RECONSTRUCTION.
The North Carolina Timos-thc new loyal
paper at Newbern-sNys in its issue of the
14th instant:
"North Carolina is beginning to furnish
her quota to the Federal Government. One
loyal white regiment has been raised in this
district, and is under command Of Colonel
MChesncy; and the second under the COM
mand of Captain Charles Henry Foster, is
rapidly filling up, and about three hundred
men have been enlisted within the last six
or eight weeks by his personal cXcrtion.
Another regiment of white soldiers from
North Carolina has been raised by that most
excellent man, General Burnside, in East
Tennessee. To all this we must add the
two regiments of colorcd volunteers that
have been raised and are Row in service. y
cavalry regiment Of blacks is also recruiting

says:

eEg" OUR SotDiERs' PAY.-The move
ment in Congress which has for its object
the increase of the pay Of the soldiers can
but meet with the approval of the pubic.
The enemies Of the Government, always
eager to cast obstacles in the way when the
comfort of our defenders is to he improved
by an appropriation of money, either by the
Congress of our Nation or the more humble
Legislative bodies Of States, and munich
palit;es, are already endeayoring to prevent
the passage of the bil but fortunately the
majority of our lawmakers at Washington
are too patriotic to have their opinions
changed by copperhead suggestions. The
present remuneration Of the soldiers is by
no means adequate to their expenses, to say
nothing of their valuable services; and
whcn wages, generally, throughout the
country, arc being increased, their claims
should not certainly be disrcgardcd.
Thousands Of their number have large
families depending, almost entirely, upon
them for their daily sustenancc, and attel
the sum reserved for the excess OF clothing
over that allowed each year, Is deducted
from q soldiers pay, the amount winch he
is enabled to remit home IS very small, thu.
necessarily entailing suffering and wanr
upon his wife and children.
We trust no unnecessary delay will bJ

has for its object the improved welfare ofs'
many thousands OF our heroes and thci
dependent relations.
