V , to appoint three1 able lawyers to go through the - statutes- and issue new code containing all the Jaws of North Carolina in one book. To do , this work Messrs. WY T. Dortch John Manning and John S. llender son were selected. These ' three wen are very learned lawyers and experienced legislators, and com-lof mand the respect and esteem of the Bar as well as the people of North Carolina. A part of their duty laid on them ,by the Legislature was to make suggestions as to any needed change in the laws. This they have ''done and' the' changes recommended by them, are, very lew, ;;, :, , ,i . . -m ; .', - We now submit that the present Legislature pan v ry f safely confine itself to passing the laws recom mended by this Code Commission and, after gojug'' through ivith the regular routine necessary to keep the State machinery in, motion, ad journ sine die.

And in a few years so many new laws will be made that he new Code made . by Messrs. Dortch, Manning and Henderson will have to be set aside aud another Commission appointed to collate the laws.,; -.i . ! ' It is hardly probable that5 this adjournment ' suggestion will be seriously considered. The members of the Legislature have worked too ard during the summer to delib erately throw awny the privilege of making their speeches and seeing icir names aiwur. cou-'uicuous in the reports of the ; Pr6ceedings f the General Assembly v And, be- ide, (lie limjoiity of them have no oubts at all in ; their own minds that they know, much,, more about the wants of the country than . this Code Com misfiiou, Messiii.)j)rtch, AlauiMUg -ami- HenderRon may le ever so good lawyers and have bad muck, experience ' in legislative bodies; but the modern .member elect can never confess to his con stituents that anyone , knows more about-law making than himself; and instead of lookiug strictly1 to the jood of the State, is rather, think ing of self aud the , next election. All of which is not surprising, ai"! as the State is able to foot the billsj no one need complain much. v HOW TO TREAT THE 1NDIANSJ The House CouinHttee on' Appro- ii iatious has decided to i-ecommehd to Congress a1 departure from, the usual jnojle of treating th&dians. nstead of paying large sums anuu- illy for the maintenance in idleness of these useless pensioners,the com mittee proposes to give a greater sum than heretofore for the educa tion of the young Indians. So long as the red men are permitted to re mniA in a savage state they will be the sanio unmitigated nuisances they have always proved themselves to be. Experience has -demonstra ted that liberal treatment through the medium of Indian agents is not successful as ti means of civilization; oh th0 'contrary, while the numbers of the Indians decrease every year, their tribal organizations multiply and increase, arid the expenses of their care, custody aud maintenance are in ratio to the immber of differ ent nations that can be erected out Of the 250,000 or 300,000 "Indians not taxed" hi the United States. While, therefore, reducing the whole appropriation to the amount of $G7, 000, the committee recommend that there be an increase of $115,000 in the amount spent for the purpose Of educating young Indian's. c Ifbere be anything iivlhe doc-1 trine or theory, or,, whatever . it is," of.evoiut iou. some siijeji fllani as that coliMnlte'd by thetftnhnfttee will bo sure to succeeds The old In; xKilAd iire itAqirestfona!)! ' VtWdrfMgi- ble. ; Acc"orning to a very compe tent authority, all the good ones are dead, and even they wete not 'gojod while livingi" i;By1taking the young ones away from 'their5 vagrant pa reiltslind subjecting them to 'strict discipline and a system of compnl sory education ,hd continuing the policy for, two or three generations, it is possible the good results of the treatment will begin to crop out in the descendents of the present race -half- men oud-half ferocious beasts. The army sutlers and In dian agents may hot be able to m ake so much in the event of successfully civilizing these young barbarians, but what they lose better people will "gain., ':' ; v ; ! ; : I , ': : ;: ' : 7 1 '., -v ' i ' ' We do not believe our North American Indians are one whit worse than the savage tribes of an cient Germany, Gaul 'and Britian, who were conquered by the Eomans, and whose descendents finally be came the foremost peoples of the world. But they emerged from the primitive condition in which they were found by Ctesar into, the full blaze of the light of civilization and enlightened habits manners and customs, through tribulations, bard- ships and privations, that cut oil' the old and confirmed Lard cases, and compelled the younger growth to accept the changes imposed up on them by their conquer ors.' Tie Ilomans oxa!?'l 1 . . v tribute from t he . ; two ' ud ye.:rs co, to s oiit ; :il i to patrol tie com and keep t'.:e miserable inhabitants from starving by issuing them gov ernment rations, clothing, com missary whisky and other comforts, by means of which our government has been vainly trying for more than half a century to improve the moral character of the American savages. , Man is. such a peculiar animal that he can ouly be made to show his highest qualities by ' pass nig him through the crucible of bitter affliction. Ease and. luxury are fatal gifts to a race of people who are yet on the lowest round of enlightinent.- It needs a rough ex perience to force a growth iip to 'a better condition, and as the red man , is unquestionably, a hnupau being lie is not exception totlwuMe. This way, however, be supplied by rigid discipline, tempered -with dndness aud 1 justice. And if we can get the consent of our kind liearte'u but short-sighted human itarians to lay aside , the coddling exiieiiments Mhich hayfl lliiled and try, a more heroic plan, our 'Indian iroblem will be very likely' to solve itselt in the course ot a decade or two. !(' ,'l,f WASHINGTON 1ETTER. "Washington, U. CpLi, The national colors have again been run up at each end ot the Capi- itol indicating that the Senate and thet House ffen' in session. The usual crowd , made up. largely jaf transient, visitors assembled to wit, ness the opening of Congress; all the galleries were crowded to oyer flowing and many who were unable to obtain admission remained tout side in the lobbies or strolled about the corridors. : The opening scenes in' the Senate and in the. House were no variation from the familiar routine,'' until the sneakers gavel fell the House was as boisterous as bedlam j' while the Scuate preserved its traditional dignity so well that it seemed 1 almost. 1 superfluous5' for the. .

The ignoble temporary use to which the Capitol has been put seems at first jarringly out of place; but on reflection, one remembers that ins countrys Capi tol has been ' the scene of bolder bargains and less innocent traffic, It is doubtful If the Garfield Fair will realize the expectations of its managers.

Wealthy and distinguished people are arriving from all quari ters, for the reputation of the new Washington as the 'fashionable winter resort ot tms country is es tablished. Many will remain here throughout the entire season, while many more will make shorter visits or flying excursions to the city.
