H We should like to exchange papers
with our contemporaries in this State. So far
as BUR side is concerned we are assured that
no objections will be interposed. That North
ern papers are daily received South, ana
Seutherh papers received North, is fact
known to every body, and why they should be
obtained in such sneaking manner as they
are and regarded with so much awe, we are
unabls to comprehend. It is not expected
that either side will be indiscreet enough to
publish anything that will be detrimental to
heir cause on the contrary it will have the
tendency to make each side more cautious
what they publish than thet would otherwise
be, owing to the fact that they are to exchange
with their enemies. We should like to pub
lish the eneny's account of the battles as they
RAY occur, which will be as interesting to our
readers as our account would be to theirs.
What objection can their be? We are rot
afraid that history will be robbed ofany Of its

Governor SianIy.

| This distinguished statesman, whose name
liz a household word in North Carolina, comes
untrammeled and clothed with authority. Hls
werd is law, hls power unlimited. He bears
the olive branch of peace, and comes on a
mission of love TO his people; people who
have made him what he is, people ron
W HON he sprung, and for whom his angushed
heart is bleeding lie says in his letter which
has been published far and near that he shall
offer such terms as North Carolina can honor
ably accept, such as will be honorable for all
parties concerned. What more can be asked ?
Does North Carolina desire peace and prosper
fity, er does she desire more OF war and misery.
1t is for her to say, and she must accept OF one
or the other She must choose quickly, for as
soon as Richmond falls, this State is liable
to be the battle ground in case she is back ward
in coming to an understanding with the Gov
ernment. In the march southward of the
great armies Of the Republic, they will leave
no rebel force behind them. The State that
harbors an armed force against the Union
must expect TO become battle ground, and
witness all the outrages, miserles and horrors
accompanying bloody
North Carolina Gas done as little to dispcase
the Government as any other rebellious State.
She considered secession from the Union more
Of geographical necessity than any thing else.
That her people were unanimous in secession
40 one believes that a. majority OF forty-five
thousand of her voters were opposed to it,
when the State went out is a recorded fact !;
hat her people are heartily sick Of secession
and anxious to return to her former prosperity,
s generally believed. Mr.. Stanly did not
support Mr.. Lincoln ia the last Presidential
:ampaign. He is not, nor was he ever Re
publican.
He is what he always has been, Henry
Clay Wing, pure and undefiled.
He stands where he has always stood,
'Iupporter Of the Constitution and laws, in
ayor Of protecting the l Cal institutions Of the

As q statesman he has the reputation Of
leing among the ablest and most upright that
North Carolina ever produced. As a an he

ever so alarmed the leaders of the rebellion as
the address in question, and that the few copies
of it which have gotten out among the farmers
in Grayson county, Virginia, have done more
to paralyze the upraised arm of patricide than
a thousand proclamations could accomplish. 1t
is considered by prominent traitors and mem-
bers of the rebel Government at Richmond as
the most insidious and dangerous attack that
has been made upon the permanency of their
new confederation.
And in order TO counteract its effect, and al
so tbstimulate the Southern mind to make new
sacrifices and waste more life in their fruitless
rebellion, all the leading journals in the inter-
est of the rebel oligarchy are republishing all
The speeches of Lovejoy, Sumner, Wilson, Cham
dler, Washburne and other omni-confscating and
omni-emancipating abolitionists. Mr.. Marks
says that nothing helps to revive the dropping
spirits of the rebel soldiery like the reading of
the extreme speeches of those nigger-lovers, and
nothing is used so often and with such complete
success.

PARTIAL DESTRUCTION OF THE srosERs-

PARTIAL DESTRUCTION OF THE STONERs-
TOWN BRIpeE.--The railroad bridge at Stoners.
town, in this county, was partially destroyed by
fire, on the 10Th inst. Says the Mining Regis
ter: Early on Monday, May 10, the Sto-
nerstown Bridge over the Raystown Branch
of the Juniata near Saxton on the Huntingdon
and Broad Top Railroad, 23 miles from Hun
tingdon, was discovered to be OH fire. A coal
train had passed over the bridge short time
previously, and a watchman had crossed over
after it, but no sign of fire was visible, the con-
suming atom which did the mischief having
lodged in an angle of the lattice work Of the
superstructure over one of the piers, where, af-
ter time, it began to ignite the wood and make
a smoke; the smoke attracted the attention of
watchman on the trestle viaduct contiguous to
the bridge, who gave the alarm and summoned
help
John Fulton, Esq, the Engineer of the road
and mines, being fortunately near by, led a
gang of men out upon the structure, and by
sundering the Notwithstanding parts Of the
spans ON fire, prccipitated the burning mass to
the ground below, a distance of ninety feet
from the track to the water.
When the wreck went down, the span upon
which stood Mr. Fulton and his men, was rails
ed up from the pier and loosened by the shock
| Of the rough parting, so that the position was
made one of extreme peril; no accident hap
pened to the little party, however, whose promp-
titude and forethought undoubtedly saved from
destruction all the structure but two spans.
The bridge has five spans, about 100 feet each,
and is something over 800 feet in length; the
length of the two spans burned being 328 feet.
Of the three spans left in place, one is upon
one end of the bridge and two at the other end
The two central spans destroyed will be repair
ed Immediately with trestle work, and by one
week from to-day it is expected that the trains
will resume their trips.
Meantime, work will be prosecuted in the
mines and the coal stored in heaps; hence when
the bridge is rendered crossablc, tonnage will
be hurried forward. 1t is confidently predicted
that within month, the Broad Top region
will send down to market two thousand tons a
day, soon to be increased thereafter to O guam
tity in excess of that limitation.

