ANOTHER FALsEnoop.--Thc " Bohemian" CORES
pondent of the Richmond Di$patch, in closing his
proSy, one-sdcd, and unintereSting account Of toe
battle Of Roanoke Island, says:
1.-THE 3lSt North Carolina at once run 10 their
quarters, Col. Jordan riding at the head Of the
frightened procession"
The above is utterly untrue. The two companies
of the 3lst engaged in the action oere the last to
retreat and the retreat of the 3lst to their quar-
tcrs, where the Surrender took place, was quite as
orderly and deliberate as the retreat of the other
troops on the island The truth is, this correspon
dent was not near the battle field, and has written
only from hearsay. There certain Yirginians-
all are not so-who write and talk rs if there were
no troops on the island but Virginia troops. False
hoods like the one to which we replying, have
no doubt constituted the basis which persons
high in place in Richmond have done gross injus
ticc to some Of troops engaged in this battle
Even the Yankees have done more justice TO our
troops than some of these Virginia writers have.

ISrEMPERANCE IN THE ARNY.-Thc Richmond
FAig has the following well timed and pertinent re-
marks upon the ruinouS practice of intemperance
among the officers of the army:
drunkenness in a military officer, is not merely
a vice, it is a crime. And if arc to measure
the atrocitv of crimes by the evil consequences
which flow from them, 1t is a crime of the darkest
dive The murder Of an individual is, by the decalo-
que and the laws Of all nations, caSSed amOrg the
highest offences of which man may be guilty.
But what is the murder Of individual, compared
with the wholesale slaughter of a company, rcg
ment, or an army, occaSiOned by the misconduct OF
officers, caused by drunkenness? The safety and
welfare not only of men who compose the army, but
OF the women aud children, and of all who remain at
home is entrusted to the officers in command OF the
army The proper discharge of this trust requires
sleepleSS vigilance untrng energy, wisdom in coun-
Gil and prumptneSS in action. There is no position
in which man can be placed, in which it is so
necessary for him to have all his intellectual iacul-
ties, and physical energies, unobScured and unim-
paired by any exlraneOus influences. The officer,
then, who in the hour of danger becloudS his rea-
son. and enfeebles his strength by intempcrancc, is
traitor to his country and fOrieis every just claim
TO confidence and respect

Fierce Fighting.

The Richmond Examiner Of 4 recent date, says
The only hope we have is in fighting fiercely;
if we succeed in beating the foe all is we'll if we
resisted with fearless and sangulnary determination,
for then we shall be respected and feared IN oyr
defeat"
If sce had admitted as the Examiner has in the
above extract that the result of the contest in which
we are engaged with the North is at all doubtful,
We should have been assaulted untrue to the South
But the Examiner right During the next three
months the North will aSsa US at al points with
exceeding fierceness AID rapidity. 1.-THE only hope
we have is in fighting fercely" Our whole power
must be consolidated and directed against
sailantS. II we succeed our independence will be
established; if we fail, 1--WE shall be respected and
feared in our defeat" If We had wise and energetic
leaders, and if country were preferred, as it should
be- but it is not to party the result Of this great
struggle could not be doubted. But man proposes,
and God dispoSes. Whatever may be the future con-
dlion or the future relations Of these Confederate
States, States they shall remain and not provinces
or territories, though every man who can bear arms
should be struck down in battle or delivered as cap
tives to the hands Of our foes. Courage, then,
Southern men! Fight fiercely for the enemy as
sails us on all sides, and the time is short From
this nettle, danger let pluck the flower, sattty"
The darkest hour always precedes the dawn.

GRANVILLE Co., N. c. March 8, 1862
Editor Of The Standard:
DEAR SIR: My attention has, on two occasions
during the progress Of this war; been called to ar
tlcles published IN your paper, asking why /, and
other residents of the State who have had the adj
vantage of early military training and education,
had not gone to the field Continued silence on my
part might imply an unwillingness to serve my
country ii. this hour of PERIL will, therefore, as
briefly as possible assign some reasons When the
war broke out, went to Raleigh and rendered my
services to Gov. Ellis. He assured me he would
need me, and that would hear from him soon. 1
heard nothing until about the time he organized the
State troops | then had some intimation from
him that would be commissioned; before it was
done, however, be dcd-and immediately repaired
to Raleigh second time, and rendered my services
to Governor Clark. | was informed that the State
Troops had been organized, but that he would &C
cept twelve months volunteers So anxious was
| to get into the service. l. came home and with
the cooperation of friends got sufficient number
OF men to organize company, and informed. the
Adjutant General, and asked permission to go into
camp, which was refused by the Governor through
the Adutant General, per letter, about the 18th
OF August last. beg leave to correct one error in
your article, viz: that am graduate of West
Point My course was interrupted by i'll health,
and left at the end of two years 1t is now good,
and am at the service of the State.

