The New York World agues in favor of repealing the tax which inhibits issues of Stated currency. ..The World, ofte wrong in its financial views," is right here. Iet it continue in well doiii. "The New "England anU the Middle States," ab- scrves our contemporary, "can and will "provide for themselves safe banks if Con "gross leinovcs the restriction and the "nation uplifts this heavy hand of taxa tion." Just as true as words can be. That u the position occupied by nearly every- oouy iiuwu iiiis way. ioi, oniy can me ...... x'i .1 Northern States provide safeguards but it can be done throughout the South. It will he necessary of course to prevent wild cat banking, such as we had in many States 1) "fore the war. A s -regards the sections mentioned by the World that, paper further remarks that ( "they had good hanks in 1861 so good '"tint many think tho.se banks could, as then confederated, have c trried the nation "through the war, saved the country from depreciated paper and from quite one-half our present-' debt, had not Secretary Chase "been induced by bad advisers to issue the "demand notes and to refuse to' use the Clearing-House, for (Jovernment payments "as Congress had authorized. These con ' "federated banks did, however, furnish one "hundred and fifty millions to an empty "national ti usury, and they were driven ' "into-sii-pensit n of specie payments seven- "teeiii vearx v.vo: not bv faults of their nwn. "but chiefly because Mr. Chase demanded "gold for the last fifty millions, which did "not return to the banks as the hundred "millions had returned." The - World and we can hardly agree on tlu National currency question, but we are unanimous on State banks of issue. THE STATE DEBT. Every consideration of interest as well as of honor moves the Legislature at its ap proaching session to arrange for the settle' ment of the State debt. There is no question which will come before that body of equal importance. Call it sentiment call it hysterics what you will there s'8 no solid prosperity in store for this people us lonr as their solemn obligations remain unfulfilled, and no effort is made to fulfi them even in the remote future. The people of North Carolina are poor, in property, but we trust they are rich enough in' spirit' to do right. They are privately, and as a commonwealth, heavily in debt. Some of their creditors have clamored for settlement There is little to settle with. There is ncf great encour agement that in the immediate future there will be much mere. But we can say so again through our representatives in the Legislature. We ean ask for an adjust ment of the debt oil such a reasonable basis as will enable the State to pay a part of the interest soon. The principal can and should by agreement be cut down consider ably. Time should be given for payment of the interest. The bonds ought to run for long periods, and the rate of interest ought to be low. The Slx offers no plan. Years ago its editor favored a compromise with the creditors of the State on a basis of some six millions or six millions and a half North Carolina could hardly do more without breaking up all the industries in the. State, and putting up at public auc tion nearly all the lands and personal property of her people. The creditor should be genereas. The Sun -would not have the people to use the language of the Virginia readjust era, and tell him he must whittle his claim down to nothing and wait forever to get it paid. The right course is to make the creditor feel that the people are anxious to have the matter adjusted on an equitable basis. North Carolina cannot afford to bluster over her poverty while creditors are around willing to compromise ; neither, we should think, could creditors afford to in , suit and oppress an honorable people who desire, but are unable, to pay their debts in full. Creditor and debtor should meet in the friendliest spirit and arrange for a settlement which would do honor to the hearts of both. As long as this vexed matter lies open the people of North Carolina ; in the esti mation of the world sustain a hurt, of the full extent of which we perhaps are not as yet conscious, but which will be felt acutely in the bye-and-bye. No people in the world are more honest than North Carc-; linians when rightly understood. The atti tude of our people in this matter is miscon strued. They are really in favor of adjust ing the debt, but their representatives hare been too timid. There is a fear that if taxation is increased the people cannot IP'1 Mm itand the pressure. The answer is plain : he people are not dishonest. They are burdened nearly as much as they can bear already, it is true, but a men revenue bill could be framed that would not be oppres sive, which indeed would not materially in crease toe burden. The subject is one for profound reflec tion. Lt the resolution U do what is right in the premises be formed now, and in all probability the means for carrying the resolution into execution will be pre Tided by the wisdom ( the hour thus mor ally illumined. Virginia is in a condition similar to that of North Carolina: Jler Governor in his annual messige to the Le gislature, manfully recommends the settle ment of the debt by increase of taxation. This document is the product of a states man. It abounds it practical suggestions, and its tone is as high as that of any state paper published in "recent years. North Carolina, like Virginia, is a great State with an untarnished fame and an illustri ous history. She cannot, as was said above, stand effortless before her duty in this matter. Too long has the bugbear of inability frightened our General Assem blies from their obvions duty. The people call on the Legislature to make a detec- mined effort to do something with the debt ibis winter. PERMONAL parauiapiin.

