VOL. XX. 4, J..BRUNER, ROTTER AND PROPRIETOR. Events of the Year 1862. ee From the Richmond Examiuer Jau'y 1, 1563. Our feet are upoa the threshold of the third year of the ust gigantic struggle tor nativnal independence to be found in the anaals of the world, Assailed on all sides by armies, which, for numbers and appuiut- cnents, have beew hitherty unequalled iu auy war. Though we have been stripped of much territery, have lust our chiel city, and though the eaemy have gained a fevthold ia every State of-eur Confederacy, Yet the shuld of our generals and the courage of qur de vuted legious, eviuced on a luudred bloody fields duriug Uhe year just closed, enable us two-day Ww Stand belore the world aad our ea- euues a more powertul, unied aud deter- miued peuple than at any previeus period of our history. The ume 1s oppurtune W pause for a moment, and cast a retrospect over the great eveuts of the past twelve moaths. A recollecuon of ouc disasters aud our victories as useful knowledge for the preseut and the future, The year of our Lord 1862 dawned glvouii- ly toc the Suutherw republic. The popes ot government aud peuple had just beeu sadly dashed by the disappeyarence of a chauce of war between Kuglaud aud vur encuy.

However, it then inspired uo litde terror. Acuve bectines were instituted this year wey General Jackson, who attacked aud drove tue evemy oat ot Morgan county on the 4th January. A ouinber of shurwishes followed jo Nertwern Virginia and wn Western Keu- wucky, aud in Missouri, in all of winch the advantage was decidedly with the Confeder- ates. QUur people touvk our successes as tiat- ters of cuurse, as it was universally boleved that the “Bull Runners” as it was the fasion of tuat day to call then, could vot stand be- fore Soutiern troops in a land fight. While we were consuliuy ourselves with this view of our land forces tor our disasters past and to come by water, Gen. Crittenden iwarched his litde army of GOOO mea into a trap at Somerset, Ky., laid for him by the Yaukee Gen'ls Scheepff and Thomas, and only extricated himself after a loss of 500 men, killed and wounded, his artillery equip- age and JUUU men, He thought the enemy's unmbers were Jeas than lis own, but found them to exceed 15,000. Thus affair produced a sensatiun North and South out of all pro- portion to the numbers engaged or its actual suidlers val Ss le-wits. Six months later it would have been regarded as an insignificant skirmish. It struck a gloom to every Southern heart Which we can pow afford to simile at, and sent a cuiresponding dinill of joy through the North Tne New York Derald, of the day commenting Opinion Uiat the rebels would in consequence Sas for peace by Uae Tet of the then ensuimy May fue depression oecasigned by tha tetiiinued!

Gencval Stuart had crossed er unexpectedly came in contact withis body of the enemy's infantry which. greatly ,out- numbered him, when a severe fight took place, in which four or five of Stuart's men were wounded. He then withdrew bis men and advanced in another direction to within four miles ot Alexandria, captured four han- dred prisoners, a large number, of wagons, and a quautity of stores, We., besides destroy- ing what could not be removed. Un Lis return he was pursned by the Yan- kees across the Rappahannock, who imme- diately returned after crossing the river. ; It is stated that the reconnoisance of | eral Stuart was to aseertain whether the Yan- kee army was rétreating from Fredericks- burg, in the direction of Alexandria, but it was ascertained that the enemy had only a sina’ force in that direction, and it is the general impression that they have fallen back trom Fredericksburg towards Aquia Creek. There is no torce of the enemy at Warren- ton, but occasionally a small squad of Yan- kee cavalry visit the place, but these are gen- erally captured or quietly dispatched by ade- tachment of the Black liens troop who re-, main in that neighborhood. A few since a portion of this company made 8 scent on a party of Yankees, ahd r seventecn horses and eight wen, and néarly every night they succeed in capturing a few of their pickets. ' The Lynchburg Republican says— General Stuart is said to have gone as far as Aldw, in Loudoun county, in his raid, and to have there captured a nomber of prison- ers. The quantity of commi stores destrey ed by General Stuart is said to have been large. and to have embraced articles in which | the enemy stood much in need? At Aldie he lad a small brush with the , three re- saments strong, wboin be dispersed, killmg a number and capturing over a hundred prison- ers, He pursued them to within 12 miles ot Alexandria, This he accomphshad without tie loss of a man. AFFAIRS 1x tux SOUTHWEST—CHAN- GES IN COMMAND—GENERAL VAN DUKN’S SUCCESS, &c. We gather the following interesting items vl athurs in the Southwest from our latest Southern papers ; The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus has been suspended by proclamation ef Pre- sident Davis in Vicksburg and the eountry within wen miles of the city. The Grenada (Mussissippi) Appeal ‘says soine important changes have oecurred in the different commands in that vicinity.

Jeff Thompson, the- famous partizan fight- er, has turved up again. He reported to General Hoimes the other day, that he had captured seventy thoasand dollars worth of Yankee plunder and sent hima large lot of shoes for his soldiers. He was at the head of | three thousand men, and said tothe Gener- al: “I want to be let alone and have no or- Jers.” ; ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS IN THE RECENT YANKEE RAID 1N TEN- NESSEE. The Lynchburg papers have some addi- tional particulars of the recent raid in Ten- nessee by the Yankees. The Virginian's ac- count says : Phe raid in East Tennessee appears to have been a more important affair than was sup- It seems that it was wade by acav- alry force of the enemy said to be two or three thousand strong, who came from Ken- through Pound Gap. They burnt the railroad bridge over the Holston at Zollicof- fer, not far beyond Bristol. They burnt the wagon bridge over the same river. A con- siderable portion of the track was also torn up, and the hb broken down. . The expedigon started west, and no doubt succeeded in doing a good deal of oth- | er mischief. Jhe bridge over the Holston was quite a long one, and is the same that was destroyed last summer. We believe that about three months were occupied in its reconstruction. ‘The interruption which wil! thus be caused in the transy-urtation of freights will be a very serious matter. This is the main route for Government transportation | east, west and south, as well as for the public. | Passengers-by the Western train yester- _day evening brought some additional partic- ‘alars. After burnirg the brifige at Zollicof- fer, the party passed on to the Watauga and burnt the bridge across the river. The dis- tance be.ween these two peints is pine miles, and there is no engines between.them. The wagon road is, we learn, a.very bad one, so that Ifttle can be done in that way towaais transporting freight. Atter burning the br'dve at Watauga, the party set out on their re- treat. Zollicoffer at Blountville; and the number was estimated at from 1,000 to 15,000! They stretched oat along the road a distance of three miles. They are said to have been led or guided by,a man nained Otey Ward, who formerly resided in Scott county, Virginia, but remeved to Kentucky before the war be- le body of 1,000 sdldiers left Bristol yy. night to endeavor to intercept the | villains on their retreat. We learned from a genth nan just; from Tennessee, that there were but tive compa- nies of the Yankee cavalry, supposed to be not more than 250 men, who made the raid on the bridge at Zollicoffer. They were corm- manded by Major Russell, came from Eastern Kentucky, and had been five days and nights in the saddle.

We invite the paricalir attenon of our readera to the following extracts from a speech receuthy delievered in the Leais'ature of Geor- gia, by the Hon. Linton Stephens, « brother of Vice President Stephens clear verlows not ou- necessary to the defence of the guuntry. Mr. Stephens said : | T beg to refresh the memories of gentlemen | aw to the history of another government, and | ask them if that government deserves contempt? | I allude to a government which has passed | away—not the old United Statee government, bat that other governnio:t which perished in giving birth to the United States government —the government of the old Confede:ation.— Sir, that was a glorious old government. What- _ the States. indignation, | . a can, but world ovet, the achieved our li was the " whose Chief was ltwas the t that successfully . ed the most j governmegt upon the face of thee: It was the government from whose hands we have received ull the biess- ings we have enjoyed, and for which we are are fighting Pay It was a government whose memories. are dear to our hearts. ~ Who will rise up and gay that government deserves the contempt of mankind? and yet, Sir, that government hed no compulsory power over the States. That government had not the ver power, the wantof which geutlemen now af- firm subjects any government to tee contempt of mankind. Their power over the States was advisory oaly, and not compalsory. The eould get no trvops fromr the States but such as the Stutes would send them ; and yet that goyern- ment was adequate to the achievement of lib- erty, and to iteachievement against the great- est powet that existed upon the earth. Can our people close their eyes to the nd jesson which is to be gathered from the history of that goverument? We are warned by gentlemen, and by some of our public journals, against the danger trom the State governments. Sir, I have no such appreheasion. Let gentlemen whe are alarmed from un excess of State rights take comfort frum the history of the old Con- federation. There is no danger from that quar- ter. Centralizatioh, consolidation, central usar- pation, is the roek ‘cpoh which we have split, and it isthe reck whieh we have to dread in the future. We judge the future by the past; and judging our fature by the American past, I proclaim that the danger which we have to apprehend ia not from the States, bat but from central asurpation, which bas ulready resulted in the destruction of the vla United States government, and in our se- cession, and in our repudiation of it un account of that usurpa¥on. Gov. Troup has been quoted as authority for this statement, thatour government would bg deserving of contempt if it lacked the pow- er of conscription. Governor Troup was com- paratively a young man when the uttered that sevumeut. It was vears afterwards that he, us Governor of Georgia, became distinguish- * wala she el ealae ad sedis, is. chek - _- 8 oo Bat the history does not siap there j we have had two conscription lwwa, Has any man dar- ed to urge the ple a. of necessity in favor of the second one? When that one was d, we had jist emerged from « series of — We had no troops whose terms were about to expire. It was a simple question as to the mode of getting saw recruits from home for our armies already in the field. W here was the pecessily in that instance, for disregarding the rights of the citizen, and the rights of the States, by re- peating conscription upon us? Again, sir, the old constitutional mode of ma- king requisitions apon the States was tendered by Mr. Yancey, of Alabama. His prupesition wes voted down—deliberately voted down— npon the plea of necersity, and when no man had the hardihood to allege necessity. 1 tell you, sir, and I tel! the people uf Georgia, thal conecription has been put upon them, and this great wrong has been done to the rights of her Citizens, and to her severeignty, from no neces- sity, from no conviction of neceasity, but from premeditatign and deliberation. It has been a matter of choice with our government, and they intend to adhere toit to the end unless you drive them from it, by rising in the majesty of a free people, and calling them back to the landmarks Of the Constitution. This, sir, is the great re®- son why I ack and beseech an expression from the Legislature of the sovereign State of Geor- gia. apon thid great violation which has been perpetrated apon the righss ef her citizens and of her sovereignty. The object to be accom- plished by sach an expression of opinion op your part is to preventils being drawn into a prece- dent for your subsequent oppression, and to in- duce your rulers to recede from the existing aggression upon your rights.” | = = a From tho Charlotte Bulletin.

In my! “opinion a bushel of China berries | are nearly, if not quite, equal to a_ bushel of corn. The crop is very | abundant, and now, before the win- ter rains, is the time to gather them. | I give my horses a half a bucket fa! of the berries, with a small feed of corn, three times a day, and I boil the seed with peas or other feed for | my cows.

In. their ign in Kentucky, the Bacon Creek, No- fa eee Shepherdsville, (eighteen miles from Louisville,) and other bridges were wotally destroyed for the distance of eighty wiles. The trestle work of the two first was at Muldrough’s Hill, twelve hundred feet long _ end miwety feet high, and burnt and com- pletely, destroyed. pendteee ti Elizabethtown, Gen. Morgan received a communication from the commianid- ing officer of the Yankees to surrender his forees, as he had him (Morgan) completely surroanded. Gen. Morgan iw reply. ordered the Federal commander himselt tu surren- der, and upon his refusing to do <0, opened thre batteries upon the city, after having given timely notice to the women and clue aren to leave. After a bombardment of one hour and a half, the Federal force of seven hundred men surrendered, secunng to usa vast quantity of arms and Governinent stores. The city was considerably damaged by the , oombardwent, bat no citizen was injuiel. In the fight at the trestle, Gen. Morgan captured another regiment, with all their acms and slores. The namber of prisoners captured at Bards- town, Nolin, Bacon Creek and other places amounted to two thousand. ‘At Springfield, General Morgan was <ur- roanded by twenty-ax thousand of the ene- my, and tur a while. it seemed ins situation was desperate, but he escaped with lis cn-. are command. In moving from Springfield to Campbell's ville, Gen. Hollesy, cominanding the Federal fgtces and harrassing Morgan's rear, was kill- ed in ahand to. hand encounter by Lieut. Raston. The fight occurred in a crevk, and the body of Gen. Hollesy was dragger! tin the water and carried to an adjacent house. Two members of his staff also came up with three of Geay M ‘3 men—Capt. Tribble, Lieut. Easton aod a private, Hollexy was attended by two of his staff—Capt. Kuwards and his orderly. A fight at once ensued, in which Gen. Hollesy was killed by Lt. Kaston. Capt.

This hope, however, like those i eAtertained by our foes, |.as van- ished, Virginia, their fourth attempt at invaziba “by armies whose agsured success , was confidently predicted, has met with de- cisive repulse.

