"Wednesday Morning, Jan. 4. 1871.
pre-paymc OF the sheeisI@-
tive Hands,

When in Columbia last week, a
merchant told us AS follows: a gen.
tlcnan Of color who boards certain
colorcd members Of the Legislature,
owed him Lill, and on Monday tDe.
cen.bcr l9th) he asked him why he had
n"t paid it according to agreement.
"Well, SIR" said he, "I'll pay you
on Thursday, certain" "Why," said
the merchant, "Are you so positive
about Thursday" "Becausc, sir"
said he, 'Vhem hands at tho Slate
house 'oiH be paid Of on Thursday. ana
I'll get my money aud pay you"
Thursday has come and gone, and
sure enough, "thom hands at the
S,atc-housc wero paid off" Nay,
they were even prepaid, and prepaid,
not for doing work, but for jollifying
during y prolonged holiday.
When chem hands, were being se-
lectol, we we've told that the Repub-
can party would reform itself Their
c.fJlt, in that direction so far, reaenl
bic the determination Of q drunken
man to walk II chalk line. They have
lowered the taxation from FIVE mills
on the dollar to niue They have
cut down the Lieutenant Governors
compensation to twenty-five hundred
dollars They have saved over twen.
ty tn "".n g. as rf mileage and
per didu Oh ,hc Christmas holidays
Thoy have assumed the ridiculous
rolo of outraged ho' esty over the
land commission, bro,.er Whittemote
now leading tho pha!,nx Of saints.
They have displayed an amount OF
british ignorance and vulgarity in
the comical farco that they claim to
be debate, that would have disgraced
even tho last Legislative Assembly.
While the Legislature Of North Caro-
lima have impeachod their Governor
for suspcnding habeas corpus, they
haNc impcachcd Judge for perform
ing his dnty IN its enforcement. and
nave made themselves tho laughing
stock Of tho Union by regarding
'e"olu'ion to impeaoh as m impeach,
ncnt. 1t is consolation, however,
hat though we white people arc vir
."ai!y aisfranchiscd, wo still posseas
he right to laugh. Sue, piece of
ow-comedy ns this farce upon legisla.
ion, is so raro, that it is almost worth |
line mills on the dollar, or oven ten.
Nor can wc very seriously object to
no paying and tho prcpaying of
'them hands at tho State-house."
Fhe latorer is worthy of his hire, and
he clown is entitled to his cap.
