NIw YORK, March 10.-Letters from New
bern, dated March 9TH, states everything is in
readiness for the reception of the enemy, whose
mysterious movements are difficult to under
stand.
The Kinston correspondent OF the Raleigh
Confederate, in speaking of the hanging, on the
9Th, of twenty. three captured soldiers belong
ing to Col Fosters command, as deserters from
the re3el CONSUMPTION, says the prisoners were
escorted to the place Of execution by large
concourse of people and strong military es-
cort. They assembled the scafold with firm,
fortitude and determination. They asked for
no quarters, and scornfully spurned all over
lures OF concession on condition of returning to
duty in the Confederate service.
After making their peace with their God
they fearlessly proclaimed their readiness to
die for their country, against which they said
they had been forcibiy conseripted to fight. A
more sublime exhibition of loyalty to the old
flag was never witnessed. The multitude
were moved to tears, and openly denounced
this cruel massacre, which is causing deser-
tons from the Confederate service by the
wholesale, and creating an Indignation which
it is feared will be uncomfortable.
conscript deserfer who came in the Union
lines ct Washington and joined the I'd North
Carolina volunteers, heard his officers say that
Plymouth was to be the first point of attack.
A Union soldier, who recently escaped from
the Goldsboro' prison, informs Gen. Peck that
great riot occurred at Raleigh on the occasion
of the hanging of the native Union soldiers at
Kinston, and that Gen. Pickett's troops from
that place passed through Goldsboro' with all
possible dispatch to quell the outbreak in that
city, Where the Stars and Stripes Dere conspic-
uousiy displayed, and much violence and ex-
element prevailed.
The press was not allowed to speak of the
matter, and the Raleigh Standard was sup
pressed soon afterwards. Refugees from the
interior bring intelligence of the rebels garri-
soning the whole State of North Carolina with
troops at all prominent points, for the purpose
of checking the Convention movement and
keeping the people in subsection. Iii reported
that the rebels intend hanging the entire num-
Der of Union soldiers captured by them from
Col. Fosters command, 81 in number, half Of
whom have never been in the rebel service.
Ira Neal, drummer boy, IS years old, who
had never been in the rebel service, was among
the number hung at Kinston on the 18th. The
native Union troops have taken the matter into
their own hands, and have given such of their
officers who do not approve of severe measures
an opportunity to resign, and have also given
warning that immediate death will be inflicted
On any officer w no hereafter offers to surrender
to the enemy, or to ask for any quarter.

THE LETTER OF SECRETARY CHASE.

The letter from the pen Of Secretary Chase,
published elsewhere in our columns, is pre-
cisely what was expected by those knowing
him best; serving, as it does, 10 make II pam
to all that his patriotism and excellent sense
are the guides Of his conduct, rather tnan per-
sonal ambition and self.will. He has struck
the key note that should regulate the course OF
all men of true and sound public spirit in
times like the present, when it is the plain duty
of all to CO operate with heart and mind bent
On the sole purpose Of restoring the supremacy
of the authority Of The Government over the
whole Union. No change can be maze i'm the
Chief Magistracy without In volving delays in
the energetic prosecution OF the war, such as
will almost guarantee the eventual success Of
the rebellion. Least OF sll can any such change
be ventured,as will place the executive branch
of the Government In tine hands of those who
are evidently regarded by the rebels as active
sympathizers in their cause.
We know we speak the sentiments of thou-
sands on thousands who had neither lot nor
part in bringing the present administration
into power, when we say that they will vie
with MIR. Chase and his friends in laborins to
the end of maintaining President Lincoln in
his present position, that he may, as best he
can, bring the war for the Union to the speed
lest possible termination, with the result SO
much desired by all honest Union men. How
ever much the class for whom we here assume
to sps ak may have originally deprecated more
or less Of the meas ures to which circumstances
have compelled him to resort, 1t is now quite
clear to them that his policy, as whole, is
the only ore promising success and embracing
guarantee against a renewal of the war at
the will OF the leaders of the rebellion Know
ing the Importance of giving it thorough and
unreserved support. they will not permit par
ty affiliations, aims and names to swerye them

the patriots duty of throwing their votes so as
to secure the most vigorous and thorough pros
