The New Orleans Picayune of the
18th has the following in regard to the
overflow in Louisiana:
We learn that SO wide and deep are
the crevasses above, and SO great the
volume of water flowing through them
that, as in the case of the Chinn and
Robertson crevasses, there is no posi-
bility of closing them till the subsidence
of the waters. In the meantime the over
whelming floods will pass over the gar
den Of Louisiana, and, besides the great
cotton and sugar growing parishes, of
West Baton Rouge, Iberville, La
fourche, and Terrebonne, many others
will be likely to be overfowed. Some
time ago we were informed that all the
bayous were full from the Chinn and
Robertson crevasses even down to the
lower Atchafalaya, and that many peo-
pie were driven miserably from their
homes. Still greater numbers will now
have to seek refuge among their fortu-
nate neighbors; their all lost, even to
the work of their hands during the sum-
mer, and we doubt not, being Louisiana
ans, that they will be Hospitality re-
ceiyed.

AFRAID OF THE PEOPLE Mr. Phillips, of
Orange, introduced an Ordinance in the Con-
vention yesterday, providing for Conven-
ton to amend the State Constitution in 1871.
Mr.. Phillips, although he says he is for the
white basis, would tie up the hands of the
people for five years to come, leaving the
present unjust basis in operation.
What will the free white men of Orange
say to this proposition to fetter them for
years on this vital subject? Warren County,
for example, under the present basis, with a
white population of 5,O0O has an equal voice
in the Legislature with Orange, which has a
white population of il 300. Such gross in
equality ought not to be continued for five or
six years, as proposed by Mr.. Phillips.
We understand that Mr.. Settle, in the
brief discussion that took place, got decid-
ed advantage over Mr.. Phillips on this
question

MEETING OF THE BAR AND CITIZENS OF

politeness of His Honor, Judge Reade we
are enabled to lay the following proceedings
before our readers. We preface them with
the letter of Judge Reade to Mrs. Badger,
which he furnishes by special request:
RoxBoRo', May 10Th, 1866.
Mrs. BADGER II have the honor of trans
mitting the proceedings of meeting of the
members of the legal profession, and large
concourse of citizens, attendant on the Supe-
rior Court for Person county, at its recent
Spring term, in memory of your late distin-
guished husband.
We were embarrassed in the meeting, by
the poverty of our language, in attempting
to express our admiration for the powers
and our affection for the virtues of our la
mented friend. And 1 feel the same en-
barrassment now in attempting to express
to you, who have made his home SO hospit-
able, his intercourse with his friends so
agreeable, and his life SO happy, ourapprecia-
tion of the gentle manners and amiable dis
position which sat by his side
Be pleased Mrs. Badger, to accept for
yourself and for all his family, assurances OF
our deep sympathy and sincere affection.
Very respectfully,

SEVERE WINTER IN IcELAND.-Iceland
is always a cold place in winter, as its name
signifies, but last winter was worse than usu-
al DR.. Hiatalin, the principal physician on
the island, writes /" We have had fright
full winter, the mean temperature having
been five degrees below the mean of our
winters. The thermometer during the last
few days has ranged between IL degrees and
IA degrees of Celsius This state of things
will no doubt occasion most tremendous
northern iceGrift, the consequence of which
you will feel in England and other north
ern countries. The enormous iceblocks will
be drifted into the Atlantic, and melting
there will be the cause of much rain, hail and
snow, with considerable lowering Of your
mean summer temperature"

