THE NEWS.

Ex-Governor James H. Adams, of Richland District,
s. c. died at his residence in that district, on Satur-
day night.
The Petersburg Erp,ess says that about $50 North
Carolina troops, composing Company A, Capt.
Hall Company B, Captain Howard Company G.,
Captain Pool and Company 81, Captain Washing
tOn of Col. Tew's regiment (2nd State Troops)
passed through that City on Monday evening, on
their way to Richmond. The Express says they are
gallant looking men ard true soldiers, thoroughly
equipped, and prepared for the coming contest
These companies have been drilling for good many
weeks, some Of them for months and are in an excel
lent state of discipline.
The Portsmouth Transcript of the 18TH says that pri
vate VIM. Henry White, of the Portsmouth, Vir-
GINA Rifles, visited Raleigh last week and returned
to Portsmouth on last Friday night with one hun.
dred bran new rifles for the corps of which he is
excellent member. The new arms were obtained in
exchange for old ones, including quite variety
muskets, long and short, Enfield and other rifles
Now, we do not object to this courtesy to Virginia
or Virginia troops, but we do wish that it could be
extended TO North Carolina troops, some of whom
stationed in this vicinity are supplied with the Ole
flint and steel musket, and but poor supply OF fints
at that Why can't they also get new arms for old
report comes from New Orleans by way of Memphis
to the effect that the Confederate Steamer Sumter
had arrived at Berwick Bay, on the Mississippi, in

together with other accoutrements and large num-
Der of rifed cannon These things were on board al
English vessel bound for New Orleans, but were
transferred at sea to the Sumter If true this is i'm

WE DON'T THINK that we have much for which to
thank Great Britain or France on the score of prvateers
Privateers are the militia of the seas. They are the
protection that nation that does not keep up stand
ing navy has against one that does precisely the c
soldiery in free country takes the place of stand
ing army in defence of their country on land.
Now the Lincoln Government being eloniousy in
possession of all the navy that they have not destroyed
in an incendary manner the South far the is
concerned is thrown back upon her marine militia her
private armed ships. She has other. Neither Eng
land nor France will allow praUaeerS of either belige
rent the Northern the Southern States to sell prizes
in any of their ports to remain there with such pr-
yes over certain limited number of hours. Remember,
this blow at privateers strikes at our only naval force,
while the Lincoln government with her of war,
chartered public vessels carry prizes taken from
into any European Colonial port. Under the show of
treating both begerents alike the whole effect of the rule
practically considered, is directly against If we
expect anything of disinteresed friendship from either
Palnerson or Louis Napoleon will be woefully mis-
taken. We must depend first upon fighting this thing
out and second upon compelling recognition from the
world by virtue of natural position, and inherent COM
mercal strength The resort to prvateering is failure
and this failure is due to the operations and procama
tions of England and France
