The department, through its able < i. missioner and his intelligent co-adjutors, lias scored a brilliant achievement in collecting and ex-hibiting the State's products and in demonstrating to the world the State's vast and wonderful capabil-ities and resources. Commissioner Met;lur. assisted by Dr. Dabney, and supported by zealous and effi-cient assistants, hasdone lor North Carolina an incalculable service. The extent of the Ninth Carolina exhibit is vast beyond comprehen-sion, and fills a North Carolinian. who sees his State (he most con-spicuous object of attraction in a grcal American exposition, with amazement While there arc other State exhibits, made by the Union Pacific Railroad, they are insignifi-cant in comparison with North Car-olina. North Carolina holds the place of honor, and it is a most welcome sight that greets the eye oi every North Carolinian upon en-tering the exposition hall.

Another ore belt, running parallel with it and at a distance of three miles from it, is known as the Shaw outcrop. There are aj.parent];, 200,000 tons of ore above water level, in this particu-lar section, in the ore six-foot bed. The gold of North Carolina be-longs to four different geological positions, and is generally more or less allayed with silver, varying from pure gold on the one side to pure silver on the other. Accord-ing to the specimens shown in the exhibit, the auriferous ore of the State in a general way embraces nearly one half of the State, but the productive area contains about 12,000 square miles. Nearly every mode of occurrence of gold known to the geologist and mining engi-neer finds here an illustrative ex-ample, and the same is shown in the specimens in the State's exhibit. The exhibit of native gold and gold bearing minerals attracts much at-tention, that from StsAily, Mont gomery, Rutherford and Caldwell counties being free milling, and that from the other counties ob-tained in the form of sulphurets. The average assay of gold in the Stale is about $10 value per ton. In some instances as much as W00 broad draperies of the Union, red, , a ton has been assayed.

The largest gold in sign intimating that information concerning the State may be had there, and here is always found Commissioner McGhee and his at-tentive and polite assistants, Messrs. T. K. Brnner, of Salisbury, and W. II. Korr, of Raleigh, with lively. The scope of the exhibit of spec imeus of useful minerals and build ing stones is a surprise. For in stance, mica mining has been car-ried on here for years, and one mine in Mitchel county yields a ton of specimens of these forming the sides and roof. In the centre are jars containing speci-mens of grains of various kinds, peanuts, peas, rice, sweet potatoes, sugar, molasses and lruits. Around the outside are bins containing flue specimens of cereals; big cars of corn are hung at intervals, and stulks of corn, fifteen feet high; sunflowers, equally tall; timothy, clover, blue grass aud herd grass show the producing qualities of the soil. Near this structure is a large frame, which contains the Hughes collection of evaporated fruits. It occupies a conspicuous place and attracts wide attention. A pile of oyster shells shows the enormous size of our oysters. In a miniature garden near the front of the space occupied are specimens of the cot-ton plant, rhododendron, long-leaf pine, hemlock, fig, arbor vitie, Venus fly trap, aud pitcher plant, two large palmettos at the front corners ot the square giving it a decidedly tropical look. The display of North Carolina "bright" tobacco is extensive and attractive. Connecticut people look at it with wonder and admiration, aud have taken the pains to care-fully study the cultivation and manufacture of the weed iu this State. In short the best part of North Carolina can be seen at Bos-ton in a nut shell. The exhibit is an elaborate and comprehensive index of the State's resources. The object in making the exhibit was to at-tract attention to the State, and secure through it New England capital and brains.