THE RIGHT SORT OF A MOVEMENT
We are gratifed to see by the following
card from the Rev. G. D. Bernheim,
that the Lutheran Synod of this State
has determined to assist in promoting
immigration to North Carolina. Let
those who are really desirous of having
immigrants settle in this section coop
crate with this movement of the Luthe-
ran Synod:
Committee on Lnanaigration.-At a
meeting of 4he Evangelical Lutheran
SYNOD of North Carolina, held at Trim
ity Church, Cabarrus county, N. c.,
the following persons were appointed
committee on Foreign immigration
in the State of North Carolioa: Rev.
G. D. Bernheim, located for the present
at Charlotte; F. w. Ahrens and Jacob
Duls of the same place; DR.. Shaefer
and P. A. Frercksof Salisbury; II. B.
Eilers of Wilmington.
The object will be to aid our State in
securing laborers, artizans, farmers, and
household domestics, which will supply
a want that has been felt ever since our
labor system has become disarranged.
Likewise to secure homes and places
for such as are desirous to obtain en-
ployment, and not being acquainted
with the language, people and customs
of our country, know not where to ap-
ply for situations. And lastly, but not
least, to superintend their spiritual in
terest, so these immigrants may feel
themselves at home in their newly adopt
ed country.
1t is to be desired that an Immigra-
ton Society be formed at each comfy
seat in our State, to which all applica-
tions for laborers should be made, and
the inducements stated which the appli-
cants would be willing to extend to
foreigners to locate among them, or the
wages they would pay them monthly or
annually for their services.
As the State of North Carolina is well
noted for both its agricultural and min
eral resources, as well as for the salub-
rity of its climate, it presents unusual
inducements to all classes of foreigners
to locate on its soil without hesitation.
The Chairman being personally ac-
quainted with the Chaplain at Castle
Garden, in the city of New York, where
nearly all the foreign immigrants are
compelled by law to land, it is presnm-
ed that laborers can be obtained with
out delay, and with less expense than
to bring them direct from Europe.

tanned by addressing the subscriber at

MEssRs EDITORS The resolution to pay
W. H. Harrison, Esq, a delegate from the
County of Wake, who was detained by Sc
we're sickness from attending the late session
of the Convention, was introduced by me
without asking the consent of that gentle
man. 1 deemed it due to him, and in accor
dance both with the legislative precedent and
the provision of section 9 chapter 102 of the
Revised Code, which provides that in case
"any member of the Senate or House of
Commons shall be detained by sickness on
his journey to or from any session, or after
his arrival, shall be unable to attend the Sen
ate or House of Commons, he shall! be enti-
tied as if he had attended regularly in his
place"
make this statement in justice to Mr..
Harrison especially, as well as to myself, hav-
ing voluntarily introduced the resolution.

NoTE.-In proof of the usage of legisla-
tive bodies, I refer to the uniform rule of
paying the defeated contestant for a seat who
never has been member, but has asserted
his right to seat, and by SO doing, has left
his home and gone away without serving
day, though in full health. B. F. M.

