Asa member on tho floor : of the Assembly, he lmd boon able, l efficient and practical ; aud as n pre | siding officer he was fair and impartial, ! courteous towards all and a wise admin j istrator of the rules. t During the pe J riod of his legislative service he won the confidence of the whole State, and ! when on the 8th day of April, J8'J1, he ! was called to the execntivo chair, on the sudden denoth of Gov. Fowle, the ' people were entirely satisfied that tho ; affairs of State wero iti good hands, and that the duties of that high ollice would bo discharged * with ability, intelligence and lofty patriotism. For sixteen years he had administered the affairs of the North Carolina Railroad, ! as. its president, with zeal and good i judgment, ami he laid down that ofltec | on becoming (iovernor, with tho con sciousness that nil of his acts had mot i public approval. Hut notwithstanding all of the a aried J duties that have claimed his attention, j his chief interest ever centered in Lit 1 cotton factories at Haw River. On the opposite side of tho river, spreading themselves over a gradually ascending eminence, lie his princely premises one of the finest country 'Ofsidences in the State, where natuii i and art are combined to illustrate flu taste and elegance of a cultured family. Hut it was I.inwood, his splendn plantation <>n the North Carolina road that Gov. Holt found his greates' pleasure. There his fine stock, one his l>oautiful fields yield their increase and d -light the eye of the practice! farmer. ' JnCetober, 1855, Gov.

The services at I |ho grave wore conducted by ltev. Hard In Alamance .'ounty thoro was Htrauge silenco. All naturo soeniod hushed. The hum of the faotonoH was , b tilled; tho smoke that nix days out ol Boven floats in black line* from tho Hooro of faotones that are scattered j along her stroams wud make her rich, , was not seeu. I But from the groat milling works of ; Haw Hiver and Graham came tho sound of slow-clanging hells, mingled with tho noteb of sorrow that camo from . tho little Presbyterian church over tho j |W Now tho hand that has guided the j fourthouband that live in Haw ltivor | 'and Graham is stilled; itswork ladono. , 'but works of tho man livo behind him, | 'and glancing up from tho 8^011- i wooded hills of Alamance, tho 'in*,, ( brick ohimneys will stand as monu- j monts; aud the black smoko that pours from their throats will go up asincenso , from a peoplo who remomhor then , employer, not as a master, but as a j frioud. . , . i i It was a novel, an interesting, a pa- J tliotio'sight, when tho long lino of car riages that followed the remains of ox (lovernor Holt commenced to arrive ut tho little brick church, In tho car riages wero men of prominence; men 'who had known and boon associated with the dead statesman iu public and 'social life; who had come, somo of | thorn, out of more regard for the mem ory of ho distinguished a North Caro linian* . r .. | I But tho more ?tr iking portion of tho ; throng wore those who are employe : in the faotories one saw over there on tho hills; tho people of tho county side, the keeper* of the small stores who I had shut up shop; the very ! boys and colored laborer^ tho rocky , farms around about. . Beautiful spring flowers, were borne in by tho pall bearers. 1 Behind the flower-hulou pulpit stood Rov ilardiu, oncc a classmate at col lege of Gov. Holt, and years ago a pastor ol' the eliuroh from which be t tent his boyhood friond to tho grave. His voice was full of dry-toned emo tion as ho gave out the hymns and road the Scripture ol tho sirnplo soi vice. By his side sat ltev. MeCorkle, tho present pastor, and grouped around him on tho platform were Kovs.McS. Shields, A. Curne, 11. C. Hunt J. N. Colo, Thompson, Hodon hoimer, Smodes, Fleming and Hume, representing every Protestant religion. As tho funeral party entered the church the organist Mr. Bacon, played softly from the gallery that appropri ate, sad mellody with a touch of hope and gladness in the words and music, '?Abide with Me." The people of tho factory town walked silently int-J their places and lillcd every seat in church and gallery, anil crowded respectfully to the windows aud doors. The services were simple -extreme ly simple. They wero more appro priate on that account. Hie few words iof the preacher, spoken with feeling, as true as it was evident, were of that sort which takes hold of tho reart strings and brings the tear to tho eye, tho lump in the throat. ' ltev. Harding read a chapter of Scripture. His voico faltered as he said the words: "I ?????? resiirroc tion and tho life, saith the Lord. Io felt deeply; he showed his fooling. But ho steadied himself and wont on, though his voico deepened until it camo to listening sears like ahuskj, whispered nolo of benediction . Ho onded with a prayer, and the congio cration followed him reverently. Mr Currie, an old pastor of this church, read the next hymn ?'Asleep in Jesus." He, too. was deeply affect ed. Ho read tho words faltenngly, but with pathos and feeling. He v. Harding arose again and gave out the by mil, "My Faith Looks up to ihce. ' J'aator MeCorkle stated that in uo cordanoo with tho wishes of the fam ily thero would be no discourso. ltev. E. H. Harding conducted the service* at the grave. Maj. J. \N . Wilson, by request threw on the lirst clods in the ceremony of "dust to dust ashes to ashes." He and ltev. Hard ing are tho only living class-mates of Governor Holt. The lloral offerings were profuse, magnificent and beautiful.

At San Francisco business iias not been active but is bettor. Kx ports of gen eral merchandise from Seattle and of the sanv? and lumber frc-m Ta ciinin, continue to attract attention On thoother hand wholesale merchants rtt* Now York. Boston, Philadelphia. Baltimore, Buffalo, Detroit and Chicago report business unsatisfactory, practically without improve ment. One of tne most unfavorable features is the continued inability of iuterlnr rner ebants to mako remittance^ promptly. Failures for the past week have r>een 209 in the United States against 207 last year, and 3.3 in Canada against 27 lru-t year. BreadstufTs and iron product* have risen {?lightly, but some other articles have de clined. and tho root of the matter is that de mand for consumption is still below expec tations. The billet pool nnd other combinations, however, have raised prices of pig iron, and steel, but as yot finished products have gained scarcely anything, nor has the dnnand for them increased. The output April 1st was 100.2H1 tons weekly against 189,588 March 1st, but reported stocks unsold increased 58,168 tons in March, ^ or 18,132 weekly, and there is t?vJdes the unknown accumu lation of the great steel concerns.
