NORTH CAROLINA SOLDIERS IN THE ARMY OF
NORTHERN VIRGNIA-A correspondent Of the Bibli-
cal Recorder of this City, says:
IAN examination of the statistics of the two ar
my corps of Lieut. Gems. A. P, Hill and R. S. Ewel
disclose the following facts creditable to the State
ofNorth Carolina, that forward them to you for
publication.
Nine States are represented in these two corps
by infantry regiments: Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi Lou
isiana, Tennessee and Florida, yet very near one
third Of the whole are from North Carolina
North Carolina has in these two corps eLs0eR reg
imcntS of infantry more than Virginia. eight times
as aGny as South Carolina lacking one; three more
than tuice as many as Georgia; thirteen times as
many rs Florida; thrSe and hqLf.tines as many as
Alabama toe and four ssrenth tines as many as
Mississippi; four and one third times many as
Lousian1 and thirteen times as many as Tennessee.
Surely our soldiers have just cause Of complaint
when their State is ignored in the newspaper &C.
counts OF great battles and with these facts before
us, il is not difficult to see why so many wounded
North Carolinians are found in the Richmond hos
pitals after every important engagement"

PARIS, November 81, 1853.
"Nothing is to be expected from
Europe. Neither France nor England will recognize
the Confederate States until the Yankees themselves
have partially given up the contest On this point
there ought to be delusion in the South. England
is endeavoring to build up her own cotton culture,
in consequence of the war, and Lord Palmerston's
ministry cannot afford to lose the support of the
Radicals These two motives will hold England in
her one sided neutrality if the war should last ten

We continue to receive letters from citizens and
the wives of soldiers complaining in the most earn
esttsrns of depredations committed by rowing bands
Of soldiers in the Western part of this State. We
publish to-day a communication over the signature
of YGdEiR from one of the most reliable citizens Of
Caldwell County, describing the depredations and
injuries inflicted by Gen. Hodges cavalry brigade
in that section. We learn that portion of that
brigade also visited Wilkes County, and scourged
the people terribly especially in the Trap Hill neigh
borhood. Similar Outrages have occurred in nearly
an the Western Counties. The people of that re-
giOn, comparatively unarmed and defenceless, are
at the mercy Of those rowing bands, for the most
part from other States The cavalry horses Of
Hodges brigade are said to be very pOor-so. poor
as to be absolutely unfit for SERVICE and but few of
them, if well fed, would be of any use in making
aerOp. Such Origades ought to be dsmounted, the
horses sOd and the men placed in the ranks as in.

We learn that the wheat which was somewhat
injured by the cold weather some weeks SINCE is
now suffering for the want of rain, The ope"
weather which we have had for week or two past,
has enabled the farmers to break up their land for
corn in good time We trust that the fear OF tithes
and imuressments will not dshearten the farmers,
but that they will cultivate as much land as Prac-
cable, and raise all they can. The wheat crop, if
it should turn out we'll, may suffice until cOrn-gath
eng time, but it will be our main dependence from
June until October Every ear of corn that can be
produced will be needed As for meat that will be

A writer in the Henderson Times, over the sigma
ture of Unus charges that the Editor Of this paper
has gotten up the Convention movement in this
State with the view to defeat the reelection of Gov
Vance. The charge is utterly without foundation.
oIunius has no proof of it, but proceeds merely on
suspicion. Does any sane person think it possible
that feeble individual IN Raleigh could start and
sustain a movement which would control the State
and decide its elections What nonsensel No
Mr.. Junius, the movement is the peoples, and we
are simply one of their organs. That is all. But
how is it possible to defeat Gov. Vance, if he will
do as Junius says he will, "bow defercntially" to
the will of the people? The people make Cover
nors and Congressman, and the people unmake
them. Public men stand or fall to the people and
each one must judge for himself as to hat the peo
pie wish and what they do not wish.
Jtlnius charges that we are in favor of repeating
the Ordinance by which North Carolina Withdrew
from the Union, and that we are in favor of Con-
vention for that purpose. Junius reads the Stand
ard, and he knows there is no foundation for this
charge 1t exists only in his excitable and very
uncertain Imagination.
Junius also says that we started the petitions
now in circulation in the Western part of the State
and which are being signed by thousands, urging
the Governor to convene the Legislature At fault
again. This plan of embodying public opinion
originated with the people, and not with u.s. We
think it good plan-better, perhaps, than public
meetings-but we are not entitled to the credit of
it But Junius shows his respect for the people by
assuming that many of them will sign these peti.
tions without knowing what they mean. .Junius
talks like oligarch, but he is after all, only one
of the instruments of the olfgarchs
We think we know who .unius is We advise
him to "keep his breath to cool his porridge." lie
is one of the most unreliable politicians in the noun
tain country. He seeks to add to his consequence,
and to oinjure us by attaching himself to Gov Vance
In this be will fail. We advise him to subside un

exhibition of his talents. ~ -.. -