On the At- Jantic coast the enemy has been unable ty gain a footing beyond the protecting shelter of bis theeta, and the city of Galvestun las just been recovered by our forces, which suc ceeded not Only in the capture of the yar- con, but of ove of the enemy's vessels of war, which was cagied by boarding parties trom merchant nver steawera Qur fortified posiuons have every where been much strengthened and inproved, affording assur- | auce of our ability to meet, with success, whe | atmost¢ efforts of our enemies, in spite of the | magnitude of their preparations for attack. A review of our history during the two years o( our patienal existence affords ample | cause for congratulation aud demands the most Jervent expresvow of our thaukfu'ness tw the Almighty Father who has blessed vur cause. We are jastified in asserting, with a pride surely not unbecemung, that these Voufeder- ate States have addled another to the lessons taught by history for the instrucuon of man; that they bave afforded another example of the impossibility ef subjugaung a people de- | termined to be free; and have detnonstrated | that no superiority of numbers or available | resources Cag overcome the resistance offered | by such valor io cembat, such constancy un- | der suffering and such cheerful endurauce of | privation as bhawe been conspicuously dis played by this peuple im the defence of their | rights and liberties, The anticipations with | which we eatered inte the contest have now ripened into a cenviction Which is not only shared with us by the couynon opiniva ot neutral nations, but is evideutly forcing itsel! | upon our eneuies thewse'vea If we but mark the history of the present year by resu- late preseverance in the patti we have hiii- erto parsued—by = vigorgus effort in the de- | velopment of all eur resources for defence | and by the coutinned exhibition of the sane | unfaltering courage in’our suldiers aud able conduct io their leaders as bave distinguished the past, we bave every reason to expect that this will be the closing year of the war. | The war, which, in its inception, was waged | for forcing us back into the Union, havioy failed to accomplish that purpose, passed into | a second stage in which it was atiempted to conquer agd rule these States as depen- | dent provinces, Defeated in this secoud de- sign, our enemies have evidently entered up- 0a another, which van have vo other purpose than revenge and thirst tor blood, and plun- der of private property. But however im- | p:icable they may be, Wiey can have neitier the spirit nor the resources required for a, aciinl? bead of a struggie uncheered by any ae success, kept alive solely for the in+ dulgence of mercenary aud waked passions, and demanding so exhaustive au expenditure 4 of blood and Money as has hitherto been im- | posed on their people. The advent of peace will be bailed with joy. Our desire for it has never ban need Our efforts to avoids the war, forced op us as it was by the Just of conquest and the insane passious of ovr foes, are known to mankind. But earnest as has been our wish fur peace and great as | have been our sacrifices and suffering during the war, the deterinination of this people has | with each succeeding month become more ! unalterably fixed, to endure any sufferings | and continue any sacrifices, however prolong- ed, until their mght to self-goverament and | the sovereignty and independence of these | States shall have been trumphantly vindi- | cated and firmly established In this connection the occasion seems not | unsuitable for some reference to the relations | between the Confederacy and the neutral powers of Europe sinoe the separation of these States from the former Union. Biber of the States now members of the lederacy, were recognized by name as in- dependent sovereignties in a treaty of peage, n'the seat of Government, and the United States made simul- * “of - Western ‘of the other. In & Union with nine: ie SE R SS i E E i be, was neither contested: by y separaiod, war made the s ‘ On h An cm em ad oat a, fiod A : Hi t i i . fn Oare y acc that second union, and, when still later, the other seven States, now members of this Coufederacy, became also members of the same Union, it was upon the recognized foot- iug of equal and independent sovereignties ; uor had it then eutered into the minds of wen that sovereign States could be com pelled, by force, to remain members of a con- federation into which they had eutered of their own free will, if, at a subsequent period, the defence of their safety aod bouor shoud, in their judgment, justify withdrawal. The experience of the past had evinced the fuuli- ty ofany renunciation of such inherent rights, and accordingly the provisigus tor perpetuity contaived in the Arucles of Contederation ot 1778 was omitted in the Consutugon of 1789. When, therelure, in 1861, eleven OP the States agato thought proper, lor reasuus saustactory ty theuaselves, lo secede from tbe second union, apd to torm a try one under an aniended Constitunon, they exercised a right’ which, | beiny taberent, required no justification to forergu naueus, and which international law did not perant them to question. The osages of intercourse between nations do, however, require that official communication be made to fnendly powers of all organic change* 10 the constituden of States, and there was ob- Vious propuely iu giving prompt assurance of oat desire to continue amicable relations with all maukind It was under the influ- ence of these considerations that your prede- cessors fur sending to Europe Commisstoners charged with the duty of visiting the capitals | of the different: powers, and making armge- tnents for the opening of more formal diplo- tnatic intercourse. Priag, however. to the arrival abroad of those Commissiuners, the United States had commenced hostilities against: the Confeder- acy by despatching a secret expedition for the reinforcement ef Fort Sumter, after an express promise to the contrary, aud with a duplicity which has been tully unveiled ina former message. They bad also addressed communicaueuos to the diderent Cabinets of Europe, 10 wlavh they assured the atutude of being sovereum over this Confederacy, alleging that Urese independent States were in rebellion agaiust the remaining States of the (union, aud threatening Hurope with manifestations of their displeasure if it should treat the Confederate States as having au in- dependent existence. Ttsvon became known that these pretensions were not considered abroad to be as absured as they were known to be at home. vor had Europe yet learned what reliance was to be placed on the official ) Statemcuts of the Cabinet at) Washington. — The delegation of power granted by these States to the Federal Goveruineat to repre- sent them in foreign intercourse, bad led burope into the grave error of supposing that their separate sovereinnty aud independence had been merged into one erengnty, and liad ceased to bate a distinct exiatence, Under the influence of this. er- ror, which all appeals to reason and listo nical fact) were vainly used to dispel Comiuaissioners were net by the declaration commmot SoVv- that foreigu govertiuents caald not) assume to judge between the contletion representa- uons of the tWo parties ay to the true nature of their previous mutual relations The gov- erument of Great Britain and France aecord- ingly signified their determination to confine themselves to recognizing the self-evident fact of the existence of a war, and to) matn- taining a strict neutrality during the progress. Some of the other powers of Europe pursued the same course of policy, and it became ap- parent that by some understanding, express Ot tacit, Earope had decided to leave the in- itative infall action tobeliig the contest this coutiient, to the Owe powers jist on named, who were recognized to have the largest in- terest involved, both by reason of proxunity and of dhe extent aud intimacy of their com- mercial reladons with the States engaged in war. It is manmtfest that the course of action adopted by Hurope, while based on an) ap- parent refusal to determiue the question, or te side wath party, mn point of fact un actoal devision against oar nights and in favor of the groundless pretensions of the United States. Tt was ao refusal to treat us as an independent government. If we were either was ' independent States, the refusal to. entertain with us the same interpational mtercourse as was maintained with Our enemy was unjust, and was injurious in its effects, whatever may have been the motive which prompted it. Neither was itin accordance with the Ingh moral obligations of that international eode, whose chief sanction is the conscience of sovereign and the public opmion of man- kind, that these eminent powers should de- cline the performance of a duty peculiarly incumbent on. them, from any apprehension of the consequence to themselves. One im- mediate and necessary result of their deelin- ing the responsibility of a decision which our | pretensions of the Wiited States, was the ‘ prolongation of hostilities to which our ene- aged, and which gy but scenes of car- a this continent; and Ww OD the other, such as in history, Had 1 which mankind suffers from the interruption of its peaceful pursuits beth in the old and ; the new worlds. neutral Europe, and uudud advantage con- | At the inc2ption of hostilities the inhabitaats | of the Contederacy were almost exclusively | agriculturalists ; Those of the United States, | to a great exteut, mechanics and merchants. | We had no commercial marine, while their ‘merchant vessels covered the ocean, were withouta navy, wlile they had power- | ful fleets. The advantage which they pos- | sessed for inflicting injury on our coasts aud | harbors was thus counterbalanced in sowie | measure by the exposure of their commerce to attack by private armed vessels. It was | known to Europe that within a very few years past the United States had perempto- jrily retused to accede to proposals for abol- ishing privateering, ov the ground, as alleged by thetn, that nauonsowniny powerful fleets would thereby obtain undue advantage over those possessing tuferior naval forees. Yet no soouer Was war flagrant between the Con- tederacy and the United States than the mar- atiine powers of Europe issued orders prohib- ing either party frow bringing prizes into their ports. This proaibition, directed with apparent impartiality against both belliger- ents, was in reality: efecuve against the Con- federate States alone, for they alone could find ahosule commerce ou the ocean. Merely nominal against the United States, the pro- | nbition operated «with intense severity on the Confederacy by depriving it of the only | means of maintaining’ with some approach ta equality, its struggles ou the ocean against the crushing superiority of naval force pos- sessed by its enemies. The value and eth- cieney of tbe weapou which was thus wrest- ed trom our grasp, by the cowbined action of neutral European powers, iu favor of a nation which professes ovenly its intention of ravagz- lug their commerce by privateers in any fu- ture war, is strikingly illustrated by the terror inspired ainong the cotamercial classes of the’ United States by a single cruiser of the Con- tederacy. One naticnal steamer commanded by officers and manned by a crew who are debarred, by thé closure ot neutral ports, from the opportunity of causing captured vessels to be condemned in their favor as prizes, has sufficed to double the rates of inarine insur- ence in Northern ports and consigned to fore- ed inaction vumbers of Northern vessels, in addition to the direct damage inflicted by captures at sea. How ditheult, then, to over- estate the effeets that must have been pro- duced by the hundreds of private armed ves- sels that would have swept the seas, in pur- suit of the commerce of our enemy, if the means of disposing of their had not been withheld by the action of neutral iu- rope.

The request was address- ed tu our sense of justice, and therefore met We immediate favorable response in the resolu- | ruary, 1862, occurs the followi passage : tions of the Provisional Congress of the 13th Augnst, 1861, by which all the principles an- nounced by the Congress of Paris were adop- ted as the guide of our conduet during the war, with the sole exception of that relative to privateering. As the right to make use of privateer$ was one in which neutral naticns had, as to the present War, no Interest ; as it was aright which the United States bad re- ed to abandon and which they remained at liberty to employ against us; as it was a right of which we were already in actual en- Jovment, and which we could not be expeet- ed to renounce flagrante belfo against an ad- versary possessing an overwhelming superi- ority of naval forces, it was reserved with en- tre confidence that neutral nations could not fail to perceive that just reason existed for the reservation. Nor was this confidence mis- placed, fur the official documents published by the Briush Goverumept usually called * Blue Books,” coutain the expression of the saustaction of that poveriument wita the con- duct of the officials who conducted success- fully the delicate busiuess confided to their charge. These solenin declarations of principle. this Implied acreement between the Coufedergcy and the two powers fast named, have been suffered to remain inoperative against the menaces and outrages on neutral rights, com- mitted by the United States with unceasing and progressing arrogance during the whole period of the war. Neutral Europe remain- ed passive when the United States, with a naval force insufficient to blockade, effective- ly, the coast of au single State, proclaimed a paper blockade of thousands of iniles of coast extending trom the capes of the Chesapeake to those of Florida, and encircling the Gult of Mexico trom Key West to the moath of the Rio Graude. Compared with this monstrous pretension of the United States, the block- ades known in history, under the names of the Berlin and Milan decrees, and the British orders in Council in the years 1806 and 1807, sink into insignificance, Yet those blockades Were justticd by the powers that declared them, on the sole ground that they were re- taliatory ; yet those blockades have since been condemmmed by the publicists of those very) powers as Vielatious of international laws vet those olockades evoked angry vee | imoustiatices thot neutral powers amongst which tie United States were the most con- pspledens: vet these blockades became the catebea ae of the war between Great Britain bend tue United States im Isl: vet tose blochases were one of the principal motives that led to the declaration ot the Congress of Pars ia P8660 in the fond hope of imposing inmng check on the very abuse of mar- time power Which is now renewed by the United States in TS61 and 1862. under cir- culustences and with features of aggravated wrongs without precedent in history. The records of our State) Department con- tain the evidence of the gepeated and formal remoustrances made by this Government to Pnential powers against the recognition of this blockade. Tt has been shown by evidence hot capable of coutradiction, and whieh has furnished in part by the officials of nen- tral nations, (hat the few ports ef the Coufed- been eracy, belore which any naval forces at ail have been stationed, have been mvested se inefficiently. that hundreds of cutries have | been efected into them since the declaration i of the blockade : thatour eneries have the te selves admitted the ine ficiency o. ade a the mest foreible manner, be repeated ollichel Conmplarnts of the sale, to us, of goods ) } } contraband of war asale wheel eoule met hened- realiv to prevent possibiy effect them taterests Wether p ed olockade was saftticrent ° uecr have alleged Jaen blockade effective as the farther and render their paper excu the entrance to one ef oar hatbors hy smk- ing vessels loaded with stone in the channel: | & : ‘ with foreign nations has | liacly lable to be misunderstood.

In a published despatch from | her Majesty's Foreign Offiee, to her Minister ' at Washington, under: date of the 11th Feb- *“ Her Majesty’s Government, however, are of opinion that assuming that ‘the- bloekade was duly notified, and also that #.number-of | ships is stationed and remains at the entrance | of a port satlicient really to prevent ageess to it; or to create an evident er it or leaving it, and that ria shite Se owe voluntarily permit ingress or egress, the fact that various ships may have successfully’ és- caped through it (as in the particular instance here referred to) will not of itself prevent the blockade from being an effectual one by ih- ternational law.” The words which 1 have italicised are. an addition made by the British Gov: ent of its own authority toa principle the exact terms of which were settled with deliberation by the common consent of civilized nations, and by implied Conventjon with this Govern- ment, as already explained, and their effect is clearly to re-open to the prejudice of the Cenfederacy one of the very disputed ques- tions on the law of blockade which the Con- gress of Paris professed to settle. The im- portance of the change is readily illustrated by taking one of our ports as an example.— There is ‘evident danger” in entering the port of Wilmington from the presence of a blockading force, and by this test the lock; ade is effective. ‘Access is not really pife- vented” by the bluckading fleet to the same port, for steamers are continually arriving and departing, so that tried by this test the blockade is ineffective and invalid. The jus- uce of our complaint on this point is so man- | ifest as to leave little room for doubt, that further veflectiou will induce the Brifish gov- ernment, to give us such assurances as wilh efface the paintul impressions that would re- sult from its language, if left unexplained. From the foregoing remarks you will per= ceive that during nearly two years of strag- gle in which every evergy of our country has been evoked for maintaining its very exist~ ence, the neutral nations of hace have pur- sued a policy which, nominally impartial, has been practically most faverable to our ene- mies and most detrimental to us. The exercise of a neutral right of refusin entry into their ports to prizes taken by both belligerents,, was eminently hurtful to the ' Confederacy. It was sternly asserted and maintained, j The exercise of the neutral right of com- i merce with a belligerent whose ports are not \ blockaded by Heets sufficient really to pre- veut access to them, would have been em- /nently hurtful te tae United States. It was cvomplisantly abandoned. The duty of neutral States to receive with i cordiality and recognize with respect any | uew confederation that independeht States may think proper to form, wAs too clear to admit of denial, but its pagtponement was | eminently beneficial to the United States and detrimental to the Confederacy. It was post- poned. ' In this review of our relations with the | neutral nations of Europe, it has been my | purpose to point out distinctly that this Gov- ) ernment has no complaint to make that these | nations declared their neutrality. It could | neither expect nor desire more. The com- plaint is, that the neutrality has been rather j Quminal than real, and Ubat recognized nen - }iral myhts have been alternately asserted and waived in snch manner, as to bear with grea: severity on us, and to confer signal advanta- , ges on Our enemy.

The 290 at the time carried fo gans or other warlike stores, but con sisted merely of the bull, spars and enyines, excepting, of cdurse, coal and other re quisites to enable her to reach ber destina- tion whiich ‘was Tarrissa, one of the Azores ér Western Islands, belonging to Portugal.

Some reasoo required to be assigned to the Portuguese aathorities, for the 290 having anchored ia the bay, and accordingly the excuse furnished to them was that her engines had broken down. This plea was accepted as a valid one, and during the week that intervented between the arrival at Tarissa of the 290 and the bark, the orew of the fermer vessel were engaged ostensibly in repairing ber engines, but really iv prepar ing ber to receive her guns, &e. During this ivterval, large parties of the inhabi- tants of Tarissa made daily visits to tbe 290, their curiosity evideutly excited by ths warlike appearance of what hand laid claim to be ao English merchant vessel.— Maoy pertineat questions were asked by the Portuguese, and were as ingeniusly evaded or met by the otficers of the 290.

Many similar questions were | put, and in like manner answered ; but it was all in vain to attempt to undeveive the Portugues, and they would persist in calling ber a “frigate Lnglesi.” About the lapse of a week from the ar rival of the “290,” the bark above inet tioned sailed in and aneored, ber Captain alleging as a reason to the Portugurcse of ficials that ‘his vessel had sprung a leak. which would require to be repaired ere she could resume her voyage ; and on this anderstancing the Portuguese at unce ber in quaratine, (which in the ‘Azores lasts three days.)

That this ig the true condition of the public mind at pre- sent, and that daily events are developing this sentiment and ripening it for the future, no one who has carelully watched their pro- gress in different localities of the North can help admit. It proves that the perilous hour of the gation is bow upon us, and that we are fast approaching a period when anarchy will be the order of the day unless our rulers take such steps as are vecessary to stay the storin, There are many men here who stand far above the several contests and personal trou- bles af the bour, who consider it more than probable that the winter will not pass away without there being a controversy between the national and State administrations. As evidence that we are fast drifting in that di- rection they cite the fact that the adminis- trauon at Washington have wot comunica- ted with Governor Seyimeur or any of his otticials since Le was placed in oftice; also, the movements of General Wool, calling up- on the tilda to report to bin instead of to the Governor.

VANCK, Governor of the State of North Carolina, do issne this my proclama- tion to afl soldiers from this State, serving im the armies of the Confederacy, who are now ifegally absent from: their colors, commanding them to return to duty wite their comrades, and exhorting them to avail themselves of this opportanity of saving their friends from the dis- grace and infamy which will cling forever to the name of a deserter from his country's cause, and 1 from a felon’s death. Many, after carrying their coun- try’s flag in triumph through various bloody conflictsape making themselves a name, of which their children’s chil- dren might have heen ju-tly proud, have forfeited itall by absenting themselves ut a moment when thefrown State is invaded, and when about to be desolated by a brutal, half savdge fo¢. Now is the time to reinstate by a prompt return to daty. I appeal to them to by their country yet a little longer; and not to sully desertion the bright and glorious reputation of the 8 which they have helped to win on a hundred hard fields: and I appeal to all good and loyal citizens th out to give their iufluence to induce these men to return. Let no one, unmoved by this appeal to his patriotism and honor, suppose that he can remain at home with impani- ty; the full power of the State authorities, aided if need be by the Confederacy, shall be putin force to ar-° rest him and bring him to } unishment after the 10thday of February next, and there shall be no rest for the de- serter in all the borders of North Carolina. And let aone excuse their desertion by declaring that they go hometo take care of their families by hiding like guilty men in the woods by day, and by plundering their neighbors by- night; they only§bring shame and su upon the heads of the innocent, and their Tittle children, when | gray headed old men, will have the finger of seo: ed at them and the bitter caunt will ring in their ears, “ Your father skalked in the woods to keep from fighting ; for his country.”} The State is now trying t6 provide food fer your fami- ira: and | lies, and each county is making a similar prov! us your Chief Magistrate I promise you that the wifeand child of the soldier who is in the army doing his duty, , shall share the lest bushel of meal and the last pound of meatin the State.

The Mobile Register says: We learn from a friend the otier day that a many negroes in the region above have found their way back to their masters, completely disgusted with Yankee freedom and its or i hardships. With the propensity to embelhshment for which the African race are so moted, they tell dol- @peus stories of the treatment they have ex- perienced, and of that which they discovered was in ¥tore for them.

