FROM NORTH CAROLINA.
J. G. WHITE.

NEwBERN, N. c., July 12-Hon. Brad
ford Brown, State Senator from Caswell
County, North Carolina, has taken open
ground for the reconstruction of the
Union 1t is understood, and as much
as admitted by the Raleigh Register,
that majority of her Legislature and
Sovereign Convention concur with Mr..
Brown, but it is thought in Raleigh they
cannot, with safety to herself, throw off
the Confederate yoke, SO long as the
rebel army hold Virginia, or until there
is sufficient Federal force here to sustain
her in such an effort. Hon. John A.
Gilmer and other extensive shareholders
in this State are said to be in favor of
gradual emancipation, u system which it
is understood North Carolina will be re-
quired to accept as the chief condition
of settlement between her and the Fed
eral States.
Later intelligence from the Legisla-
ture now in session at Raleigh confirms
the report that many of its members
have come out for an immediate repeal
of the act of secession passed by the
sovereign convention of this State, and
for the recall home by Governor Vance
of the North Carolina troops from the
Confederate army at once Should
General Lees army be annihilated, or
prevented from reaching this State, the
repeal of this act may take place at any
moment; otherwise matters will remain
as above stated. 1t is said that while
the discussion of repeating the act of
secession was going on disting uished
member suggested foreign war as a
method of cementing the States together,
which was applauded to the echo, all par
ties joining.

the Seioto at Piketon, and was, at last
accounts, moving toward Jackson. Gen.
Hobson was near Piketon following him

EsQRayING OUT THE PRaGRAMME.-It
wiz be remembered that when Vallandig-
ham was nominated by the sympathizers
of Ohio, he was then in the South,
among his bosom friends, the rebels
The Southern press united in eulogies
upon him, and agreed upon programme
that Val should pursue.
This was, that he should get out of the
rebel lines as soon as possible and pro-
coed forthwith to New York or to Can
ada, and there issue an address to the
people of Ohio. He has carried out the
programme to the very letter
He stole out of the Confederacy and
went to Nassau, the great resort of pi-
rates and smugglers, thence he proceed
ed to Canada, from which place he issues
an address to the people.
AS yet we have no knowledge of the
character of the address, but it is fair to
presume that it is in keeping with his
former emanations, Astounding in denun-
Citations of the Government and apollo
gies for the rebellion.
No sens bic man doubts that Vallan-
digham has all along had perfect un-
Outstanding with his friend, jeff Davis,
and is working into his hand

band of horse thieves are prowling about

Some of these are being picked up

"oivo Me Three Grain. Of Corn. Mother ,


In nm old lumber Of the Boston Traveller W,
end the following verses from the pom of Mrs A
NJ Edmons. The Traveller says, "ths above
words are the last request of an Irish lad to hi
mother as he was dying from starvation. She
found three grains in the corner Of his ragged
Jacket and gave them to him. 1t was all he had
the whole family were psrishing from famine"
Give me three grains of corn, mother,
Only three grains OF corn,
II would keep the little life 1 have
TIL the coming of the morn
am dying Of hunger and cold, mother
Dying OF hunger and cold,
And half tn agony Of such death,
My lips have never told.
It has gnawed at my heart like wolf, mother
wolf that is fierce for blood,
All the livolong day and the night beside,
Gnawing for the lack Of food;
dreamt of bread in my sleep, mother
And the sight was heaven 10 see;
I woke with an eager, famishing lip,
But you had no bread for me.
How could I look to you, mother,
How could look to you,
For bread to give your starving boy,
When you were starving tool
For read the famine in your cehek
And in your eye so wild;
And felt il in your bon hand
As you held it on your child.
The Queen has land and gold mother,
The Queen has land and gold;
While you are forced to your empty breast
A skeleton bnbe to hold
A babe that is dying of want, mother,
As ! am dying now,
With ghasty look in its sunken eye.
And famine upon its brow.
What has poor Ireland done, mother,
What has poor Ireland done,
That the world looks on and sees US starVei

Do tho men of England care not mother,

There are rich and proud men there, mother,

THE ASCENDING DEBTOR.
A RACE ON THE ICE.

