The Latest News.

The Richmond papers contain full accounts of
one of the most daring and brilliant feats of this or
any other war, performed last week by the LIST and
9Th Regiments of Virginia Cavalry un Ter Col Lee,
one regiment from the JEFF. DAVIS Legion under
Col. Martin, the Cavalry from Cobb's Legion and
two pieces of Artillery sent out from Ashland all
under the command of Gen j. B. Stuart
The expedition set out on Thursday evening
passed the right of the enemy's lines on Friday
morning. and fell upon the enemy's cavalry at Old
Church, and sharp conflict took number of pris-
oners routing the enemy, and destroyed their CAMPS
and stores. At Hanover town, on the Pamunkcy
river, they DESTROYED three transports filled with
stores, and drove everything before them. On to
the hite House on the York Railroad they went
attacked the train, killing several, thence to New
Kent destroying vast amount of the enemy's
Stores and thence the Chickahominy to Rich
mond by Saturday morning, thus accomplishing the
entire circuit in the of McClellans forces de-
stroying it is said S2OOOOOO of the enemys stores
killing a number capturing ITO prisoners, 800
horses and mules, destroying three Transports
burning 200 army wagons laden with stores losing
but one man, Capt. LataDe, and two wounded. A
more astonishing daring and brilliant feat is not
record 1t only confirms US in our oltrepeated
declarations, that if our army's permitted to go
ahead the world would be astounded at our daring
and proves.
The idea of McClellans evacuating Chickahominy
has no proper foundation 1t is believed that he
has been re inforced with McDowers entire COM
mand.
jackson was still driving the enemy, who seem
disposed to retire from tbe Valley.
We have nothing new from the Southwest, nor
from Charleston. The advance Of the enemy at
Cumberland Gap and at Charleston is constantly
looked for.
The rumor of our recognition by France is based
upon the statement of persons recently from Ha-
wanna. The Columbia s. G. papers state that pr-
vate dispatches there state that official of the
fact has been received at Richmond.
The Richmond Enquirer states that it is in
temptation to run the trains on the Central Railroad
from Richmond in a few days.

PUBLIC OPINIoN.-0ne thing is certain; there is
widespread dissatisfaction on account of general
opinion that the President has not been prosecuting
the war with the vigor that he might, and that he
is not avang himself Of the advantages Of the coun-
sells and judgment of the best minds of the coun-
try.-Atlanta COntederGcy
We defy our slanderers and malgners, who
charge US with being untrue to the Southern Con-
federacy-who falsely accuse US of villifying and
abusing President Davis-to produce any thing We
have said, more than is declared in the above para
graph Original secession papers may say just
what they please, but the Standard which we con-
tend has been the uest of the true to the South be-
cause it has unfalerngly watched her interests and
warned her of approaching danger both from NTH
out and from within, dare not complain of the in
efficiency of the State or Confederate governments,
which is palpable to any one-dare not allude to
the ncompetency the partyism or the corruption Of
the subordinates in either government without being
denounced as a traitor, The yenality and corrup-
ton ofthe times cannot bear the truth. But
sFruth crushed to earth will rise again;
The eternal years of Goo are hers "
But Error wounded, wriihes ia pain,
And dies amid her worshppers"

RumOrs.

The rumor has been rife for several days that
Lincoln or some one else, had offered an armistce
to the Confederate government, proposing cessa-
ton of hostilities for twelve months 1t is not only
untrue, but we presume there was no foundation
for the rumor whatever.
1t is also rumored that Lord Lyons has left Wash
ington for Europe and it is reported in such man
ner as to indicate that he has left good humor
with Lincoln.
The Northern papers state that Lord Lyons has
left for Europe, but the New York Herald says that
he goes upon the invitation of Seward to assure the
British government that the war will soon close
We do not believe the Herald. We presume Lord
Lyons has enough of his own business to take him
to Europe ...
Statements are becoming rife again that France
will certainly urge very speedily its mediation to
end the war between the North and South.
We beg our readers to rely upon nothing to end
the war, bu: hard fighting on our part Stonewal
Jackson is doing more to make the Yankees sick of
it, than all other things agencies put together.
There is said to be large British feet of war
vessels at Hampton Roads. Also. that there is
large French feet of war vessels off Charleston
The latest rumor is that France has acknowledged
our independence. We do not credit it.