With a few exceptions, they have sume eo from their hasbands, or brothers or sons in the army, and ly enough, with some: from the country, to supply their ts, if eg oe buy subsistence at rates. t, if this infamous blow at our carrercy be not stayed, it is to be fear- ed that, in the course of two months, it will be impossible for any one, private or public, to’buy any thing with Confederate notes — And where is the cause of so sudden and great a depreciation? I would point you to that | aD class of inen in our community to whom the | pues are indebted, large holders of notes. | t may not be the case generally, but it is a/ sem presgrelincte that in the upper part of this | the lower part of Iredell county, the ce- | tusal of Confederate notes in payment of debt | is an every day occurrence. Why, sir, in the ; commanity spoken of, a merchant, (or one who formerly engaged in the business.) who | has large clans upon three-fourths of the cit- | wens of the surrounding country, a man, (to say the best I can of hin.) whose jouyiwent ou monetary matters has ever been consuked | in bis community, and therefore capable ot do- ing great good or evil in the present case, I say, sir, that this man, (call bin trader it you will,) has refused, positively refused, to receive the present curreocy in payment of debt, ex- cept at a diggount of 25 percent. And what will be the result of this speculation in our currency? I expect, in a few days, tu bear of his debtors refusing to receive Coutederate notes for their corn, wheat aud bacon. This is a necessary cousequeuce. If my creditor , refuses lo receive a certain currency 10 pay- ment of iny note, I should ceruiuly be com- pelled to refuse it m exchange for any thing I should have to sell Only let this treasonable conduct become more general, and. iu the naine of our country, I ask, what will become of the wives and children of our poor solders? Even supposing them to have money, under so general a depreciation, 10 would be as trash in their hands. Those who hold the aruches of subsistence, would refuse to receive it. The soldiers helpless dependents at home are re- duced to want. And what then becomes of our army? Js it supposed that the soldier will stand to his post when he knows that his family is suffering from want? Sach patriot- isn would I believe, be very rarely met with. Many may be willing to sacrifice their own lives upon the altar of their country; but, in few, if any, cases, will be found a patriousm so unselfish, so disinterested, as would “ stand to the colors” in the face of a suffering fam- ily Iu a word, with a general and ru:nous depreciation of our currency, comes the total disorgamization of our grand army ; and, with 1 the loss of every thing accomplished by two years of blouly war, and the sad dissp- poiutment of every bope which has nerved the arm of the patriot in batthng tor his hb- erties Oar currency once ruined, and our “ Confederate States of America” can never be established as a government of recoguiz- ed as such in the family of nations.

JOHN QUINCY ADAMS ON COERCION. But, sir, I have digressed. to the utterances of Mr. Adams in relerence to these questions, that we way see whether those who now entertain tie opinions he did are properly to be charged with being actn- ated by a different sentiment trom tuat by which he was actuated. | preshme it will not be denied that Mr. Adams uttered the | words which Tam about to read, LT have not the address in pamphlet orm, but I have it taken from a newspaper | the time and place, and the persons who were present on the occasion. The extract which I shall read is contained in an address before the Historical Soviety of New York, delivered in the city of New York, on the 30th of April, 1839. Mr. Adams argued in the address that no State had a mght to nul- lify an act of Congress—that no State had a right to secede from the Union. I believe every word he said in reference to both these matters, and I choose, now, sir, to believe what he further said on that occasion, when he declared : “ But the indissoluble link of union between the people of the several States of this con- federated nation is after all, not in the right, but in the heart.

This proclismation declares that the Executive government of the United States, including the military aud naval ad- thoritics thereof, will recovuize and maintain the freedu:n of said slaves. The eflect of this declarstion Is, thatafl the people of the South shail at any time hereafter be willing to re- turn to their allegiance to the government of jibe United States, and to liv under the Con- stitution as itis, and in the Union as it was, they shall not be permitted to do so, that an FabSolute condition to theie return shall Ibe the freedua of their slaves and a Continuance ob che war until that freedom is recognized by them. This proclamation \ solemnly. commits this administration to pros- ecute this war lor the freedom of the slave, Feven shou every’ other cause of diffieulty ‘be adjusted; the object for which I verily beheved it was accepted and prosecuted by the adiministrauon fiom the beginuing, and without which no war would have been | waged. More effectually to prevent a re- union, this proclamation invites a servile in- surrection; for, while impotently advising tbe slaves to abstain trom all violence, this is j given npon the condition that they are not opposed by their tasters in their efforts to become free, for, wheu acting in self-delence, they may, even under Presidential advice, J act with violence. ‘And T hereby enjoin upon the persons so declared to be free,” says | 1 the President, * to abstain from all violence, {unless in necessary selfdefence.” These words, uttered amid the fiery ordeal through which we now pass, will “light their author down in dishonor to the remotest generation,” Let hin not lay the flattering unction to his! soul that he will, on account of either “ per- sonal insignificance or signilieance,” escape history, Johu Brown may be forgotten, but ‘the tmemory of Abraham Lincoln will never die, This proclamation further declares that the slaves “ot suitable condition will be re- ceived into the artned serviee of the U.

This is now the -areat and vital question, We see and con- verse daily with men from the ditferent: sec- tions of the State—from East and West, ; North and South, and they all represent to Us Yhat great scarcity exists in their counties | and ueighborhoods. This question is not on- »]y important to North Carolina but to the , Confederacy.

And now that the force of the ene- my 1s weak on our coast the golden oppor- tunity is offered, and we hope that those who conduct and manage military affairs, whose judgment and efficiency we do not presume to question, will not let it pass.

Within the last week, gold has risen from two dollars and a quarter to three dollars anda quarter premiam. The startled public, as they. xaw it leaping upwards pt the rate of fifteen cents a day, trembled for their confederate notes, whose depreciation they measured by the rise in the precious metal. But whatever may be the actual depreciation of Confederate money, and us gald is no longer a standard of value with us, bat an article of merchandize, it is very difficult to estimate that depreciation. It had nothing to do with the recent tremen- dous advance in coin. The real cause of the advance is easily explained, and as a knowl- edge of it will tend to soothe the nerves of the community, already much shaken on the sub- ject of the currency, we take pleasure in lay- ing it before our readers. On the 23d altitho, Judge John. A. Meredith, Starve, ~ of the Circuit Court, of this city, in the course. . of a decision in a habeas c case, which wus fully reported in this paper, said that no- thing could be clearer than that by entering ihe Ynilitary service of a country. uid gave it as his opinion, that every citizen. of Maryland, and every foreigner who had once eniisted in our acmies, it mattered not for how brief a pe- riod, was u fit subject for conscription, if be- tween the ages of eighteen and forty, and the tearned Judge expressed the hope that the War Depastment would at onee conscribe all persons thus liable. This judgment it is that has sent gold up. The hundreds of Lrish, Ger- mans und Baltimoreans, who after a twelve months taste of military service, left the ranks at the expiration of their terms of enlistment, and settled in this city to prey upén soldiers aud citizens, each after his kind—some as grogshop keepers, others as hucksters and gam- blere—have found their sanctuary rendered unsafe by this decision, and are hastily making their arrangements to flee beyond the reach of | the enrolling officer. Two things are needful to enable them to reach a piace of safety - United States gold and a from General Winder. The latter can be obtained by dint of an hour or two’s rending and tearing of one another at the General's front or back door, and being well supplied with Confederate notes, which their long exemption from military duty giveu them every opportunity to abeamulate, they have eagerly paid any priee of gold that the brokers choose to demand. This sudden demand upon a market at no time abundant, but now continually drained by blockade run- ners, had the effect of starting the price up- ward, the same cause continuing to operate, it hax continued to rise until yesterday it reach- ed the enormous premium of three dollars and twenty-five cents, : ' f We are aware that there are those who at- tribute the rise gd irs to the measures recent- ly passed by the United States Congress, but we believe that the true history of its enhance- ment in this city is as we have given it above. —Richmonl Examiner, March 5.

Setting aside consideration of passion, it ienough to know that Lincoln has been invested with sovereign power over one of the greatest countries of the world, on the expressed yround that he will destroy the Southern people, aud take their property for distribuueu among his ful- lowers.

Therefore, while he stands on the bad eminence where he is now placed, he will fight us with and inveterate deterinina- dn snd with uschangeble cruelty. While Lancoln is President-dictator, and the North coatains a maa or a dollar, they will be used to carry on the war. It is certain that the war will last as long as Lincoln's Government.

Never did female in Justry and selfsacrifices merit higher admiration and appreciation than in the present case. The needle in their bands has been incessantly employed in promoting in its way the bodily comfort of the soldier—ani without this de- votivua of theirs to our sacred cause, what Would have been the condition of the army ? Would it have been able to meet the glory it has covered itself with, but for the needle- work which has been turned out by the La- dies’ Aid Associations and the thousands of individuals of the sex besides, who lave toil- ed by: day and by night, in making up gar- ments and in knitting socks for the soldiers ? How many of the latter wonld have per- ished or been disabled for service vy the pier- cing blasts, and the numbing frosts and snows of winter, if the women had not interposed as they have done for their protection aud relief? How many bayouets would bave been useless but for the needle? To the Ladies of the South, then, do the Govern- ment aod army owe a debt of gratitude that ean never be forgotten. It is only to express briefly and imperfectly our sense of the in- estimable value of their contributions to the cause of Southern independence in the assist- ance they have voluntarily and freely ren- dered to our aiius, that we write this article.

It is not all of war to fight. The bayonet and its kindred weapons are not the only ones by which battles may be won and ana- tion saved, Undoubtedly it is one of the ex- sential, indispensable instrutnentalities for the achievement of triumphs, but for its efficiency it is t upon other agencies. The soldier must be fed, and therefore the fartn- er’s labors, form an importani elernent of bis strength, He must be shod, and therefore the tanner, the courrier and the co-dwainer are important auxiliaries to him. He must be clothed—therefore the cloth manutacturer and the garinent-maker are necessary to this | eod. This latter allusion brings us t) the point upoe which we propose to make a few remarks, viz: the vital and inseparable con- nection between the needle and the bayonet, aod the respective parts which they play ir che great drama of war.

Sheep enrich laad by the manufacture of considérable quantities of excellent man- ure, A farmer of long experience in sheep hasbandry, thought there was no manure 20 jag as that of sheep, and (of which there is vo doubt,) that none drop- by. thathe animals upon the land suf 4 so datle by waste from exposure.— A German agricultural writer has calculat- ed that the droppings of one thousand | sheep during a single night, would inanure | an sere sufficiently for any crop. By asing | a portable fence and moving the same from timé to time, a farmer might manure | a distant field with sheep, at less expense | than that of carting and spreading barn | manure. The value of sheep to the farmére is much enhanced by due attention to their wants. flocks kept together are seldom prof. | itable, while smal] assorted flocks always | pay well, if fed as they should be.

By this process the remaining whey ie absorbed aud when the cloth bedomes satorated it is removed and adry one placed in its stead. In the course of the day and night this process removes the whey as thoroughly as it can be done by pressing. The next morning the milk is prepared in the same manner and the card packed closely upon the top of that prepared the day previous ; and the same method pursued in separating the moisture. This provess is repeated till you have a cream pot full of cheese,— It is thus seen to be a convenient metkod where the dairy-woman has the milk of bet one or two cows. If it work well it is an important discovery. If it fail, it need not be a very disastrous failure. It is a very successful wav of preserving the cheese frown flies and mice, as it can be perfectly inclosed and kept from sach geotry, and from the wir and light. We have seen but one experiment of this kind, and this promises to bé a saceessful one. The cheese appeared as free from moisture and as solid as that made by the press.

An investiga- tion was ordered and the charge against Mr. Ruffin wag pot made good, yet it appears body. bas-awindied the Government vut of-efew uiillion’. Buch ai Occurrence is con- sidered # snail matter at Richmond however, and. will hardly cause much concern in offi- cial or other circles, as the thing is common. Our attention has just been called to a stuall | affair of the kind in which one Moses, a de- ecendant of the tribe of Israel, was coucern- ed. _ The Braminer of, Friday bas the follow- ing particulars of the affair :— Progress. The Postoffice Department Embezzlement — The Demon ion at the Bottom of —We all esterday to the arrest of | Perry Moses, a Clerk ia the Dead Letter Bu- | reaa, of thé Postoffice Department on the ; charge of abstracting letters therefrom, and appropriating the money found therein to his own purposes, Since this denouement, it has beca ascertained that the abstractions have been yoing vn tor a long time, as many As 8X os eight months, and the amount ap- propriated ia that period by Moses, must have reached a good many thousand dollars. | It was kiiown that the accused was laryely engaged io speculation, and after the arrest on Tuesday last, it was ascertained that he had forwarded twenty-seven hundred dollars | nain, with which he probably honestly sup- | hed his tamily with the necessaries of |e. | fn the recent mncrease he received fifteen hun- | dred dollars, when. in common with others, | he fella cum to the mania of speculation When in business, belure Wie war, in Soath Carglna, he failed two or threetimes, but such was the regard of bis creditors for his bonésty, that they allowed him to go on as usual without pressing him for payment.

It was then the decoy letter was thrown in to trap him, and the bate—two fitty dollar nutes—was too teinpting, and his | crimes wus exposed, the bills, designated with | @ private mark being upon his person. He | then adwmitied to the abstractions of between two and three hundred doliars, but po more.

Our battery threw 24 of these a minute, and as we had the exact range of every part of the field, every shot told with tnghttal ef- fect. But the eneiny were not at all daunt- ed—they marched steadily on, and hailed a perfect torrent of balls upon us. Why we, as weil as our horses, were not shot down, will forever remain a mystery to me. We did not mind the leaden hail, however, but kept pouring our case shot into the dense masses of the foe, who came on in prodigious and overwhelming forces. And they fought splendidly, too. Our shot tore their ranks wide open, and shattered them asunder in a manner that was frightful to witness; but they closed up again at once, and came on as steadily as English + veterans. When they got within 400 yards, we closed our case shot and opened on them with canister; and such i destrucuon [never elsewhere witnessed, At each discbarge great gaps were made in their ranks —tadeed whole compaiies went down j before that murderous fire, but they closed {up with an order and discipline that was awe- They seemed to be animated with the courage of despau, blending with the | hope uf a speedy victory if they could, by an | ovegwhelming crush, drive us from our posi- ton, Tt was awful to see their ranks foru and shattered by every discharge of canister that we poured right into their faces, and while their dead and dying lay in piles, clos- ed up and sull kept advancing right in the face of the fire. At one time, three lines, one behind another, were steadily advancing, and three of their flags were brought inio range of our guns shotted with canister. * Fire!” shouted the gunner, and down went those three flags, and a gap was opened through | those tree lines as ifa thunderbolt bad torn | through thetn, and the dead lay in swaths. , They at once closed up and came steadily on, neve halting or wavering, ight through the woods, over the fenee, Uirough the field, right atus to our guns, and sweeping everything Whea ; uspinog to Charleston, South Caroliua, by express, to | be invested in blockade gouds for the Rich- mond inarket.

F. J. -Myses, a member of the State Seuate, and one of the most eminent lawyers of the State. Swe sympathy is expressed for hia from the fact that ote of his sons was killed in the batdes of the Chickahominy, and ano- ther severely wounded. .

Hon. Simon Cameron has resigned the post of American Minister at the Court of St. Petersburg. In his letter to the President, of January 23, he says: “ When I undertook this responsible trust you will remember that the end of the rebellion was supposed to be near at hand. Our military preparations were vo stupendous; the spirit, unity and determi- nation of the people and Government so man- ifest, that the public enemy and foreign na- tions seemed to concur in this general opin- ion. I was not indifferent to the consequent change in our domestic affairs. The conspi- tacy has assumed such formidable and threat- ening proportions that he cannot conscien- tiou a avoid staying athome. Insidious and open efforts are everywhere made by reck- lesa, treasonable leaders, to divide the people of the free States. The hope of the rebels is in want of harmony among the people of the’ loyal States. I will believe overy means should be resorted to erush this conspiracy. We can have no peace that is not a conquer- ed , and I have in faith that we shall the traitors and vindicate the supre- macy of the Federal Constitution, The Rev peror of Russia fervently trusts we may emerge from our struggle with an undivided @overnment.

The | mesaage is not an essay on this subject, but is all the more instructive for not being an essay. * * This message is calculated to raise the {character of Southern State government in English estimation. , At all events, 1t throws much light upon the internal workings of the Confederate political systetn.” This is high praise trom a journal: which views the message from a position unaffected by prejudice or party fechng. Indeed, the pablication in tull of the document in the Jn- dez, is in itself a compliment to the State and to our worthy Governor. —N. C. Standard.

Gough against F. M. Fisk, whose lawful wife she cla'ms to be. A similar petition was filed in 1855 by the same party, but was subsequent- ly compromised and withdrawn on the pay- mem of a considerable sum to petitioner.— The parties have not hved together for many years, for defendaut had the reputation of be- ing unusually susceptible to passional attrac- tions, and inclined— = tO rove | Free and unquestioned in the paths of love.” | At present he is supposed to be living | elsewhere in the Confederacy, and his large | estates bere have been completely tied up by the confiscation anisequestration, — Find- ing that creditors of every kind were making a dead set against the property of her erst lord and master, Mrs. Fish, nee Mary Ann Gough, coneluded doubtless that she might as well have a finger in the pie, so she re- newed her old suit. She is represented in the prosecution by Thomas Howard, Esq., her counsel in the original case, and seldoin have the dull records of her courts been re- lieved by a legal document of such romantic interest and literary merit as the petition fil- ed in the premises.

