The PANIC HIGH PRIcEs-We see by the New
bern Progress, the Wilmington and other papers,
that there are certain men in almost every part of
the State, who endeavoring, with a view of
speculation, to get up panic in regard to provis-
ions The papers are all severe in their denuncia-
tions of men, who, are so sordid and graspng in
their dispositions that for the sake of few dollars
they would speculate on the present unfortunate
condition of things. Some men who seemed very
anxious to bring about the present state of affairs
now appear to have no stomach for the light, but
very busy in riding over the country with the
view of speculatng. We have heard of men so
mean that they would steal acrons from old blind
SOW, as she rooted them up from under the snow ;
but such men are gentlemen, in comparison to the
characters above alluded to. We say to the farmers
throughout the country be careful and do not suffer
yourselves to be imposed on. The State will pay a
fair price for whatever is needed, though all contri-
buttons will be gladly received, and we doubt not
that the people of North Carolina will prove that
they are liberal, as we'll as patriotic and brave
Should any case of speculation come to our knowl-
edge, we will hold him up to the scorn Of an indig-
nant community.-GreensbGrO Patriot.

Nor RIGHT YET.-We did hope from the number
of lOre teasts held about Raleigh since the Procama
ton of Lincoln calling for troops to subjugate the
South, that should hear no more of party or
personal abuse among the leaders in that quarter
but in this we have been disappointed. "Holden
and Badger" and perhaps few others, are still to
be denounced. Hon. Geo. E. Badger, who has, so
we learn, two or three sons in the service of the
South and who expresses willingness to shoulder
musket himself if necessary is held up to the peo-
pie of the State unsound! How extremely ridicu-
loGs. We have always been democrat and Mr..
Badger we have always known as leader Of the
whg party but we have as much confidence in his
patriotism and loyalty to the South as we have in
that of any man in North Carolina; and we honest
ly think that if the patriotism of any man is to be
doubted it is the who attempts to create bitter
ness and to produce party dissensions at this time
Badger and Holden are as safe and Will be found as
patriotic in the present crisis as any other men in
North Carolina and we do hope this petty, despica-
BILE war on them will cease.-Nerbern Progress

CHANCES OF BEING KILLED IN WAR.-Marshal
SAKE, high authority in such things, was in the
habit of saying that to kill a man in battle, the
mans weight in lead must be expended. A French
medical and surgical gazette, published at Lyons,
says this fact verified at Soferino, in the
recent great improvements in fire arms. The Aus
trians fired s. 400 900 runds The loss of the French
and Italians was 1000 killed and 10000 wounded.
Each man hit cost 700 rounds, and every man killed
cost 4, 200 rounds. The mean weight Of ball is one
ounce, thus we find that it required on an average,
272 pounds of lead to kill man. fany one of our
friends should get into military fight, they should
feel great comfort in the fact that 700 shots may be
fired at them, before they are hit and 200 before
they "shuffle off the mortal coil."-Lou. Courier.
