tabt Of gisi,ing us daily when the weather is noEt
too stormy.
They are under the impression that we are ep rely
5o,rned out and have threatened, as eoo'i AS the
storm was over, to come down and Tag us all.
They win find that we are quite as ady to receive
them as ever and, when the retr .orcemens arrive,
which we daily expect, they mad better watch us
well, for the season has arrived when it will be
necessary for armies TO c,ve in order to keep mp
circulation Of the blood.
The recent CONVEX tion which was held by the
loyal citizens of tniS County, has been bomb-she
in the rebel camp. The Raleigh IN. C) Standard
says chat "unlf.ss this movement is stopped at once
by the strong arm of the Confederate States more
than hall " the counties in this State will be at
tached TO the Black Republican Government before
the Unior. Congress meets" This paper reads the
Confederate Congress a severe Lesson "for leaving
this matter with North Carolina to attend to, when
it is very evident that the State authorizes Will never
make move in this direction, owing to the reason
that they are in the same boat with the UniOniss.'
There is the secret. How unfortunate il is for the
traitors 10 have at least stubborn State, whose
authorities are half inclined TO cut loose from the rot

continue TO pitch into each other at the same rate
Such a turmoil as is now witnessed throughout this
State caused by these County Conventions who are
creating so much excitement by publicly proclaimng
their independence from the Southern Confederacy,

! Raleigh Standard may find its way here weekly,
forwc are desrols to learn how this local hight wth
the counties will end. The Standard says, that 1t
would not be 80 surprising if the counties should
grumJe little at the heavy tax imposed upon them,
but to talk about repudang the entire Government
because they are taxed higher than usual is triug
with a serious matter. This s just where the shoe
pinches; to expect people to remain silent under
such burdens and priyations Is expecting something
, more thar has ever been realized from any people
since the world was created and the revolution now
going on against this oppression in this State Is Just
what will follow in all the Seeded States
Tie next movement win be a call for united ae-
ton from large majority of the counties in North
Carolina, when a Provisional State Government
will be organized. You may look for something Of
this kind before long, at this rate. The predictions
Of TEc Standard will prove TO be reality; and Il
this entire State Government is not in the hands OF
loyal men by the first day OF January, or before,
am no prophet.
The Legislature Of this State also receives a &C.
we're raking down for their inactivity and lack Of
sympathy for the Confederate cause" Says lhe
Standard. "If we were TO have new election TO-

1t is very evident that Secession is on It's last legs

1t appears that FIVE Of the North Carolina regi'

disbanded and surrendered their arms TO the State.
