times ordered privates to shoot deserters,
without form of trial. That technically
speaking both officers and men were guilty
of the CRIME, but really the officers only were

to protect the subordinates.

go further perhaps, in the case of officers. II

ing negroes, persons of color and of mixed

+ A proposed ordinance for calling Con-
vention in 1871, was taken up and read.
Mr.. Phillips said that the sense of the
House had already been expressed upon this
subject. He, therefore, moved to lay it on
the table. Agreed to.
THE SPECIAL ORDER
Being an ordinance concerning debts of the
SIdGe thereafter COnCTdCCeC,
Mr.. Eaton moved to amend so that no APP
preparation could be made by the Legisla-
ture unless passed by majority of the mem
bers of each House, the yeas and nays being
called and recorded upon each reading
Mr.. Eaton made some remarks in favor of
the adoption of the ordinance, holding that
its restrictions were not onerous, that they
would prevent hasty and inconsiderate action,
and strengthen the public credit.
Mr.. Love- of Jackson, moved to amend by
providing that this ordinance shall not be
applicable to works of internal improvement
already begun.
Mr.. Love opposed the ordinance unless his
amendment she uld be adopted. He said that
the internal Improvements of the West would
now need appropriations, and these restric-
tions, unless modified, would tie up the
hands of the friends of internal improve
ments, and the western section of the State
would be made to suffer. No other railroads
were ever placed under such restrictions, and
in Justice to his section OF the State he must
oppose it.
Remarks were made by Gen. Logan and
Mr.. Caldwell, of Burke, in opposition to the
ordinance, and by Mr.. Winston in favor
Our space forbids any extended notice, which
we regret.
In order to test the Convention, Mr. Cald-
well of Burke moved TO lay the amendment
on the table. Not agreed to, yeas 80, nays So.

of Mr.. Love.
Mr. Brown addressed the Convention say
ing that this ordinance was not to be con-
strued into an act of hostility against rail
roads. In other States there were even greater

THE UNFINISHED BUSINESS

OF the last session was taken up. Several
ordinances and resolutions OF an unimpor-
tant nature were tabled or indefinitely post
poned, which we will not notice.
\ resolution to raise committee OF enqui-
ry to examine and report the eXpcdicncy of
establishing penitentiary and work-houscs
was adopted. The following committee was
appointed: Messrs. McIver, Buxton, Alexan-
der, Dockery and Gahagan.
Mr.. Grissom introduced an ordinance APP
plying the principles of the stay law to all
judgments heretotore and hereafter obtained
! in County as well as Superior Courts, on con-
tracts entered into before the 1st day of May,
1865.
He said that the Legislature had uninten-
tentionally, he supposed, omitted to provide
this restriction, and he was anxious to test
the sense of this Convention upon the sub
ject. The people would be involved in ruin
if these judgments are permitted to be exc
cuted The ordinance was hastily drawn,
and he moved its reference to a select COM
| mittee to perfect it.
The motion agreed to, and the COM
mittee constituted as follows: Messrs. How
ard, McRae, Pool, Adams, Settle, Grissom
and Wilson.
The reading of the calendar was resumed.
A resolution was taken up proposing ad-
journment on Monday, the 10th inst
Mr. Phillips moved that the resolutions
introduced by him yesterday, proposing to
raise committee for the purpose of preDar-
ing and reporting ar ordinance for providing
for a Convention in 1871 and also for the adj
journment of this body, be adopted as an
amendment to the above resolution.
Mr.. Moore, of Wake, arose to a point Of
order The resolution which Mr.. Phillips
wished to amend related to the matter of ad-
journment at the last session, which matter
had been disposed of. The resolution could
J not, therefore, be considered. 1t was not
before the House, it Was dead.
Mr.. Phillips said that the resolution came
up regularly from the calendar, and was read
by the clerk officially, and it was now before
the House AS a mere matter of order it was
before the House. since it came up regularly
from the calendar. Because it referred to
| the adjournment of last session was no reason
why it was not now before the House, but
merely very good reason for its rejection as
| it now stood.
Mr.. Moore in reply said this is an effete
resolution-a part of the debris of the last
session, which still fingers on the calendar

He thought there was too much haste ex-

There are other things necessary to be DONE
He did not mean any offence, but he must

At 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, a committee OF i've, 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 a 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 iurist and the
advocate, he has been cherished by Us in the
past as his memory should be cherished by
us in the future, as a model.
His almost exclusive devotion to his pro-
1eSSlOu lOG lDc edIlleT anu greater vi
life restricted the fame to which his pre-em-
inent abilities entitled him, to the limits OF
North-Carolina but portion ofhis 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
long life in the confidence and admiration OF
his countrymen, and died with a spotless
reputation: Therefore,
/. ResOlued, 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.
3. Resolced, 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
to the public press, and that the Hon. Thos.
Settle. Solicitor, present the same to the
Court here sitting, anG request that they be
entered on the records.
The report was supported 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
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

WE HAVE REVIVED THE MANUFAC-

will be prepared to fill orders by 1st June next.
AS we shall not be, as heretofore, represented by
travelling agents, parties wishing Gins will
confer favor by sending in their orders at an
early day. As owing to the demand, we shall be
unable to keep stock in the hands of our loca!
agents, as it was practice before the war. All
business transactions being now reduced to cash,
our sales will be made on the basis of ready pay
Our Gins are too well known to require any
special notice commentator; we believe they
are unrivalled in the chief points of excellence
which go 0 make up superior machine namely:
Speed, light drd,tyM and good sample
Our DOUBLE CYLINDER GINS will be found
superior to the single cylinder, when parties have
steam or good water power, to give them the
necessary speed. In all cases when this can be
done, we recommend them in preference to the
single cylinder If, however, Indifferent in
sufficient power is used, they will not do as well
the single Gin.
