Radfcalism i'm the Convention.

Mr.. Mcdonald, of Moore, whose political sym
pathies are with the Radicals in Congress, and
who, with other par excellence "loyal North Caro-
linians hates the conservatism of the President
second only to the intense hatred he has fo1
Southern ''Destructives,' and would gladly see
North Carolina returned to province" it, as he
may have reason to believe, he could regain the
position from which he was justly elected, has
introduced preamble and resolution declaring
what we have done towards a return to the Union,
and authorizing the appointment of five Commits
sioners to go to Washington, asking of the Presi-
dent and Congress, what more is required of u.s.
The preamble to the resolution expresses the hope
that the President during the recess of the Con-
vention) eco,d be authorized by Congress, to declare
the States restored to the Union"
Should the resolution be adopted it will be fully
endorsing the most ultra radical theories of Ste
vens and Sumner, by the highest authority known
in North Carolina 1t declares, in fact, that the
President has acted thus far without authority, as
he has acted without the sanction of Congress.
There has been no final vote upon the PROPOSE
ton, but upon the motion of Mr.. Richardson to
lay upon the table, the vote stood ayes 20 to nays
IL We, of course at this distance cannot
say that the vote is a test of the strength of
the resolution, and we certainly are surprised to
see some names recorded in the negative. We
will watch closely the final vote and call the at
tention of constituencies to their faithful repre-
sentatives, and dwell more at length upon the eff
feet of the proposition, should it pass
The resolution referred to a select commit
tee of seven, where we hope it will find decent
burial. The debate and vote will be found among
the proceedings of the Convention on the first
page.

The First MARTYR,

Among the graves visited by the ladies of the
Richmond Memorial Association the 31st OF
May, was that of Henry Wyatt of Edgecombe, the
first Confederate soldier killed in regular action
in the late war. Wyatt Virginian by birth,
but was living in Edgecombe county at the COM
mencement of the war, and volunteered in Com
pany A, 1st Regiment North Carolina Infantry,
Captain subsequently Colonel John L. Bridgers.
At the battle of Bethel, 10th of June, 1861, he,
with four other men of Captain Bridgers COM
pany, volunteered to fire house which was occu-
pied by the enemys skirmishers from which an
annoying and CALLING fire was made upon our lines.
The duty of the most imminent peril; but
there faltering or hesitation on the part of
the five gallant young men, and they steadily,
cheerfully advanced At the first fire young
Wyatt was MORALLY wounded, Charles Williams
and G. Rodgers, severely wounded. Wyatt had
the satisfaction of knowing that the position had
been wOn and the work to which he gave his life,
accomplished.
We are glad to see that the grave of this hum
BILE but patriotic martyr has not been neglected.
He rests in the sacred precincts of Hollywood,
beneath the shade of q little grove Of pines. The
head-board bears the inscription, ''Sacred to
young Wyatt, the first martyr; peace to his
ashes"
On the 31st ultimo his grave was beautifully
decorated with magnolias and other flowers, and
on the centre was laid handsome wreath, the
handiwork of Miss Alice Reach, bearing the ini-
tials 'H. w." in evergreens in the centre.
Ribbons of white and blue were attached to the
wreath, on one of which was the inscription,

The Fenian War.

Our Geographic columns have gwen very Jul
accounts of the Fenian invasion OF Canada, so tai
as it has progressed. few days more will decide
whether it is to be raid or a revolution.
As might have been expected, Northern ac'
counts say that in this aggressive movement OF the
Fenians. very large proportion of the troops are
those who formerly belonged to the Confederate
Armies. and that the cavalry are mostly the dis
banded ssguerrillas" of Mosby, under the com
mand of General Fitzhugh Lee. This is all stuff.
General Fitz Lee is quietly cultivating his plan.
tation near Aqua Geek, and if Mosby had had
under his command all the troops claiming
or reported to have been, General Lee would now
have been 'smaster of the situation" instead OF
surrendering his army in the spring of 1865.
It appears that the Fenians who have made the
present offensive movement of the Sweeney
wing, Stephens being adverse to the movement.
The troops are under the command COL ONell.
This officer, although an Iishman by birth, has
resided in this country since the years of his youth
He enlisted in the cavalry wing of the q. S. army
and served for eight years on the Western from
tier At the outbreak of the late war, O'Neill was
q captain in an Ohio regiment of cavalry, and by
distinguished gallantry, rose to Lieutenant
Colonelcy. Col ONeil was very prominent in the
capture of Gen. John Fl. Morgan in his celebra-
ted and daring raid into Ohio.
It is thought that the movement made is only a
feint to cover real attack and invasion from the
banks of the st. Lawrence. Unless this be the case
it looks like desperate and brainless attempt, on
the part of the leaders to give Importance and
permanency to their organization. Yet after their
contemplate failure at Campo Bello, they must
have persuaded themselves that they have chance
of success at least that their present movement
will not add to the odium brought upon them by
that miserable fascO.
We take for granted that our own Government
will at once exert the most active and honest et-
forts to the neutrality of the United States
according to her treaty obligations.

aud set apart for this State by the benevolent Ia

whole in provisions, and as to the best plan of
distribution. He Immediately answered, but was
informed by the agent of these ladies, some two
weeks afterward, that his answer, by reason of
mail detention, did not reach its destination

The New York Herald considers it great good
fortune in the United States to find so much cot
ton in the South at the close of the war. Had
England been fortunate as to discover three
hundred millions of dollars in gold-the estima-
ted value of the cotton that has turned up in the
outh-immedately after her exhausting war with
Napoleon, how easily she would have passed
through her troubles! Yet the Radical party in
Congress doing their best to destroy the Ell
Dorado from which this great national wealth is
derived The North-the whole nation-needs
all it yield now, and the only way to it
is the immediate restoration of the Union.

nessee, taken as a WHOLE and in many portions OF
the State, we imagine, ninety-nine in every hun
bred will be debarred the right to vote.
To add to the proscriptiveness of the bill, 1t is
provided that commissioner of registration shall
be appointed, who:e consent must be obtained
before any citizen can register and VOTE ina
commissioner is to be appointed By Brownlow, and

low any but Brownlow men to vote, will take care
to preserve safe majority of that class. In this

The Memphis correspondent of the New York
Times attributes the recent negro riot to the rad

city. "The disfra nchisement of the citizens OF

BILE exceptions, who directly responsible for
these disturbances, and whose chosen Mayor is
even yet more guilty particeps criasiais."