Extract from private letter to the Editor Of the

WAsulNGToN, May 16.
An intelligent deserter from the rebel army
reports that the Democratic address, which was
lately issued by Hon. VIM. A. Richardson and
other Democratic members of Congress, had
been received in Richmond, through q copy of
the New York Tribune, which had been SNUG
gled into the South for the purpose of copying
its lending articles, in order to further int1ame
the Southern people against the Federal Gov
ernnent
But the unfortunate Wythesville Gazette
knew no better than to copy the address of
Richardson and friends, the result of which
publication was the expression, by many prom
inent citizens, of favorable opinions in reference
to ''thc Constitution as it is and the Union as
it was" And the Gazette was at once suppress
ed, and the further publication of the address
in the seeded States declared reasonable to the
interests of the Confederate Government, as it
tends to q restoration of the Old Union, and
thereby dcmoralzcs the army Of the South, dis
tracts public sentiment, and dssipates that u
nanimity of confidence in the Davis Government
which it is desirable to maintain

WHO ARE THE TRAITORS?

The Republican papers are just now brist-
ling and blazing all over with such epithete a.
''traitor," 'treason," and 'tdisunionist," which
they hurl at the heads of everybody, North or
South, who does not quietly acquiesce in their
bloody platform of the war.
Did not the South warn the North that un-
less 1t ceased to make war upon her institutions,
it would be impossible to remain in political un-
ion with if? Did she not entreat. the North by
the memory of our fathers, and by the common
blood which all sections freely devoted to the a.
chievement of our national existence, to desish
and did she not declare that, whenever Presi-
dent was elected by the northern States alone,
ON the distinctive ground of hostility to the in.
stitu!ions and domestic peace of the South, sho
would feel compelled, i'll self respect, and for
self preservation to cancel the bond of union
which united her to her enemies7 TO what iu-
dignities did she not submit before taking the
last stcp!-How many years is it since we ceae-
ed to treat her as an equal in the partnership
of the Union? Did we not pass laws robbing
her of her constitutional rights relative to her
fugitive ''saves?' Did we not deprive them
OF the right of way in traasitu over one-half Of
our common country? Did we notelcct a Pres-
ident on the avowod platform of locking them
out OF every inch of the common public do
main? Did we not say by this act that we
would treat them as interiors, who shall have
no share in the territorial wealth of our COM
mon country? Nor did we stop here. We
kept up an agitation which renders their prop
crty and their lives insecure. We fosicred q
public opinion which sent John Brown nssas~
sins, and clergymen, and pedd,ers, with KNAPP
sacks and carpet bags, full of strichnins and
pistols, as missionaries to teach the negroes how
to murder their masters Our nothern Sena-
tors held them up as t:tyrants, 'thicves," evil
lains," and "barbarians," in the Senate Cham
ber of the United States! Those in the North
who have for years waged a war upon the Con-
sttution that was framed by our fathers--who
succeeded at last in breaking up the Union
now seek to brand as traitorsthe men who have
resisted their unholy and revolutionary doe
trines. But we throw back the ignominious
words into their own faces, and we tell them
that not only do we believe them to be ths
real traitors, but, as God is our witness, we be-
lieve they will receive the fate that belongs to
traitors, if they madly force upon us war for
the purposes of Abolitionism. IF the bloody
doctrines of Abolition are finally to prevail as
the fixed policy of this government, no white
man, who has not negros soul in him, can
hope to live in peace and safety even in the'
North. If the murderous tempers of the plen
whom Mr.. Lincoln has everywhere placed In
power are to rule us, then we may as well AZ
once begin to fight for our affairs and our homes.
The men who have broken up the country once,
will do it again, and keep doing it, until nel-
ther life nor property viii have any protection,
unees we crush the serpent's head where 1t IT,

A BATTLE AT WINCHESTER.

GENERAL BANKS COMPELLED TO RETREAT INTO
MARYLANp--TnE ENEMY ADVANCING ON
HAEPER's FERRY.
- "AsEISGToN, May 25.-The enemy, under
Gems. Ewell and johnson, with largely supe-
rior force. gave battle to Gen. Banks this mors+
ing at Winchester, commencing at daylight.
Gen. Banks fought them for six hours and then
retreated in the direction of Martinsburg, with
what loss is unknown
The enemy are, it is understood, advancing
from Winchester upon Harper's Ferry. Our
troops there are being rapidly reinforced.
Rumor says that jackson is advancing to tho
support of Ewell and johnson, and there arc
also statements that still another force is be-
hind him. Prompt arrangements have been
made to meet these emergencies if truly repor-
ted.
A later despatch received tonight says that
Gencal Banks has made good his retreat across
the Potomac at Wiliamsport.
General Rufus Saxton is in command at
Harpor's Ferry