Tho winter Of 1S-will be long re-
mcmbered for its extreme and endur-
ing cold. / was in the middle of one
Of the most slippery portions of that
rigorous season that transacted, with
one OF the most slippery customers !
ever met, the regular professional bus
mess hereinafter described.
"Good morning, John" said lawyer
Brian, in his dry, slow way. "Let
me make you acquainted with Mr..
Spiggleton, of New Haven; Mr.. Spig-
gleton-Mr Baker"
We testified great mutual delight at
the acquaintance, and lawyer Brian
continued
"Mr Spiggleton is partner in Long
time, Sellomup & Co, merchants of
New Haven. He's como on rather
incorporating business, and I've
told him that YOU are exactly the man
to make every human exertion in the
matter, provided only you have the
time"
And as he gravely and deliberately
uttered thosc words, he winlSod TO me
q professional and confidential wink
with the eye farihcst from Mr.. Spig-
glcton, but without any motion of the
other eye, or any change of feature.
With corresponding gravity, 1 replied:
"Tm much Obliged TO you, Mr..
Brian. But when must we go, and
whither aud how long must we stayp"
"Only to Mi1dletown; but if there's
any thing to be done it must be done
by tonight. You can como back in
the morning"
at don't know, let me look at my
notebook. Why, I'll undertake it il
l can positively como back tomorrow. /"
"Well, I'll leave Mr. Spiggleton
with you for the present. If you'll
Just run into my Office before you go
I'll give yon hint or two; and you
can make the experimental anyrate." I"
So he stalked OF, and / inquired Of
Spiggleton what the business was.-
Being n clear headed business man,
in spite of his prigness and putty-col-
ored complexion, he proceeded to give
me a very succinct statementto tho cf-
feet that a certain John Tupling, keep
ing a country shop, in Chatam, op-
posite Middletown, ont no Connecticut
River, nearly half way from Hartford
to the Sound, but also doing business
in Middletown, and residing there, had
bought large bill of goods of Long

Scenery an1 Hotels.

The forests of the Temperate Zone
when clothed in their luxuriant green
are beautiful, and the broad stretches
of undulating meadows and glistening
streams wake our admiration until we
believe that fairer scenes and brighter
skies nowhere else smile so benignly
unon the favoGM sons of man. But
travel-the greatest geographer and
artist and the truest teacher soon
awakes us to realization of the fact
that all our ideas Of scenery, beauty
and enjoyment are bounded by the
"horizon of our observation" and are
formed undor the prejudices that
always attach to the places of familiar
resort.
Long before reaching Central Amer
lea we discovered that Michigan, with
all her wealth, natural beauty and in
dustry, was not the only place possess
ing similar characteristics and i'll an
increased degree. But when surround
ed by tho deep forests of the tropics
the comparison with all other forests
was senseless. The verdure was fresh
or and deeper, the lichens longer
and richer and tho creeping vines
more abundantly and intricately inter
woven with the gigantic arms of tho
forest trees, the mahogany tree spread
over space eqnal to halfa temperate
zone-forest; the cactus, a purely house
plant here, armed with infntessimal
thorns, there becomes pyramid of
spikes and flowers and verdurc. The
majestic lilly Of the tropics rises erect
and proud into sta tely troe and the
palm and the fern become objects Of
interest and attraction and far above
them oil rises the stately petatoles Of
of the pawpaw and the cabbage treo.
Standing upon the ruins of the old
fort at San Carlos and looking out
upon the broad lake lying westward
surrounded by mountains, cloud-cap'd
and stretching as far as the eye could
reach with every acclivity studed with
the peculiar plants and trees of that
climate-with blue sky above us and
summer sun sinking languidly down
the western horizon--every tic focal
ity, every prejudice rooted ont, we pro-
claimed this the fabled land of FAIRIES
whero all is beauty, peace and happi-
ness. Lazily the waters of this lake
Tapped the sands of the shore, sleepily
lounged the sentry against the door
post of the Governors house and ST.
lence everywhere reigned supreme
save as the faint breath Of the rising
evening breeze sighed among the
groves of orange and lime trees that
grow everywhere in profusion. Here
we sat down, gazing now Mt the beau
tiful sheet of water beneath, and now
at the hidden peaks Of Omatepa and
Cahiah until darkness closed upon tho
scene and restored us to earth and our
hotel.
Hotels are ON institution in oil coun-
tries and especially in Nicaragua
