NORM. CAROLINA IKDN.-0n Tuesday we had the
pleasure of seeing the first consignment of lot of
Pig Iron from that amazingly rich property, Ore
Hill, on Deep River, in Chatham county. 1t came
down by the railroad Monday, 1000 lbs, for one
of the foundrieS in Wilmington. The property is
owned and worked by Chatham company, for
which Hugh w. Dixon is Agent, and Col. Babbing-
ton Superintendent. Mr.. Dixon writes us that they
are now making fifteen tons per week, and will be
able to make more than double that quantity, and
improve the quality, in few weeks, after getting in
their " Hot Blast"
This immense deposite Of iron ore, Of the brown
hematte species has been often described, and no
one has ever seen it without being amazed that it
was so long neglected. When we visited it, few
years ago. there was an excavation, where ore had
been taken for manufacture during the Revolution
the space thus excavated being perhaps one mil
loDth part of the whole. After the revolution, the
proprietors had been content to depend on England
first and the yankees afterwards for their hollow
ware though inferior in quality TO that made at
home and though the freight alone, to say nothing
of duties, charges and profits, would have been and
and will be, large profit on the manufacture.
We understand that the casting Of hollow
has been resumed, after the lapse of eighty years
and that it is purchased as fast as made. The cast
ing of pigs however, will he the principal business
of the works.
This establishment is not to be COMPOUNDED with
the Tysor property, at which Mr. Colville is making
or is preparing to make, bar IRON. We have not
heard recently Of the operations at this point

DEAR SIR: Having learned through a source
which is entitled to credit that certain traitors liars
and towards, who, having fled from the county after
the surrender Of Forts Hstteras and Clark have in
different parts Of the State given as a reason for
their cowardly fight, that Messrs. William S. Car
ter, Milton Selby and myself a committee of safety
for the county, are submssionists and had advised
the people Of the county to submit to the Lincoln
government; all of which pronounce as UNANIMOUSLY
false. The people of this county, with the excep-
ton of those on the banks land there is no commu-
nication whatever between the two sections of the
county, as loyal to, and will go far rcpel-
ling the enemy as any people in the Confederate

Why THE NORTH PROsECCTES THE WAR-The
New Orleans Bee, in article on the war; says ::
1t has been not unplausibly conectured that one
OF the principal reasons why the North is so resolved
upon the continued vigorous prosecution Of the war;
is that her people now know by experience the in
eStimable value to them of the Southern trade If
they knew this before they affected to deny It, and
sought persistenty to disparage our wealth and
sources. Since the commencement OF hoSttieS
they have gradually lost the entire commerce Of the
South, and they well aware that it, for all future
time, this vast source Of Opuence is forfeited by
them, the mercantile marts of New England and
the Middle States will be hopelcssly ruined Moth
ing can possibly save them except the recovery Of
that magnificent trade which had enriched y. York
Boston and Philadelphia, and created millionaires
and merchant princes in those cities. 1t may be
urged that the South can again be induced to
maintain important business relations with the
North. Probably this would be the case were the
South permitted quietly TO accomplish the work
Of separation Hence the people of the North think
their only chance of getting back Southern trade
Of making country once more tributary to their
growth and aggrandlzement, Is 10 conquer us, hold
as subject provinces, and compel Us to resume
the former channels of mercantile communication
They freely acknowledge that the war Injuries them
terribly, but they argue that the sacrifice, immense
il is, will be more than compensated by the re-
turn of the Southern States in the Union. More
over they affirm that to give up the struggle would
entail upon them irretrievable pecuniary disaster
and that they cannot lose by continuing it es-
pecially they hold that it must prove in the end
successful.

