Is IHE UNION RESTORED!

Our country is at peace. No one Oo'
iieyes that there is danger oi civil com
motion or of foreign war Oar gallant
army of white soldiers Is beng rapidly
disbanded, and they are welcomed To
their homes amid the grateful plaudits
of a patriotic people; but the fact that
largs armies of negro troops are retained
under arms, should excite TO vigilance
and awaken the anxiety of every citizen.
The war is over; the supremacy of our
dag is acknowledged over the entire Fed
eral domain; there is cause for rejoicing
over the brilliant deeds of our soldiers,
but there is also reason for grave appre-
beusion as to the future The roar of
cannon, the clang of arms, and the
shouts of victory are no longer heard, the
conscription has ceased; the hurried
tread of our young men on the pathway
70 war, no longer startles our women and
children from their slumbers; but the
Union, the grand and only justifiable OBJ
iect of the war, the only object for which
our soldiers fought-the Union is not vet
restored, and dangerous and powerful
effort is being made by professed friends
TO exclude certain # the States from
representation il the Federal Legisla-
ture, and thereby prevent the restora-
! ton ofthe Union.
The Union" does not mean any gwen

General Cox proposes to create negro
dependency" to the United States, from
contiguous territory of the States of Ala
bama, Georgia, Florida and South Caro-
lima, without breaking up the State or
ganizations" | dissent from this solu
ton, because Congress has no authority
under the Constitution to convert one
OF more States into "a negro dependen'
cy;" because if such dependency
were created, a war of determination be-
tween the hostile races would be the in
evitable result and lastly because the
dependency could only be established
after having obtained the lands OF the
white inhabitants by first exterminating
them or by the Government purchasing
the lands on the condition that the white
citizens would abandon their homes that
the negro might possess them.
The plan of purchase is impracticable

Rebel Version Of the North Carolina
Fiyht--statememt of an Escaped
Union Prisoner.
Press Dispatch. J

New YORK, March % The reports in
Richmond of the lighting III North Caro-
lima, as giving by the Dispatch of that
city and reported in General Grants of
fetal, do not conform with those in
Raleigh and published in papers of that
place.
The Raleigh Confederate of the 2lst,
says it hopes within a few days to give
cheering intelligence. So far everything
is encouraging. In the affair which oc-
Cured few days since between Har-
dee's and Sherman's forces, we repulsed
successfully five assaults upon our line,
and held our position until the object
was effected In drawing off we lost
two guns because the horses had been
killed. Our loss in the affair was about
four hundred killed and wounded the
enemy's about four thousand OF the
battle on Sunday, a correspondent states
that very decided advantage was
gained by our troops. The enemy were
driven several miles with heavy loss.
We captured some artillery. The first
battle occurred on the 10th, near the
junction of the Black with the South
river on the Fayetteville and Goldsboro
road Some fifteen miles below Bentons-
vile, in the vicinity of this place, the
battle of Sunday occurred.
So it would appear the rebels fell back
fifteen miles after gaining victory on
the 10th, in which the Union loss was a
bloody one. 1t is evident no decisive
battle had been fought
The Times Washington special says
Lieut.. Morgan, of the 2lst Wisconsin, an
escaped Union prisoner, left Fayetteville
on the 10th, the day of the reported first
battle, at which time the rear of Sher-
mans army was crossing Cape Fear riv.
er and moving North A skirmish oc-
CURED on the 10th, between the I'd di-
vision of the l4th corps and a small body
of rebels. This was all the fighting re-
ported OH that day

From General Sheridan.
Press Dispatch.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-The steamer
Wenona arrived here yesterday afternoon
from the White House, to which point
she had been despatched several days
ago with supplies for General Sheridan's
troops The Wenona reports that the
troops in General Sheridan's command
are rapidly recovering from the fatigue
of their recent brilliant but tiresome
raid, and that the men are in excellent
spirits and ready to enter upon any work
cut out for ,Lem Numbers of guerrillas
have made their appearance in the vicin-
ity of the White House and along the
banks of the Pamunkey river They
have become quite troublesome by firing
upon our transports. A number of Gen
eral Sheridan'S troops, who have re-
ccived furloughs for meritorious conduct
while on the recent raid came up on the
Wenona The Wenona also brought up
from the White House a number of cav
airy horses wore out on the raid, which
are being replaced by new ones.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-It was men.
toned in former dispatch that S65 ref
ugees had arrived here from Fayetteville.
They have taken the oath of allegiance,
and those who decide to do so were fur
nished transportation North These ref
ugees report that the majority of the
people of North Carolina, in and about
Fayetteville, are Unionists, and hailed
the approach of the old flag with many
manifestations of joy. There is no great
scarcity of provisions in South Carolina,
but money cannot be obtained to pur-
chase them One dollar on the Bank of
the State of South Carolina, will pur-
chase ten dollars of Confederate money
One dollar ON the State Bank of North
Carolina will purchase fifteen dollars of
Confederate money, and it requires one
hundred and twenty-four dollars in Con-
federate money to buy one dollar in gold.
Yesterday forty rebel officers and
twelve guerrilla prisoners of war were
taken from the Old Capitol prison and
sent to Fort Delaware.

The Opening Of the Ports Of New
bern and Wilmington Proposed
Press Dispatch. J

NEwBERN, n. c., March 2I--Since the
advance of Gen. Schofield's army from
Kinston yesterday, mentioned in the
Newbern Times this morning, We have
no additional items of Importance. Par
ties from the front say that cannonading
was distinctly heard all day Sunday at
Kinston, which indicates an engage,
ment at GoldsborO between Sherman and
the enemy This was not credited at
headquarters, where we are informed
that Sherman could not have reached
GOldsboro by that time. The report re-
ceived at headquarters that brigade of
the enemy, with their artillery, were on
that day endeavoring to cut their way
through to our lines and deliver them
selves up may be true, and this cauonad-
ing may be the conflict going on among
themselves, although they will not iu-
form us at headquarters where General
Sherman is for obvious REASONS, still it is
announced that he is all Fright, and that
great quantities of supplies have gone
forwara to him
A rebel officer says that Gen. Sherman
is executing two fold movement, each
of which will bring forth results of great
importance if he is successful, of which
he saws there is not much doubt.
Col. J. 7. Conklin, Chief Quarter
master of Sherman's right wing, arrived
here few days ago, and has been active
ly engaged in forwarding supplies to
Sherman. All the avenues for carrying
supplies to Newbern, have been taken
possession of tor the benefit of the public
service This increases the great neces-
sity of re-opening the port of Newbern,
which the authorities here all favor A
population ofover 10000 depend on the
city for their daily supplies, all of whom
in short time must be fed by the gov
ernment if this port is not Immediately

THE INCOME TAX,-A correspondent,
referring to ease where an individual
owned stock in an incorp GRATED compa-
nv sufficient to produce a revenue OF
81 700, but who makes no return OF In
come, says the law provides that the
company, before paying interest, must
deduct the tax, and it is responsible to
the Government for the amount This
is a mistake as applied to tho special in
come tax, the one being collected. The
law specially directs the owner OF
stocks and bonds in incorporated compa-
nies to himself return the income from
his dividends and interest. The reason
is that the interest and dividends from
which the companies deducted the three
per cent. tax havegone out of the hands
OF the companies into the hands of the
owners. Any one who retains the amount
of tax from this source, under the I'M
preston that it has been deducted by
the incorporated companies, is wronging
the Government, and is liable to have a
penalty added to the amount Under
the law for 1864, the companies deduct
the tax before paying the money.-Phita-
delphid Ledger.