Senator Johnston, of Virginia, through still sick, occupies his seat. He laughs at the rnmor that Congressman CJoode's elec tion will oe contested by Dezendorf.

A dispatch from Towanda, Pa., says that Nelson Vanderpool, a half-breed In dian residing in that vicinity, chiimsto have Charlie Boss in his possession. Chris tian K, Ross arrived in Towanda, from Philadelphia, Tuesday night, and left yes terday morning, in company with Vander pool, for a place nine miles distant, to ir vestigate the matter. Kearney in San Francisco. San Franeiiico Call, Xov.27, ahortetud. Dennis Kearney, his wife, two children and brother Tim arrived in Sacramento just before noon yesterday. The working men's delegates to the convention received him rousingly, but he tarried not, and put into Oakland at 4 p. m. Hundreds of citizens ("workingmen"), headed by Mayor 'Andrus, met and dined him at Maurice's. There was a bras3 band, and the dinner was bounteous. After dinner Deunis walk ed arm-in-arm with the Mayor to the Court nouse. There he made a speech, begin ning: "First let me sound the battle-cry of 'The Chinese mut go.' the lecherous bond holder mnst go and the bloated monopolist must go." Arrived in 'Frisco, Dennis took a landau at.the depot and waited the arrival of the workingmen." His carriage was sur rounded by hundreds. He was enveloped in the well-known blue cape coat and with a black slouch hat. worn a la militaire. The procession arrived at 8:20. Dennis was received with shouts, and his landau, drawn by dapple grays, moved off toward' the Sand Lot. The;arriages were numer ous, and the ward clubs, which carried torches, were in full ranks and full enthu siasm. The line of march was packed with a living mass of people. It took the pro cession itself .twenty minutes to pass a given point. At the Sand Lot the multi tude choked every corner. Many women and children filled the air with shrieks, and several came near being crushed to death. As it was they were lifted bodily above the heads of the mass, and rested there until the meeting adjourned. Round after round of cheers was given. Wellock made a glowing address of welcome, and then Dennis advanced. The air was filled with rockets and red lights. The jam grew worse.' Kearney laid, "The Chinese must go," at which there was tremendous cheer ing. Ho "excused himself from a speech, as he was worn out with travel, but promised to recount his experience in the East on Sunday. The crowd dispersed with cheers. A Suit tor Stephen Girard'tt Es tate. The suit of the heirs of Stephen Girard against the city of Philadelphia was called for argument Tuesday, in the Court 'of Common Pleat of that city. The action involves property worth a vast amount of money, aggregating many millions of .dol lars, the claim of the plaintiffs agaiust the city being for nothing less than all the real estate in Philadelphia eWned by Stephen Girard at the time of ike death, and the repayment to them of all) the surplus in come on this valuable property for the past twenty years, over and above the expenses of running Girard College. Sevetj of the plaintiffs are citizens of France, and a like number reside in Pennsylvania, all of them being theheirs-at-law of Girard. j The plain tiffs' bill alleges that the real estate in question (which is yet in possession of the city) was, under the terms of the will of the testator, devised to the city in trust for the purposes of a charity in certain contin gencies, and in the event of the devise fail ing; to his . heirs-at-law and next of kin. The till declares that the contiagencies'on .which, the property could have been vested for the charity, have failed, Ac, and that plaintiffs are entitled to the possession, &c The defendants demurred that the extracts of the will presented in plaintiffs' bill do oet purport to be the entire will, or such par ts thereof as were material to the case. . The ceurt decided to sustain the de murrer without argument, when the case could be immediately taken to the Supreme Court, and obtained from Mr. Brewster, representing the city, a promise to state to the Supreme Court that the decree was merely pro forma.

