In politics, the paper win be Republican, sus-
tanning the Administration Of Mr.. Lincoln but dis
| claiming, however. any prctensiOn to be the orga
of the President.
| There is no other Republican paper in the Dis.
trict Of Columbia, or in the vicinity of it, and it is
believed that recent events have opened tc such
paper an important sthctc of useful effort. The

the Government upon Republican principles will
explode the Misrepresentation which have made
those principles so distasteftl to the South.
But it is not only here, and in this vicinity that
the projectors of the National RepuJiican hope to
make it useful. To the whole country they offer
journal Which will discuss national politics from
national standpoint, and which will never be

pressure of local interest.

Unsuitable Yankee rapacity has been gloat-
ing itself on the property of citizens of Y.
Carolina, for some time past, with perfect
~impunlty. The country around " a>hinston
and Newbern has been pillaged and plunder-
ed at pleasure, the thievish rascalS carving
Oft whatever suited their fancy. 10 their
acts OF theft and rapine, they added insult
and outrage. It has been determined, we
learn, to put a stop to this business, or at
least to substitute manly resistance for the
tame, degrading submission which has, fer
some time been practicea.
About a week ago, Gen. Martin was trans
terred to the command of the forces in North
Carolina. He had heard of the Yankee raids
which had been perpetrated in the region Of
Washington, and Immediately conceived the
idea OF paying that ancient town a visit
Unattended by suite or staff, he left Raleigh

day, he was followed by his Adiutant Gen.
eral, Maj. Gordon. Out of the forces at his
command, he selected a feR companies Of
cavalry and infantry and a section of a bat
terry of flying artillery, and proceeded to-
wards Washington. On Friday night they
arrived within a few miles of WashinqtoI
where they encamped for the night. A
dawn of day, Saturday morning, they adyan
ced upon the town, where a brisk skirmish
rising perhaps to the dignity of a fight, en-
sued, Our men encountered one or NOR
batteries of the enemy as they entered tn
town, which opened on them with deadl
effect, and which they had been led to be-
lieve had been dismantled or stripped c
their guns. Nothing daunted, however, the
rushed impetuously on and passed these bat
teries and gained the interior of the towr
where the fight continued, almost hand I

expiration of this time, the Yanks. as usua

Inauguration Of Gov. Vance.

Col. q. B. Vance, Governor elect, was duly
indicted into the duties of his Office, on Mon.
day, the 9th inst, in the presence of a large
c%oncourse of people. The oaths of Office
were administered by Chief Justice Pearson,
after which Gov. V. delivered q most eloquent,
patriotic and satisfactory Inaugural Address,
which will be found en- the fourth page of
this paper.
We have heard of no one bat was we'll
pleased and entirely satisfied with the spirit
aAd sentiment of the Address-those whovo.
ted against him being among it's warmest
praises. Gov. V. therefore enters upon his
responsible duties at this critical and immi
nent period of our States history, with littl,
or ne prejudice or partisan animosity from
any quarter, and we doubt not will meet tn
expectations of the public in his administra
ton, by discharging the duties of his ofic
free from all e~ntangling alliances of a part
san character, looking emily to the good of th
State, the whole State, and the State an
country alone.
We invite the attention of all to his AID
dress-breathing as It does the spirit of IL
true Patriot, and the enlightened, inparti
Statesman.

Thanksgiving.

In view Of the signal victories of our
armies in the defence of our capital, the late
successive triumphs over our enemies on the
plains Of Manassas, and the equally brilliant
successes of our troops in kentucky, the
President of the Confederate States has is
sued his proclamation setting apart Thurs
dav the 18th of September instant, as a
aay of prayer and Thanksgiving to Almighty
God. for the great mercies vouchsafed to our
people, and more especially for the triumph
Of oor arms at Richmond and at Manassas;
and specially invites the people of the Con-
federate States to meet on that day at their
respective places of public worship, and unite
ia rendering Thanks and Praise to God for
these great mercies, and implore Him to con-
duct our country safe through the perils
which surround US, to the fiual attain
ment of the blessings OF peace and securi-
ty."
In truth we have much cause to humble
ourselves. and be thankful tor the assistance
of that Almighty arm which has enabled US
to overcome our enemies in the great battles
in which we have been engaged and 1t IS
meet and right that We as a people should
bow down in alteration and praise to thai
gracious God, who has been our bulwark ane
orr defence. In His hands are the issues o.
all events, and may We not lmplore his ale
in this crisis, and beseech him so to dispose
the hearts of men, that a speedy peace VII
nut an end to this wasteful flow ofblood, AM
that prosperity, joy and gladness may agar
cover our whole land.

