Peace OF the Bayonet.

It may be remembered that one General
Garfield, Congressman from Ohio, and q
special friend of General Grant, predicted
some months since that Grant intended to
give the peace he invoked in the shape of
ga little triangular piece of iron called
bayonet." The following from the New
York World, on the display made at the
Inauguration, has recalled to our mind the
prophecy OF Garfield. That journal says
The grand military display at the inau-
guration yesterday is new feature in the
history of occasions of this nature in the
United States, and stands out in striking
relief not only as opposed to the traditions
of the republic, but in striking contrast
with the professions and, as it were, pass

the things seen yesterday in Washington
were long lines Of troops, sqadrons of

His people did not ask for tho relief pro-
posed by the bill.
Mr.. Robbins accounted for this from the
fact of the superabundant crop of black
berries il Forsyth, by which they lived
and paid their debts.
Mr.. Wilson replied that his people did
not expe't the State to pay their debts.
Messrs. Osborne and Murphy gave the
question grave consideration. MIR. Muir
ply read the proceedings of public meet
ing, looking to arbitration as q means of
compromising debts.
Messrs. Shoffner and Welker made some
remarks IN reply to Mr.. Wilson. touching
the blackberry question.
Mr.. Barnes desired that the bill should
be made to conform to the Constitution,
and, until it did, he could not vote for it.
MIR. Sweet was in favor of giving relief
to the people ; but the bill was clearly un,
constitutional. as it impaired private con-
tracts.
Mr.. A. j. Jones was opposed to passing
any moro laws to remain dead letter on
the statute book. He thought the bill, if
passed. would prove imperative.
MIR. Jones moved the indefinite post
ponement of the bill. as he believed better
plan could be perfected for the relief of the
people.
Mr. Sweet moved to lay the bill on the
table. which was not agreed to.
A. d. Galloway, colored, referred to the
remarks Of Mr.. Sweet. respecting the
action of the House on bill for the relief
of the people, and thought that if Mr..
Sweet had heard what Le Galloway had
in the house to-day, from the Representa-
tive from Wake, Harris, colored. perhaps
the Senator from Craven would rot speak
SO hopefully of the action of the other
branch of the Legislature. Harris, col
ored, of the house, had used discourteous
language in speaking of this Senate-had
used damnable language.
Here considerable confusion ensued, and
moderation counselled-several members
deploring that anything should have been
said to mar the pleasant feeling between
the two houses
Galloway claimed the right to speak of
the member of the other house, especially
as he was of his own color.
The debate was further INDUCED in by
Messrs. Osborne and A. j. Jones.
Mr.. Jones Withdrew his motion to post
pone indefinitely, bnt to postpone until
Tuesday next, II o'clock, which prevailed.
The Senate then adjourned.
