WILMINGTON. N. c.. Nov. 30 1852

WILMINGTON, N c., Nov. 80, 1862.
Mr.. EDTToR:-Since my arrival here have sent
you two letters, one of which thought would prove
highly interesting to your readers, especially to
those who re ;ees from this place the other
doubtless would not have been Objectionable. Their
non-appearance can attribute to no other cause
than their non arrival.
The city still looks gloomy-very few families
returned Gen. Writings proclamation has caused
a good many who would have returned long SINCE
to seek winter quarters as far from this region
possible. An early attack on the place seems now
almost inevitable. Soldiers are pouring in. 1t is
Gen. Writings intention to hold the place. If pos
sible-if necessary, to burn it. Col Lambs Whit
worth guns will do good execution-they are per-
feet terror to the blockaders.
The sanitary condition of the town is still dread
full and it is wonderful that we can calmly pray
once week for deliverance from pestileEce whilst
the accumulated filth of the place cries up to Heaven
against it. good many of the cellars on Market
St are filled with stagnatcd water and in perfect
state of putridIty. The cemetery reminds one
more of potatoe patch than any thing else-under
the ridges and dots lie our best friends good and
brave men, and some Of Wilmingtons farest daugh-
tiers. Their memory, like their presence, will ever
be sweet to contemplate and we can only think Of
such fitting spirits to chaunt praises in higher
and better world above.
Salt now is the alltopic of the day. Gov. Vances
proclamation has produced quite panic among the
makers. In one day it fell from $25 to $11. A.
good many are holding it for $50. 1 suppose, from
a rough calculation, there cannot be less than ten
thousand bushels on the Sound now, and with
production of three thousand bushels daily the ac-
formulation must be great. To-day, spectators are
buying at $22 Provisions are getting higher and
higher-chickens to-day selling at 50 per pair
butter ST. 90 per h., and other things in proper
ton. Mems conscences have certainly left them.
The election of Hon. VIM. A. Graham has done
the souls of good many of our people good.

Our TRooPs MUST BE AcTIyE-0ur people in the
Eastern counties have suffered much for the want of
greater activity and courage in the commanders of
our RanesFs and other forces. A few of them, such
men as Capt Tucker, Major Nethercutt Capt. New
kirk, Capt Adams and Capt Whitford and perhaps
others, have shown daring, activity and efficiency,
but from what we have heard, too many have been
slack-twisted. Last week Yankee gunboat steam
ed up into New River, in Onslow, and committed
some depredatons at Jacksonville. Capt. Newkirk's
cavalry attacked the boat and captured her crew
and destroyed the boat
Capt. j. N Whitfords company, which has been
operating efficiently in Craven, last week captured
Yankee gun-boat taking 20 yankee prisoners and %
negroes. The prisoners have been sent on to Rich
mond
