', It has been a chief concern of this paper to induce the people of Eastern North Carrlina t guard against surpri.se. .None but our constant readers can be con vinced of the accuracy with which we have pointed the loses and dangers to which they were exposed and the surest if not the only means of averting them. The fortunes of war are always doubtful. The vic tors of to-day may be the vanquished of to-morrow. The Confederate arms have passed through a scries of ict,or'us which ' hare carried joy to every Southern heart. The brilliant achievements of Lee's army in front of Richmond, and thence to Sharpsburg, put a stop to the offensive operations of the ffenj on our. coast, or connned them to narroy nums. had to withraw his forces from Nonh Carolina to save McClellan from utter.ruin in Virginia, and to defend .the Capital of the Northern tiespotism- Bat from the time that BuVnside's fleet first cast anchor in our wa- . tcrs, the losif iruperty, by fire and theft, has been enormous, i ' - Tt is needless now to say how much of tins proper ty might have been saved, by placing it beyond the icath of the enemy. Had prudence ami wisdom been nronerlv consulted, four-fifths of what has been lost ' would, this day, have been in the possession of owners. To save what remains on our coast and nyfs ought" npw to concern every man in the State asA ell ilio mm wluisft nrunertv is out oi daoser s yfe xm ...V- . , - j- . w mediate proprietor. Our rivers will soon be navigabJagAin for the criemy's gunboats. Their nnta(?rs, we all know, is limitless. It will necess-ilybe thcijr object to pene trate into 4he interior wherever a bUit cau float in Valety., The w note negroes and stock and crops of the eastern counties, as far west as' the Wilmington nnd Weldon Il-iUroad, unless removed, will be compa ratively at their mercy. It may be impossible tor tlie Confederate Goverutncit to afford the necessary pro tection, i&aview of the .numberless points to be de fended. The State Government cannot do it. If the forges of the Coi . feileratc Government can cope 'successfully"with tlx powerful armies of McClellan and Bucll and others of minor importance, the com inir winter, thev wi i be 'doing wonders. JTo do this, it . will obviously vvixe the active co-operation of every State, ami ;1 the resources which every Stitte I can furnish. & If v e would not see tlie war transferred - ; to our own doors, Richmond must be successfully de- fc'ntled, Lee's an )y m ust be fostered, sustai ned, rc cruited, in order to improve the victories and retain the prestige it has already acquired. That army de feated in Yirgir .a, the tide of war would rapidly roll jpto North CaiVlina; and GckI only knows at what : point" its dest-uctive surges would be stayed. They ivould not bo' .jJundec by the coasts of the ocean nor the banks of our rivers, but might roll at the base of four remotest mountains ! , I The prof ress of the war ; thus f.r has taugjit us tLat where er our army gogs, the enemy is obliged to 'follow, it is no idle delusion to say, that Iee's army Jin Yirginia and Br.-gf-'s in Kentucky might be so ' strengthened as to render it almost impossible for the "enemy to make'any serious inroads the coming win- . . ' . . ... . . ter on our own soil or that of other Atlantic States. It would be a 6trange iufatuation, then, which would seek to weaken our main armies in other States, under : the plea of defending our own homes. He must be blind indeed to his own interests, whocannot perceive that the surest and safest way to defend his house, is , to meet and cpuquer the enemy at the gate. Ever) bat- I tie fought in Virginia, Kentucky, Maryland or Tennes- see, is a battle fought for North Carolina. A victory f for the Confederate arms in the remotest part of Ar-" kansasjor Missouri, is a victory, for North Carolina. ' Every drop of Southern blood that flows in this war, lwhatever spot of earth it stains, i3 poured out in part ;. for North Carolina.. If Providence has decreed that I the mighty armias of the country are to carry on I their terrible operations in other States, while marau ding parties liarrass our own, let us be themore