As soon rs the vote was announced one hundred
guns were fred on Capitol Square. and the bells of
the city were ruug, amid the shouts Of an excited
multitude.
An ordinance was hen unanimously passed adopt
ing the Provisiona! Government of the Confederate
Stats; ami to>day (ruesday) no doubt the Constr
tuition OF the Con ederste States will be adopted, and
North Carolina will thus take her place as mem
Der Of The Confederate States.
Thus was the anniversary Of the Mecklenburg
Declaration OF independence gloriously celebrated
by the delegates OF the people in Convention assem-
blct. North Carolina has been slow TO art but she
has acted finally. We think she has acted wisely
from first 20 last Hencaorth her destnies are with
the States Of the South and she will make good
her act Of the goth of May 1861 with her last doll
lar and her last man. if such sacrifice should be
required a. her hands.
