The Act TO RESTORE TIE CouRrs.-The 9th sec
ton of this act passed at the last session OF the Leg
.sature provides for two terms of the Supreme Court
to be held hereafter as heretofore but as there IS
no provision in the act that it shall 60 into effect
Immediately, and as the general law requires that
thirty days shall elapse before the act can 60 into
effect it is said to be clear by legal gentlemen with
whom we have conversed, that no term of the Court
can be held in December of the present year.

RALEIGH: FRIDAY. DEC. Ia. 1868.

We publish to-day that portion of Mr.. Lin
coins message which relates 70 the Confederate
States: We do 60 because We suppose cur readers
would like to read. it and judge for themselves.
Without entering into any srganett in reply to any
position of this document We say that "the rebel
lion" were in the condition which Mr. Lincoln claims
which we by no means admit and Il our people we're
reduced to the painful necessity-of reconstruct
ing the old government, the terms OF such re-
construction, rs indicated by TIC oath proposed
would be exceedingly repugnant to high spirited
and gallant people. Teruls of pardon based on an
oath to support certain acts of the federal Congrs
relating to slaves, strike US as strange and absurd
Terms might be imposed with equal reason based
on the support of any otherlaw This, it seems to
u.s. would be an abuse Of the pardoning power, even
conceding as We do not that We are rebels and ask
ing pardon.
Again, the assumption that one-tenta of the peo-
pie of State may shape the action of the State on
question SO vital in its character, is opposed to
the fundamental principle Of the right Of majority
to govern and would if carried into effect, lead to
civil war among ourselves. We tell Mr. LINCOLN
that the people of North. Carolina may be overrun
and physically subdued, but their honor and their
proud port as frcemen they can never sacrifice
They will take no oaths which their State, in Con.
vention assembled, does not require them to take
and whatever may happen, North Carolina will ao'
as State, by majority of her people, and thus
shape her own destiny. Her people would no: rally
around tenth, to do any thing North. earo'in'
NAV be forced to walk through the valley Of hu
millatlon but she would do it in her own proud IN
tegrity, with her garments unstained save by tn
blood of those who, presuming on their phys'ca
might would dishonor and degrade her.
