The legislature.

On Friday, the 3rd, VIM. S. Battle was
elected Judge of the Supreme Court. A
choice worthy of the Office. Clear in intel
lect, comprehensive in requirements ana Ia
horious in research. he well deserves it. And
withal, we are happy to know of honors con-
ferred on one, so modestly dignifed in his
ospirations-one who not onlywears the man
tie of the lawyer, but also that of the high
toned gentleman.
No election of Senator yet. The Wings
have brought forward Kenneth Rayner, who
received on one ballot, within tive votes of
the required number. Gen. Saunders name
has been withdrawn; and the Standard says.
he will cast his vote for Dobbin, whenever
it will elect him.
VIM. J. Clark reelected Comptroller.
The bill to appoint superintendent of
Common Schools has become a law,
On Wednesday, the 1st, by leave Of the
House, Mr. Ellis of Edgecombe, introduced
bill, accompanied by memorials, to estab-
lish new county to be called Wilson, out
of portions of Edgecombe, Johnston, and
Nash. Referred to committee on PROPOSE
tons and grievances.
The bill to incorporate the North Carolina
and Atlantic Rail Road Company passed its
third reading in the House.
The Free Suffrage bill was lost in the Sen
ate by the casting vote of the Speaker. y
similar bill has been introduced into the
Commons, and we presume will pass both
Houses by three-ifths, and thus bring the
matter before the next Legislature. 1t must
become law sooner or later. Though baf
fed oft, it must succeed. The people have
willed it. And though law may rise above
its source for a while, it requires something
more than the power welded by mere politi-
clans to keep it there.

The Presidents Message.

Neither will we be so unmerciful as to pub

pose would at all interest them, being the fol-
lowing summary of the financial operations
of the General Government.
The condition of the Treasury is ex-
hibited in the annual report from that
Department.
The cash receipts into the Treasury

twenty-eight thousand three hundred

principal and interest of the public
debt, including the last instalment Of
the indemnity to Mexico, under the
treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, leaving
a balance of Sl4,632,13 81 in the
Treasury on the first day of July last
Since this latter period, further purcha-
ses of the principal Of the public debt
have been made to the extent of two
four hundred and fifty-six
thousand FIVE hundred and forty-seven
dollars and forty-ninc cents, (2,456,-
547 49, and the surplus in the Treas
ury will continue to be applied to that
object, whenever the stock can be pro-
cured within the limits, as to price, au-
by law.
The value of foreign merchandise i'm
ported during the last fiscal year was
two hundred and seven millions two

Several months since, we renned an arti-
Gle, announcing the purchase, by Messrs.
Norfeet & Dancy, of the farm which now
bears the above name. In commenting on
their praiscworthy, systematic exertions to
raise it to high state Of cultivation, and to
improve 1t IN a manner to exhibit use, COM
fort and taste, we termed it the s"model or
experimental farm" AS we stated it to be
new purchase, to be applied to farming pur-
poses, which require years to attain perfec-
ton we did not suppose that any one would
mistake our meaning. To our surprise
however, we perceive that papers, even agrl-
cultural papers, have since spoken OF 1t as
the s.model farm ofour county, in the usual
acceptation of that term; whereas there are
several in a much higher state of cultivation.
Let us then set the matter right.
Messrs. Norfeet s Dancy purchased Pan
ola for the purpose of fairly testing the ben
efts to be derived from a thorough course of
scientific experiments. They plotted it in a
very judicious plantation style. Made new
and more convenient arrangement of the
buildings. Provided more commodiously
for their slaves. And began a thorough sys-
tenn of manuring, hoping by laborious and
well directed efforts to make it in few
gears not only profitable investment, but
also decoration and pride to the county.
The results have proved satisfactory so far,
and are we'll worthy of imitation Indeed as
an experimental farm, it is quite a model.

From The Washington Whig.

The murder of Mr.. Lassiter in Hyde
county by Washington Caravan, was
most diabolical affair. Lassiter was
teacher, a young man we'll esteemed.
Caravan was preacher of the kehukee
Baptist persuasion, and very popular
among the members of that church.
They quarrelled some months ago, and
the day he was killed Lassiter had a
writ served on Caravan for slander. On
Monday evening he passed Caravan $
house on his way to take charge of a
school in another part of the county.
Soon after he passed the house, Cara
avian with his gun went to the woods
which are back of the house, and half
mile beyond the house extend up to the
road where Lassiter was shot. He was
not missed till wednesday. The peo-
pie turned out in search of him, and
Saturday evening found the body bu-
ried in the dismal back Of Caravan 5
farm. That evening Caravan left, and
it is now ascertainei that about one
o'clock the next morning Sunday he
started in canoe from Pungo River,
and arrived at Duraam's Greek in Beau
fort county, about day break the next
morning. lie was rowed by man
named Lupton, who says-and no doubt
truly-that Caravan came to his house
about Il o'clock Saturday night, and
told him he must get to Durham :
Creek by morning-that he was on a
bargain for piece of land there, and
two of his neighbors had started byland,
By way of Washington, to buy the same
land, and unless he could get there be-
fore them he should lose the bargain
He has been traced from Durham S
Greek to Edgecombe coun ty, and moth
ing since has been heard of him, though
two men, one from Hyde and one from
Beaufort have been in pursuit of him.
Both have returned without getting aay
clue to his whereabout.
Caravan is about 80 years old, quite
bald, and very stout, well made man
has large mouth and head, a deep
voice, and is slow and deliberate in
speech. Ouc of his sidc-front teeth is
gone. He is man Of ungovernabie
passions and appetites, and we learned
last week in Hyde from those who for
merly thought we'll of him, that there is
scarcely doubt he has committed sew
eral murders before this one. That is a
fearful state of society which permits
such things to be done, and the perpe--
traitor to escane,
