D. K. McRae, Esq, from Newberne arrived III
Charleston few days since. We learn from the Mer
curry that large crowd OF the citizens serenaded hin
at the Charleston Hotel on the night of his arrival
In response to repeated calls he made his appearance
and pledged his State to the Confederacy lie sad il
explanation of the request of Gov Ellis for guns, thai
North Carolina had taken her forts without an Ordi
lance of Secession, and wanted guns that had beer
victorious. South Carolina might take the lead now
but North Carolina would endeavor to be up with her
and gain length ahead in fighting the battle of South
ern Independence. Mr.. McRae frequently inter
rupted by vociferous applause. The Charlestoniani
may rest assured that North Carolina is virtually out
of the Union. There remains only the ormaiy to be
gone through with, which we have every to be-
lieve will be had the Legislature be cal
led together.