N Yankee Barbority.—A letter wad te- ceived in Lynchburg says the Virginiaa,- from a responsible lady in Fauquier, stag ing “tbat a hospital in Georgetown, con- taining 500 negroes afflicted with small pox, was burned up a day or two sinee. This shocking affair, attrybuted by the Yankees to accident, is not credited. But is believed to have been the result of a cold blooded purpose to exterminate the negroes and the disease by the summary but exeerable design of burning the build- ing and the negroes. If this report-be true, and from the respeetable source from which it comes to us,/we have no reasou to doubt it is probably the blackest deed in the long and black catalogue of crimis of which the Yankees have been guilty:® 2a With the addition of at jeast five hundred millions of dollars to the respurees of their Treasury, says the Richmond Ex- aminer, there is no impedtmestt te the: Washington Government continuiiagy tite | war, on the present gigantic scale, for | another season; and if the effect of their conscription bill were only to keep im the field the troops that would otherwise soem be disbanded, the prosecution of the war for at least another year would be essuredk It becomes the South to dismiss all thought of peace, aud to prepare for resisting the most formidable, becarse the most desper- ate, onset. that we haye yet had to sustain from the baffled and exasperated, but none | the less determined foe. ’ Warcn Out.— We understand that the smoke-hous of Mr. Eml. Reich, who lives in the vicinity of Salem, was broken into on Saturday night last, and some twenty- eight pieces of bacom stolen therefrom.— We are not aware of any clew having heen discovered as to who perpetrated this theft. The public prints of this State are almost daily chronicling deeds of this ehar- acter which sbould certainly be a warting to all who have property in insecure places. Rogues now-a-days can inflict more injury than common, in purloining property which money cannot buy. So be wiseand watch- ful.— Winston Sentinel. GAREDNING IN CAMP. The Charleston Courter, in commenting upon a suggestion of its correspondent “ Se- cessionville” in relation to the planting of ve- getables near all our camps, adds: “The notion that labor is less honorab!e than miltary service proper, is and should be sensi- ble men, which we doubt. Were not the lines and batteries which turned back the Yankees on the Potomac constructed chiefly by thy labor of the stout arms that manned the guns behind them? This we believe was the case at Shiloh and other places Westward, and ; will ever be the case when proper occasions demand. The good volunteer is as ready to work as to fight, when the working is neces- sary to prepare for fighting advantageously and successfully.” We entirely agree with the good sense of the suggestion and the Courter’s remarks, and take the liberty to add, that the species of labor referred to, is not only as honorable, in the largest senses, a8 any vocation, but will re dound to the pleasure and comfort of the cul- tivators. It will prove an agreeable recres tion to the dull routine of camp life, and in a sanitary point of view, immense in its results ‘Yn fact, if the officers will lead off with the “Shovel and the Hoe,” the boys will learn for the Treasuret of the State to pay destroyed by fire on the 27th ulé, C., owned by Messrs.

Taxation and the Currency.—On this sub- yect the Richmond Examiner has the follow- wg : The Confederate States Congress 1s occu- with the subject of taxation. It is ngtit and expedrent, in such circumstances as those which now surround us, to impose full taxes. We are giad to learn that upon this noint there is a strong coneorrence of purpose among members of Congress. But we equal- ly regret to bear that the weak-nerved mem- , bers of that body ave disposed to resurt to the shift of permitting State assumptions of the taxes whieh they will thus pretend to levy. Of course the States which thus as- sume will merely borrow the money which they will pay ‘mm this liquidation. The only effect of t | eae will be to substitute the States as owers in the money marts wm place of the Confederate States. Instead of diminishing the amount of public paper | now outstanding, this device merely changes | the name of the paper that is put out. e evil now complained of, and seriously felt by the people, is the amount of public bonds and notes that are upon the masket. Taxation is recommended as the proper remedy.

At the cottage door the grandsire, Sits pale in his easy chair, While the gentle wind at twilight Sports with his silvery hair. A maiden is kneeling beside him ; Her fair young bead is pressed, Ta the frst wild passion of sorrow, Against his aged breast! And far from over the distance The faltering echoes come, Of the fiying blast of trumpet, And the roll of the rattling drum. And the grandsire speaks in a whisper “The end no man can see, But we gave him to his country, And give our prayers to Thee.” The lark sings in the ureadows, The gesemine scents the room ; And o'er the apple orchard - The sweet pink blossoms bloom. Bat the grandsire’s chair is empty, The cottage is dark and still ; There's a nameless grave on the battle- Gield, And a new one under the hill.

Address of Gen. D. H. Hill on assuming Com- mand ia North Carolina. Weapquaarree’s Goipsporo’, N. C., February 26th 1863. The undersigned has been placed in charge of the Troops in North Carolioa — Ia assuming command, he would address a few words of exbortation to bis forces: Souprers! Your bratal aod malignant enemy is putting forth efforts unexampled im the history of the world. Having fail- ed to subjugate you, be is maddened with the thirst for vengeance, and is pushing forward bis foreign mercenaries to plunder your property aad lay waste your homes. But his marauding bosts bave been so of- ten beaten and baffled, that they are now discouraged and demoralized. Should you *tbe able to check them everywhere for the wext sixty days, the three bundred thou- ~eand whose time expires in May, will not re-enlist and the war will end before July. Should the scoundrels however, gain a siu- substantial success at any ove point, war will be prolonged during the entire administration of Lincoln. It becomes a solemn duty then, to labor and fight du- ring the next two months, as we have pever done before. We must make the war unpopular with the mercenary ran- dals of the North, barrassing and annoying them. We must cut down tosix feet by two, the dimensions of the farms which these plunderers propose to appropriate. ¥ou will have to endure more hardships, end fight more desperate batides than you would have done were your ranks proper- ly filled. Our cities, towns and villages, are full of young and able-bodied skulkers, wearing the semblance of inen, who have dodged from the battle field under the pro visions of the exemption bill. of the fair sex, ana the contempt of all honorable men, have not been able to drive these cowardly miscreants into the ranks. So long as they can fatten upon the miseries of the country, and shelter their wortbless carcases from Yankee bullets, they are insensible to shame. But a day of retribution awaits these abortions of bu- manity. Their own descendants will exe- crate his memory,the fioger of scorn is pointed, and the taunt is uttered, “ he is the son, or grandson, 0? great grandson, of an exempt and extortioner.” Do your full duty, Soldiers, and leave these poltroons and vii jos to the execra tion of posterity. All commanding ofti cers are hereby enjoined to furnish the names of officers and men who distinguish themselves, in pitched battle, and skir mishes. Those so distinguishing them selves, will be recoummended for promotion god their vames published in the principal pe of their respective States. Ne iofantry have to bear the brunt of every battle, and to endure special bard- ships in campaign. ‘The post of danger and of soffering is the post of bun- or. If our liberty be ever won, it will be due mainly to the indomitable piuck aod sturdy endurance of our beroie Infantry. The Confederate Artiliery has bebaved most nobly, and the wonder is, tbat witb inferior guns and ammunition, it has been able to cope successfully with the splendid armament of the enemy. It has been a , however, to contend with the Yankee artillery. Reserve your fire, as at pe pian ge. the masses of lofaotry, do pot raw your guns just when The secon they are beoor ing feria. Ab is glori- ra te Iti lagraceful to save jem ‘by fe tiri from the + ars ee panel the eyes and ears of the army. The safety of the entire command depends upon the vigilance, and the faithfulness of their reports. The off cers and men, who permit themselves to be surprised, deserve to die, and the'Com- manding General will spare noeffyrts to se- cure them their deserts. Almost equally criminal are the scouts who through fright, bring io wild and sensgtional reports.— They wit! be court-tmartialed for coward- we, 1 Many opportunities will be afforded to | the Cavalry to barrass the enemy, cut off | his supplies, drive in his pickets, d&c.— Those, who have never been in battle, will thus be enabled to enjoy the novel sensa- tion of listening to the sound of hostile | shot and shell, and those who have listen: | ed a way off, wi'l be allowed to come some miles nearer, and compare the sensation | caused by the distant cannonade with that | produced by the rattle of musketry. D. H. HILL, Major General. } } A Beld Volee Against Lincoln. | Just before the adjournment of the Nor- therp Congress, aad while the bill imme- diately pending the writ of babeas corpus was pending, Mr. Wall, of New Jersey. made a stirring protest against investing Lincoln with the powers of Dictator.— Speaking of the effect of this bill, he said : He considered the bill as the most dan- generous to the liberties of the people.— With the conscription bill, it would give the President more than dictatorial ffow- ers, and would open the front doors of the bastiles to immure innocent men. It was the embodiment of a pestilent heresy that the power of suspending the habeas cor- us was vested in the President. The last the Constitutition would disappear. Dusing the last two years every right of the citi- zev lad been violated. Men were impris- oned without a cause, and refused bail, and incarcerated for months. Every con- stitutional outpost was driven in, and eve- hope of liberty would be gone if this bill | was passed, and all the old land marks of | i : ge oh to frat pray with Saiponted eatvestnans and versality, Amid much that is discouraging to the pious, in view of abounding these national a interpreted by Seip w tural examples inspire hope that | vouchsafe to the intercessions of the faith: y) ful few our deliverance and: liberty. O, my countrymen, l«t us reverence the Lord of Sabaoth, and let us remember that our country is to be preserved and perpetuated not by scienge, wealth, patriotism, popala- tion, armies and navies, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord. » “* Hear ne, Asa and all Judah and Benjamia ; the Lord is with you while ye be with with him, acd if ye seek Him, He will found of you ; but if ye forsake Him, He will eb forsake you.” DAVIDSON COLLEGE It is gratifying to learn that this insti- tution is in'active operation notwithstand- ing the troubles in which the country is involved, and thatit enjoys a measure of | prospenty which, all things considered, is highly encouraging. More than sixty studeuw, are ip actaal attendance ov its exercises. These, of course, are for the most part under the usual age for Students of College. Yet the two lower classes are formed and are pursuing the regalar course uf stuly. The remainder of the students are ic the Preparatory Departments, in which they enjoy the advantage of being instructed by two or more of the Professors, each in bis Department. Without some calamity overwhelming the cuuntry, there will be a large number to enter the Col- lege proper, frum the Preparatory Depart- ment, at the beyioning of the next cold legiate Vear. li will be seen from an advertisemen, that the young men who have been disabled in the war, aud who are pot able to de- fray the expenses of obtaining an educa- tou, will be admitted into the College or Preparatory Departinent without the usual fees for tuition, dc.

There are and will be many young ry personal guarantee of the government cause and released; avd to this day he had never been able to learn any cause.— He remembered what a shudder went over the civilized world when King Bomba im- prisoned a few young men in the dun geous of Naples; and though the dun- geons were tilled, the vengeance of an out- raged people rose to vindicate their nght. and to-day Naples was redeeme!. and the Bourbon family driven into exile. geance was certain, sooner or later, to overtake the oppressor. This bill proposed to shelter the Presi: dent and his subordinates from the conse- quences of their unlawful acts and to le- galize illegality. The right to suspend the writ of habeas corpus was exclusively le- gislative, and was never granted, or intend- was a libel on the wisdom and patriotisin of our fathers to suppose that the Execu- tive had any such power as to suspend this writ GODLESS POLITICIANS, BY BISHOP PIERCE.

Mercury, | writing from Vicksburg, March Ist., gives | a description of Yazoo Pass, whicb at this time, when we are bearing so much of that locality, may be found interesting : About 150 miles above Vicksburg is the Yazoo Pass, well Khown to steamboat men, which opens upon the Mississippi six miles below Helena, and again tifleen miles below that city. At high water the Miss- issippi_ partially empties into this Pass, whence it runs: into one of the upper branches of the Sunflower river, thence in- to the Yazoo, and so into the Mississippi again. It is in contemplation by General Grant to so clear this passage that a fleet of gunboats can pass down the Sunflower and capture the large fleet of N. OPleans boats which were run up that small streara last summer. , This would enable them to get into the Yazoo above Haine’s Bluff, and thus cut off the very. little supplies which the Rebels are gotting by that river. The steamboats, too, if they could be ob- tained, ,would be very valuable at this time. Gen. Gorman and another officer havd surveyed the Pass, and their decision will be apparent in a few days. A success of this sort would be great source of dis- comfit to the garrison at ae and ‘materially assist in its reduction. e riv- er will be high enough to help us for five GENERAL PILLOW. Gen.

He stated that Gen.

His answer was: “ General, whilst I thank you for your courteous: letter, let m4 say to you, the property your Government bas taken from me was my own.

Judge Gilliam’s first Court was a Court of Oyer and Terminer held in this place. The first case brought on was the trial of America, Daniel«ant Solomon, three slaves, for the murder of Mr. Joho Lock- hart, a well known citizen of this county. America and Daniel were convicted of the murder. Solomon as an accessor before the fact. Mr. Norwood appeared for Daniel, America and Solomon having no council, the Court assigned Mr. Nash to defend America and Mr. Turner to defend Solomon. The next arraignment was Lucian’ and Allen, for tha murder of Mr. Isaac H. Strowd. The owners of the slaves having refused to employ council, Messrs. Nash and Turner were assigned by the Court to defend the prisoners. On Saturday night about 12 o'clock the Jury returned a ver- dict of guilty as to both. On Monday the five criminals were brought into Court for sentence. The judgment of the Court was that they be hungpon Friday, the 10th day of April next. The sentance was pronounced in a most fe@ling and impressive manner, ac companied with much good advice to the prisoners, which it is to be hoped will have a salutary effect in preparing them for the awful fate that awaits them. A new trial bas been granted to Solo- mon. The Court adjourned on Monday.

WATORMAN MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 28. 1563. —— ome A FEMALE RAID. ‘Between 40 and 50 soldiers’ wives, foll8w- ed by a numerous train of curious female ob- servers, made an attack on several of our bu- siness men last Wednesday, whom they re- garded as speculators in the necessaries of life, for the purpose, as we are informed, of demanding an abatemeut in prices, or forci- bly taking possession of the goods they re- quired. The first house visited was Mr. M. Brown's. They demanded he shoald sell them flour at $19.50 per barrel. This he declined to do, alledging that his flour bad cost him more than twice that sum. They then said they were determined to have the flour, and would take it, unless he would sell it to them at the price Government was paying for it; aod accordingly went to work with hatchets on his store room door. After some time spent in vain efforts to open the door, a parley was had, and Mr. Brown agreed to give them, free of-charge, ten barrels, if that would sa:- isfy them. They accepted the offer, the flour was rolled out and hauled off. They next visited Mr. Jobn Enniss, of the firm of Henderson & Enniss, and madé a simi- lar demand on him. He gave them three barrels of flour. They next calied on Mr. Frankford, who, it is reported, told them he had not been speculating in provisions, and that he now had nothing in his store but himself ‘ so la- dies if you take any thing here, you will have to take me—yes, take me I'!l go with you any where you please.” They next called on Mr. H. Sprague Mr. S. received them in his usual calm and courteous manner, and gave them a barrel of molasses. They also called on Mr. David Weil, whom they charge with having run up flour from $40 to $50, and who was supposed to have a large lot at the depot to ve shipped South, It turned out however, that he had none within their convenient reach. He gave them a sack of salt. They nex: called on Mr. Thos. Foster, who was advertising salt on consignment. He told them the salt belonged to a man in Wil- mington, and that he had no interest in it be- yond that of an agent. That he felt it to be his duty to protect it, &c. and that rather than they should take it, he would give them $20 out of his own pocket. ome one in the crowd answered—“ we will take that, and the salt too.” Mr. Foster replied, that te would take the responsibility of also giving them one sack of salt. They accepted this offer and left. They also called at the door of a building of force for a Guvern- | Carolina Treasury notes which some of them | torily refused in payment for purchases!— . formerly vccupied by Mr. Simmons, but we j think they found nothing there. | Avd finaliy they visited the North Carolina i} —to have persisted ia entorc- | | depot, in search of flour supposed to be’org to Mr. Weil, and other parties believed to be speculators iv this and other provision articles. They tound, and took forcible possession of, ten barrels flour belonging to some une in , Charlocte. | This completed the day's wotk. The next morning was spent in settling the question of | division—a delicate, and as it proved, a difti- {cult question. There was some disputing, | flashing of eyes, and some angry words. It | was, however, accomplished, whether satis- | factorily to all or do, we cannot say. | This movement was aimed as a blow at the practice of speculating in provisions, Whe- ther or not it fell on proper subjects is not for us to determine. Indeed, that is a question which none should presumptnonsly dect « These proceedings were also caused, in | part, by pinching want. It is said there are many families in this town and vicinity who Lave not tasted meat for weeks, and some times, months together. Of course they have ‘ had no butter, molasses, ot sugar. Many of | them have no gardens and consequently no | vegetables of their own raising; and the ‘scarcity and high price of potatoes, peas, | beans, &c., render it extremely difficult if at all possible, for them to obtain these articles, those places against’the common enemy, re-,; What, then, have they to support life? Bread {and water! Breads the only thing with their limited means they could provide for themselveg; and at present prices, it is not very easy for even the industrious poor to provide this. They certainly cannot af- ford to buy flour at $50 per barrel. Fortu- nately, our soil is peculiarly adapted to corny, | which, as a staff of life, is not excelled in the | world. And we believe there is enongh of | this invaluable grain in the country to save us ‘from suffiring. The only difficulty about it | 1s in distributing it among the people. Bpec- ! ulators must be prevented from sending it oot of the reach of our needy people. Av- | aricious horders of grain and otder provisions, | for high prices, must open their eyes to the | danger of their selfish and covetous practices. | It is impossible for the poor to endure the | hardships aod privations these two classes have imposed uponthem. They cannot, they will pot ; and itis the part of wisdom to re- cognise the truth and provide against the dan- “| not to those who can pay the highest and every one'dine, Those who have surplus’ provisions * uitist’ make up their minds to’ put themselvegonghort allowance sake | of the cothti@d™ good, and ‘sell their ‘surphis" prices, but to‘those whose wantsare pressing. The darkest days of ‘our are coming om, The times which try men’s souls are at hand, and cursed be he who is not willing, not only to stake his property, but bis life for the sake of our cause. The Commissioners appointed by the County Court to administer retief to sol- diers’ families, and who were. authorised to use the credit of ‘the County for this purpose to the amount of $5u,000. will be held ac- fon ela in large part for this first demon- stration of lawlessness? How have they discharged their trast? Have they any stores of corn or other provisions to distribute out to the destitute ‘families of soldiers? None whatever. They thought it best to give them the money, aud let the heads of families par- chase their Own supplies where it would suit them best. An honest conviction, no doubt, but the plan has been subject to the grossest abuses for months;and has failed im accom- plishing the end-designed. Many have ap- plied for and obtained money who were not in need, whilst helpless and suffering ones in remote parts of the county have perhans re- ceived nothing.

