Mr.. Cowle's Resolutions.

The following resolutions were introduced into
the House Of Commons on Monday last BY Mr..
Cowles of Yadkin, and ordered to be printed and
made the special order for Friday. These resolu-
tons, it seems to us, embody the views of large
majority of our people at this time:
Resolued, That however necessary to the mainten-
ance of the common cause, to which we have pledg-
ed our lives and fortunes, may be the execution of
the laws passed by the Confederate Congress, known
as the Conscrpton laws, yet said laws being harsh
and ungraefu in their provisions, it is Of the utmost
Importance that they should be executed with great
care and tenderness of the liberties of the people
Therefore,
Be it further Resolred That the maintenance Of
the rights Of the States and the preservation of the
civil liberties which people have ever enjoyed,
require that said laws should be executed in the sew
era States only by the officers Of said States appon-
ted by, and responsible to the constituted author
tiles OF said States. .,.r ,.
Resolrea further, That whilst North Carolina is
willing to furnish her full quota in men and money,
for the prosecution of the war in which we are now
engaged yet, justice to herself and the defence of
her own soil, now occupied and threatened by the
enemy alike require that her executive authorities
should SEQ to it. that she furnish no more than her
just proportion of men and money, until the inva-
der is driven from her owl, soil, and the lives and
homes of her own citizens secured from the lmpen-
ding danger @ ..-

MORGAN, TIE GuERRLLA.--Mor-
gan was by profession a negro-trader
IA branch of business as much des-
pised in the Slave as in the Free
States-and in practice a gambler and
libertine, in all Of which he is said TO
have had considerable success.
Until the war began, Morgan was
regarded in the section where lie was
known, as low-bred fellow, whom
few gentlemen would, and no laly
could, recognize. lie had no position
in society, was esteemed by no one,
aud his reputation was such that TO
woman could have been seen with him
without seriously endangering her fair
fame. He had gained considerable
notoriety, however, in the times Of
peace, by two or three street fights, in
which his conduct is reported to have
been rather that Of an assassin than a
here, and by sundry outrages upon
poor and unfriended women whom lie
has betrayed.
Now all this is changed. He has
suddenly become, in Secession estima-
ton, an honorable knight and a cbiy-
airic cavalier. The women, in pariic-
ular, are his admirers. They have
grown Morgan-mad--eyen those of
cultivation and refinement.
The very danes and maidens wlJ
have held their garments carefully
away from John Morgana passing %

TIE GREEK REvoLUTIoN.-The
late rebellion in Greece was univer-
sal. Never before, perhaps, has a
whole people SO unanimously elect q
ruler, or set a reigning sovereign
alrift The citizens, the clergy, tie
army and the navy were all against
King Ohio, and he left the country he
had lived in and governed for thirty
years, without voice raised il his e..
vor, or hardly friend to mourn his
departure. The king was absent from
Athens at the time the revolution
broke out, and the movement initiated
by the army was joined ia by the peo-
pie of the city and all The surrounding
country. Little or no mischief was
done; the political prisoners were dis
charged, and few panes Of glass bro
ken in the kings palace. The queens
Jewels were not molested, but were
safely carried off by her mistress Of
the robes. When the king returned
he found that he had lost his authori-
ty, and male no attempts 10 regain it,
but started Immediately for a more
congenial cline, where, If he has less
power, he win also have less trouble
and moro real happiness. The Greeks
have determined 10 stick to monarchy,

before that furious rebel charge, and
when they so nearly obtained possess

and picked up q gun and remained in
pos ion. A rebel Captain, who
was one Of tie first to enter the works,
called on him 70 surrender: he re-
Piled, ! never surrender" and shot
the Captain private attacking him
just tllen, he knocked him down with
his gun and bayoneted him and be-
fore any more could get at him, our
men had rallied and driven the rebels
oli. So that be held the work solitary
end alonei and by the time the regi-
ment got in again, he had robbed the
Captain Of $l40 in confederate money,
and such other little articles Of value
he had about his person.