Msyfeld found leisure to examine a little
packet which Mr.. Bushie had placed in her
hand ut parting. 1t contained q check for
$1,000, payable to Rosalie's order. So
The rich cousin had opened his heart for
once.
BY the time the newly married pair had re-
turned from their journey, Mrs. Mayfeld had
grown quite willing to admit that it might
have been much worse. When they had
been at home tive or three weeks, and her
goodwill had been yet further propitiated
By Numerous little flial attentions from Mr..
henry, you could hardly have persuaded her
that anything could be better. Rosalie had
q good husband, atalented, allowing husband;
and, after all, happiness did not consist in
having money to spend. This pleasant view
of things was not lessened by the discovery
that the " property" already spoken OF,
though small, was not paltry, and would
form an acceptable addition to their IN
come.
A house was puTshased, after suitable
hunting, not indeed in the Fifth Avenue or
Madison Square, yet within the enchanted
limits of Upper Tendon. 1t was not a " pal
ace" but was sufficiently spacious and con-
venient for a small family. They furnished
it prettily, not extravagantly there was MOI
a Aubusson carpet, a buhl cabinet, a Claude
or a Titan $50 called in the building from
top to bottom. There were plenty OF books,
however, and fine engravings and such car
pets and furniture as they had were thor.
-oughly swept and nicely busted. They had
no fine or fashionable servants /; but, on the
other hand, they possessed their souls in
peace, and were never cut to the quick by a
sneer from a lady's maid or a foreign cook.
Life went very smoothly with them and, as
natural consequence, with their happy and
sympathizing mother.
One evening when she was sitting by the
nursery FIRE with a little Rosalie on her knee,
while a fine boy played at her feet, she relat
ed to Rosalie mere the story of her mistake
and the woeful distress it caused her.
But I recovered from it long ago" sht
added, laughing, land would not exchange
Edgar now for any millionaire of them all
And Resale, my love, I often think of wha
your poor father used to say-that it is bet
Ter to have desires according to our means
than means according to our desires since
ID the first case, we very soon reach a limit
but in the second our fancies so grow AM
expand that the wealth of Crasus himsel
would not contentus."

From the Enemy's Lines.

We have had an opportunity recently OF
conversing with one who has been within
the enemy's lines since the evacuation of
Norfolk. 1t is indeed notwithstanding to lis
ten to an account Of the wrongs, privations
and insults, besides the robbery of property,
to which the citizens thus situated have had to
submit. Nearly all of the negroes have gone
to the enemy's camps houses, barns, smoke
houses, hen %roosts, &C., have been robbed,
and indignity and insult are heapcd upon
the owners whilethe vile thieves are stripping
them of their property.
But in the midst of all this oppression and
wrong, very few have polluted their con-
sciences by taking the Infamous and ha-
ted oath of allegiance, or accepting "pa-
rele," for the protection of their property
and the security even of their families-as
they promise, but VIGOROUSLY disregard.
Gen. Viele, the officer in command at Nor
folk, is spoken of es ra.h~r ~e~-.sao"'"1,ly KIND
Of uaan, especially TO the ladies who visit him
for a redress of grievances committed by his
prowling, thieving soloiery. Our informant
cites instances of restitution of some prop
erty, but no negroes are ever given up.
The citizens Of Norfolk and Portsmouth
and surrounding country are bold and def
ant in their necessary intercourse with thu
4ankees--plainly telling them that thsii
time will soon come. God speed the day.
