The Grand Patriarch makes mention as
follows of the death of Andrew j Power,
late a Representative from KosciuskO
County:
While death has been abroad in our
land during the last six months, so sar as
| am advised, no member of this Grand
EDcampment has been chosen a victim
by the monster, except our Grand Junior
Warden, A. j. Power. He is gone. We
miss him because his seat is vacant. Who
of you that were here six short months ago,
does not recollect Patriarch Power, whose
social, kind, genial spirit, made him so
we'll known and beloved, that you elected
him, over worthy competitors, to the Office
he would have filled so creditably and
faithfully. But he is gone! We shall see
him no more on earth-no more shall we
see his smile or hear his pleasant jest. Six
months ago none looked more like living
than Re, in the pride of his manhood, and
the very picture of good health; but he is
gone. He departed this life on the 9TH of
April, 1860. Pat. .archs, while we mourn
our Brother, let US take warning by this
dispensation of Gods Providence, aud re-
member that we too must die. Let us re-
alize that, in all human probability, when
six months more shall have passed away,
that some of us will have been claimed as
victims of the grim monster. We know
not how many. Let US each individually
realize that he may be the mark for death s
unerrIng shaft, and let US resolve that our
course of conduct shall be such that, when
the dreadful summons does come, we can
say we are ready. Let Us work. then,
while it is dag, for the night Of death
cometh in which no man can work Ind.

NORTH-CAROLINA RESORTS.

Mr. EpIToR: have been pleased to see in your
columns advertisements of Beaufort, White Sulphur
Springs, in Catawba county, and Kittrell's Springs
in Granville county. These, with many other places
in North Carolina, furnish as heathfu and as pleas
ant resorts any North; while they are nearer
home less expensive, and visitors are not subjected
to insults from fools and fanatics.
To those who desire sea-breeZcS and sea-bathing
Beaufort is the place have never had the pleasure
of visiting it myself but from faithful descriptions
| doubt not it is one Of the most pleasant summer
resorts upon the whole Atlantic coast.
The Messrs. Blackna the proprietors Of the Kit
trell Springs are intelligent and enterpriSng gen.
tlemen, and have made heavy OUTLAWS in preparing
for the accommodation of visitors The qualities OF
the water are unsurpassed by any chaly in the
country. and their healing and hcalth-givng effects
in scrofula, all cutaneous and many other diseases
almost infallible. They situated in a highly
picturesque country, where the lovers Of the beau
tiful in nature cannot fail to be charmed.
The White Supher Springs, in Catawba, hereto
fore almost inaccessible easily reached the
Western \. c. Railroad running within five miles
of them. They are in a portion Of country that
"downcountry people" would consider mountain
GUS and surrounded by wealthy and intelligent
population Notwithstanding their almost i'm
pregnablt position" heretofore, the extraordinary
medicinal qualities of the water have obtained for it
a widespread reputation. | am glad to see that
Capt. II. l.. Robards, Of Salisbury, has become the
proprietor Of these Springs. | speak knowingly
when | say he is host of himself for he has been
"mne host" many times. He has fairly won and
deServedy wears the soubriquet of "the ndomita-
BILE" With him and his far better half the White
Sulphur is destined to become great institution"
Let Southern people, and especially North Caro-
linans patronize their home resorts, wear home
manufactures and support home industry, and they
will find their purses heavier, and their conscien-
ces Clearer.

ELIZABETH CRY, May IL, 1860
Mr.. EDITOR: In looking over your paper few
days SINCE my eyes fell upon short paragraph in
regard to holding at carly day Military Con-
vention by the military men of our State. am
glad to see such move, and hope that such Con-
vention may meet. Thinking of the same move,
caused to be published not long since communica-
ton the subject in the Elizabeth City State with
request that the papers throughout the State would
copy the same, with any comments that might Sug-
gest themselves. Whether the Standard copied or
not am not aware; several of the papers in other
parts of the State dd do So and all favored the pro-
ject. l think the time spoken Of (May or June) is
entirely too early and would suggest to you to agi
tate the movement and put the time of meeting on
the day of opening State Fair in October next.
By that time all the volunteer soldery throughout
the State could hold meetings and appoint delegates
and all the regiments of Militia could by that time
also select delegates, and no doubt we would have
large Convention. A great many would make it
convenient to attend to be present At the Fair
On account Of the election campaign now going on
a large attendance would be impossible in May or
June; hence another reason for taking October for
the time Of meeting.
Such a meeting is highly necessary for the pur-
pose of having free exchange Of opinion in regard
to framing new Militia Bill out and out to he SUBJ
mitted to the next Legislature. For the purpose of
giving the subject the Importance that | think it
ought to have, would suggest to His Excelency,
the Governor, as he is our COmmanderin Chief that
he request of the volunteer sodiery of the State to-
gether with the Militia proper, to send delegates to
Raleigh on the occasion spoken of for the purpose
of having Military Convention. The occasion
would be the means of adding another attraction to
the CITY of Oaks" for the assembling of 200 or
800 soldiers clad in their respective uniforms would
be peasantIsight indeed. For in that Convention
Democrats and their opponents could sit without
quarreling over the Cincinnati Delaware, Tennessee,
Alabama any other Platform. Squatter sove-
regnty and Territorial protection the South would
be declared out of order; for in that Convention
would be found band Of brother soldiers, met for
the purpose Of devsng the best means Of protecting
our good old State if the time should come when she
should be sssailed. Then let us have the Conyen-
