May 1st, says: One of the most extraordinaay events in the history of our North Carolina courts, (now,' alas, so sadly changed from the past) occurred in the specialcourt of this city yesterday. The case of a white man, by the name of Charles Posner, was on trial; Mr. John L. 'Holmes, one ef the members of our bar, appearing as counsel for the de- fendant, when Anthony Howe, a black ne- • groe, and who rejeiced in the dignity of an alderman of the city, was called to the stand, and wanted to be called 'Mister' by the counsel, who for long years has known -him but as "Anthony,' The following is the record of the singular proceedings as direct- ed by the court: 'In the case, Anthony Howe, Esq., was called aa witness to tes- tify to the character of the complainant. Mr. Holmes, counsel for tlie defendant, ad- dressed Mr. Howe as 'Anthony.' The wit- ness said he did not object- to be so -styled, but objected to the toe and manner in which he was addressed. The court ruled that the witness had a, right to demand that he should be addressed in a.-prdper manner,. and with respect, and not with familiarity; 'whereupon the counsel refused to be gov- erned by the decision of the court in the matter, and it was ordered that a fine of $10 - be entered against Mr. Holmes forcantempt of court for refusing to obey this order, and take his seat wherl directed trdo so. 'Mr. Holmes again peiemptorily refused. to obey the order of the quint touching the treatment of the witness under examination, and insisted on the right to cross-examine without complying with the order. of the court to address him otherwise than/ by his first name 'Anthony,' after objection made and sustained to that style of address on the put of the witness, and the same order had been extended to the other counsel, upon which it was ordered that the fine be $20 a- gainst Mr. John L. Holmes f or 'Contempt „ of court. The Ivines-, at this point Was dis- charged by the court, the attorney, Holmes, adding, 'Stand aside Anthony,' in the hear- , Mg of court, and in contempt of its de- cision and authority, and it was then order- aed' that the fine be $100 against Mr, Holmes, arid that the particulars be re- corded. C.,) Journal, of •On 'Removing the National Capital The only good, so far, that has been ev- olved in the discussion of the protsosition to remove he national capital from Washings ton to some juvenile city of the West has been to provoke a little fun. It seems, to -us, that the ouly real correct, and impreg- nable view of the matter, is the view taken by the Hon. J. A. Johnson, of California, who exploits the idea that the true locality for a capital is in California.. 'A long time, ago,' he admits"' 'Washington city was a name that could not be mentioned -without kindling emotions of patriotism, whereas, now it suggests only a great ragged picture of negro :processions, election riots, and a lobby ox white speculatms who could not be satisfied by a legislative donation of the pure joys of traith and righteousness never whole world, unlessit was tendered with a sprins sueh a person. --If young men Vote of thanks.' He proposes, therefore, but knew how much a good characterwould the Pacific, where pacification may be found dignify and exalt them, heae glorious it in the soil, the airethe fruitsand the juices, would make their prospects, even in this the ledges and the lacers 'Let us go,' he life, neer 8110111d w0 find them yielding. to The Land of the Lillies Japan is at present apparently enjoying a season of profound peace and rest, and everything that foreigners see and hear ac- tually denotes the permanency of this satis- factory conditicin of affairs. The late out- break in the territory of the Prince of Chos- hin has terminated after two days, fighting, in whieh a few only were killed and wound- ed. , , Great destitution prevails among the poor throughout the entire country. So dire is the fart}ine in some parts that the sick and dying *titres are cast out along the way- side in incredible numbers. It was hoped that the Government alms -houses recently established in different parts of the empire, would have provided for these houselesso poor, but the people complain that only such as can Make themselves profitable by their 'labor are admitted to these institutions. The authorities have even ceased to order the buiiall of the dead bodies, and they are ly- ing about everywhere until eaten up by the dogs. 6 The heavy shipments of rice from China lately have at last caused a fall in the market, and it is now hoped that we have seen the worst of this heart-rending dis– tress. The Japanese Government has at length determined to abolish Buddism and estab- lish the Shinto worship as the national re- ligion. • A proclamation was issued on the 10th instant to the effect that all Shinto temples should be instantly purged of all • Buddism idols, and all the accessories of • Buddhist worship. This edict has set the priests of the two forms of worship into • violent 'e ontention, and it is feared a popu. lar tumult may be occasioned thereby at no distant day. it is to be 'hoped that the Shinto priests will continue to receive protection from the authorities, for the rea- son that they are not so intolerant of Chris- tia.nity as the others. F1'OM Nagasaki we learn that the prose- cution of native Christians has ceased. This has been caused, not by any relentings of the Government in deference to the feelings of the Christian nations, but because there are no convents left to prosecute. About • 4,000 natiire Christians, in all, • have been torn from their homes and exiled to places where there persecutors imagine the asso- ciations of heathenism will prove too strong for their new faith, and reduce them to the level of their neighbors. The ignoble vic- tory,of the government over this handful of its subjects is now being celebrated by dis- gusting festivities, which decency fox bids description of. During all this persecution the Christian nations having treaties with Japan, never once interfered to stop it. A Good More,1 Character. _ • . There is nothing -which adds so much to the beauty, and power of man as a good mo- ral character. It is his ssPeslth—his influ ence—his life. It dignifies him in every station, exalts him in every condition, and glorifies him at evesy period of life. Such a character is more to be desiiet: than evei-y thing else on earth. It makes a mat free and independent. No servile tool, no crouching sycophant, no treacherous honor - seeker, ever bore such a character.

