Governor Hill has approved the bill relating
to prison labor passed at the extraordinary
session Of the Legislature. But he does so
with exceedingly bad grace, and spoils good
deal Of paper in scolding about the blemishes
and imperfections in the measure, which he
SAYS will need amending as soon as the Legis-
lature of 1859 assemblies. Mr. Hill evidently
considers it great mistake that he wasn't
consulted in regard TO the framing of the act
by the law making body. If he could have
his way, he would usurp the powers Of the
Legislature by positive action, as he has al
ready done in the matter of the census by his
veto power 1t would be a good thing if the
idea that the office of Governor is essentially
executive could be thrust into his brain.

A new land bill of great import
ance to persons who have heretofore
exhausted their rights under the
homestead and presumption laws has
passed the Senate and with import
mt amendments has been adopted
by the House of Representatives and
returned to the Senate for concur
renee in the amendments.
The bill as passed by the Senate
permits all persons who have fled
under pre- emption or homestead law,
but who for any reason have failed to
acquire title to lands, to again file
under the homestead law aud acquire
title to not more than one quarter
section Of public land.
The FIRST amendment added by the
House Of Representatives authorizes
registers and receivers to grant leaves
OF absences TO those who have made
entries aud who ''by reason Of
drought, whole or partial destruction
of crops, sickness, or other unavoids.
bic casualty are unable 10 "seeure
support for himself, herself, or those
dependent upon them" such absence
not TO exceek ono year at any one
time, though the period OF such alb
scnce shall not be counted as resi-
dcnce upon the land in making proof
and pcrfecting title.
The second amendment provides
that persons who have made home
stead entries for less than one quarter
section may make additional entry
for land contiguous to the original
homestead not exceeding, with the
land in such original entry, l6o acres
or II the entrymen elect they may re-
linquish the original entries and make
new ones the same as though they had
never made entries, except that nc
fees or commissions shall be exactoe
from the entryman for such additional
or new entries. The residence which
has been made upon the original en-
try will count as residence upon tn
additional or new entry in making
final proof, and where satsfactor,
final proof has already been made o.
the original entry no proof on the ad
ditional or new entry will be required
but patent may issue.
This will be glorious news to thou
sands OF persons anxious to acquir
homes but debarred from doing S
under existing laws. There is it'll
doubt that the bin will pass the Ser
ate as amended.
Copies OF the bill can be had b
addressing members OF Congress.

as creditable to the country as the
assault Of the acting Vice President
is disgraceful. Nor is his aspersion
relieved by his remark that the
election of such a President as he
describes has proved the capacity
Of the people f1r self government.
He admits that such an assertion
is paradoxical. But it is simply
silly. Such an unqul fed assault
strengthens the candidate at whom
it is launched. The on persons

Col. William Alien often spoke to

ATTACK UPON
THE PR ESIDENT.

Senator Ingalls,, of Kansas, now
the acting Vice President of the
United States, having published
paper in the North American
Review in which he pours out the
vials of his wrath upon President
Cleveland, Harper's Weekly of
New York makes the following just
and pointed comment:
"The acting Vice President Of the
United States has published in the
North American Review the foulest
attack upon the President which
has yet been made. and with the
intention undoubtedly that it should
appear upon the eve Of his renomi
nation. A just sense of official dig
nifty and propriety, it seems to us.
would have withheld the acting
Vice President from such an un-
seemingly performance at any time.
Even if the allegations were true,
they are expressed with such
studied vituperation, and with such
an evident desire not to tell the truth
but to produce an impression, that
they have no possible effect upon
any reader who is not already
decided.
AS vulgar personal trade, the
article, proceeding from a person in
a highly dignifed office, is merely
offensive to every decent American
of whatever party sympathy. But
as inviting reproach upon the
American name, and sceptiCism
and scorn of popular government,
it is of more importance. The paper
in carefully chosen repulsive epithets
describes the President as man
possessed of every acknowledged
disqualification of his Office, who
has been selected because of them.
He is ''an inert and vacant mass" of
Ignorance and bestiality, whom the
people of the United States have
either deliberately chosen to be their
Chief Magistrate, or have submitted
to his imposition upon them by fraud.
The author holds up his country to
the contempt of the world. If what
his paper alleges were true, if this
were the actual result after trial of
a hundred years of free popular
and the choice of their
governors by the people, the failure
of the popular system would be COM
plete.
The author of this libel upon the
American people was an ardent
supporter for the Presidency of a
man who was defeated because he
was believed to have trafhcked in

THE PEOPLE OF NORTH CAR
OLINA.

j ddge Clark at the University
The people Of North Carolina have
shown themselves to he more than
equal in every emergency. OF
almost pure English and Scotch
extraction. nowhere does the love of
liberty glow with a steadier and q
more enduring fame. They were
the first TO resist british agression at
Wilmington. In grand words at
Charlotte they wrote out the first
Declaration Of American Independ-
ence. At Halifax her Provincial
Congress was the first to instruct
for a national declaration OF u sepa
ration OF the colonies from Great
Britain In the hard contest that
followed her people made both those
declarations good. North Carolina
has ever been grander in deeds than
words and has always loomed up
larger III war than in peace. In the
late struggle she sent more soldiers
to the fed than any other Southern
State, and molly as the Old Domin-
ion did her duty. North Carolina
left more OF her sons dead on Virgin
la 5 soil than Virginia herself. Our
States grandly MAKES history, but,
magniicently indifferent TO her
fame, she leaves it to others to write
it. None fought heCter than her
sons in the Revelation, but New
England was allowed to write the
record. No soldiery went farther
than hers up the heights at Gettys-
burg while the fight was going on,
but after the war IS over other troops
are pushed farther up the hill when it
is no longer dangerous to do so. No
one who has ever seen her soldiers
amid the fire of battle cAn fail to say.
Il have seen them do their duty"
Nor Ney. nor Massena. nor the great
Frederick, nor Caesar, nor any other
captain ever led fourth to battle
better troops than those North
Carolinians who for four long years
carried the fortunes of the Con-
federacy upon the points of their
bayonets.
Modest, brave, unan1bitious, indif-
ferent to fame, but tenacious of their
rights, loving liberty and apprecia-
ting it's blessings, the people of
North Carolina ore sturdy and
independent and noble race Those
who know them best will appreciate
them the most
The women of North Carolina are
above all praise. They are as true.
as noble. as patriotic as any that
history can boast or that poetic
fancy has ever painted. No wonder
their husbands, sons, brothers and
lovers have never faltered in any
hour of their country's danger.
They could not and they dared not.
