Gov. Holden's Message.

.t The New York Hee0lH has full report
of the Message of Gov. Holden, OF North
Carolina, 10 the State Convention. lie
says North Carolina attempted, in May.
1861. to separate herself from the Fede.
raj Union. This attempt involved her
with the other slaveholding States in
protracled and disastrous war, the result
oi which was a vast expenditure OF blood
and treasure on her part, and the practical
abolition Of domestic slavery. She enter.
ed into the rebellion slaveholding State,
and emerged from it nop. .slaveholding
State. In other respects, SC far as her
existence and rights as a State are con.
cerned, she has undergone no change
The President Of the United States wisely
determined that her existence as a State
should rot extinguished, but, unGer
that clause of the Federal Constitution
which guarantees TO every State in the
Union a republican form of government,
that her people in Convention assembled
might so alter and amend their Constitu.
ton, and adopt such measures as would
restore the State to her Constitutional re.
lalions to the Federal Government, and
thus secure once more to the people there.
OF tho innumerable BENEFITS and blessings
Of the Union. is my firm belief that the
policy OF the President in this respect,
which is as broad ;as liberal and as Just as
the Constitution itself, will be approved
by the great body Of the people Of the
United States; and that period is not far
distant, II we are true to ourselves and
properly regardfui Of the reasonable ex.
pectatons Of our friends in other States,
when our Senators and Representatives
will resume their seats in Congress, and
when our State will enjoy, in common
with other States, the protection Of jus,
laws under the Constitution of our fathers
take it for granted, il you will insert in
;he Constitution provision forever abol
ishing slavery OF involuntary servitude il
North Carolina. and that yon will submit
the Constitution, when altered and amen
ded, to the people Of the State, at the bal
lot box, for ratification or rejection.
will be ratified by an immense majority.

The reduction OF the Union majority is
due 10 no change of public sentiment, but
to the fact that thousands OF Union voters,
especially in Northern Ohio, stsid away
from the polls. But the result is a com q.

OF it, every friend of the country must
heartily rejoice. We give few Of the

On the 5th Of August, the number oil
deaths at Cons!antinople was estimated
at between 1000 and $500. This was
formerly the gayest and most disslpated
Of European cities; but the scene has
rapidly changed, and it is now the most
solemn. The corpses are imperfectly bu.
ried, and the stencil is terrible. Dead
and dying men are continually carried
through the streets, and with all this ter
ror came a rumor that the plague had
broken out in Egypt. On the 4 b OF Au.
gust, from 500 TO 2O0O died at STAN boul,
and that place presented frightful spec
tac'e. Whole families were carried off at
once, and many were abandoned by :heir
relatives. when a little assistance might
have saved those afflicted. A hospital

At Therapia SO deserted houses were

That from So. 1000 to 10000 have already

that "the poison Of The cholera is in every
