DEAR SIR: Your letter of the 18th instant was
handed me to. day by Mr.. Simon Goodwin, in which
several enquiries made in regard to a meeting
held in Smithfield Saturday before last to petition
General Holmes to appoint Military Patrol forAhis
4lst Reg't) In reply to which, will endeavor to
answer your enquiries questions IN order as they
are made or propounded in your letter. First |
am asked what part Col. Heath took in this meet
ingg In reply to which, can only say he came to
my house and said he wished to see me, when We
walked out and down to the Court House. Soon
after We left the house. the Colonel told me he had
been informed that the citizens of Wayne and Will
son. and perhaps others, had petitioned Gen. Holmes
to appoint Military Patrol for those counties,
which petition he had granted, and made the ap-
pointment, and that there was meeting at that
time at the Court House of some of our citizens to
consider the matter in reference to this county, and
asked me to 60 down and participate with them.
asking at the same time what thought of it. l
replied to him could see no objection to il, and,
other counties had considered and asked it, and
the Patrol was understood at all times to be under
the CONTROL and subject to the orders of the General
it might be good move When we got to the
Court House, we went into the Superior Court
Clerks office, in which was several gentlemen. A
petition had been drawn up asking the appointment
of the Patrol above referred to- Mr. VIM H. Joyner
on the tax lists for this Regiment to fill blank in
the petition. In regard to the secresy of the meet
ing, can only say we acted with the door closed,
and that some secresy enjoined, but for what it
was not stated, nor do l know any particular rea-
san for such injunction. presume very few of our
citizens knew anything of the meeting. I knew
nothing Of it until Col Heath came to my house
and informed me of it. If there had been any call
for such meeting have no knowledge of it
In regard to Col. Heath's contemplated visit to
Gen. Holmes, it was understood that he would 80
down and present the petition the Monday follow
ing if sufficient number of signatures of persons
above the age Of 35 years could be obtained in time
As to the manner by which the signatures were to
be obtained, think it was by general request, Col.
Heath took the petition to get The signatures re-
quired 1t is true, Col. Heath, Lieut.. Col. Whit
ley and Adutant Atkinson were among the persons
recommended to be appointed.
As you will perceive, was invited into the meet
ing after the commencement and after the prelImi-
naries were through WITH and, therefore, cannot
answer all your enquiries so full as may be expect
ed, or as others might be able to do.
Yours very respectfully,
EDWIN BOYKIN.

composed If men between the ages OF Is and 80
years, and stated that the citizens Of Wayne and
Wilson counties had petitioned and secured such
patrol He further stated that a meeting was being
held in the Court House there, and said leone in
and hear the argument" l went in with him and
learned petition was being drawn up by Mr.. VIM.
H. Joyner, for the purposes above stated which
was afterwards read and accepted. The PROPOSE
ton was to recommend men from each Captains
district of whom should be slave owners and
non. slave owners-and for Smithtield district sng
gested Col. Heath, D. W. Boykin, S. R. Morgan,
and Mr.. Boykin mentioned Wm Nichols, and sug-
gested his name. Secresy was enjoined for the
present, but do not recoect by whom suggested,
and acquesced in it. 1t was remarked that Col.
Heath would carry the petition to Gen. Holmes, and

With regard to the certificate to which you refer,
l was not aware that any particular word was ital-

OF THE WAR
The following is from the Examiner of the

l3lu-
But until very lately the conduct Of the war
On the part OF the South has been defensive
in the strictcst sense of the word. So far as
the general actions are concerned, our unique
plan has bsen to wait un:il the enemy hid
slowly gathered around him eTery appliance
OF victory and driven In our plckets with his
| columns. Then, and not till then have the
Southern generals fought. In many cases
! they repel1cd the attack: in not one have they
| used the opportunity of victory to gsin a
further advantage or to push the enemy be-
| tore them. In the plau Of campaigns tue r.
rudiation of every offensive element has been
even more remarkable. Not one single South
ern soldier has yet set his foot on the soil Of
Northern State. With every opportunity to
enter Maryland, Pennsylvania, Kentucky and
Ohio, in the early psrt Of last summer, the
whole season was spent in collecting troops
in q line of posts along frontier Of 1900
| it's weakest point, when the enemy had con
centrated at leisure 5000 men against tue
mouth Of a river defended By 10000, and
broken through the defense, al the posts aud
board were 1anked, and had to be eTlcuated
one after another
Not yet delivered Of the defensive 1unacy,
the confedefacy attempted to form second

, Cult States; but il the common sense Of the

cause its abandonment, the speedy operations