P. t 1: i TO THE DEMOCItATIC.COXSERYA. TIVE PARTY OF NORTH -CAROLINA. The State Executive Committee congratu lates the Democratic-Conservative party ot North Carolina upon the result of the recent Congressional elections at the North. These elections clearly indicate three things which arc of consequence to us : First, that the peo ple of this country are dissatisfied with-the Republican party aud are unwilling for the Republican leaders to afflict us longer with their ruinous measures and fraudulent prao t ces. Second, that the Nationals do not mutt with popular favor, and, as a separate organi zaliou, have utterly failed to impress them selves upon the country ; and lastly, that the star of the Democratic party is still in the ascendant, and the people are looking to tin; party as the only one capable of restoring prosperity to the country, and able to admin ister the. government on those Constitutional and just principles, which are essential alike, to the happiness of our citizens and to the ' perpetuity ol our institutions, ihus in the elections held in eight States the Republicans have lost twelve members of Congress ; the Nationals have elected four ; and the Demo crats have elected twenty-three, and have gained seven. - These facts demonstrate that the people in tend to invest the Democratic party with the full control of the National Government. The Senate of the next Congress will be Democratic by a considerable majority, and it is only necessary for the Democrats of the South to remain steadfast in their allegiance to our or ganization, and our triumph will be complete. It is for. us to determine whether the banner on which are inscribed Reconciliation, Home Rule and Financial Reform, 6hali trail in the dust, or shall be borne on to victory. Every consideration of interest, ol policy arid of patriotism then urges us to prepare imtnesiately for the approaching political struggle. Be assured, fellow-citizens, that without preparation, it will be impossible to achieve success. Let us i.ot by our apathy, our kike warm ness and indifference postpone the accession' to power ol that party which alone has been able to check Republican corruption and to arrest the progress of oer government towards a centralized despotism. Let us be steadfast ia our devotion to prin ciple, true to our organization and endeavor by every means to discountenance those inde pendents and disorganizers who oppose our worthy standard-bearers freely and fairly chosen by the Democratic party in Convention assembled. , In particular do we desire to repeat what we have so often urged the. necessity of thorough local organization. It is the town sh'p committees who are charged with the riiit important of all party duties. To them is committed the duty of supervising the election, and of devising means to bring out every Democratic' voter to the polls. TLey ougbt to meet frequently and advise aud take counsel together how best to promote the for tunes of that party, on w hose success depends so largely the prosperity of themselves and ol their posterity. In every township, in every neighborhood, there ought to be appointed a committee of active; efficient, and prudent party men, who will undertake to see that every Democrat in the precinct comes to the polls and easts his ballot for ( our nomlnece. We therefore urge this upon the township committees; and if in any township it is ne glected, we appeal to our Democratic friends there to send their conveyances for all their neighbors who otherwise might not attend the polls. Let it Le clearly understood in every locali ty that he who fails to vote for our nominee, gives half a vote to the Republican party, and -that the Conservative who casts his vote for an independent is taking the surest means to break up and destroy the only party which can give relief to our affiieted country. We warn our fellow-citizens that great ends cau not be accomplished except at the -coitofnme inconvenience, and o'ten through the sacrifice of our personal preferences ; aud we appeal to every man who has the good of the people at heart to give a portion of one day to bis country, and subordinating bis individual preferences, cast his ballot for the nominee of the Conservative party.

The. sub ject matter Is varied and entertaining, while its typographical appear -nee it a model of neatness, and reflects the highest credit upon the exquisite taste and excellent judgment that suggested and directed it consummation. (Norfolk Vikgixiax.) This publication appeals to the people of the South for a staple support. It richly merits it aud we feel wiil receive it. We know of no Southern literary venture that has exhibited so much merit, united with an evidence of management that must win for it a position in the rauks of magazine literature and hold it. (Peters-hro Index Appeal.) The Soutii-Atlaxiic has this merit over any of its predecesiors in the tame arena, that its contents are solid, though hot heavy, and that no room appears to have been intended in it for productions of a trashy and frivolous character. While it continues to adhere to this rule, it' will have every claim on Southern and general support, tnd we unccrely trust it will receive it. (Daxvtlle News.)
