handsome majority. Remember, those of you who
were Union men up to the proclamation in April
last that the edct has gone forth from the ultra Sc

sons are in the field fighting against Lincoln, and
you are doing all you can to sustain the war. Go 10
the polls and, in sefdefence rebuke this ntolerant
spirit, which would place you on a level with the
tories of the revolution. We have begged these
utrae time and again. to discard all party feeling but
they have turned deaf ear to appeals. Let US,
them vote against them, and vote them down, no
matter what they called themselves when old par.
ties existed and let US stand by our friends nou
no matter what they were called before the old par
ties were broken up. The ultras have forced this
course upon US, and let US perform our duty like
men, Weknow there are many Of the old secession
lists who disapprove of the ntolerant spirit referred
to; and we trust they will show this disapprova
by setting their faces against those who indulge
this spirit

Seward as a Diplomatist.

The Richmond daily papers contain the lengthy
correspondence between the British and French
governments with Mr.. Seward upon the Mason
Slidell affair." 1t is altogether too vouminous for
eur columns. Whatever reputation Seward may
have shrewd politician and willy hypocrite this
correspondence exhibits him in any other light than
that of an astute and able diplomatst The cor
respondcnce opens with direct ard manly letter
from Earl Russell to Lord Lyons, briefly narrating
Abe offence of Com. Wilkes, expressing the hope
that Lincolns government did not order and will not
justify the act and authorizing Lord Lyons to f'rn
ish copy to Mr.. Seward, in the hope that he will
of his own accord promptly deliver Messrs. Mason
and Sdell up, accompanied with suitable apology,
but that in he does not Lord Lyons is to make
the demand The letter. of the British minister,
Earl Russell, was duly laid before Mr.: Seward, who
employs several days in lengthy reply. The la
bored quibbng Of Mr.. Stewards letter, in which he
attempts to justify the act and then acknowledges
its error, are happily summed up by the Richmond
Enquirer thus:
ITO sum up: 1st The capture was right-when
tested by justice, and law, and decorum; I'd. Its
advantages must be surrendered upon all assumed
techn2cGEty IN court Where there are no peadngS;
3d. The capture was ,orong, as Judged by the prin-
cples always maintained in the United States even
to the extremity of war;"
In support Of the first position, Seward arrays his
assumptions as proofs, and argues the case on the
British SIDE as if to instruct the British diploma
tsts when, after wasting deal Of breath, he sud-
denly backs down, apologies for Com. Wilkes
course, and fatty acknowledges that on American
principles and according to the uniform practice Of
his government, the capture was wholly indefensi-

giving them up. hoping that display of such mag
nanimity will be satisfactory to the British govern
| ment The whole letter, dictated under the i'm
pulses Of cowardice and hypocrtical can't is beneath
contempt. Lord Lyons simply replies that his CON-
| munication will be forwarded to his government,
and that he will make the necessary arrangements
for receiving our ENJOYS on British vessel. Along
with the correspondence is perspicuous letter from
the French Minister, NJ. Thouvene to the reprcsen-
tative of France near Lincoln's government in
which the position of the British government is full
ly sustained; in reply to which Mr.. Seward hopes
that his letter to the British government and his
subsequent course will be satisfactory. more dis.
graceful back out does not blot American annals.

The attempt to blockade the port of Charleston
by sinking vessels filled with stone in the channel
is SO manifestly at war with the law of nations and
the commerce of the world that the British govern
ment must promptly investigate it Already the
London Post, Palmerston's organ, declares that
the harbor of Charleston belongs to the world and
cannot be given up to an inefficient blockade
Besides this, in Mr.. Stewards recent despatch to
Mr.. Adams, the Lincoln minister to Great Britain,
after endorsing the false statement which Mr.. Ad-
ans made to Lord Palmerstoh, "that the life of this

by the hopes of recognition in Great Britain and in
France" he goes to say, II have never for mo-
ment believed that such recognition could take
place without producing Immediately war between
the United States and all the recognizing powers.
Such threat in advance from so puerile source,
can only tend to increase their difficulties. England
will doubtless recognize the Southern Confederacy

of France. Seward will, therefore, have another

A Forgery.

The Richmond Examiner and Wilmington Jour-
nal of recent dates copied the following from the
Philadelphia Enquirer:
"North- Carolina seeded without her own fair
consents her adhesion to the infamous cause has been
lukewarm and partial; many Of her assemblymen
are said t. have shouted for joy when the reduction
of Hatteras was heard Of in Raleigh Hyde county,
some weeks since, declared its independence forty
Ave of her seventynine counties subsequently held
q convention, renouncng treason, resuming their
LOYALTY, and setting up provisional government;
and there is every prospect that the old North
State" as State, will soon pay to Secession her
parting bow, and deal it q discovering and deadly
wound. To show that this movement was no idle
form, or powerless threat read what the Raleigh
Standard said Just previous to the Convention -
4" Unless this increment is stopped at once by the
strong arm Of the Confederate Government more
than half of the counties in this State will be at
tached to the Black Republican Government before
the Union Congress meets" And again: "If We
were to have new election today for the Legisa-
ture and State officers no one Enows amid the present
discord, .ehat state Of things might turn vp."-
Plainly, good management and timely aid may soon
bring that State to fly the tents of treason and stamp
from her feet its poisonous and bloodstaiDed dust"
Now, the Standard never used such language as
that attributed to it in the above extract On
the contrary, We have uniformly maintained that
North Carolina is the most united of all the Corfed
crate States in opposition to Lincolns government
and we have referred to the socalled Hatteras Con.
venton only to ridicule it
Who perpetrated the above forgery We have no
means Of knowing. We do not make this correc.
ton for the information Of our regular readers for
they know that We have never uttered such Ian
guage; but we do 30, lest those who seldom or new
er see our paper may be misled by the extract re.
ferred to.