thankful. If the fortune of war roll it!? tremendous billows over our own State, carrying death and desoH ?i lation in its track, let us still be patient aud 'hopeful, trusting in God for ultimate deli ve)-ance. When in evaded in force by the enemy, we may rest well assured that all the resources of the Confederacy will be em- ployed to resist such invasion, s But in the mearr time what ought our people to do 2 for themselves ? On our coast and rivers, their ne . grocs, stocky and crops are exposed to imminent daijfc I ger. What can be removed mi ght to be removed with out hesitation or delay. In doinfe it much loss and f great inconvenieuce will necessarily be sustained. But ! it is betteV to save half than lose all,. When Roa i noke fell, we gave the same advic s which wenow ut ter. Since that period, millions of property have fallen unnecessarily into the hands of the enemy. - Let us f all take warning ot tho past Let the crops be hous X ' ed and their surplus be converted into money as soori f as possible. Let the stock and tho negroes be re ; moved into the interior, and let nothing remain to sa- tiate the thievish propensities of the enemy or invite ? the incursions of his rapacious hordes. ' AVe are not X ignorant of the difficulties in tlie way of the plan pro- posed, but let' us call to mind the difficulties aud dan gers which oor armies and our Generals have to en counter, and it will tend greatly to decrease our own. AH who would save their negroes . must choose eocn AI who woma ""gi between their loss and their removal ip, a ptac greater safely. ,-V- b r. . : -r- . . . We invite attenJion. to7 tbe laws of the last session of Congress in to-day's paper, Gen. Stuart Among the Yankees. r ; ' ;Tbe raid of Gen. Stuart into Pennsylvania, as An nounced by the Yankee papers, has taken Sotithemers by surpTi-e as imuKh aa it did : their repudiated, and disowned Yankee cousins.. We transfei the Yankee account of this dashing affair to ouVolamns,- and the remarks of the Fhiladelphia Gazette of- last Sat urday in relation thereto. It will show our readers and the whole country that the boastful lying Yan- kees do not consider "an invasion of tneir jwn! homes an impossibility and that the bare, contemplation of such an event throws them into the utmost trepidation , and alarm. The bid women of the South can con template the invasion of their homes with rnor man ly resignation and fortitude. - Stuart has again turned McClellan's flank ; and the Yankees have every rea- son, to believe, that he is only opening a path for the ubiquitous Jackson. Oh, for 200,000 men with all the munitions and appointments of war to reinforce Lect He would then bring the Yankees to terms in less than six months. . y v f'- u , Adjournment of Congress. - Both Houses, of the Confederate Congress adjonrnr ed last Monday, after a session of nearly two months, to meet again on the second Monday in January. Of course, much important business was transacted ; but, on the wiole, we doubt whether much good has re sulted to the country. Much has been left undone aud more has been don? which, time will show, ought to have been let alone. The members from North Carolina, generally speaking, have about as little to answer for, in the general deUn nquecy, as those of any other State. They gene rally observed a commendable silence n mid .the una vailing debates, and when they did speak, it was gen erally io the purpose. Tf we may be pardoned for noticing a 6peeial case, the Hon. R. R. Bridgers did himself great credit in the speech be dejivered on the uncalled tax bill. To his sound arguments and prac tical illustrations is mainly attributed the defeat of the ' bill ; but whether for good or evil, we are not prepared to say. We have gfeat confidence in Ir. Bridgers' judgment and even more in his patriotism, and are ready to believe that his - opposition io the bill was well 'founded. After having been recommitted to the Committee of Ways aud Means who reported it, it was rtot subsequently acted on previous to adjournment. What the consequence will be, we are not" prepared to say. , -:- " Yankee Papers. We are indebted to a friend for