"Tbe darkest hour is just before day.'' At all events our mothers have told us so, and we believe it. Just before day last Friday night Suaror Faulkuer was spoakv-og on the Force bill, and it was certainly very dark. Even the brilliant West Virgibia Senator could not illumine the acne. But who dare say that dalight Is not j ahead T Ty rauts selves. It always destroy them waa Otfiai's own that whatted tbe dagger of Brutus. Like caases lead to like results, aDd Iiarriaon. Hoar & Co , may profit by the example. For many years ever ninoe tua war tbe Federal Government bas been encroaching upon tbe rights of the States, and year after year the confracted limits of personal liberty are becoming more and I more circumscribed. There is to ; be an end of this, in the near ! future, or freedom in these Staes I will be only a memory "a school boy's tale, tbe wonder of an hour." The, ReDublican party, like a lion at bay, is IgbtiDg desperately, but its days will soon be numbered. The excellent Richmond Diapatoh says : "Sarely the liepublican party ought now to be numbered among these dead parties. And yet the Force bill is intended for no nobler or better purpose than to per petcate the rule of that which is tbe worst party that ever cursed this country. The one object of that bill is to impart new life to this detestable organization. In order to this end the Federal judges are to be converted into partisans and tools ot the Johnny Davenports, aud the process of the United States courts to be prosti tuted to the dirty work of tbe scam of the earth in the cities and the most ignorant and unprincipled partisans in the rural districts, Men without character will set the wheels of the Federal Government in motion to do tbe bidding of knaves and scoundrels, and good men will yield to despair, and, ceasing to try to cure an incurable disease, will turn over the whole conduct of the State as well as the National Government to the scala wags and vagabonds whom the cankers of a long war (from 1861 to th present day) have made aa numerous in this once happy land were the locusts in Egypt in Pharaoh's day." With such a prospect before ns can we say day light is just ahead T Yes. Southern genius framed this Government, and Southern valor achieved American independence. If the temple of our liberties la torn down, we will rebuild the glorious fabric ; not Southern men alone, but American patriots in every State, county, will address restoration of city and hamlet, themselves to the the Union and the re-establishment of the Republic "Re establishment !" Yes. If the Force bill should become a law tbe result of its operation would necea sarily be to change the form of Government framed by our fathers and to transform this precious legacy into a grand, central, con solidated despotism. 'Will Americans submit to such a condition of affairs f "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet as to be purchased at tbe price of chains and slavery P Be assured that when tbe Force bill passes the day breaketh. "Great is Diana oi the Ephesians," but the temple whose oracles have deceived and debauched the people is tottering to its fall, and greit will-be the fall thereof. Tyranny bas bounds that it can. not paaa. Sooner provoke the light ning' fiash,the crash of tbe thunder aad tbe earthquake's shock than the fury of an outraged people. Tbe passage of the Force bill is, or will be, tbe death of tbe Republican party. What then follows! The revival of patriotism ; the quickening of American life; the patting forth of Anglo-Saxon energies to redeem a continent and adorn a world. De livered from tbe npas of Republi canism our trees will bear leaves that shall be for the healing of the nation, and their boughs will bend with tbe golden fruits of industry. The song of the turtle dove will be beard in tbe land ; contentment will smile in the valleys and hills clap their hands with joy. the A elll for the improvement of highways has been drawn by the State Road Commission, of Penn sylvania, which may serve as a suggestion for other States. It provides for road commissioners in every township, under whose direc tlon farmers are to be permitted to work out their road tax, or to pay the tax for the employment of a substitute; and for every mile of improved road constructed by a township the county is to construct another, and the State a third. This puts a premium on energy and promptness.

The ptnairy ior me Moiaiion oi tne law is very severe. 1 he Dill then nnsapil nnaii i mouRl v. Tlale: ?!i Cor. Wilmington Messe'nger. - Tnis bill wa8 m;lde Decf8gary by the conduct of certain emigration agents who came into North Caro- Una and deranged her tabor. It Is not intended to limit the right of any eitia-n of the old North State to leave ber territory, and go wherever bis inclination leads him. The colored people who have, lor the most part been influenced by these agents, are competent to think for themselves, and, being men "the boundless uni vers is theirs'' to enter in and ; possess it. This right has not been abridged j and cannot be. It is an inalienable j right, and all good citizens stand j ready to defend it at the instance of the humblest citizen. Nor is there any wrong in the presenta tion ot tbe advantages of other sections of the country. It is creditable to speak well of one's country, and if any North Caro linian is influenced by the fair presentation of fact? to change his residence and transfer his al legiance to another State, he will carry with him the good wishes ol the friends be leives behind But the professional emigration agent moves on no such elevated plain. By the most insinuating manner and false representations he induces men and women to leave the comforts of home and the associations of friends to be the victims of money 6harks and soul less speculators. It is the duty of the State to protect its people as well from the snares of the despoiler as from violence to their lives and for tunes. But this is not all. Every people is dependent upon well regulated labor for its prosperity. The dia organization of labor means finan cial embarrassment. And especially is this true with regard to agricul tural labor. Emigration agents care nothing for this. They break up the relation of landlord and tenant with the same recklessness that a school boy robs a bird's r.e3t. That the plow is Ufo in its furrow, that the eickle falls beside the golden grain, and the fleecy ttaple is left to rot ia the field is no concern of theirs; but it does concern the State, and action has been taken not one day too soon. How many men, women and cb.il dren are to die in tbe swamps of the Missisiippi or be frozen fn the blizzards of Kansas is none of their business, but It is the business of the State to throw around them the shield of its protection. North Carolina bas been true to ber peo pie in the past and will be in the future. Jones County Items. The farmers have gone to work in earnest preparing for the next year's crop. Seed cotton comes ia sparingly now and commands 2$ cents per pound ; eggs 15 cents per dozen ; corn, 50 cents per bushel. Tbe usual shifting of tenants from one plantation to another has been more numerous this season than asual. All are looking around to better tbeir condition. We learn that agents from the turpentine farms of Georgia are canvassing our county ior bands to go oat and work with them to make turpentine. The indications Lare that but few will go. Wo learn that the hog cholera has made its appearance again in our county. Recollect, farmers, that we have a special law in Jones county compelling the owners of sick hogs to remove all sick hogs where the well ones can't get to them, and bury all the dead hogs. Should any one neglect to do it they are liable to be indicted in the Superior Court. We trust the farmers will see that the law is rigidly enforced in every case. Deladcd gros.