In declaring the "Civil Rights Bill" unconstitutional the Supreme court has affirmed the doctrine that Congress has no right to regulate the social habits and the social ens touts of the people Of the States. and it has put it out of the power of base and low demagogues, both white and black, to use what was a fruitful engine of mischief only. The live cases commonly known as the civil rights cases, were sub-mitted to the court on printed ar-guments about, a year ago. The titles of these cases aud the States from whence they came are as fol-lows: No. 1. the United States vs Murray Stanley, from the U. S. Circuit Court for the district of Kansas; No. L', the United States vs. Michael Ryan, from the U. S. Circuit Court for the district of California; No. 3,the United States vs. Samuel Nichols, from the U. S. Circuit Court for the western dis-trict of.Missouri; No. 20, the United States vs. Samuel D. Singleton, from the U. S. Circuit. Court for the Southern district of New York, and No. 28, Richard A. Bobinson and wife vs. the Charleston and Memphis Railroad Company, from the U. S. Circuit court for the dis-trict of Tennesse. These cases were all based on the first and second sections of the civil rights act of 1875, and were respectively prosecutions under lirst. That Congress had no con-stitutioual authority to pass the sections in question uuder the thirteenth or fourteenth amend-ment ot the constitution. Second. That the fourteenth amendment is prohibitory upon the States only, and that "the leg-islation authorized to be adopted by Congress for enforcing that amendment is not direct legislation on the matters respecting which the States are prohibited from mak-ing or enforcing certain laws or doing certain acts, but is correct-ive legislation necessary or proper for concentrating and redressing the effect of such laws or acts; that in forbidding the States, for exam-ple to deprive any person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law, aud giving Con gross power to enforce the prohibi-tion, it was not intended to give Congress power to provide the process of law for the protection of life, liberty and property, (which would embrace almost all subjects of legislation) but to provide modes of redress for counteracting the operation and effect of State laws obnoxious to the prohibition. Third. That the thirteenth amendment gave no power to Con-gress to pass the sections referred to, becauso that amendment re-lates to slavery a-id involuntary servitude, which it abolishes, and gives Congress power to pass laws for its enforcement; that this power only extends to the subject matter of the amendment itself, namely, slavery and involuntary servitude, and the necessary incidents and cousequeuces of those conditions; that it has nothing to do with different races or colors, but that it only refers to slavery—the legal equality of different races and classes of citizen being provided for in the fourteenth amendment, which prohibits the Slate from do-ing anything to interfere with such equality: that it is -io infringement of the thirteenth amendment to re-fuse any person the equal accom- ' lations and privileges of an inn or a place of public entertainment, however it may be in violation of his legal rights; that it imposes upon him no badge of slavery or invol-untary servitude which imply some sort of subjection of one person to another, and the incapacity inci-dent thereto, such as inability to hold property, to make contracts, to be parties in court, &c; and that if the original civil rights act, which abolished these incapacities, might be supported by the thir-teenth amendment, it does not therefore follow that the act of 1876 can be supported by it. Fourth. That this decision af-fects only the validity of the law in the States, and not in the Terri-tories or the District of Columbia, where the legislative power of Con-gress is unlimited ; and it does not undertake to decide what Congress might or might not do under the power to regulate commerce with foreign nations and amongst, the several States, the law not being drawn with any such view-. Fifth. That, therefore, it is the opinion of the court that the first and second sections of the act of Congress of .March 1, 1875, entitled "An act to protect all citizens in their civil and legal rights," are unconstitutional and void, and judgment should be rendered upon the indictments accordingly. *rrt«l«rtkeO-fetetf.i»e,d,,«»,. delegation of old Confederate sob 101..

The peril comes from the consideration of American men for women. Lasker says : 1 find that the women in Amer ica are generally much better ed-ucated than the men. It is a ques-tion iu 11 i.v mind whether this is for the best, and whether it would be wise to educate German women to such an extent. Most men have no time to devote to books. They are engaged iu their various bread winning pursuits, while women have many leisure hours in which They thus be superior to the Then came carriages containing Goy. Jarvis, Lieut.Gov.

Sloan, Col Robert 11. Jenkins (of Beaurcguurd's stall), Mr. O. W. Harris. 36th N. C. T.: Cap:. Ar-thur Barnes. Gen. W. B. Cox. There was a long line of car riages closing the cortege, and numbers of men whom North Car-olina honors. Up Cabanas and Pay etteville streets, with solemn step and slow passed the cortege, the people lin-ing the streets in a dense mass, and the silence being most deep. The sad strains of the dead march thrilled the air, and the scene was in the highest degree impressive. Arrived at ihecapitol. the building dimly lighted was filled with peo-ple, expectant and solemn. Amid a hush which was oppressive, the pall-bearers, all men who had un dergone their "baptism ol lire." advanced. There were thirty two of these pall bearers, eight Io each casket. The pallbearers were: Win. J Saunilers, T 1! Bridgers, I! F Park, J 1) Joyner. John B Crawford, J B Burwell, Clias. M Bnsbee, Senry Powell. I! E Petty. J J Fray.Thos. S Kenan. Paul F Faisou.

