Major General Holmes.

The people of North. Carolina will be gratifed to-
learn that Maj Gen. Holmes, of this State, has been
assigned to the command of the Confederate forces
in this department. His experience soldier and
his efficient services rendered in his late command
the Potomac, give assurances that the interests
Of the State will be safe in his hands, Let our brave
men rally to his standard, and let the people every
where render him all possible assistance in provid-
ing for our defence and driving the enemy from our
soil.
The following General Order, issued by him on
the 25th inst, exhibits the spirit with which he
enters upon his work:
"The enemy are before us and must advance at an
early day. If we do not defeat him, North Caro-
lima will be under his than vandal despotism.
Let us all then give ourselves up body and mind to
the sacred duty Of her defence To effect this, the
strictest discipline must be preserved, and the
nanders accompanies, Regiments, and Brgades are
required to enforce the NEST exact obedience to all
orders and regulations. Until further orders no fur.
loughs will be granted nor will any officer soldier
be permitted to leave his camp without permission
from his Brigade commander The most active sys
TEN of drill will be instituted, and every command.
ing officer is held responsible that his command is
ready to march at moments notice."

THE Council OF FIVE IN SOUTH -CARoLINA.-We
referred recently to the action of the Council of
Five Of SouthCarolina, depriving the rank and file
of that State of the right to elect their officers
This act of despotism is thus characterized by the
Edgefeld Adcertiser Of that State:
"It is our duty to tell the truth, when to do 50
is important to the people and not injurious to the
cause of the South. We therefore unhesitatingly
say that the action of the Council Of Five in taking
to themselves the appointment of field and company
officers in all troops to be hereafter raised by South
Carolina, is pre:eminenty and universally condemn
ed in the up-country SO far we have been able to
ascertain. Individuals here and there who can get
Office no other way may possibly approve it; but
the mass of the people, we honestly believe, regard
it high-handed exertion of authority by an Off
cial board, whose creation took them entirely by
surprise, to say the least of it.
1t is not believed that the Council can make bet
ter selection of officers than the men who are to do
the fighting. The men have had the privilege Of
eecting their own leaders thus far in every South
ern State, except as to a few regiments termed
ReguLars 1t is first denied to them in South Caro-
lima. And why? Can the Council appoint better
set of officers than the men have thus far elected
1t will be nowhere admitted"
Certain politicians and military leaders in this
State were anxious to pursue the same despotic
course but they gave back before the action Of the
Convention and the indignant protest Of the people
The people of this State, at least determined,
while achieving freedom, to preserve the means Of
fr,,edo,n

"ArrAcx AT ONCE AND FuRIousLY."-Gen. Ma
gruder in late order to bis troops the Peninsula
says:
"When any body of our troops, large or small,
meets with any body Of the cncmy's troops however
large, the Commanding officer of our troops will
the men will attack at once and furiously. This is
an order easily understood by officers and men, and
will doubtless be obcyed with alacrlty by both"
That is the watchword for the South. We need
the keen-eyed, quick, and desperate movements Of
Napoleon to vanquish the foe. Let every man re-
member that the South demands that every man
shall do his duty.