a copy of the Bos ton Daily Transcript of the 27th ult aud of the Newbern, Yankee Progress of the 3rd inst, The Progress has an article bn "the War spirit in North Carolina," which is quite characteristic, o;f the lying Yankees. It affects to learn by the arrival of a g"n boat from the "Albemarle couutfy of the rapid growth and development of fighting Union sentiment in that vicinity." "It appears," it says, "that the counties of Tyrrell, Washington, Martin, Bertie, Hertford, ,'jrates, Chowan, Perquimans, - Pasquotank and C.mi den, are forming an or&inizatiuii, not only for self- protection agaiust rebel guerillas, but tor the purpose , of expatriating all the rebel families frQtn their limits." It also says that "a petition, extensively signed by , the Unionists of these coueties, has already been u. D TTr,;H States f,.r nnthori- ; seiiL li i lilt: 1 l uciik ni . - - i ty to carry out these purposes" and tioners promise the President a loyal bat "the peti- regimeut from each of these counties which are to be maintaiued as j a standing army to enforce these objects. .' Of course, the Progress has the report of the gun boat fir authority; and even that's 'more than Pope acd'McClellau can say, in vindication of tjieir lying reports. It is charming music to the ears! of South-' ern men, to hear! such fabrications trumpcted -forth as truths, when they know them to be upmuigaten Yankee lies. That there are' traitors' in the Aloe- marl rpirinn nnbodv rjreteuds to denv. but that all ...... .W . , J t the counties naracu wiu iurmn iuo Abraham the fiend, one loyal regiment, is simply Yankee nutmegs. - i mi i. xi.- nit : xr; The Progress is rejoicing over "forty conscripts wno came in a body and enlisted in one of the companies . . . . . r,f thA Nnrlli Carolina Union V tlunteers; wlucU also gives it '-strong faith in North Carolina Union- ism. North Carolina has certainly given strong man- ifesttions of its Unionism at Bethel, Manassas, in front of Richmond, Manassas again, at Harper's Ferr rv. Sharpsburg and Shepberdstown. It is a loyal old I . . . .a. 1. 1 i i : i i State, but its sons prize noeny too mgu, naviug ouuS.,v it with their blood, to surrender it to the will of Yan- kee despots. Even if forty conscripts have sold them- selves to Lincoln the fiend and Butler the Brute, there are ftctce forty thousand freemen in North Carolina who will never submit to be robbed aud ruled by Yankee despots. - . We learn from the Progress that Charles Henry Foster is on the stump, in the Albemarle region, ma- ing war speeches, and surely that will terrify the nation. We hope Foster will have a good time of it and would feel thaUkful if the Progress' would find out and publish bow far be travels beyond the protec tion of Yankee gunboats.

We are glad to learn that General Walter Gwynft has been appointed, by the President, to take charge of am important busi ness in which North Carolina is deeply concerned. We speak somewhat vaguely, as a matter W policy, as the enemy never has learned, and never shall learn, anything from these columns. General Gwynn, like most: other public men.'has received his full share of censure ; justly or unjustly need not now be inquired ; but his devotion to the cause of-the South has never been questioned. He. is how in a position where he can do much good to the State and the Common cause, and convince the public that he has energy and canacitv adapted to the .emergency. We cannot doubt for a moment but that his management and skill, in his new position, will be gratifying to his friend?, and deprive his enemies, if such he has, of all just cause of comphiiut. For ourselves, we dep- recate all unnecessary growling, and especially the spirit that .prevails among non-combatants, loafers, "speculators and' cowards, of passing judgment on public officers. We hope General Gwynn will go vigorously to work and give us all reason to congrat ulate the State and the coiiuiry that he has again re- sumed active duty Wc bespeak for him the enc'our- aging voice of the press aud the active co-operation of the people, and have reason to believe that grati fying results will flow from his labors.

