OFFICERS AND OFFIcE-H HOLDERS. Now that we are
about organizing new and permanent Government,
we would like to indulge in some plain talk about
Offices and office holders, but as it might and no
doubt would offend some of those who want to hold
the Offices, and would get no thanks from those
we design to benefit Gor experience has satisfied US
that scheming demagogue can easily get up hue
and cry among the people against those who oppose
him we will merely remark at this time that as few
Offices possible ought to be created, and the best
in the country ought to be selected to fill them
business men, men who do not want them solely
for the purpose of procuring livelihood, men who
will do right without regard to the chances of re-
election. We must have an economical Govern
men and in order to have such one, let us select
good straightforward business men to assist in ad
ministering it, whether they be lawyers, farmers,
doctors, mechanics or merchants. Let the trading,
scheming politicians lie low for while at least
Let US try some new men, and don't let US impose
all the honors on one man. We are striking at no

RIGHT V1Ews.-We sincerely admire the candor
and honesty of the following sentiments of the Will
mington Journal and most heartily subscribe to
them. Fa parties in the State in official or unof-
fetal positions, will show by their acts that they are
governed solely by such principles, North Carolina
will not only be unit in prosecuting the war, but
one in heart and feeling and purpose to die together
in the last ditch in her defence: -
!s"We beg respectfully to urge upon the powers
that be at Raleigh-upon the Advisory board, upon
any body and every body who may have anything
to do with appointments connected with the military
service of the State, to exercise the utmost carsto
yield to no pressure-tol look forward to no political
or personal or clique advantages in We bestowa of
offices. We neither know ner care what the, ,inau-
ences at work may be, 50 they be rightly used, and
they must be used with the highest discretion and
dsinterestedness, or the consequences will be- II not
DISASTROUS certainly discouraging and injurious"
