ng-A correspondent of the Wilmington Herald,
in letter dated Florence, S. G., says:
We have received intelligence from Wades-
boro N. c., that a negro had been arrested who
confessed that attack upon the whites is to be
made so the troops shall leave the country.
A negro belonging to Gen. Cash, near Cheraw, S.
c., has also been arrested, and has confessed the
plot"
We doubt the correctness of the above.

pa The Wilmington Herald, paper heretofore
opposed to secession, says, in view of the present
state of affairs
We will speak for North Carolina, and say,
that though she discountenanced the course of
South Carolina calculated produce the present
state of things, she will pave her soil with human
bones, and drench it in blood before she will see
her sister State dshonored or forced into SUBJ
lection by common enemy"

A CENTRAL CoNFEDERACY.-IfN North Carolina
is forced to break her connection with the North
ern States, (Which she will certainly do sooner OF
later unless the rights of the South are acknowed
ged, respected and guarantied) the question is
being discussed as to whether she should unite
with the States south of her and form Southern
Confederacy, or unite in what is to be called a
Central Confederacy, composed of Virginia, KY,
Maryland, Tenn, Missouri, Pennsylvania, \. York,
New Jersey, Indiana Illinois, and probably all the
Western States. The Hon. John p Kennedy of
Maryland, has written pamphlet advocating such
union after the North refuses to accede to certain
demands of the border slave States. He proposes
that Maryland, Va, Tenn, KY, Missouri and n.
Carolina hold Convention and demand satisfac-
tory settlement of existing difficulties and guaran-
ties against future aggressons If satisfaction
not be obtained in this way, and the other south
ern States DO await the result of such PROPOSE
tons then the border slave States to form union
with PENN Illinois, &c.
We notice that this scheme is advocated by sew
eral papers and some prominent gentlemen in this
State. We have not the slightest objection to the
proposed convention of border slave States, but we
do object uniting with any free State if the pre-
sent Union is destroyed. Pennsylvania, Indiana,
Illinois, New Jersey and New York contain about
as many abolition fanatics as Massachusetts, Yer
mont, Connecticut, and others. If we were to form
a new union with them it would not be long before
we should find out that we had snapped witch
for the devil, and our position would be worse than
ever. The direct trade heretofore carried on be-
tween the South and some of the New England
States has restrained the people of tae latter to
some little degree, but there would be 10 such
straning influences operating between North Ca
rolina and some other border States and the West
States. If we cannot get rights in the
present Union and preserve 1t, we go for Union
of all the slaveholding States, but union with
free-soil as part of the fabric If we are to have
new Government, let it be composed of harmonic
ing elements-let US have Southern Confederacy,
and let it be made strong enough to insure it
against disruption in the future, matter who
kicks up fuss. Though we have had hopes of
preserving the present Union, yet we are for the
South and for maintaining the rights Of the South.

THEY WOULD BE PATRIOTS, CERTAIN.--If
Lincoln and Hamlin were to act in accordance with
the advice of the people of Chatham county, they
would be considered patriots indeed, and nearly
all the boy children would probably bear part of
their names for the next generation. The follow
ing resolution was passed by meeting in Chatham:
"Resolved, That the resignation by Abraham
Lincoln and Hannibal Hamlin, of the offices to
which they have been respectively elected, would
be worthy and patriotic sacrifice on their parts,
of sectionalism, upon the altar of our common
country"
We hope our Chatham friends have sent copy
of this resolution to old Abe, and that he will not
laugh at it but take it into Serious calm and digni
fed consideration.

SELF-PRoTEcTIoN.-Wea are for peace as long
as possible-we have advocated the settlement Of
difficulties without resort to extreme measures but
we believe in the policy of preparing for war in
time of peace, especially when war is threatened
And if it is ascertained beyond doubt that the
administration of Mr. Buchanan or Mr. Lincoln in
tend to use force against the South, We think, as
a means of selfprotection, the military of North
Carolina should take possession of the Forts at
the mouth of Cape Fear River and at Beaufort
harbor, and the T. S. Arsenal at Fayetteville where
a large amount of arms and ammunition are de-
posted. If coercive measures against the South
are to be resorted to- the Forts should be held by
our own people as means of self protection, sub
ject to negotiations or final settlement with the
General Government. While conservative men are
for settling difficulties peaceably if possible, we
do not believe they would countenance the whip
ping in of South Carolina or any other State.

"THE WAR PARTY."-The Fayetteville Obser-
yer, in copying an article from the Western Demo-
crat intimates that "the party" (he secession
ists) is our democratic friends. The Observer for
gets that it has large number of wing friends in
"the war panty" Some of the most rampant Sc
cessionists that we know of were Bell men in the
late Presidential election-even some of those who
talked about trying Lincolns administration and
taking Office under him, and who called the Brock
inridge men disunionists, are now for smashing
the Union to pieces Immediately. We allude to
these things in no political sense, for we have not
written partizan article since the election, but we
merely want to remind our friends of the Observer
that while they are pinchng some of the democrats
for being disunionsts, they might as we'll include
some of their wing friends. We think the posi-
tons of the "Observer" and "Democrat" since the
election in opposing dissolution has been consistent
with their course previous to the election, but we
both have political friends who have changed their
tune, fact the Observer should not forget when
speaking of those who form the war party

Hon. JOHN A. GILMER.-A letter of Mr. Gill
mer's is published in the Greensboro Patriot He
says: {" We are in most perlous crisis but one
which the country might yet pass without serious
harm, if the honest masses every where could at
once be reached and made sensible of the great
danger that hangs over u.s." Mr. Gilmer does not
express any confident hope that the Union be
preserved, but he thinks if the people had a
chance they would very soon settle the difficulty.
He thinks divisions are caused by mere abstrac-
tions.

Hon. WARREN WINsLow, of N. c., who rep
resents the Sd or Wilmington District in Congress-
has published short address to his constituents.
He says he consented to serve the committee of
33 for the purpose of preserving the Union if pos
sble but he has found all efforts fruitless because
the Republican members of that committee refuse
to acknowledge the right of property in slaves.
The Address concludes th~s:
feel constrained to say, that I think there is
no hope in Congressional action.
Under this state of things, and especially in
consideration of the alarming and excited condition
of the country, the bankruptcy of the treasury,
the utter prostration of the credit of the Govern
ment, as evinced in the proposals to take not quite
half of loan of five millions lately authorized, at
rate of interest varying from twelve to thirty
six per cent, | have felt it my duty to announce
to you the failure of all efforts here and to declare
that, in my judgment, the remedy is in your own
prompt, honest and independent action.
