CoNNEcTIcUT-Mr Thomas Ii. Seymour, the
Democratic candidate for Governor of Connecticut,
concluded speech delivered in the City Hall at
Hartford, on thu 9th of February, as follows:
These popular uprisings are not merely special
in their character but broad and general the uni
versal air, and sweep, with the wings OF an arch
angel, the vast horizon Of administration and of
horrible battle fields. The true meaning of this is
that the people arc sick of this horrible iratrcida
war, and demand that it shall be speedily terlnina
ted avow myself opposed to it, and ask for a ces
saton ofhostlitcS In vain do protest against IL
legalarrests and wicked proclamation yOuha got

OF ne see how great wrongs to be redressed and
the Union reestablished, while measures foot
which render it impossible to accomplish either on
the war plan. Now | am for redressng these wrongs
and doing what can be done for the Union Cause
| am for getting back the Southern States by fair
and honorable means, If such thing be possible !;
and will hope for the best And want to get
them back as they were don't want conquered
drenched States, with their ruined homes and
weeping population, to make a Union for me Such
a Union would be a mockery Of the name. The
Union desire is Union of heart and hands, such
as our fathers gave u.s."

reply to the statement ola correspondent whowrote
that he had passed through Moore county and found
plenty of provisions for the present year and hands
enough LEFT to make plenty for the next, but found
another person had done so. He says, This is far
from being correct in regard to the western part of
Moore. There is not enough meat and bread if
fairly distributed to prevent suffering and the price
is so high that many will feel extreme want before

RALEIGH, n. C.. Jan. II. 1868.
SIR: At the laSf annual meeting of the State
Educational Association of North Carolina, held in
the town of incolRtun, the I4th and Ihth nf
UeIuUer last, following resolution was unani.
mouSly adopted
Resolced That this Association recommend a
general Convention Of the teachers Of the COnfed
crate States TO be held at - on - 1868,
to take into consideration the best means for supply
ing the necessary text books for schools and collie
SeS and for uniting their efforts for the advance
ment of the oi education in the COnfederacy !;
aud that the Executive Committee of the ASSocia-
ton be directed 10 correspond with teachers in the
various States, on the subject.
We have thought it would facilitate the accomplish
ment of the object of the above resolution, to sug-
geSt time and place for the holding of the Convem
ton referred to-; and we accordingly recommend
that the meeting take place in Columbia South
Carolina, Tuesday, April 2Sth, AT o'clock, p. NJ.
The importance Ut this movement will be readily
appreciated by every friend Of our beloved country
and feel that no class Of persons can be
more useful i'll achieving, under God, the independ
OF u nation, than t:soSe who are engaged IN
training the hearts and minds of the young
The integrity of society itself demands that at
least those Of our text books witch relate moral
and political science should not be prepared by
persons who hcd opinions IN conflict with those on
which our institutions are based and If schools
are ever to be purged Of the Semi-ntdel literature
Of the world we will never have better opportuni-
ty than the present for the commencement Of this
good work.
We woald add, in addition, that our national enc
mics arraign us at the bar of the civilized world as
a people OF inferior moral development and capa-
Lility; and every consideration which can appeal
to our pride, to cur PATRIOTISM and 10 our manhood
as well as of duty to God and to our fell
low men, should prompt those who labor in the
moral domain to be up and doing
We cannot afford to permit any eXigency which
our vndctive foes can bring upon us, to arrest our
efforts in behalf Of those agencies which, next to re-
ligion, do most to promote the welfare Of society,"
and we know that if the rising generation is proper
ly instructed the lapse of time WILL oy the blessing
of Providence but insure that independence for
which those who are the stage Of action, are
so hcrocally contending.
Believing that these views meet with your hearty
concurrence, we respectfully and earnestly invite
YOU to meet us in council at the time and place spe
cited above, fully believing that by the Divine favor
we may thus be enabled to lay in this day of trial.
the foundation of a work which will redoundNo the
honor and prosperity of our noble country.

Governor Vance, as far as he has shown himself
since his inauguration has proved to be first rate
Governor Even these who denounced him as
totally unfit for the place-sad he was only Jester
and clever crossroads politician, without the ability
and the dignity BETTING the high Office his friends
sought to confer on hn-and worked and voted
against him, have since out in his favor, and
heaped praises upon him without measure. lie is
therefore admitted 10y alto be Governor eminently
worthy of the high position which he so worthily
fills. And now, who entitled TO the credit Of
having discovered the fitness of this excellent Ciu-
for the office of Governor and TO having called
him to fill it? 1t was not party-neither old demo.
cratic nor old whg. Who it then? 1t
the act of the unbridled unshackled People who,
in the exercise of their good sense above party
and by unheard of majority put the right man
i'll the right place. Governor Vance is not, there
fore, under the slightest obligation to any man or
party for his position. The peopLe-the People
PeoPte-withOut regard TO party were guided, under
the providence of mercul God to select him aud
TO them alone is he responsible. His position is the
proudeS most creditIble Of any who has filled his
chair within the last fifty years. His predecessors,
for term Of years beyond the memory Of those
who live and vote now, were more or less indebted
to party fo- their elevation; and nine times out of
ten they were partzan Governors. But here is
man Tho from his high position may curl the lip Of
Scorn and contempt at the miserable little dogs Of
party that yelp and whine around him. lie has C
higher, nobler grander mission than to listen either
to their hypOcrtical and designing Establishments
to regard their petty malice May he have the
Wisdom and the grace of Heaven enablin. him to

The Queen in her speech to Parliament says, with
regard to American affairs, that she had abstained
from taking any steps with view to induce a ces-

any such overtures would be attended with any
possibility of success. She, however, viewed with
the deepest concern the conflict which still ragged,

inflicted upon portions Of her subjects.
