In neither of these eases was the adw-rer allowed

of that preamble, he goes on to say, that it has
been his "unalterable purpose to prosecute the

ed with ihe utmost energy, with a view lo its

that autliority be granted to accept the services
of. and grant a bounty to, such of the volunteer
now in Mexico as may agree lo remain after their
present terms expire, which will soon be Uie esse
with many of them. They would be more effi

reparation of rrtrRctiug ita slander. So much for
its "articles of faith" of which it prates.
Ia the last Carolinian we find Uie following,
said lo be copied from Uie Richmond (Va.) Repub
lican, being the first itilitnatiou we had of a mis
take of ounc
A sussse. The Fayetleville (N. C.) Obser
ver, ia referring to the appointment of Officers iu
Virginia, says: " I he field UHiceni selected were
neither from counties which furnished Volunteers,
nor were Uiey Volunteers lhensrlves.M This ia a
mistake. Col. Hamtramck commanded coin-
pauv of Riflemen, whose service he tendered, and
Jefferson County aud Berkeley (adjoining) each
furnished a ooawpuny one fifth of Uie Kegiaieuu
Lieut Col. Randolph was from Warren, ouly oue
county distant from these. Maj. Early, of Frank
lin, was engaged in raising a oompany al Uie time
of his appointment, and brought with him from bis
distant county 25 men, and iu a ft w days would
have had his company full, if be had not been ap
pointed lo a higher poet, and drawn offal once U
head quarter.
In relation to Col. Haratrauck thia would teen
to show that we were wrong. But it bj not so.
Col. Hsmtranek commanded a company of rifle
men; but riflemen not being wanted by the de
partment, the company, as we think we remem
ber, was not accepted. They hacked out, as did
the Editor of Ihe Carolinian. (He and his com
pany were llie very first in North Caolina ta vol
unteer, last Summer. But somehow or other he
is here still, and the regiment is off.)
