V I ' , Can He Beat Governor Vance 1 The Standard and JProgrresSttrue to their instincts, hope . to deceive the people by denunciation, abuse and misrepresentation, on the one hand, and by brag 'and bluster, oirthe other. Mr. Holden denounces Gov. Vance and, his supporters, in order to draw down upon himself the abuseof Gov. Vance in retal iation. He does not fear what can be said of him, for he alleges that te p'eople will elect him trium phatly in August next. Thereforehe and bis friends intend, impossible, to provoke persecution.. Failing to famish a reason to the people why they should 'prefer him to Gov. Vance, he. -would be glad to have the chance to work up their sympathies to his sup port. But this res'o't may fail him, and hence by his confident boasting of success, hopes that a portion of the vote which usually seeks the strong sidp, may be cst for him. tt. : i i r ' :n r.:i u : nn.l ; xaio ujmiuviuijr iu cicwiiuna win tail iiiu unci iji u this contest. ..The people or North Carolina of all parties, have unshaken confidence in the patriotism and abi.iiy of Gov. Vance. They believe him to be the man for the titups. This confidence they have not in W. W. Holden. His political cgurse.has been so wiery, unstable and unreliable, they cannot trust him. The recent developments in regard to his Con - vention movement, together with other collateral facts, are fast settling down his former friends to be lieve, that he is not a true fiicnd to the interest of -Jforth Carolina and of the Ccnfederacy. The admis sion on the part of some of his few supporters, that, if Grant whipi Lee, Holden stock will rise, and the littl gratification that our recent successes seems to give that class of his friends, are operating powerful ly to.convthcft tho true Conservatives of North Car lina that Mr. Holden's election, would be the great est evil that could just now befall the State. Yet the Standard arid the Progress continue to affirm that Holden will beat Vance boih in the array and at home. Let us see. Whatever wo may desire it. i3 ' not to ihc interest of Gov. Vance or bis friends to aim ' to-deceive the people? If Jlr.Holden is the deliber ate and unbiased choice of tha people of North Caro lina,'we are. suro Gov. Vance would not desire 10 force himself upon them. But the evi ience i5? over whelming, that Go?. Vance is still the choice of a large majority of fhe people of the State. It will be admitted that if Mr. Holden can be elect ed, it must be by the votes of the Conservatives those who elected Gov. Vance two years ago, and who were his friends up to the time that Mr. Holden declared himself a candidate. Mr. Holden cannot expect a vote from those who voted for Col. John- SlOO two years ago. n uity rum ui uii,,ii i uuuti stood they w.ll vote for Gov. Vance, unless they bring out a candidate of their own in the field. Tbey will vote for Gov. Vance under protesf, declaring that they do.net endorse his political opinions, but - " that they prefer him to Mr. Holden, because of their greater confidence in his patriotism and fitness for tne omco. t . Mr. Holden must therefore gat his vote from the Conservatives from a p-irty he is laboring to divide and scatter a party whose elements, he declared wM.e;i.sl Va Kbat marsriil rtnf rJ vchirh tn f. irm n great party ever known in North Carolina..

