North Carolina.

w w. Holden, the Provisional Governor of
North Carolina, is also Editor of the Raleigh
Standard. A late number of the paper denies
Che statement that the Confederate State debt
amounts Is forty millions, and says nobodyin
the State thinks of assuming it, On the sub
jet of Restoration the Standard lays down the
Iolowing Programme of principles:
The following arc landmarks by which all good
Union m n in tins Stgte should BE- guided: -
/. UnconditonaL cheerful submission to the ma
tionaI authority. sf.
9 The prompt insertion in the State Constitution
by the approaching Convention, Of the ordinance Of
81. iortFer ab2lisbing slavery or involuntary SER
yitude in this State. $3.50
3. The promptnon-rccogniio ofdebts contracted
by the Satt in aid OF the rebellion but an equally
prompt determination topay every cent ofthe State
debt contracted previously to the war.
I. The inyiolnbiiiy ofpIivate contracts. and such
action By the Convention az will cure all defects in
bargains and titles since May 20, 1861, and provide
for the payment Of private debts contracted since
that date on just basis.
3. The Tightofthe State to determine thequestion
Of suffrage for themselves.
6. Unqualified opposition to what is called negro
suffrage. ~.

state Of West Virginia.

Many of our readers, even among those who re-
side within its limits are not altogether posted as
to the mode and manner Of its creation, and we
therefore publish this week portion Of the meter
relating TO the subject We give extracts from|the
Constitution as framed at Wheeling and adoptsa by
such Of the people as had an opportunity to tote
during the troublous times which followed the Vir
ginia Ordinance Of Secession.
The volume before rs gives no dates as TO the ime
Of the principal proceedings, but it was in the lat
ter part of the year 1861 that portion Of the peo
pie embraced in the counties named held a Cou~en-
ton at Wheeling and constituted loyal Goyan-
ment for Virginia, with GOV. Peirpoint at its had,
in opposition to the Secession Government atRfh-
mond, Of which Gov. Latcher was the existing
head An act was passed authorizing division Of
the State and embracing fortY-iour counties The
territory and people to constitute the State of West
Virginia with provision for admitting several o.
Their counties, upon vote of their people in favor
Of annexation.
BY the Constitution Of the United States new
State can only be formed out of an old one by con
sent of the Legislature thereof. and by the apro-
val Of Congress. This was done so far as As com
ties are concerned, but no action has been takerby
Congress in regard to the counties OF Berkeley and
Jefferson. There viii doubtless be somemovement
the subject at the next session. for wthoutlesis
lation we are not legally 'tacked on" as Senator
Benton would term it. The Commissioner Of I'M r-
nal Revenue, however, has attached the two com
ties to the Sd Collection District, of which y. D.
KErAsrrn is the Collector, and the good people
Of both must prepare to meet the Assessors Of the
Federal and State authorities, and in duo time The

Berkeley and Jefferson Counties.

There is controversy between the States of
Virginia and West Virginia in relation to the
counties of Berkeley and Jefferson, both States
claiming them. They were ceJlcd to West Vir-
ginia by the Virginia Legislature of 1868, and
received by the Legislature of West Virginia
of the same year. but the two counties in
question not being named in. the act of Congress
fprthoadnission oftheStatc of w. Virginia into
the Union it is contended, we think with good
reason, that the transfer was never completed.
The legal authorities are divided on the queA pu
and We presume itcan only be settled BY the
action Of the next Congress. At present the
position Of the counties is anomalous, being
claimed by Virg;niaas part of her Seventh Con-
gressional district, and by West Virginia as
part Of her Second. The Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue has, however, after an exami-
nation Of tie claims of the respective States,
transferred the two counties to the Second Col
lection District ofWest Virginia.-Rich Rep