On a black dias the caskets were reverently laid, the ladies of the Memorial associationstanding near. The caskets, all black, bore each the letters '-N. C." in silver white. They were literally banked with flowers. These tokens of love for the dead shed their fragrance far and wide and bore mute witness as outward and visible signs of an in-ward feeling of love too deep for other utterance. Amid this solemn stillness then the dead were placed in the rotun-da. For hours people walked rev erently by, gazing with emotion at the caskets which enshrined all that remains on earth of our gallant the ceineti ry. lb- referred to the dead. It was a privilege tube surviving comrades, present to aid 1 here and to participate in such i in paying this last token of resj ceremonies.

Certainly this should not be unless both be ited. That th-y were soldiers I he world admits. Throughout the romam r history', of song or sto-ry, no men ever illustrated by valor, by endurance, by suffering, whether in the field,on tin- march, in camp or in the hospital, a rarer devotion to duty, a liner coinage. a more splendid carriage than did our North Carolina soldiers. Tiny have by common consent, the high e-t title to that mark of fame. And patriots!

But whctll er this was done or not, the lustre of their deeds would not be dimmed in the eyes of the people ol North Carolina. Their example had been a noble one, and he urged all his hearers to practice that braver; . courage, coustaucy, faithfulness in peace which these deail showed in war. Walking yet nearer the open graves, the Governor, 111 tender and touching words, eulogized the dead, those just brought here and those whose gravestones befon dotted largest skeletons, one of which is Gu'teau's, bore no labels. The smaller ones were placarded, "Ne gro girl!" aud "Skeleton of a boyl" Of the forme,, that ol the assassin can be easily distinguished by its height. Guiteau was five feet nine Or ten inches. The skeleton cor responds with these figures. The purpose of putting the other skele tons in the case was doubtless to prevent suspicion. A close scruti-ny of Cuitcan's bones showed that each distinct portion had been marked with a very small letter "D" in indelible ink by the museum authorities, probably as a means of identification iu case they are ever stolen. Another noticeable feature was a slight sloop in the shoulders, which those who saw the man will recognize at once The reporter turned to the gentleman who gave him the information and asked where the head was kepi. j "The head was ski -d alter th,. autopsy," he replied. --|| was then es of staffed, sewed up, and pickled in alcohol, ami is now in this build. ing.

The department, through its able < i. missioner and his intelligent co-adjutors, lias scored a brilliant achievement in collecting and ex-hibiting the State's products and in demonstrating to the world the State's vast and wonderful capabil-ities and resources. Commissioner Met;lur. assisted by Dr. Dabney, and supported by zealous and effi-cient assistants, hasdone lor North Carolina an incalculable service. The extent of the Ninth Carolina exhibit is vast beyond comprehen-sion, and fills a North Carolinian. who sees his State (he most con-spicuous object of attraction in a grcal American exposition, with amazement While there arc other State exhibits, made by the Union Pacific Railroad, they are insignifi-cant in comparison with North Car-olina.

Another ore belt, running parallel with it and at a distance of three miles from it, is known as the Shaw outcrop. There are aj.parent];, 200,000 tons of ore above water level, in this particu-lar section, in the ore six-foot bed. The gold of North Carolina be-longs to four different geological positions, and is generally more or less allayed with silver, varying from pure gold on the one side to pure silver on the other. Accord-ing to the specimens shown in the exhibit, the auriferous ore of the State in a general way embraces nearly one half of the State, but the productive area contains about 12,000 square miles. Nearly every mode of occurrence of gold known to the geologist and mining engi-neer finds here an illustrative ex-ample, and the same is shown in the specimens in the State's exhibit. The exhibit of native gold and gold bearing minerals attracts much at-tention, that from StsAily, Mont gomery, Rutherford and Caldwell counties being free milling, and that from the other counties ob-tained in the form of sulphurets. The average assay of gold in the Stale is about $10 value per ton. In some instances as much as W00 broad draperies of the Union, red, , a ton has been assayed.