There is a cdpital of over $100,000,00.0 in- vested in the manufacture of lager beer in this country. • Lager -beer, as it is manu- factured by the, German brewers, is a fer- mented beverage, and consists of the extract of malt (barley germ:inated by a watering process, and then dried in a kiln) and hops and water, in 'which both of th.e first named ingredients are boiled. It derives its name from the custom in Germany of brewing it only in whiter and storing it away, or lay- ing i.t back, the part of it svhieh is destined to be consumed during the summer months in large, cool vaults or cellars, the German word lager, having the definition of 'stock,' 'store,' and 'stand.' There are three kinds of the beverage, viz: Winter beer, which is brewed and consumed during the winter, the larger -beer proper, and bock -beer, and is therefore Il e stiongest of the three. The chemical constituents or the lager-beei are, according te Prof. Justus Von. Liebig, the renowned German chemist, as follows : Al- cohol from 2. 9 to five per cent., solid sub- stances, as starch -gum, sugar and vegetable albumen, from 4 to 8 per cent. ; carbonic acid from 0.15 to 0.18 per cent.; water from 88.5 to 92 per cent. The proportion of al- cohol contained in it is small, it appears from the above analysis, and in this respect it widely differs from distilled liquors. • Lager - beer is a spirituous beverage, and is intoxi- cating if taken in excessive quantities. Ac- cording to Liebig's (latrine it pioduces in the human body nothing g - but • fat. Motes- chott, the well-known German -naturalist, sAys tEat good lager -beer is just as nutritious as fruits are. The hop -bitter contained in lager -beer, according • to some authorities, imparts to it tonic properties, which make it an invigorating beverage. Lagerabeer, these authorities assert, favors the process if digestion by increasing the quantity of di- gestive secretions in th strengthens the muscular a laxed by sickness or long lager -beer is considered b itran physiologists quite as human body as tea and cofi er hand, hop -bitter has a sotenolent effect. It prevents the beverae°e from getting sour. Lager -beer seems to be altogether a German invention, aisd even in this country its manefactins-i is almost exclusively in the hands of Germans, Large quantities of it are brewed every winter, and even, to some extent, during the summer, in' places where there is a large German population—for •instance, in this vicinity, in Newark, N. J., in •Philadelphia, Baltimore; Cincinnati, St.. Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, and many smal- ler places, chiefly in the West. The Lager - beer brewed and sold at Milwaukee, Wis.,. is eonsidered the best and cheapest of this comati-y. It is the opinion of experienced breweis that the q;sality and taste of lager - beer, depend to Some degree to the water used for it. The sensible Germans of the old country, as well as of this, like those of all other na,tions, consider fresh Water' the - best and healthiest of all drinks. If they . feel inclined to take something stronger, when exhausted by hard labor or as a matter of sneial custon-a they prefer wine to ao•er- beer. But the irtie is more expensive As a rule, however, they prefer fermented la- ger -beer to whsikey and other distilled li- quors.' The quantity of lager beer consumed in this city in the IInion, although it can- not be maintained that the Germans of this city individually drink more lager-iseer than the Germans of Cincinnati, St. Louis or Chicago. Besides the home-made beverage, lagei-beer manufactured ' at Newark, N. J., Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Toledo, Ohio, and other places of this country, and sometimes even foreien lager -beer, imported from Ger-1 many, is cl°rank in this City. ----/V. 1'.
