=" The NoRTH CAROLINA UNION CONVENTION. -
Some time since there appeared in the New
York Tribune, resolutions purporting to be
passed by a convention of Unionists at Hat
teras Inlet, which convention, it was iutimat-
ed, largely represented the feelings of the popu-
lation in that State, it being attended by dele
gates from forty-five counties. The New York
Sun Ia Union paper) OF Tuesday last, how
ever, pronouuces the whole affair to be farce.
This it does on the authority of a private let
ter received in New York, dated Camp Wool,
Hatteras Inlet, Nov. 80, which says:
" As for the Union government in North
Carolina, fear it is nothing but big farce.
The resolutions which you no doubt have read
in the papers, began with something like this:
We, the people Of North Carolina, &C., &c. ;
Now, the fact is, the whole Of the said people
amounted in all to about 100 Hatteras fishers
aud voters, the rest being boys, women and
children. This grand convention, representing
North Carolina, free and independent was
addressed by a Tribune reporter, 1.-THE only one
here, believe, Mr.. Foster, now an Hon. VI.
c., and Gov. Taylor. Well, the resolutions
were read by the Governor, and the question
of their adoption being put, no one could, at
first, be found to second it. Afterwards, the
form Of a man said, want to do what is
right; don't know what it means, but will
second it, When the vote was put the dele
gates looked one at the other, not knowing
what to do but after the resolutions were
read over again, some one managed to gain
courage enough to vote, and all followed suit.
So, the provisional government was estab-
lished. If this is not big thing | don't
know what is. On the 2Sth Mr.. Foster was
elected to the United States Congress for this
district