Nex: Friday is the day designated in the President's Proclamation to be observed as a day of Fasting and Prayer. There will be ser- vices in the Methodist Church in the fore- noon, at which time notice will be given of other services if any are had. We have noticed that there are crowds of people in our streets, on these occasions who seem to feel po interest whatever m their proper observanee. They never go near the church, and altogether, treat the matter with indifference. This conduct is only consistent with infidelity and atheism—a disbelief in the Christian religion or in the existence of a living and trne God. And yet we think nine- ty-nine vut ofa hundred of those to whom we allude woul&promptly deny they are either infidels or atheists. Will they not, next Fri- day, put this question to themselves: Am I doing nght in refusing to humble myself be- fore God. ny Creator, when asked to do it as on this day ? The Alnfighty has never yet undertaken to hamble pride but he has done it effectually, whether in nations, communities or individu- als; and sooner or later every proud thing in his Government will be brought down into the dust. me gerous one, and mus, if persisted in, lead to the gravest consequences imaginable. In the | first place, 1t is unjust to the few whose pru- | perty is taken. Otters who have done as | much or more to bring them in trouble, are | unfairly permitted ‘) escape. For instance, | it was the duty of the Commrssioners for re- | heving soldiers’ fanrties to have practiced common foresight ard purchased provisions for their use, so thet nove would: be left: to suffer by heartless sfeculaturs. You passed by these Comngissioners on Wednesday and made your detnand on those you consid- ered speculators. The latter have been doing what every body lov-s to do, to wit: mak- ing money. The forner have proved ineffi- cient and unworthy ‘he trust committed to their hands for your benefit. Was your de- cision just? The Conmisstoners are sharp business men in their own affairs, and stood as good a chance to look ahead for you, as the speculators to look abead and make mo- ney for themselves. Again, many a speculator whom you did not visit, is as guilty as those you did visit. It is not fair that one should be made to an- swer and another alowed to escape. All should be treated alike. But bow will you do this? Some bhve made thousands of dol- lars, others only hundreds. How will you grade your demands soas to make them bear equally onall? It ought so to bear, for m is manifestly wrong to deal partially with them. What a difficult task it would be to proceed upon this rule! and yet itis the only fair one. In fact, your plan can't be made to work equally unless you could require every man in the couwmunity to make a truthful exhibit of his business transactions since the war begun; and without equality, there will be just cause of complaint, there will be bitterness of feel- ing, and speedily we shall see wrangling, and deadly strifes amougst' ourselves ; for these are the fruits of Jawless proceedings. We shall then destroy é Other out-right, and fall wn easy prey to theunprincipled and cru- el enemy who is seeking to sutyugate our country. The County of Rowan at the beginning of the war, appropriated $50.000 for the relief of soldiers’ fumilics The Legislature has also made a tiberal appropfiation of which Rowan will receive some sixteen or seventeen thous- apd mee. This if properly managed, will certainly save the beneficiaries from extreme suffering. But this vision, handsome as it is, will not admit of afy considerable num- ber depending on it alore. We must all work, and work hard, to support ourselves by pro- ducing our own food and clothing, as far as possible. This fund is intended as a help, and not as a mam dependence. Indeed it would be impossible for the County or State @ sui port the people in idleness, All must tes and make out with as little as possible. Our soldiers in the field are often reduced to half and even quarter rations. Let us at home cheerfully submit to the same hardship, and persevere as they do, hoping in God for a final triumphant issue out of all these our present sore trials. It will surely come if we are faithful to ourselves. But in God's name let us not fall to devouring each ether by mobs, of this sunty, gave us, a few days ago, ahen with the legs.

Axo@irk Woxprrn.—Mr. Heary Canup has | given 1 a ben's egy which has on ita repre- sentani@ of the sun. The fignre is natural, and nojartificial, Whether it is intended to nvorcedt the rising sun of the Southern Con- federacg or the setting sun of the old United States, iB a question which would be better decided by ahen convention. We wish they would gold it soon, and give an intelligent explanagon of this and other egys which have been lad on editor's tables within the last six weeks. CONGRESSIONAL. SLAVES IMPRESSED. Mr. Phelan offered the following, which was agreed to: “Resolved, That the Military Committee be instructed to inquire into the expediency of paying for slaves impressed by the Govern- ment, and who have died or who shall here- gu after die whilst in the service of the Confed- erate States, from canses legitimately attribu- table to such impressmeot. PUMISHMENT OF DELINQCENT QUARTERMASTERS AND COMMISSA RIES.

We happened accidentally to see at the store of Messrs. Geo. W. Williains & Co. the list of sales uf the two parcels of ‘‘ Subscrip- tion Corn,” the second lot of which was re- ceived a few days ago. It will be recollected that some 25 or 30 citizens of this town re- cenly subscribed $16,000 to purchase Corn in the Eastern part of the State to be sold here at cost and charges. The difficulty in procuring transportation has prevented the acconplishment of the object of the subseri- army gcouts report that several Yankee regi- ments had laid down their arms and were | sent back Another rumor says it was two | regiments. | Geo. Rust’s command bad dnven beck a greatly superior force of the enemy.

[ooo or Later from Earepe and the United States. Ricasoxp, March 19.—Northern dates up to and iceluding the 16th instant, has been received. The War news is not of much importance. The London correspondent says the politi- cians and Editors have settled down into the conviction that Seward must speedily be «is- missed in compli with a peremptory de- mand of the French Government, in conse- quence of Mr. Mercier's currespondence. Intervention in sume way, and at every seems to be determined on as a mea- sure of French policy and an open rupture cannot now be prevented without that sacri- fice of national honor and dignity which is at- tempted, by the British Press, to be upheld. Cuarraxooea, March 2U.—Intelligence by is evening's train state that vur scouts from four miles this side of Murfreesboro’ report the enemy retreating from that viuinity. March 21.—The falling back of the enemy from Murfreesboro is fully confirmed. It is supposed they have gone towards Nashville. An Abolition Captain, of the Purt Royal (3. C.) Department has proved true envugh ww his creed to take command of some of the negro soldiers, With “ four companies” of them he lately made “an expedition against the enemy.” On his return, be published the most. magvellous acvount of their beroisin. Their eagerness to charge batteries and the like, was almost frantic. They far surpassed, in dash and coulness, any soldiers he had ever read of, save the French Zouaves. The cor- respondent of a Hardford paper dispels, how- ever, the glowing fiction in the following : “The expedition succeeded in bringing off four nea-combattants. The town of St. Mary's was burned by the negroes. The negrues landed and encamped at St. Mary's. During the night twenty federates, on borseback, made a dash into their camp, when the ne- groes fired in every direction, and then stam- peded for the 8, throwing away their guns. They rushed pell-mell on board, and created the greatest confusion.” aad | Cold Blood Marder, Mr. Benjamin Washburn, an old and re- spectable citizen of Rutherford connty, was brutally murdered in cold blood by the hand of one George Suttles, near Rutherfordton, on the 5th inst. The wound was inflicted by a pistol, and produced death instantly. It 13 to be hoped the perpetrator of this horrid deed has no sons who will imitate the exainple of (heir unfortunate father. We learn the act was unprovoked. Mr, Washbtrn was about 50 years of age, and had filled important po- sitions in his county, and was at the time of his death Chairman of the County Court.— He leaves a respectable family to mourn his untimely and tragic death. Battles has been ted and confined in Rutherford county j@% where he awaits his trial, and will no doubt meet his just deserts Mountain Kagle. C= FOR SALE—Six weeks old, stock.

Distinguished Hotel Arrivals.—On tle re- j ception at the Libby prison on Wednesday evening, of the-prisouers sent from Gorvous- ville, it was found that the list accompa: ying | them did vot taliy with either their nunber | orrank. In fact, Brigadier General Stragh- ton, Baron Wardena, Captain Barker, snd a servant, were non est, and answered pot to the call of the roll. The commandant of the prison, suspecting that Lieutenant McClellan | of General Fitzhugh Lee's cavalry, whocame | down in charge of the prisoners, had given } the distnguished prisoners a choice of the ) Richmond hotels for the night, dispatched ,; Captain Bossieux, with a file of men, to the | Ballard House, + where, sure enongh, they were found, in bed, the distinguished Soreign- ers occupying room No. 95, and Lieutenant McClellan No. 89, sleeping with one eye open. Captain Bossienx demanded tlat the prison- {ers at once change their quarters froin the Ballard House to the Hotel de Libby, but Lieutenant McClellan would noc deliver the prisoners exvept upon a regular order from General Winder. Captam Bossieux return- ed, and reporting to his superior, who is an acting Provost Marshal, that official repaired in person to the hotel, with a suffivent guard and compelled a “ chauge of base’ on the rt of the Brigadier and his triends from the lard to the Libby at the hour of midnight. — Rich. Examiner. on Wounded.— We regret to learn that Capt. N. C. Hughes, General Pettigrew’s Adjutant General, was wounded by the bursting of a shell at or near Barrington’s Ferry, on the ocvasion of the demonstration at that place a few days ago. His eyes we learn were in- jured but to what extent we have not been able to learn, we hope however, the injuries are nof serious. Capt. Hughes went into active service soon after the war broke ont and has been at his post constantly ever since, has seen mach lad service and been iu a number of battles. He never belonged to that class who sport their good clothes about towns and cities, but his been a faithful soldier.—Datly Progress.

Cole enlisted as 8 volunteer on the Ath day of March in the eighteen hundred and sixty-two, for three years or the war, and on the twenty-ei day of the same moath furnished a itute, who was ac received and mustered into ser- viee, athe substitute of said Cole, and he was diseb arged from all service called for by the terms of hig enlistment. The sub- stitute was over the age of thirty-five years at the time he was received into service, and died before there was any call for per- sons of hiv age, while actaally in the ser- vice. Upon this statement of facts, after argument heard by counsel for the Gov. ernment and Mr. Cole, the petitioner, Judge Featherston, ja an able and elaborate opiaioa, beld that he was not liable to en- coliment. The first position assumed was and wast observe and carry it into effect.

And we may add that be discussed every point in the case, with the most pro- found learning, and the most consummate ability.

But there is danger of overdo- ing the thing, and producing deep dissatisfaction by requiring more than the people ean afford to pay. It is true that some are able to pay enormously —those who are making enormously —but it is also true that a very large portion of the people, including those in the army, are less able to pay thanever. Yet ina yen eral tax law the property of soldiers at home must be taxed, though pos- sibly unproductive because of their absence. We say to Congress, therefore, Be- ware! You could net commit a more unfortunate blunder than to levy such a tax as it is reported is nearly matared, stated variously at a hun- dred millions, a hundred and fifty willions, two hundred millions, and even four hundred millions of dol- lars! Such’ taxea cannot be paid. The State and county taxes in North Carolina, tor instance, will this year he double what they ever were be- fore. Yet they may not reach three millions. North Carolina's propor- tion of the tax will be about one— tenth—say from ten to forty mijlions of dollars, according to the estimates of the whole.

N.O,: There is nothing new in army movements since our last. All seems to be quiet in eve- ry diregtion, except, perhaps, at Vicksburg, where the Federals are still endeavoring to discover some other way. of capturing that place than by a brave assault and hard fight- ing. They have been ditching and mance- vering there for a long time, yt so far at least, it don't seem to amount to mach. They have recently lost one gunboat with all on board, The enciny's fleet on the 8, C. shore has been increased the past week to 150 vessels. 1c is a most formidable force, and.if they really mean to attack (bat place, their preparations indicate a protracted. seige—a long and a hard fight. The States of South Carolina and Georgia, and the commanders of our forces | there, are also preparing for such a contest. There is nothing of importance from the Rap- pabannock. Fighting Joe Hooker is accused of not being overly anxious for a fight, and our boys there confidently predict that he will get a worse whipping than Burmsides when he does come. The muddy roads and bad weather have doubtless preveifted opera- tions there. Al! is quiet in North Carolina, also. Gen.

He says: “The principle on which the mas- ter of this plantation has proceeded, is, that the Oburch of Jesus is suited to all sorts and conditions of men}; and that if the Litargy of the Church is above the comprehension of his servants, then it is not the Church for himeelf or his children. Hence, the same services, tiie same Sacra- ments, the same sermons, Lave been ove and the same for all, whether white or black. The children have been baptized as soon as they were 8 days old. As soon as they could a:k for the bread that perisheth, they have been again gent to the minister, and, in the Cat- echism of the Church, in her holy Psalms, and Sermons, and Doctrines, have they been taught to find, to theie own soal’s comfort, that bread of life, of which, if a man eat, he shall live forever. And so soon as the colored child could say the Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, and the Ten Coin- mandments, and has been sufticient- Soca tec in other parts of the arch Catechism, set forth for that he has been brought to the i to be confirmed by hiw. Unhealthy religious excitements, 2 eer eee ee revivala, arid the like, have bee | avoided as religiously as the cholera and yellow fever; the former bein, considered as detrimental to the soul, as the latter are to the body. The only prayer meetings ever held there, have been the woruing and evening services of the Church, wi!h- out addition or substraction, and, at certain times, during the week, ser mons have been preached on the du- ties of the baptized. The servants have, in one word, been brought up as one t Christian family, with their minister as their spiritual lea- der, and their master as their help- er; one onited band, striving to serve TE jthen. They approach him as if he A a to. ea ¥ who aljote to-all their pl d por ‘tion in thiftaworld, bas: ; “Art themycaljed being a elavet doulos eclethes?)—Cure not for it. ate Jet every wan, wherein he is called, abide therein with Qod.” This they were trught as part of | their religion, They were not taught | to get religion, but to do it—ty live: jin it—to make it part aud parcet of | their daily life and actions, Asser | vants they were taught tu be obedi- ent to their masters, tu all things— not with eye-service, as men pleas- | ers, but as the servants of Christ, do ling the will of God frow the heart. | Now, we would not say that these, and such like fessons are omitted in ‘the teachings of the denominations. | By no means. We believe them to | be as faithful as we are, in theirown way ; bat the difference is this: The , denominations treat the negro, as in- jdeed they do all persons who have ‘not yove throagit acertain inental | process called cunversion, as a bea- \ bad never heard ot Christ, and were in no sense or degree, under the in- | fluence of His religion, and tell him he must be converted. To this end, means and appliances ure reserted to—music, especially, which hus pe- rculiar power over the race—to ex- cite his feelings, and to work him up to a state of enthusiasm, In this state, liv luses sight of everything that is real, tangible and practical. He becomes excited and happy, just as he would at a dance, or inerry- linaking of any kind, where muaie jand singing prevailed, and be takes that brief state of pleasant feelings for CONVERSION, taking it for grated that he las yotreligion. Alter this, ithe duties of the gospel may be urg ied Upeu Linn with the yreatest ful }ness and power—bat he winks all | ithis is only something by the way. ! This may all be very well, but the inain part of the basiness has long since been accomplished; he has been converted—he got religion at such a time and place, and it was a pleasant proeess. He would yladly go throagh it once a vear, if uot once a week, and hence jooks out, with anxious expectancy, forevery oppor: tunity of a revival.

In what then, shall we find it# We sba!l find it in this— in the influence, we candidly believe,of Church teach- ing, which, where properly under- stood and carried out, is sitnply the teaching of the word of God. These people had been born and rear-d under the influence of that teaching —their very cradles liad been the couches of it. They were not taught that they must be converted.