PrnviSinn for the Armv

With prudent fOrethought, we trust the govern
sary provision which must be made for the food and
clothing of the army during the approaching win
ter. The mastery strategic movements, retreats
and routes of our large armies have nearly denuded
our brave men of food, clothing blankets, ct cet,
which the government with promptness must sup
ply 1t is really. doubtful whether these articles
can be obtained even now IN the Confederacy in
sufficient quantities to meet the absolute necessities
of the army. What must be the result, if our ar
mics continue to fall back and the enemy occupies
forces? From Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Missou-
ri and Kentucky we can expect nothing. The fall
ing back of Beauregard from Corinth, leaves Ten
nessee almost entirely to the mercy of the enemy,
and the occupancy of One-half of Virginia and por-
tions of other States, leaves small margin CON-
paratvey from which these articles to be drawn.
1t is therefore plain to the sober ofevery man
that the war must be conducted on different princ
pies or our armies must break down from sheer
want of what is necessary to their support. What
is to be done? We venture that StoDewall jackson
can answer the question at once Our supplies
all our supplies for the army, whether 1t be quar-
:ermaster, commssary, ordinance medical stores,
must be mainly supplied from the enemy. Let him
be attacked vigorously at every point, under the
lead of men who know the value Of army stores, and
months the Confcderacy will have an abundance.

TIE CLovEN FooT.-The Wilmington Journal
speaking of members of the Legislature from New
Hanover, says:
although we cannot recognize party distinctions
as now existing yet as an act of courtesy, if no.
L. thing else, we would like to see such an arrange
ment. as would place upon the county ticket. the
name of some member or members, at least of tbs
former opposition party in this State"
The meaning Of which is, that old line Wings who
are original secessionists, or who affiliate with and
do the work of original secessionisis may be chosen
with original secessionists to represent the County
The Journal taking its cue from those high in place
at Raleigh and Richmond, has no confidence in those
who opposed secession up to the proclamation Of
Lincoln.

Our BANKs-It will be seen that the Bank Of
Commerce at Newbern, now doing business at Com
panys Shops, has declared semi-annual dividend
of per cent. on its capital stock. The Merchants
Bank of Newbern and the Bank Of Washington are
both doing business at Greensboro, and the Branch
Bank of Cape Fear, Of Washington, has been re-
moved to Tarboro The branch of the Bank of
North-C Carolina of Newbern has been removed here,
and does its business at the Principal Bank, we
believe.
We see it stated in some of the papers that some
doubt has been created in the minds of the people
in regard to the value of the notes of those banks
in circulation which have been compelled to leave
Newbern and Washington. The public need not
feel any apprehension on that subject Their notes
good any, their assets having been removed

LincoIn,s Go ernor. at Newbern.

From the accounts we get from the Northern pa
pers it is becoming evident that Mr.. Stanly is about
as much dec i've in regard to the designs and poll
cy of the Lincoln government he was in his esti-
mate of the feelings and views Of the people of North
Carolina in regard to Lincoln and the old Union.
1t appears that soon after entering upon his du-
ties at Newbern, Stanly broke up the negro schools
which had been instituted under the auspices Of
Burnside sent off the Infamous Helper and others
to the North, and proposed the restoration Of fug
tive slaves to their upon condition that they
took the oath of allegiance to the United States.
These measures have raised storm at the North,
and few days ago. Sumner of Mass, introduced a
resolution in the Senate requesting Lincoln to re-
woke Stanly's orders: We learn verbally that Lin
coin has complied with the request. 1t remains to
be seen whether the Governor has the spirit to resist
and resign, or to hold on and be made the tool of
the unconstitutional and tyrannical designs Of the
Lincoln despotsm.

Capt. j. j. Evans, recently of the army Of the
Chlckahominy, has been authorized by the Secre-
tary of War to raise a company of so mounted men,
to boattached to Stolewall Jackson's army. Pri-
Yates in the company will get 500 bounty, and
have other advantages for the use of their horses,

men who wish active SERVICE and who desire to dis
tinguish themselves under old Stonewall. Captain
Evans may be addressed at Graham, N. @, where
he has his office.

TAX ON DrsTILLERs-A correspondent desires to
know whether there is any authority to levy tax
on distllers in addition to the tax of 80 cents per
gallon imposed by the Convention. BE says tine
Justices in his County have levied tax of twenty
cents in addition to the State tax We know of no
authority for such tax in addition to the State tax
but it may be that the County referred to has the
right, under special law, to impose such taxes
as the Justices may deem proper.

THE CoSvENrox-The reader will find in the
Standard to-day an interesting article, from the
Greensborough Patriot, on the subject of the ac-
ton Of the Convention The Patriot refers to the
effort which was made to settle the basis question
in the Senate, but this effort was defeated by GER
tain gentlemen in the Convention from the west
from what motive we know not. The journals OF
the Convention, when published, will show who
these gentlemen are. The following is the amend
ment offered by Mr. Gilmer and which, lift had been
adopted, would have settled this distracting queS-
ton:
1.-THE Senate shall consist of ffay-two members,
chosen by ballot and in districts four of which shall
be assigned to the Counties Of Mitchell ianGey'
Madison, Buncom6e, Henderson, Pennsylvania, Hay
wood, jackson, Macon, Clay and Cherokee ana such
Counties as NAV he formed from them, and the re-
manning forty eight shall be divided among the 9TH
