A Foul CALUMNY ON THE PEOPLE OF hALBIGH.-
We learn that report is in circulation in this and
the surrounding Counties that the cannon around
Raleigh have been spiked, and that this was done
by our friends. This report is without the shadow
Of foundation. The guns have not been spiked, nor
will they be. The people Of Raleigh are already
organized into companies to defend themselves and
the public property here against any raid by the en-
envy; and large majority Of these people are our
friends.
This foul calumny on the people Of Raleigh Is in
keeping with the ISLANDERS which have been heaped
upon them ever since the war commenced-and
why? Because they are for the most part Conser-
ratires That explains it The people Of North
Carolina, in the election held in February, 1851,
decided by large majority not to sscede from the
Union on account Of Lincoln's election; but the OIL
igsrchs and Destructives who are now supporting
Gov Vance, condemned this decision Of the people and
went to work to reverse it. They held a revolu-
tonary and reasonable Convention at GodRborough,
in March, in which they made arrangements on the
ensuing fourth day of July, At Charlotte, to carry
the State out of the Union whether the people should
so will Or not; and a batch of these delegates on
their way home to the West, with Burton Craige at
their head, while the cars were at the depot, pro-
voked quarrel with some of our citizens, in the
course Of which they abused the people of Raleigh
and pronounced the place an abolition hole" The
same calumnies that were uttered then about our
people are uttered now, and by the same men,
John Spelman, now one Of Gov. Vance's most ar
dent supporters, devoted considerable portion of
his paper when it was printed here, to denunciations
Of Raleigh as refuge for traitors and tories But
the place became too hot for him, and he left.
No. fellow.citizens, the guns arounl Raleigh have
not been spiked, but if they should be, you may
rest assured it will be done by some government
detective, and not by our friends for man who
mas sunk 50 low as to be willing to act as detec-
1--WE or spy on his own countrymen, would not hest.
,ae' II one of Lincolns detectives could Approach
MN MN with federal gold, to spike our guns or to do
any L.ang oy which he could put money In his