Ole vic soldiers pow consti- tute the best ariny iv the world; arms and Munitions are abundant; ime aud experi- euce las given ps admuable leaders, aud ev- | ery thing 1s prosperous and hopeful, except in te Heid and work shop. Everything de- pends now upou the industry and patriotism Now that so many brawny youe into the ranks, unless those still at home strain every verve to produce bread, our cause may be ruined. Without bread, the soldier has neither strength nor courage; without bread the cries of bis litte ones cr" home will reach his ears io the distant: camps, and cast a sickening chill upon his heart. No bravery, no skul, nor device, nor human wisdom, can cope with that dreaded enemy —famine.—- While our brave defenders are facing death upon the field, wy at home must sustain and feed them, or in vain will their blood be spilled. Our dutes though less glorious and pretend- ing, are equally as important and well defined ) Though not battling with the living and em- bodied enemies of our country, we are yet In her service, and strngghiug with a far more dangerous and insidious destroyer. And as the soldier who sbirks the conflict and deserts Ins cotnrades in the hour of bate, 1s a cow- ard or a traitur, sv equally is le who with- holds his bands from the plow, or guides it to the production of those crops which pro- duce money and not bread. thoagh be may not so mend it The humblest mother in all the land, who amid the harrowing cares of « helpless family, can find ime to plant a few potatoes near her cabin door, the poorest hr- Ue boy, whose infant and unskilled hands may plant a tew hills of corn. or yattter the sheaves ot harvest will each doa more acceptable service in the sight of God and his eouutry- men, and4s worthy of more Ronor than he who raises a thousand bales of cotton or a hundred hogsheads of tobaccn, aud ostenta- tously donates a small portion tu some “Aid Souiety.” The bright sunshine again warms and dries the earth, We mist use it to our salvation ut negleet to our destructivn.

Narrow local reputations would have less chance—in trigue and corruption fewer facilities—the really eminent and educated gentleman of all parties would be sohcited to serve their respective States; and we should never have a discussion on broad principles of poney and the destinies of nations lowered and degraded by the narrow calculations of “P. P. clerk of this parish.” These views, if they be correct, apply of course to all States, whether partly occupied by the enemy or not; and apply also toa state of peace as well as tu a state of war.

The greater oumber of the and human progress, liey not only deserve a King but a master. slaves who are so ready uy bow the knee to royalty will tind that this people are not so depraved as to be ready for their scheme yet. The Richmond Enquirer, with its foreign notions, for the reason, as it asserts, that fone of the people of Tennessee and orth Caroliua are disloyal, favors achange in the manner of electing members to Congress by which each representative will have the whole State for b& constitu ency. The charge as to disloyalty as ap- plied to this State is false in every partic- ular, aod the writer in the Anguirer knew it to Be “false when be uttered it. Why did he not example Virginia. a part of whose citizens have established a new State and been received into the family of Abraham? No the writer is a tmse, hireling sycophant, and intentionally libel- led the people of North Corolina. But enough of this for that paper is lost to shame, decency and truth, and would be beneath contempt but for the fact that it is the organ of the Government in so far as publishing the adyertisements and or- ders of the Department are concerned. We copy the following article from the Enquirer simply to show the gradual steps that the advocates of a despotism are tak- ing to enslave the people and place the i joyed at the ballot bux. | Here is the article: referred to, and we | ico not see how any true Tennesseean or | | North Caroliuian can real iL without a | that could pen such a libel on « people who | are making such sacrifices fur the cause uf ‘the South : , \ ELECTIONS FOR CONGRESS. A bill has been referred to the Judiciary | voters, and the best of ,them, are now in the Wee these iaeiad field, far away from their counties, and in ringing’ | imany cases from tieir States, There is no reason why their absence in such a cause should deprive them of their franchise; on the contrary, they have, in that very circum- stance an additional title to be heard by their votes in the election of the Congress which is to decide the doctrines of the country in the Legislature, while they work out our de- liverance in the field. Indeed, the people they have left at home, are in some regions (parts of North Carolina and Tennessee, for example) so timid and so dubious in‘ their loyalty, that if they are to have the whole choice in their hands, the result would be in disastrous. We say that the soldiers! North Carolina and Tennessee are the | hest.enen and the best Confederates of North: Carolina and Tennessee ; and we want their votes ta give us a sound delegation from these States. It will never do, while they are do- ing desperate battle for our independence en- tire and simple, that their weaker brethren should send us feeole or false representatives to Congress. The whole question begins to be discussed in Congress and in the Press; it has been ap- proached in a patriotic spirit, and we trust will be continued with the single-minded aim and desire to ensure both the dignity and the safety of our glorious young Confederacy by comnnitting its destinies to the best and wisest men. .

The French, if success ful, could never in the very. nature of, things, have inflicted such terrible paine:, and penalties upon the Russians,.as:the Abolitionists not only may, but own’ they will visit upon us; and we are a land in comparison with whi aia is a desert. To drive the invader from our soil, our army must be ,supplied » a things necessary to their plrysieal ing. Among these, food is the very firsts. Itis the duty of every man to plant ‘and raise, and sell at the lowest: pégpible - es every thing that can be produced thé army, and, if the Government cannot’ buy, to give all above the amount. reqpi- site for his own subsistence.

Let us all be stirred by every consideration of policy and mor- ality to consider not what we cah gain, but what we can give, and our enemies will be 95 an by our heroic and stupea- dous self-denial.— WV.

This is sv frequent av vccurrenee that it -would seein as if Lincoln aglented bis Gen erals because they were scoundrels. Sickles, Stephens «ud Milruy, are notable examples.

Hurl- | burt, a native of Charleston, who appears | to have had friends among the must emi- | nent gentlemen in Charleston, such as \ Jas. L. Petigra, Dr. S. H.

He wasalsua defamiter as an as- | eignee under the Bankrapt Act, and as Treasurer of the New England Society.— | These facts are stated on the Courier’s own | knowledge and responsibility.

A Conflict of Authority. The State of Delaware appears to be restive under the tyrannical rule of Lincola. Its Legisla | ture has passed am act to prevent egal | ‘erresis in that State, intended, of course, to nullify the tate act of Congress giving | ‘Lincoln powet to aucpend the writ of fa- \ eas corpus and to arrest and imprison any citizen nt his pleasure. In this state of ihe case the ‘Governor of Delaware comes to the aid of Lincoln. He has msued a) Proclamation enjoining the people to hold j twee allegiance to the United Stas. and | which he says is above their allegiance tu the State, and tht they should obey the ‘constituted authorities thereof before the Legislature of the State or avy other bu- man authority whatever. He further says: “[ wili save harmless from the operations of this statute all officers and soldiers of the army, and also from il other acts that t may be enacted or that shall be attempted | to be enacted.” This is a submission to tyranny which may be unacceptable to half the people of} Delaware, and mav lead to serious conse: | vences. The abolition Governor was | elected by asacall majority, fess than al aupdred we believe, and the pro-stavery | Legistature was also elected by a like small majority, showing that the State is about equa!ly divided. The conflict of authority | aj will be apt to raise a storm ia that little | * State. | io 2 | A SURPRISE. | { Or.

A i was therefore giver to the said old Cohn: . . substitute so-genepted was not subject to the call er: calls might be made un- der the Act of the Apnil, 1862. But if. riertating” Si the military service of the Con- federate tes, he wi be subject to the call or calls to be made under the Act of 27th tember, 1862. It i: claimed by the en- ing officers under Genera! Orders No. 64, dated 8th Sept. 1862, that in consequence of the substitute being within the class of per- sons, upon whom the call or calls under the Act of the 27th September, 1862, is to be made, he no longer answers the requirements of a valid substitute; that the discharge here- tofore given to Leopold Cohn isinvalied; and that he is now subject to military service un- dec the Act of 16th April, 1862. Congress has that large power, conveyed in the grant to it, to raise armies agd provide rules for the government of the land and na- val forces by which it can deal with the ques- tion at issue, 1 such manner as it shall deem best for the public welfare. Whatever may oe the effect of the order of the Secretary of War, cancelling the discharge of Leopold Cobn, there is no doubt of the power of bo - gress to do sb. . Had Congress passed a spe- cial Act concerning substitutes, it was com- petent for that body to repeal it, or to annul or qualify the discharges which had been ob- tained under it. The permission by Congress in such eases, given to individuals to substi- tute others for the performance of the milita ry service required of them} cannot be con- sidered as a@ contract between the Govern ment and those who profit by the permission. It is a mere indulgence extended by the Gov- ernment, which it may at any time, modify or extinguish. And the like power 1s, in my opinion, vested in the President of the Con- federate States. As Comman@er-in-Chief of the Army, unless restrained by the action of Congress, he may, upon consideration ot public necessity, call upon those to perform military service who have been declared lis- ble to this duty, but have been excused from or indulged in its exercise. But that which distinguishes this case, :s that Congress has delegated to an officer of | proviso, section second. chapter 64th Revieed | the Government, the Secretary of War, the tields and to inflict eruxhing cefeats ov suc- aessive armies, each of which an arrogant toe fondly imagined to be invincible.

Retrospect- ive legislation, having retro-active operation, | 1s w recognized, but avery high power of Government. When exercised, it ts always upon the ground of some manifest public pol- wy. Thar Congress intended to admit, in certain cases, the privilege of substitution, is clear. Tuat it coald e@ away that prvi-, lege by retrospective legislation, is equally ciear.

But that without | the insertion or expression uf any such condi- ton, Congress intended to conter the same mzh power of legislation, which it pussessed, so that the Secretary of War could avoid a discharge, which he had granted upon his ac- ceptance of a substitute, cannot be mnaintained.

The question is, does the subsequent action of Congress, to wit, the act of Oct. 1862 by its construction and legal’ effect, repudiate and take void the con tract and di : Tue construction of acts of Congress, so far as the rights of the citizens, as distin, guished from military tions, are con- cerned; is a matter of — urts Whether Congress wer to pass an act expressly making liable. to conseoription persons who have heretofore furnished sub- stitutes and received an abolute discharge, is a question not fiow presented, and one which I trust public n y never will - canse to be présented, as it would violate. natural justice and shock the moral sense. In my opinion the act of Oct. 62, by its proper constryction, does not embrace men who were before bound as substitutes, to serve during the war. It is true, the act ip general words gives the President power to . cail into military service all white men resi- dents, &c., between the ages of 35 and 45, but this manWestly does not mclude men who bare already itf.military service for the war, for this plain’ reason, there was no occasion , to include them, they were bound befdre, aud the true meaning and intent ot the. act is to Increase the arnry by calling into service men who were not betore tiable. Suppose the act contained a provision giving a bounty ot $500 to all men called into service under ats operation, or providing that conscripts should not be ordered out of theirrespective States, would it be imagitied that men who had previously volunteered for the war, or were substitutes for the war, would be ‘ea- titled to the extra bougty, or to the Special” privilege of remaining In theix own ; Certainly not; because t&ere was no need for legislation in order to make soldiers of them. . A dgcent respect for our law makers— forbids the Court from adopting a construc tion which leads to the conclusion that it was the intention, by the use of general words, to include within the operation of the act substitutes who were already ound for the purpose of effecting them, but for the indirect purpose of reaching parties who had furnished substitutes, and in that way asserting .a powey fwhich is at feast dodbtfal and certaioly in volves repudiation and a want of good faith. As the conseriptian act does not include sub stitues, the conclasion that Gedhart is to longer sufficient. as a substitue and that Irvin's —— of no further effect, fail It is by me, that John N. Irvin be forthwith discharged with liberty go t wheresoever he will.

Those who remain at home can do cnuch to aid the Government by contributing for the relief of the sick and wounded,+-by endeavoring to restore them to health, so that they can be able, in as short a time as possible, to return to the army.

Tley are growing so irritated and disgusted with the war, that they are ready for anythiag that will put an end to it. The efforts of the emancipationists have not changed the feelings of the upper class- es at all. If abolition was ever a favorite | idea of the aristoeracy, it is so no longer. It is consigned to the oblivion of the lower millions. The Times openly defends slave- jry. The other bigher class pzpers apolo- ‘ gize for it. ‘Phe Times.is not far from right when it asserts that the whole pub- income-tax-paying public—-all but a few | disappointed Republicans, hope for the success of the South.

He bad | just come from America, where he bad | traveled in both sections,and he was out and ‘out Southern, and declared that vo union | could be restored, mor could the South be 'eonquered.

Is it strange that | strung efforts should be made to hasten a» | result in which faith is so yeaeral # If the statements publicly made, and | apparently based on good authority, are to be believed, the Confederates, within a ‘month, will have. at sca one of the most | formidable fleets that ever steamed out! | upon the Atlantic.

A Suggestion.—The Confederate Con- gress has wisely laid a tax of eight per cent. upou ali provisious {as well as many ‘other xpecitied things,) on hand on the 1st day of July next, beyuud what is necessary for the family consumption of the holder. This will touch the pockets of these who ane kavwiedge of such a tax alzeadg. brought supplies morefrvely into market, and there- by reduced prices? Whether such an ef- fect has been produced or not, there is ev- Fery probability that the tax will operate in that way between this and the Ist of July. Aud what we would suggest to those who have a surplus of provisions, &c., dc., is lthat as the Ist of July approaches, the market will te more aod more crowded and prices will probably more and more fall. It is only necessary to call attention to this view of the matter. Each holder | will of course consult his own judgment as {to the propriety of selling soon or late, | paying the tax himseif or letting somebody | else pay it, dc., &c.— Fay.

The Bishop seemed most dis- i authority given him by the Legislature, has bought and has now on band 300,000 pounds of bacon, 2000 casks of rice and ; about 80,000 bushels of corn. This is to | be distributed among the different counties | for the benefit of the poor. [learn that but two counties bave so far applied fay | baeou.” Committees and county commissaries who are buying for the relief of the poor ean be supplied, to some extent, from this stock of provisions owned by the State, though we learn that the authorities re- | fuse to sell to the Mecklenburg Relief Committee on the ground that provisions are abundant in this section. Confederate Stocks.— We lvarn that | $526,450 have Leen funded in Confeder- | ate Konds. in this piace, durioty the past 12 days. Up tu the 22d inst. there was a pertect msi: for eight per cent Confeder- ; ate Bonds. and Mr Williamson, the [e- | ' positary, liad just about as much work as lhe could above sum, about $50,000 was sent from 4 manage. In addition to the this section to Raleigh and elsewhere, be- tore Depository was appointed at this place, At Raleigh about $1,500,000 funded; at Fayetteville $500,000; at} Greensboro $800,000. At other points | in this and adjoining States we hear of | immense amounts having been funded.— | At Columbia, 8. C., six millions of do! its | were funded; at Petersburg, Va., three millions. Hereafter only 7 per cent Bonds can be obtained from the Depositories. The withdrowal of such a.large amount ef money from circulation must bave the effect of reducing prices throughout the country, and we bope it will have a ten- were | { | has been that money was too plerti 4 dency ta stop speculation. The seat u concerted at the event, and at once declar- ed that he disapproved of the manoer in which the members indicated their appro- | val.” When the two dissentients attempted to give their reasons, in obedience to loud and threatening calls, they were ‘“ hissed” by their brother clergymen, with cries of “false,” “ sit down,” Kc. These “ clergy” probably supposed them- selves in a theatre, or political meeting, instead of a church. It is to such people, so forgetful of the common decenci-s of life as the spirit of religion, that this war is attributable.— Fay. Observer. Fund your Confederate Treasury Notes, — We call attention to the advértisement of Mr. Broadfoot, C. S. Depository, in re- gard to the funding of tke outstanding non-interest bearing Confederate Notes. One of the objécts we had ir view in the paragraph on this subject in our last, was to remind our readers of the propriety ot thus disposing of the notes bearing date previous to December last. There is abun- dant time to do this, amd yet it is quite likely that some negligent persons will find | their pockets full of such notes after the Ast of August. It will not be for want of notice if any of our readers are thus care less. — Fay. Observer. Rrenmorn, April 24.—R.. EB.

The great battle of the war has been fooght "on the banks of the Rappahannock ; and a victory, we are assured by the Commanding General gained, worthy of any army or na- tion. We have seen gentlemen from the scene of action, who deseribe it as certainly the most terrific fight ever witnessed, and the | destruction of life as awful indeed. We know | not how to express our grautude for thé ut- | ter route of the enemy, aud in what langpage to convey onr admiration and regard to the ' brave army for the dauntiess manner in which | they faced the vandal foe whe had been lay- ing waste ‘gar lovely country, and borled them back with such tremendous slaughter. But while we ue proud of the prowess ex- | hibited on this occasion, we have to lament | the loss of many brave spirits, both in wound- jed and killed. They have nobly given ap \ their hves in defence of their native land, and | again proven to the enemy that independence | and entire separation is the only alternative | they need expect. Our respected tuwnsman, Capt. Wa. C. | Lorn, we regret to learn, is mortaly wounded. | When the news reached here, a universal ex- pression of regret was heard at every tom. and & hearty with, that (althongh fearful of his recovery.) he may be spared to his native town and country, for many long yeats to come. We regret fo hear that Cant. Lutnxr Da- vis of thiytown was also severely wounded. 1‘Lt.

