The Court Journal.

Mr.. Satterthwaite called attention to the fact on
Saturday. in the Convention that the report of Col
Hill, giving detailed account of the battle of Beth
ell Church, had appeared in the State Journal of
this place before it could be printed by the Con-
yention printers and laid on the desks Of members.
This report was read on Friday morning in Conven-
tion and twenty-five copies ordered to be printed
for each member.
1t turned out as the result Of the statement or
inquiry of Mr.. Satterthwaite, that none of the Off
GERS of the Convention were to blame but that the
Editors of the State Journal must hare obtained
copy of the report before the Convention had sent
the document to its printers. and that this copy
must have been obtained from the Governor or Mil
itary Board 1t seems therefore, that this pet jour-
nal, which must be known in future as the Court
Journal, has special and peculiar privileges which
are not possessed by the other journals in town, or
even by the Convention printers, who are officers of
that body. We state the facts as they exist We
feel sure that if had applied for copy of the
port it would not have been furnished to US; and
we go further and say that if we had been placed in
possession of copy as soon as it was read in Con-
vention respect for that body and for the rights
of its printers, would have prevented its appearance
in our paper of Saturday last
By the way, can any one tell who and how many
of the Breckenridge leaders signed the bonds which
Mr.. Spelman gave Mr.. Whitaker for the Journal
establishment: That paper pufs good many of
these people, and we would like to know who has
paid in this way for his puffs in advance. 1t is
stated that some of these bonds have been sold on
our streets at ten per cent discount

Our Schools,

One Of the most dreful results of the war, would
be the abandonment of our Schools. We should de-
precate such result most deeply.
We have seen intimatons of disposition to sus-
pend the Common Schools on account of the war
We protest against it in the name of the good 2eo
pie and especially of the children of the State Let
none of the schools be abandoned if possible. The
male Schools and Colleges may suffer some, per-
haps more than is proper. Let the boys complete
their education. There are enough men in the
State to give Lincoln jesse without taking the boys
from school. There is no solid reason sohatecer,
s0hy the female Schools should suffer at ALL Do
keep the girls at school by all means.
We are glad that the educators of the State are
determined to hold on. Look at our advertising
columns, and you will see that the regular exercises
of the University, Wake Forest College, St. Johns
College, Bnghams School, Lovejoys Academy,
Rock Spring Academy and Rev. DR.. Wilson's School,
will all be open for boys in due course Also, St.
Mary's School, Oxford Female College, Greensboro
Female College, Meth. Prot Female College, Edge
worth Seminary and Glen Anna Female Seminary
will all be open for girls. Send them on in due
time.

The Scotland Neck Mounted Rifles,

This splendid company of Dragons, commanded
by Capt. P. NJ. Edmondston, was mustered into the
service of the Stately Maj w. j. Clarke, at Clarks-
ville Halifax county, Friday, the 14th inst, and
left for Wilmington on the following Monday.
The company numbers about 70 fine young men,
superbly mounted. They are armed with sabres,
pistols and doublebarrel shot-guns.
This is precisely the class of troops much needed
to defend our Coast, if invaded. There is at this
time also much active service for such troops in
North-W Western Virginia and the Peninsulas on the
Chesapeake Bay, and in Princess Ann and Curri-
tuck counties. When the crop is laid by, we sup
pose company of this sort, armed with rifles or
double-tarrel guns, sabre or bowie knife, and pis
tolls could be formed in every county in the State.
We learn that Maj. Clarke says that he has never
seen Capt Edmondston's company exceled in the
appearance of men and horses.

NORTH CAROLINA ITEMS.

PUT 1T TO 'EM.-The paper published at Newton
Catawba county, in this State says, that the ladies

FIRST N. C. REGIMESr.-The religious element
in this regiment is said to be very large, and the
war has had good influence upon the piety of the
regiment Strong religious feeling is said to pervade
it, and religious services are generally attended.
S. L. Fremont, ESQ.,, of Wilmington, proposes,
We see, to give instruction gratutously, to young
gentlemen of that place. in the science of Artillery,
of Military Engineering as applied to field fortitca
tons and also in the sabre exercise. He is said to
be very superior Artillery officer and we are sur
prsed he has not been called into the service of the
State.
The Wilmington Journal says, it is reported down
there, that some of the n. e. Regiments now FORM

Mt. Olive, Capt Thomas Ruffin, cavalry, at Colds

and one of Artillery, Capt. Andrews, Goldsboro.-
We'll done, old Wayne, and well done for Col. Ruff

to snap not having heard Of his moving for the war;
until the Convention elected him to the Congress,
at Richmond. Of course, the Colonel will not lead
that company now.
