leigh correspondence says: The people
of North Carolina, especially those around
Raleigh, are decided in their approval of
the emphatic way in which the State Con-
vention disposed of the secession ordin-
ance by declaring it not only null and
void, but to have always been so since Its
passage. The inhabitants are also repre-
sented as being extremely hostile to those
men who assisted in p~lunging the State
into rebellion. In the Convention, on
October 4th, resolutions were introduced,
but laid over for future action, expressing
the utmost confidence in President john
son, thanking him for the course he has
pursued toward the erring people of the
South, to the gratitude of all whom it is
believed he is entitled. The resolutions
also indorse Governor Holden, and ex-
press the belief that no State can ever
again have q desire to abandon the Union.