Ifthe prayers of a whole nation will avail anything with Him whohas all power in Heaven and earth, | we are snre Gen. Jackson has the benefi¢ of | them in his behalf. Col. Avery, theugh sof- | fering considerable, we are glad to see is able to walk, and we trost that by care he will soon be restored to his regiment in godd health and strength.

PARTICULARS OF VALLANDIG- HAM’S ARREST. The Cincinnati Commercial furnishes the following partieylars of Vallandigham’s arrest: A special train left this city at 12 o'clock Monday night, with a company of the 13th U. S. intuntay, 67 men, with directions fron: General Burnside, commanding the Department of Ohio, to arrest C. L. Val+ landigbam at his residence in Dayton.— The train reached Dayton at 24 o'clock, and, proceeding to Vallandigham’s house, placed guards on the streets in the vicini- ty, and the captain, with a squad of men, surrounded the house. The door-bell was rung, and Vallandig- ham appeared. at.the window and inquired what was wanting. The Captain told him, but he was not disposed to go along peace- ably. He shouted for the police loudly, and the female members of the famil joined their cries to Lis. The Captain told him be might as well stop the disturbance as he bad the force to arrest him and would certatply do so. , VallandigWam tken said be was not FROM THE DAILY PROGRESS.

The official charges against Vallandig- ham set forth that on or about the 1st of May, at Mt. Vernon, Ohio, be .public!y ad- dressed a large meeting of citizens, declar- ing that the present war is an injurious, cruel and unnecessary war—a war not be- ing waged for the preservation of the Un- ion, but for the purpose of crushing out liberty and establishing a despotism—a war tor the freedom of the blacks and en- slaving of the whites, and that if the ad- ministration had so wished the war could have been honorably terminated ; that peace might bave been honorably obtain- | ed by listening to the proposed mediation of France ; that propositions by which the Southern States could be won back, and be guaranteed their rights under the Con- ; suluuion, Were rejected the day before the battle’ of Fredericksburg.

A VIRGINIAN, Coxreperate Mongy.—-We learn that Some persons are pretending that afier the Ist of August next Confederate Treasury notes will be worthless. This is of course either a mistake or a pretence, They will be just as good after August as now——ard perhaps better—with this exception, that after that date one kind of those notes viz: those dated Sept. 1, 1861, will not be fundable, that is, a holder of such notes will have no right, as he now has, to in- vest them in Confederate bonds, The ef- fect of this will be, not to make the notes Worthless, bat that they will not circulate, {as people will prefer to take notes issued i worthless,) merly.

We rejoice i belm, in North Carolina, io thes military tyranny and petty usurpations, that realize the perils of the hour.and dares 4o set bis face against every encroachment upon the liberty of the citizen, and to re- sent every insult, from whatever source, to the majesty of the State. The people of North Carolina, always exeepting those few treasonable plotters tbat helped the Abglitionists bring on the war, bave done their whole duty in the dreadful ordeal through which we are passing, and will contioue to stand by the goverument and the cause of the South io the bitter end, but they will at the same time maintaia their own Self.respect and defend the rights of the citizen from arbitrary arrests and anauthorized imprisonment. We bave contributed our full quota of men and of blood, ‘as the recent terrible carnage on the Rappahannock, where one-half the entire namber of killed and wounded were North Carolinians, will show ; and every proper effort las been made on the part of our State authorities to collect conscripts and arrest deserjers. We have not only done this, but we have cheerfully submitted to impressments and serzures, while we have seen our own Soil overrun and our citizens robbed by the inveder; we have kept faith with the government and contributed in every way possible to give success to its arms, and still we have been ridiculed and sneered at, and the authority of the State defied. We bave deprecated anything like even a seemity conflict between State and Con federate nuthonty and hoped that there would be none, but still we are not ready to see State lines obliterated and State au- thority wholly ignored, and we are glad that Gov. Vance, has taken a stand that will show Confederate rulers that North Carolina will not surrender the right to tect ber own cilizens on ber own soil. he executive of no, State has yicided a more cordial, willing and ready assent to all reasonable demands than has Governor Vance, and bis recent proclamation, warn- | ing deserters of the consequences of per- | aistence in their disgraceful behavioor and | his energetic eff ris to enforce obedience | and disci; live, is sufficient guarantee, were such neeted, of the sincerity of bis devo- ton to the cause of the South and solici- | tade for the fair fame of the State. He | risked al! th: dangers and endured a!i the hardships of ihe ficld, until called to his present exalted poritiua, and he has no sympathy for or wih those who sbriok | from the performauce o! their duty. | Bat Gov. Vanee is equal to emergen- | exes ia bil: civil position as well as on the | field, and while he urges the soldier to tbe performance of his duty be will not over- | look the nghts of the citizen. It having | been authoritatively annoatced that Cun- federate authority does not ackoowledge the decision of our Judges, where citizens have been discharged from arrest on a writ of habeas corpas, Gov. Vance has caused | the Adjutant General to issue an order de fining the duties of Militia officers. This } order says: ‘t Militia officers are ordered bot to arrest any man as a evnscript or! deserter, who may have been discharged woder a writ of habeas corpus, tried befure any Judze of the Supreme or Superior | Courts of this State” And ‘ot to be mis wadersion! and settle the question fully apd fins iv, the order continues: “* They (miittia uticer-) are furtuer ordered to re sist any such arrest upon the part of any person. net authorized by the keyal order oF process of a Court or Jugde baving ju- fisdiction of such case.” Gov. Vance las taken this bold staod to protect the authority and bonor of the Btate and every true patrot in the State will ctand by him.

We dehope the attitude of the Con- federate authorities to the State will be spee- dily altered, as we do not desireaty disagree- | ment upon any question whatever, and we do know that the Governor of North Caroli- na wants none. But if the course now be- ing inaugurated by the officers of the Confed- erate States, is the result of orders from the War Department, and persevered in, sach a catastrophe must happea. No man with a thimble full of brains dare charge the Gov- ernor or the people of the State, with disaf- fection. The efforts of the Governor to sus~ tain, and the bleod of our brave soldiers so freely spilt*upon every battle field, prove the autter falsity of even the thoaght. But it must be remenmbered that State lines and State tribunals have not yet been blotted out, and and that as we were accustomed before the wat to respect and abide by the deqsions of our Courts as law, so they must now be res- pected and obeyed by all ; atime when the duty is more imperative upon the people in this particalar, it is now, For whensthe rights and liberties of the people If ever there was have once been usurped, all history proves the difficulty of regaining them.

But it was not the union of these pleasing lineaments of character which alone distinguished him, for he sessed the attractions of a highly graceful ap | cultivated mind. Endowed by nature with excellent faculties, he became thoroughly grounded in the rudiments of know- ledge, under the tutilage of that eminent instructor, William Bingham, so that when he entered our Univer. , he easily reap- ed its first honors and eame forth inte the world before he had attained his majority, matured beyond his years. He had stvdied and read much, and his mind was well stored with spund and usefaflearning. His memory was uick and retentive, and hie judgment sound abd §teaty. © possessed fine reasoning powers, and a refined and cultivated taste in polite literature and the arts. He was a quiet and close observer, and, for iis age. an experienced judge of character. A man of excellent common sen~e, his opinions were always well-timed and just. The qualities of his mind, in short, like those of his heart, were beautifully attuned and harmonized, and there was such adaptation between these, that he may well be regarded as a model for our imitation, He had been admitted to the bar, and had just enter- ed the threshold of its active duties, with glimpses of a bright and promising career epening to bis view, when his country’s caf! tonk him from the peaceful parsaits he loved so well, and now there remains to us not but his honored dust, and the memory of his matchless vir- tues.

Many bitter tears have faller over his untimely grave, and though the recollection of his heroic death “*May for a moment soothe, it cannot slake The fever of yain longing, and the name So honor'd but assumes a stronger, bitterer claim.” Wilmirgton Journal, Fay.

Daily Progress. | The State Journal has published two arti- oles, very abusive of me, whieh I desire to ceply to, ig order that the public may have the truth presented to them, in place of the gratuitous statements made in the Journal upon the authority of its Editor or sme ve eise to me unknown ; then upon the opinion of of all nen, who have the truth before them, I am willing to stand or fall, (ia public estimation,) so far as my connection with the Confederate Military Prisou at Salisbary, is coucerned. The first application made to me as a Law- yer, oa behalf of a’ prisouer in the Prison at Salisbury, was made by Major Boone, of the Confederate States Artny, formerly of Char- lotte. Although I had known Mayor Boone formerly, I did not thea know that the letter eame from him, written as it was, in the Eas- terp part of the State. His application was atade for a Prisoner, by the name of Dibble. Major Boone stated that he beheved Dibble was a loyal man, arrested, as he believed, be- cause of the conduct of a brother of his, Not knowing that the letter came from an ac- quaintance of mine, I declined to act in the case, supposing that Dibble would apply to me in person if be wanted my services, not then knowing that prisoners were denied the right to consult a Lawyer. After | became .aware of the highly re- spectadle and reliable source from .. hich my ‘etter came, I concluded to look into the case. Accordingly, I ied to Major Gibbs, Com- mmandant of the Pnson, for ission tu see the prisoner, Dibble, as a , which re- quest was refused. Iu a short time thereaf- ter, | heard that Dibble was removed from Salisburv, and I have been informed and be- lieve, that ravine, reap ciel and a present, 1a high favor with the Government The oext nana which I was concerned, was that of Col EK, W. Jones, of Plymouth, ips thoagh Pd pons ged , Was ated the parole town, was <td Sy one of the Ho- tes Col Jones brought letters of introduc- tion to the from B. F. Muore, Esq. and from one or two others of my brother lawyers in Raleigh, requesting my services in his behalt in my absence, F. E Shober, Esq., sued out the writ and I attended to it before his Honor, Judge Kerr, at Coacord Supenor Court, in the Fall of 1862. Jones was dis- charged, and as soon as he reached his some. he wrote me a letter, asking me to stten-] to the case of Enoch Jones, of Ply- mouth, and of several othera The applica- woa for Enoch Jones was made at the re- quest of bis wife. I accordingly called upon Capt. Henry MeCoy, Commandant of the prison, and asked to see Kyoth Junes and one Davenport, a prisoner. The request was refused. I then drew op a petition tor a writ of Habeas Corpus tor Jones and Davenport, and as 1 could not see them to get them w swear to it, I swore to it myself. Judze Xert, who was then in Salisbary, holding the second week of oar Superior Court, granted the writs and made it returnable the same day before himself, when Davenport was at once discharged Capt MeCoy saying he did not oppose his discharge as there were no charges against him ; but in the case of Jones? | ne employed counsel, and made all the res.st- ance he could to his discharge, and asked a continuance of it, which Judge Kerr refused, saying he would hear all the evidence they had against him then. He was disvharzed ty Jadge Kerr, but veknown to me, he, Booch Jones, was re-arrested the same day by the military authorities, thrust baek into orison, and although in feeble health, he was { confined there again anti hus death, which happened some ume afterwards, withuut be- | ing allowed the privilege of seving or writing to counsel. Se soon as { beard of his re ar-) rest, I took measures to obtain a secon] writ | for bun, returnable before Judge Kerr, at Yanceyville, on the 16th of December last. bat before it could be served. the President had snsj--nded the operation of the writ of Habeas Corpas in Salisbury, and belore it was restured, Knoch Jones was in his grave, a vicurn. as I then said, and sullsay, to tmili- tary tyranny. My feelings were greatly ex- cited by the facts of this case. This re-ar- rest wasa direct insult to Judye Kerr, who Sal ios réleased him, it was an insult to me, as his counsel, to arrest him. without. my cnow!le tge—it was the most grievous wrooy tw Juaes for it cost bin Toe saune werk another case came up belore His Hon- or, Judge Biggs. of the Contederate Cart, who was then holding Court in It was the case of Dr. Isaac W. Jones, a re- epectable citizen of Salisbury, who had been arrested by the mihtary anthorities, withont process of law. apon suzpicion merely, ol be- ing guilty of forgery. When Dr Junes was first sutinte prison, he de-ired to see James F. Kerr and Lake Blackmer, Esqrs., as coan- sel Sut was refased. Jobn [. Shaver, bsq.. Mayor of Sahsoury, then interested hunself un D Jones behalf, employed as counsel fur tum Messrs Kerr and Blackrner, swore to the application for his writ, which was drawn up by Major Kerr. Judge Kerr granted the writ, the case was tied, aud be bound Dr. Jones over to appear befure the Confederate Qourt to answer the charge. Jokn I. Sha- ver beeoming his surety in a bond of $5,900 Dr. Jones etnpluyed me as assuctate connec! before the case was argued before Judge Biggs—the Government having counsel to resist jis diecharge—but Judge Biggs dis- Gharved him. Toe avusive artucles in the State Journal were bused upon my professional conpection with the case of J. W. Wynne. The facts of thes mse are as follows: Wheo kroch Jones and } cane from the prison to take the r Uvear t f last Decem- 7 ber, they brooerit out for me a letter [ron Jd Ww.

Waters, fer some reason bes! knqwa to himsel/, could not be veen, the time for the regura of the writ passed without its having been served. I then took out another writ returnable before Judge Kev, at Yancey ville, on the 16:h of December. This writ shared the same fate with the second writ for Enoch Jones, the President baving suspended the operation of the writ of Habeas Cycpus iv Salisbury. | thea intended to take out an- other wnt for Wynne as soon as the opera- tior. of the writ was restored. In the mean time, the Legislature of North Cai lina pass- ed a law reinstating the operation (of the writ in thirty days after the adjouroment of the Legislature. Betore the time arrived, in which I could procure another wrt of Habe- as Corpus, I received a letter from Gen. H. G. Spruill, of Plymouth, asking of use to in- terest myself in the case ef J. W.

The facts of this case bring it within the decision in “the matter of Irving.” That | decision is put on the ground that the Con- | scription Act of September, 1862, does not ; embrace substitutes, Aud so the questions | growing out of the regulations prescribed by | the Wace Department, “where a substitate | becomes subject to military service, the ex- | emption of the principal shall expire,” was | not presented. It seems w me that any one accustomed | to judicial investigation cannot read the act and fail to come to the cotclusion that it does pot embrace volunteers ayd gubstitates | who were already bound to serve for the war; a different construction 1s excluded by the words used, aid ts inconsistent and re- pugnant Ww ils pruvesions The President is authorized “to call on! and place in mililary service ull white men. &e” The words ‘call oul, aad “place in military service’ are not applicable to meu who are already in the nultary service for the war; no legistauon was necessary to make soldiers of them. If only a part ts called tor provistun ts made for taking “those who are Letweea the age of 35 and any oth- er age less than 45," can Wiis be appheable to volunteers and sulstiutes? Tt igturther pro- vided that ‘thuse called out uuder this act, and the act to which it is nn amendinent, shall be first and nnmediately ordered to fill to their mAximnuo number the companies, baitabons, &e., from the respective States, &c., the surplus, &c.” Tins supposes that the volunteers and subsutates composing the companies are to remain io the deld, and the companies and battalions are to be filled up by those who are ordered into service under the Consenpt Act Again, huw cau the regulation that all consonpts are to be seut to camps of instruc: twa be apphealle to voluntecrs and substi- tutes? Age they tu be Wken from the army and sent to caiunps of tustrucuon? Certainly not, because Lacy are ot called out aed placed in the military service under the Cou- scripuun Acts but are U: und tur the war by force of the ongiual contracts of enlistments.

The other expressed, to wit: The substitute tnust be 4 person who is ndt lieble to military duty under the existing law, the time, place | and manner of receiving substitutes in which ; is ingluded the mode of decidigg. whether he | isan able bodied white man not liable to | duty ; to be regulated by rules prescribed by the Secretary of War.

Ia the opinions of this people, money is the penance of all evils aud the eure of all grief. “A paiia purse is somerelly considered, as the high: est testimony of ‘popular approbation in the North s but’ the of sueh bauaties are generally as ¢ # the mob that designs them, This coarse festignony. of the popular favor may do very well fur actresses aud the favorites of the prize ring, while it would ‘ingult those whose refined estimation of publie bonor repels the tho’t of the peeuniary tribate of parasites. We have.oo reason to believe that the family of General Jackson is in any pecu- biary necessity or danger, to call for the remarkable scherce of relief proposed by the small editor in Georgia, His munifi- cence, and that of the small grocer who private soldiers.