Holden, the head and front of the schism in the party for selfish ends, by voting for him f We do not believe it. . What then is the evidence upon which" the Stari dard, and the Progress base their declarations of suc cess for $Ir. Holden in August next ? A few private letters and the verbal statements of a few devoted friends of Mr. Holden constitute the entire evidence. Was it ever, known that a great party like the Con servative ever changed its entire front in a few months undertbe lead of one man ? Never never. Is tbare a county in the State in which Mr. Holden can claim a msjonly ? Is there a county which will lect'" Holdenites, a full ticket to the Legislature 1 That one which isjiamned with most confidence is Randolph, and yet even Randolph is uncertain. Da vidson, Guilford, Foraythe, Stokes, Wilke, Surry, IredaU, Burk and RatherTord, which have been claimed for Holden are now understood to be strong for Vance. From every quarter of the Sttte our !n formation is most encouraging for an overwhelming vote for Gov. .Vance. 'The idea at one time rcjied jt that the Holden men were still, would not talkj, has been exploded, since they .have become, the few that'-therer, ai butant and open mouthed a any! otner persons. ' rrom the army our information is of the same encouraging character, :. ; If there be.Etolden i in theCarmyrbrlathom men Tery few of verystilC They are not'stillas-is eTi- acnt from tneir present vaunuog. Let not the friends of GorVnce' regard :the loud boasting of the Holdenites.. Never was Got. Vance stronger before the people than now.' 'Never did they see the necessity to be.greater for him to be in the "Executive chair than at the present. His vote in August will astonish 1 the country, after the gross charges which have been made against, the loyalty of LourTpeople. Tbey are loyal they aretrue tolthe cause and tbey. will, show ltby ihe large .vote wnicn they will give Gov. Trance. ? Cor. Tancef . Prospects - If there be thosewho have harbored any doubts or misgivings as tfc "the election i of Gov. Vance in August, let; them be undeceived. Gov. Vance will not only be elected,i)ut lie will be elected, by a very large majority. He is gaining ground every day.j The few, who, a short time ago, were in doubt as to bis true position owing to the misrepresentations of the Standard and Progress, are now entirely satis fled with Gov. ' Vance, and will support him with the same cordiality theyj did two years ago. In the western countieF, in which he has lately addressed the papple, everybody almost, without distinction of partyj will I yield him a'cordial and zeal ous support." In the town of Asheville, Buncombe county, he addressed a very large assemblage of the people on Friday last, and succeeded in giving entire satisfaction to his hearers, not one of "whom, so far as we could learn, will vote against him. There was only one man in the town of Asheville who had de clared or intimated an intention to vote against Gov. Vance, and after hearing, his speech declared he would vote for him withthe utmost cheerfulness. If Mr. Holderi has any self-respect, or if be would reinstate himself in the confidence of the people, let him" withdraw from the canvass. If hecontinues to run he will as certainly be beaten, as that night follows day. Let him withdraw,! give In his adhesion to Gov. Vance, and do away with the political excitement that has been caused by his factious opposition. This is no time for political warfare. Thq exigencies of the hour require that all should bo united and' har monious. If Mr. Holdon has ears, let him hear. 3r. Holden and Vice President Stephens. We subjoin a letter addressed by an intelligent, respectable and responsible gentleman in Rocking ham counly.to Gov Vance, in which it win be seen that Mr. Stephens disagrees altogether with Mr. Holden about the propriety of calling a Convention, as a means of bringing about peace. We do not give the name of the writer, but will do eo, if neces sary : , Rockingham Co., N. C, May lCif1864. Gov. -Vance - -'f ; ,- j Dear Sir ; At a crisis like the present, Jj conceive it to be not only the right, but the duty of every good citizen, lo expose the, errors of all such as aspire to positions of honor and responsibility. As Mr. VV. W. ll(ddtn is now a candidate for the Executive chair of our noble old State ; and as he is endeavoring to ride into place and power by proclaiming to the country that he stands upon tho same platform which our gifted and popular Vice President occupies, I -take the liberty of stating to yon, that such assumption is without foundation. I have just heard it from Mr. Stephenson's ov,;n lip3. Mr-iSt.ephens was rold that Mr. Iloidrtth id pubiishod his (Stephen's) speech, and gent it out as an" electioneering document, and that Hclden assei ted in an editorial, that he (Stephen's) and himself wero upon tho same platform. Mr. Stephens promptly replied, i that he kriew but little of Mr. Holden or his politics, but had understood that he was in favor of a Convention of the State as a means r.f bringing about peace that if such was his plan, he was radically wrong that - he had j read an extract to the speech delivered by. Gov. Vance in layencviiie tnat neneartuy concurrea in tneviews'H takeu In that speech." This i substantially what Mr. Stephens said.; Now, let Mr,1 Holden look out for some other plank, for Mr. "Stephens will nthave him upon hi.