CoULD'NT BE BRIBED.-We learn from the
Bristol Advocate, that q deserter and spy,
by the name of Harris, who came into East
Tennessee with the Yankee force that burn
ed the bridges, was captured near Jonesbor-
ough, recently, with a commission of Captain
in his pocket, bearing the imposing seal of
Andrew johnson, Governor of Tennessee
Private Philip Warlick, of Col. Loves N. G.
regiment was detailed as guard to deliver the
prisoner to the authorities at Knoxville
Harris offered Wallick $4,000 to allow him
to escape. The honest North Carolinian in.
dignantly informed him that Lincoln's gov
eminent had not money enough to bride him
to the performance of such a dishonorable
action. Such is the metal of the true South.

THE Cry FOR CoRN.-Bread will be a Sc
rious question in many. sections of the State
before another crop is made. And strange
to say, while the Spectator, extortioner and
dishonest manufacturer, can get his wares
over the various lines of transportation, not
a barrel of corn can be transported for love
or money, though the wives and children of
soldiers cry for bread. Better stop mails, trav-
Ell and everything but soldiers and their pro.
visions, and take corn frcn the overlooking
cribs of the East to our friends in the West,
than leave it where it is for the enemy, and
the poor to starve. The Iredell Express
says:
1t is absolutely proper and demanded
that some action should be taken to bring a
supply of corn for the use of this County,
from the South without delay. Spectators
have raked the country around and bought
up and sent off almost of every description
of food to make money, until there is danger
of starvation even before the beginning of
Summer. We have recently made a circuit
through the upper portion OF lredell and
several of the adjacent counties, and know
what We say to be true.
Corn is now selling in South Carolina for
81 80 per bushel, but will get dearer. We
observe that the people are bringing cotton
South, in large quantities, to make more
money, but we have not yet seen the first
sack of corn to feed the families of our SOL
diers and others.

Gen. French's Reply.
WELDON, North CAROLINA, !

WELDON, NORTH CAROLINA,
January 9th, 1868.
Major General j. G. Foster, U. S. A,
commanding 18th Army Corps, New
bern, n. Carolina:
GENERAL: / have the honor to &C
knowledge the receipt of your communi-
cation of the 3lst ultimo, and a copy of a
letter addressed to you by Edward Stanly
who signs himself Military Governor of
North Carolina.
In relation to prisoners of war who have
been paroled, ] can say never to my
knowledge have they been, nor have |
ever heard of their being employed in the
performance of any duty for the Govern :
ment. AS my Government has so faith
fully respected the parole of prisoners, I
am the more astonishcd that you should
have brought a merely heresay rumor
that came to the ears of the Raleigh
Standard, to my notice, when an order
was issued from the War Department Of
the United States, requiring, as | re-
member, paroled prisoners to instruct
recruits, garrison fortre>ses ir the rear o
the army, and guard prisoners.
While OH press, as the extract you senc
nc shows, would denounce such violation
of a parole of honor, [ have seen your
teeming with the demand that the prise
ners that we had captured and paroled
should be sent to Minnesota to repel tn,
Indians there at war with your people.
You ask me to answer, whether tn
acts complained of by Governor Stanl,
have my sanction, and whether, as he de
sires to know, the negroes mentioned vii
be returned to their master His allega
ton is that " our forces recently invade,

The Battle at Murfreesboro',.

The Richmond Enquirer Of the 10Th inst,
says:
AS the enemy's reports cf the late great
battle of MurireesbOro' cone to land, the
extent of Gen. Bragg's victory becomes more
apparent. All the boosted dispatches that
RosencranZ may write Can never recapture
the prisoners, arms and artillery carried OIL
by Gen. Bragg, nor rebuild the wagons burnt
by Morgan and Wheeler. These substantial
evidences of victory attest how well the gal
liant Bragg accomplished the work, and prove
that though compelled to yield the battle
field, he did so at his own time, and in the
perfect order of a General no, for 6is own
good reasons, prefers resting his exhausted
troops to risking the hazard OF another days
battle. The battle of Murfrcesboro', both to
General and to men, deserves TO be ranked
among the great battles that have shed their
lustrc over the Conf, derate States. If it was
not as successful as desired, it was neverthe-
less more destructive than it at first appear
ed, and has put gan end to all advance of
Ros, ncranz, if it does not result in compell-
ing him to seek safety nearer his base at
Nashville.
This victory is by far the most complete
won by our arms in the Southwest. We do
not regard the falling back of General Bragg
as detracting the least from the glory of our
arms or the importance of our victory. 1t
is impossible to form a judgment upon this
victory except upon the statement OF Gen.
Bragg and the reports of the enemy. But
from a comparison Of these sources Of infor-
matior, Notwithstanding the letters of Rosen'
cranz to Halleck, and Halleck to Rosencranz
the facts are fully made out that the enemy
will be ruined by one more sach victory al
that claimed at MurfrecSbQro.
