Pennsylvania's Reply to North Carolina.

At the recent session of the North Caro-
lima Legislature series of resolutions were
adopted inviting all the States-North,
South, East and West-to meet in national
convention for the purpose of proposing,
| in exact conformity with the Constitution
of the United States, such amendments to
| the Constitution that the result will be
such mutual concessions as will lead to a
restoration of our former happy relations"
Governor Geary, of Pennsylvania, in a
recent message to the Legislature of that
State, acknowledges the receipt Of these
resolutions, and says that under ordinary
circumstances he would be satisfied simply
to submit the communication without com
ment, but says he, when eve reflect that
the people of North Carolina inviting this
assembly are not in full communion with
the loyal States; that they have been for
many years in the habit of looking with
great Indifference upon the national inter
ests, and of tolerating disloyalty that
throughout the thrilling and sanguinary
war OF the rebellion they used their utmost
efforts to destroy the Constitution and the
Union, and to establish a hostile govern
ment of their own that they recently re-
fused to ratify the mild and wholesome
amendments to the constitution that Con-
gress, by the passage of the reconstruction
ftCb IIltlttS lIIOf10IOH
future military government, and for that of
the other refractory districts lately engaged
in rebellion, is not the presumption with
which these unrepentantrebelsa and subjdga-
ted traitors now ask for mutual concessions
surprising? The people of Pennsylvania
have always been loyal to the Government,
true to the Constitution and laws of the
nation, and have stood i'll the foremost
ranks of the defenders of the Union. They
have no concessions to make, certainly
none to those who have waged trouble
some war, and who have been conquered
at the point of the bayonet. The doc
trine is certainly abhoTent thai defeated
treason should ask the loyal men of this
country to meet them upon equal terms in
convention to amend the Constitution they
repudiated and attempted to destroy. The
guilty failure of those men has assigned
them to far different task-submission to
the terms of the conquerors and obedience
to that law which we all obey.
While Pennsylvania has no concessions
to make, her people, desiring speedy,
just and proper REIMBURSEMENT of all the
States in the Union, earnestly beseech the
citizens or North Carolina, and of all the
Southern States, to return without delay to
the benign influences of the Government,
while yet the terms of such return are easy,
and not to wait for more severe conditions,
and perhaps for more serious punishment

Sad Drowning Case.

On Wednesday last, little daughter of
Mr. Siram ?. Henkel, aged about four
years, fell in the waste race, at Plains
Mills near this place, and was drowned
The child left home about 10 o'clock in the
morning, to go to her brothers house, a
few yards distant, and the family supposing
that she was there, as usual during the day,
had no anxiety about her. At 3 o'clock
inquiry was made, when the awful appre-
hensien was aroused that she had been
drowned in the race. After searching a
short time the body was found-her clio
thing having caught against snag, which
prevented the body from washing into the
river. -Neae Market Valley.

Voices from the Past.

1t is sometimes necessary to exhume the
records of the past in order to illuminate
the present and show men the danger sur

The Radicals are determined to ruin the

utional rights of the States and people
Thi: fact is apparent to all who have studied
carefully the history of the faction now in
power. Evidences of the design can be
furnished from men and papers now aiding
the Radicals in their crusade upon the Uni

Editors Journal Of Commerce:
In your issue of to-day you state 6 Mr.. John
Robinson, Superintendent of the SeabOard and
OF Charlotte dated Portsmouth, Va, March 18th,
says we are so damned with freights that must
dlm!Dlsh our receipts OF corn. Cars are much
needed for merchandise that l have determined
after Mafch 10th, to charge ten cents Seaboard
ten cents Raleigh and CASTOR ten cents and let
the North Carolina road have what they please
Their local Is, think, fourteen cents to Char
lotte." According to Mr.. Robinson's statement
it costs thirty-fOur cents per bushel to ship corn
from Portsmouth to Charlotte while it costs TWEEN
otte and ten cents from Newbern to Wilmington
| think that people jim the interior are not
aware of the difference in favor of shipment from
this place, their orders would all come here in
stead of part of them being sent to Norfolk and
Portsmouth. Please call their attention to the

than it will from Portsmouth to Charlotte

Captain J. d. Myers, who ships a number
of thousand bushels of grain every week to

into every newspaper favorable to the inter-
est of the Old North State, and her public
works. 1t has been in vain that we have
appealed to North Carolinians to patronize
| their own railroads on the general ground
Of State selfshness, but we hope that argyll
ment added to the still stronger one of dol
| lars and dimes will now cause our Western
merchants to look at the subject. 1t is
beyond doubt that they can nowship through
| their Own ports as cheaply as by Virginia.
