SPIRIT OF II AGE

and the patriotism thus displayed has been
the admiration of the world, but nothing
like that which is now Transporting in the
Southern States was ever witnessed before,
Mothers urge their sons to enlist in the vol
unteer companies, sisters encourage their
brothers to enter the service, and wives press
their husbands to go forth to the battlefield.
In the Isle Of Wight Rife Greys, commanded
by Capt. Watkins, which arrived here on
Monday, a widow lady has six sons, and
a seventh belongs to a volunteer company
at Portsmouth. The mother accompanied
her six boys to the Windsor Depot, when
they left home, and bid them God speed in
defending their country The Lady alluded
to is Mrs, Mary Roberts. In the same com
pany, Mr.. NorHeet Pierce and his Lady
have four sons. Their mother rejoiced to SCI
them enter the service. Another widow
Lady, Mrs. Eley, has two sons, both Officers
in the company, and the Captain has o sol
and son -in-law with him. We predict tina
this company will be heard from when tn
conflict comes.
1t has been said that women always TAX
the right side Of every question. IL 50, thi
must be a righteous war on the side Of tn
South, for every woman's heart is in it, an
many would gladly exchange their sex 70
the privilege of fighting old Abe's hire
minions.

a Few Plain Words.

Unless our. receipts are increased speedily,
we shall have to suspend the publication of
the Spirit of the Age for the prese6t-or at
least Until tin1es get SO that we can get
enough money to pay the cost of publishing
it. We are dependent upon our weekly re-
ceipts to meet u current expenses, and if
these fail US, we are aground at once.
Our receipts have not met our expenses
for a month past, and we are driven to the
dire necessity eff appealing to our friends to
come to our rescue. Almost any one win give
a dollar for a paper containing as much news
matter weekly as we furnish-for every body
wants to read the news now. We do earn
estly request every one that reads this, to
get us up some subscribers and save us from
being compelled to stop. We assure them
it is a life and death business with rs.

President Jefferson Davis Message, Of
which we gave the telegraphic synopsis last
week, has come to hand. 1t is very long.
embracing a statement of his views Of the
nature of the late Union; the gradual en-
c~roachment of the North, as it grew power
ful, on the rights Of the South the i~ntolera-
bic interference with its domestic institutions;
the efforts made by the seeded States to be
allowed to GO in peace the duplicity Of the
Lincoln administration and consequent cap
ture Of Fort Sumter; the declaration of war
by Lincoln, and the steps taken by him to
meet it. Hesays:
There are now in the field at Charleston,
Pensacola, Fort Morgan, Jackson, St. Philip.
and Pulaski, nineteen thousand men, and
sixteen thousand are now en- route for Viz
ginia. 1t is proposed to organize and hold
in readiness for instant-action, in view Of the
present exigencies Of the country, an army
of one hundred thousand men. If further
force should be needed the wisdom and ma.
trlotlsm of Congress will be confidently an

far IN excess of our wants."

The News.

We have given in our columns to-day all
the news we have been able to gather, as re-.
CARDS the movements in our own State and
those in the northern and southern Confede-
racies. But very little information is to be
obtained, as to what is to be the policy of
either of the hostile forces. A wise prudence.
no doubt has suggested this ominous silence.
and secrecy, on both sides. So far as the
South is concerned, we are satisfied there has.
been toe much publishing Of every proposed
movement, plan and arrangement too much
information given our enemies through the.
newspapers as to the number of troops in
our forts, in camp, and the quantity of arms,
and all these things. We have grown wiser

learn from the Raleigh Register, that by tn
skill of Professor Emmons in making the com

Charles Kuester in using it for the requisite
purpose, we shall. have as much of thai arti.
Gle SO essential in war, percussion caps, as we

Prof. Emmons has also suggested Che mode
of manufacturing any quantity of the right

Temperance in War.

In visiting the various Camps where our
North Carolina troops are stationed, VS. re-
cognize many with whom we nave long been
battling in a stern crusade against old Alco-
bol and who now stand forth IN their man
illness to fight the battles of their country.
The true Temperance Soldier is himself a
host. With frame robust and healthy, his
mind calm, his passions subdued-"h he that
ruleth his ogn spirit, is mightier than he
men, free from the Alcoholic curse, upon the
altar of its country. But they will meet
with many a severe struggle. Temptations
will surround them. Wicked men viii en-
tice them. They wiz be allured to drink
when on fatigue duty; when in social gath
erings; when shouting for victory. We
hope they will stand firm to their tenn
perance colors. Remember, ye Sons of Tenn
persnce, We captains of the Cold Water army,
the eyes of thousands are upon you. The
prayers Of thousands go up fer you. Let
it be said Of every man Of you, when the
war is over, There goes one, who in all
that terrible conflict, never violated his
pledge never brought disgrace upon his
profession" Health and courage, frmness
and skill, peace of mind, and support in the
hour of anguish, are all involved in this
issue.
A young soldier in the last war, a favorite
of his COMPANY. was known tn have stolen
away from camp to meet a drinking club
He bribed the soldier on guard by promising
to bring him some spirits when he should
return. Time passed swiftly away, and when
he came back, the guard was relieved, and
be was taken and carried before the com
handing officer, with the bottle of spirits in
his pocket. The officer seized him by both
ears, and most violently shaking him for
,reaking orders, being out late, and bringing
irits into the camp, he ordered him to be
sifned till n,Qrning in the g~uard-house.-
to the quick and unable to bear dis
H. he seized a sword, and rushing into
s2ce Of. the officer, thrust it into bis
side, king hfl-on
horrid deed, he was hung in the presence
his companions. Such was one out of tt
ten thousand results of rum. If the salv
tion of thousands of our young men, VT
are called into their country's service fro
such an end, is at all the fruit of our labo
we shall thank God and take courage.