-v ! ' ' : Mr. Hoyden Complimented. The Confederate of yesterday, speaking of the very able arguments now progressing before the Supreme Court touching the habeas corpus, alludes to Hon. Nat. Royden in the following complimentary lan-. guagc: . - : : , r "We were present to hear Mr. Boyden. In the character of a lawyer, Mr.TBoydcn appears to ad vantage. No flight of birds enlists his fancy. No desire of imitation disturbs his natural pose and ats tjtude, and no passion or prejudice which mars his efforts as a politician, svays. his judgment and les sens his influence. ! As a lawyer eiigaged before a high 'Court, he is. a calra, agreeable, but forcible and logical ressjner, a student thoroughly versed in his case, who puts his points with courteous but telling effect It were insincere to withhold from Mr. Boy den the attnbutes-of a powerful advocate, and the qualities of a strong reasoner before a court in Banc. In this connection we I may state, Mr. Boyden will certainly vote for Gov. Vance His influence, i with that of Gov. Graham, and all the other leaders of the Conservative pirty, will be used against the self inaugurated pretensions of Mr. Holden, (tbe only thing about him that will evere inaugurated, by the by.) It is as impossible for Mr. Boyden to support Mr. Holden, as for water to flow-up hill or whiskey in the hand of an accustomed drinker,, to keep from going down his throat.'' j; ; "e' gr" The State Journal is terribfy disgrupted, becauJe of an article that appeared in this paper, a few days ago, in which a statement Wi.s made, to the effect, that tee same influences that surrounded that paper, when published here, seemed to surround the Confederate at this timeJ The State Journal aplur ges through a whole column, in the regular flshs mirket style, and winds up by declaring that the ar ticle iu question is net worthy of notice.

' Governor. of KoriK Carolina: VWe, the undersigned citizens of -- county, represent to yourExcellency that we vieav with ins digiiation and alarm the encroachments of Congress ai.d the Executive on the sovereignty of the State and the constitutional rights of the citizens, which neither plighted faith, the sanctity of contracts, nor the! guarantees .of the Constitution serves f o restrain, the! inevitable tendency .of which,' Unless t speedily checked's to overthrow civil liberty and the estab lishment cf a military despotism. In order that North Carolina may be prepared to protect herself against the arbitrary and oppressive measures of the Executive and Congress, which seems to be controlled by reckless men who are res ponsible to no Constitution ; therefore we most res pectfully urge your Excellency to,couvene the Legis lature at an early day, lor the purpose of calling a State Contention, to take into consideration euch measures as may be most conducive to th welfare, prosperity, and happiness cf-the people of this State, and that your Excellency lay before tho Legislature this memorial. s SALt v, January 4th, 1864. Gentlemen Eeliering it to be very important that j an early movement should bs mide to save North J Carolina frona the utter ruin with which she is i threatened by the oppressive measures of Congress and the Executive, and desiring the benefit of your council, and a full and free interchange of views as to the best rriode of accomo'i'shins- so. desirable a re- ! suit, and desiring concert of action ; we have taken, the liberty of addressing you and . others of sound judgment and sagacity in various pmrt? of the State, with a sincere hope, thai, by such an interchange of I opinions, we may be nb'e to settle down on some i common plan which may relieve our State from the! terrible doom to which she is fast approaching! j Gur people in this section of the State are dissat I istied, and urge tht something may be done. They feel outraged and indignant at the Cyrannicil and oppressive measures which the Executive and Con gress have imposed and arc imposing upon a onco free and happy people, the inevitable tendency, of. .which (and we fear the design of mary,) is to over throw every principle of State sovereignty and civil liberty, and the establishment of a military despot ism wun a aictator at irs neia. , Restless adventurers in Congfess from Kentucky; Missouri, Aennessee, iouiswna, Western Virgini q, and other places, (the tools o"f the Executive,) are imposing burthens on North Carolina, and tho rem nants of a few other States, where alone their op pressive law's can be enforced, which are heavier than the people can bear. Neithir private rights, tne sanctity ot contracts, nor Constitutional restric tions, present any barrier to their oppressive legisla tion. The question now prcsentsiitself, as to what is the remedy for these evils ? Oiir people see none except by a State Convention. They are exceeding- ! ingly anxious tor it. We do not think there are a j hundred. persons in Forsy the county -who are not i in tavorot a ConveiKion, e?en men who have always favored sc cession are for it. If this is the best plan, then how are we to succeed in getting a Convention? We have thought memeriil3 numerously signed ad dressed to the-Governor, calling on him to convene the Legislature, would be the most effective way t'o get it, (and in this we desire their and your opin ion) then let a few printed copies be ssnt to each county for circulation. There are enough men who have furnished substi tutes, whose rights have been invaded by Congress, and others who will take an interest in their circu lation. ' " . The masses are extremely anxious that something should be done soon for the salvation of tue country. We desire your opinion on these matters at your earliest convenience.

