federacy. Its circulation is larger than any
other Journal in the South, and is rapidly in

course received through public meetings from
different parts OF the State, is all the vindica-
ton desired, which should satisfy all that its
utterances are those Of the people. Its columns
are open to the ablest writers in the State,
whose s;atesmanlike arguments against seces
sion are unasswerahle.
Its editor, Hon. w. W. Holden, who caned
the rebel editor Of the Raleigh Register 4 short
time since, threatens John Mitchell. of the
Richmond Examiner, with like treatment.
Intelligence from General Wild's African
brigade, now in South Carolina, states that the

commence, that their discipline is good.
