Event sometimes oocnr well calcu lated to arouse indignation in t lie breaata of the virtaoua and the good, but governments should al ways preserve their serene majesty and never display jxtty annoyance or malignant passion. The Kritish Government usually maintains m equilibrium, and move with deliberation and dig nity, but it sometimes exhibits the fretfulnesa of a spoilt child, and brings uon itself the contempt of nations. The British Irish jvohcy is a re proach to Kngland.

PRATER. j Oar ia a Christian people, and, in accordance with the sentiment of the time, tbe Congress of tbe United State and the Legislature of tbe Stater, are usually opened with prayer. Thi is right, and commends itself to the approval of mankind. Hut there is too mach of the form of Godliness, and too little ol thirty-two tbe spirit of holmes. Mr. Milburn, tbe blind man eloquent, is now chaplain to tbe House of Representatives at Wash ington, lie is a gilted speaker, and Is ccredKed a man of de cidea piety, un more than one occasion he ha.s bten accused of "addressing a throne of grace" on political questions, with the hope of influencing the action ol the House. A party harangue in a prayer addressed to God is a sac rilege, alike revolting to Christi ans and repolsive to the refined sensibilities of non professor. A few days ago the chaplain cf the N'ew York Senate took occasion in his prayer to denounce the Democratic party for it election fraud and general corruption. A soon a he finished his unpious assault. Senator Grady aroee in bis place and entered a igoroas protest against so "base a prostita- ! tioa of the holv sacrament of prayer." If Congresses and General As temblies are to b opened with prayer, let it te reverently done, w'th a just appreciation of the lanctity of religioo. It is appropriate for a people to acknowledge a u(rintendmg Providence, and niaie confeasiona and supplication to the Rnlr of Co. vers, but let It be dond as be i eomci the crrattirt :n the rresence of th1 Creator, and as a sinner kneeling IWort the mercy se,r. r.u! is thire uot a kindred fault the iloor of maavof tb'-s? who the prostitution of its judiciary, and the countenance its gives to injustice, mendacity and treachen It is useless to attempt the, severance of the Ixindon Timea and the Hritish Government. In the1 peraecution of Ireland, and the prosecution of TarneM they are one and inseparable. In the better days of Kngland it would have been calumny to charge that the Hritish Government would 1 attempt the conviction of members j of Parliament upon the testimony ! of convicted felons, confessed con spirators, spiea and villains. But such is the present situation. The Parnell Commission has de throned Hritish justice and estab lished a judiciary more infamous than the Spanish Inquisition, more monstrous than tb despotism of Nero. Hut, the American Government , does not always maintain it high j honor and command the respect j of foreign powe. Lord Sackville ; Weat did an nnwarantable act - which it waa the duty of the Gov ernment to resist, but it was no oc- j caaion for tbe display of passion, 1 much leas for the flourish of tram-! pet and the drawing ol sword. Germans invaded Samoa, and this Government at once assumed the championship of the beleaguered islanders and prepared for war with Germany ; but, when the facts in the caae became known, and the position cf Germany was under stood, there wa nothing to disturb the peace of nations, or to material ly affect the amicabls relations that have so happily existed between Germany and the 1'nited States neglected part of a grand common wealth, and North Carolina be honored and ii.anilied the Ex posit ion.

Prayer by Rev. L I.. 'a-h of t e 1 1 y . .Mr. .Means introduced a bill to amend the Constitution in relation ! to the homestead exemption. Ir! provides lor a new section to be as! follows : i See. ;i. The right of exemption hereinbefore secured may be waived j in writing. The waiver may be: stated in any contract of indebted-j ness, or contemporaneously there- with, or prior or subsequently1 thereto, in a separate paper. When I such waiver relates to the home- stead exemption it must be signed ' by both husband and wife, under; such provisions as may be cstab lished by the legislature." This bill was introduced to occupy the middle ground between the en- ; tire abolition of t he homestead and personal property exemption, and the present condition of a flairs, as a means to enable the poor man to get such credit as t he property now exempt to him would enable him to get if it were not encumbered by thee constitutional exemptions. I'll K CALENDAR wa-; taken up and the following bills passed their third reading-: Hill to amend chapter :!) of the Code, in relation to selecting juries for Superior Courts : bin to regulate and limit the levy of spe cial taxes, so as Dot to exceed ten per cent of the assessed valuation of t he property so taxed. A bill to amend the charter ol the Norfollv and Southern Railroad Company on its second reading, was met with some objections, and the discussion thereon took a wide range. The bill provides for the extension of the road from F.den'on to some point on the South Carolina line. Amendments to really make the bill inoperative were submitted. Mr. Williams, of Pitt, submitted an amendment that the bill bhould uot Carolina properly represented at the George Washington inaugura tiqa.ietttewuaL.wa9 met with the j spirit of economy : an amendmlfiT was adopted reducing the amount to jOO, when, on its second read ing, it failed to pass ayes 9, noes Rill to incorporate Edwards' .Mills in Beaufort county passed second reading. The committee on Governor's mansion was authorized to send for persons and papers and to swear witnesses. A resolution was introduced by Mr. Aycock to investigate railroads and other corporations which re fuse and fail to pay taxes. It provides that the committee may sit daring recess of the General Assembly, employ clerical assis tance, send for persons and papers and swear witnesses, and shall submit to the General Assemby all testimony taken before if.

