contrary did all I could to save both, and that

my hands deny any participation in the matter
I have not couuseiled mobs and I shall never
be engaged in one. I have lostone. Office at the
hands OF the infamous Yankees; if those who
Ought 90 be my friends citizens or soldiers,

From the State Journsl.I
A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.
Il is cur painful duty 90 announces to our
readers and the public the totsl destruction of
he State Journal office, with its presses, types,
figures. paper, and everything else pertaining
70 it, except the sp rit OF the edlter and pro
Hrctar Fa.
2 I bad bsfn sb5snt with my family IN Peters
I burg and Richmond, Virginia, from Saturday
lsvsniug lsst and rejurRsd this morning IN time
20 learn that my Clice had been jsst entered and
destroyed BY a number OF the followers Of the
/ Standard and amongst them some of the en-
Dioyes of the Progress in this-city.
On arriving I learned that on last night
/ body OF soldiers, said TO belong to a Georgia
regiment made an assault on the Standard Office
and did some injury TO the type by scattering
/ them over the fo0r and pitching a quantity into
( he street. Tne extent of this injury I have not
I learned. With this assault on the Office of ths
Standard I had nothing whatever 20 do, nor do
7 svmuetluze with IT, wss not in Raleigh
when it occurred. and bad / been I would have
done all in my power TO arrest it. For this st
tack, however my Office has been destroyed as
above stated. Ny presses, thres in number, are
ruined MY syoas viii tako several weeks TO as
sort aud pat in w0rsing order, if had cases 20
pat them in but al my cases arc demolished.
Everything. in short, is a wreck, sud could not
bs rep8ceG for twenty-five 20 thirty thousand
dollars TAe work of destruction has been skill
fulIy.p performed. p actcsl printers led the de-
stroyeH, and they knew the vital points in
which to strike printing office.
So far az I can learn no arrests Of the parties
engaged IN this sffiir have been made. The res-
son OF this may be imagined by the reader
Their names are known. We presume some
steps win be taken i'm this matter The property
Of course viii be msde good by the city, whose
citizens destroyed it. The number engaged in
destroying the Cffics did not. 1 learn, exceed
twenty most Of them bows. The police force
of the city, it is thought, might with the assist
suce of the law and order portion of the people
have put stop 70 the proceedings. Why did
they not do it7
