Wants to Fight.

The last Wilmington Dispatch says:
g In all candor we can tell the authorities
that the Southern people have not lost the
courage which has rendered them illustrious
for daring They have not lost any of the
skill in the use OF the means of self-defence
for the possession of which they are noted
They do not intend to sit idly by and see
scenes of violence enacted IN their midst
without taking part in the defence of their
hearthstones and for the security Of their
wives and little ones. When they shall be
driven to resistance; when, after having beg
ged protection in vain they are forced to take
up arms against this sea of trouble which
threatens, they will carry such destruction
and terror into the midst Of the poor crea-
lures who have been tleluded into false ideas
through the persuasion of yankee wolves in
sleeps clothing, that they will wish they
never had been born"
The Dispatch is evidently ready to fight,
and 1T proposes to begin with the negroes
What have these "poor creatures" as they
are called, been doing in North Carolina q
Are they not generally quiet Why, then,
this threat to. terrify and slaughter them2

| INTERESTING TO TRAvELERs-We
learn that arrangements have recently
been entered into between the Georgia
and South Carolina Railroads, and the
Wilmington and Manchester Railroad,
of North Carolina, by which through
passenger trains will he run daily be-
tween Atlanta and Wilmington Pas
sengengers, baggage and mails will be
carried daily between these points, with
out change of cars. The most luxurious
sleeping cars, built expressly for this
line, are on these trains. The cars are
both day and night cars, and passengers
need not change their seats from Attain
ia to Wilmington, and have no trouble
about baggage or transfers. Passen-
gers going North. and taking this route
and going up the Chesapeake Bay, do
not lose any nights rest from Atlanta
to New Y DIRK, or even Boston. Through
tickets are sold at Atlanta, Augusta, or
any other point OH the route. The ar
rangement commenced August 4th, and
is step forward in railroad enterprise
which we are much gratifed to notice.
We hope this effort on the part of these
old and favorite roads, to add to the
comfort of the travelling public will re-
suit i'll fair share of travel on the line.
The connections on this line are sure
and reliable, the different companies
having recently added the best and
most improved rolling stock to their
equipment.

Mr.. Davis's Threat to COerce North.
Carolina.

|
The Sentinel denies our statement, recently
made, that Mr. Jefferson Davis threatened in
1854 if the people of this State should think
proper to call Convention to take steps to
make peace, he would prevent them by force
from doing so. The following extract from
a letter witten by MIR. Davis to Gov. Vance,
dated January s, 1864, will prove that our
statement is true:
:" fear much, from the tenor of the news
receive from North Carolina, that an at
tempt will be made by some bad men to in
augurate movements which must be consid-
cred as equivalent to aid and comfort to the
enemy, and which all patriots should com
blne to put down, at any cost You NAV
count ON my aid in every effort to spare your
State the scenes of civil warfare, which will
| devastate its homes, if the designs of these
traitors be suffered to make head. l know
| that you will place yourself in your legiti-
mate position in the lead of those who will
not suffer the name of the Old North State
to be blackened by such a STAIN Will YOU
pardon me for suggesting that my only
source OF dlsquietude on the subject arises
from the tear that you will delay too long the
| action which now appears inevitable; and
that by an Ovcr-earnest desire to reclaim by
cancellation men whom you believe to be
sound at heart, but whose loyalty is more
than suspected elsewhere you will permit
them to gather such strength as to require
more violent measures than now needed
With your influence and position, the pro-
moters OF the untounded discontents now
prevalent IN your State, would be put down
without the OF physical force. if you
would abandon policy of Cancellation, and
set them at defiance. In this course, frankly
and firmly pursued, you would rally around
you all that is best and noblest in your State,
and your triumph would be bloedless. If
the contrary policy be adopted, much fear
you VIII be driven to the use of force to re- |
press treason. In either event, however, be |
assured that you will have my cordial con-
currence and assistance in maintaining with |
you the honor, dignity and fair name of your
State, and in your efforts to crush treason.
whether ineipient, as believe it now to be,
or more matured, as 1 believe, if not now
firmly met, it will in our future inevitably
become"
Here he tells Gov. Vance that he may
" count on his "aid,' and that he will have
his - cordial concurrence and assistance :" in
preventing the State of North-Carolina from
seeding from the so-called Confederacy-
And this from the head of government
whose cornerstone was the right of secession.
He pretended that he was resisting coercion
on the part of Mr. Lincoln-that coercion
was of the essence of despotism but when
one of the States he had dragged into his
concern, and which he was subjecting to the
most horrible barbarites and crualties, threat
ened to exercise the very right for which he
said he was centending, he told her if she
did SO he would coerce and subjugate her.
We have proved our statement from an of
fcal document. Will the Sentinel admit or
DENY the fact

A VERY INJUD1c1oUs MODE OF Pre-
SERVING WATERMELoNs.-An negro man
died very suddenly, on yesterday morn
ing, near the Mechanicsville pike gate,
after eating watermelon which he had
stolen from a lot near by. 1t is said
that there had been so much thieving in
that neighborhood, that the owner of
the patch determined to find out who
was the thief and in order to effect his
purpose he introduced poison into one
or two of the melons. Now, this was
a very injudicious, ifnot criminal act.
Suppose that one of his own children
had eaten of one these melons and died
from the effects of the poison; he would
| of course have felt no remorse ! We
are sorry that we could not learn the
name Of the individual to whom the
melons belonged, and suppose that this
case will be reported by some medical
savan as one of " Genuine Asiatic Chol-
era" superinduced by eating watermel-

TERRIBLE OUTRAGE.-Last week, in the

rus county, negro man committed rape on
a highly respectable married lady. while her
husband was absent on visit to this town.
The villain, after committing the crime, fled,
and the whole neighborhood turned out to
hunt him. In the meantime our City Guard
on the watch for him and succeeded in
arresting him near the Depot in this place on
Tuesday night. He attempted to escape
from the Guard and was shot in the hip by
one of the pursuing party. He was lodged
in Jail.
The lady's relatives, friends and neighbors
are exasperated about the affair." as might be
supposed, and it required great forbearance
on their part to keep from selling him from
the officers and executing him forthwith.
There is also another negro now in our Jail
awaiting trial for similar offence.
For such crimes the punishment ought to
be speedy.-Chdr{0tte Democrat
