' ' January. lms month, the nrst ol the year, was added with February to the previous tett months of the year by Numa. it was named from the double-faced god, Janus, to whom its first day, which looks back upon I the year, . past and forward to that to come, was sacred. Janus, in the mind of the ancient Romans,' presided ! over the beginning of everything, and was therefore invoked on every occasion before all other deities. He opened the y ear and the seasons; he was the janitor of heaven and on earth ther guardian god cf gate and doors. At the dawn of every day the people addressed their supplications, to him, and on the first day of jevery year sacrifices of cakes, barely, incense and wine were offered in his honor on twelve altars. The month which was named .for this deity was not unif ormly the beginning of the year, among the Latin ' Christian nations till the eighteenth century, the year being in several countries reckoned from March 1, or other dates. The Colored Military. Yesterday's Raleigh News tells us: Companies A and B of the 5th Battal ion Nt C. S. G. colored, under command of Lt. Colonel Geo. L'. Mabson, arrived in the city last nightk from' Wilmington via Hamlet, at 9.3.0 p; m. The two com- mads numbered some 50 men, and were accompanied by a band of 15 pieces , A detachment from one of tho Fayetteville companies in the same Battalion came in ai the same time. !The troops were' met by the colored commands of this city and escorted to quarters in the court house, which' the authorities had kindly placed at tbejir disposal, for the night. Four companies wil parade to-day, numbering about 155 men, rank and file. These troops constitute only a portion of ! the colored niilitary of the State. There are in all nine companies of .infantry, armed, equipped and uniformed, and organized into two Battalions. Tho two 'companies at Fayetteville, tho two at Newbern and the; one at Charlotte, -woroiinableto come, owing to pecuniary considerations. rrne troops present will be reviewed at 10 J o'clock this morning by His Excellency Gov Vance and a portion of his staffJ After this the troops will take part in the ceremonies of Emancipation Day. t " List of Letters., The following is the list of letters re maining: unclaimed in the Postoffice, Wil mington, .-N.

StreCt. ; . .i ...'.J- ''j The meeting .this, evening, wUI b; a regular "business meeting, held in accord ance with the provisions of the constitu tion and by-laws of tho Association. : But there i s another in terest, to be attached to this? meeting of the'AssociatiQri to-rfight, and it is a matter that, ought- to- .engage therattention of all N9rth Carolina soldiers who served their country duriDg the late war; ancl one tt'ail nvd aUke.;Jntcrcsted in -the matter we have reference to is a history of the record that, N.. . C. troops made during the. war.' Eaqh organization is expected to furniah, to Col.;! Winston, who has generously volunteered to under take the task bf compiling and writing a history of the part, borne by N. C. soldiers during the war, all the data pos sible in its own particular record. SiUr. Thos. F. Wood, who served. as Assistant Surgeon of the Third Ni C, Infantry during the last tWo ; years , cf our , ' civil sttife, has kindly consented to prepare' a history of this regiment, and some action, we understand, isj to bo taken to-night for the furtherance of this loblect, and to render all possible aid to Dr. Wood in his laudable" undertaking, and we hero now make the appeal in behalf of . Dr. Wood and? the Association of Officers of the Third N; C. Infantry, to all former members of this regiment to forward, to Dr. "Vood's address at .nce. auy information concern ing the history of this command from itsfirst Organization on the 16th if May, 1861, to its surrender at Appomattox on the 9th'day of April, 18G 5, that they, are in possession of. , ! It certainly is the duty of all North Carolinians ' who bore arms duriug the four years of terrible ; war that ' our peo ple were engaged in from '61 to '05' to put on record the part they acted, so tbat uture generations will not be misled by the willful misrepresentations of prejudiced iters in Vireinio, nn'd- especially do we consul .msa fluty that lis prth Carolina soldiers owe to .themselves I auu to pos terity in view of recent events, wherein-a Virginian by the" name of Walter II. Taylor, who held the sank of Licutqnant Colonei on Gen. Lee's staff, has sought by misrepresentation in a published book to throw discredit upon the conduct of North Carolina soldiers to ment of Virginia troops at the advance- thc battle of Gettysburg, and this, -.too' ' in the face of the fact that promirXentlNorth Carolinians, who participated iji that st jugglej as well as other distinguished soldiers from other States (Maj. GenJ Trimble,of Marylarid, among the number), have testi fied of their own' personal knowledge, to the contrary of Col.. Tayiyr;s statement. ' ' , Col. Taylor, it must'i bo understood, was necessarily from the position he oc cupied," precluded fronji participating in every battle, and indeed wej think we may safely say that he was seldom under fire for any cohsiderabIelength .of' time J and then only the time that was possibly con sumed in going . jrom army headquarters to that of the corps commanders; r and whe we consider that there were so many subordinate officers ready' and waiting to do their chief's bidding, it is natural 'to sup pose that even this occurrence of his being the bearer of orders from the commanding General, waa very rare indeetl. (!ynse- quently, whqn he .wntes of the partj borne in the ever -memorable by. certain troops battle of Gettysburg, he docs n'Ct.M'ritM of scenes that, he par,icipatel in,; while those who have contradiclctl'his- staterieat do declare of their own personal knowledge, havipg participated in the events referrel to, ithat Col. Taylor's ttatements are not correct, lit is to preserve this kstizaoby therefore, and to protect oursdlves frotri the injiistvee of 'prejudiced statements, that Col.
