Governor Holden, of North Carolina, has jus
issued most extraordinary proclamation. He
declares that his former procamations declaring
the counties OF Aamance and Creswell In q state
of insurrectIon are thereby revoked, and shall
have no further force or efect;" and then pro-
ceeds to express his qualification" 'at the peace
oud good order'' prevailing in those countless
sand generally throughout the State" He trusts
that partisan rancor and bitterness may abate
and that the whole people OF the State, without
respect to party, may unite fraternally and cor
daily to build up North Carolina, and to elevate
her to the proud emnence which she once occu-
n,ed az a member Of the American Union. Gov
ernor Holden has been long while coming to his
senses-but better late than never.

A great camp at this season Of the year is Ger
tainly the most dismal, dlsplritIng, and unInvi-

have set In in earnest and nobody, unless they
had seen lt, could form an idea Of the muddy and
slushy existence one leao at Salbris. 1t Is Sim
9ular fact that, as soon as it begins to rain, all
camps become sea OF mud, but even Upatoria
during the rains could not come up to this camp

Reconnaissance have not come across any
PrussIan troops but it is known that they nave
appeared near La Ferte, about lOoo strong: Iney
are In force about yend0me, they have fortified
the Chateau dc Targeau, &c., &C., anu altogcther
are neglt citing nothing to secure and improve
good positions. On our side everything mas been
at o standst.l. General d'Aurelies went from the
camp to Tours yesterday, and was to return at

It Is probable he Is going to make move lormalu.
