Favorable From East Tennesse,

Col. VIM. II. Carroll arrived on yes
terday from East Tennessee, where he has
been sojourning for several weeks, raising
troops under special commission for the
Confederate service. He confirms our re-
cent representations Of the great reaction
now transpiring among the people, and
designates it as perfect stampede" from
Unionism to the advocacy of the South
ern cause. Mr.. T. A. r. Nelson had
reached home, and it was understood that
he would issue an address to the people
of East Tennessee through the columns OF
the Knoxville Wing, advising them to de.
sist from further opposition to the State
authorities, and espouse the cause of the
Confederate Government.
The Hon. Geo. w. Bridgers, who has
been an intense Union man. and was q
candidate for the United States CONGRESS
IN the late election advised Col. Carroll OF
his intention to raise regiment of volun-
teers from among the Unionists of his
uioli iSt ahu eneef Ine acGiVe service or the
Confederate States.
Col. Carroll issued an address to the
people calling upon them to rally to the
support of their section against the vulgar
Gespotism of Lincoln, and informs us that
the Knoxville Wing will publish it in a
few days, approving of its spirit and coun.
selling patriotic response to it. He thinks
that he can raise at least four thousand
men among the Unionists of East Tennes.
see in less than thirty days.
We have scarcely ever known of so sud-
den and favorable a reyuision in popular
sentiment during the present revolution
as has taken place in the eastern section
of this State in the last ten days.

But who Is this seated on rustic seat on
the way! Robert runs and grasps his
hand, for it is an old family servant.
ooh, Sam, how happy am to see you!
How is my father, mother, and sister,
Sam ?" exclaimed Robert almost in ono
breath.
The large tears started in the eyes of the
old negro, and ran down his rough cheeks,
as he pointed 20 the three monuments not
far distant. There they lie" be exclaimed,
all taken away by one fever. Oh, how
they loved you, Massa Robert how sorry
Massa was that he made you 60 away"
Everything faded from Roberts vision,
mis- brain reeled and he fell senseless in the
arms Of Sam. The faithful negro laid him
tenderly on the bench aud hastened to the
river for water, but when he returned Ro-
bert was gone, and walking slowly towards
the house he muttered " Poor massa Bob!
Poor massa Bob p
Robert partially recovered his mind, and
starting to his feet ran, he knew not with
er. When he fully recovered he found
himself standing on steep bluff that
overhung the river. The dark waters lash
ing against its base seemed to sing the sad
requiem of everything dear to him on
earth.
All, all gone!" he cried, I" I only left
4 uncared for by any one on earth Oh
would that | had died on the field of Palo
Alto but here, here will end my wretch
ed life. Dark food, receive into thv liz
quld bosom one of earth's most wretched
sons"
A soft hand was laid firmly on his shoul-
der Live, Robert, live for my sake !;
there is yet one that loves you"
ELLA !"
Reader, if you ever journey down the
romantic Alabama, look on its green banks
for the Fairy Cottage" and think of Ro
bert and his beautiful young bride that
dwell happily there.

A STORY OF WANT AND, WOE
We copy the following from late number
Of the New York Daily. News:

We copy the following from late number
Of the New York Daily. News:
Among the hundreds of soldiers. wives and
others who daily apply for relief or infor-
nation at the Mayors Office, awoman yester-
day, Of unusually respectable appearance
though hagsard fro-n evident want, called in
reference to refusal on the part of the com.
mittee of her district or ward, to pay the lit
tie stipend her ticket call led for They had
for some reason-her husband regiment not
having yet left for Washington, as is under
stood was the case-tnrned the cold shoul-
der upon her and refused all relief She sta
ted her ease most earnestly Her landlord
was about to eject her for non-payment Of
two or three dollars rent of a room. She had
locked two small children in her apartments
and left them actually crying for bread
the third and sick one, some two years
age, she had borne to the residence of the
committee man, where she was denied re-
lief, and from tnencs to the M.yor's Office.
Here she pleaded in tones of eloquence which
hunger aloLe could give utterance to. With
anxious eyes steadily fixed upin her eyi-
IDENTIFY fast sinking child, and while sire was
yet speaking and inquiring what she should
do, the spirit of the child took Its fight to a
better world, literally dying from starvation
1t was painfully sad, sickening sight, and
could any man OF feeling have witnessed the
terrible agonles of that mother and the cold,
lifeless form of that child follow ed her trem-
bling steps out of the hall with a dead babe
in her arms, vending her way to other stary-
ing, perhaps dying, ones at home-surey
they would have offered up urgent and SIN
cere prayers for peace, instead Of the savage
cry for war and blood And this one of ten

SALr-During the war of 1s12,-15, salt
was sold in this town at $5, and in Raleigh
at 81, a bushel. 1t IS now selling here at
81 40 a sack of near three bushels. In
Richmond and Petersburg it sells at sc TO 81
80 sack. In Charleston at So SO to 81.
We think that these high prices will not
long continue for we see it stated from the
Abingdon (Va-) Democrat that at the Salt
Works near that place unusual activity
preyails-new furnaces have been erected
and large additional force employed Il
heacy stock Of salt is on hand ready for
shipment but at present it is impossible to
get it off the railroad being taxed TO its ut
most capacity in transporting troops to the
seat of war.
Here in North Carolina there is prospect
Of steps being taking TO manufacture salt.

slavery Tor It's corner stone, is not likely to be
accepted, as but lately seemed possible, not only
by all the slave states, but even by the border
free states nor to be proclaimed from Wash
ington as the new national law in the name of
the United States. Compromises will no longer
be offered by peace conventions, in which sia-
very is to be made national negroes declared
property all over the land, and slavery extended
over all territories now possessed or hereafter to
be acquired. Nor is the United States govern
ment yet driven from Washington.
Events are rapidly unrollng themselves, and
it will be proved, in course of time, whether
the North will remain united in its inaexible
purpose, whether the South is rs firmly united,
or whether counter revolution will be effected
in either section, which must necessarily give
the victory to its opponents. We know moth
ing of the schemes or plans of either govern
ment.
The original design Of the Republican party
was to put an end to the perpetual policy of
slavery extension, and acquisition Of territory
for that purpose and at the same time to main
tain the Constitution and the integrity of the
republic This at the South seemed an outrage
which justified civil wur for events have am
ply proved what sagacious statesmen prophesied
thirty years ago-that secession is civil war
Ifall is to end in negotiation and separation,
Notwithstanding the almost interminable dis
putes concerning frontiers, the stronghold in the
Gulf, and the unshackled navigation of the
great rivers throughout their whole length,
which it is probable, will never be abandoned
by the North, except as the result of total
defeat in the field, it is at any rate certain that
both parties will negotiate more equitably
with arms in their hands than if the IN.
armed of either section were to deal with
the armed. If it comes to permanent separa-
tion, too, it is certain that in the commonwealth
which will still glory in the name of the United
States, and whose people will doubtless re es-
tablish the old Constitution with some import
ant amendments, the word secession will be a
sound of woe not to be lightly uttered 1t will
have been proved to designate, not peaceful
and natural function of political life, but to be
only another expression for revolution, blood
shed, and all the horrors of civil war.
1t is probable that long course of years will
be run, and many inconvencies and grievances
endured, before any one of the free states Sc
cedes from the reconstructed Union.
