We are pleased to find in the Charleston Mercury
Of the slst ut, the following merted tribute to- the
integrity of finances, and the gallantry of our
soldiers We trust that this article will not be
without effect in preventing in future the rejection
Of cur Treasury Notes, which has heretofore SO Sc
riously Inconvenience soldiers from this State in
the vicinity of Charleston and elsewhere in South
Carolina:
I'VE regret to learn that considerable inconve-
nience has been felt by the North Carolina troops
now on this coast owing to the refusal Of the people,
in many instances. to receive thCarplina State
currency in payment for purchases. The reluctance
to take this kind of money is, of course, due solely
to the fact that it has hitherto circulated here
and is, consequently, unfamiliar to the of our
population. In point of fact, the No-th-Carolina
notes are fully as good as any money no~ in
lation, and the credit of that staunch old State
stands quite as high as th.t of any other member
Of the Confc'leracy. We hope, therefore, that a
more accommodating spirit may be manifested here.

Of the State will copy:
Resolred, That it be respectfully recommended to
the officers Of the Common Schools and to the peo-
pie of the State generally, to exert themselves for
the adoption of measures for the education of young
men, wounded and disabled in the army, in order
that they may be enabled to pursue the occupation

States to propose reputation Of the national debts
Of their respective governments. The eenversation
grew warm, the room was filled with listening pas

ms, and hopes that "a similar outbreak will be
put down in such a manner that it will never be

These outbreaks are much to be deplored. In ad-
