"""After Governor Chamberlain refused to issue commission to Moses and tho j negro Whipper as Judges in soutn Carolina, it will be remembered that S hipper delivered a vile, filtby speech in the Iifgislature of that State, of ti-h,h be is a member. The speech was improperly spread upon the jour nal of the House, but was afterwards, by order of the House, expuugedfrom its records. Whipper then offered a paper called a "protest" against the action oi ina nu - 4, ,.-. of the Charleston JVews and Courier says an "idea may be formed of the character of the 'protest' when I state that before having it read the Speaker instructed the doorkeepers to have the TT.iTiw ra.l!H!4 cleared of ladies, and to allow none to enter dnriDg the- dis cussion of the matter. It was a vile, fiithy thing, and like the speech which had been expunged, was characteristic of tha 'thing' which had been elected to fill the bench of the Charleston cir cuit. The "Speaker" is a negro as well as Whipper, but bas some regard for de coency. To what times have ve com j General Ord, U. S. A. comminding on the Texas frontier, has testified be fore the ppfcinl committee appointed by the lower H-juso of Congress to en nuire into the bolder trouble. His description of the border country ind of the peot!e who inhabit it, of the canst s that lead to the never ending border troubles, and of the remedy therefor, strikiniy corroborates tbe testimony of Captain McNally, as published some ten days ago in tbe JOTTItNAIi : The colored troops may fight nobly elsewhere, but certainly for the Texas feorder they are worthless. It seems to be the opinion of those bent informed that some nndorstandincr between tue United States and the Mexican govern moot, whereby raiding parties may be followed " across the line without creating a cause for war will be neces sary to put a stop to cattle stealing across the border, unless each govern ment shall station a more efficient force there. The main trouble with the American troops is not so much in their want of numbers as their worth lessness. This is the way Professor Tyndall , proposed to the daughter of Lord Hamilton.

Your own, Tyndab The St. Louis correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial relates a good story now circulating in St. Louis, which may serve to illustrate the diag nosis of Rfibcock's case made by his counsel. One of the attorneys was met by a friend and asked how he was get ting along, how the chances were for his client. ""Well," he said, "if, re minds me of the young doctor called in at a birth, aud who, being question cd as to how his patients were doingf paid: 'Very well; tho child is dead, the mother will die, but I think I can save the old mau.' " The Baltimore Gazette doubts very much whether the conn sel, twelve abreast, can "save the old man." The old man could only have saved himself by goiug out to St. Louis and going on the witness- stand. The written evidence taken under the ad vic9 and protection of counsel is a clear back out, and will be so understood by a grateful country. ' A lady exhibited the other day, at the counter of the Richmond Dispatch, t ; - 7 i i: r.. -i ... e small iadle made out of a buffalo-horn The bottom is of silver-plate, and has the likeness of General Washington engraved upon it.

The New York Herald having asked how it happens that Whigs and Denao oiats have sunk their traditional ani mosities and jealousies all over the South and are found acting together, gives in reply to its own question, a moet faithful por'raiturn of the ex perience of the Southern States under radical jx BayB If we examine thestory of Southern politics duricg General Grant's Presi dency we shall discover reasons quite sufficient to account for this remarka ble coalition, without having to ap pose a spirit inimical to the Union or the general welfare. We shall find that in every Southern State where Re publicans have ruled they have been incredibly wasteful of the people's mOD6y; tuey have robbed tbe tax- payers, until in many piace6 tneir levies amounted to confiscation; they have created vast State, county, city and even town&hip dbts, over and above the heavy taxation; have de stroyed the ere lit of the States they misruled; have brought financial dis grace ana ruin upon many com muuitie, and while thus shamelessly plundering they have neglected all the most important duties of rnlurp; have corrupted the courts of justice, en couraged or tolerated lawlessness and crime, and refused all remedies fur the pooplts's -vrougs. The people of the Southern States would not be Ameri cans, they would hardly be linjran beings, if they rested content u- der such monstrous