OUR MERCHANTS AND GRoCERs. - The
Journal of yesterday contains an on
slaught upon the merchants and grocers of
this city which is gratuitous and uncalled-
for. It likens their mode Of doing business
to the "huckster combination" that rules
the Columbus market. What folly y
Nobody but the writer of The Jour
nars article ever thought Of such thing.
The idea that such combination could
exist among our merchants, grocers, and
other business, is absurd. There is too
much diversity, too much competition
amongst them for that. AS a class, they
will compare most tavorably with the busi-
ness men Of any other city; and we protest
against the treatment they are receiving
from The Journal. AS to their prices--they
go up, just as fast as "greenbacks go
down-and no faster. The price of mer-
chandise, like that of every thing else, is
fixed and controlled by necessity" which
knows no combinations Our merchants,
and grocers, and business men generally
as class-ar honorable men, and fair
dealers. ..f.

THE NORTH CAROLINA RESOLUTIONS.

THE NORTH CAROLINA RESOLUTIONS.
In, The proceedings Of the Confederate Senate of
Wednesday the 9Th inst, we find the following
Mr.. Graham, Of N. c., presented the
resolutions OF the Legislature OF North
Carolina relative to the writ Of habeas Cor
rus, CONSUMPTION and commercial regula-
tons, which we're read. laid upon the table
and ordered to be printed.
Mr.. Graham said that, concurring as he
did in the opinion expressed by the Gene
raj Assembly on the important topics EN-
braced in these resolutions, he had antici-
pated their desire as contained in the reso-
luton first read. At an early day OF the
session he had introduced bill. which
passed this body, to relieve the States from
the stringent regulations OF the Treasury
Department, made BY them. and which ~
his own State had operated SO beneficially
10 her soldiers in the field. and the sup.
port of the armies Of the Confederate
States.
He had also taken occasion to express in
this body his objections TO the act denoml-
mated an ACT TO suspend the privileges OF
the writ of habeas corpus. which, IN fact,
far trsnsccnds the object designated in ils
title. He concurred. likewise, ia the opin-
ion Of the Legislature as to the act drclar-
ing all males between the ages OF seventeen
aud eighteen. and fsrty five aud fifty years.
TO be IN the military service during ths
war. In the few days which remained OF
the presen, session, h. deemed II useless
10 bring forward any measure on the sub
iect, but believed II would require the Sc
rious revision OF Congress. lie thought the
drain OF men aud boys required by this
act. from their industrial pursuits, the
care sf families aud educational improve
msnt, would not be compensated Tor By
any service they could render ia the held.
lie moved that the resolutions be laid on
,se table and printed. which wa, agreed
