JOB PRINTER WANTED.
IETANrED AT THIS OFFICE sOoD Job Printer,
Newbern, N. c.

We learn that on Friday the women and children
abandoned Newbern. as it was the opinion of mill
tary men that the city had ceased to he place OF
safety since the capture of Hatterss. Quite num-
Der Of prizes were at Newbern, captured by our
privateers during the last few weeks which the
Ysnkees would naturally desire to reeapture, and
the way is open to them.
These facts are derived from the wife of Mr..
J., Of this city, who, With her children, have
arrived in Richmond-this being the second third
time this family have been compelled to abandon
their homes. She says one of the wounded sol
diers who escaped from Hatteras after its surren-
der left Newbern when she did, and reports that it
was not for want of ammunition that the garrison
surrendered, but for want Of guns of long range.
The emmy lay off two miles, and fired rfed cannon
at our men, which did considerable execution while
not one of our projectiles reached them.
This lady reports that the men of Newbern had
resolved to remain and defend the city TO the last
extremity, and that proving unAvailing, they toiR
burn the prizes, the cotton, the trpentine, and then their
oUR dOeAingsI In the language of Gov. Pickens,
eff the Yankees should conquer the city, they will
find it not worth conquering." Certainly they will
find no aid or comfort there.-Richnend Wing.

The CONCERT TONIGHT.-We see from the Pro
gramme for to nights Concert, that the conductor
has done away with two very serious faults, which
have heretofore interfered most essentially with
the enjoyment Of our concerts They are, too great
length of performance and toe many, what are
commonly called, highfsluung pieces. We could
never understand why it is that performers pay SO
little attention to the wishes of audiences as TO
give US pieces which, while merely exhibiting the
proficiency and fneness of the executonist, appeal
neither to feeling nor understanding. When will
performers cease to bore as with confused mass
Of sound? when cease to present programmes, which
while ostensibly fatterng taste with their high
sounding titles and Names would be laughed at and
Kissed down in Europe?
Why perform music to a people who do
not even profess to quick artistic understand
ing which insipid at best, becomes only tolerable
in its operate connection? We repeat we are glad
that for once respect has been paid to US, ard,
though we could always demand it as a right, we
sincerely thank the efficient management for it.

We take the following from the Fort Smith Times
of the 9th Of August:
We take pleasure in announcing to the public
that the Cherokees have, in National Convention
of all the people, decided to unite with the South
We learn from Mr.. Picken BeDge, who was on the
ground that all was peace and quiet, and that were
present between four and five thousand people, and
when the question was put to the assembly. there
was a unanimous vote in favor Of uniting with the
people of the South.
The Executive Council were in session when Mr..
Benge LETT, and were making arrangements to enter
into a treaty with Gen Pike, Confederate commits
siOner They have placed the matter before their
SCENT Mr.. Crawford. The Cherokees have, also,
determined to raise a regiment of mounted men to
cooperate with our troops in defending the country
from the sggressioDs Of the aboltionists.
As son SIS Gen. Pike returns from the Wichita
mountains, he will be called upon to treat with the
Cherokees. General Pike is one of the most liber-
al men IN Indian affairs We have ever known, and
If the Indians cannot be satisfied with his PROPOSE
tons, they cannot be pleased at all.

Who Has CONFIDENCE IN THE ADMINISTRATION
The Administration at Washington seems to inspire
very few Of its political friends with a generous
confidence in its ability, Judgment or honesty.
8The Republican presses dictate the military pol
icy and movements, as if neither the Commander
in-Chief, the Lieutenant General or any body else
at Washington understood anything about then
business and especially about war.
Petitions are in circulation among the people, re-
ceiving thousands of signatures, requesting the
President 20 remove Cameron aud Welles from the
Cablnet-the one for his alleged want of honesty
and the other for his imbecilIty.
Now we have Bankers sending a committee to
Washington to dictate to the President certain line
of policy as a condition precedent to their taking
any more of the public loan.
Then there are the AbOlitionists VITO are de-
handing that the President issue a proclamation
prOclsimiHg the freedom of the slaves and telling
him shat success cannot attend our arms until thal
is done.
We shall be compelled, to inquire, who has con-
fdence in the Administration or its head, if such
decided expressions Of dissent from its policy its
members shall continue to be manifested?- Caci5l-
natl Enquirer.

ANOTHER STAMPEDE. We learn from various
sources that enc day last week, portion Of Capt
Robt. Swans company OF Union men were sttemp-
ing to make their way to Kentucky, they were in
tercepted on the mountain, by detachment Of the
State cavalry and ordered to surrender. Refusing
to comply with the demand. the officer in command
ordered q charge, when five or six of the Union
men were killed, about forty taken prisoners and
the balance made their escape. About fifteen or
twenty Of the company Of Union men have returned
to their homes on the mountain, among when IS =
brother of Capt. Swan, who say they intend here
after stay at home and attend to their BUSH
ness and abide the the decision of the Ia WfUly
shtuted authorities. A wise conclusion, truly.
The detachments of State cavalry that are scout
ing North and East of here doing immense good
in dispensing and driving back the armed bands of
Lincolnites who have been setting at defiance the
laws of the State and the Southern COnfederacy.
We incline to the belief that by the 4th Of SePtem
ber the end of the forty days designated in PresS
dents Davis Proclamation, as also by the procla-
nation of Gen. ZollicOfer, the Union sentiment in
East Tennessee will have grown ''smal by degrees
and beautifully less.'-Spqrt1 C0RstitdiolGlist, AU-
