That we fear will be the fate cf the rose bluihiag from a lilaceous bed ! Shall it be nil that such a flower as the author of the above eloquent extract shall be allowed to blaah anieea. To uie his own eau phatio word, we say Never 1 Is gttd seriousness, we thick the writer of Castioe is not without sufficient talent, nor is the story detoid of interest, but the whole thing ia marred by the am bitions attempt at sentiment and floe writing, the one sinking into maudlin, and the other being too often in fated into bombast and even worse. It is the failing of the times. Oar practised writers and thinkers bave eomething else to do betides writing tales, and few im practical hands bave learned nriatnde moderation the proper fitness of things. Tss inventive genius of the Yankee nation is already improving Blair's mission, by repreaentiog S. B. Je and Jtfiirson Davis as ready to lay down their arms ; so they promulgate at the West. We rather think tbat their people are getting to be about as muoh tired of the war as ours ean be, sad some gag was neecsiary to buoy them op under the idea of an approaching draft. This story may enable Lincoln and 8 sward to tide over the more immediate difficulty. If so their parpoee will bave been served. 1Tb find the following going the roacds of the pa p;rs, aad don't believe a word of It : M It is a no' able fact in crimiaal statistics that so fat man was ever convicted of the crime of murder." A torpid or seared eonieience will permit a man to eat, Bleep and grow fat jait aa will as a cliar eonioience. We bave leen tat too often to credit any sash M fact, la criminal statistics " as the above. North Carolina oaght to be a peaceable State, or if not it satms ai though tba failare could not be ebarged apa the Legislature, which has probably made as many ne jaitices 9f the peace, as there are editors and employees of the press in the whole Confederacy. Some of thiss " new iib " we have no doubt will have a gcod deal to say about the newspapers.
