& THE WILMINGTON JOURNAL,. COFElHiSlATE STATE)? OF AJtSaiCA. lyimiKGTON, w. c, patusday. sspt. sr lgsi. , Osk woald think, to Bee the itcm3 cppied from the Northern papers, that Wilmington wis a "perfect fcor uet'ff nest, swarming wbh cruisers shortly to isiu forth dJ cticg the Yankee commerce to death. We ,e.!l know how much and bow littb trutii there is in this, and so we reed say ro more. The Northern papers do not themselves believe half of what they say they are simply acxiou3 to get cp sac'a a pressure 3 will com pel Lincoln to get up cn tspeditien fo attack, ani, i; possible, ccpture th:3 place, tkes crurLing all chance cl fitting out Confederate cruiecrs, and at th2 same tics putting an end to the running ci the blockade. We have noticed this pressure in favor cl an attack upon Wilraingtoa, and we that that cur antLoritics Lave cot rllovcd it to ecccpa thsir observation. It 13 also said, and pessibly not witheuUruth, that tie Eng lish part.zana cr the North, fccladio' Earl E'j3ix and Lord Lyons, ia arstver to tie r mou2tracc:3 of Reward in reference to tie ranting cl the blockade by British clips and British subjects, LiV2 sagge-sled the capture ol Wilm-nlca rz i ke'y to tUxd the most ob vious and conclusive Eolation of existing d.f2:u!tits cn ! that t-cora. We are strongly inclined to believe that this U BO. The enemy's petition t.crces the Petersburg read would appear to fcvor cv? ccsiga cl this kitd whxb be might entertain, by rcnlerirg th3 moving cr troops Bomewkat sicker. Eat ve dcubt vrkeiher this ought to ba regarded as amcuntbg to anything serious. If vre are to bn attacked it will net 'probably h?ppen be fore the main Virginia cimp dga is ever, and the road will most probably le open by tLat tlmecn a suffi cient number of troops hi at car eiepcsiil for defence, to hold ia cb?ck any force they cm send for c2:nce. ters and editors, of the Confederacy (one-half hare al ready laid down their lives) ace willing to do what they caq in the field as soon aa circumstances may f how that their services there are more valuable to the Confeder acy tfcan in their present civil avoc&tiocs. . At least we tnicK tuey are as willing ai moat people. So far as we can ace; if McClillax, or any other war Democrat ol his military ability, ia to 1 the nom inee of the Chicago Convention, it is our interest that he snculd be defeated. Of two tvi:i we prefer tochooae A tne leat. If subjugation were included in our pro gramme, perhaps subjugation by McClilun might Vx- 1 I. A.

Bat it not included in the programme of any tru; Southern man, and therefcre, for oar part, we can see no real difference between Liscclh and McClkllax. Either of thtm must be defeated by any people situated as the pccple of the South are ; and as the least able mrtn of tfc.2 two, we think Lixcoln is the least of tie two evili. The pscp'e of the North have cot yet re alized the necessity cf letting na go. Seme individuals do, but no party does. Neither Yaiaandiqham, Lojvg, VODKHEXS, TOU SBTMOUa, FkABX PlIRCK, no."

This combination will appear together to night, the proceeds to ba de voted to aach patriotic objocts as General Warma may indicate. To Ehow the combination of talent it is only necessa ry that we should name Mis3 Ella Wrxx, Mrs. F. M. Bat23, Mr. Walteb Kibble, Mr. Edmoxd R. Dal ton, Mr. Hab&y Macaethy, Mr. Charlss Mcetox and Mr .
