To Eastern Slave Owners.

We have several times urged upon our Eastern
planters, who may be thrown near the ;nemy's
lines, or who from their probable contguity to the
Yankee forces may be prevented from making full
CROP to remove their force soon possible to the
up-country where large quantities of land are va
can't and where there is enough !aboreis to save
the large wheat crop now soon to be reaped This
is matter of the greatest importance and true pa
triotsm should prompt them to do so, although the
prospect for making money by the operation should
not be so promising.
1t has been suggested to us several times that
there is not enough laborers by many to save the
grain crop now growing, and the scarcity of labor
ers must be greatly increased by the operation of
the new military law, known as the "conscript"
law, which must DO put in force in short time.
The removal of many of the slave population
West if properly employed, would secure an abun-
dant crop of corn and wheat and would remove
them from the temptation to make their escape into
Burnside's lines But the bacon and corn Of the
East at least much of it should be removed with
Them otherwise great want if not starvation might
ensue before the next crop is made. But the re-
moval of bacon and cannot be effected without
the consent and cooperation Of the government
These should be readily extended to our people who
are disposed to adopt plan so important to the
necessary provision for bread and meat.

CHINESE SUGAR CANE.-Have our planters attend
ed to our suggestion some weeks ago to plant large
ly of the Chinese Sugar Gamer We fear it has
been neglected The probable occupation of New
Orleans and the Mississippi cuts off all prospect Of
obtaining sugar and molasses. We said some time
ago that in six months Virginia and North Carolina
would De without sugar and molasses. The proba-
bty is, that in three months neither article be
bought in this State at any price. We therefore
repeat suggestion that the planters cultivate the
Chinese Sugar Cane We suppose seed can be OBJ
tanned Who has the seed for sale?

ave understand that Gen. Burnside announced
sometime since at Elizabeth City, that he was acting
military Governor of North Carolina until the arri-
val of Hon. Edward Stanly, who would act as Pro-
visional Governor of North Carolina under appoint
ment of President LincolnW
We clip the above from the Wilmington Journal
1t is also reported that the Yankee paper at New
bern makes similar assertion. We do not give
any credit to the statement. The authority for it
ought to be better than mere rumor.
We learn that the last information which Mr..
Stanly's friends in this State received from him,
was that he had been arrested in California by the
Lincoln government on account of his Southern
feelings and attachments, and they believe, we I'M
derstand, that he is still under arrest Besides,
notwithstanding the number of Northern papers
received at Norfolk and Richmond, nothing of the
kind has been mentioned Sy them. Those who know
Mr.. Stany ultimately, know that though resident
of California he retains warmly his old attachments
for his native State. He is not of the class of
who could be used to the damage or detriment of
North-Carolna, and we are forced to believe that
the rumor is libel upon his character. We are,
however, inclined to believe that the story has been
made up'by the Yankees in Eastern Carolina. in
order to make capital for their cause there because
of the supposed popularity of Mr. S. in that section

NoRTH-CA RoLlNA FoRCEs.-From communica-
ton made few days ago to the Convention by Ad-
jutant General Martini learn that this State has
organized So regiments, besides s companies on
local service, and 10 companies of artillery unat-
tached. This does not include, however, Col.
Wharton Green's battalion, attached to the Wise
Legion, and various other companies, We presume,
raised iii the State directly by the Confederate gov
crnment; two of the infantry regiments, the 3lst
and Sth, and several companies Of the 18th, cap
tured at Roanoke Island and paroled, and 8 COM
panies of artillery recently paroed at Fort Macon
which cannot be numbered with active force, at
present.
The State therefore, has in service and nearly
ready 81 regiments besides a number of infantry
and artillery companies not organized into regi-
ments, not including the Paroled officers and SOL
diers, or those raised by the Confederate govern
ment in the State. Of these 45 regiments are in
fantry, cavalry and artillery regiments. These,
when filled up to the maximum number, will make
a large army of ITSELF which if skilfully handled,
might defy double its number of Yankee invaders.
