PROTECTION OF MARRIED WOMEN.

AS matter of general concern, we lay before our
readers the act passed the late session of the Leg
sature making better provisions for the protection
of the rights of married women. The following is
the act: . 80. .. r. ..-.-fs.Ss-F
An Act making better and more suitable provisions
-..# for femes corert. =" 49,
Sec. L. Be IL enacted By the General assembly of
the State Of North Carolina, and 1t IS hereby enoced 6y
the authority Of The same, That from and after the
passage of this act, whenever marriage shall take
place. all the lands real estate owned by the feme
covert the time of marriage, and all lands real
estate which she may subsequently acquire, by will,
devise, Inheritance, otherwise shall not be subject
to be sold leased by the husband for the term of
his life, any less term of years. except by and
with the consent of his wife, first had and obtained,
tion according to the rules required by law for
the sale of lands by deed belonging to femes covert
SEC. 2. Be at further enacted, That no interest of
the husband whatever, in such lands or real estate
shall be subject to sale to satisfy any execution obtain
ed against him and all such sales hereby decar-
ed to be null and void, both in law and equity.
Sec. 3. Be it further enacted, That all the lands or
real estate which may be acquired and after the
first day of March next by femes covert already
ried either by gift, devise OF inheritance, shall be
emptions the lands real estate mentioned in the
first and second sections of this act.
Ratified 29th day of January, 1s49.
We consider this good law. It's practical effect
will be to home for the family, while per-
who may extend credit to the husband, knowing
thelaw to be it is, will do at their own risk.
But here, it strikes these laws ought to stop. We
would make every fit and reasonable provision for
females and to something, at least in the way
of comfort and education to the offspring of i'm
provident husband; but good disposition on the
part of the lawmakers in this respect unless wisely
Iimited will create evil and might produce unfortu-
nate results. The idea which we have seen or heard
of recently, of declaring by law that the endorsement
of the husband shall not be valid without the consent
of the wife, is absurd to be talked about.

The SCENE AROUND Us! The swarm of Office
hunters continues to haunt the members of the cab
met. The President having thrown them off from
himself, has only cast them with eager impatience
upon his Secretaries. These functionares are beg
gng for time look into their claims, and plead
ing the calls of visters, and the necessary business
of their Office, excuse for delay. Some few of
the ofice-seekers have gone. home, dissatisfied and
complaining. The many who remain have become
only the more chafed, and the more impatient for
their prey. Is there danger lest the moral cour-
age of the President should yeld and the torrent of
prescription should break down every barrier, and
sweep away all his past pledges and all his generous
feelings! 8. You have beaten the enemy said
democrat to him the other day, "gloriously on the
field of battle but you have yet contest before you,
where you have to meet assailants enthusiastic
and more greedy than the Mexicans.'' We fear for
the result. The departments in state of siege.
The Secretaries evade the crowd, are begging
for time. We frankly say, that if amidst this tre-
mendous pressure the General should stand his
ground exert the moral force which his situation
guires, and prescribe prescription, as he promised
to do, he will prove himself worthy of the high
Office to which he has been promoted. But can he

The above from the Washington Union of Thurs
day last, will furnish readers with some idea of
the desperate condition into which Gen. Taylor and
his Secretaries have been thrown, by otce-hdting,
an-proscriptiue Wings. The Secretaries evading
the crowd, begging for time ~ That tells the
tale in a few words. How humiliating and disgust
ing is such state of thingsl
The Register states that Col. Robert T. Paine, of
this State has been appointed in conjunction with
George Evans of Maine, and Caleb B. Smith of In
diana, as "a board of Commissioners Mexican
Claims. The Register adds that it is much graft
fed - at this appointment. No doubt it is ; but
take leave to say that in this respect it differs with
large majority of the people of the State.
