Gen. Sterling Price,

The public eye has been somewhat turned for
several months from this able general He has been
evidently hampered in his operations by being
placed in a subordinate POSITION. No two men IN
the South so we'll understand the character of this
war, the management of our volunteer troops and
the temper of our people as Sterling Price and
"Stonewall" jackson. To place them in subordinate
positions is to hamper them. Give them separate
commands, and they will soon rid the Confederacy
of the enemy.
A gentleman informs us that recently in brief
speech at Montgomery, Ala, Gen. Price spoke en-
couragingly of our prospects and said that the
public would soon hear from him. But said be,
"you will never hear that the enemy goes to ditch.
ing within ten miles of my camp" If it be true
that Gen. Magruder instead of Gen. Price, as re-
ported has been placed in command west Of the
Mississippi, the country will deplore it. The people
of the West know Gen. Price and know how to
appreciate him. Gen. Magruder is an able man, but
he cannot excite the enthusiasm of the West that
Price can nor can he rally them to his standard so
readily.

Council B. WooD.-A correspondent calls our at
tenton to the fact that Council B. Wood of Craven,
recently appointed Director of the Atlantic and
North Carolina Railroad, is within the enemys lines.
Our correspondent says, reliable authority de-
clares that soon after the fall of Newbern, c. b.
Wood for the purpose Of recovering negro boy,
visited Burnside and took the oath of allegiance to
Lincoln's government We all know he is still with
in the enemy's lines. His appointment, under such
circumstances, has aroused the indignation of all
who are acqusmted with the facts" We hope it will
turn out that our correspondent is mistaken as to
Mr. Woods having taken the oath. But it is strange
that Gov Clark should have appointed to an impor.
tant State office person residing within the enc
my's lines Yet old Union men or conservatives
have no right to complain. Gov. Clark and origi'

The PEOPLE FOR VANcE.-We invite the careful
and diligent attention of Stalederate friends to
the proceedings in Robson, Beaufort, and Gran
Vile, in the Standard today, expressing their en-
thusiastc preference for Col. Vance for Governor.
The mnons of party may decry and underrate Col.
Vance, but he fights all the better for it, and the
people will see him through with tempest of en-
thusiasm "Old Zeb" is only second in popularity
to "Old Hickory" and "Old lack" in their day
and, what is better he is just as good, as true and
as brave as they we're. Our amiabe neighbor Of

25th June, "candidly and sorrowfully, that he IS
doomed man. He cannot be elected Governor. -

have hired substitutes between the ages of IL and
So, are exempt. We think they are not. The law
makes dema and for personal service on all between
10 and 35, and exemption from this service can be
claimed only on the following grounds: LIST, Ex-
emptions mentioned in the law itself, by the Sec
rotary of War. I'd, Physical disability, of which
the Confederate physicians at Raleigh and States
vile must judge. Sd. Substitutes under Is and

So, is himself consrcipt
Another correspondent wishes US to publish the
votes on the test oath proposed by the original Sc
space. The oath, together with an able argument
against imposing it. may be found in the speech OF
Gov. Graham delivered before the Convention. We
have some copies of this speech still on hand, and
will send them to such as would like to have them.
The party headed by William Johnston, Of Neck
lepburg, were especially active in their efforts to
muzze the press and tie the tongues of the people
They did not believe either untrue to the South,
but they knew they had acted so badly in State af
fairs that their conduct would not bear discussion
| and hence they attempted to silence the press and
the people by force.

know how it is that all the soldiers over IS are not
to be discharged at the end of three months
The decision by the Secretary of War was that they
would be, but he afterwards changed this decision,
and ordered the discharge Of only the twelve months
men over that age. Those who volunteered for the
war are held in service, matter what their ages
may be. In regard to the State bounty, every man
man who has volunteered is entitled to it, whether
discharged or not To take this bounty from the
