial ser
vice of the Republican party, they 1
are making the coffin of the Demo-,
cratic party. He opposed the bill
on principle. He was not in favor j
of taxing one set of men for the:
benefit of another.
.Mr. Cale c,i said he had been
one ot the first to throw dirt on
Roanoke Island. He had stood by:
the first gun fired at Hatteras. He !
was a property owner, and paid

Mr. 1 tin kill said t hel e We! c t holl-
sands and thousands of acres of
'land in the. east belonging to the
' State, which could be made ex
tremely fertile by drainage and
which would relieve taxation. He
was not able, and thought no com
mittee could state the expenses.
He thought it would be crippling
the enterprise to set a fixed sum.
The motion to refer was lost. The
amendments proposed by the com
mittee were adopted. Mr. Rower
withdrew his amendment.
Mr. Cooper moved an amend
ment provided thst there be 150
convicts available, and not other
wise appropriated according to
existing laws. Mr. Cooper with
diew his amendment. Passed its
t bird reading.
Rill to amend the Code in regard
to the entry ot public lands.
Mr. Alexander said that fully
one-third of the public lands of the
State was worth one dollar an acre.
Messrs. Rower and Todd dis
cussed the bill.
Mr. Graham said if this bill passes
a great wrong will be done to the
people of North Carolina.
Mr. l'oole said there seemed to
be a misapprehension, in regard to
the State lauds. This law does
not apply to the swamp aud Chero
kee lands of the State. So far as
these State lands are concerned he
thought it was a local matter. As
a matter of right and justice to the
people who live in that section, he
thought the price ought to be re
stored to what it was formerly.
Mr. Graham said that in the
county of Swain G!J,400. acres wTere
taken up not long ago.
Mr. Poole moved to amend that
this bill shall not apply to the
swamp lands of the State.
Mr. Cooper thought that North
Carolina was engaged in fighting
North Carolina even to the teeth.
Mr. "Williams hoped that as far
as those little vacant spots of land
among the swamps of the east were
concerned, he hoped they would
not be included under the opera
tion of the bill.
Mr. Alexander said if there was
any fault committed in regard to
the price ot the land it was done
by the Code committee, and not by
the commission.
The a3"es and noes being called,
there were ayes 24 noes 13. Passed
its third reading.
On motion of Mr. Cowan, the
Senate adjourned.

'!:. Woiiml cofiuieuded r.il
iiftiy. Imt saiil the law is well set
thai Nov. . In the case of the State
vs. Olivt'i, tritiil in 1870, Oliver un
dertook to whip his wife. The old
law is not in force in this State.
No husband has a right to whip his
wife, but the court will not take
notice of cases where there is no
violence.
An amendment was offered by
Mr. Henderson, that if a woman
whips her husband she shall be
subject to the same penalty. This
passed. i
Mr. Robinson said: "This ques-1
tion is peculiarly within the domain j
of the legal gentlemen. The man
who whips his wile ought to be !
punished as much as if he had
whipped another man. The wife is
a help-mate of the husband, aud
the party who is to control the
raising and religion of the children.
A recent case where a man whipped
his wife was dismissed by the
supreme court. The policy of theN
law ought to be clearly denned.
Mr. Rarringer said: The law is j
now exactly correct, it now is as
if this bill were passed the legal
right to indict a man is different
from the punishment. The court
decides that the legal right to indict
exists. The court says that a hus
band has no right to chastise his
wife under any circumstances. Rut
when a man is indicted the punish
ment is in the discretion of the
court.
Mr. Overman said that tho law
was sufficiently definite now, and
moved to table the bill. Mr. I'ou
moved to adjourn. This the House
refused to do. The bill was then
put to a vote and failed to pass
ayes 3S, nays 42.

It is said that the originator of tho
Concord grape has raised over 20.000
seedlings in the past thirty-five yeais
without finding his ideal grape, and
only twenty -ppe had desirable qualities.
The richest C.hihaman in America is
Ah Ti of L& Porte, Cal., w ho is worth
.52.000.000.- He made money mining,
and will repair to the Flowery King
dom'to enjoy it as soon as his business
can be settled up.
To a Philadelphia note of re joicing
that "the Liberty bell's trip is through
the States where slaves no longer serve. ' '
a Southern paper retorts: "The old bell
would toll if it had to pass through Fall
river or the Hocking Valley. "
While praying during a recent storm,
says the Natchez (Miss.) JJaily Demo
crat, "old Katie Hightower, who has
been blind for fifteen years, had her
sight suddenly restored, and can now
see as well as when a child. "
Klotz. the lumber man of Shasta, Cal.,
ha.s a big slab pile he has been accumu
lating for years, which is to be fired on
the night of the 3d of March, in honor
of the inauguration of President Cleve
land. He thinks the blaze will be seen
100 miles away.
The Palatka ( Fra. ) Herald says: "A
man and family afrived here one day
last week; the nzt morning he paid
i?4"i0 for a lot, and that evening he had
a ehanty erected, a stove put up. and lie
and family slept in it that night. This
man was from Maine."
In Des Moines the number of saloons
has increased from CO to 102 since the
so-called " 'prohibition" went into effect.
As these sellers have no license to pay.
they can stand an occasional confisca
tion of stock, which is kept low in ex
pectation of such emergencies.
Divorces are becoming fashionable in
Scotland. Last year eighty -nine petitions
were granted, being the largest number
on record. The highest number of de
crees in anv previous year was eighty
one in 1S-0. The average number for
the ten years before 1 S76 was only thirty
five. A lady whose husband had contracted
a club lever hit upon a brilliant scheme
recently. She procured a partly-worn
gentleman's glove and left it on the
Litirlor sofa when she retired, after sit
ting up until 12 o'clock for
lord. He does not go out
her absent

nines now.
Twenty Parisian duellists are organ
izing a club under the name of La Flani
beice. whose members must all have
fought fit bust one (fuel. The head
quarter of the club is at the Cafe Riche.
and. considering the large number of
combatants in the field of private honor,
no doubt the association will not want
for recruits.
To counteract the clfoct of a dose of
I'oifon accidentally administered to a
man. near BeattyviLle. Ky., there being
no emetic remedy on hand, a woman
thought the nicotine found in a pipe

broke an oi l stem, scraped out the in
side, and gave it to the patient, who
died in ten minutes.
A verv simple contrivance but at the
