Last Days Of tho N. c. Legislature.

The closing scenes Of the general
Assembly, recently adjourned, were
marked by some unusual and strik
ing exhibitions. When the resolu
tion ot thanks to Speaker Jarvis, Of
tho House of Representatives, "a
resolution richly merited by the mos,
worthy recipients was moved, the
colored m embcrs of that body, with
perhaps, an exception or two, tool
occasion to express their acknowl.
odgements to that gentleman for the
Fairness and impartial:ty which he
extended to them, and their sense OF
tho uniform kindness with which they
had been treated by tho Democratic
members generally. We can, indeed
recall no one instance, during the
whole course of tho Legislative pro.
ceedings in either House, in which
tho colored members were accorded
anything but generous and friendly
treatment, although, in the earlier
stages OF the session, before Holden
was impeached, and while his malip.
nant counsels were yot in the ascend.
ant, some of them indulged in mis-
guided and violent harangues. In
this respect marked contrast was
presented to tho course of certain
Radical members in previous Legis-
latures since the negro has had n
voice in the Assembly. 1t may not
have escaped the recollection of the
public that, in tho days whom carpet
6Nggers flourished in the Capitol, and
flaunted their brasen impudonce in
our halls of Legislature, there we're
frequent acrimonious and unparlia-
mehtarY alterations between them
and their colored allies,--in one oaso
proceeding to that extent, that tho
late A. II. Galloway shook his indig-
nant first right under the nose of tho
s'gay and festive" Estes. We do not
hesitate to assert the opinion, that the
negro members of tho Legislature arc
looked out upon, by tho Democratic
majority, with far, Moro Kindly and
favorable eyes than their brethren In
the Federal Congress arc by the Radi-
cal majority there !!
Let ns hcnc that :!."$: asAkaow;.
cdgcments, on tho part of the color
cd mombers, arc the harbingcrs of a
bottcr feeling and Of returning roa-
son, of tho inoipient conviction,
which must como, sooner or later, in
its extent, that the ,.ruest friends of
he negro race are to be found am ong
the people with whom their lots are
cast and with whom their genuine
material and moral interests arc idcn-
tilted. # 50, the augury, is an nu.

be hapged, by Judge Flippin, for tho
murder ola Firginian, named Soho

one Of tho saddest eras in my life:
Our parents and their children knew
each other. We grew up together;
went to the same sob3oE tic Same
church, and played, on Eill aid In

boyhood, Years have passed since
then. Our roads in life have diverg-

duties, / would that this cup past
from me- But cannot now shrink
from the performance Of this sad and

in the future, though other ,victims
may fall to avenge violated law. It
is, therefore the sentence of the court
that YOU be: ropnndod to the County

to be hanged by the neck until YOU
arc dead-and may God have mercy
upon your SOUL"
Whom Poston was called, both tho
Judge and Poston were very much
moved. Poston shook like an aspen
leaf and had TO grasp chair for sup.
port. At the,sonqLusion Of the SON.

The Cotton Tax Before the Supreme Court

''From the tolegraphio dispatches
as to the decision Of thn Supreme
Court luthe case Of Isarririgton vs.
Sanford, involving the cohstitutionali-
ty of tho cottontnx law, the opinion

that the Court decided in favor Of it's
constitutionality. Such is not the
i case. The Court was equally divided
on the question, and, therefore, really
made no decision That division, by
operation Of law, left the decision Of
the Court below to stand. In a. word
it was drawn battle, and tho door
Of redress BY Congress is left otcn 70

! A Dead Hero.

Martin Cooncy,is the name Of a
hoy who, deep down in the horrid
depths of the Pittston mine, per-
fp4ased deed Of ehereic selfsacri-
fce which shames into insigni6-
canee the actions by which many
happier men have climbed fame
and honor. Coouey and COM
paniou stood at the bottom Of the
shaft. as the ear was about to
ascend for. the last time. High
above them. roaring flames and
binding smoke, and the crash Of
taiiing imbers, were fast closing
up 8the marrow way to light
aaN 1ifes; below them, in the; gfoo-
ny PIT, were a score Of men, work
ing on, unconscious, of their deadly
peril. Cooney, with one foot up
on the car, thought of his endan-
gered friends. He proposed to his
companions that they should re-
turn,>and warm the miners oftheir
threatened fate. His companion
refused to 60, and then Cooney,
without q moments hesitation,
but with full consciousness that he
Rad chosen almost certain death,
leaped from the car, and groped
his way back through the grimy
darkness. IE was5 too late the
miners had closed the ventilating
door before he reached them and,
standing there between that i'm
raySgbse barrier and the shaft, the
BOT breath Of the fiery pit poured
in upon hisn in a pitiless blast, and
80 he died. He was but a lad
poor,eunlearssed, and probably un-
conscious o6 possession Of the high
ct v:rtues-and yet he died as
great and noble death as man
can ever die; h.. deliberately
sacrificed his own life in an at
temstto save those Of his friends.
Here is "a theme for the most ex-
7aited poetic genius. Compared
with this poor hoy, how quickly
10 the profane snd slaugy heroes
Of the coarse poetassers Of the
Hay school sink into contempt ;
>and bow unworthy and insufficient
seems the fiction in which they
are placed! It is from such per-
sons asthis. poor and obscure lad,
dong deeds of ininite hercisn
with simplicity that's altogether
pathetic, that we learn that the
purer and higher qualities of the
racc-tbe qualities which reveal
the presence of ttse spark Of d.
vinity in the soul-exist even yet
in the humbIest Of fmal. Kind.
