South Carolina. and probably other States, have
only taken such as the Conederacy DID not want
IL Is mucn more certain that they have Kept back
such as the Contederacy demanded-for it is said
that not asingie State in the South execu;ed the
conscrpt law except North Carolina, and she did
execute it to the letter. Georgia and South Caro-

has already done, she ought to do it-but she must
be the judge. If all that can be raised is due to
the common cause, then Virginia and the other
States must give up their reserves"
But it is asked, why does North Carolina want
any State troopsp Why not rely with confidence
| on the general defence2 / answer, that Nc have
condded, and do eonfide. But our confidence has
been abused-I will not say Intentionally. North
| Carolina has had no place besile the Commander
| in-Chief Our claims may have been ousrlooksd,
because there was no one by to pull his sleeve. But
that is not all. Mr.. Davis is but man. The EH-
quarer, his organ, says that he does not renen.
Der, or care fig, about former party distinctions"
And yet, in thousand appointments to efhce, 1
challenge the Enquirer to count ten who were not
| of Mr.. Davis former party" concede that this
may have just happened so" 1t is said that this
world was never made on purpose, but just happen
ed so! believe that Mr.. Davis is SO thoroughly
pa:tizan that he does not recognize, and in that
| sense, may "not remember" any but his own.--
And as North Carolina is denounced by the organs
of his party in this State and by his own organ at
his elbow nimical to the South and has so late
| ly been denounced by his pet General Winder, as
"a nest of damned traitors" it may be, and, truth
to say, believe it will be concluded to be well
enough to let her suffer little for her temerity.
Why do other States want State rcservesi Why
not turn them over to the Confederacyf Is it an