misgovernmcnt as tl at of their Republican rulers bas bee B it it was uot the plundering alone, the Herald thinks, that united the South; it was th favor shown by G gret-s and the President to the plunder ers as well. Fed'-ral patronage was given to men like SpeLcer, D-rsey Packard, Casy, Ames. When Brooks failed in Arkansas Grant made him postmaster at Little Rock; to a Brooks partizan he gave a consulship and to another, another postoffice. When two Congressional committees overturned the Louisiana Returning Board in 1874 and declared its verdict a fraud Grant appointed Wells the chairman of that Board, to one of the most im-. I portant f ederal offices in the Senate has re I South and the cently confirmed him, when Alabama became Democratic, Hines, a creature of Spencer, was mado U. S. Marshal and could have remained so but for being caugut in frauds in the post office. Mississippi became Democratic and Morton tries to overturn the elec tion. and now that Chamber lain in Carolinft 8eems deBir0u8 of being honest, he is openly denounced at Washington as "no better than a Democrat." To this the Herald might well have added that when W. W. Holden, then Governor of North Carolina, con spired with John Pool and others of the Radical party to overthrow the constitution of North Carolina, and, in pursuance of that conspiracy levied war upon her people, and therefore was impeached, tried and convicted and driven from office in disgrace by tbe highest judicial tribunal known to the laws cf the State, he was first made editor of the administration organ at Washington City and afterward Post master at Raleigh. A TRIBUTE. Some days ago wo recorded the fact that Senator Furlong, of Mississippi, hail contributed $50 toward the erec tion of a monument to Gen. Robert E. Lee. Iu reply to the letter of the Secretary of the Lee Monumental As eociation acknowledging the donation, Senator Furlong, who had been uoionei in the f ederal army, and is now an independent Republican, made the following eloquent response. He said: li tne uomeaerate cause had no other merit, it will at least live in all time through the fame of its soldiers, many of whom, like Lee, possessed vivtues unsurpassed and unsurpassable in the history of mankind, and they. as well as many soldiers of the Union in our late war, have shed new lustre j on the American name. Books may be written, but they may be lost and forgotten, monuments may be erected. but they may be defaced and crumble into dnst; but the pure glory that sur rounds such names as that of Robert E. Lee will survive all existing gov ernments and be the common inheri tance ot an our posterity. II is were possible amidst the storm ages which are now passiug over us that Virginia should lose all place in the history of this country, tradition would still point to that ancient Commonwealth and say, "Here flourished a State whose history commenced with Washington and ended with a Lee. WHAT AUD THEY DOING TI1EKF t Pursuant to a resolution of the House of Representatives the Secreta ry of War has sent to that body a list of the enlisted men of the army em. ployed in the city of Washington last year. It is as follows: Office of Adjutant General 160 Onlce of Chief of JbiUgineers Office of Lieutenant Wheeler United States Centennial Office... Military Division of the Missouri. Office Depot Quartermaster. ..... 4 Office Chief of Ordnance 13 Office Medical Statistics 8 Office United States Dispensary.. 5 Office Chief Signal Officer 146 Total 344 As this small army was not employed in escort duty or in preserving order in Washington, people are asking, What were all these enlicted men doing there ? Are we not a nation ? Certainly we are, and a great and glorious and brave and magnanimous one. True, we have had a narrow escape, but tbe dark cloud that hung like a pall jver the horizon of our happiness has dis appeared and wc are at peace. The great bone of contention that threat -ened -to disrupt our very vitals has been removed and we are happy. It was a sad but a thrilling sight to see the fate of an empire, a vast empire, a mighty nation depending upon the event of a dispute as to whether a dead boy ba' y was named John Wilkes Booth or plain John Wilkes. And the dis pute is not yet settled, but the fate of the empire no longer hangs ic sus pense. The nation survives. As for the boy he died and was buried, yearn ago; and, as for the boy's . father, he has resigned his position of Clerk to the Congressional House Committee of Ways and Means. And there is an end of the matter. , -The . country breathes freer. Are we a - nation ? Certainly we are a nation. What's in a name? - -i v ri;4 IS IT !

