North Carolina recently visited Camp Carolina, near
Norfolk and in bis intercourse with the volunteers
heard on several occasions utter sentiments hostile

subject OF general remark in the camp, he was admon-

his innocence of the gross offence with which be il

The LEGISLATURE.

TIE Legislature of this State convened al
Madison yesterday; the Gov. message will ap.
pear in our paper lext week The present
session of the Legislature, will be an impor,
tant one, yet it is the general desire of the peo-
pie that it should be as short one, as may be
consistent with the proper transaction of bust
ness. All the branches of Legislative power
are now Republican, and the Responsibility Of
what is DONE will mainly rest on the Republi.
can party. The Republicans since they have
been in power in the Legislative and executive
branches, have inaugurated an economical gov.
eminent, and the people have right to expect
a continuance of low taxes, Tor all the ordinary
expenses
Among the most important matters of bust
ness in the early part of the session, will be the
election ola United States Senator. By the
statute this election is fixed on the third Mon
day in January, which this year will be the
2lst inst. The most prominent candidates fol-
the post, are Hon. G. G.. Washburne, Gov.
Randall and Judge Howe. The friends OF
each ofthese candidates appear sanguine of
success, and much earnestness. if not feeling
has been enlisted. There is no necessity fol
an excess of feeling on the question of the Sen
atorship-all the candidates named, are quail
fed for the post and either would doubtless
