NORrH CAROLINA.

a sharp controversy is in progress in North
Carolina as to the policy Of the convention OF
that State resumiBg its sittings. A bill bad
passed The House Of Commons to dissolve the
convention, and, at last accounts, was pending
in The Senate, where It wss fercely resisted, a
portion Of The press taking the ground that the
action Of the Commons was likely to be misin-
tsrpreted as a Tebuks Of the convention FOR
Withdrawing the State from the Union. This
is the view that has been taken Of The contFo-
versy in the North, and a large amount Of re-
ioicing has been manifested by the press of
that section, and they have been fast to repre-
sent the controversy as a reaction in favor Of
the Union.
There is, however, no foun iation for any
such conclusion. Party strife, for The purpose
Of securing the Dext representation in the Con-
fsderste Congress, is at the bottom Of the
matter, and, although its existence is to be re-
GREETED, it cannot possibly initiate against the
cause in which the old North State go unani-
mously engaged. Her people and politicians
are a unit on Ell questions urged between the
North ard South.
