Tbb Coifi.Na Oamfaign.—Wo have not bwn able
to divest onr minds of the idea that the yank'?c uiove-
centf in Northern Virginia are a yankoe trick, de-
iif3Cd to diven attention from the f^al point of
present attack, and that »hat point is Northern
Cteorpa.
The first incident that led to such a belief ■nas,
that Grant had relieved from duty in the Virginia
army, and sent to the South and West nine General
officers. f>ouit of them reijarded as aniou^ the be^t
in that army. If .seemed ■itraa^e that if he intonded
to make hi.-> great effurt m Virjrinia he .'b)uld di?-
poss^'si him-ielfof any Cfoaeral of tnod and approved

(in addili(tn to our iirnial habit lus indieattHl above')

not a doubt—and there wa. an end of the matter t>o
fa;' u% we wen' ri'iiceinod. I'hi.^ j>a]>er abides >»y
and uphuldn lai; i.,vw. as ihe only nuiety ol' the pco-
plv's rig-hte, Mr. Stephen.-?, a- afterwanl appeared,
did not linok the .-^:ptnia!uri rou.'titntional, and
mnde hi.^ spt'ech takiair that pn.'otion. as he had a
pc rfi^ct right to do and to which we - havv uot the
slightest objection. 'I'his i.- a free country. Diif,
by the time Mr. Stepheua’s epeech was published and
reached us the whole matter was plat'Od beyond dis-
curK^pa. It had been l>efor*; tu«- 0*urt8, and in eve
ry ritate in which the question waf; raised, (jeorgia
and N. (’arolina included, the judgment was against
Mr. Stephens. The law was derided cousititntional.
This is a law-abiding papei*. and these deii.^ions end
ed the matter with us, just a.-* we huppo&e would
have been the case with Mr. Stephens if the Georgia
decision had been rendered l>cfore he spoke. The
pectxliar .States Righte men of tho day make it their
special 'logma that tho decisions of the State Courts
are final. It is unfortnnaie for the countiT that
their practice ic nol made to confonn to the doc
trine which they have do zealously preached.
Among the allegations made by the Holdenites
against the newapttper' which have failed to publi.nh
the sp>ech is the very ungenerous and unjust inti
mation that they ;ir«' “.'Ubjichzed.'' that th'*y refuse
pla ro to the fjpetrh in return for the profit-; of jjov-

liaLigh Progrttt, '2(^tk.
It It said that by ci»n>tant it^^ralion men fk>me-
limt.'H cf»me to belit've tu In.* tme thing.s which th**v
know to be false. L-^t .such a result should happen
to the Haleigh Progress, we think it proper to state
ihut ih*- panigraph alxtve qaoted from us isiu** of
ye-.:u*rday (which is but a repetition i>f what it h.is
frequently -.aid,lately) i-», .so far a-> ndatrs to this pa-
pt'r, utterly desiiiul** of irnth. This paper was an
earneot advix-ute of (»ov. V'ance’s election two veaf-i
ago. any man who knowb anything «>f our Slatt
j/olitici? know.s. It'it had denoun ed Gov. Vance or
his frieud.s, as the Progre.ss say-M, it is not lik-.ly that
Gov. Vance would havt* pjussed by a noisier frieml.
and selei:ted the Editors of the Observer as the pro
per jH;r.iona to whom to addre?? his letter of accept
ance of the nomination for Governor in 1862.
Of the same character with the itatement just no-
uccd ia the following, also in yesterday's Progress:
"They [tlic ouservativeo] cannot act with the Con-
f>‘d* raW!, the State Jour;*al. Wilmiaglon Journal and
FhyLitevillc Observer and ba right. These papers all
advo^.‘at‘ the “last uiiiu and the last dullnr*’ in a war that
i.-i U, In- coutinuel till MaryUud, Keutucky and 3Iissouri
are redeemed, though half th- women audVhildreu of the
fall
battle will be fought here .sooner than in Virginia ”
Thefo art* the main rea^ns for onr belief. The
capture- of Richmond is undoubtedly the first wish
of the yanket-s; but a victory nnywhere is of the
Qtioost lmportan«.-« to them at present. They are
afraid of Ix-e and his noble veteran-i. and may
5»feU think that their • han es an- l>ett*-r against any
oibfr than his.
The Yaskcf. SnrAno.N.”—The Richmond Whig
-4kes thr following ho{>efnl and we think lorrect
ot the downwanl progre-ss of matters at the
.North. Sine*- Uie Whig wrote, yankt^’ gn-‘ubac^'S
have b^-n down still lower, so that a dollar was worth
bul fifty-three cents in specie. Thus depreciation
was 80 rapid and alarming, that another esf*edient
wofi resorted t»j in the hope of arresting it, and it did
partially, bat it will prove to bo only a temporary
■hift—always provided our armies hold their own.
Oa thib everything dei>end3.
Ttie Whig says;—
Tho intelligenco of the last day or two has been
of the most gratifying character. Gold has reached
I higher premium in yanksedom than it has com-
mauded since the war began,.in .spite of the bill au
thorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to bell the
fcroveminent goU, with the object of depreciating it^ ^
'ilue, by flooding the market. Chase’s “greenbacks" I land die by starviurou and the ‘ la'-t man,” lit4-riilh%
are worth less than sixty cents on the dollar. The I In th« struggle.
t^ipease of carrying ou the war is nearly double what | -rt,e Observer ha.^ never advocated any thing of
the sort. It has never known brit one paper and one
man to advocate "the last man and the last dollar.'
t would bo if his paper were at par, and the period
when the Government vsill find itself without means
lo prc>«e*'ute it further is thereby shortened nearly
one-half. The pay the soldiers rereive—and they
are for the nio9t part fighting for money—is worth
bat little more th.'in half what it was when they ron-
trtoled to serve. The incentive to remain in the str
nee UI 'iimini.shed iu like proportion. Bnl the pres
ent reducel Vftliit- of Cha'ic'^t noiea iMtriUiuji i.. what it
mtut be before long. The lart'er the rtiscouut be
comes, thu more rapidly the depreciation goes on.

manage the yaukee \ nrrenoy an- able to interpose

The Dcpdrtur.: nf Ihf. Kuemy from Below.—
Nearly or quite all of the enemy, who were maraud
ing about the country l>etween Suffolk and the Black-
water last Thursday, have returned to Fortress Mon
roe. They stole and carried ofl’everything of value,
and what they could not carry off was broken to
pieces and otherwise destroyed. They entered Suf-
tolk howling lilee demons, ojX'ned and searched pri
vate dwellings, dewtroyed furniture and stole cloth
ing. The workshops were broken open, and all the
tools destroyed. AtSmithfield, they stole the valu
able library' of Leop^)ld C. P. Cowpt-r, who long siuce
deserted his country, anu is now Lieut. Governor of
Virgaiia, under* Pierjwnt's bogus government.
■ Tlie fight in Wren's tield, referred to in our last,
was continued for four hours, aud the yaukees finally
sought the protection of their gunboats. Caplaiu
Charles Spruill of North Carolina was taken pris
oner. We killed f> or » of the enemy, and wounded
18 or 30.
