state of feeling there when he left on Friday last

that there is strong popular prejudice against the
Montgomery commissioners for not presenting an
ultimatum to Abe Lincoln, and limiting the time for
an answer. The apprehension is that the povern-
ment at Washington is only procrastinating in order
to ''set the foot down firmly" when the time for
action comes. Gen. Beauregard is compelled ever

Pursuant to previous notice, large and enthusi-
astic meeting of the friends of the Union assembled

On motion of B. A. Kittrell. ESQ.,, the meeting

Chair, and appointing j. C. Hedgecock and Lewis
Hanes, Secretaries.
Mr. Kittrell explained the object of the meeting
to be the appointment of Delegates to represent the
County of Davidson in the District Convention of
the Union men to be held at Winston on Tuesday,
the 9th day of April, Gnst to nominate a candi-
date to represent the Sixth Congressional District

cuded by offering the following resolutions. which
were unanimously adopted
ResolUed, That we deem all other political ques-
tons merged in the all-absorbng one of PEACE and
the UNION and that the time has come for all differ
ence between Union men of all parties to end the
peris of the country demand their united efforts for
the common good.
ResOtUed, That Notwithstanding the attempted
separation of some of the sister States from the
Union, the true source Of all our greatness as ma
tion-we not without hope that all National

Resolred, That we sincerely regret to see mani

satisfaction at the clearly expressed will of the
jority of the people, and that cannot but view
such demonstrations at this time on the part of rest
less agitating spirits, as tending to civil strife
ResOlUed, That we deny that any State has the
right to dissolve its connection with the Union for
any cause short of that which would Justify revou
ton; and that revolution is only justifable when
oppression on the part of the national government
has dissolved the compact implied between it and
the people; and in no is it justifable until all
Constitutional remedies have been exhausted in
Guiding the holding of national convention.
ResOlred, That we proud of our able and faith
full representative, the Hon. James NJ Leach, whose
national patriotic in the last Congress meets
with our full appreciation, and knowing him to be

COURTESY IN THE BRITISH PARLIANENT.-A few

prosecutions in Spain, Sir Robert Peel made some
remarks which were regarded by member as per-

This prompt acknowledgment of error, made pro-

becoming-as anybody will admt-than a repeti-
ton of the offensive language, perhaps in form still
more provoking, followed by an affair of honor"

On Sunday morning last, Mr.. A. B. Patterson, of
Baltimore, a bearer of dispatches from the United
States commercial agent in St. Domingo, reached
Washington, and was closeted with the Secretary of
State for hours or twice during that day. The
information brought by that gentleman concerning
American interests in ST. Domingo has doubtless
generated the haste to get Commodore Stringham's
squadron ready for sea.
We may add, that the withdrawal of troops from
this point which has commenced-there being no
longer necessity for keeping any considerable
number here-is being twisted by the Dsunion let
writers and teegraphers into designs the part
of the Government to invade the South, of course.
These gentlemen are hard to please indeed. Up to
week ago they were grooming piteously over the
presence Of these troops here-denouncing it as
act of military despotism, of menace to Virginia, &C. !;
and now that they being sent elsewhere, they
are swearing roundly that they to be stationed
there, only to be in better position to assai the
South than if kept at the Federal metropolis! This
is funny world we live in and about the most in
comprehensbly funny fellows in it. are those whose
vocation it is to get up, in Washington cock-andbull
stories for the benefit of the Disunion cause

