Every dollar pledged by the State to the officials
here in Raleigh, is promptly paid, whether they do
much or little service Some of these officials too,
it is said have been purchasing from the government
coffee sugar, molasses, and the like at government
prices while other people as good as they are, are
paying high war prices for these articles. Governor
Clark receives $4,000 per year, his two Aids some
s., 500 each, and General Martin some s., 900 or
$4,000 The State pledged itself to pay them these
salaries and they are receiving them; and yet the
poor soldier who is over thirty five years of age to
whom the State has paid fifty dollars bounty or is
pledged to pay it, is required to lose this bounty
and is sent home penness at his own expense =
And this in violation of an ordinance of the Conven-
ton.
By the way, as Gen. Martin attends to all militia
~ matters, what does Gov. Clark want with two
Aids? That functionary, in his sudden zeal for saw
ing money, might dismiss one or both'of his Aids,
and thus save some four or five thousand dollars per
.nnum, without practicing his small economy
at the expense of the soldiers and in violation OF the
pledged word of the State. -H

N. C.. State Bonds.

North Carolina State Bonds at 6 per cent, are
quoted in Richmond at Is and 120 per hundred dol
lars. Sales have been made at ls9, we suppose paya
BILE in Confederate bonds. Why is this Many Of the
camorous out and out old secessionsts are getting
off Confederate bonds at low rate. They ready
to invest them in real estate at high prices. What
more certain method of destroying public confidence
in Confederate notes than to depress them in the
stock markets Many of these holders Of Confede-
rate notes and spectators and agents
for the government who are throwing their hats up
for the war; but who take special care to nothing to
promote it. A horde of Jews and Gentiles, perfect
blood-suckers, have preyed upon the public Treasu-
ry, and now they are ready to play the same game
upon the people.

One of the most ridiculous fbs of the day is, that
the conservatives are responsible for the present
war. Original secessonists, many of whom are
alarmed almost out of their skins, and who keep at
a prudent distance from Burnside and Mcclellan,
are saying that Holden brought on the war! Why,
Holden did all he could to prevent it. He told the
people if the Yanceytes were allowed to have their
way, war ,oouM certainly tollou The prediction
has been verified He said also, that those who
were most camorous for secession would be the
last to smell powder. Is not that SO? These peo.
pie have been smelling out the Offices, and the fat
salaries, and specializing the necessities of the
poor; but they have mortal aversion to gun
powder and cold STEEL Of course there are excep-
tons, and we honor the original secessionst, who
when the fight commenced, said come boys, instead
of go boys. No, the war was brought on by the
abolitonists of the North and the original secession
lists of the South, in spite Of all the efforts of con-
servatives in both sections to prevent it. When
and sohere will it end?

MILITARY HOSPITAL NEAR RALEIGH.
Nix. HOLDEN 1T appears that there is much un-
just prejudice against the general military hospital
near Raleigh, based upon unfounded rumors; and as
am connected with that institution, feel it to be
my duty to state that the hospital is well conduct
ed 1t has been charged that proper attention is not
given to sick soldiers, and thatthe dead not pro-
perly and decently buried. Nov, Sir, speak from
observation when I say, that the Superintendent,
Dr. Burke h asyweod is constant kind sn din ed
neglect is allowed which he can prevent These in
furious rumars against the hospital have operated to
prevent sick soldiers from agreeing to be taken to
the hospital and thereby suffering has been occa-
stoned to these soldiers and some Of them have died.
l trust, Sir, that those who talk against the good
management Of the hospital will visit it and judge
for themselves. Let justice be done, and let sick
soldiers no longer be deferred from going to the
hospital for treatment. By publishing this you will
oblige W. n. BRAGG, Chaplain.

