DRIED ToMAToEs.- may not be generally
known, that ripe tomatoes can be almost as east
ly dried as apples, and thus be made available
for stewing purposes, at all seasons of the year.
in any locality inland, away from the influence
of the damp ocean winds, tomatoes that are not
more than an inch in thickness if cut through
The middle fatwise, and each part spread with
the cut side upward to the sun, upon hurdles or
any fixture by which the air can have free access
10 the lower side as well as top can be dried in
our climate of heat and sunshine, with the least
possible trouble, and in the most prefect manner
in very few days. If no better arrangement
can be secured, simply clean, straight straw
few inches thick laid upon the ground answers
very good purpose as the drying bed. Those
fond of tomatoes, who can eat them if stewed
with the skins on, will find the dried article but
little, if any, inferior to the best undried

NoRTH-CAROLINA IN THE CoSvESTroN-We are
more than pleased with the position of our delegates
at Charleston They have acted the part of patriots
and men, thus far, and we do trust that they will
not be led off by fear from the conservative posi-
ton which they have taken. 1t is well fo- these
Southern extremists that few conservative men
exist among them in Charleston, and that each of
their representatives little further into the fu-
ture than their fanatical and contracted minds will
permit them TO discern Civil war with all its hor
rors, the bloody sword and death dealing rife are
not matters to be esteemed light between breth-
rem of one confederacy! And whilst it is the duty
of the South to hold dear and sacred every right
which she enjoys under the Constitution neverthe-
less, mere abstract questions, where no rights are
involved. should not be sufficient cause to force
her to the dreaded and fearful alternative of disso
luton Of the Union We say it boldly and careless
ly, the Southern people do not endorse, can rot
will not counenance this overt act OF the seceders
they will find on returning to the people their Just
condemnation, and we believe, many OF them will
be compelled reluctantly to retire for a season ana
give place to men who will better represent the
wishes Of their constituents.
In conversation on yesterday with gentlman
from Alabama who a delegate to Charleston,
he remarked to US that the secession the act of
the delegates but not Of the people of Alabama,
land that the nominee of the regular convention
would carry the electoral vote of the State" We be-
leve this is the with every State in the South,
except Carolina and if her citizens were al
lowed to vote it would lie the same with her.
North-Carolina will be prepared, when her rights
are infringed by the North, to take up the sword
in defence Of the South. And when she does, she
will never sheath it till victory and glory shall perch
upon her proud banner; till then she is FOR THE
UNION 1T Is.-Fdy. CarOlinian.

HHAT Will BE TIE tREsuIf What viii be the
reslt Of the proceedings Of the National Democratic
Convention af Charleston. and ho9 vii it effect the
Democratic party, are questions frequently asked.
We beliese haiti will an be right m the end and
that the Conyenfion which is to meet in Baltimore
on the 18th OF June win harmonic on q national
conservative platform. and nominate man around
when the South. the West and the North will rally
This is the opinion Of several of the Charleston
delegates with whom we have conversed There is
no doubt but that strong disnnion sentiment was
entertained by many of the delegates who Withdrew
from the National Convention, and visions Of FORM
ing Southern, enfederacy ldazzied their eyes to a
great extent We do not say that all the delegates
who Withdrew are 10 favor of dissolying the Union
but 1t is well known that this is the pet idea with
some OF them, and doubt they preferred that the
National Convention should disorganize rather than
act together and make q domination We do not
impugn the motives of all the seeding delegates,
for some Of them afterwards expressly declared that
they were opposed TO any dissolution movement
but we canno. say as much for Yancey and others
Of his stripe.
No doubt the opposition party in North Carolina
will make every effort possible to injure GOV. Ellis
and the Democratic party of the State by referring
to the proceedings at Charleston but with all re.
flecting and unprecedented people they will utterly
fail. The democratic party Of North Carolina occu-
pies high national ground-the delegation at Charles
ton acted prudently and, we think correctly, and
their action ought 10 be approved by every man who
is in favor Of preserving the Union and the integrity
Of the democratic party The vote of the State was
cast IN favor Of platform fully avowing the rights
Of The South and in accordance with the Constitu-
ton Of the country; and though our delegates did
not get the platform adopted which they preferred
they determined to remain in the Convention and
try and secure the nomination of a true national
man, believing that upon the preservation of the
great democratic party depended the existence of
the Union. We hope the State will be fully repre-
scented at Baltimore and that the delegates will again
contend for distinct avowal of the rights of the
South and for nominee who will give satisfaction
to all sections. .H s...
Certainly no one can now say, with truth, that
the democratic party Of North Carolina is disunion
party. Its delegates at Charleston are as true
Southern men as can be found but they together
with Virginia, Tennessee, and other Southern dele
cations, hesitated before taking step that would
in all probability result in dissolution of the Union
While standing firm on principle, they preferred to
use their influence for harmony and conservative
action They did right, and the people of North
Carolina Will sustain them and the party they rep
resent-ChdrLotte Democrat
