efficient service. This company is composed of some
of the most respectfully connected gentlemen in the
State-married as well as single. They know no
allegiance to the South, and resolved to die
rather than be subjugatcd. True courage is the

Our Correspondence,

We give some extracts from the letters of few
of our correspondents received by the late mails.
A friend in Onslow county, May 81, writes thus:
81 cannot refrain from expressing in this connec-
ton the veryshigh qualification which feel in know
ing that you have achieved q signal triumph over
such formidable combinations as have recently been
arrayed against YOU personally ana otherwise and
especially do rejoice over your success in the late
election for although abandoned the old Federal
Union and its cause at least a couple of months be-
fore you did, still, if l had been a citizen of Wake
county, it would have afforded me pleasure to cast
a vote for you, believing that you were honest in
your professions, loyal to section any man,
and when the time arrived, in your judgment, to
give up the ship, that you would leave her, and
stand as immovaby fixed upon the side of the Con-
federate Government as any other person, without
regard to station or interest. And find am right
in thus estimating your character"
A correspondent writing from Wilmington under
date of May 90, says:
"Alow me even at this late day. to congratulate
you upon your triumph. Your triumph was the
triumph of many throughout the State.
have lately seen in your paper some implied
criticisms on the appointments made by Gov. Ellis
and the Advisory Board In them you are right
and the great mass of the people are with you. l
notice among the appointments made, some of them
are men who had failed to be elected to offices in
volunteer companies on account of pure unitness.
may be old fogyish, but think sobriety and good
moral character very essential requisites for
officer. Whereas, it seems as if decided prefer.
ence was for those who can drink most whiskey.
To leave entirely out of view the question of making
former party faith test would be right but even
partyism would be very allowable did all the ap-
pointments to the proper standard of morals
and intellect"
A business letter from friend at Eagle Rock, in
this county, dated June 8, contains the following:
"You will get more subscribers soon. The voters
of Eagle Rock can account, as they think, for the
course of our friends, Messrs Syme Hall, towards
you, but they cannot guess the reason why they
have made such an attack on the Hon. George E.
Badger. If the election was now to take place.
yours Badgers and Battles vote would be increased
at least fifty at Eagle Rock precinct
1t is said that there were printed tickets for
the compromise ticket. That is not so. l can show
a number of them, printed at the Register office"

southern Congress.

1t Win be seen by the Convention Proceedings,
that there has been some discussion about appoint
ing members to the Southern Congress In order
to avoid any complaints about the matter the Con-
vention might order an election by the people; but
that would no doubt create party contest which
ought by all means, to be avoided at this time For
the sake OF harmony we are willing to anything
that's fair. Let us have no quarreling about the
omces while common enemy is threatening our
rights and invading our soil
As the State will be entitled to ten Representa-
tives how would it do for the people to elect one
from each Congressional District, ann the Conven-
ton two from the State at large Char. Democrat
The editor of this paper has already introduced
resolution into the Convention authorizing an cleo
ton of delegates to the Confederate Congress by
general ticket by the people early in July. We did
so for two reasons first because it is the right Of
the people to elect them, and it is eminently fit
and proper time for them to do it Secondly, to re-
move from the Convention this great temptation to
electioneering and party manauvreing. There is
more danger far more, at this time, to NorthCaro-
lima from the bad influences of partizan elections in
the Convention, than there is among the people.
We hope the conservatives will be able to carry it
through, but are well aware that the precipita-
tors or squads will resist it.

in the minds of protested Democrats by secessiOnism
Our eyes and ears have been astounded at the deve
opments which few months have made, of the
most radical changes upon the principles of popular
government in the minds of those who had been
regarded as sound Democrats for many years. They
still profess to be Democrats but it is empty pro-
fession. We could trust simon pure, old Hartford
Convention Federalists, on questions affecting the
popular rights of the people, as readily as we can
trust them. Nothing is more common, since the
secession Juror began, than to hear professed Dem
ocrats declare, that zoe must hare stronger gov
ernment," the people are not capable of sefgov-
ernment" their privileges must be abridged" and
such like expressions. Whereas, Il can be shown
to demonstration that all the instances of friction
and misrule in the machinery of our government,
has arisen from the corruptions, imbecty or wick
edness of the rulers and not from the corruption or
ignorance of the people
People of North Carolina the oligarchs and squads
not willing to trust you with important elections
and the control of public affairs, if they help it
We call upon you to maintain your inalienable and
your constitutional rights unimpalred. Hand them
down to your children and your childrens children