Notoriety hunters and private adventur- ers have already seized upon the name of Gen. Jackson, and used it for the most base and indecorous ends. A subscription of popular pence has been started for his monument. The bogus military of Rich- mond and newspapers whose skirts are draygied in the “substitute” business and the Glib of back door transactions, are de- lighted with the opportunity of fame in advertising themselves as treasurers and collectors of the patriotic fund. The sub scription appears tu be an affair of a little inan dressed in uniform in Gov, Leteher’s closet, and the very euterprising and ac- | complished theatre manager of Richmond. It is painful to see bow the uame of this vureat bero has been dragged in the dust | by those who have fastened upon it, The * subscription” to the Jackson monument is tte convenient handle, after the most approved fashion of the Yankees, ofschemes of self laudation, puffs aud’ peace. It is made a text for showmen’s advertisements; paraded by tradesmen to sell their wares; grocers, | so to treat them, as that onission is a per- | ‘mission of their conduct. | The Federal Government and armies have | been and are now, ststematically violating the laws of war.

They occupied the angle formed by the creek aud the river, and were throwing up a line of entrenchments of aanile iv length, extencing from Bervard’s hewse up to. | Deep Run. By aid ef a field glasa their dirt digging operations could be distinctly seen fromn the hills above Hamitton’s Cross- | jug, but it was impossible to form any cor- rect estimate of their numbers. Beside | the ditches, only about twojregiments were | vsible, but there may have been several creek, and under the river.bank. On the Stafford hills, just opposite Deep Ran, might be seen about 4 thousand men, ap- parently cavalry. , There had been no skirmishing or can- nonading since Saturday. We sce no reason to change the opinion hitberte expressed, that. thie demonstration of the enemy was designed solely to dis- concert or retard some supposec plan of Gen. Lee, That it'has been a dead failure is already known to the Yankee Geneval. Where Hooker, with the main body of his forces now is, is a matter open to con- jectare. He may be at Kelley’s Ford, 30 miles above Fredericksburg, at Dumfries, on the Potomac, or even so far away as Manassas Junction. Wewould most strong~ ly incline to the belief that be was at one of the latter places, were he not the great “ Fighting Joe,” and in command of ‘ the finest ariny on the planet,” composed of the victorious veterans of Chancellorsville. But with sach a name and such an army he cannot turn his back upon a fog he has ‘always pretended to despise,—wherever he is, we have no fears but that we shall soon bear from him.

A strict attention to the datics of an Ecclesiastical Convention leaves one but lit- ule Ume to think of other. matters. The mind is kept ccotinually upon the strain, and seems lo require the few brief intervals of time between the duties of each session to-recover ils rccastomed tone. We are voable to furnish our readers with a de- tailed account of all that has transpited in the General Couvention of the Church Uae assembled ta this place on the 20th vost., aud will, therefure, ouly holice such vets as will prove of geaeral interest. We were perfectly delighted, upon our arrival, to find so muny delegates to the Convention present. The two Synodts of Virginia and fore of North. and South Carolina wud Georgin were all represented, A spicit of coufidgoce and yood will seem ed lo pervade the breasts of the breLlirer, and prepared theen for the discharge ot the respousible duties which had assembled them. At 10, a.m. Rev. De. DF. Bittle, who bad previously Geen appointed to preach the opeutny sermon of the Couveu on, commenced the religious exercises with sianag aud prayer, and then deliver- ed an adinirable dmcoarse from Matt. xxii: 21.) Atter these exercises the Convention was organized, and the President proceed ed toceiver brs address, which was re- ceived and referred lo a Committee of ove delegate from each Svnod. It was now and Guanimously agreed to re- egive the Convention into a General Synod. Kev. J. Bachinan, J). D, was elected Pres- deat, Rev. D. F. Baue, D. D., Secretary, and K G. Chisolin, Treasurer of the Gen eral Synod. Upoa taking the Chair, the President addressed the delegates in a wost solema and impressive manner, re- tioding Urem of their responsibilities and most earuesly exhorting thétm to lay aside all personal prejudices aod to be ready to make such coticessivos cunsiatent with principle as would tend to promote the: union of the whole Church We need hardly add that die wholesome advice of oue Rev. Father was listened to with the profuundest atlentun, aod has exerted a most salutary influence. Rev. Prof. J.D. Smelizer presented to the General Synod a paper entitled, * A Plea for the Separauon of the Synods South from the General Synod of the U. Sudes of America.” [01s au able docu ment, which does honur both to the bead and beart of ite author. It was voanimous- ly resulved to adopt the papye aa an ex- pressiva of the views of the General Synod, and to append it as a preface to its Con- stitution. The various Committees appointed by the Conveativn as tts first Meeting now proceeded to make their reports. Rev. J. B, Davis, Chin’a of the Com Mittee on General Synod'’s Constitation, Presented the result of the Committee's la- bors, whieh, after a few amegdments, was unanimonasly adopted. In two respects this Constitution differs materially from (bat of the Old General Synod. First, it makes the General Synod the highest judiciary of the Church, and 10 all cases of appeal, i:s dewsiuns are to be foal and banding apon the ehurches; and, secondly, It is the exponent of the dvctrives and usages of our Church, We append here the Article that d@tines our doctrinal basis, H ARTICLE 11, | | Sec. 1. We hold and receive that the Old and New Testaments are the Word of rod, and the only infallible rule of Faith aad Practice. | Sec. 2. We likewise hold that the’ Apostles Creed, the Nicene, and the Atha: | wasian Crveds, and the Augsburg Contes. | sion, contain all the fundamental doctrides of the Sacred Scriptures, and we receive and adopt them as the exponents of our Faith. Sec. 3.

So coutrary was this to the expectations of President arrested the business uf the Sv- | vod until he bad offered a prayer of thanks- yiving to Almighty God. } The Committee on Government and | Discipline thea reported, and after sundry | verbal amendments they were also approv- | ed. The report of the Committee on Hymn Bouk and Catechism bas been accepted by the Syuod, but final action bas been | delayed tu afford the members of Synod an opportunity of examinmy the works propused by thin Committee, The Senod bave at this time the work of the Com- mittee on Liturgy under review, and from present appearances it will lake a couple of days at least tu dispose of that matter. At this stage of our meeting it ts didis | cult to say when the Synod will adjourn y the present dispositivn of the brethren is: ty retuain uuu they beve success(ully ac complished all they have undertaken to perform. We are in the midst of a most hospitable people, apd such is the attepuon which the brethrea receive on all hands, tat were it nut for other duties, it would , be po difficult: matter to induce them to protract thet meeting for several @eeks. Mar 28, 1863. Our last was clused just as the report of the Litargical Committee was being sub- tuitied to the commderation of Syuod. It is judeed ap dvcasivn fur gratulauon that we are at last ty bave sumething like waot- formity in our Chareh services, Gur new Liturgy, in our humble judgment, will be found peculiarly adapted to the wants of our Church.—t ix netuher toa hong Hor tuo sheurt, and is 0 arranged Unat af weed be it can be abridged to suit) circumstances without impairing the general order of Service, su hat whether the whule is used or unly a part, our people will realize that they are in thefLutheraa Church, both iu own and country, while strangers who nay chance to worstip with us will not be likely to confound as with other de- nomiuatious, The eympilation of such a Liturgy has pot been a work of no little labor, and the Chute should feel itself under obfigations to the brethren who | bave so futlfully and sausfactorily accom plisied their task. Equally as faithful and energetic tas been cur Hyma Book Com- mittee. No pas bas been spared to furnts-b the Chureu with a collection of hytpus of which we may well be proud.— , All our chowe hymus have Leen retained, and maoy others added that were not to be foumd in auy of our old bymn books, This sane Committee was also entrusted , with the preparativg of Cateclism for gen- eral use, They have presented to the Synod an exact transiativn of Luther's Smaller | Catechism, which was unanimously adopt- ' ed as the Catechisin of the Chareb. The work of these several Committees will constitute our Book of Worship, aad will be to our Church what the Book of | Common Prayer te tw the Episcopatians. It will be in the hands of cur people, and Us frequent use will familiarize Uhem not | only with the usages of the Church, bat also with her docthiucs and all ber distine: | tive features, The Joint Stock Book Company, which orgimated in the S.C. Synod, was also | presented to the consideration of the Sv vod, but as its Orgadigabion was cot per: | fected, all action upon it was postponed | uatil our next meeting, The report of the Pablishing Committee of the Southern Lutheran was read, and | m accordance with the pledge that was | made at the Lime of its first appearance, | the paper was tendered to the Synod as | the organ of our Church. After several | complimentary resoldtions, the offer waa | accepted by the Synod, and the old Com: | mittee retained in the editorial department. Mr. Jas. H. Murrell was elected the Fi- pancial Ageut to fill the vacancy occasion: | ed by the resignation of Mr. R. G. Chieolm, We may now consider the Southern Lu- theran asthe common paper of the church, and rs such we trust will be liberally sop- ported by all of our Syuods, Its subscrip- tion price is much lesa than it ought to be lot the even the must salyuibe, that our venerable | that on Tuesday evening # was found ‘that | provement by the development ; all matters of chief importance had been | | sides, with « full account of the proceedings by the Secretary of the General Syfeody » ~ Bo steadily aod faithfully putts work Synod prosecuted" bythe ‘vfethten, disposed of, aad the Syuod meet again next year, on the preceding Trinity Sunday, at some poivt to be hereafter determined upow by ts ofti- cers.

We have passed indeed a most delighiful Vine, Greater hospitality we could not have met with in any other plape, apd it ‘was with evident reluctance thar the del- eyates touk leave of their new made friends.

A Change ta the War Polrey—A Call for More Troeps. : The President of the Confederate States has made a cali, throayl: the Seeretary of War, upon the Governors of the different Stats for troops fur local defence. We thuughs this thing necessary last wioter, and hence arged the passaye of what was known as the Ten Rigimeut Bill, but the cry of “ conflict” was raised aud the mea- sure was deleated. Had the bill been passed the troups cuald have been organ- ized and iy the tivid, long since, It seems that the goverument is begin- ning to realize the folly of scattering the Croups in tts service, fur the protection of any and every place supposed to pussess a” jittle neighborhood importance, and that, hereafter, the forces are to be massed for active operations agaist the enemy. In order, therefore, to enable the Goverament, to mainuin and increase the streugih of its main arnies, and to Concentrate Lroops al important puints witvout leaving the country entirely exposed to the marauding partics of the enemy, each State is called upon to organize a force from the militia, for its defence. Gov. Vance is called upon to raise - thousand, to be ready for duty by the Ist of August and to serve for six months, wad not to be carried oat of the State. This force will be raised from those persuns sub- ject to rmbiua duty, wha do not come with- iv the operations of the Consenpt Aeh— No one will eseape from this service save those named by the Legisinture as nut be- ing subject to miliba duty, Miliua and other State officets and those having sab- ‘stitutes will now bave achatce to defend their own bomes and protect their own roperty, and to serve the country without leaving their own State, and i ds ex- pected that such will not only cheerfully | submit ty the call made upou ther patie | otism bot tkat they will giadly enibrace | j a ' be disappointed. tbe opportunity to defend their owa fire- Persons beretofure exempt from the service on account of the owtiership of iwenty negroes will not be regeived into . . } this service, as the exemption bi)! of the’ last Congress claims them as conscripts , ; but such of them as have Or may furnish | | substitutes will be subject ton draft, should one be found necessary to talye the force now. called for. quired, raised, organized and ready for du ty by the Ist of August. Gov. Vance will issue bis proclamation in a few days, we suppose, when the whole matter will be expianed and {he manoer of raising the troops fully set forth. Mean- | time we may be pardoned for asking for the Executive the cordial and hearty co operation of all patriotic citizens, in. this as ip all things else looking to the safety of ove homes and property. Noman ever labored more zealously, sincerely of antir ingly for the welfare of his constituents | than Gov. Vance has done and is doing for the people of North Cacoliaa-—Daily Progresa ; { i dess the Yankees liad assured themselves | referred to in these columns, will be sus luis expected that Gov. | Vance will tirst appeal to the patriotism of | the militia to raise this force by volunteer: ling; aad should that faila draft will be! ordered in time to bave the number re- | | markable evidence of the aggravation of | ; the enemy's devilish cruelty | ‘the penalty of death to “writers of letters { « _who “feed, clothe, or 1a any manner aid -emsed aa with savage and cowardly hate ; It was hardly to be ‘expected tbat in these hard and delorous times as many visitors would attend the Conimeneement , at Chapel Hill as ate usually collected ’ there.

A Mail Robber Detected and Arrested.— On hast Sunday afternoon, Hartison James, a young man, who is a shoemaker by trade, and lives in Salem, was most adroitly trapped-and his depredationg revealed, by Mr. O. A. Keehln, the atientive and cfficient Postmaster of Sa- lem. The facts as we heard them are in sub- stance as follows: Mr. Keehln, for a month or * two past hus bad his suspicions excited by the actions of James on Sunday afternéons, imme- diately alter the arrival of the Eastern mail. The nail is distributed in a back room of the building, andthe matter for the Salem office brought out, assorted and delivered to the peo- Lplein the front room On several occasions while Mr. Keehin and his clerks were basy in the front roow, James was noticed to go intu the back room, apparently fora drink of water. | Suspééting that bis object was more than for water, Mr. Keehin coucituded to watch him and if detected ia purtoining mai! matter, (he proof of his guilt should if possible, be such as to admit of no doubt, aad be produced and established up- on him before he left the house. Accordingly on fast Suaday the plan was carried vut and re- waited in detecting him of entering the back rooni, poeketing several puckages of mail mat- ter, and then repairing to the froat room, ;.where he was confronted*by Mr. Keehln and charged with tbe theft. At first he denied the charge, then confessed to taking one package. but a search of his pervon brought forth several more. He was arrested and confmiced to jail A search of his lodgings brought to light some 30 or 40 letters that he had taken previousty a few of them contained small sums of money. bat his ill-gonen geinsin this manner wovlo not, from the best judgment could be made. exceed the cum of $25. The offence in the 1 eyes of the law is none the lesson this aecoant Mr. Keehin's reputation for efficieacy ana prudence in the discharge of his duties is exten sive and well kaewn and the high cetimation ty which he is held as a public officer. by the peo ple and government, will be imereased for th. promptness with which he planned and success fully prosecated the above transsction.

The Boilers.—Ti. should be propor tioned in size and namber to the size of the crop; say one for twenty acres, (wo or three for fifty acres, and five or six for one hundred acres, more or less. As many as five or six can be put in oae battery, and operated ly one furnace, running under all, The capacity ef the beilers can be greatly increased Ly fasteaing a wooden rm eight or ten inches high around their tops. The brick work of the furnace should not reach higher vn the toside than mid- way of the builers, otherwise the syrup | will be burnt by the fire. The cane should not be cut until ripe, | which tay be kovwn by the seed becom: | vag of a purplish black, aud the stalks | streaked with read on a yellowish ground. Ivis well to koow aod recollect that the | canes, if left standing on the laud where | they grow, with all their leaves or foddei on them, will keep yood until the erop is manufactured, tf you will barely cut off ail the ripe seed. i canes will drv up, it being the mouth aud lugs of the plants. The Gathering of the Canes..—Pull the | fodder as you do curn fodder, each day as — you griod vour cane, Cutthe stalks cluse to the ground with sharp hoes, aod hau! them to the mill with the seed on, with a small crop, but cut the seed off in the field | if a large one, dry the panicles in the sun one day and house. The seed will equal or exceed corn on the same Jand, and cun- taining by chemical analysis 66 per cent ef starch, is about two thirds the value of corn or rye fur feeding stock, or “horres- seo referens,” for making whiskey, and will command one dollar per bushel io the | market. The juice as pressed out by the mill should rua throagh cloths fastened over | the receiving tubs to clear it of all trash. To Clarify the Juice.—Dut the juice in the largest boiler, nearly filling it, “aod start a gentle fire under 11, aud put the juice to simmerlng—not boiling—and keep it so for about thirty minutes, until clarified. This is to be effected by adinin- istering some alkali in solution. The best aikali for this purpose is the | super carbonate of soda. Put one heap- ing teaspoonful in a pint of water, dissolve | it, and pour it into the boiler of simmer- yOg Juice, SUr it up, and a violent efferves- ' cence takes place, ratsing four inches high; and finaily seuling ina thick greemsh scum all ovet the surface of ihe jmee.— Skim this off. aud repeat the process every few minutes, more |ss: but slop it as soon as, but vot before, ali effervescence ceases. The process will neutralize the sulpha- ne and vbosphone acids which abound in the Chivese sugar cane juice; and tie su- per earb. of soda is the purest and best alkali for this purpose, as sodium, the base ! The, of the peroxyd, is lighter than water, pressure of the mal forces out with the juice 2 great deal of green fecuious matter, which the alkali takes hold of by rhé at- traction of #s acids and brings to the sur- face asaseum, These constant skimmings will soon give you a clear juice, capable of of making a clear, thick acidiess syrup.— This use of suda | discovered ww 1857 by experimenting, and experience lias fully confirined its i supenoriy over all alkalies. other The Louisiana and West Iudia sugar | planters use inme dy purify the juice.
