Rays of Light.

1t is stated that private letters have been received
in Washington from prominent citizens of Georgia
and Alabama, indicating more favorable sentiments
in relation to the maintenance of the Union. AL
though decided reaction has taken place, there is
an evident disposition manifested in influential quar-
tiers to postpone final action secession and await
the development of public opinion in the border
slavcholdng States.
In addition to this the House committee of thirty
three held their first meeting the 1ath at which
favorable action was taken. Mr. Rust, of Arkansas,
offered the following resolution:
"Resolred, That in the opinion Of this Committee
the existing discomfort among the Southern people
and growing hostility on teir part towards the Fed
eral Government are greatly to bc regretted and
whether such diScontents and hostility are or are
not without Just cause, reasonable and proper

protection of their peculiar interest recognized by
the national compact such as are necessary to pre-
serve the peace of the country and the perpctuty of
the Union, should he promptly and checrfully gran

Mr.. Morrill,, of Vermont, offered an amendment
not so favorable to the South the above, which
was rejected yeas g. nays q. Mr.. Ferry, of Conn.,,
moved resolution as substitute, which was re-

An immense mass meeting of Constitutional
Union men was held in Philadelphia on the 18th,
the Mayor presiding. The City was decorated with
flags, the motto of many being, CONCESSION before
Secession" 1t was the largest and most imposing
meeting held in that City. The resolutions
adopted are all that Southern men could desire.

Constitutional Union Meetings.

We publish to-day the proceedings Of Constitu-
tiona Union meeting held in Surry county. We
shall publish in our next subsequent issues the
proceedings of similar meetings held in Bere. Gull
ford, at Elevation, in johnson, and in the Auburn
district, Wake county. We learn that the Auburn
meeting was ably addressed by @. Busbee and D.
G. Fowle, Esquires, of this City. Meetings of
similar character are to be held soon in Orange,
Carteret Person and Rowan.
A very large meeting was held in Fayetteville on
the 4th instant Hon. Jesse G. Shepherd presiding,
d. McDiarmid and Joel Williams, Esoures, Vice
Presidents, and Messrs j. C. Dobbin and j. A.
Pemberton Secretaries. Some excellent resolutions,
reported by B. R. Huske, Esq, from commit
tee of gentlemen of both parties were adopted. Res
olutons differing in substance and tone from those
adopted, were offered and rejected Among the re-
ected resolutions endorsing that part of the
Governors message relating to federal affairs. The
resolutions adopted by the meeting no doubt en-
body the sentiments of vast majority of the people
of Cumberland.
The Wilmington Journal raises its voice against
"Union meetings." Is the Editor afraid to hear the
voice of the people? Is it wrong impolitic at
this time to speak out for Constitutional Union
We think not. The Editor of the Journal is more
than pleased at secession meetings but he is tired
of that word "Union" We tell him that the great
body of the people of this State just beginning
to speak, The towns and villages have been heard
from to some extent; but the great body of the peo
pie who do not live in towns, and who are not un-
duly excited by contact and discussions with each
other are now coming forward to record their judg
ments. That record DiU be for the Constitution
and the Union, and against present secession.-
Mark the prediction.
We again say to the people without respect to
party, hold your meetings-hold them in your Cap
tain's districts as well at your county Seats Let
your voices be heard If professional politicians,
under the influence Of the Governor of the State
who is committed to disunion, attempt to lead you
or dictate to you, tell them to stand aside and to
learn that you, and not they, are the masters in
North Caroline. If disun!on comes, the people will
have to bear the consequences. If soldiers are
called for the people will have to shoulder their
muskets and march, If more money shall e want
ei the people will have to pay it over to the sherfs
Let the people, then, decide this momentous ques-
tion for themselves and let mere agitators, and
those who have nothing to lose but every thing to
gain by revolution, and the two-penny orators, who
speak but to inflame and who in the day of DANGER
like Thersites, would do more talking than fghing
be made to knoao their places. When the lion roars
let the mice and the minks retire to their holes.

when compared with the mighty sectional despctism

reracc their steps, As soon as these leaders attempt
to establish strong gorernment-a government
based on the subsection of the many to the will of
the few-and soon as the people begin to suffer,
as they ciu suffer- under oppressive taxes destroy
ed trade forced sales Of property for specie and
bridled military rule they will turn on the men who
have msled them, and, taking their own cause into
their own hands, re-unite their destines with the
Union. At this time, however, the very considera-
BILE minority in South Carolina who are opposed to
disunion afraid to speak out. There is no free
dom of speech in that State. Such condition of
things is unnatural, and cannot long continue The
revusion will come and it will be felt when it does

The Pretext for Disunion.

There can be no doubt that large portions of the
people of South Carolina Alabama, and other cotton
States delighted with the election of Lincoln be-
cause it afforded them pretcxt or occasion for sece

We ask the attention Of our readers to the SINH

Mr. Venable, the President of the Electoral Coege&
of this State, in adjourning the College: 1--WE may
well doubt" says Mr.. Venabe, the value Of furth

who persist in disregarding the present guarantees
of the Constitution. A bond for debtor who RI
fuses to pay it. will be but slightly secured by anoth
er bond by the same debtor, which he never means
to pay" In other words, the Mercury despairs of
and hates the Union-and so does Mr. Venable. If
this fact had been known during the canvass, Mr..
Venable would not have received twenty thousand
votes as Eector Deception has been practiced on
the Democratic party of this State and Mr. Venable
had hand in it But speaking Of the personal lib
