by Mr.. Pool, Of BERTHE, as substitute for some res

" "Resoloed, That the State of North Carolina pro-
tests against the arming Of slaves by the Coneder-
ate government, in any emergency that can possi-
bly, arise, but gives its consent to their being taken
and used as laborers in the public SERVICE upon Just
compensation being made.

Congress to pass any law "impairng the right of
property in negro slaves" inserted for the spe

take them for the public use, without the consent

press slaves for the purpose Of armng them, or pre-
pairing them to be armed in any contingency with.

these agents are going round to those who have ba

The Latest News,

The Latest News,
We have many rumors from various quarters,
but at the time of writing this we have reliable
news of great Importance
From Georgia.
The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel of the 18th
says it was reported in that City that morning that
the federals had possession of the Savannah Albany
and Gulf Railroad. 1t was also reported that they
had possession of the Charleston and Savannah
Railroad bridge over the Savannah river. If these
rumors be correct, says that paper, our forces in
Savannah are rather in tight place. The same
paper states that two trains run the gauntlet through
from Savannah to Charleston on Saturday night,
but that after they had passed the enemy cut the
Road near Grahamville.
The Augusta Constitutionalist Of the same date
says, it is rumored that Sherman had demanded the
surrender of Savannah, which, being refused, heavy
fighting had been going on all day Sunday. The
Charleston Mercury contains similar news:
This is about all the news We have from Georgia.
No doubt the government is in full possession as
to the condition of things in Georgia. but this infor
nation is withheld We have heard rumor that
Sherman had occupied Savannah and another, that
he was marching in full force through South Caro-
lima towards Port Royal. The Richmond Sentinel
of the 18th says:
"Such is the condition of affairs in Georgia, that
the enemy can get no information from Sherman,
but through Confederate sources 10 state where
