Tlie Jlilleilgovillc Iterordrr states that the eastern buildings attached to the Metropoli tan hotel in Sparta, were’ consumed by fire, from accident, on Sunday morning last. Rev. Dr. Win. J. Snssnctt died of typhoid fever at his farm, near Sparta, on the 3d inst. Dr. S. was among the first graduates of Ogle thorpe college. Referring to the fact that upon the election of Judge Jenkins to the governorship will create a vacancy on tlic supreme bench, the Millcdgcvillc Ittrorder says: We have heard three names mentioned in connection with the bench, Judge Hiram Warner, Judge H. disturbed, and not destroyed, respectfully ask your excellency to declare on the part of the authorities of'the United States that the State lias done her part and tbe government relations have been reconciled. Tlie convention instructed tlic legislature to provide for the payment of the debts of the State, and declare that all debts contracted in aiil of tlie war to be illegal, nnd .prohibit ed the payment of the same. Mr. B. said: We have heard that, notwithstanding the State might yield, and as I understand, has yielded all that was involved in the war, and notwith standing our people were submissive, well- disposed, and anxious for forrncf relations, her delegation in congress would not be admitted unless they liad qualifications not prescribed by the constitution; that they would be re quired to take an oath which few men in the State can take, affirming, not merely that they arc right, but that they have never been wrong. The exclusion of her delegates upon any such test as suggested would be felt by our people universally to be such a deep wrong-that it would put their strong devotion to the gov ernment and the lively hope of perfect re conciliation to the severest trial. They can understand the bitterness of tlie strife and the aversion to treason, but tliev will be con founded at the repulsion of offered friend ship and avowed loyalty. The convention, therefore, respectfully asks congress to repeal the test oath. I have thought it respectful, both to you and to congress, that this request should pass through your hands, with the hope that your Excellency’s magnanimity would add to it some reflection which would avail that body. After further remarks by Mr. Rcadc, in which he spoke of the confidence reposed in liim by North Carolina, the president re sponded as follows: Hon. Mr. Reade, X receive from you with pleasure a copy of the proceedings of tlio convention of North Carolina. I appreciate cordially tbe spirit of conciliation ill which you have addressed me. The convention of North Carolina has done much and well to wards restoring that State to her proper na tional relations, but something yet remains to Ire done to render that restoration practi cable. An acceptance of the constitutional amendment abolishing slavery throughout the United States, by the legislature of North Carolina, is, in my judgment, practically im portant to the successful restoration which is so mrtch desired by all. Without answering specifically the questions you have propound ed to me, it will be sufficient to say that my action must depend upon events, and that Mr. Holden will be again instructed to con tinue the exercise of his functions as provis ional governor until he shall have been ex pressly relieved by orders to that effect.” The following is a copy of the telegram ad- V.

The loans in all amount l°»^ n wlB^hTbl-^ 11 Sft - V miUions ’ ap d these will prbbabL be converted into Ion"’ bonds. Of the six hundred and thirty- three millions of legal tenders, at least "a hundred nnd thirty may be fimded in the course of a year without very great disturb ance of business affmrs. The currency mav thns be contracted to an amount not eiceed"- n,g eight hundred nullions, of which at least i a hundred millions in the compound interest notes will he out of circulation. We mav therefore, easily come down, bv' a uradmii process, to a volume of currencV not practi cally exceeding seven hundred ‘millions in about a year. A reduction of the currency to seven hundred millions would not brine it to the point of convertibility, but would prepare the way tor it. It is to be considered also, that the ’South is now deficient in cur rency, nnd will call for the share of the na tional tank capital and issues to which she will be entitled by her capital, business and production. The rumor that only four mil lions of national bank capital have been yet assigned to the South is that no application has been made for more. On the best authority we may state that no definite application for a national tank in the South ern States, by Southern capitalists and busi" ness men, has been refused by the comptroller of the currency, and that none is likelv to be The only question as to this matter" which has arisen is, whether the comptroller of tlie currency has.tbe power, under the existing law limiting the amount ofnationnl currency to reduce the amount of currency assigned to the northern banks to the extent of the amount to be assigned to the Southern States This question may be left to congress, if thev choose to act upon it. But the" probability of any increase by congress of the limit fixed by existing law to the amount of national bank issues daily diminishes. The secretary of the treasury and the comptroller of the currency are steadfastly opposed to it; It is also to be considered that a portion of the legal-tenders are now’ finding their way to the South in payment for cotton at the present high rates, and that much of it will remain their as a circulating medium. The difficulty in the way of such a contrac- tion as we have suggested, is, first, that the government requires a revenue of three hun dred millions, nnd it is argued that it will be hard to raise that sum unless money be abun dant. But expenditures may be, and must anil will bo reduced, and the" revenue, when collected, will go further in all government expenditure, when the consequence of reduc tion shall be felt in reduced expenses of liv ing, and in , a decrease of the price of all commodities. A graver difficulty is presented by the New York Journal of Commerce, in the fact that “the secretary of treasury wiU have his hands full to provide for his maturing payments, and therefore cannot afford to disturb the market in which lie must be a borrower for years to come,” and that, within three years, tli'cre will fall due nearly a thousand million in treasury paper, which must be either funded or paid. It may be admitted that it cannot be paid • but that it can be funded in long bonds we sec no reason to doubt, and perhaps at even a lower rate of interest. If congress and the executive government be disposed to ef fect the necessary contraction of the currency without a convulsion, which must occur, at some time, if they shrink from this work, the first step to be taken by them is to reduce the public expenditures by a radical system of retrenchment nnd economy: and the next and equally necessary step must bo to raise, by taxation, an amount exceeding the aggre gate expenditure,•’and faithfully apply the Stir]fins to the extinguishment..of.the,.public debt.—KatioaaT ititclligcnlir.

She possessed all the win- I ning charms ofher sex, which constituted her the ; cynosure of the social circle.

The grace of God added new love- | lincss to her natural graces and was to her em phatically a crown of glory and adiadem of b.au- ty Her last days were spent in repenting the rich promises of the gospel, In rehearsing some of the sweetest strains of sacred poetry, and in rumi nating on the ravishing glories of tlic life everlast ing.

Sir: Y’our letter of October lptli, with one inclosed'in Tclation to furniture, lias been re ceived. , , , , , In answer, I hate to ; say that the manufac turer is liable,to a duty of six per cent, on the entire value of all furniture (including mattresses, feather bedding, bureaus,, tables, washstands, chairs,, etc.,) he makes when tho same is sold, or removed for sale, use or de livery. AYlien lie'’ buys articles of furniture .on which the duty has been paid and morecom- iletely finishes and fits them for use or sale, jy upholstering, painting, varnishing, oiling, etc., he is liable to a duty of six per cent, on the increased value only thereof. No deduction cau be allowed on tbe sale of marble top furniture for the cost of .the mar ble tops; though the duty may ha\*e been paid thereon. When a.piece ot carving becomes apart of an article of furniture on which no duty lias been paid, its value cannot be deducted from the value of such articles of furniture, though the duty may have been paid on the. piece of carving. Tlie increased ,vnhic.given an article bv finishing is the price at. which it is'sold, fesV the cost of the original article before fin ishing. E. M.
