Another one of FuIton,s Jokes.

We concur with our friend of the Id Valorem
Banner of this place, that
1.-THE editor of the Wilmington Journal must be
most incorrgible joker. Good people, what do you
reckon he wants now? Why, he wants all the dele
gates recently elected to Convention to meet at
Goldsboro,' at their own expense as "advso-
ry body" The Notes of Goldsboro has already call
ed Southern Rights mass meeting at that place on
the 22nd and 23d of this month. In order get off
good joke the Journal proposes that the delegates
elect at that time and place anG to add to the
cream of the joke he wants things settled" Things
have been settled by the people, but not to the sat-
isfaction of disunonists, and therefore they want
another trial.
We trust no Union man will fall into the trap
thus laid for him. The meeting at Goldsboro is to
be djsunion meeting That is well understood
The object is to get few Union men there, run
over them, make them ridiculous, and them tell
them to go home and report proceedings. We guess
they have reckoned without their host The voice
of about $4,000 votes is more potent than that of
100 delegates The Union majority in North Caro-
lima is at least 100000 ard those who will not be-
ieve that voice, would not believe, though one rose
from the grave of disunion to preach Union SER

WASHINGTON, March 15.-Mr. Mason introduced
resolution calling on the President to inform the
Senate what number of troops there are in Wash
ington, and the respective arms of the service to
which they belong; and also the reasons why they
were brought there, and how long they are to
remain; and if they to be continued, for what
purpose; and whether they are to be increased. 1t
was laid over.
Mr.. Douglas moved to take up his resolution. He
believed that the President did not mediate war,
for if he did there provision for such move
ment He said that the government had no right to
collect the revenue off Charleston harbor and could
only do so at the Custom House. If Mr. Lincoln
should attempt to collect the duties shpboard he
would make himself liable to impeachment He
could not put a collector in the Southern ports,
without first conquering them. To do so would
require $4,000 men, besides 10000 to protect
Washington at an annual expense of three hundred
and sixteen millions of dollars
Mr.. Douglas introduced his three propositions
before rejected, and advocated the first as the only
means of keeping the border States in the Union
Mr.. Wilson responded charging Mr.. Douglas
with desiring to dictate to the administration the
course to be pursued. He was very personal in
his remarks.
Mr.. Douglas was frequently interrupted, in
similar manner by Fessenden, Holt and others
His remarks were very unpaatable to the ultras.
No other business was done and the Senate ad-
iourned

MORE ENGLISH KFLUENcE-We observe that Mr.
W. NJ. Browne, late Editor of the Washington Con-
stituton has been appointed assistant Secretary of
State of the Confederate States. Mr.. Browne is a
learned and accomplished Englishman who has
been naturalized but year or two. He attended
the Charleston Convention and did all he could,
both there and at Baltimore, to disrupt and destroy
the Democratic party. He at length turned on Mr..
Buchanan, when he was compelled to leave his post
at Washington, his paper going down at once for
want of patronage He has received his reward
from Cobb and Davis, whom he has served so faith
fully. What he came to this country for, and what
secret influence controlling him, may never be
known The British government, which fought for
long years to prevent the establishment of the
present Union, and which again fought and diplo-
matized in 1912 to break up that Union, and which,
during both wars, stimulated the Indians to scalp
our women and children the frontiers, would not
scruple now to use any means to divide, degrade,
and weaken, and thus control the States of North
America. Beware of English influenced

that there exists pretty strong party in South
Carolina opposed to ratifying the Montgomery con-

sist it at every point
The announcement in Charleston on Tuesday last
that Fort Sumter to be evacuated, produced the
most intense excitement Work was for time
suspended Then came intelligence that this report
was intended as mere ruse on part of the republic
cans, and that attempts would be made to secretly
throw reinforcements into Fort Sumter. Then
again was heard the busy hum of preparation to
prevent the attempt They Immediately doubled
the harbor force and the strctest watch was at

Important Statements of the President.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-A member of the vir-
gnia Convention called upon President Lincoln this
morning and had an exceedingly satisfactory inter-
view. The President assured him that no vessels
had been sent South with hostile intentions. The
vessels that had been despatched contained only
provisions and supplies for troops in Texas and also
for the Home Squadron He stated, further, that
there would be nothing done in regard to affairs in
in the South for sixty days. and that it his pur-
pose to restore peace and prevent the shedding Of
blood.
The Virginia left fully impressed that President
Lincoln was peace man. and would not allow himself
to be drawn into adopting war policy to please a
few radical republicans.

The RESULT IN NORTH CARoLINA.-At length We
have the official result of the recent election in North
Carolina. 1t is more suspicious than the most
sanguine friends of the Union had hoped. The ma
iorty against Convention" is about twelve. hun
dred; none, therefore, will be held and this may
be said to settle for some months to the ques-
ton of secession in that State. Judging from the
tone of leading journals, the Union sentiment so
largely preponderates in North Carolina that nothing
is needed on the part of the North to keep her
fast to the stars and stripes but the exercise of that
magnanimity and justice to which North Carolnans
are entitled, and which they have fairly earned by
the manly and successful fight they have made
against all the odds and obstacles that have been
arrayed against them. 1t has been the fight and
the victory of the people against all sorts of dem
