I was told .-it the North Carolina Home that Gov. Vance had nn ageat who came on with supplies. Such a per -on would bring such things as I suggest, and they ^•ould come safely and quickly only in the et^cial uare ot an appointed person.” We have several times had occtLsion to avail our selves of Dr. Warren’s semi-mouthly messenger to the arffij 01 Northern Virginia, and Uutil the late battles and movements the packages were safely and ^ratnitoutily delivered.

Then; is no doobt of the truth of the sfatement of these members of the Legislature. They refer to a dec laration of Mr. Holden in November last. We have from tirnsi to time, during the last ten months, copied from the Standard itself the ev.dences that it was Mr. Holden's purpose to have the State secede from the Confederacy. On the ‘J.'Uh of August last, the Stand ard plainly proposed that the States should take into their own hands the right to negotiate with the en emy for an armistice, by which it said the war would be ended; and as plainly proposed that North Caro lina shonld not be bound by the terms that other States might agree to. Hear it:— ••Mississippi and Louisiana are prostrate, sullen and silent. They have ceased, so tar as their people at home are concerned, both to fi^t and talk for peace. They are powerless. South Carolina and Alabama may soon be in a similar condition. Must we await the action of these States? And if we do, are we, with arms in onr hands, unsubdued, with the port and spirit of freemen still characterizing uur people, to be bound by what thpy may agree to?

It will probably depend upon some decision of the Supreme Court of North Carolina, (to meet on the L'Uh inst.) whether a collision between the Confede rate and State authorities can be avoided.

A few days after that, the Standarxl pub!i.«hed an urti-'le from its fellow lal>orer anti favorite, the Il«>n. J. T.

Vance, to import the clothing and other supplies for the North Carolina troops, cards for the people, card clothing and other supplies for the factories, and tin^ Jtc , for various mechanical and industrial pur suits. We have more than once referred to the fact that through this operation our soidiers have been confessedly better provided for than those of any other State, and it is well known that millions of dollars—yes, millions—have lx“en made as profit to the State; but who can estimate the value of •JO.UtUi pairs of coitim canls imported and sold at cost aud charges to the soldiers’ f:iinilies, wh-reby they gel at perhaps this in ’ispeiisable artiele that the block ade runners sell at from ^>7.) to ^lOU!

The House was in secret session. On Monday, nothing of interest in either House. In Senate, on Tacsday, on motion of Mr. Hill, the J udiciary committee were discharged from further consideration of the habeas corpus question. He said the committee are of opinion that it is inexpedi ent to legislate further on tue subject at this time. The House passed Senate bill doubling pay and mileuge. On Wedne.'day, the Senate pas-sed the impross- inent bill of which a synopsis was given in our last.

The plan was great. Graut, in pcrsoo, at the head of 150,000 men, was to advance from Culpei>er; Butler, with 35,000 men, to land on the South-side; Sigel, with 10,000 men, to march up the Valley; Crook, with ti.OOO, aud Averill, with 4,000, to strike the Virginia and Ten nessee road: Kuntz, with H,000, to destroy the Pe tersburg and Danville road; and Sheridau with 15. OlH), to capture Kichmond in the naidst of the hubbub Here, then, were 2‘25,000 men, hurled simultane ously against the Confederate Capital. Well might Lincoln's little soul be appalled at a plan so gigan tic and so complicated. Involved suddenly in this huge web of military operations, how was it possible for the Confederates to extricate themselves? The appalling plan ougiil to have succeeded at som*’ point, and so it did. Crook succeeded in burning a bridge; Sheridan iu destroying a considerable quanti ty of meat, aud Kantz iu tearinar up a few miles of ra.ilroal truck. But tiigvl A»ilod, .^.irorill Butler faiied, and Grant himself has. so far, failed •cuiniiics to «een wtiether Grant aud Uutler united will fai’. We are fully assured that they will; and when they do, what will be Lincoln’s sen sations?