Ma HoIDEN:-Modest merit especially in these
times, is too apt to be overlooked. Men who push
themselves or who have social family, or politi-
cal influence to back them, are generally placed in
Office; while meritorious persons who have none of
these advantages who have them to less extent
than others, are overlooked. This is not right As
q general rule the man who pushes himself for Of
flee is the last man who ought to have office; and
the modest man. who does not press his claims, is
not called into the pabc service and the country is
thereby the loser szss -

Mr. EprroR: see in the announcements that
Robert p. Dick, ESQ, is a candidate to repre-
sent this, the sixth district, in the Confederate

many friends in this county, that he has conser-
ted to become candidate, beirG eminently conser-
rative in his views | think there cannot be found
b person more suited 10 the trying scenes that we
arc now passing through. shall support Mr.. Dick
Tor the following reasons:
First: Because that in State Convention,
when there was a party cudeavoriRg to act and did
act without consulting the will of the people, r. P
Dick with some other good and true men, stood up
and battled manfully for the rights of the people
Yes, the people remember well the speech he made
In that Convention. wish you would publish that
speech again, and let it be shown to the voters of
this district Not only did he speak for our liber-
ties andju rights, but on all occasions he voted
right 49,
Secondly: When the seven regiment bill was
brought up, we find Mr. Dicks name recorded in
favor Of the passage of it When tine bill was re-
considered and brought up second time we find
that instead Of trucking to that low and miserable
PARTY spirit which is and has been encouraged by
the Authorities about Raleigh-we find him still
voting for the passage of The BILL which would have
put our coast in a proper state of defence; but
shame upon others it fahed-and all We the peo-
pie desire isa pull at of them. If this bill
had passed and the matter been properly managed,
not Yankee would have been on our soil But to
crafty ambitious men the bill was defeated and
now the people must be taxed millions of dollars,
snd hundreds of lives, to gain the position that We
once held and could have still held with very little
cost. .Alamsnce will do her whole duty. She
knows how TO appreciate talent patriotism, and
craftsmanship, and you will be astonished at the
vote Mr. Dick will get in this county. tell you,
all parties as far as my knowledge extends, are

political differences, and vote for men, such men as
will watch with jealous eye the liberties of the

". IT. Holden, Esq. :

". ". Holden, Es4.:
DEAR SrR:-I could not if were so disposed,
write you letter for publication; but | have long
desired to call your attention to subject of vital
interest to North Carolina.
1t is the opinion of those best informed that we
shall have some hot work upon the coast of North
Carolina, and that if the enemy be kept out of the
interior of the State and Fayetteville and its arsenal
saved 1t must be by the stern bravery and valor of
North-Carolina's sons Even while write, he may
he in possession of Wilmington. Something must
be done, and speedily done. Our State must be re-
deemed the invader driven from her SOIL or so sur
rounded that he can only cry in pitcous tones for
water, and this can be accomplished and that too
with North-Carolina troops, if lin my opinon) the
proper course be pursued We all know that those
at home have rallied to their countrys call as only
treemen can rally and now ready " to do or die"
We are willing to accord to them all the virtues of
the brave but We cannot close eyes to the fact
that they are undisciplined and badly armed and
will have to meet Lincolns best equipped and best
disciplined troops, and that too with large odds
against them.
Now we would not complain of this, out would
meet them cheerfully if it the best that could
be DONE but If other and better means of defence
can be found, ought not North Carolina and her sis
tiers to avail themselves of them?
We have other means-material that oupht IN he
used, and the sooner the better There are now in
the army Of observation " in Virginia, the I'd Sd
and 4th North Carolina regiments all well drilled
well armed and equipped, that in all probability will
serve out their time and never see the enemy: who
| will only do what can be done as we'll by new re-
cruts These regiments have not only drilled, they
have worked also; and breast works every where
greet the eye so that undisciplined force could
hold in check vastly superior and well disciplined
enemy. The works are completed, they have but to
take possession, drill hard, and wait the approach
Of the enemy.
Would it not be well then to send the North Car.
olina regiments now forming to these points where
they will be supported by experienced troops rather
than to our coast where there are no troops that
have been IN service long, and where they will not
be employed in drilling, but in throwing up works
behind. which they must soon fight; if indeed they
do not have to fight before that can be done
Let the troops that are here be sent to the coast
of North Carolina to meet the enemy and drive him
from our State Their presence viii inspire the
troops already there with new hope, and brighter
day will soon dawn upon US. tits highly important
