WESTERN NoRru CARoLMA-If the half that we
hear of suffering and distress in the Western coun.
ties be true the condition Of many Of the people is
pitiable indeed There is much suffering for want
of food and learn by letter that there have ac-
tually been some cases Of starvation in some of
those counties bordering on the Tennessee line. In
fact the whole country, beyond the Blue Ridge, has
been almost literally stripped, and the best and
most intelligent citizens are apprehensve of results
With 1.-THE tax, impressments and the plundering &
Of marauding bands they have but little left an
and the prospect for the coming harvest is not en-.
couraging. There are but few slaves in those
mountain counties, and the ableb bodied men are
nearly oil in the war, leaving only the old men,
women and children to labor on the farms.
We learn that Gov. Brown, of Georgia, induced
the authorities to exempt ten Of the poor mountain
counties of that State from conscription. Why
could not similar favor be extended to those coun.
ties in this State lying beyond the Blue Ridge, es-
pecally as to the boys from II to 18 years p
Pr0gress

Stumping the State.

The Confederate of the I'd of June-one of the
mercenary organs of Gov Vance-contains notice
that the Governor will address the people from the
4th to the 22d June, commencing at Greensborough
and ending at Lenoir. The Governor will thus be
absent eighteen days. negecting the business OF his
Office and stirring up strife among the people
Meantime we shall have a Deputy Goosrnor in the
nerson of some shade Aid-an officer unknown to
the Constitution.
1t will be seen by the following notice. handed to
US in handbill form, that Gov Vance has been using
the Central Railroad to convey his partizan friends
to hear him speak. The most rigid restrictions are
imposed on citizens who travel, and many members
of families who desire to visit sick and wounded
soldiers in the hospitals are prevented from doing
So and passes required of all citizens who travel
men and women but the partizans of Gov. Vance
are inu;ted to travel without passes, to hear him
speak, The Governor seems to have come to the
conclusion that he has special personal inter-
est in the public property The pets and favorites
who surround him are permitted to purchase sup
plies for their families from the State stores at low
prices, while the people are stinted and suffering
for the necessa:ies of life; and he sends off his cot
ton on a State steamer to purchase his Yankee and
European luxurles, and the Railroads to trans
port his friends from point to point to hear him
speak.
"Gov. VANcE.-An extra train. will be run on
theNorth- Carolina Railroad from Greensborougil,
on Tuesday, the 24th of May.
Ladies and gentlemen who desire to hear Cover
nor Vances address, can leave Greensborough and
other points on the Road in the morning, and re-
turn the same day.
Agents will issue return tickets for one fare.
Train will leave Greensborough at 8, A. NJ.

To the sherids and Tax-collectors Of North.
Carolina:
The following is q copy of so much of an act
passed at the last session Of the General Assembly
as relates to the currency in which taxes may be
collected:
SECTION l. Be 1t enacted By tho General Assens-
blu Of tho State of North Carolina and 1t Is here
taxes due to the State or counties and Tor school
purposes. or taxes for the poor, all payments for

for the use of the State Counties may be paid in
Treasury notes Of the Confederate States under five

the Confederate Congress, ratified the 18th Of Feb
ruary, ls64-and all such dues may be paid during
the present year in the old issues of Confederate
Treasury notes of the denomination Of five dollars
up to ty dollars, both inclusive less thirty three
and one third per cent, the tax imposed by the act
of Congress.

the above declaration, because it proceeded from
the Governor, is all right and that, If he says in
one breath he may 60 out Of the Confederacy, in
another he says he will not We confess the above
sentences in jaxtapositon present the Governor in
about consistent an attitude as he generally oc
cupiea.

This is Commencement week at the University
Of this State, at Chapel Hill. We learn there are
eight graduates and from forty to fifty mat1icuates
In 1860, before the war, there were about five hun
dred matriculates, and some seventy to eighty grad
yates. This is the only University in the South,
we believe, which has continued regularly to dis
penss its benefits during the war. We.trust the
institution may go through the war, and come out
of it prepared for still greater usefulness If some
of our friends, as heretofore, will send us an &C.
count of Commencement We will take pleasure in
laying it before our readers.

TIE AG1rAroR-But for the strife and agita-
ton Gov. Vance is creating in the State by his
stump harangues, and the neglect of the business
Of his Office by which many Of the people are suf
fering Inconvenience, we should thank him, so far
as we are concerned for his efforts before the peo-
pie. He loses votes by these efforts wherever he
makes them. We have reliable information to this
effect from Fayetteville, Snow Camp, Hillsborough,
and other points A friend writing US from Snow
Camp, says:
1--WE are all right up here. Gov. Vance made
no impression in his favor by his speech. He let
off his gas to no purpose at Snow Camp. So long
as you stand up for the people and their rights they
will stand by you"
Gov. Vance will not poll more than seven votes,
if that many, if any at ALL at Stouts, where the
Snow Camp people vote; while his opponent will
get from seventy to eighty. Mark the prediction.
Purrne ON ARs-Col. McRae, one of the mer-
cenary Editors Of the Confederate organ Of
the "patriots and property holders ".-s putting on
airs. In one of his notices of the Hampton Sian.
der against US he says:
"1n the meantime Mr.. Holden ought not to be
permitted to make this question of political
campaign. In our opinion, it is a question for .
Judge and jury first and for the people afterwards
That is the Ex. Colonel wants us arrested Will
he turn common informer? We now tell bin and
all the other mercenary supporters of Gov. Vance,
that our skirts are as clear of treason as theirs
be- and that we are and have been truer to the South
than they have been or can be- Our devotion tothe
South is disnerested and patriotic; their devotion,
what fhoro ic Of II hoch h., e..
When the money gives out the devotion will perish.
Come on with your judge and jury Col. McRae
All we ask is, that none of your political associates
shall sit upon the jury, and that no friend Of ours
will offer fee large enough to induce you to ap-
pear for US.
The Elk Colonel in just now putting on airs Af
ter the first Thursday in August when the people
shall have voted, all the starch will be out of him.
But give him notice that if the war should be in
progress on the first of January 1865 aud he should
bel conscript as he was when Gov. Vance saved
him from service by not requiring him to settle his
accounts, shall not interfere to shield him from
Yankee bullets. The place for him is not in the
shade, but close to the flashing of the guns
The Richmond Examiner says that Mr.. Mcmmin-
ger the Secretary Of the Treasury, has so conduct
ed his business that though the creator Of millions
