THE OLD NI tit, uai. j. m Bditor. FOB. GOVERNOR, JONATHAN WORTH, OF RANDOLPH. , bt we have BO anety to 4T At the request of friends we repub lish our article on tbe tariff to-day. We bad orders for a number of extra copies of it after oar first edition was e Wc will fill tbem to-day. Aad to the wbo to to fat tbe Tke Philadelphia Convention of "Southern Loyalists " The proceedings of this body do sot seem to be very harmouioua. The extreme Southern Radicals and the border State men cannot agree. Tbe former arc clam eroua for negro suffrage, as a neons, as tbey say, of self protection. The latter are opposed to It. They say that if it is adapt ed w a part of the platform it will utterly destroy tbe Congressional party in New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Kentucky, Missouri, Illinois and Indiana; if it is re jected it is thought that it will damage tbe party in New England and the oiltumi North West This question seesss as be a two edged sword. The Convention real ly does not know what to do with it. The present indications are that negro suf frage will be insisted on by tbe delegates from the Gulf States, many of whom were original secessionists, and that it will be resisted by the delegates from the border States. A split will most probably take place which will be. permanent. Upon the whole we regard the Conven tion as a great failure. Its meeting must necessarily advance the conservative cause. The fact that the Southern delegates gen erally demand negro suffrage will drive tbe great mass of the Southern Unionists a this State to the support of the National Union party-. It is favored by nobody in this State at present except by a few aspi ring and corrupt politicians.. The Future of Worth C arolina i For some time past the attention of the press of tbe State, has been almost wholly engrossed by National and State politics. The material interests of the State, either separate or in connection with general pol itics are rarely thought of. The one en grossing subject in general politics has been that of K ! vastnratioa without reference to tbe material interests incident ally involved. Men have seldom stopped to think of tbe vast changes which the events of the but five yearn have wrought The btte war, though a failure so far as the great object sought to be attained by the South was concerned, yet accomplished a mighty social revolution. The great insti tution upon which was based the social and economic systems of the South has been swept away, and our people have not yet sufficiently considered what is to be the effect of this revolution. Tbe effect most ultimately be to change very materially the whole structure of Southern society. The change will be gradual owing to the force of habit and the strong prejudices of our people, but it will finally come. Former distinctions will gradually wear out, and they will, ere long, begin to appreciate the "dignity of labor." Character and intelligence without refer ence to occupation provided the occupa tion is an honest and an honorable one will one day become the only passport to society. Then, hundreds of young men, who in this age would not be satisfied with any, thing short of a profession, or a clerk ship in a first class establishment, will bend all their energies in other directions. They will seek wealth and position in oth er fields. They wfll tarn their attention to the development of the material resour ces of the State, and in such pursuits many of them will become renowned, not only as men of great intellects, enterprising spirits. hot as benefactors of their race as men who raised their drooping and almost tor pid and lifeless State, to the position Of one of the most happy and flourishing commu nities in the world.

Their mineral interests are ia almost all respects identical. In some respects, it seems to us, that our facilities as a manu facturing people are an valuable as theirs. What interest, then can North Garoliaa have in desiring a change in the present Tariff system of the Government ! None whatever, or rather, it seems, to us, that she has more need of protection than her Northern sister. Without this, she never become asm what n that she should become.

It was my purpose to state ay beJwf that our unsuccessful attempt at revolution must be regarded as rebellion, and, if judi cially considered and applied to individual cases, mast subject each off miar to the peruiltics of treason.