Richmond is still where it was at last accounts
but Mcclellan is nearer to it and so is our army un

skirmish took place Saturday near the Meaao"
bridge, over the Chckahominy, also near Ne"
Bridge miles from the city. The particulars are
not given.
On Sunday every thing was quiet until the at'er'

fight is now imminent Matters, however, look very
little as if Richmond was preparing for SERGE so
far as we know the women and children have not
been removed-but few of the citizens have volun-
teered to defend the city, and traffic and trade still
rush on.
The army is said to be in high Spirits and the
citizens are either confident caous The anxiety
everywhere is intense, and everybody asks, why
docs not Gen. Johnston fght? The truth is, West
Point has no confidence in volunteer troops, and
Johnston appears to be waiting to get his forces
hemmed in on all sides, so that they must fight or
surrender Let the public be prepared for any
thing-a fight or foot-race. One thing the people
know absolutely that ouI troops will fight if John
ston will let them, unless he worries them by re-

been moved to the South side of James River.
The rumors so brief in the City for day or two
that Gen. Jackson had fallen upon Banks column
and routed it with great loss, and that Mcdowell
had returned to Washington, seem to have no prop
er foundation. Gen. Shields had joined Mcdowell
with his force. Gen. Jackson had attacked 800

Injustice to the COnventiOn.

AuJuSACC " eAO SVAsOAsAoAs
correspondent writes as follows to the Noun
tain Eagle, from Goldsborough:
1.-THE Convention-the immaculate of the State
became alarmed at the large number Of soldiers col:
lectcd at Raleigh, and they would not be satisfied
till we were moved"
The above Is from a soldier, who has been impos-
ed upon and misled by inscriptions partizans in
this City. We need not say that the statement is
totally unfounded.
The truth is, the Convention has been, from the
first the fast friend Of the soldier. That body pass
ed the law to allow the soldiers to vote in camp: 1t
also passed the law to provide for the wants of SOL
diers-food and lodging-while temporarily detain'
ed in the various towns near Railroad depots. It
also passed the law giving fifty dollars bounty to all
volunteers and conscripts Is all this nothing?
We know where the above charge against the
Convention originated 1t is the result Of rumors
started in this City by the owners and publishers
of the State organ. And these same persons no
doubt started the report among the soldiers at Camp
Mangum, that the Convention was about to pass an
ordinance to take North Carolina back into the old
Union IAN infamous lie, of course, and thing not
at all thought Of by the Convention. But the pa
per referred to, and the Wilmington Journal the
Winston Sentinel, and other papers of the same
stripe, have labored systematically for months to
render the Convention odious and they have done
so simply and solely because majority of the Con-
vention is conservative in its character and opposed
to their selfish and ruinous party schemes. The
papers referred to, and those for whom they speak,
were instrumental in secondary sense in breaking
up the old government, because they were about to
lose the Offices and spoils and they would now de-
stroy any thing which might stand in their way, in
their insatiate greed for place and power. These
persons are destructives If they had lived in
France in the days of the French revolution, they
would have been Dantons and Robespieres, or the
minions Of such men. They can abuse better men
than themselves, and misead and Deceive the honest
and worthy, who have butlitte time to inform them
selves in politics. but they take care to HE on the

Tom is certainly the finest performer on the piano
ever heard. He plays the most difficult operate
pieces brilliantly and beautifully. To know as your
correspondent does that Tom is only thirteen years
old, and that the development of his musical talent
is entirely accidental must be startling to every
one. Ali professional music men say that Tom is a
perfect musical genius. Wherever he has per-
formed, with the exception of Wilmington, the
presses have gwen him the highest kind of eulo-
gums, but | suppose there are exceptions to sll
things, and our friend of the Journal not knowing
the difference between lady behind big drum,
and man sitting stool before the piano, can't
certainly know the difference between good and bad
playing. The editor of that paper in attempting to
criticise something he knows nothing about, COM
pares man playing the piano to lady behind q
big drum, with fiddle drawn up to her ear, saw.

not have thought that there was the least wit in
this, and am confident no one ever heard such a
nonsensical comparison. have been thinking if
