The CONSERVATION Bill.

We publish correct copy Of this bill, as approx.
ed by President Davis, and as published in the
Richmond Enquirer. We have heretofore express
ed our opinion of this bill, not in spirit of cap
tiousness. but honestly and faithfully, as sentinel
upon the watch tower Of the rights Of the States
and the rights of the people. Now that we have
seen the law, see no reason to change our opin-
ion of its character. Fearful as We are of its ut
mate effects, we can but hope that in its practical
operation the expectations Of its advocates will be
fully realized. The Wilmington Journal in allud-
ing to it, holds the following language:
"These extreme stretches of power can find their
justification only in that kind Of overruling neces
sity which permits man to take human life in self
defence However sufficient the justification, the
necessity must always be a painful one, and the
decision upon it's existence involves deep respon-
sibility. So in this case We must look upon the
action of the law merely temporary, like martial
law. We must look upon its character as not other
wise reconcileable with our ideas Of civil freedom.
But as we submit for tipe to many things, from
sense Of duty and conviction Of their necessity,
60 we will submit to this, when equally convinced
We cannot be SO with our present knowledge. We
cannot say until we hear more, that further know-
edge will not convince rs. ;"

YANKEES IN JONES AND ONsLow.-It is enough
to make ones blood boil over to read the accounts
of the conduct of the Yankees in Pasauotank, Jones'
Onslow and other Counties. Why our forces are

Senator from that County, to Newbern; also, MIR.
Cummings, Mr.. Cbas. Gerock and others. Some
were tied and whipped and carried there. In Ons-
low, they visited the house Of Mrs. Sanders widow
Of the late D. W. Sanders, took her wagons and
mules, loaded them with grain and other things
which they could STEAL made her give up her money
and jewelry, besides committing other brutal acts
And yet we learn that there are three independent
companies of Cavalry in that County, who made no
attempt to drive them out They beard that 1t was

derstood that there only $50. The authorities
ought to put commander over those companies

the last rumor that we hear from It. Col. Robinson

Frenchman from New Orleans, seems sanguine that
something may be done, and he has implored Con-
