We publish to-day the proceedings of Tuesday
md Wednesday, emitting those of Thursday, which
hall appear in our next Hereafter we shall pub
fsb the proceedings up to and including the day
immediately preceding the day on which our paper
issued.
Quite an interesting debate took place in the Sem
,te on Thursday, on bill introduced by Mr. Avery
s,r the relief of the Banks, &c. This bill releases
the Banks from the penalty of twelve per cent in
csse of suspension Of specie payments. The de-
hate was continued for some time by Messrs. Avery,
Brown, Hall, Morehead, Bledsoe, Worth, Arendell,
and others The Till finally passed its third read
inc with an amendment to the effect that the Banks
should not contract the aggregate amount of their
discounts during their suspension.
In the House, on Thursday, resolutions on feder-
:, affairs were introduced by Messrs Hoke, Ferre-
bee. and Merrimon. They were referred.
On Tuesday last William A. Jenkins Esq, was
reelected Attorney General of the State and on
Thursday Hon. Thomas Settle, of Rockingham, was

State GeOlO1ist,

CHARLESTON, Nov. 19.-The merchants of Charles
ton say that the people have suffered long enough
from the action of the Banks. There has been
money pressure here for ninety days. and it is daily
growing worse. They consider the policy pursued
ruinouS, and recommend meeting of merchants to
determine on the proper of action 1t is the
general opinion that the banks should adopt some
immediate relief measure for the sake of the COM
munity.

The government arsenal is constantly guarded by
detachments of the Washington Light Infantry. An
immense quantity of ammunition is stored there,
and people believe the public good requires that it
should not be removed. Any attempt 20 remove 1t
would almost certainly preciptate revolution and
bloodshed The Light Infantry patrols are not ad-
mitted within the arsenal walls, but encamp in the
surrounding enclosure. The strictest military dis
cipline prevails among those on duty.
There is no doubt that most active correspond
ence is constantly kept up from this point with CuDa
and Europe, relative to immediate recognition Of the
Southern Conederacy by the foreign powers, as soon
as the confederacy demands recognition.
There is talk of the Legislature declaring the
State out of the Union, and leaving the convention
to ratify the act.

There are but two leading issues at this time be-
fore the people of this State all others having been
settled. These issues are, .s
list The alteration of the Constitution of this
State, by the legislative mode as to place slaves
as taxables on the same footing with land.
I'd The preservation of the Union according to
the Constitution.
We shall discuss these issues at length in future
numbers We are in favor of altering the Constitu-
ton in the mode and for the purpose designated !;
and while will not submit to the administration
of the federal government on black Republican prn-
ci2les, VIC are in favor of trying Mr. Lincoln, and OPP
posed to breaking up the government at this time
and for existing causes.
Several bills have already been introduced into
the Legislature with the view of altering the Con-
stitution. We have no hesitation in saying that we
prefer Mr.. Bedsoes bill, which we publish to-day,
to any bill which has been introduced.

TIDY HABrTs.-People who are habtually untdy
destroy their property much more than those who
are careful and clean and who clear away things af
ter they have been used Many make the excuse
that they have not time to be tidy Alas! alas if
they could but see the extreme folly of such ex
cuse! fthcy could but know how much valuable
time they lose by their careless ways they would
certainly try to alter them. .r..
There many who are very careless in their
general habits but who arc not exactly fond Of dirt
and these have now and then grand scrubbing and
setting rights Of course it is better to do 1t thus
than not to do it at all but quiet constant neatness
is far, very FAR, better.

ANALYSIS OF SOILS. >
RALEIGH Nnv IL 1850


Mr.. Tucker: Stsr-f-
DEAR SIR-The bard mari which you gave me
for analysis drom the plantations of Messrs Per-
kins d Caraway, Of Georgetown District, S. CD
contains large admixture of sand, though not so
much as to prerent its use as a fertilizer.
1t contains from sc to SO Slick and from IA to 12
of carb. lime and a small quantity of magnesia 1t
is highly probably that in connexion with this rock
mari softer and richer mari may be found.
The red or brown soil from the lands of c. Per-
kins OF Pitt county, N. c., have tested as fer
tilizer, and find it is composed of sae
Slick, $500
Water, 600
Organic matter, 500
Alumina peroxide of iron, $500
Carbonate of lime, ga per Ct
Magncsia.
To explain the effects of this substance as fer
tilizer, must take into account the free organic
matter and the lime which it contains But be-
eve in this the iron is also in combination with
crenic and apocrenIc acids which organic bodies
and which furnish ammonia. The mode, however,
liz which it operates is not so important as to know
the fact that it is So Its composition certainly
shows that it would be fertilizer, nut to what ex-
tent, experiment and observation are necessary to
determine Only about half of the material is use
less, while all the rest may be regarded in way
or another as fertilizng matter. 1t would be useful
in formation of cOmposts.

DIaT.-Old Dr. Cooper, of South Carolina, used
to say to his students Don't be afraid of little
dirt, young gentlemen. What is dirt? Why
nothing at all offensive, when chemically viewed.
Rub little alkali upon that dirty grease spot
on your coat and it undergoes a chemical
change and becomes soap. Now rub it with a lit
tie water, and it disappears; it is neither grease
soap, water nor dirt. That is not very odorous
pile of dirt you observe there Well, scatter lit
tie gypsum over it and it is longer dirty. Eve
rything you call dirt is worthy of your notice as
students of chemistry. Analyze it 1t will all
separate very clean elements Dirt makes corn,
corn makes bread and meat and that makes a very
sweet young lady that saw of you kissing last
night &c. after all, you were kissing dirt particu-
larly if she whtens her face with chalk fullers
earth There is no telling, young gentlemen, what
is DIRT"

President Buchanan insists that the Constitution of
the United States establishes government, and he,
as the sworn head and Executive thereof must
and will to the execution of the federal laws that
the idea of peaccablc secession by any State is

he is supported by Cass, Black, Toucey, and Holt
and opposed by Floyd Cobb, and Thompson.