KITTRELLS SPRINGS-We have read with some in
terest a communication in the Goldsborough Rough
Notes from a visitor to this now celebrated water
ing place. Unlike most of the watering places,
which close up at the approach of King Frost, in
Autumn, and open no more until the flowers are
sweetly blooming in Spring, this house has been
of nvalids has received the benefits of its healing
waters. The cure of Scrofula and all kindred dis
eases which have been effected by the water, have
been astonishing indeed. MesSrs. Blacknall & Co.,
the enterprsing Proprietors have been busly enga-
ged, during the whole winter and will be until the
opening of the season, in making improvements to
their place number of rooms have been
added, the cabins improved and they will be able to
comfortably accommodate six or seven hundred
boaders. The number of arrivals last season. was
more than 1000.
Kittrelrs Springs is soon to become the great
watering place of the South. Its success thus far
has been astonishing. The present political excite
ment in the country will keep many Southerners
away from the Northern places the coming season,
and the Proprietors of Southern resorts will have to
prepare for a larger number than usual.
Those who have visited kittrelrs and been annoy
ed with the lack of accommodation at the old De-
pot when waiting for the cars, will be glad to know
that the Raleigh & CASTOR Railroad Company are
just now completing new Depot at the residence
of Maj Collins, only few hundred yards from the
Spring. This will be great improvement.
We expect to see this part Of Virginia strongly
represented at Kittres about next July, whether
the Convention at Richmond shall decide to put US
out of the Union or to keep US in it.-Sutolk Sun.

GENERAL JACKSON ON CoERcIoN-d Voice of q
Pdtriot.-General Jackson, in his farewell address
to the American people in March, 1927, thus alluded
to coercion. He said:-
of one section of the country are arrayed in arms
against those of another in doubtful conflict let the
battle result it may, there will be an end of the
Union and with it end to the hopes of freemen.
The victory of the victors would not secure to them
the blessings of liberty. 1t would avenge their
wrongs but they would themselves share in the com.
mon ruin" ~
These words of the venerable patriot ought to be
inscribed in letters Of gold and everywhere distrib-
uted. A civil war is the end of the Union.

THE ABOLITION AGITAToRs. -- The
Buffalo Courier says "that it has the au-
thority of Thurlow Weed for the asscr-
ton that Mr.. Lincoln expresses the most
intense regret that he did not urge the
adoption of the Crittenden Compromise
resolutions by his friends in Congress.
If this be so, and the authority seems un-
questionable, it is only another evidence
that Mr.. Lincoln sees that the policy of
the ultra supporters of his party has been
most unfortunate and disastrous. The
more moderate Republicans, among them
Senator Dixon of Conn, were ready to
accept this Compromise, but the Aboli-
ton wing secuted it down. Mr.. Lincoln
gives proof of honest intentions by thus
acknowledging his mistake, and it also af-
fords additional evidence that the Aboli-
ton agitators have been among the chief
instigators of our difficulties, for it was
these men that prevented the adoption Of
that Compromise.

Dictator Fremont


When we reflect for moment that the
immense body-guard of Fremont in Mis-
souri, was an organization of his own crea-
ton, and that it was composed of a dar-
ing and reckless set of California advcn-
turers, upon whom Fremont squandered
millions in the way of contracts, we can
readily appreciate the guards indigna-
ton at the reception of the news of their
chiefs dismissal. These fellows were
bound to Fremont, because they received
through him opportunities to plunder.-
They were no better than banditti, and
their Indignation now is but the spleen of
bafied burglars. That these desperate
men should talk of proclaiming their dis
carded General dictator of the West
is not at all surprising; but we apprchend
that the threat will not be considered at
all alarming. The army of the West are
not the creatures of Fremont; they owe
him nothing; but his body-guard is his,
exclusively, appointed by him without
consulting the government. These dis
appointed adventures and the abolition
politicians of the country, are the only
ones at all distressed at Fremont's re-
moval. lie never was fitted for so I'M
portant command-he never gave the
slightest evidence of being able for it, and
the Administration made a laundering
experiment when it appointed him. In
stead of demonstrating military ability
since he took command, he has shown
none at all, and yet the abolition politi-
clans are lamenting his removal thous-
and times more than they did over the
retirement of the old veteran Scott. To
suppose that the people of the West are
SO blinded by this man as to harbor the
remotest idea of joining him in crusade
against their government is, in our judg-
ment, simply preposterous. There are
none so reckless as that, except few fill
busters who are always on hand to en-
gage in any desperate and lawless under
taking. We conclude, therefore, that
the Gazette and the Dispatch, of this
city, will not have to regret the up
rising of the Western people to follow
Fremont in any enterprise he may un-
dertake against the legitimate authorities
of the Union Post.
