THE PRESIDENTS PRocLAMAr1oN IN
NORTH CARoLIA.--The Manchester (N
H. Ame1ean, of the 14th inst, contains
the following:
A gentleman by the name of James NJ.
Smith, native of the eastern part of this
State, has just arrived in this city. direct
from the interior of North Carolina. He
has resided in that section for the last
seven years, and had previously lived 8
years in other parts of the South. He
escaped to the Union lines at Newbern
MIR. Smith states that the Proclamation of
President Lincoln has produced the great
est CONSERVATION among the large slave
holders of that portion of the State. In
deed, so great is their terror that large
body of them have united in petition to
the Governor, imploriug him to use his
influence with the Confederate Govern
ment to secure the return of the troops
belonging TO that State, in order that thew
may be protected from a slave insurrec-
ton, which they believe to be imminent.
The Governor has also been requested 10
call convention of the people, to take
measures to bring the State back into the
Union, that they might avail themselves
of the offers contained in the proclama-
tion. He says that as soon as it was
known that the proclamation had been
issued, measures were taken to prevent
any more of the soldiers, raised there by
conscription, from leaving the State. He
is of the opinion that in very short
time the proclamation will be known TO
the slaves in every nook and corner of
the State.

A Maryland correspondent Of the Phil
adelphia Press says that Gen. Mcclellan
has been opposed to making any advance
until spring, and that nothing but the
advice Of the President and the urgent
demand of the American people has in
duced him to arrange his plans for NOV
ing upon the enemy. If we believed
that Mcclellan has been seriously in fa-
vor of going into winter quarters, we
should certainly give him up as a hope
less case. But we believe nothing of the
sort.
At any rate, we presume it is now a
settled fact that the Army of the POto-
mac will move upon the rebels, and move
soon. Certainly it should move soon, for
October is drawing to close, and rains
and deep mud usually come with the
coming of November. We expect bat
tie in few days, aud, if one takes place,
il will be terrific beyond all parallel in
this war. Considering the immense mag
nitude of the opposing forces and the
momentOus importance Of the issues in
yolved, we can of course look for nothing
but struggle most desperately contested
on both sides. Neither side can afford
TO be beaten. To us defeat would be q
terrible thing to the rebel COnfederacy
it would be death. Let the shock come
If our army is victorious in the pend
ing battle, we trust that the victory will
be a whole one. We have had quit
enough half. yictOries--enough issuel
from which nothing issued-too many
results from which nothing resulted
We have a right to expect that no Gen
Miles or Col. Tom Ford of Harper
Ferry will figure in the next great fight
but that the rebel army will be routel
and pursued and pressed upon until ever.

with several Of these men, and they are
little disgusted at the result of what
deem in many cases was a bit Of braga
docia for there were but two hundred
aud forty odd who reported for exchange
out Of the many thousand rebel soldiers
who are now in citizens dress walking
about the streets of this city, and in
large number Of cases getting their living
from the Government authorities. for
you viii observe that in the last official
publication of provisions distributed by
the United States authorities, there were
nine hundred families Of acknowledged
Confederate soldiers receiving relief. The

quering a city and then feeding the peo-
pie, finds no parallel in history. We have