The CHARGE OF DISLOYALTY AGAINST THE OLD
UNION MEN.-We are not in the habit of referring
to anonymous correspondents, but the cOmmuuica-
ton Of Citizen in the last Register is of charac-
ter to merit notice; and notice 1t, not because
We suppose its source to 4syeSpectable, because
it contains any evidence OF ifnd in its author but
on account Of the Stereotyped charge it contains
against us of being untrue to the South.
Ii the Editor of this paper is untrue the South,
then are seventy thousand voters IN the State WHO
agree with him in his opinions also untrue. The
Sttudard has the largest circulation Of any political
paper in the State; AID if the Standard is untrue
to the South, then is infdelity to our quito
common and quite popular in this State But the
old Union men, it seems, are not only to get no
credit for what they do for the cause but they are
to be marked and hunted down. Their good names
are to be blasted 10y insnuations that they are false
to their native land because and only because they
did not prcter to dissolve the Union, and because
they cannot perceive and realize the truth of the
saying, that secession is Il peaceful remedy" So
far concerned nothing that we could do
would induce Of the original sccessionlsts to
do us justice. We might bcstow all we have on the
Confederate Cause, and thea give oar body to ne
burned a sacrifice TO Southern liberty; and STILL
after all this, there secession partizanS in this
State who would insult our ashes, and say were
too slow in the work of revolution and civil war
To these persons who thus pursue Us, our answer
is, ace dGtest and dry you.
But we have confidence in the intelligence Of the
people, and in their discriminating Judgment They
know and will remember those who thus Islander
thousands of our best and rueSt men and when
the opportunity is presented at the polls, they will
teach them lesson long to be remembered. If we
did not believe the people, III August next, would
put their feet the partzlns referred to- should
despair of free government itself.

HYMNS FOR THE CAMP-Mr. Crowder, the indie
fatigable Tract Agent and publisher has just laid
upon our table very neat copy Of Hymns for
the Camp The selection is admirable, and will
doubtless be received with gladness by our brave
soldiers. Many of the hymns win remind them of
home and of other days. Let the camps resound
with these sweet songs Of Zion. He will issue an
edition of 10000 in short time.
Persons abroad are probably not aware Of the
large amount Of tracts &c. which have been printed
in this city during the war. They have been print
ed also as low as they were formerly by the Tract
Society. Messrs. Strother & Maroon and the In
sttution for the Deaf and Dumb and the Blind,
have for the most part believe put up the type,
on very moderate terms, and while we claim no
credit for it. it has been pleasure to aid in this
good work by printing 100000 of pages at least,
from the Standard press, at about one-half of our
usual charge for preSswork.

state that the present draft for one third of the mi
Ita is not for two years for the way, but only to

70 authorize draft for the war. 1t is believed that
the bounty offered by the two governments will be
the means in addition 10 the patriotic feelings of
orr peope, of raising a sufficient number of men
from this State for the war; 1t is also believed that
the militia who are now being called outwill not

before it several propositions of similar import
The press very generally approve the proposition
The Yankees very certainly calculate to reap large
harvests of these products by the advance OF their
forces which can only be prevented by their re-
moval into the interior, or by their destruction on
the approach of the enemy.

ing in Beaufort harbor, besides the steamer Nash
vile. The enemy is doubtless much chagrined at
the recent dash Of the Nashville. We learn that
negroes are frequently making their escape to the
enemy from that section, and of course he is kept
advised of every movement there. Have the au-
thorties seen the necessity of having strict watch
kept up in Beaufort harbor? The negroes ought
to be prevented from escaping, and would it not be
as well to provide against the possibility of the
mys making night attack in boats and burning up
the ship and the steamer More daring feats than
that would be, have often been done.

This body seems to be fully at work preparing
business for the session. Several important meas
ures are before it, So far but little has been done
OF special interest to our readers. The following
preamble and resolution offered by Mr. Rails of Al
ALBANIA, a few days ago, passed Saantmously:
WHEREAS, The United States are waging war
against the Confederate States, with the avowed
parpose of compelling the latter to re-unite with
them under the same Constitution and government
and whereas the waging Of war with such an object
IS IN direct opposition to the sound Republican
I'm that "ail government rests upon the consent of
the governed, aud can only tend TO consolidation
IN the general government and the consequent de-
struction of the rights of the States and whereas
this result being attained. the two sections only
exlsttogether in the relation Of the oppressor and
tHe oppressed, because Of the great prepoHlerance
of power in the Northern section, coupled with dis
similarity o. interests; and whereas We the repre-
sentatves of the people Of the Confederate States
in Congress assembled, may be presumed to know
the sentiments of said people, having just been elect
cd by them: Therefore, be 1t
Res0tred, That this Congress do soiemnly de-
clare and publish to the world that it is the unalter
a0ie determination of the people of the Confederate
States lin humble reliance upon Almighty God) to
suffer all the calamites of the most protracted war;
but they will neOer, any terms politically al-
late with people who guilty of an invasion Of

WHIskRY-An intelligent western Woman |"
gives us lamentable account ofthe prospective con-
dition Of the people, because OF the immense guam
tity of corn now being distilled into nhiskey she
says there said to be $50 distleries in one OF
our. western Counties. or course those who distii
all the corn into whiskey will see to it hat the
people do not lack bread. There is, however, one
remarkable fact connected with this matter, that
people do not consider. It is said that the COM
plant against whiskey distillers is general if not
universal. But they cannot distil unless they can
get grain. Do people sell their grain to dsters at
high price, and then turn about and raise their
hands in holy horror at themi What hypocrisy !
Let the people keep their grain for bread and to
raise pork and dstillers will be forced to stop be-
fore the 10Th of April.

PLANT CoRN!-Every farmer owes it to his neigh
bOrs and to his country plant all the corn he can,
and to make as little cotton and tobacco as possible.
The soldiers must have meat and bread, and their
families at home must be provided for. Plant corn!
it is the staff Of life. good corn crop this year
will do more for the South than any thing else
The time for cotton and tobacco will come after q
while; but this is the year for planting corn.
