FROM THE GLOBE.

The appearance ofa Circular, issued by the
Paymaster General, has given rise to attempt
TO convict the Government of inconsistency and
this paper of uttering falsehoods, in relation to
the notes of the United States Bank; and this is
done by one of the Bank organs in the grossest
language. evil explain the whole nature
of the transaction which gave rise to this Cir
cular that our friends may understand it, The
Federal papers may make what use of it their
well known regard to truth and justice will die
tate. The heavy drafts to the War Depa artment
for funds at distant points, which were supplied
by drafts on the Bank Of the United States, given
for the purchase money of the bond due by that
institution to the Government were likely to
produce great Inconvenience TO the distant banks
in which the funds OF the principal debtor Bank
had been deposited to meet the payments if drawn
out altogether in specie; especially so immediate
ly after the resumption of specie payments by
those institutions. Letters were exhibited to the
War Department, representing the serious in
convenience to the banks and, consequently, to
the commerce OF that part of the country if the
call for specie, when not required by the credi
tors ofthe Government, was persisted in. In
consequence of these representations, the Depart
ment authorized the bureaus to instruct their
several disbursing officers to check on the banks,
that the public creditor might have the option OF
receiving the notes ofspecie paying banks ifthey
preferred to do so, or demand the specie, right
which this mode of proceeding does not deprive
them Of The Government makes no war upon
the banks; it merely desires to see their opera
tions confined within their legitimate sphere
It will at all times he disposed to extend such le
gal accommodations to the banks, and TO COM
merce, as may be in its power; and never has
made war upon the Legitimate pursuits of either.
This, however, is what the Federal papers will
not understand and are determined TO misrep-
resent.

of all parties in the South who are honest
enough to be wise, can you any longer doubt
that Abolition is identified with the cause OF
opposition to the Administration The peo-
pie of the South must rouse up to the danger
that threatens-open their eyes to the delu-
sions that have misled-and over-awe the
prejudices that blind. A great and mighty
conflict is at hand, the alternative it is not now
Difficult to see !
Are you ready! Beware-beware Of divi-
Eions among ourselves Be guarded against
men who will clamor for the South and yet
give succor to the allied forces that are COM
bined against you.
Take care that we are not surprised in our
5upineness. North Carolina ought to take
Ehe lead-her voice might rally our sister
States-he Legislators might bury old grudg-
es and set the noble example to others-she
will be followed-and if not there will be none
TO share with her the glory of the deed. But
her voice for Union will create it, and the
moral effect of perfect union parties, a final
surrender of party feuds to support Mr.. VAN
buren, against Abolitionists and newborn
heartleSs pretenders to real Whiggery, will be
worthy of her fame.
1t will revive the recollection of other davs.
1t will turn away the bitterness of pres,
ent strife and difference between Northern
hnd Southern States.
