Wenevcrknew so determined so united feeling
pervading the South and never witnessed as little
superficial excitement in its expression. People say
little because they mean all they say-the time for
mere talking is over. We think most people would
like to see VIM. ii. Seward nominated by the North
e,n Opposition, which means the Black Republicans
for the reason that the issue would then be made
so plainly that he who runs might read. There IS
desire to get at the root of the matter at once If

About one hundred conservative citizens of New
York assembled at the Lafarge House on Wednes-
day last to express their sentiments in behalf Of
the South in reference to the recent outbreak in.
Virginia, and to make arrangements for public
meeting at further day. The meeting was address
sed by Judge Bronson, B. M. Whitlock, Esq, and
Hon. James Brooks. Their remarks were patriotic
and to the point Judge Bronson said that all
Northern owed it to themselves and to the cause
of the Union to satisfy the South that they intend
to stand by the principles upon which the Constitu
ton was formed" Mr.. Brooks said, when danger
existed sefsacriice was ne ressary if danger did
not exist it was our duty when frebrands were
thrown among our neighbo,s, to let them know they
did not come from u.s." He added that whatever
might be the feeling of Indifference to the Union,
and the disregard for that bond, he thanked God
that the bond of commerce strong enough to
keep the Union together, ~ 49,
A committee of thirteen, consisting Of the follow

for the meeting: Matthew Morgan, Watts Sherman,

~ We invite the attention of our readers, and
especially of merchants to the following article from
the Fayetteville Observer 1t is high time that We
were learning to depend on ourselves, and to live
within ourselves Let resolve to purchase as few
Northern made articles as possible Let us develop
resources by encouraging our own manufacturers
and mechanics. We have alked long enough-lct
US act The Observer, speaking of Southern manu-
features, says:
ain the present very natural excitement 1t nav
perhaps to some of our Southern merchants
and their customers, that they have been pursuing
very unwise and Improbable policy in preferrng to
buy Northern domestic goods, or similar Southern
goods from Northern wholesale house, rather than
to buy Southern goods from the Southern manufac-
turer The result of this most unpatriotc system
is that Southern Factories nger out sickly exis-
tence and that there no temptation to add to their
number, because those We have do not pay, and
their capital stock is unsaleabe almost any price
Here arc, for instance, in Fayetteville and its imme-
diate vicinity cotton factories producing heavy
and honestly nude sheetings, shirtings, osnaburgs
and yarns. We hazard little in saying that the
towns of fayetteville and Wilmington alone sell as
many such goods all those seven factories make.
But the merchants of Fayetteville and Wilmington
buy such goods in the Northern cities in preference
to getting them at home at an equal or a loacer
price-never at higher price. Well, the conse-
quence is, that the manufacturers here not being
able to sell at home obliged to ship their goods
to Northern markets. And what does that cost !?
There is dead loss of from 3 to 10 per cent. on
every such shipment, in freights, insurance. and
commissions, all Of mhich goes into the pockets ot
Northern One factory alone in this place. out
of the pays every year in such charges nearly
ten thousand dollars about equal to the inter
est on the entire capital invested Our factories are
therefore enriching Northern men, whilst they i'm
poverish the owners here The very reverse would
he true if Southern merchants and their customers
would buy Southern manufactured goods. The
South would be enriched; it would take step, and
a very decided one towards that kind of indcpend-
ence which ought to he desired by every patriot
and it would withdraw so much from the fattening
of those who are every day showing themselves
more and more our enemies"
