and Free Labor ction
I'm the south.
NEWBERN, N. c.. Dec. s.-The message of
Gov. Vance, OF N. c., to the General Assembly.
dated Nov. IL, has been received. Il is veYv
lengthy, and betrays nothing like Union senti.
ments, but appeals TO that stern and determined
devotion to our cause which can alone eustain
revolution. He reflects severely upon the
conscript law, and bitterly denounces the spirit
OF speculation and extortion prevailing in the
State. He says: Flour can now be used only by
the rich, and everything has tendency upward.
The Righteousness of morey and the high prices
Of property he alleges as reason why men
should be made to pay their debts. North Car
olina soldiers he says, are still suffering greatly
for want Of shoes and clothing. The present
debt of the State is $50, ,9s3, ,36l. sf /.
He says there is great danger of lawlessness
overrunning the land; that the people are be-
ginning to forget there is such thing as civil
law, and aijudes to the violent and law -defying
tendencies OF the times, and to the frequency
OF murder arson, disregard of obligations, 'op.
preston and Injustice. e6P -
Referring to the confinement In Saulsbury by
the Confederate authorities Of citizens Of North
Carolina, arrested for alleged political offensee,
he says, what their guilt consists Il, he does moi
know; but he does know that they were not ar
rested by lawful process. 7c Ei7 ID 3
HestroDgly denounces Che suspension of the
writ OF habeas corpus, the power OF which he
says he learns from newspapefs, Congress- has
conferred upon the President, and says that he
is unwilling 10 see such powers entrusted to any
living man. He objects TO the Oscillation 81
grain and the divereion Of the school fund 10
war purposes, and concludes BY urging upon the
Legislature the vital Importance Of bringing
forth all the powers and resources Of the STATE
for the common defense Of ous country and ouI

Extract from a Letter on the Battle Field


This battle (Antietam) has been the most
sAnguinary Of the war, and the only one fought
with visible design and upon military princi-
pies. The arrangement Of our corps - the
overlooking position Of the commanding Cen
eral-the sending into action the right and left
divisions-the closing up of the center, and g.
nal success--eIcites bewildering admiration,
and carries the mind to the great fields Of Aus.

all this have spoken. The heart history of
such conflict, purchased by the life and blood
of twenty thousand men, must be found In the
hospitals. Wsr has its glories--but 1t has its
ten thousand demons in these human tortures,

the lips palsy, and the brain reel. The sight

Report of the secretary Of III. NAVY.

q We have not room for more than a brief
synopsis OF the material points of Secretary
WELLEs's somewhat voluminous repori. The
following will be read with interest BY all of
our readers The growth Of our Navy has
been most remarkable. When Mr.. WELLrs
assumed charge Of his Department, March,
1851, ne found but forty two vessols all told
in commission, the most Of which we're at that
time abroad. There were 1900 marines or sea-
men then in the Government employ, only 2O7
OF whom we're available on the 10Th of March,
the remainder being abroad. At the writing of
this report the Government had, by purchase
and construction, 427 vessels .afloat, carving
S26S guns, the tonnage oi-whieh is sac, ,0ao IONS.
or this number IO4 are sailers and 1923 steam
vessels; 1913 Of the latter have been added BY
construction, which speaks more than any othe,
fact Of the energy of the Department. The
following are the losses,for the year. The r.
B. Forbes, Congress, Cumberland Whitehall,
M. J. Carlton, Varuna, Sidney C. Jones, Island

ter, The tonnage of those vessels was 1908,
and their number of guns ll2.
We have afoat, included in the 427 vessels,

We make the following extracts of general
interest from the report:
