FIRE Low-The order which generals have often
given to their men before fighting began suits the
pulpit not less than the battle field. The mistake
common both to soldiers and to speakers is to shoot
too high over peoples heads, missing, by want Of
directness and plainness, both the persons they
preach to, and the purpose they preach for.-Dr.

MIsMANAGEMENT OF TIE TIrHEs-The following
says the Richmond Wing, is literal extract from

dence, by lady in the country to a gentleman in

manager of large estate, and her suggestions indi

the conflicting SEX" Her good sense and good
spirit are equally illustrated in what she says.
From various sources, we learn that the was
tage, decay and destruction Of the fittings, from
uuskillfulness, negligence and bad conduct, are so
great as seriously to affect the value of that source
Of supplies to our army. The law itself probably
requires amendments in some of its Details but it is
certain that the execution of it demands the most
watchful and rigorous overlooking by the higher
functionaries entrusted with its enforcement. The
following is the extract:
II never heard until yesterday, that we had to
give up tenth of our tobacco to the government
and to nv astonishment learn it is to be sent to
the depots by Tom Dick and Harry. Good, bad and
Indifferent will of course be tumbed into one great
mass, in Indifferent houses to mould and rot. We
who make tobacco know that it requires the atten-
ton of the farmer throughou the winter and spring
to preserve it, and it must be assorted with the
incest care to make it sell. Will you tell me who
is to do this at the depots? And if it possible
to employ careful and proper agents, how much
money would it take to pay them Why not let
the farmers manage it all, as if it were for them
selves; carry it to Market get the best price, and
render up tenth of the money? Self interest would
induce them to get the best prices. Buyers might
be required to give certificates of what they paid,
and sellers of their receipts. Would not this course
save a vast deal of labor and expense? The labor
of taking care of it would fall the farmers, of
course, but it would be great saving to the gov
eminent. Some persons think hard Of the tax, and
many, perhaps will throw the article off their hands,
after careless manner and save themselves as much
labor as possible You know
mankind is unco weak,
And little to be trusted"
There is not honor and honesty and patriotism
enough in this land to trust or expect that all will
do their duty. have seen it stated, this summer,
that the wheat sent to the depots was in such
heat as to be greatly damaged, and have declined
sending mine-have kept it stirred frequently.

and will send it as soon now as possible"

For the Standard.
Mr. HOLDEN Some tine in September the Con-
servatiye party of this county held meeting at
jacksonville, at which large and respectable por-
ton of the people of the county assembled to par
ticipate in its deliberations After the Chairman
and Secretary had been elected, committee was
appointed to draft resolutions expressive of the OBJ
iect of the meeting The committee reported
through their chairman, A. j. Murri, ESQ.,, such
resolutions as in their opinion were suitable and
appropriate 70 the occasion. We deem it unneces-
sary in communication like this, to give even an
out line of those resolutions suffice it to say that
they were lust such as would meet the approval OF
large and overwhelming majority OF the people OF
the county of Onslow. But they were not permit
ted to pass in peace. The opposition OF Desfuc-
tves were on hand to display their gigantic powers
of eloquence, and to roll back with one blast from
the trumpet tongue every wave of opposition which
they might encounter.
Captain Ward was the first to rise in his place
and deliver himself of speech not only against the
resolutions but also against any and all such as
semblages. Those who had the pleasure of hear
ing the Captain can judge of the true merits Of his
effast, and decide whether it was suitable and ap-
proprate to the occasion.
Next came James H. Foy, Commoner from this
county. If friend Foy satisfied himself, sure
every one who heard him was equally satisfied. To
tell the truth We never understood what our repre-
sentative was driving at
MIR. Foy having concluded, John F. Murrili, Esq j,
the Senator from this county, rose and addressed
the meeting in long, but somewhat Gull, argumen-
tative speech. He took the ground that the reso-
lutions were unconstitutional and therefore he was
compelled to oppose them and, like his predeces.
sors, he satisfied himself; every one else could
do as they pleased. Before he concluded he Of
fered as an amendment to the resolutions reported
by the committee, series Of resolutions passed at
O meeting Of the people of Guilford county, but be-
fore any action was taken his motion one OF his
auditors, becoming somewhat dry, began question.
ing Mr.. Murrill about his amendments which crea.
ted some noise and confusion, and the meeting ad'
iourncd until the first Monday in October.
At the appointed time, the meeting was called to
order by the Chairman, when Mr.. Murrill COM
,nenced speaking-and when be concluded, ne
found he had lost or mislaid his Guilford resolu-
tons, which he wished to have passed as substi-
tute for those reported by the committee: But Mr..
Fov had in the meantime prepared series OF reso-
,Iutions which he wished offer for the considera-
ton Of the meeting and they were accepted by MIR:
Murrl.
Mr. Foy then spoke some length upon the merits
of his resolutions and gave his reasons why ne want
cd them to pass The sum and substance of Mr..
Rows resolutions were: Tnat the present war was
lust holy, and righteous-that it was forced upon
Us by the Northern Infdelss-and that we were

Gov. Morehead's Plan.

GOVs mOfchead'S Flans
-Four hundred million ofdollars exempted from ia
alton for thirty gears the interest payable on
sem5-dnnualty too, at the rate of6 per cent!
Why exempt from taxation? What would emf
tie it to that great boon beside the semi annual pa
ment of the interest upon it? Why should the su
scribers to such loan be SO distinguished, and Or
ferred to persons who may be unable to subscrb
to those who have not or cannot spare the means
paying? Is it to prefer the wealthy to the po
man? Is it to exonerate the rich men from TT
payment of taxes and to saddle the whole burtht
Of them upon the poorer classes? We can see I
other result whatever may be the motive or obe,
of the plan.
- What an opportunity for speculation if the so
dMpriacipl3 of gain must be substituted for pair
otism," eyclaims the. Governor. Alas alas hs
it come to this? Has the patriotism of the COME,
eracy sunk SO low-gone to that depth? Are OF
portunies speculation so paramount in the minr
of men? Then all is over with US. Our indepen
dence is an ignes tatuus, and the days of the Con
tederacy are numbered.
But again. Is the city Of Richmond, or of Co
lumbia or any other city of the Confederacy to b
stimulated, its patriotism to be resuscitated onl
by considerations of the character held out to ther
by this plan of Gov. Morehead? Then they do n.
merit independence. They would be Incapable
properly approaching it and of using rightly if a,
quired for them.

have in the Confederacy, cities like Richmond o,
Columbia, welding capital of twenty or thirty
millions of dollars so easily and so speedily acquireo
too, as Gov Morehead has suggested? God in mercy
forbid that either of them, that any city of tn,
Confederacy should ever, by any means or at an:
time become possessed of such an amount! But
cities like Richmond and Columbia may do l. s.
readily in the way suggested BY Gov. Morehead, VIII
may not individuals or companies or associations
men approximate amounts? Would it be we'll fo'
US that they should? far, we think, far far from it.
The Governor, by holding out an opportunity for
stupendous speculation, will, we fear, should Con
gress adopt his plan, have so submerged patriotism
as that its resuscaton need not be looked for. The
rage for speculation, already overwhelming and ir
resistibIe will then have become all engrossing, ali
absorbing. Why administer then so copiously, SC
profusely to what he calls 'the sordd principle Of
gain 2" Why add fuel to fire, that is already con
Stunning us? Must that "sordid principle Of gain u
indeed be substituted for patriotism God forbid