The largest gold in sign intimating that information concerning the State may be had there, and here is always found Commissioner McGhee and his at-tentive and polite assistants, Messrs. T. K. Brnner, of Salisbury, and W. II. Korr, of Raleigh, with lively. The scope of the exhibit of spec imeus of useful minerals and build ing stones is a surprise. For in stance, mica mining has been car-ried on here for years, and one mine in Mitchel county yields a ton of specimens of these forming the sides and roof. In the centre are jars containing speci-mens of grains of various kinds, peanuts, peas, rice, sweet potatoes, sugar, molasses and lruits. Around the outside are bins containing flue specimens of cereals; big cars of corn are hung at intervals, and stulks of corn, fifteen feet high; sunflowers, equally tall; timothy, clover, blue grass aud herd grass show the producing qualities of the soil. Near this structure is a large frame, which contains the Hughes collection of evaporated fruits. It occupies a conspicuous place and attracts wide attention. A pile of oyster shells shows the enormous size of our oysters. In a miniature garden near the front of the space occupied are specimens of the cot-ton plant, rhododendron, long-leaf pine, hemlock, fig, arbor vitie, Venus fly trap, aud pitcher plant, two large palmettos at the front corners ot the square giving it a decidedly tropical look. The display of North Carolina "bright" tobacco is extensive and attractive. Connecticut people look at it with wonder and admiration, aud have taken the pains to care-fully study the cultivation and manufacture of the weed iu this State. In short the best part of North Carolina can be seen at Bos-ton in a nut shell. The exhibit is an elaborate and comprehensive index of the State's resources. The object in making the exhibit was to at-tract attention to the State, and secure through it New England capital and brains.

In declaring the "Civil Rights Bill" unconstitutional the Supreme court has affirmed the doctrine that Congress has no right to regulate the social habits and the social ens touts of the people Of the States. and it has put it out of the power of base and low demagogues, both white and black, to use what was a fruitful engine of mischief only. The live cases commonly known as the civil rights cases, were sub-mitted to the court on printed ar-guments about, a year ago. The titles of these cases aud the States from whence they came are as fol-lows: No. 1. the United States vs Murray Stanley, from the U. S. Circuit Court for the district of Kansas; No. L', the United States vs. Michael Ryan, from the U. S. Circuit Court for the district of California; No. 3,the United States vs. Samuel Nichols, from the U. S. Circuit Court for the western dis-trict of.Missouri; No. 20, the United States vs. Samuel D. Singleton, from the U. S. Circuit. Court for the Southern district of New York, and No. 28, Richard A. Bobinson and wife vs. the Charleston and Memphis Railroad Company, from the U. S. Circuit court for the dis-trict of Tennesse. These cases were all based on the first and second sections of the civil rights act of 1875, and were respectively prosecutions under lirst. That Congress had no con-stitutioual authority to pass the sections in question uuder the thirteenth or fourteenth amend-ment ot the constitution. Second. That the fourteenth amendment is prohibitory upon the States only, and that "the leg-islation authorized to be adopted by Congress for enforcing that amendment is not direct legislation on the matters respecting which the States are prohibited from mak-ing or enforcing certain laws or doing certain acts, but is correct-ive legislation necessary or proper for concentrating and redressing the effect of such laws or acts; that in forbidding the States, for exam-ple to deprive any person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law, aud giving Con gross power to enforce the prohibi-tion, it was not intended to give Congress power to provide the process of law for the protection of life, liberty and property, (which would embrace almost all subjects of legislation) but to provide modes of redress for counteracting the operation and effect of State laws obnoxious to the prohibition. Third. That the thirteenth amendment gave no power to Con-gress to pass the sections referred to, becauso that amendment re-lates to slavery a-id involuntary servitude, which it abolishes, and gives Congress power to pass laws for its enforcement; that this power only extends to the subject matter of the amendment itself, namely, slavery and involuntary servitude, and the necessary incidents and cousequeuces of those conditions; that it has nothing to do with different races or colors, but that it only refers to slavery—the legal equality of different races and classes of citizen being provided for in the fourteenth amendment, which prohibits the Slate from do-ing anything to interfere with such equality: that it is -io infringement of the thirteenth amendment to re-fuse any person the equal accom- ' lations and privileges of an inn or a place of public entertainment, however it may be in violation of his legal rights; that it imposes upon him no badge of slavery or invol-untary servitude which imply some sort of subjection of one person to another, and the incapacity inci-dent thereto, such as inability to hold property, to make contracts, to be parties in court, &c; and that if the original civil rights act, which abolished these incapacities, might be supported by the thir-teenth amendment, it does not therefore follow that the act of 1876 can be supported by it. Fourth. That this decision af-fects only the validity of the law in the States, and not in the Terri-tories or the District of Columbia, where the legislative power of Con-gress is unlimited ; and it does not undertake to decide what Congress might or might not do under the power to regulate commerce with foreign nations and amongst, the several States, the law not being drawn with any such view-. Fifth. That, therefore, it is the opinion of the court that the first and second sections of the act of Congress of .March 1, 1875, entitled "An act to protect all citizens in their civil and legal rights," are unconstitutional and void, and judgment should be rendered upon the indictments accordingly. *rrt«l«rtkeO-fetetf.i»e,d,,«»,. delegation of old Confederate sob 101..

