In regard to the approaching extra ses'

pondent of the Neus and Courier says: "Ac-
tive preparations are nov making preparato-
ry to the approaching extra session of the
General Assembly. There is great diversity
of opinion as to what ought to be done at the
extra session and what should be its dura-
tion. The prevailing idea with those whose
opinions are most entitled to consideration, is
that the defective tax act will not be the only
measure which will demand the attention of
our peerless lawmakers. As it is not by any
means improbable that each membeE, .,aas ,as
heret ofore, will come to Columbia with some
pet bill which he will strive to get through at
all hazards, it requires no astute political as
trologer or legislative prophet to see that the
extra session will not end in one week, as has
been announced by some of the most promi-
nent legislators"

CELEBRATION OF THE 2Ist.

AS theo order of proceedings at Kings Noun
tain on the 21st does not seem to be clearly
understood by many, in the absence of pro-
eramme of the exercises, We would state that
according to our understanding, the oratloh
will be delivered at or near the Pinnacle
where the flag will he hoisted while the meet
ing of the executive and other committees of
the centennial association will be held at
Kings Mountain Station, on the Airline
Railroad. To reach the Pinnacle, it is neces-
sary to make the distance of about five miles,
by private conveyance, from Kings Mountain
Station. The Pinnacle, on which it is proposed
to erect the flagstaff, is distant from the
Battle-Ground about seven miles. The Pm
nacle, however, is properly selected as the
most appropriate place to raise the flag as
from that point it can readily be seen at a
great distance, and will be exposed to view
from the Airline and the Chester and Lenoir
Railroads.
