Ninth JudicI0I CIrcuIt OF West VIr.

= North Carolina was among the last OF
the Southern States to secede from the
Union. IL was believed ut the time that
the step was reluctantly taken. and that

Il have the following from unques'
lionabe auhori Y. When i. WAS p rceiv
ed that Lord PalmeIst"n would not re-

81 alt>bury. visited him for the purpo.e
of having some religious c"nverSaio"
with him. They found the old man in
very low condition. The clergyn,s"
asked him it he thought the me lcine.

there was another medicine which was OF

Palmerstvn said. only, Go on. The
clergy man. pleased at this, went on with
further religious remarks, and coming to
another psuse. Palmerstun said. again,
Go on Much encouraged by this, the
clergyman continued fe'ven,ly. aud Lord
Salisbury, who is very pious. joined ii
with him. AT length. Palnerslon said,
'riat is well now read the sixth article
NJ one present knew what this meant !;
and the clergyman referred 10 the sixth
article in the p'av4r b"k, which, how
ever, shed no isht ON the mysterious re

Union sentiments Of the people were
hardly more disguised than ampng the
sturdy mountaineefs Of East Tennessee
and it was looked upon as a refuge and
asy um E,r all who deserted fran the
rebel armies. or whose patriotism led
them to prefer the hardships and dangers
OF existence there, to security and profit
in the services Of the confederacy.
Still cherishing these Impressions. the
people Of the loyal States have been more
grievously disappointed by the action Of
Nonh Carolina, since the collapse Of the
rebellion, than they can be by that Of
any OF the late SLAVE States. Governor
Holden, the most tolerant Of the provi-
sional Governors, man Of ofsplendid abil.
itips, of great integrity ofcharacter. known
to be a favoriie OF the President. and
fully committed to his policy Of recon
>truction. personally popular. and able to
concentrate in himself the full strength
of the Unien element in the State, was
nomir ated for Governor. His election
was regarded rs a certainty. and AS rat
i6catioh by the people Of North Carolina.
Of tile policy Of reconstruction urged
upon them by the prospect it afforded Of
\ speedy resumpti Of civil rights, and
escape from The rgors Of military rulc.
His defeat. therefore. is an event for
which W. we're totally unprepared. and
will tend. probably, more than any single
event that has occured since the cessa
tion of hosliities, TO relsid the work Of
restoration. !
Elsewhere we publishlhe continents
Of the Raleigh press on the result Of the
election. They presenta very gloomy
view of the present condition Of political
affairs in tie State, and more cheerless
for The future. Ii is to be hoped
they have somewhat over-coortd the
picture. But If 1t is fair representation
Of the condition Of thing4, there can be
very little doubt that a provisional gov
.rnment will be main.ained in Norh
Carolina for n long time to come. The
IiIloyal element is. by these accounts.
more active. more bitter, and more in
ractable there than in any OF the
.otton States. aud will have TO be :estain
al by the strong hand Of power.--Cn

In worldly matters think twice" but
In duty, il has been well said, first
thoughts are best; they are more fresh,
more pure, have more God in them.
There is nothing like the hrst glance we
get at duty, before there has been any
special pleading of our affections or in
ciinations. Duty Ia seldom uncertain
at first. 1t is only after we have involv-
ed ourselves in the mazes and sophistries
of wishing that things were otherwise
than they are, that it seems indistinct
Considering duty is often explaining
it away Delibsration is often only dis
honesty. Gods guidance is plain where
we are true.
wHKS worthy men fall out, only one of
them may be faulty at 6rst; but if such
strifes continne long, commonly both
become guilty. But thus Gods dia-
monds often cut one another, and good
men cause affections to good men,
