THE EXAMINER on TIE HATTERAs AFFAIR-We
lack space to-day to notice the Richmond Eram-
insr's article of Wednesday, in relation to the Hat
teras affair." The Examiner is obviously not well
informed as to the state of things in North Carolina
We expect to show that that paper has done injus-
tce to the Convention of th-Carolina, while it
has reflected on the former Union men of this State
North Carolina has at this time ten thousand Youn-
teers in Virginia, who were Union men in February
last and who did not think it the duty of the South
to dissolve the Union merely on account of Lin
coins election.