At a meeting of the members of the legal
profession and citizens attendant on the Su-
perior Court for Person County, at its recent
Spring term, in memory of the late Hon. G.
E. Badger, Hon. E. G. Reade was called to
the chair, and Col. L. C. Edwards acted as
Secretary. The object of the meeting was
explained, and on motion of Hon. VIM. A.
Graham, committee of five, consisting of
Hon. VIM. A. Graham, Hon. R. B. Gillian,
Hon. John Kerr, Hon. Thomas Settle and
Hon. c. S. Winstead. were appointed by the
chair to propose resolutions for the action of
the meeting.
The committee reported as follows:
Hon. George E. Badger died of paralysis,
at his residence in Raleigh, on the 18th of
May, 1866, in the 72nd year of his age
For half century he was one of the
brightest ornaments of the legal profession.
His manners were simple and winning; his
moral and religious character blameless his
learning accurate and profound; his mind
clear and logical; and his powers as an adj
vocate equal to the powers of any man of
the age So that, in all that constitutes the
gentleman, the christian, the jurist and the
advocate, he has been cherished by us in the
past, dS Ills uleiuoTy Suouiu Uc CucilSucu uy
us in the future, as model.
His almost exclusive devotion to his pro-
fession, for the earlier and greater part of his
life, restricted the fame to which his pre-em-
inent abilities entitled him, to the limits of
North Carolina; but portion of his life was
given to the National councils, and he was
esteemed both in the Cabinet and Senate as
equal to the wisest statesmen and the ablest
debaters So that, it may with truth be said
of this distinguished dead, that he lived a
long life in the confidence and admiration of
his countrymen, and died with a spotless
reputation: Therefore.
/. Resoloed, That by the death of Hon. G.
E. Badger, the legal profession has lost one
of its brightest ornaments; society one OF
its most influential and useful members the
State one of its most distinguished citizens,
and the people one of their most incorrupti-
BILE and faithful servants.
g. Resolred, That we will wear the usual
badge of mourning for thirty days.
g. Resolued, That we deeply simpathize
with his family. and tender to them this to-
ken of our sympathy and coincidence.
4. Resclced, That the Chairman transmit a
copy of the proceedings to Mrs. Badger and
10 Gle puoilC PieSS, anu Inae tue hoh' AHOS'
Settle. Solicitor, present the same to the
Court here sitting, and request that they be
entered on the records.
The report was supp orted by Gov. Ora
ham and Judge Kerr, in the most appropri-
ate and touching remarks, and was unani-
mously adopted.
Hon. Thos. Settle, the Solicitor for the
District, presented the proceedings to the
Court, and his Honor, Judge Gillian, order
ed them to be entered upon the records
Both the Solicitor and his Honor accompa-
MED their action with remarks proper for the
occasion, and mighty complimentary to the
memory of the deceased.

HEALTH OF JEFFERSON DAVIS. s.-lThe
following is q copy ofthe official report,
in regard to the health of Mr.. Davis,
made by his attending physician /:
FoBTREss MoNRoE, Va, May, Q, 1890.
Admdnt General United States Army,
Washington, d. G.
Sir: In compliance with directions
from the President of the United States
to me, given through the Office of the
Adjutant General, / have made spe-'
cial examination OF State prisoner Jeff.
erson Davis, now in confinement at this
post, and report the following to be the
result of said examination He is con-
sierably emaciated, the fatty tissue
having almost disappeared, leaving his
skin much shrivelled. His muscles are
small, flaccid, and very soft, and he has
but little muscular strength. He is
quite weak and debiliated. Conse-
quietly his gait is becoming uneven and
irregular. His digestive organs at pre-
sent are in comparatively goodcondition
but become quickly deranged under
anything but the most carefully pre-
pared food. With diet disagreeing
with him dyspeptic SYMPTOMS promptly
make their appearance, soon followed
by vertigo, severe facial and cranial
neuralgia, an erysipelatous inflammation
of the posterior scalp and right side of
the nose, which quickly affects the right
eye, the only sound one he now has, and
extends through the nasal duct into the
interior nose.
His nervous system is greatly deranged,
being much Frustrated and excessive
ly irritable. Sight noises, which are
scarcely perceptible to man in robust
health, cause him much pain, the descrip-
tion of the sensation being as of one
fayed and having every sentient nerve
exposed to the waves Of sound. Want
Of sleep has been great and almost
the principal cause of his nervous ex-
citability. This has been produced by
the tramp of the creaking boots of the
sentinels ON post round the prison room
and the relieval of the guard at the ex-
piration of every two hours, which al.
most invariably wakens him. Prisoner
Davis states that he has scarcely enjoy.
ed over two hours of sleep unbroken al
one time since his cofinement. Means
have been taken, by placing mating Oh
the floors for the sentinels to walk ON
to alleviate this source of disturbance
but with only partial success. His vi
tai condition is low, and he has bu
little recuperative force. Should he b
attacked by any of the severe forms o
disease to which the tide-water regiol
Of Virginia is subject, |. with reason
fear for the result. A copy of this re
port have furnished to the headquar
ters of the military district of Fortres
Monroe, in compliance with orders fron
the major general commanding. Res
I pectfully, your obedient servent
GEORGE E. COOPER,
Surgeon u. S. A.
