The Virginia Dictatorship.

70 We are not surprised to find the Raleigh Regis
ter following the lead of the Richmond Enquirer in
its attempt to dictate to the people of this State
The instincts of the Register are all that way
The Register characterizes the ten regiment bill
as "disgrace to the State" 1t says it is "pGz-
zed which most to wonder at its a0ickedHess or ats
consummate tolly." The Register, it will be seen,
is an apt scholar of the Enquirer. The latter pa
per charges treason on portion of the members of
our Legislature, and says there is "plot" in
Raleigh to break the unity" of the common gov
eminent The Register says amen to this, and de-
clares to the world that the State has been dis
graced" "Dsgraced" by what? Why, by sim
pie effort to raise troops to repel the invader Vir-
ginia, Georgia and South Carolina have done this
very thing and yet the Enquirer and Register have
not even noticed their action. Why this hectoring
this abuse towards North Carolina and this silence
in regard to other States, who have done what she
attempted to do The reason is obviouS,-North-
Carolina is Conservative State, and the papers
referred to are seeking make party capital out of
her conduct as sovereign State. These papers,
and those who control them, "liye, move, anG
have their being" party. They never draw breath
outside of or above party.
We deny that North Carolina has "disgraced"
herself or broken faith with her co-States that
the ten regiment bill, as charged by the Enquirer,
is an "outrage." North Carolina has never yet
"disgraced" herself or broken til, or "plotted
against her allies; and they who say that she has,
are her enemies, and calumnators of her character.
The following extract from General Order No. %,
of the Adjutant General of South Carolina, will
show that that State has eight regiments Of reserves
in the field on her own coast:
1.-THE Second Third, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth,
Ninth and Eleventh Regiments of the Corps of Re-
ported for duty, and sufficient time having elapsed to
afford all persons desiring exemptions for their oveSeers
opportunity present their applications this office,
after this date application will be considered acted
for the exemption of persons overSeers who are
liable to duty in either of said Regiments"
And the following extract from the Savannah Re
publican, of the proceedings of the House of Rep
resentatives of Georgia, on the 18th of last month
will show that the two regiments recently author
lied by the Georgia Legislature to be raised d.
reetly out Of those subject to CONSUMPTION. The
| Republicans correspondent says:
In the House, this morning, motion made to re-
consider the bill to organize two regiments of State troops
Mr.. Lee favored the motion, the ground that State
troops will effect unnecessary and runuS expense upon
the treasury. Capt Burke opposed the notion Judge
Love favored the notion for the purpose OF adopting the
original BILL which would take the troops from those not
subject CONSUMPTION Mr.. Stephens opposed the motion
the President the execution of the COnscrIp law. The
motion to reconsider was lost"

The Rider on the Right Horse.

The charge made'by the Richmond Enquirer ana
The Destructives against the Conservatives of the
Legislature that they designed to bring this State
in conflict with the Confederate Government by the
passage of the ten regiment BILL is sufficiently met
and refuted by the publication Of the bill ITSELF But
we design to make the case still stronger, and snow
by undenable evidence, that if at any time any
party or faction in this State has shown dlsPos-
ton to thwart the Confederate Government IN pro-
scouting the war to risk conflict with it 1t has
been the Destructive party.
From the issue of Lincoln's proclamation in April
1861, down to the present day, the Conservatives OF
North Carolina have been most active and energetic
in resisting the Lincoln tyranny and in prosecuting
the war to speedy peace. By far the greater por-
ton of the volunteers from this State in the Con-
federate army are Conservatives. Most Of them
are of the rank and fle-few of them ever having
been promoted to Office except by the privates
themselves. Those of them who have staid at
home have given more money, clothing, &c, to sup
port the war than the Destructives, The Destruc-
tives have mainly enjoyed the shade Offices, while
the Conservatives have done the fighting and poured
out their money. The most unconscionable specu-
lators and extortoners upon the necessaries of life,
which has so damaged the South, have been De-
structives. We speak of what we know in North
Carolina. Let the Richmond Enquirer dispute it. if
it dare.
But more than this. 1t is well known that the
Conservatives have always advocated the raising of
troops by volunteering, if need be, by the draft
They have always insisted, that as soon as troops
aoer6 raised and organized, they should be trans
Jerred to the Confederate Government as the CON-
mon, constitutional agent for carrying on the 1car
The Destructives of North Carolina have opposed
this bitterly and strongly. 1t is well known that
after the ten regiments of State Troops raised
here that the Destructves of the State Convention
opposed with might and main their transfer to the
Confederate Government. To the Conservatives of
the Convention is the Confederate Government in
debted for the transfer of all soldiers, arms &c.
The Desructves were anxious to keep the ten regi-
ments of State Troops under State CONTROL in order
to promote the interests of their faction by appoint
ing their avorites to Office and for other purposes.
The Conservatives were immovable in their deter
mination to make the transfer, which was demanded
by the good faith of the State to the common Gov
eminent and by the Constitution, and they sue
ceeded. Let the Enquirer deny this, if it dare.

