The WIFE OF THE soLDIER A visit to
the public Offices, yesterday morning, enabled
us to see one Of the most interesting spectaclts
Of the present time-a large crowd Of respec-
table. looking, and neatly dressed females
not a few Of them with "cbilJrsn in arms"
They had called to draw their monthly allow
ancs in the absence Of their husbands, who
have been mustered into the service. We
understand that the num5er OF married men
already enrolled and mustered from this
county, exceeds four hundred and twenty-five.
1t will be a satisfaction 10 the absent soldier,
placing himself as a rampant between the
perfdious foe and his country, to know that
those at home are provided for, and will want
no comfort in his absence, but are, as it were
the children OF the State, looking up to their
great mother for the protection and support
they naturally expect as her children. Should
apprehension arise that be may never return,
the soldiers wife will have the consciousness
of knowing that he fell in a glorious cause,
his name inscribed with those Of the worlds
heroes and indell.bly craven upon the heart
Of his country.

that paper, which has charged us with hostility to
the West, to put its finger upon any word or any
act of ours which sayors to the slightest extent of
opposition to Western interests.
We deprecate the necessity which seems to exist,
for replying even to sectional illusions. The State
is now happily ofone accord in all its material and
mental interests. The same system of internal i'm
provements, and the same system Of common schools
and the same uniform mode of taxation, now
common to the whole State. Not jar is heard in
the beautiful and well-arranged machinery by which
one common government embracing so many inter-
ests from the seashore to the Tennessee and Georgia
lines, and from Virginia to South Carolina is moved
and directed. Let not the ambitions of or about
men, contests for office, be permitted to disturb
this harmony. SectiOnaliSm was the bane of the
old Republic and it has Scared ard deformed, and
dwarfed North Carolina for more than half GEN.
