Much stress is laid by some of the papers ofthis
ing was held at Newborn on the nth Angust-
at which the conservative sentiment in this State
was hailed with qualification. and a determIna-
nensexprSssed 10 prosecute tbs STAR With renew
ed vigor, as the best means practically of aiding
this sentiment and restoring the Union. We do
not know whether this report is true or not, bat
let us grant that it is, and what is the infereneef
II true the yankees regard the Conservatives of
this State as their friends: and regardinc them
IN THIS hgnt, would they take steps TO prosecute
the war with renewed vigor agains them? Is it
not likely they would leave the Conservatives
and Destructlves to themselves, hoping,to gain
more by their dissentions' than they coafd ex-
pect To achieve by appearing i'm their midst in
arms! 1t would certainly be a new thing in war.
and the blindest sort of policy, for friends to
march against friends with fire and sword. The
Home Guard of a number of counties, including
Wake, has just been called ont to meet a threat
ened raid of the enemy. Many of the Home
Guard are Conservatives. Do the newspapers
referred TO believe that these Home Guard Con
servatiVes will meet the Yankees as friends,
RALEIGH STANDARD.
The above is a piece of the most IN
mitigated sophistry We have ever met
with. The Conservatives of North Car
DINA, as a body, are free from any sus-
picion as to their loyalty, and it is a
piece of crafty arti6ce in the Standard
to attempt to include the whole party in
the class that embodies the Union SEN
timent" in North Carolina. The large
majority of the Conservatives, with their
noble Governor at their head, are true as
steel, and will die in the last ditch in de.
f~encesof their homes and their country.
But it is the peace-submission party that
: is distrusted-composed of Union Shrek
: ing conservatives and original secession
lists, and of the latter not a few, who are
holding meetings and passing resolutions
!, proposing a reunion with the northern
government upon any terms they can
n get. These are the persons whom the
: yankees regard as their friends; and il
t, is possible they will not "march agains,
IS (sacA) friends with fire and sword" I
s may be understood shat their property i!
~ to be spared, for we have no information
as to the role between them; and it ma,
tn be that this understanding prompts tn
course of some men. However, we knoy
90 nothing of this; our object is to show u
the subtii reasoning of the Standard, an
;, also 10 say that no one believes th
4" Home Guard Conservatives will met
the Yankees as friends" Some subrni
%sionists may and doubtless will but n
Vance Conservatives.

Mr.. Editor Allow me through the me.
dunn of your paper to call the attention Of
farmers to portion of our hog law as pub.
lished in the GAZETTE Of the 10Th inst. Sec
ton third Of said law makes it legal for any
well or ill disposed person, who may chance
to find hog or sheep on the wrong side OF
the fence, to seize it and pass itover into the
hands of the constable to be sold, Now as
far as hogs are concerned, have no fault to
find. Hogs in the road are always out Of
place--much more so in villages or towns.
The hog must have his grain the year round,
and II at liberty to ramble, aside from the
mischief he does, will waste flesh, or fail to
T! accumulate rs he otherwise would. The
fence that is sufficient to turn sheep will not
turn hogs. Finally, can conceive Of no
reason why sheep and hogs should be thus
classed together. 1t is unfair as it would be
to yoke Horace Greeley with King jeff; Or
Ben. Butler with rebel Lee. 1t is as unnat-
ural mix as goldfish and cabbage. On the
other hand, sheep will do we'll FIVE months
of the year on prairie grass, and hunt it, if
at liberty to do SO; and the balance of the
year they will live on prairie hay. True,
they must be fenced or herded, but fence
four rails or four boards high, properly ad-
justed, will turn sheep, cattle Or horses, but
not hogs. Now I believe sheep to be the
best stock that farmers can have to convert
our prairie hay, straw and corn into cash, or
that that we can use. Weburn up enough pra-
RE grass annually to pay our State debt, and
clothe all of the people comfortably, if con.
verte6 into wool or mutton. Now, gentle
men farmers. you will see at glance that
there is something wrong. How shall we
right it /? know Of no way we can, but to
see to our next Representatives, that he
is sound on the sheep question as well as on
the war. As the law now is, sheep are tax.
ed, and have no rights whatever that a white
man is bound to respect while dogs are free
to roam at will.

FIGHT AT M1LL!KIN's BEso.-There was
fight at the above mentioned place las. Sat
urday, and the latest reports represent it as
a sanguinary affair. The rebels under Nc
Culloch, $500 strong, advanced upon the
Federal forces, composed Of three negro reg
irnents and the 2Sd Iowa Vols. The rebels
made desperate charge at day light. The
negroes broke in confusion, but finding that
their captured comrades were being slaugh-
tered by the rebels, they rallied with great
desperation, and drove the rebels back. The
loss is heavy on both sides.

RESISTANCE TO THE ESRoLLMEHr.-In Penn
sylvania, Ohio, Illinois and Wisconsin, en-.
rolling officers have been killed while in the
discharge of their duties, and others have
been beaten, threatened, their houses burned,
&c. This is the result of the teachings OF
such papers as the Dubuque Herald and
Chicago Times, which have repeatedly urged
the people to resist the draft by force OF
arms. Still, there are men who tell us that
these journals have a constitutional right
to incite and abet the murder of United States
officials in the discharge Of their duty, and
therefore we must not interfere with them,
but allow them to distill their treason at will /;
permit them to urge on the ignorant and
unthinking masses-who take their texts
from such journals as above named Ito forci-
BILE resistance to the war measures of the
Government. The conductors of these sheets,
though they do no overt acts themselves, are
greater criminals, and should receive more
severe punishment, than the miserable dupes
that but do their bidding.