ABUSING MR. IJOLDEN S FRIENDS. Ma. Editob The Progress of yesterday in forms the public that a "perfect reign of terror is raging beyond the Blue Ridge, that deserters or tones are prowling through the country murdering peaceable men and robbirfe belnless women, besidoa committing all sorts of minor depredations. This i3 true no doubt, but, didn't the Progress know that these same depredators were Mr. Holden's friends, and would be, his.supporters inthe comin election r looe sure they are, for, has not the his tory tDf desertion and skulkiner in this State, thus far, demonstrated the fact, that all the esertsrs and sauiKers are tioiden men, and sympathisers with the Progress! To be sure.1 And yet the Progress calls these men rooOerf zna murderers. Truly this is the unkind eat cui oi aiitt especially as these very men are ex pected to go to the polls on ihe first Thursday in August and vote for Mr. Holden, the Progress" can didate.

" -i I MATTERS ABOUT PETERSBURG MONDAY NIGHT 9 O'CLOCK. -. . i To-day, about one of the longest in the year, passed over Petersburg unbroken by scarcely an incident worthy of nrte. Instead of being a stormylday, it was one ot almost unbroken repose. A few shells were fired into the town, and fell without dojing any damage in different localities, without much regard to the points of the compiS3. Rumors, even, were less plenty than' usual, and met with much less credit than usual, for everybody seemed impressed fully with the belief that the defence of this vital point was in the-hands of those who by the blessing .of God will hold it against the vandal host now threat ing to take it-by the throat. As to the movements of our troops, and preparations made to beat back the. foe, information must be looked for from some other quarter than this office. If, at this time, we really di 1 " know a thing or two," we should take especial care not t4 tell " a thing or two." Time will show. With the little firing going on of either artillery or 3mall arms, there must have been but asmall num ber of casualties to-day. LATER 11 P. M. ; A walk to Bollingbrook Hill the eastern point of Petersburg proper from which we have just re turned, only revealed to us a valley, and the hills surrounding it, enveloped in a"sulph rQas canopy," "Bat shall ioe " see another sight, When the drums, beat at dead of night, t Commanding fires or death to light " The darkness of the scenery ?" We rather think not, inasmuch, as "Ihe iron tongue of Itmehas tolled the hour of twelve on the sonorous bell metal' Strangling musket firing was heard in a-southeasterly direction, showing that sharp-shooting or picket fir.ng was going joiifeebly and faintly. Artillery was as silent as the- grave. Up to this time, we can hear from no source of any casualties, tnough doubtless the sharp shooting and picket firing didsonie work in the way of deaths and wounds and captures. Before' closing to-night we will venture on one speculation; j;o wjt : !The enemy will not attempt to get to the 5-5outh of Petersburg. We have our mili tary reasons for thinking that he knows better than to try that movement just at this time. Petersoiirg Register. " . . - in. ; . GENY. GUSTAVUS W. SMITH'S STAFF. Gen. G.