The Situation.

If one can Judge of the present posture OF our
,;rs from the statements of the press and our re-
0rt successes. the prospects of the Southern Con-
fdoroc have not been so bright at any period since
the war began no
Gen, Lee has certainly blocked the "on to Rich
,,ond" game by the way of Fredericksburg. Ills
army on the Rappahannock is lnVlnclole ana can
successfully resist three times Its numbers, per-
L.rs Nor do we think any direct advance upon
Richmond from any quarter could be successful
nh. fnrce al Suffolk and vicinity may be so aug
nented as to damage US greatly, and possibly oe-
,o masters of the Railroad leading to Petersburg,
t tbe activity and valor of our forces and skill OF
r Generals will prove an overmatch to any attempt
which can be made to reduce Richmond.
Of the movements of the enemy in Eastern North
raroI;D, nothing has TRANSFERRED since Foster re-
.,.u,,ol 70 Newborn from which an opinion can be
frned of his future movements. We trust, how
eyer our commanders are sufficiently awake to be
prepared for him at all points
At Charleston everything seems to be in readi-
-oss for the enemy. Gen. Beauregard made the de-
claration the other day, that he was prepared to
meet the enemy at any point on Carolina SOIL
To the West, all eyes are turned for the present
for stirring events On the S0th of December the
forces under Gen. Joe Johnston on our side, and
those of Rosencranz of the Abotionists, were with
in half mile of each other, within few miles of
Nurfreesboro', Tenn. Our forces were confident of
whipping Rosencranz. Ere this, perhaps the battle
has been fought, and trust Goo has given US the
victory The operations of Morgan and Forrest re-
Gently have so far been severely damaging to the
Yankees 1t is understood that Morgan had pos
session of the railroad between Nashville and Louis
vile.
Gen. Van Dorn's operations around Memphis
have been signally successful.
The enemy's operations to reduce Nicksburg are
of the most formidable character, but at last ac-
counts he bad been repulsed at all points Mean
while our troops are in fine spirits. We trust that
yicksburg, gallant Vicksburg, may be as success
full in resisting the foe again.

Late Northern News.

Every where Encouragement and disappointment
are observed in the tone Of the Northern press
The severe defeat at Fredericksburg has produced a
most proloundHmpression.
The operations of the enemy in the East give the
North but little indication of success, and We OBJ
that its calculations upon success in the West
are spoken of as dubious. The Herald speaks as #
defeat is more TO be looked for in Tennessee and
Mississippi than success.
1t is believed that Lincoln will veto the bill crea-
ting new State out of the northwest of Virginia
Attorney General Bates has given decided opinion
against its constitutionality.
All accounts agree that Lincoln is determined to
staud by his emancipation proclamation. 1t is I'M
derstood that he would issue another on the 1st nst
ind eating the States and parts of States in which
slavery is forever outlawed II So according to the
HeraMs declaration, it would Seem that Seward
will not remain in the Cabinet.
The Northern press evidently fear that since the
defeat at Fredericksburg France will certainly move
towards interfering to stop the war.

For the Standard


Mr. HOLDEN Il beg, Sir, to write you as a sim
woll- wishcr to the cause you advocate-State
sovereignty and popular government The policy
of the Destructves after having led us into the ca
amities of civil war-call it instruction, rebellion,
revolution, or what you WILL its effects are the
same-would now be inclined to cast us under the
wheels of their Juggernaut-tO break that proud,
daring, indomitable spirit which has borne our sons
over the hardfought fields of Manassas, Bull Run,
Bethel, Boonsboro' and Sharpsburg to say nothing
of the seven days battle around Richmond
The DESTRUCTIVES "a capital name should
be put in capitas) are tremendously indignant that
there should be- a party in the State more power
full than themselves. Let us be as indulgcnt as
possible to their petulencies, for do think it would
be their heartfelt wish to get lip some fiSsy excuse