( FROM KENTUCKY. - The news which we publish in- our telegraphic column, to-day,- is unsatisfactory: That a battle has been fought, there can scarcely be a doubt, but it is strange and annoying that nothing can be heard from Gen. Bragg on the subject. The Louisville Journal has deceived the public more than once, and if we cau suppose human depravity to have merged into utter fiendishness we might refuse to believe that the Um- federa'es bad gained a brilliant victory. ' The reliable gentleman left Richmond, Wednesday evening, and reported all tlong theway. and also in Raleigh, where he arrived Thursday morning, that dispatcaes confirming the glad news of a Confederate victory had been received in Richmond from General Bragg. Our Richmond exchanges of Thursday con tradict this rumor and leave us nothing to rely on but the telegraphic news which is based solely on the au thority of the- "gentleman'' who read the Louisville'.- ( Journal. Our own solicitude to knw the whole truth of the affair is as great as that of any of our readers but we must repress our curiosity and beg them to do the same.' We hope even now to hear something movo , . , , . - . i i ... i, satisfactory, before going to press ; but if not, be the result what it may, we will lose no time in laying it before our readers. Our own opinion is that Bragg has been victorious . LATEST FROM KENTUCKY. , As we go to press, a dispatch is received which 6ays that the New York Herald of the 14th states, in reference to the battle of Kentucky, that "the Fede rals held the field, and thai' Bragg and Cheatham were killed " Gold had advanced in New York to 150. We don't believe a word of Bennett's nccount of the fight, or of the killing of Bragg and Cheatham. FROM GEN. LEE'8 ARMY. Everything remains quiet with our army at Win chester and Bunker Hill. On the Coast of North Carolina quietness pre vails, but there seems to be a feverish anxiety in 'the public mind. Qur advice to remove all negroes to the interior, on railroads and farms, cannot be too often repeated. ,j On last Saturday, two Federal vessels lying about four miles from Fort Caswell were fired upon, badly riddled and crippled and driven off by two long range siege guns belonging to Starr's Fayetteville battery. The Wilmington Journal speaks of the firing of our boys as inimitable. The Yankee crafts were in such a hurry to get away, that they only fired three shots. Lieutenant Generals. The President has ap pointed seven Lieutenant Generals, under a recent act of Congress, to command our armies in the field. Report says that McLaws, Polk, Longstreet, Jackson, Hardee, Pemberton and R. IL Anderson are the ap Dointees. The nominations were confirmed by the Senate, in Executive session, but the omciai , use nas vet been published. . THE FEVER IK WILMINGTON SUSPENSION OF, THE JOURNAL. . v ' ' , . The Journal of Monday says that the sudden change to cold on Saturday night had a deadly effect on the 500 pending cases of yellow fever.- The mor tality on Saturday night and Sunday exceeded any thing that had been known since the epidemic com menced. Coffins was the great demand and could not be obtained as fast as the people died. The number of new cases on Saturday was 53, and on Sunday about 40.

Some few months ago we rento'cd on an experiment to ascertain the extent of the desire for ltti news, end start . ed a small telegraphic news sheet the "Daily Telo grapb." The experiment satisfied us that with a proper dc- . rree of enterprise the public might be led to sustain a U Al ly Paper here. We were not at that time prepared for tue step we are now about to take, and discontinued our little . sheet at the close or three month, though it,was the origi nal intention to publuh it ball one month. The "Lilr Telegraph" was soon missed, so much so that a number m gentlemen of Raleigh clubbed, together and are now re- j ceiving the press telegraphic dispatches at eonsideraWrf cost and ttonble. - - .- "- , k It a evident, then, that the public demand mor prompt . intelligence than the mails can furnish, of the stirring events now transpiring ; and In takinglhis step, at so inauspicious a period in newspaper enterprrie,Twe rely upou the State- Eride of North Carolinians which is so frequentlj weuudrd , rtho remark of strangers that the Capital of the State cannot support m Daily Paper the only Capital on toe continent, we beliere, without one. - , It is but just to say, howeTer, that thie state of afuirs in reference to the newspapers of Raleigh Is chargeable as much to a want of enterprise In the newspaper proprietors as to the public. No fair trial has ever yet been mlt! here to sustain a Dailr Paper. Every attempt hitherto -made has lacked enterprise, and, we 'fear, capital. tVe were the first, for instance, who ever attempted to enter the lists with the wealthy and influential Dallies of VI r- .- giniaana outn Carolina, Dearing equally wun lawn . heavy cost of telegraphic news famished to the Associated Pi-mi ThU w)Til wili th littl Hail Telerranh" ' 'this we Drnoe to do with the "Dailr State Journal."
