Beware of Unfounded Rumors.

1t would seem to be unnecessary to caution the
public against unfounded newspaper rumors after
what has taken place in this respect during the last
two or three months. But the recent rumors that
reSsels eff Charleston-that hostili-
ties had commenced, about TO commence, and
that Lincoln acas shedding the blood Of Southern
men on Southern soil-al of which rumors are to-
tally unfounded, furnish a suitable occasion for
again cautoning every one to beware of false re-
ports. These reports, verify believe, gotten
up systematically and for effect, by persons en-
ployed by the dsunionists. 1t is known that the
Order of the Knights of the Golden Circle was
mainly instrumental in taking Texas out of the
Union in revolutionary manner; and that this
Order pervades all the slaveholding States. This
Order or some other secret organization is at work
in this State; and the sequel will show, in our opin-
on that these reports form part of the plan which
is on foot to precipitate" the border States out Of
the Union.
1t was stated about a week since, that mime
black Republican Governors were in secret conclave
at Washington" This statement was shown to be
false but meanwhile it had travelled and gathered in
significance and magnitude, until in Franklin county,
in this State as friend has informed US it had come
to be believed by at least intelligent person,
that these nine Governors had been in conclave in
Raleigh, plotting war against the South! A repe-
tition of the old story of the "three black crows
Again we say beware of false rumors. Sift every
statement and believe nothing except on the clear.