The Newbern IHmea, a Radical paper entirely ncebrds with the Southerner in its opinion of the Lr g slatnre. Cornmeiitinir uion the paragrapl quoted from the Southerner the Times says: "Reader, this is Demcrntic testi mony, in comm i.dation of the bigges fraud cttr peioetiated upou our pe - jle, aud they wi.uld be guilty of grosser frauds by foistiug a thing rn u the people to rob them of their lioerties and rights, aud cdl it a Coo st tn tion." The eame Newbern Times, a Radical paper, is also in happy nocord with the Sentinel upon 'he meritsof tbepri-seui Congress, though probably not so pro- nounced in its utterances. It nays: "The Democratic majority in Con crete are now making con-iderab e show over proposed ecouomy in reduc ing the expenses of the public service. and exp- ct by their sham elwrta io ride into national power. Jjike every proposition of a public nature, origi n ited by the Democ acy, this pretence of economy is the veriest humbug; they are loud and ostentatious in their I plans of retrenchment and economy v,ed reduction of the nav of officers but with the exception oi the Hl-ad- of the army, their professions have ended in wind." I We have no comment to make upon I ibo above save to ask if Democratic Legislatures and Democratic Con- gresses are to be abused by friend and foe aline, how long is it probable that Democratic Legislatures and Demo -i cratio Congresses will continue in ex istence ? UKAVr'S B IMPOSITION. He has done it. The President of the United States has solemnly sworn before the Chief Justice of theUnited States that Bibcock never influenced him, and never tiied to influence him, to appoint any of the whisky ring officials; and further, that he never in fluenced or sought to influence, him to revoke the celebrated order by which the Treasury Department sought to send Joyce away Irom St. Louis so that an honest investigation might be had. The President solemnly swears that tho revocation of that order was his own work, and that he did it to lull suspicion and put the St. Louis ring off its guard so that its members might be tha more easily caught. The President further solemnly swears he believes Uabcock is a good man. and true; and further, that he is satis fied with Bab's explanations about tne Sylph aud other dispatches sent to St. Louis. Upon all of this we have onlytwo words to say. First, the question now i3, not whether Grant is satisfied, but whether the jury can be satisfied that Bab is a innocent, verdant fool, the victim of sharpers who wre in high favor with Grant and the Radical party, and who Babcock still asserts to be innocent. Secondly, we have to express our pro found surprise at the reason given at this late day for the revocation of that exchange order. Grant is certain ly a reticent man; strangely reticent, considering his known d isire to acquit Babcook, or be would long ago have given this simple explanation of his oourse. an explanation that if given at an earlier day would have done much to relieve Babcock of the suspicion of guilt that has attached to him. If it be true that the Sacretary of the Treasury in issuing the order and the President in revoking it had precisely the eame end in view, that is to say the detection of the St. Louis thieves, it seems st. ange the President should have remained silent so long when it was apparent to all the wor d that the seeming variance between him and the Treasury department was subjecting his friends to such grave suspicions. Iu these days of fraud, peculation and corruption, in these days of official robbing and steal ing no man can with impunity permit a cloud of suspicion to rest npon his character if he has within his reach the means to clear it np. Whatever may bo thought of the effect of the President's reticence in regard to himself there caa be but one opinion In regard to its effect upon his per sonal friend and private secretary. It is strange that a man so devoted to his friends as tne President is,should have remained silent so long. A LOVAIi CL.A11TI 0K OF THE LEGITIMATE KECU S Of TUE WAU. We have looked in vain, says the Savannah Netos, in the Chicago Tri bune and other Radical papers of the North, whose editors have manifested so much zeal of late in guarding the treasury against all manner of claims from the South, for a single word in condemnation of the most stupendous imposition that has yet been attempt ed in the shape of a war claim. Tt vi 1 1 Yta remembered that, at the evacuation of Richmond, orders were issued by the Confederate authorities to burn and sink all vessels of every kind lying in the James river. In obe dience to these orders, tLe iron-clads Richmond, -Fredericksburg and Vir ginia were blown up and sank at the obstruct on at Drury's Bluff, on Sun day, April 2,' at midnight. The re mainder of th? ships, including the gunboats , Nansemond, 1 . Hampton, Patrick Henry, Roanoke, Beaufort and Texas.except the last two named, were bomed at Richmond the same nifiuk tli- Texm was the uuuuuued liU'l oi large vessel intended to bo entirely plated with iron. K She had no machin ery ur armament. Oa the "eve of -. evacuation she had beu pre t ar d as a fir.ahij by placing o .r decks a large quantity of pine lnm b-r and other combustible matter aud tow -d to Drury's Bluff, wheucn she a to be let loose to drift into the. Yankee fleet; but the plan mi.sca ried, the train laid to fire her went out, and the helpless, unmanned hull drifted down the stream till it lodged on the mud flat, where it lay for several dav after the fall of Richmond. Her esti mated cost w-8 $75,000. She was sold by the United rtti.tes after her pretend ed capture for $3,200 Tne other ves- std, tne Beaufort, was "captured" on the marine railway, opposite dockets, where she was undergoing repairs. She as valued at $15,00J, and was so'd after the capture by the United States for s$3,800. On these two captures the officers and men of the N-rtu Ati.