SECRETARY BAYARD A5D I'OXSl'I. UEXERAL SEWALL. While Mr. Bayard has not shown himself to be a maater of diplo macy, he baa proven himself to be an honest and painstaking Cabinet Minister. In the discharge of his duties, as Secretary of State, he has seen proper to aek the resignation of Mr. Sewall, Consul-General at Samoa. The Secretary bases his action upon the fact that the views ef Mr. Sewall are not in accord with thoee of the Government in regard to the Samoan affairs. Republican Senators charge that this dismissal from the public service is on account of statements made by the Consul, before a com mi tree of the Senate, at a time when he waa giving his testimony, under oath, in regard to the condition of affairs in the Samoan Islands. They say, "Bayard turned out Sewall because he told the truth." This is unfair to the Secretary. How could Sewall give higher evidence of his opposition to tbe policy of the administration than is furnished in his testimony before the Senate committee! Whether Sewall told the truth or not is not at issue. The question is, "is he in a eondition to render this coun try the most efficient service in carrying out the design of the Government in Samoa T" If he is not, then his dismissal was a duty whicb the Secretary of State had no right to avoid. If any administration has a right to learn by experience it is the Cleveland udmlnistration, and if there is one truth more clearly eiablished by its experience than another, it is the folly and madness of retaining men in office who are opposed to the administration. Mr. Cleveland and his Cabinet have shown remarkable dullness in this matter. An earlier discovery would have Ixen favorable to their indi vidual fortunes, ani far better for 1 Creat as the country. wort by j No government has the right to ; ot the position to which tney nave do en cnosen, naving mane ar rangements to have all county current expenses cashed on presen tation. We learn that a timber raft has nearly demolished the Stanley bridge just above Trenton. We notice that a raft has struck Tren ton bridge and broken out a part Some odc ought to be responsible for this negligence. Someone here has given out the report among the colored people up here that President elect Harrison has tendered a fiee passage on all railroads and steamers to all that desire to attend his inaugural on the 4th of March next. How ridi colons yet many are willing to be lieve it is all true. Hog cholera is raging iu the Pinev Grove section, the same cholera that killed the hogs in Trentou township last summer and fall, for I have noticed and enquired after its course. We trust our present Legislature will pass some stringent laws compelling farmers to bury and remove all the sick oues from the well ones. When they do this farmers will find that hog cholera can be managed among hogs like small pox or any other contagions diseases among human beings.

Sweet poet, solemn-voiced and diamond eyed. Good Lirlngr and (he Brain. It is a common opiuion that good, or rather high living is the principal cause of dyspepshi; but while the quantity aod quality of oar food and the manner of eating it doubtless has much to do w ith the behavior of our stomachs, the state of our braius has fully us mach or more influence. Some of the most healthy people eat as mach of any and all things as they desire without consulting any dietetic rules; and others who pay great attention to their diet are the victims of dyspepsia; but in most of these cases it will be found that these people take but little exercise and over-work their braius in read ing, writing and the anxious pur suits of business. They sit down to a meal with minds absorbed nnd preoccupied to such an extent that they cannot tell 6vq minates after eating what they ate, or whether they have eaten at all; and then i they nigh off to their business or I literary work, thus divesting from! the itomach to the brain the energy which should be concentrated on. the stomach for the performance of its digestive functions. The brain being the source and fountain of all , nervous influence, the organ whicb controls all the functions of the body, it is not strange that people should be dyspeptic when the blood and nerve.forces which should be concentrated to the utomach are ! divested to the brain. One of the most important rules for the avoidance and care of dys pepsia is, to eat with a quiet rniiid, and then to rest quietly lor an hour or two after eatirjg. This simple rule with a reason able regard to the quantity ol'fuod, will cure many cases of dspep'o;i. j It has beeu truly said that head- workers need more rest than hand workers: and that three hours of hard brain work are more exhaus tive to the energies than a whole day of ordinary manual labor. Therefore above everything else, brain workers need sleep, sleep through the whole night, and a nap in the day, especially after dinner. This is in accordance with nature as is manifested by the habits of the lower animals, which lie down and sleep after eating. Atlantic & N. 0, Railroad Co.

Never begin a journey until tbe breakfast has been eaten. Never take warm drinks and then immediately go out into the cold. Keep the back, especially be tween the shoulder blades, well cov ered; also the chest well protected. In sleeping in a cold room establish a habit of breathing through the nose, and never with the month open. Never go to bed with cold or damp feet. Never omit regular bathing, for unless the skin is in active condi tion the cold will close the pores and favor congestion and other dis eases. After exercise of any kind, never ride in an open carriage or near the window of a car for a moment; it is dangerous to health or even life. When hoarse, epeak as little as possible until the hoarseness is re covered from, else the voice may be permanently lost, or difficulties of the throat be produced. Merely warm the back by the fire, and never continue keeping the back exposed to the beat after it has become comfortably warm lo do otherwise is debilitating. When going from a warm atmos phero into a cooler one, keep the month closed, so that the air may be warmed in its passage through tne nose ere it reaches the lungs. Never stand still in cold weather, especially after having taken a slight degree of exercise, and al ways avoid standing on ice or snow, or wnere tne person is exposed to cold wind.
