Arming the Slaves.

The Fayetteville CarOlinian regards the resolu-
fms of the Governors as proposing to "plaee ne
,-oes in the army" That paper has committed it.
ssIf in the most positive terms against the PROPOSE
ton.
The Fayetteville Observer has not had time to
read the resolutions deliberately" but it regards
tbe idea of "conScrlbing slaves and putting them
in the army as soldiers" as 'inadmissible."
The Charlotte Democrat is not prepared at pre-
sent to express an opinion for or against it" But
that paper thinks if speculation is not arrested and
fthOse white men who ought to go to the war do
not 90, and that speedily, it will be necessary to
tske negroes or abandon the struggle for indeper-
dencc."
The Greensborough Citizen thinks it is not clear
that the Governors have recommended that "wc
use slaves as soldiers in prosecuting this war" We
think it is as clear as language could make it But
"if this is their meaning" says the Citizen, We
are bitterly opposed to their policy. Itwould prove
utterly ruinouS."
The Conservative, of this City, was positively
committed against the proposition before the Gov
grlOrS held their meeting.
The Richmond Sentinel, the organ of the Presi-
dent takes it for granted that the resolutions adopt
ed by the Governors propose to arm the negroes,
and it advocates the proposition.
The Conservative of the 26th October, after re-
fiction and consultation with Gov. Vance, takes
the ground that the idea of putting in slaves to
fight our battles "WGs not entertained by the meet

Our SABLE DEPENDENTs.--We were gratifed re-
Gently by hearing from highly intelligent and in
huental citizen of Charleston the expression of some
views which had often occurred to our own minds
on very interesting and important subject The
subject of the remarks which grati6ed us was the
negro The precise point which gave US pleasure
was the earnest and eloquent expression of the idea
that resnlt Of this dreadful war will be- by Gods
blessing, kindIer feeling than on the part of
the master for his slaves. They have proved them
selves for the most part so faithful so docile so
true to their only friends EARTH the masters God
has given to them, that there is not Southern
heart that will not beat more tendery towards these
affectienate dependents than ever before We look
confidently to slavery shorn of all its abuses SO
far as may be in any way practicable, within very
short time after the close Of this war; So mote It
be.-Southern Presbyterian.

FArTENING SwINE.-Farmers begin to fatten swine
too late. Some do not commence till the first of
autumn and others even later; the consequence is
the animal scarcely gets under way when the time
comes for slaughtering him. Our best managers
make it rule to keep the animal growing without
intermission from the first period of its existence
until ready for the pork tub. II kept over winter,
they are fed and kept comfortable throughout and
the regular fattening process is commenced early in
spring. A bushel of corn given thus early in the
season to q vigorous animal is worth much more
than if fed in cold weather or in winter. One rea-
son that farmers find it Improbable to fatten pork,
is that large part of the process has to be perform
ed when the weather has become so cold that much
of the feed is required merely for sustaining animal
warmth.
The best pork raiser we know of has in one in
stance grown pig eight months old so as to weigh
about four hundred pounds; and in another four
hundred and fifty pounds in ten months. DE has
the corn ground to let at half its value.
Farmers who have not begun to fatten their
swine regularly as they should have done months
ago. should commence Immediately. BY attending
to the particulars just mentioned they will find the
business far more profitable than the too frequent
practice OF feeding in the ear giving :he feed rregu-
iarly both as to time and quantity and paying no at
tention to cleanliness and comfort The skillul farm
er whose practice have already described, finds
that the mixture of meal and hot water makes twice
as much pork as corn fed on the cob, according 10
careful weighing and measuring.
He prepares it by pouring into covered tub,
four pals of boiling water to each heaPing pail Of
dry meal After standing a day or more it all be-
comes nearly solid mass, and makes excsllent food.
The animals are kept perfectly clean dry and COM
Portable mot in close pen, but in small yard,)
are fed with great regularity, and never quite as
much as they will eat surfeit being carefully avoid
ed He finds that pork thus manufactured costs
him only Eve cents pound when corn is a dOllar

Gan act for the relief of manned INDECENT SOL
diers" authorizes the Governor to furnish an arti-
fetal leg, at the expense Of the State, to every in
digent soldier of Alabama who has lost leg in the
military servlce.-AOnt. AdUertiser
Before the late election for Governor in this State
our Surgeon General, by order of Gov. Vance, ad-
vertised in the newspapers that North Carolina
would establish mandatory of artificial limbs for
her manned solders but since the election we have
heard nothing of this commendable enterprise. No
doubt the Surgeon General would most cheerfully
superintend work at once so patriotic and philan-
thropic, but in this ia other matters he must act
according to the orders of the Governor.

y orR SLAVE CoDE.-At the late session of the

G@OuSly adopted by the body declaring the laws Of
IeOrgla, in their failure to recognize and protect
M le marriage relation among our slave population,
" oe essentially defective, and that they called for

By the law of North Carolina, and we presume
Oy the law of other slavehoding States, free ne
gro is not permitted to marry slave. The object
VI 'ne law is to prevent free negro from having a
save wife. What would be the effect of freeing

In the army? Would it not at once divorce thcm

A SPEECH FROM ABRAHAM LNCoLN-Lincoln was
serenaded by Marylanders Wednesday night in hon.
or of that State now being Stree" In the course
of his speech he said something about himself and
the Presidency. Here it is:
Something said by the Secretary of State in his
recent speech at Auburn has been construed by
into threat that if shall be beaten at the election,
l will between then and the end of my constitution
al term do what may be able to ruin the govern
ment Others regard the fact that the Chicago Con-
vention adjourned not de but to meet again if
called to do so by particular individual as the in.
tmstion OF a purpose that if the nominee shall be
elected he will at seize control of the govern
ment. / hope the good people will permit them
selves to suffer no uneasiness on either point. am
struggling to maintain the goverlpent-not to over
throw it. therefore say that if shall live, shall
remain President until the 4th of next March, and
that whoever shall be constitutionally elected, there
re, in November, shall be duly installed as Presi-
dent on the 4th of March, and that in the interval
shall do my utmost that whoever IS to hold the
helm for the next voyage shall start with the best
chance to save the ship This is due to the people,
both on principle and under the Constitution Tneir
will constitutonally expressed is the ultimate law
for all. If they should deliberately resolve to have
immediate peace even at the loss Of the country
and their liberties, know not the power or the
right to resist them. Ii is their own business ana
they must do as they please with their own. De-
lieve however, they are still resolved to preserve
their country and their liberty, and in this, IN ONCE
or out of it, am resolved to stand by them
