Extra-session Talk.

NOrIOih
Governor Mckinney has said within
the past few days that if the committee
which is now pooling the State bonds
and endeavoring to formulate O satlsfac-
tory settlement of the debt shall submit
n proposition he will call the Legislature
together TO consider it, but as at present
advised he knows of no other necessity
for such action on his part. He is strong
lv ayerse to entailing upon the State the
expense of an extra session unless for
the very best reason, and We fully
agree with him in this position.
Ii there is demonstrable need
for an extra session call it 4; If
not. it would be exceedingly unwise to
draw together the General Assembly I'M
til it shall meet again in regular BIZ
ennial session. There are always many
persons to wish for and advise extra ses-
sions of Congress and State legisla-
lures they would like to have q per-
petual session, but there is far too much
legislation as it is. Hitwere possible to
confine legislatures TO the repeal of laws
it might be well for all of them to meet
and stay in session until our laws
Gre in shape to be read in a rea-
sonable time and clearly understood,
bat these bodies invariably produce
more laws, and increase the great bulk
and complication of statutes, instead of
reducing it and simplifying it. The
present Legislature can expire, with
advantage to the Commonwealth, 30 far
as we are able to see now, without the
public necessity for another session,
unless the debt question comes up in
fair shape for settlement. 1t is not at
all improbable that this emergency will
arise, and we shall be glad TO see in that
event an extra session called.

AN OLD MAN ABDUCTED.
To-day Charles Smith, white man,
and Rufus Montague, negro hacknan,
were arrested here They are charged
with going TO the house Of j.. 7. Wigs,
in this county, and forcibly taking there
from Larkin Smith, white man sixty
five years old, who can neither walk nor
sneak. and who is Smiths father and
Wiqgs's father-in-law. Two ladies, Mrs.
Wigs and Mrs. Ferrall, both daughters
of iarkin Smith, were the only other
people in tho house. Charles Smith was
forbidden TO enter. He and the negro,
Il is alleged, seized the old man and
threw him into carriage which they

Mrs. Ferrall, and Charles Smith tore her

wheels, and all her clothing torn off.
She is very badly hurt. Old man Smith
was carried away TO some place not as

mysterious and the official investigation
will be made Monday. 1t is apt to be q
very serious matter.
