A Harry HoAE.-In happy home there will be
fault finding po overbearing spirit there will be
no leevishness. Unkindness will not dwell in the
heart be the tongue. Oh, the tears, the sghs,
the wasting of life, ard health, and strength, and
timc-of all that is most TO be desired in home,
occasioned merely by unkind words. The celebra'
ted Mr.. Wesley remarked to this effect-namey, that
fretting and scodng seemed like tearing the flesh
from the bones and that we have no more right to
be guilty of this than have to curse, swear or
stem. In q perfectly happy homo, all selfshness
will be removed. Even as Christ pleased not him.
SELF" SO among the members of q happy home, oil
seltshness will be removed. Even as "Chrst pleas
ed not himself" SO the members of happy home
will not seek first to please themselves but to please
each other.
Cheerfulness is another ingredient in happy
home. How much does q sweetness emanatng
from heart fraught with love and kindness, con-
tribute to render home happy. How attracting
how soothing that sweet cheerulness that is borne
on the countenance Of . wife and mother.
How the parent and child, the brother and sister,
the mistress and servant dwell with delight on these
cheerful looks. those con6ding smiles that beam
from the eye and burst from the Utmost soul ofthose
who are dear and near. How it hastens the return
of the father-lightens the care Of the mother-ren
ders it more easy for both to resist temptation, anu
drawn by the cords of affection, how it induces them
with loving hearts to return to the parental roof
Oh, that parents would lay this subject to heart
that by untiring efforts they would SO far renaeI
home happy, that their children and domestics snai
not seek for happiness in forbidden paths.

Meeting of the Wake Democratic Association.
The Democrats had an enthusiastic rally at the
Town Hall or Friday night last.
The President, on taking the Chair, said that there
were several distinguished gentlemen present from
various portions of the State and he knew that he
only expressed the wishes of the association, in ex
tending to them cordial welcome and an invitation
to participate in the proceedings of the meeting
He then introduced R. P. Dick, Esq, of Guilford-
Mr.. Dick, on making his appearance, was greeted
with great applause. He addressed the meeting in
in glowing terms Of the prospects of the Democratic
party,-from Maine to California the Democrats and
large portion of the old-line Wings were rallying
under the Democratic banner with an unparalleled
enthusiasm. He discussed at length the platform
and course of the Know Nothing party, and gave
them terrible rakng. He examined the political
course of Mr. Fillmore, and showed that his claims
were not SO great as represented; and that if Mr..
Fillmore was elected according to the Know Moth
ing constitution-he would be governed by the Ma
tional Council He also paid his respects to Mr.. A.
j. Donelson. His remarks On the course of this
gentleman were very felictous, and frequently put
the house in a roar. He said, among other things,
that if Mr.. Donelson was to be believed Mr.. Fillmore
was unfit to be President; and If Mr. ID. was liar
and was not to be believed, then he himself was un.
fit for the high Office he was q candidate for. He
paid glowing tribute to Buchanan and Breckn.
ridge, and spoke Warmly OF theif csims upon tne
American people.
He spoke of Gov. Bragg in the highest compi.
mentary terms, both as gentleman and as states
man; and the tremendous outburst of applause that
followed his remarks showed how truly he reflected
the feelings of those present. He concluded his
remarks with stirring appeal to the Democrats,
invoking them to stand by their colors and glori'
Gus victory awaited them at the polls.
j. R. Mclean, Esq, of Guiiford, was next called
on, and entertained the meeting with an argumen'
tative and eloquent speech.

the metz session IN sct was passed to amend the
charter. Itproyides, s it ahall and may be lawful
for the corporation, &C.. To- isue notes Of the de-
nomination Of three dollars; but no note shall be
issued 81 said bank for = smaller Sum than three
dollars" -,
This was an attempt to remedy "the oversight"
and the amount of it is-there being doubt wheth-
er the bank issue any note under hve dollars by
force of the act of 1880, it is proposed as compro
mise to allow the bank to issue notes OF the denom
nation of three dollars and upwards provided it will
agree to issue no notes under that denomination. This
proposition was rejected by the bank at the session Of
1854 The act under consideration was passed as
part Of the Revised Code to 60 into effect LIST Janu'
ary, 1856. The general purpose OF this act is to
regulate the currency by prohibiting the circulation
of small notes. and to this end it was necessary to
prohibit the issuing of such notes. So, the particu-
lar purpose was to revoke the authority to issue
them should it have been conferred upon the bank,
unless it soas conferred plainly and expressly By the
charter. If not so conferred, penalty was imposed
upon the bank for issuing such notes; any person
passing or receiving them, was subjected to indct
ment, and the public Treasurer was directed not 70
receive them in payment of taxes; thus evlncing
determination to effect the purpose if it could be
done.
The question then, is, do the words used express
this intention with sufficient clearness!. In other
words, is the bank plainly and expressly allowed by
its charter to issue such notesP We are not at lib
erty to consider the word expressly" as used in
the sense of psr6s form another section of
the same act it is enacted" no person or corpora.
ton, unless the same shall be expressly allowed by
law, shall issue any bill, note," &c. !; and taken in
that sense, this would apply to all tho banks; but
the charters of these banks all contain clause ex-
pressly prohibiting the issue of notes under certas"
denomination This express prohibition is taken to
give the right to issue notes by reversing the maxim
erpre,sio unisLs, erclusio altersus. good rule
works both ways and in this latter sense the other
banks are expressly allowed to do SO in either sense
of the word but the addition Of the word "plainly
removes all doubt. After making so long an argu
ment under the first head to prove that this bank
had authority to issue such notes. it certainly can
not be necessary to make another long argument to
prove that the authority is not plainly and expressly
given.
Per CuRIAM.-Judgment affirmed.
