Vance,~ Reception In irHinta.

Everything which tends to promote
the mutual good feeling ard regard
which North Carolina and Virginia
should cherish for each other, is haIled
by us with unaffected pleasure; for, as
the States were bound together i'll war,
SO IN peace are they identified IN many
of their interests. And hence It'll
that we have observed the impression
made by Vance during his recent visit
with great satisfaction. He began his
career as platform orator IN this
city last Spring. and within the past
week made his appearance In Rich
mond and Petersburg. In the CApi-
toll he was received with great cordi'
ality, and became the object of univel'
sal attention, while in the Coekade
City they had to take the CaioIlns
orator to a larger hall than tn orIgl'
nally selected, in order to find room
for the people who iocked to heal
The impression which be made

THE UNIVEEsSEEY RExE.

A private telegram from Raleigh on
yesterday brought US the pleasing in
telligence that the University Bill had
just passed its final reading in the
House of Representatives No doubt
IS entertained Of the passage of the
bill in the Senate.
We congratulate the friends of the
University, the friends of liberal
learning generally, upon''this fortunate
result-but more especially do we con-
graduate all WHO seek to promote the
advancement of agriculture and the
mechanic arts upon this action of the
Legislature.

WE are very glad to have the suIpo1
of contemporary so highly esteemed
as is the Macon tGa.l Telegraph and
Messenger, in our oppinion of Andrew
Johnson.
The Telegraph and Messenger says :
In a recent conversation with g
representative of the New York 7,'i-
bu,ae, Andy Johnson said:
My contest in Tennessee vas very
interesting one, and a very significant
Que. It was the fighting of Hoods
army over again. There were many
of his generals and high officers, with
their pardons in their pockets, trying
to beat me as they tried during the
war.
Aud this in the face of the fact that
he received the votes of the majority
of the Confederate soldiers in the Leg
stature p! But it is quite characteristic
of the old demagogue and migrate
He Is as cold as a wedge, and as
thoroughly devoid of magnanimity, or
any other generous emotion as Grant
himself. In our humble Judgment,
the day he was elected s enator from
Tennessee, will prove one of the dark
est that State has ever seen. He be-
trayed her once, and will not scruple
to do SO again if it is his interest. -
He is bad man, and always was
If he had any conscience, it seems to-
us, Washington is the last place on
earth to which he would care to go,
reminding him SO wildly as it would,
in such an event, of the poor old
woman whom he allowed to be so foully
done to death. The Democratic party
must watch him well. He sold them
out once. Let him not be allowed to
do SO a second time.

The GOTH OF NAy-MECKLEN-


Ere three score days and ten shall
have passed over orr heads one hun
dred wears will hsve elapsed since the
good people of Mecklenburg pledged
their lives, their fortunes aud their
sacred hopofs to the calse of Ameri-
can independence, and the question
arises @hat are we doing to celebrate
1 .the return Of day that marks such
rfoud and important era in our his
tory?
We do not ask what the people OF
Charlotte and of MecIzlenhurg are do
ing but we ask what are the people Of
North Carolina in its whole length and
breadth, doing in this matter? We all
have an interest in this proud heritage
no matter whether we belong to the
mountains or to the sea shore, and W.
ought all to contribute Ill some way to
make the ceremonies Of the coming
anniversary worthy of ourselves and
worthy of the glorious ancestors whose
noble deeds are to be celebrated.
10 Nor is itin North Carolina alone that
an interest is felt i'll the approaching
Doth May. Tennessee also cor1es in
on the ground that her soil was then
part of North Carolina and her citizens
true North CarolInians, and a cordial
welcome viii they have. Their Leg
islatuce has adopted the following
resolution
WHEREAS, On the goth day of May,
ITS, the people of Mecklenburg
county, North Carolina, in convention
assembled, declared their indtpend
ence of Great 3 4itain, ard proclaimed
to the world their intention Of defend
ing said ind cpendence WITH their lives,
their fortunes and their sacred honor
and whereas, the State OF North Caro-
lima proposes to celebrate the centeE-
NAL of this declaration on the 10th o.
May proximo; and whereas. the people
of Tennessee were then citizens of tbt
State of North Carolina and claim ;
participation in this heritage of fame
therefore. be it resolved by the Genel
al Assembly of the State OF Tennessee
that Committee Of five on the part o
the SS0alC hDu-Dn ING part VI tI'
House, he appointed to confer will
the Executive of the State OF NORTH
Carolina, IN conjunction with the com
mittee appointed by the Tennessee
Histories! Society, and to take sucl
steps as may be necessary and prope
to celebrate an event SO glorious t.
The fame of our common ancestry.
But what has our Legislature done
Anything? We regret indeed to sa
that we believe it has done LITERAL
nothing. There is, if we mistake moi
proposition to appropriate a snaa
sum to aid the people of Mecklenbur
in defraying the expenses necessaril
incident to such a celebration, in effec
to shift the burden from part to til
whole of the people, whore it right
fully belongs, but the proposition
still bare proposition and withou
that sanction necessary to make it
law.
We earnestly hope that the nece!
. sary sanction viii be given and that
will be given at once. There Is n
time to lose. Let IL be done and let
be done quickly.

THE CONVENTION BILL.

We print elsewhere this morning
the full text of the Convention Bill as
it will doubtless pass the House to
morrow. The bill does net in all re-
spects provide for such a Convention
as we desired. We think much larger
liberty could with advantage have
been given to the gentlemen who will
compose the Convention. But with
all the objections that can DO urged
against it and with all its limitations
and restrictions there Gun be no doubt
that it will work lasting good to the
people of the whole State.
