Hon JouN A. GILMER-We notice that by far
the majority of all the papers in the State that have
expressed preference among the distinguished men
of the State, for the one most suitable to fill the
vacancy, that will occur in the Senate of the Con-
federate States, by the expiration of the term ofthe
Hon. W. 7. Dortch, have declared in favor of the
gentleman whose name heads this article. Mr. Gill
is trul a conservative man; he follows in the
wake of neither ofthe SO called Destructives Con
servatiyes, and possesses in more eminent degree
than any other IN the State, the confidence of
thr entire people. We should feel, with him the re-
preventative man Of the State in veal in woe,
that the destinies of our good old mother were con-
fided to faithful and true hands. 1t is true were
to consult pride or preconceived opinions we
should prefer the selection of some other man. More
especially the other SenatorShip is filled by the
Hon. VIM. A. Graham, who has ever been the Bit
ter opponent of The principles We have considered
right But he must be a madman or fool who
permits former political associations to Influence him
now. The present is the hour of peril-the day OF
a great crisis, and every man is appealed to, by
spirit of SeliShneSs for the preservation Of his owD
as we'll as patriotism for the preservation of his
countrVs to select such helmSmen to guide the ship
Of State as his deliberate judgment may dictate to
be safest and best Winston Sentinel
We have no disposition to take part in the ap-
preaching election for Senator, but we must be par
doned for saying that we think the Sentinel mis-
taken in stating that majority Of the press that
has referred to the subject, has taken ground for
Mr.. Gilmer for Senator Indeed, the press has thus
far, with some two or three exceptions, expressed
no preferences as to the Senatorship. But how is
it that the Sentinel, Which is ultra Destructive
paper, gives the cold shoulder to Mr.. DOrtch?
Mr.: Graham will no doubt be very much panied
when he hears that he "has ever been the bitter
opponent of the principles" considered rght"
by Col. Allspaugh, of the Sentinel 1t is hardly
probable, however, that Mr. Graham will reconsider
his principles, so as to place himself side by side
with the Editor of the Sentinel
By the way, how does it happen that ourValiant
friend, Col Alspaugh, is not in the services 1t is
reported here that he is restrained from the service
by the opportunities and vehement peadIngs Of his
friends We beg these friends not to resort to force
or stratagem to prevent the Colonel from entering
the service. The Forsyth boys in the trenches
around Petersburg would be glad to see him; and
as he has some military education and military
turn of mind, he would achieve distinction as a
soldier.

We are requested by DR.. W. W. Gray, of this
City, to state that he would be glad to have some
one join him In the manufacture of Gray's Ointment
for the public Dr. Gray is the inventor of this Oint
ment, which is known to be very eficacious for
wounds and sores of all kinds DR.. Gray is prin-
ter, and q cotemporary of Ritchie, Shepherd,
Peasants, and others Of Richmond, Va, and his
situation is such at this time asto call forth the
sympathies Of the craft generally. There can be
no doubt that the manufacture of his Ointment at
this time would be highly remunerative, but mean
time, if should join him in the business, it
would be act of well bestowed charity to aid him
in commencing the business by himself Contr
buttons will he received at this Office and no doubt
at all the printing offices in the State, and forward
ed to DIR. Gray. The press of the State will confer
a favor on old printer by copying this aud act
ing as agents in forwardingto to DR.. Gray such sums
as may be contributed in aid of his undertaking.

DsGRACED SoLDIERs.-We have received a copy
of a General Order banishing to the rear certain
body Of troops depriving them of their coors &C.,
"in consequence of their disgraceful behavior upon
every battle field" This order has not been pub
lshed anywhere, and we will not publish it unless
mpelled to do so by repetition of Unjust treatment
of our gallant North Carolina troops by the news
papers Of the State from which these towards come.
For the present we only say that they not North
Carolnans-Fay. Observer.
We have received q copy of the same Order
"No 12"but wewill not publish it unless forced to
d. so by Unjust reflections on North Carolina troops
We are pained to hear that any regiment or battal
ion of Confederate troops has disgraced ITSELF but
proud to be able to say that no disgrace has
at any time, attached to the arms of North Carroll
ma. Our people may be scattered and peeled"
and wronged, and exhausted, and they may differ
as to the best of extrcating themselves from
their present awful condition but as long as they
are ready go to the battle field they wiU be ready
tOght North -Carolinisns are neither traitors nor
towards. We make 10 reflections on our sister
States, as States. No State ought for a moment to
be Judged by the bad conduct of small portion of
her troops.