-tutic squadron base their claim for prize money, the schedule of captured prop- j erty being as follows: Value of tho Texas $566,6G6 66 Value of iron plating, etc. . 115.455 00 Value f lumber 150,000 00 Value of the Beaufort. .... 60.0(H) 00 Totii..; $892,121 66 Now when it is considered that Richmond was evacuated aud the shipping destroy. -d or nboudoued dur- Sa.iday night aud Monday m-rn- lug; iuu'j we vuuieuuraie8 uku rciireu. and that the Federal troops occupied the city early on Moudav: that no United Stafes vessel reached the city until the foliowiDg day; that the North Atlantic i-quadrou was at least twtiive m les distaut from the city at the time of the dctstiuctiou f the Confederate iron-c'ads; that no battle was fought, aud tha uot a gnu from the Yaukee squadron was tired when all these things are considered it would seem that such a claim for prize m.juey is pr; posterous that it is indeed akin to a disgraceful fraud. But this is uot the onlv claim of the gallant captors of the abandoned Con federate vessels. It seems that by section 1,685, page 900, of the Revised Statutes, it ia provided that a bounty shall Iw paid by the United States for each person ou board any vessel or sh,P longing to an enemy, at the be- ginning of an engagement, which is sunk or otherwise destroyed in any such engagement by any ship or vessel belonging to the United States, or I which it may be necesscry to destroy I iu consequence of injuries, etc. This- I bounty amount-" to $100 if the enemy's vessel was of inferior force, and to $20O if of equal or superior force, the money to be divided in the same man ner as prize money. The libellauts in the case have taken proof to show that there was on board the ships aud shore batteries co-operating with the ships a force of 5,000, while the forces on the United States fleet was much smaller. Applying this law to facts as claimed to have beeu proved, it is found that the bounty money in store for the oip'ors, should their claim be allowed, U about $1,000,000. This is the character of the claim for prize-money now being prosecuted before the District Court at Washing toil, aud in support of which Lieu tenant Commander Goringe and Ad miral Torter have given their testi mony. We doubt if the annals of war cn furttish a parallel case of unmiti gated j retense and deliberate fraud. The only thing that can be said in its favor is that it is "loyal," and, like rascality in general, may be considered one of "the legitimate results of the war." WHAT WE PU tMil ltl l'1 111,1. ttui.r. The Nashville American says the imperative necessity for th removal of the Republican party from the control of the Government lies in its reckless extravagance and prodigal waste of the public monyj. Aside from the enormous strain upon the produciug classes by reason of tbe financial policy which requires a gold interest upon ft vast and alarming'y accumulating pub lie debt, there is the burden upon tax payers to provide for current'goveru mental ezp- uaea a sum alrnont fabulous in comparison with the cost of the simpler and Ics i extravagai t and less corrupt system of government, that ex isted before the party jow in power assumed control of our affairs. Leav ing ou the cost of the Government du ring the four years of the civ' war, the Republicans in autho.:y have expended within the pist ten years, and inclusive of tbe estimates for this year, $179,166,480 32 more than was required for ordinary gov ernmental expenses for the entire seventy-iwo years preceding the late war! And thus far into the prest nt Congress every measure of retrench ment instituted by the Democrats has met with stubborn Republican opposi tion. The aggregate cf ordinary expendi tures cf the G vernment, exclusive of the public d3bt, for 1860-'61, was $62,- 616,055 78, and the aggregate of ordi nary Government expenses for 1874 '75 was $171,529,848 27 an inorease of $108,913,792 49. In the same ratio, the Repub ican party, if permitted f6 retain control of affairs another deccde.wonld increase the ordinary current ex penses over one huudred million dol lars iu excess of the stupendous sum now required. And yet they neither wish to relinquish control nor permit a reduction. These figures, together with the daily indictment and convic tion of Republican officials and party leader?, ol rohbery aud conspiracy to defraud the public, furnish the people food for reflectioun. bet ween now and the November election. There are in numerable leaks in tbe public treasury that cannot be discovered or stopped until the party in power is removed. The very life of the couutry depends upon a change of rulers. According to the Boston Journal, the Sandwich Islands are goin; to adopt a new flag", but they can't decide whether to take a gray horse blanket wirh a hole in it.or an old vest with the back ripped out. According to an observing Columbia correspondent, Walsingham Lacour DeLaeey is the only colored member of the South Carolina Legislature who has delicacy enough to remove his quid of tobacco and put it on his "desk drawer before addressing the Honse.

