short war-norsao / at present see reasons for be
lieving 1t will terminate for eighteen months, or
even year longer than that. But our final sue-
cess is now sure. II we succeed, Confederate
Bonds are the best investment any QUE can have
Besides, measures will soon be taken to add State
endorsements to the Confederate Debt
If so, new bonds will be issued thus endorsed.
aud these bonds will be offered finally in exchange
for the present eight per cents. la such an ex
change, the present bonds will be worth from
fifteen to twenty per cent above par-so that If
the guaranteed bonds sold to other parties for
fifty per cent premium, they wifi be sold 10 those
having the eight per cent bonds at ool, thirty 20
thirty-hre. Under such circumstance one who
now buys Confederate eight per cent bonds will
get for them not only an interest of eight per
cent, but also in two years n premium Of ifteen
or twenty. Adding this to the interest the owner
ot these bonds will make on them, fifteen 10
eighteen per Gems: year for two years and then,
if he chooses sell them for a currency better than
he now pays for them; or if he prrfcra, get in
stead of them guaranteed bonds at less rates than
Others. Another induccment to buy Confederate
Bonds Is, that as soon currency is properly
improved, (and the prospects Of this are brightly
the Confederate Government will pay its interest
in specie. And still another reason u connection
with this is, that if the Government pays out
specie for interest on its bonds, il will require
taxes to be paid in specie. Those who hold ths
bonds will have spree enough frountbe interest OF
their bonds to pay their taxes, but Others will
have to buy the specie for the taxes, at whatever
may be charged. As long rs we hold Confederate
Bonds, We need not be afraid Of taxes parable in
specie, but those who do not hold them are oon.
stantly in danger.
In what have said aboYe, I have gone on the
suppostiOn only Of the value Of these bonds while
the war lasts. The very moment we have peace,
their value as compared with Others will be greatly
enhanced. In truth, every other kind of seeurty
will then 60 down, and these bonds will rise III

OFFIcERs.-A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Sunday Dispatch states that there is not shadow
of doubt that their officers have been f'picked
OUT and shot by their own men on the battlefield,
in numberless instances, to crafty private grudge
"a staff officer, in conversation with me on this
subject, says the writer, "stated that he had been
informed by surgeon, who had gone over the
battle field at Antietam, that he had found to his
great horror and surprise that nearly all the
officers killed were wounded from behind.'
They were either shot by their own Soldiers,
OF by the Confederates while skedaddling.

RECONSTRUCTION.

The telegraph gives US an idea of the speech of
the,new Governor Of New jersey in his inau.u.
raj. Like Seymour and Vallandig ham, he goes for
| reconstruction. This might be expected. As
soon as the Yankees have been forced to consider
the necessity for peace, they will Of course seek
the best terms they can, and could they cajole us
back into the Cnion it certainly is their policy to
do So That they can exist prosperously without
the South we have never believed, aud their arro-
gance has never allowed them until now to con-.
| template SCI arate existence They have preyed
upon us SO long that they have consid, red in
fact subjugated comme REALLY and now that their
eyes are opening to their true situation, that OF
dependence upon the South for the support of
their manufactures, it is reasonable that they
should talk of Cancellation. Their pecunary inter
ests are all they consider politically they value
no other principle, aud have proved this by their
conduct in the contemplate sacrifce of every thing
they once professed to recognize principle.
Reconstruction! tie idea is horrible to the
Southern ear. Is it within the bounds Of pos
sblity for any Southern man to tolerate its Shall
dos1late hoarths and homesteads DESTROYED by
the ruthless invader be ignored? Shall mothers
and wives and daughters. insulted and grievOusly
injured, be forgotten? Shall our fathers and bro
theirs and sons lingering in cold, damp vaults cal
e prisons, be neglected and left to the villanous
to1tures of Lincolnism? Shall every principle dear
to the patriot, ignored and rejected by fanatic
people, be set aside and abandoned, when we have
been struggling to defend them and fix them more
permanently Liberty and independence forbid
it! We have achieved our independence in the
eyes of the world, however slow they arc to recog
nize it, and intend to establish it on the basis
of equality with other nations and no Cancellation
with the depraved States of Lincolndom can ever
again be tolerated By people determined to be
free.
A volume might be written on this subject, but
we forbear. If nothing else had oecured-if tho
bloodshed and destruction of our most valued citi-
zens and their dearest rights If the loss Of pro-
perty aud persons could be restored, even then a
great gulf exists that never be filed up. Lin
coins proclamation destroying, far AS in his
power, the confidential relations between the own
er and the slave, can never be atoned for in a
construction Government. That proclamation
stands before the world the final blow that sew
cred forever the late United States. 1t isthe cup
dc grace of the late Union and the tolerance ofthe
idea of reconstruction after that, would be the
death knell Of our peculiar basis of existence as
people. Let the Yankees feel the necessity of
peace, and they will ere long find themselves fore
ed to recognize the Southern Confedeiacy.-Col-'
unibia CdroliHian.

their Alma Mater.
Tn the year 1928 he was elected member of
the North Carolina Senate from the County OF
Lenoir, position which he filled much to the
satisfaction ohs constituents that he was reelected
for period of ten years
The history of Gov. Moseley since his residence
in Florida is too we'll known to need comment. AS
the first Governor Of Florida under the State
Constitution, and in other positions of honor and
usefulness, he exhibited administrative talent
of high order. blended with an untirng energy
of character and clear aud comprehensive
intellect.
He has lived to ripe old age, and has been
gathered to his fathers, leaving behind a memory
of his deeds and noble traits of character which
will not soon be forgotten by the many friends
ard acquantances who survive hm.-Er. Paper

from this State number Of years, he always
manifested deep interest in her welfare, as We
