payment OF debts collected under State process 1t
the State should enact that gold only should be
tender in payment of debts what part OF the Con-
stution is invaded? In regard to its debtors, Con-
gress may, perhaps, take in payment whatever me-
dunn of payment il may choose, as the deprecla-
ton of the medium would be remission pro tGnt0
of the national dues: Whether it may honestly dis
charge in such medium its obligations created with
a reference to payment in coin, is question which
foreign nations would soon solve If we should ever
make the attempt to pay any debt to them IN such
currency How it might be with its own citizens;
and whether the rule of honesty would then be
changed is not necessary to be here discussed But,
as fer this State so long as SIZE does not make any
other thing tender but gold or silver, she is free
the air of all other restraint and is not bound TO
look to the Confederate States to guide her financial
policy.
lift be the policy of this State to eschew all bank
and other paper currency there is no power under
the Constitution of the Confederate States to thwart
that policy. 1t would be monstrous, indeed, if the
Conederacy had the power to force the State against
her will to levy her taxes and pay her debts in
deprecated paperl 1t would be the essence-nay,
the very quintessence Of despotism, if the State
could not by reason of any power vested in the
Confederacy, do Justice according to her notions
of right between her debtor and creditor citizens,
by compelling honest ful6ment of promises
deliberately made, when the very purpose of the
Constitution, in forbidding her to make any thing
tender but gold and silver, to compel the State
to do that very justice between them If it be
yielded that Congress may, against the will of the
State, thus impair the honest obligations of its cit
towards each other, and introduce into the
State every kind of paper currency which it may
issue or indorse, having already endorsed onethird
of the banks in the Confederacy, of what powers
and privileges beg to know, are State rights made
OFF In what pray to be informed, consists the
sovereignty of the State? Where shall we find the
independence of State the freedom of its people,
after they shall have surrendered to another the
power of furnishing them willing unwilling, with
a medium Of trade which, by its cheapness and its
being universal tender, will exclude all other
rency; and by Its worthlessness compared with the
money of all other nations will extirpate all CON-
merce, as we'll domestic foreign? 1t would be
difficult to conceive condition more dependent and
degrading to people Boosting of freedom.

Tue YANKEE Administrator Rice, who is mem.
Der OF the Military Committee of the U. S. Senate,
made the following extraordinary statement in
debate last week:
81 do not believe there is man in this Govern
ment in one of the departments to-day that tell
US whether we have five hundred thousand or
million of men in the field not one who can come
within fifty per cent. Of the number of sick and
wounded in the hospitals or with their regiments
One department makes its estimate based on the sup
position that we have one million two hundred thou
sand men in our army; another on the supposition
that we have one million five hundred thousand men
in our army. The simple truth is, that they do NOT

RALEIGH, Feb. 4th, 1863.
Mr.. HOLDEN:- see in this mornings number of
your paper, article, in which you attempt to

it may be that you have been misnformed as to the
remarks which | submitted in the House of Com
mons on Thursday last You say that Mr.. Cobb
took the floor and spoke to the amendment of Capt
Grissom Such is not the case But it is we'll known
to all persons who were present. and are disposed
to do me justice that asked permission to digress
in my remarks, and that l did not speak to the
amendment referred to-as ny contempt for the
amendment such as to induce ME to pass it IN
noticed but my remarks were directed and in
tended, as defence against the false aspersions
which have been made against many of the best
citizens of NorthCarolina. therefore request you
to publish this card. DAVID COBB