Social matters, last week, went with i perfect wL'Z that almost took awav the breath of individuals not fully ac climated, and qnite discouraged people possessing only limited wardrobes. The highly improbable boy, who set his teeth a'd only i-mi led while that stolen fox was setting his fangs in 1 i i heart, was more a hero than the lady who courageously wears the same t:os tume to party and reception; dons it again for calls and comes out triumph antly elegant every time. At least people are kind enough to say so, but there isn't much variety to the wearer, I guess I know how iufinite are tho possibilities of one black silk wheu judiciously managed. Why, bless your heart. Ovid's metamorphoses were nothing to the transitions my best, gown has known daring the last few weeks ! There's lets of fun in calrny raising your head and remarking with composure, that black is your favorite toilette. You get credit for good taste aud nobody knows the reason why un less you are goose enough to tell them as I'm doing now. Thursday Idet med it my duty to investigate the senatorial residences. We fctarted at 2 o'clock, going first to the rooms of Senator Allison, at Wormley'a Hotel. We found the little lady delightfully establish' d amid books and picrurea nd pretty things geueraily, which seemed, eomehow.a part of her naturd heritage.

Darkey No. 1 passed !h mystical scraps to D irkey No. 2, who received tLem deferentially on a stiver tray, but instuntly turned the trav down sidewyf and kept from slipping by pinching them tvith his black thumb ! Silver waiters ar- nice ! Our next cdl was upou Mrs. Dawes. Their rooms are on K street. 1 hey are ex tremely pleasant and theu our friends had brought home many bright bits of Berkshire autumn. All about the fold ing doors ran a lovely border of tinted leaves and graceful ferns, so carefully placed that it seemed as if they were painted on the wall; the la.".e curtains showed the eame pretty decorations, but that was all we could see in one glance, for the next minute we met Mrs. Dawes' cordial welcome and the equally warm greeting of Miss Dawe. Can you guess what a relief one finds when in round of calls we do happen to meet a lady whose first remark isn't upou the weather?

Few Indies possess it in perfection, for it is a gift which the gods zea'ously deal to supremo favo rites only, l.ut the woman to whom it is vouchsafed can achieve greater political victories than any inau ever effected. I wonder ambitious men do not of teuer think of this ! MAGGIE MITCIIELTj has been here all the week, drawing crowded houses and then drawing tear from the countless eyes by her won derful acting. She ni'ght have been more bewitching iu hereailier years, but i donor, if she were more jtoivcrful. I had never seen her till Friday even ing, wheu she slayed lane .Eyre. That pitiful ntory has been chat-ged just enough to give it a healthier moral tone than Unit of the novel, and it was years since I had read it, but its harrowing details made groat big men cough violently, while femi- iue eyes openly overflowed. I had the pleasure of me ling Majrgie in a friend's p trior, for this favonti actress has k-"pt the affection and respect of the public through all the years of lu r professional life. Knowing how inces santly she bus poi trayed fictitious char hCter I could hardly understand the poib.iity of any real individuality still existing. I expected to catch a hint of Fn.-chon in her tones, a trace of Lorie in her look or an outright manifestation of -Tine Evr . But Mrs. Peddocli, who restraiued my saluta tion, is a sw.'et, graceful litt e lady, wirhont one bit of stginess in speech or raxnnfr. The fair hair Ml in a poft ilo ft" over her forehead, and drooprd iu loi g curls from an ivory comb at the hack of the head. Brown eyes, frank yet keen, met mine with a straightfor ward glance, anil defy anybody to guess her age from any apparent traces these years of study and work have left. I carelessly a '4 ked making au effort et the aforesaid problem "Ho loin? have you beeu ou the stage ?" "Ever since I caa remember," quoth Maggie, and I was no wiser than bes fore. She is bright and witty and earnest; her profession is hi r life aud she loves it dearly. She travels with her owu troupe, escaping the vexations rehearsals with local "sticks," and thoroughly enjoys rousing her audi ences. "In Boston," slid says, "the strictest people came to her perform ances," and Rev. John Weiss actually wrote a new act for the drama of "Fauchon, the Cricket." He was to substitute this for the rendering usual ly given, but abandoned it after one trial, since it was so sombre and heavy, and the public demanded what they had already approved. This week we have Clara Morris in her emotional roles, beginning with Camille, but Cl ir i Morris will never live iu the hearts of the people like lit tle Maggie, who c 11 curl herself up in any corner and stay there like a little pet kitten. M tggio's appeals to her sympathies do us gool; the stormier passions Clara Morris rouses leave ruin and disaster behind.