The peril comes from the consideration of American men for women. Lasker says : 1 find that the women in Amer ica are generally much better ed-ucated than the men. It is a ques-tion iu 11 i.v mind whether this is for the best, and whether it would be wise to educate German women to such an extent. Most men have no time to devote to books. They are engaged iu their various bread winning pursuits, while women have many leisure hours in which They thus be superior to the Then came carriages containing Goy. Jarvis, Lieut.Gov.

Sloan, Col Robert 11. Jenkins (of Beaurcguurd's stall), Mr. O. W. Harris. 36th N. C. T.: Cap:. Ar-thur Barnes. Gen. W. B. Cox. There was a long line of car riages closing the cortege, and numbers of men whom North Car-olina honors. Up Cabanas and Pay etteville streets, with solemn step and slow passed the cortege, the people lin-ing the streets in a dense mass, and the silence being most deep. The sad strains of the dead march thrilled the air, and the scene was in the highest degree impressive. Arrived at ihecapitol. the building dimly lighted was filled with peo-ple, expectant and solemn. Amid a hush which was oppressive, the pall-bearers, all men who had un dergone their "baptism ol lire." advanced. There were thirty two of these pall bearers, eight Io each casket. The pallbearers were: Win. J Saunilers, T 1! Bridgers, I! F Park, J 1) Joyner. John B Crawford, J B Burwell, Clias. M Bnsbee, Senry Powell. I! E Petty. J J Fray.Thos. S Kenan. Paul F Faisou.

On a black dias the caskets were reverently laid, the ladies of the Memorial associationstanding near. The caskets, all black, bore each the letters '-N. C." in silver white. They were literally banked with flowers. These tokens of love for the dead shed their fragrance far and wide and bore mute witness as outward and visible signs of an in-ward feeling of love too deep for other utterance. Amid this solemn stillness then the dead were placed in the rotun-da. For hours people walked rev erently by, gazing with emotion at the caskets which enshrined all that remains on earth of our gallant the ceineti ry. lb- referred to the dead. It was a privilege tube surviving comrades, present to aid 1 here and to participate in such i in paying this last token of resj ceremonies.

Certainly this should not be unless both be ited. That th-y were soldiers I he world admits. Throughout the romam r history', of song or sto-ry, no men ever illustrated by valor, by endurance, by suffering, whether in the field,on tin- march, in camp or in the hospital, a rarer devotion to duty, a liner coinage. a more splendid carriage than did our North Carolina soldiers. Tiny have by common consent, the high e-t title to that mark of fame. And patriots! They went forth at the command of their lawlul, regular State government, and strictly obeyed the mandates of the consti-tuted, legal, recognized authority. through years of pain and suffer-ing even in death.

But whctll er this was done or not, the lustre of their deeds would not be dimmed in the eyes of the people ol North Carolina. Their example had been a noble one, and he urged all his hearers to practice that braver; . courage, coustaucy, faithfulness in peace which these deail showed in war. Walking yet nearer the open graves, the Governor, 111 tender and touching words, eulogized the dead, those just brought here and those whose gravestones befon dotted largest skeletons, one of which is Gu'teau's, bore no labels. The smaller ones were placarded, "Ne gro girl!" aud "Skeleton of a boyl" Of the forme,, that ol the assassin can be easily distinguished by its height. Guiteau was five feet nine Or ten inches. The skeleton cor responds with these figures. The purpose of putting the other skele tons in the case was doubtless to prevent suspicion. A close scruti-ny of Cuitcan's bones showed that each distinct portion had been marked with a very small letter "D" in indelible ink by the museum authorities, probably as a means of identification iu case they are ever stolen. Another noticeable feature was a slight sloop in the shoulders, which those who saw the man will recognize at once The reporter turned to the gentleman who gave him the information and asked where the head was kepi. j "The head was ski -d alter th,. autopsy," he replied. --|| was then es of staffed, sewed up, and pickled in alcohol, ami is now in this build. ing.
