PUBLIC MEETING IN WAKE COUNTY.

PUBLIC MEETING IN WAKE COUNTY.
At meeting Of the people of Carey district, held
on Thursday the Esd July, Mr.. j. P. Adams was
called to the chair, and j. O. Williams was request
ed to act as Secretary. The object of the meeting
having been explained by the Chairman, on motion,
A. D. Blsckwood Wyatt j. Holleman, j. j. King,
Len. House. and j. O. Adams, ST., were appointed
q committee to prepare and report resolutions. The
following resolutions reported by the committee,
were unanimously adopted:
Reso'ued, That in the opinion Of this meeting,
while the people Of North Carolina have contributed
more than their full share of blood and treasure to
the war, neither her sons nor the State itself has
received that measure of justice at the hands of
the administration at Richmond to which they are
entitled
Resolued That we protest against the appoint.
ment of Surgeons from other States over our sick
and wounded-against the appointment of persons
from other States to examine and enrol our con.
scripts; and especially against the appointment of
Mr. Bradford citizen of another State to collect
the tthss. in North Carolina Such Law is in it.
self bad snough without adding to its harshness by
sending stranger among US to enforce it We are
ready to contribute of our substance to sustain our
soldiers IN the field, and we would have done so
Voluntarily, at ordinary prices, in current money
but this law not only suspects us of an unwilling
ness to contribute Of our substance, but it forces
portion of It from US, much of which, we fear, will
decay and rot in the hands Of government officials
We not only deem the law harsh, impolitic, and
unnecessary, but we demand the immediate remov-
al of the said Bradford and respectfully request that
one of our own citizens be appointed in his place.
Resoloed, That we are proud of the services and
sacrifices of our brave soldiers in the field, and shall
ever cherish and honor them; but if the civil law
is not to be maintained and if civil liberty is not to
be the great result of this contest then will these
services and sacrifices have been offered in vain.
Resolced, That We would hail with joy any move
ment by the great body ofhe people North and South
which might promise to lead to an honorable ard
lasting peace.
Resolued, That we fully endorse the course of W.
W. Holden, in defending the honor and maintain
ing the rights of North Carolina that we consider
his position an envisble one in the eyes of every
true patriot in the land and that we recommend
the North. Carolina Standard, under his control, to
all lovers Of civil freedom
The meeting was addressed in sensible and in
teresting manner by A. D. Blackwood, John Q.
Adams, ST., and j. @ Williams The meeting was
quite full one, and entire harmony prevailed
On motion the Standard was requested to pub.
lsh the proceedings and the other City papers were
requested to copy. j. T. ADAMS, Ch'mn.

And now, hnally let me ask, what Is the pretext
for all the monstrous acts and claims of arbitrary
power which you have SO nobly denounced2 mil
itary necessity" But if, indeed all these be de.
your liberties are gone, and tyranny is perpetual
For if this civil is to- terminate only by the SUBJ

journing for time at widely different points, met
not one man, woman, or child who not resolved
to perish rather than yield to the pressure Of arms
even in the most desperate extremity. And what
ever may and must be the varying fortune of war,
in all which l recognize the hand Of Providence
pointing visibly to the ultimate issue of this great
trial of the States and people of America, they are
better prepared now every way to make good their
memorable purpose than at any period since the be-
ginning of the struggle These may, indeed, be un-
welcome truths; but they are addressed only to
candid and honest men. Neither, however, let me
add, did I meet any one, whatever his opinion or
his station, political private who did not declare
his readiness, when the war shall have ceased and
invading arches been Withdrawn, to consider and
discuss the question of reunion. And who shall
doubt the issue Of the argument?
return, therefore, with my opinions and cenyic-
lions as to war or peace and my faith as to final re-
suits from sound policy and wise stasesmanship,
not only unchanged, but confirmed and strengthen