Kxtract i run: .enatr Il.'in sum's Speech, While the bill for the appropriation to the Philadelphia centekiitil was under consideration Senator Ransom addressed the Senate. Fioni his Ppetch wo make the following extract in reference to the Battle of Moore's Creek: Mr. Ransom Mr. President. I had uot intended to address the Senate on this bill, aud should have been content simply to cast my vote for it, out tuirt morning j. received, the news papers fram WilmiL'gtor, North Caro lina, containing the account of a patri otic meeting of the citizens of Pender county and the people of the Cipo reer country, lor tue purpose of com memorating the centennial anniversarv of the tattle of Moore's Creek, which occurred in that county on the 27th day of Febiuary, 1776. before the Declaration at Philadelphia. - TbA resolutions of that meeting represent s truly Hint einou iiity ilir .-'iiiiment of th people of North Carolina and of th whi le Sju u tht l hav f o it ray duty to ) .7 them before the Senate and the couutry. I a k the Clerk to read tho resolu tion which I Bend to tbe desk. 1 would have all the proceedings read, but the resolution indmated is most pertinent to the question before us, and I know, at this very late hour, how impatient Senators must be: Resolved, That the results of the lae war" have uot abated -ne jot or tittle of our devotion to the principles of the Caustitution upou wlrch the Government is founded; and although the issues at stake were decided ad versely to our hopes aud expectations, yet being sett.ed, there ex nts no rea son why we should not love tho GJV- erumeutMbich our lathers aided in e tiblishiug, nod the old. nag wliich they honored and loved, ivub a much rdor and faith us do the citizens Ol an section of our common country; aud that iwe consider it a patriotic d'i'y. notarise lo cherish aiT ction for Him Goverument. but to teach our children to ove it. I need not remind you, Mr. Presi dent, that tbe battle of Moore's Creek was one of the mot interesting of th Revolution, and that the great victory gained there by the patriots gave a idfld imoulse to our arms; and X must iu this place declare my gratifica tion that, the worthy children f the noble heroes of that h -Id propose to honor their ancestors and to bono themselves by an appropriate celebia tion of its hundredth anuiversary Sir, I send them Irom this Chamber our heartiest ympathies. But, Mr P.-osident, that the Senate may com prehend and fully appreciate the reso lution which has just beeu read, I beg to say that the county of Pender, once a part of New Hanover, in whioh this meeting was held, has beeu established since the civil war, aud was named in honor of General Pender, gallant aud dus i ,.;iiii.xhed Cant derate soldier who fell at Gettysburg; that the people of the Gape Fear cojutrv, in wuicn this new county lies, were not only dis- tinuuished during the war for inde- peudeuce for their gallantry ana pat- r'otism. but that iu the eutire South darina tbe unhappy strife ol the States no people were more devoted to tne Cjufederate cauEe. The resolution were drawn and oresented by lit. O. b. aatchwcii, a surgeon m the southern army irom the beginning to the end of the war; a geutleintu of great intelligence, of eminent position in the medical pro fession, and of universally admitted scientific attainment and distinction. Among the many persons wuo were present at the meeting I see the nam s of the representative men of that sec tion of our State gentlemen ot sub stance, of character, of high social aud political influence, and I also notice that it is contemplated that that entire section of our State, embracing many counties and thousands oi people, are to join ic the celebration. I mention aud call attention, Mr. President, to tiiese circumstances, that itmaybokuown that the sentiments expressed and the spirit pervading theso resolutians are the true repre sentative opinions tmd feelings of the people of North Carolina ami the South, aud as such I present thtni to tho Senate aud to the country.
