We make the following extract from q letter from
one Of the most intelligent and patriotic citizens Of
Western North Carolina.
II have been paying some attention to the leg.
islaton Of the PRESENT Congress, and have been
Struck with the part taken BY members protesting
TO represent States in which they have few or no
constituents. These members go to man for the
most exactng and oppressive conscript and "a laws
when those laws will not reach single man Or :
single dollar in their own States. protest in the
most emphatic terms against such injustice Tax
alton and representation should go together y
One strong reason, It seems TO me why we should.
nave State Convention is that slavery exists SOLE
" by virtue Of our State laws. Then, if our State
government should I've overturned in this revolu.
ton, the emily tenure by which we hold this species
OF property will be destroyed. From the progress
ALREADY made BY the enemy in ovcr-running the
country, fear such will be the result Hence, the
great importance of our State while she Possesses
State government, taking such action as will Sc
cure TINS species Of property and that action can
" oe taken ID Convention. / am deeply impressed
with the fear that if the war should be indefinitely
prolonged slavery will be DESTROYED beyond rede,np.
ton"
There is food for reflection in the view taken of
the institution Of slavery by our correspondent
We feared and so declared at the time, that seces-
sion would limit slavery both as to territory and
duration; and we now apprehend that if the war
should be continued twelve months longer, with no
greater success to our arms than has crowned them
for the last twelve months, there is great danger
that the institution will he hopelessy destroyed
These are our honest convictions and we do not
hesitate to utter them. We went to war to protect
and preserve the State soveregntes, and to defend
and perpetuate the institution Of slavery; but if it
should appear that we are likely to lose BOTH as
rational beings We should pause and consider well
the direction which things are taking.

The New Conscripts.
JOHN W. DANIEL,
A. A. G.

The repeal Of the substitute BILL to be followed,
perhaps by the repeal of the bill Of exemptions, will
throw into the army large number of neE conscsipts.
Time presses and if the dsteFm nation be to have large
armies at any cost it is important that the new eveS
be drilled and taned previous to the opening of the
Spring campaign. As raw recruits, thoy would be OF
but little service Three months Of inactivity may 10
counted on During that time the new conscrpss must
be prepared to fulfil their duties in the field There
FORE the sooner they go into camps OF instruction the
better Il will not do to expose them at once to the
trying exposure to which our seasoned veterans are
necessarily subjected. This would kill of, cripple or
disable the much larger portion of them. Out OF sew
enteen conscrpts sent last Winter to certain com
pany in the Army of Northern Virginia, Ateen died. or
we're permanently disabled before bostiities began
When the militia called out and sent to Norfolk
lust before lie evacuation ou of eight hundred
fou..hs became unfs for service in few weeks and
the whole we're disbandsd.
We should be prudent, and while calling out our
whole available force be careful enough to keep them
alive and WILL until they fight at least ore battle
We have ne men to feed away to pneumonia, pleursy
and acute rheumatism. The new eonscripts should be

Congressional Panics.

Early in 1862 there period of panic in Congress
similar to what it Is Aboring under now 1t was at
time when very dark clouds were gathering over our
prospects In rapid succession items OF evil news
either of doubtful victory followed by retreat or Of
some grave reverse. Manassas was found untenable,
and, the theatre OF operations changing in Virginia
soon after, was followed by the terrible Peninsular
campaign. Orittenden was defeated, and the brave
Zolccffsr killed in East Tennessee. Sydney Johnston
was in fun retreat from Bowling Green, and soon after
Fort Doneson and Nashville fell Roanoke Island, Co.
lumbus For. Pillow and Island No. 10, were in rapid
succession lost To u.s. Shiloh proved drawn battle, or
barren victory, and Memphis, and New Orleans, and
all of the Mississippi River except the gallant town of
Vicksburg passed from our hands It was during this
period that Congress exhibited panic similar to that
which il now labors under. 1t the day of one
of the first of these reverses, Fishing Creek before
the news got abroad and public apprehension was st
the time undisturbed that Of the pures most pa
trotic and gifted Of statesmen, who then held and
sH holds one of the highest Offices in the gift Of the
people, remarked despondingly upon our prospects,
He had abOred earnestly to prepare for and prevent
what he fJresaw he had advocated steps that could
and should have been taken, by which we could have
met and hurled back the impending danger prophet
of evils vet trus and unbeieved he foretod that with
in one hundred days 60 many strong and important
places would be wrested from and held aud fortified
by the enemy, that it would take years of terrible war
fare to recover them and the country he feared would
be crushed by these and their consequences
10 the verge Of despair and subugation. How nearly
have these authorizations been rsazedf All remember
the CONSERVATION that psrvaded our land. Congress
became panic stricken it now is and sought in pre-
cpitate legislation to remedy the evils. A general
couscripfon was passed. instead OF calling upon the
States for quotas of men. While it demoralized the
ohvaIouJ ardor Of yeomany, the increase Of the
amy was certainly not greater than what might Other
wise have been obtained Martial law was enacted and
even the suspension of tAe writ Of hGbsas corpus at
the will of the Executive advocated. Upon some
Of these prscpate proceedings Congress had soon af
ter to reverse its action 1t too late to retace its
steps entirely But blow then struck a. the viaG
of our constitutional liberty Let US hope that Con-
gress now aboriDg under similar panic may not repeat
the blow which may prove fatal 10 our cause.

In the days when Garth was young;
By the ferce red light o. his furnace bright,
The strokes OF bis hammer ruog;
And be lifted high his brawny hand
On the iron glowing Gear.
TIL the sparks rushed ouj iu SCARLET showers,
As he fashioned the sword and spear.
And he sang" HuIrah for my hsudiworki
Hurrah for the spear and sword
Hurrah for the hini thai 'hsll WELD them well,
For he shall be king aud lord"
70 Tubsl Cain came m.uy one,
As be wrought by bis roaring fire,
AID each one prayed for a strong steel blade,
As the crown OF his desire;
And he made them we iponS sharp and strong,
Till they shouted loud for glee,
And gave him gifts Of pearl AID gold
And spoils of the forest free. (
Aud they sang" Hurrah for Tubal Cain
Who hath given US strength a-newl
Hurrah for the smith, hurrah for the fire,
And hurrah for the metal true"
But sudden change came DER his heart,
Ere the setting Of the sun;
And Tuhal Cain was filed Nth pain
EJr the evil he had done;
He saw that men with rage and hate,
Made war upon theif kind,
That the land was red with the blood they shed,
In their lust for carnage blind,
And he sa'd-" Alas that l ever made,
Or that skill OF mine shouli plan, -
The spear and the sword, for msn whose JOY
Ia to slay their fellow men.
And for many q day old Tubal Cain,
Sad broodDg o'es his woe; :
And bis hand forebore to smi'e the ORE:
And his furnace smouldered los,
But he rose at last with q cheerful face,
Aud bright courageous eye, =
Aud barred bis strong right arm for work
While the quick flames mounted high,
And he faug-" Hurah for my handiwork !"
Aud the red sparks Lit the air;
"No. alone for the blade the bright steel made,
And he fashoaed the first ploush-share.
And men taught wisdom from the past,
In friendship joined their hands,
Hung the sword in the hail. the spear on the wall,
Aud ploughed the willing auds;
And sang" II lrrah for Tubl Cain
Our staunch good friend is he;

To him our praise shall b..