That wuda h called an oyster rock is a mass of shells upon which oysters grow. We offer a few suggestions as to how our oyster laws may Ue im proved. The lavv of the State, as we understand it, provides that no one person thjll lay entry on more than ten acres of grounds lor oys ter planting. This law as well as all others enacted tor the protection of the caster industry iu North Carolina has evaded to nu some men havi; selves (by mea; write; ) of Lu ,:- io ;; violated or :;L- ::iinp' extent !';;:. -e i d them s ui'zuown to the ateas thousands tin.l are having of aciv.3 peihai; the oysters taken up from public grounds and placing them upon these private beds. The result will be within a very s-hi.it time the public beds the oysters :.t 1 i -1 1 grounds owned bv a few individuals aud stock com pan it-,-. The ten acre limit in the abuve mentioned law, as we understand, was to protect the poor man, oysterman and the general public ng.iinst this monopoly. Hence to fecure ; Mil lights to all classes of our citizens ite would propose to so amend the present laws that no person shall hold title to mere than ten (10) acres ot oyster grounds aud further amend said law, so that no Stock company or collection of persons be allowed to hold title to more than ten (10) acres and also that any persons or company's who may have taken advantage of existing laws and have possessed them.selves of a larger area than the ten acres al lowed by law be dis; osnessed of the game that it revert again to the State and become public grounds. And further that any person who may have layed entry on grounds and has tiansferred the same to other parties or has allowed other persons to lay entry in his name be annulled the right of again enter ing or holding title to oyster gar dens. And that no person who has not resided continuously within the State for at least one year be grant ed title to oyster gardens. And further that no person be allowed to tong rake or dredge oysters from public grounds who has not been a resident of the State at least one year ; and that no ves sel of any class or rig be allowed to dredge oysters without a license from the State to do so and that no license be granted to any vessel that is not owned entirely the State.

Oxancock, Va , January 22 The mollusk which had Leen the cause of bo much strife for many years is again tvie breeder of discord. Last night Magistrate Cooper, of Tangier, arrived here, having iu custody five ojbter dredgers atd a numbers of wit negate, the former charted with dredg iap on Old Woman 'a marsh, near Tan gier Ilind, a p'dco Rt aside fi r tongere. Your iepreciitiitive learned that teveral diys ago Capt. Cord bin, of one of the Virginia police boats, detected a number of Maryland dredgers dredg ing on this ground. Ho bore down upon them, but was met by a fusilade, tD which he replied in kicd. The fight waeed became bo warm, and the odds being heavily in favor of the pirates, Capt. Cordbin retreated Oa his retreat he found Captain Foster, of the Virginii police boat Virginia, and they returned to the scene of the late conflict, and they found it deserted by the Maryland boats and overrun by two Tangier Ijlacd dredgers. The police boa bore down upon them and commatded them to surrender, which they did, the result being the capture of five boats. They were taken before Magistrate Cooper, of Tangier Island, who committed them to jail, and brought them here last night. After landing tho pirty marched up town. The five prisoners watching their chance gave tbe magistrate the slip, and going to the docks secured his boat and made off. Norfolk Blues end Pasquotank Rifles. We gave the news about the Patquo tnk Rill 38 le.-iving Elizibeth City for the 6Cne of the oyster troubles, and that a detachment of the Norfolk Light Artillery Blues left Norfolk to join them before leaving, tut we are pleaeed to learn that it was found that the Nor folk Military would not bo needed. Tbe Norfolk Landmark tells what took place thus: Tha orders to the Pasquotant Rifles Were revoked at the last moment, and consequently they did no: leave Tues day night as reported, but yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock. A detachment from the Norfolk Light Artillery Blues cime here on the noon train yesterday under orders and commanded by Cap tain Keeling, but they were met at the dpot by Colonel Wood, who informed them that he had no instructions to re ef iva them and with military politeness Slid that the r services vrculd not be needed. Tno detachment returned to Norfolk in the afternoon. There was some mietnkp about tho orders, ss was evident from a telegram from the Ad-jutant-Oeci r.il. In fact orders all along have teen conflicting. One hour Gov ernor Fowle would telegraph o iters aad th.3 next hour countermand them. Tho artillery was taken on board at 12 o'clock and the steamer Vesper Jay in waitip.g at the foot of Main street. All the anxiety and uncertainty of orders has kept the families and wives cf mem bers of the Paf.q iotant Rifl ;s in a bifjh st.tte of excitement. But tbia was all ucnacesssry. The boys left ia tho bot Of spirits, and it is a fact that no trouble of any charaiter ii apprehended by anybody, except that some foolish sol dier miitht cat too many oysters.
