North Carolina am dependent Republics


At O'Clock p m, on the glorious, but now twice
glorious Goth of May, the Safe Convention OF North
Carolina passed unanimously the ordinance of secession,
thus severng the shadow form of connection between
North Carolina and the once proud but now degraded
Union. We are no longer in name the subjects OF
King Abraham and bis military satraps, Scott Wool
or MIR. Butler of Lowell, Massachusetts,.
We understand that the Convention also on tie same
day. yesterday passed another ordinance providing for
the entrance of the State into the Conedracy soon
as the various forms and requirements be complied
with. This we suppose will be done promptly
There was little excitement here the receipt of the
news 1t was foregone conclusion, and no man could
have gone to the Convention who was opposed to Sc
cesssion The State was unit On the question o.
Immediately joining the Southern Confederacy there
may possibly be not quite large amount of unanim
IT, but We presume there will hardly be show O
opposition.
Strangely enough, although promised telegraphs from
sundry parties both in and out of the Convention,
are yet ignorant Of the organization officers of that
body and indeed OF everything about it further than
stated above.
This morning the Wilmington Horse Artillery fired
salute 10 honor of the independence of the State.
This is about the first salute fired here since the
citement commenced.
10 the interim, that we have left the one Union
and are not formally member of the other. not
simply sovereign and Independent State but we are
milton for this day at least.

WE LEARN that Major w. II. G. Whiting, of the O.
s. A., who has been Acting Inspector Gen OF the State
of North Carolina since the commencement OF the pres
ent difficulties has been ordered to Harpers Ferry.
We rather think that there work about Maj Whit
ing leaves this afternoon Captain Childs will probably
be ordered to the same point. Maj. Whiting is known
as an engineer officer of high standing Captain Chids
had secured the confidence and respect of all the officers
and men at the Forts here
Hsrpers Ferry is under the command of General
Johnson brave and able officer formerly of the United
States Army The troops there strongly enrenched
and fortified ably differed and superior in every respect
to any Northern force of anything like the num-
Der that can possibly be sent against them Harpers
Ferry will be found to be hard nut to crack.
aa- We would call attention to the great letter Of
Mr. Marcy to Count Sartiges, on the subject of priva
teerng. Its doctrines endorsed enthusiastically by
the whole North which turns up its innocent eyes
in holy horror at the idea of Southern privateers
THE PETERSBURG EXPRESS, on the authority of its
Norfolk correspondent say that there three hundred
Indians at that point, and that they from the
county of Cherokee n c.. and under the sklful train
ing of Gen. jackson, distinguished member of the
North Carolina Senate from Cherokee are now ready
for immediate action.
The only errors we find in the above statement are
first that the Indians are not from Cherokee-second
that they not under the skiul training of Gen
Jackson member of the North Carolina Senate and
third that we don't believe there is of them down
at Norfolk.
| The so-calltd Junauska Zouaves would probably
number about two hundred fighting men, the whole
tribe IA branch of the great Cherokee Nation)
numbering about 1900 souls. Col. Thomas, of Jack
son. who has long been the agent of this aboriginal
nant is their leader and advisor in all things Col
Thomas is something of pathfinder himself Few
know the geography OF the Southern Appalachian
country better and be and his Cherokees would henvau
able in any mountain partizan warfare but down at
Norfolk amid the hustle Of camps and thunder of great
guns, the simple jewellers around Quallatown would be
lost aud perhaps worse than useless.
"Junauska " the of favourite Chief OF
the tribe, said to be in many respects good man, and
who deserved well of the State.

Every Northern paper contains announcements such
as that government agent just returned from Rich

this to be borne, if it be avoided, if the pro-

to prevent it?
