1t is worse than idle to talk about "appeals to
the patriotism" of planters. Nothing less than law
will reach them. The mania for speculation and
money getting is abroad in the land and has swal.
lowed up all other motives and considerations
Register
Is this true? r. our planters generally so des-
tute of patriotism in this crisis as to require the
stern restraints of law to prevent them from pursu-
ing such course as will ruin their countryp Are
they too Swallowed up" in the vortex of gain ~
If so, then the cause is desperate. But we do not
believe it.
But what will the Yankees say when they see the

soldiers forgotten the suffering poor, forgotten their
country, and are determined to devote their labor
and their lands to cotton and tobacco, no matter
what the consequences may BE- Concluding thus
they will take courage and press US With their
armies at all points with more. vigpr than -sses.

Under this head the Greensborough Patriot asks
if the Justices of the Peace, who are indispensable
in assessing property and raising revenue, are to be
conscribed? Under our revenue law the services
of at least ten Justices in the smallest Counties, and
of twenty to thirty in the largest will be required
on the district boards of valuation and to conscribe
these Justices, or any considerable number of them
will be to arrest the operations of our State govern
ment at the most vital point. As the law stands,
We cannot raise revenue without the aid of Justices
and if we do not raise revenue, the State govern
ment must stop'and the State debt will be repudi-
ated. The Patriot says:
IF, as we conceive there is no law for conscri
bing the Magistrates, we call upon Gov Vance to
put his ceto upon it. Taking these Magistrates
away in the midst of their work Of assessment will
greatly derange the matter, and we enter our pro.
test against it. as ignoring all State authority and

A COUNTRY HOME.

Oh give me home in the country wide,
And seat by the farmers wood tireside
Where the fire burns bright,
On a frosty night
Where the Jest, the song, and the laugh are free
Oh the farmers home is the home for me.
Oh give me a home in the country wide,
Where the earth comes out a blushing bride
When her buds and flowers,
In the bright spring hours,
Her bridal song ringing from fresh leaved trees
And melody floats on the pertumed breeze
In summer seat in shady nook,
And close by the side of purling brook,
Where the violet grows,
Or the pale swamp rose,
Painting, sick, meath the suns soorching beam
Dips her pale petals in the cooling stream
Oh! give me home in the country wide,
In the golden days Of II farmers pride,
When his barns are filled
From the fields he's titled,
And he feels that his yearly task is done,
And, smiling at winter, he beckors him on.
