Court House Improvement*.
Wo think tho proposition of tho County
Commissioners to nmb some alteration
In tho present interior arrangement of tho
Court House, and to greatly improve its
apixmrariee, will moot with very general
favor. Tltelr main object is to attain the
present Council Chamber for the use of
the Superior Court. This room will
bo very eommdlous, and if fitted out as
designed, will present a handsome ap
pearance. It Is intended to place a ros
trum in tho eastern end of the room.
There is to be a bar around this, and the
remaining space will bo occupied by grad
uating seats which will accommodate
throe hundred or more spectators, and
give a line view of tho whole room. The
Clerk’s office will bo moved into tho room
at present used by the* Court. A largo and
strong vault is already there, and by a
little expense, it can bo put In perfect or
der. The principal benefit resulting from
tliis new arrangement, will be tho bring
ing of the Clerk's office and tiie Court
room on the same floor and much closer
together. At present, there is much in
convenience to tho Clerk and to all tho
members of the bar. Besides tills, books
are often brought down stairs from the
Clerk's office, and left in the Court room
during the night, thereby endangering
some of the most important records be
longing to the county. A nice room, am
ple and convienont, could be easily llxed
for the Council in th© upper story. Tho
Commissioners propose, however, to al
low the Council the use of their present
room, after it is renovated, if they so de
sire. It is suggested by some that a con
venient room for holding the -Mayor’s
Courts’ could bo arranged in the base
ment. There can be no doubt but what
tills new arrangement would materially
improve the apjHMirance of a building in
whoso maintenance and convenient ar
rangement tho whole county should fool
an interest.
From several indications at the last
meeting of our City Fathers, wo think they
will assent to the change. If they persist,
however, in maintaining the present ar
rangement, the County Commissioners
will go to work and improve the present
Superior Court room. Wo see no reason
why the city should object to a proposi
tion which will Improve its appearance
and cost its treasury nothing, for the
County Commissioners proi>oso to make
the improvements at the expense of the
county. Wo an* anxious to see their prop
osition succeed, and tho Court House
made one of tho finest structures of the
kind in the State.
The present County Commissioners de
serve great credit for their efficient man
agement of the trusts delegated to them.
When they went into office, the county
was in debt about SOO,OOO. They have so
far improved upon this condition of af
fairs, that tho county is now completely
out of debt, and has a considerable
amount in the troasury. May wo ever
have officers so honest and faithful to
their duties. The Commissioners wish to
use part of this surplus in the treasury
for the improvement of the Court House.

On last Saturday night, while tin* House
of Representatives had under discussion
the resolution of censure against Treasu
rer Jones, the galleries were literally pack
ed. It is suld that great enthusiasm pre
vailed. When some of the speakers re
ferred to the spotless character of the old
man; his long and faithful services to the
people among whom he was born; his
stern iidelity and unswerving integrity,
the applause and cheering was extremely
enthusiastic. Cries of approbation came
from all parts of the gallery. Several mo
tions were made to clear the hall of all
spectators but none of them prevailed.
This is a comparatively unimportant oc
currence, but it must have lxx*n a source
of pleasant emotions to Col. Jones. It
showed him that he had a place in the
great heart of the people, and that it was
a fortress from which no envious darts or
malicious attempts of his enemies could
drive him.
As no position or power cun enable a
man to overcome the just indignation of
the public, so no insidious thrusts or un
just accusat ions can destroy a well-earned
reputation for purity and disinterested
honesty. A man conscious of his own in
tegrity and innocence can hear of no
sweeter sound iu the hour of trial than the
approving voice of his people. Then is
justice certain, for no legislation can mar
the character of a mail whom the people
know to be innocent. Then, for once, is it
true that u vox populi, vox Dei.”

Our Ki-|>r('(-n(Mllvo.
Hon. W. F. Williams, one of our repre
sentatives in the lower house, returned to
his constituency on yesterday. He seems
to be in line health and spirits, and says
that the Legislature adjourned with an
ease, a dignity, and a grace well becoming
to so important an assemblage. Hon. T.
W. Grimes still lingers on the scene of his
legislative labors, and seems loth to part.
He will probably return the latter part of
this week. Senator Crawford is expected
to arrive in this city on Thursday.
We are glad to welcome those gent le
men back to their homes and their constit
uents, ami aiv sure they will receive from
tho people the "Well done, good and faith
ful servant,” which is the most welcome
sound that could fall upon their ears, and
which they truly deserve.
In Reply to “Old Maid” No. 4.
M. E. would say that she is more In
clined than ever to bo “of tho same opin
ion still. '* Hlio is well aware, that her
soctionality may be suspected, on account
of hor propensity for guessing, but from
articlo No. 4, she thinks she has discover
ed unmistakable sentiments, that belong
only to men. For instance, what old
maid ever had the least sympathy for a
man who considered whiskey and tobac
co luxuries ? It is well known that neat
ness and sobriety are tho chief virtues of
old maids, and that they would be only
too glad to have these articles taxed so
high, that they would bo beyond the
reach of men of ordinary means. Then,
too, whoever heard of an old bachelor's
kitten, being “lean and diminutive, too
urivigilant to guard a scanty wardrobe
from the ravages of the rats”? Why, they
arc* always the sleekest, fattest, and keen
est, (from association, no doubt.,) animals
living, and a rat would as soon jump into
a baited trap, as trespass upon the range
of an old bachelor's cat.
Then too, why should an old maid be
so down on the taxation of bachelors?
Human nature is stronger than acquired
principles, and M. E. knows that a majori
ty of unmarried females are chuckling,
that bachelors are to be obliged to pay a
tax on the pleasures of celibacy, and only
regret, that it is not double what it is.
As regards our “Governor being bung
in effigy” for not vetoing this bill, M. E.
can assure “Old Maid” that hanging is
ids favorite mode of shucking off this
mortal coll, and he lias never let slip nn
opjiorlunlty for the enjoyment of this
luxury, for others that have come within
his reach; therefore, this threat will
prove of no avail. As to Homer, Cioero,
and Demosthenes, these are men, that a
wife and mother, has too little time or in
clination, to quote or consult. They more
rightly belong to tho “Lords of Creation,”
and we are astonished to find “Old Maid”
so familiar with them. In this she has de
cidedly the advantage of M. E.

Mayor’* Court.
The attendance upon His Honor’s morn

morning, Alfred MoNonlly was there,
though, and he had a good donl to say.
Reliable witnesses stated upon their oaths
that Alfred was the chief party in the ran
sacking of Barnett’s store t he other night.
Though stout denials of this charge came
from the acousixl, the contrary evidence
was too st rong. The Mayor required a
bond of SSOO for the appearance of the
prisoner at the next term of the Superior
Court. This boud could not l>e procured
and the prisoner was carried back to jail,
where lie will remain until the Superior
Court brings a refreshing change to the

Two very small negro boys were scared

offenders.

I take pleasure in stating that I have*used
fr the last twenty years the medicine vou
are putting up, known as Dr.ttnuljleld'*
Female Regi latoß, and consider *it the
best combinat ion ever gotten together for
the diseases for which it is recommended.
I have been familiar with the preparation
both ns a practitioner of medicine and in
domestic practice, and can honestly say
that I consider it a boon to suffering fe- ;
males, and can but hope that every lady
in our land, who may be suffering in any
way peculiar to their sex, may be able to
procure a bottle, and their sufferings may
not only l*e relieve*!, but that they may be
restored to health and strength.
With my kindest regards.
I am, respectfully,
