means to crush all opposition to his pecu-

Most of our Governors, even the Gov
ernor of South Carolina among them, have
sounded the alarm of Entertainments by
the central government upon the rights OF
the States. And will the people-will our
Legislatures disregard these warnings
disregard the evidence of their own senses,
and suffer the power of life and liberty to
be vested in one man? Is there NO cause
for alarm? Is our danger so great from
the public enemy that we will shut our
eyes against all other dangers2 A people
who will yield their rights at home are tit
subjects for oppression from abroad but
| do not believe that we intend to yield.
There is voice sounding in 0nr ears
and ringing through our hearts proclaimng
that liberty IS IN danger. There is An
ominous feeling among the people. Men
are trembling with a sense of impending
calamity. They are casting about them
for some way of escape-some mode OF
deliverance. A shadow, as from the wing
of the destroying angel, is upon apd
around Them Their fears are awakened,
and they are beginning to be aroused to {"
sense of their danger, and with this sense
must come action.
rejoice that there are some bold men
in our present Legislature-men who have
not such horror of Castle Thunder as to
render them dumb. They are the servants
of the people, and they are but doing the
behests of their constituents when they
raise their voice against the usurpation of
powers by those WHO are also their SER
vantss& North Carolina may be slow to
speak, but when she does speak hers are
the words of truth and sobcrness She
may be slow to act, but there is the more
force and power in her action when 1t
comes. Such men as Pool, and Warren,
and Dick, and Fowle, and Carter, and
Caldwell, and others, are. a host whose
counsels and warnings must be heard and
needed.
If our Legislature will solemnly resolve
not to submit to unauthorized and unnec-
essary power, such power will not be at
tempted. If it will pass resolution in
structing our Senators and urging our
Representatives to endeavor by all honor
able means to prevent the suspension OF the
writ of habeGS corpus, but at the same time
instruct and urge them, in case the writ is
suspended in spite of their efforts, to va
cate their seats and come home, believe
the danger will be averted and the integ-
rity of the Confederacy maintained. This
writ is the great sheet-anchor of our fber-
ties. Deprived of it we are at the mercy
of tyrant's winds and waves, and we
shall soon learn what it is 10 trust to such
| mercy. BRUCE.

HEADQUARTERS, MACON, Nov. 26!h, 1864.
TO Req. DaUid Wis and Others:
In reply to your inquiry, state that there is no
Confederate law yet published to the country that
makes ordained ministers of religion in charge Of a
church churches liable to military duty, and they
are under no obligation to report for duty, or to
obey any officer. The late act of the Legislature
of this State, authorizing levy Gsse of rhe free
white male inhabitants Of the State for forty days
service IN the emergency, does not mention ministers
of religion as exempt but have exempted them 'as
a class" by my proclamation. 1t is not intended to
compel any minister in charge oil church, or any
ordained minister who is in the regular discharge Of
ministerial Duty to report as soldier for military
Service. Their mission is one of Peace, and | am
satisfied God will never bless a Government which
compels His ministers to leave their high vocation,
and engage in bloody strife.
