BKBNABD. WILMINGTON, N. C: Monday Evening, April 26, 1880. EVENING EDITION. HISTORY HB-WBlTTKIf-GUIlV-FOBD COURT 11 0 USE. The Greensboro Patriot of the 21st inst. copies from theFayetteville Ob server of November, 1855, a most in teresting and Valuable account of a visit to old Guilford Court House made by Mr. Banks, of Fayetteville, in that year. It is of genaine inter est, and ought to satisfy every fair minded man of the very gross injus tice done the North Carolina militia by Gen. Greene and nearly all wri ters upon the subject. The account is not the one we have referred to in these columns. Our recollection may be at fault, but we have a decided impression that a quarter of a cen tury ago we read either in the Fayetteville Observer or in some other paper aq account which con- tained extracts from letters written by two officers in the British army giving their observations and expe rience in the battle of Guilford Court House. They stated, according to our recollection, that the North Caro lina militia received them with two deadly volleys, which threw their ranks into disorder and necessitated a reforming of the line of attack. We do not think we dreamt this, as we are not in the habit of going to our dreams for historical facts. We ; would like prodigiously well to find ; the account referred to if there be such. We incline to the opin ion that Mr. Banks wrote a se cond letter in which were reproduced the letters referred to. It is certain that such letters would settle the question beyond all dispute, that as unwise as it was in Gen. Greene to throw raw militia three hundred yards in advance of all other troops, that nevertheless those troops poured two very destructive volleys into the ranks of the advancing British, in- dieting thereby great loss of life. We think, as we said in the begin ning, that Mr. Banks7a letter, copied --- into the Patriot, is conclusive, and ought to' make Northern historians : re-write their accounts of that impor tant and decisive battle. We wish . we had space for the entire letter, for it is interesting reading to' a North Carolinian. -We must content ur- - selves with . a few paragraphs that , nhed light upon the events of that ': hisioric, day, March 15th, 1781. Re- y ferring to Gen. Greene's phtn of bat-C-Jtle and his plaoing the North Oan . Una militia three hundred- Vards in ; . radTance'of the Virginians, Mr. Banks sayajFpv - . '. "Ta tdaat untrained soldiers in a, posl fion wrjerelhey could have fall view, tor more tb&n a mile, of the advancing army as it approached la 'all the pomp and clrcum . r stances of glorious war,' whilst they had to remain impassiTe, ;lmntovable . lookers-on, without the power to. do aught to stir the - blood - and make - It; course freely through their arteries and hearts, and move them on " tn aiint- deeds, was -: demanding more " from human; nature tbanmost-nenerala would have - required- The Americans - kpew lhe reputaUoaindif ; of the troops that were slowly nd determinedly approaewng tner nines. ;iney m w,-w instance, the fame of the ' Beventy-flrBt, or Frazsr Highlanders a jeglment that had diitingpisbed itself at Louisburg in the French war--a regiment : of rwhich s QeuV Wolfe had said, 'Amherta's and the High lander alone, by the soldierlike and cool manner ihfey were formed ; in, would un doubtedly have beaten; backithejjrhole Canadian army," if thoy had ; ventured to attack them and wb ie company with the Welsh Fusiliers, were the first to scale the heights of Abraham under the eyfcof the Intrepid Wolfe, made a charge that de feated Montcalm andained for the regi ment a wide world famej v . - , Ho gives other instahoea' of the splendid courage of the famous regi ment, bat we have only room for this: "In this regiment alone, which advanced upon the North Carolina militia, five, of the officers lived to attain the rank of Ueut," Qeneral in the British service, one a Genera two Colonels, three Lieut. Colonels, and some Majors. This is strong evidence of the mettle against which the militia had to contend." . . ' " ; To prove that the" North Carolina militia obeyed Green's orders strictly that is "to fire' twice and then re tire,' Mr. Banks says: "This view of the case is strenethened by a letter from Capt Dugald Stewart, of the 71st regiment, dated Ballachelisb, Argyleshire,-Scotland, October 25th, 1825, where he says: "In the advance we received a very dead ly fire Irom their marksmen lying on the ground behind a rail fence ! One-half qf the Highlanders dropped on that spot. There ought to be a pretty Jarge tumulus where oar men (71st) were buried.' SeeCa miners' Life of Caldwell, p. 227. "And the same author, page 226, says: 'It ia also known that a great many of the British were buried in that field, and near the place where their front line teas tehen the first Jure vm given. Of this there is no doubt, for it is well attested by people in the neighborhood, who were on the ground the next day after the battle, and saw them burying "their dead.'' . "Again, Brown, in his 'History of the Highland Clans,' speaking in reference to the 71st regiment at Guilford, says: "The Americans, covered by the fence in front, reserved their fire UU the British were within thirty or forty paces, at which distance they opened a most destructive fire, 'which annihilated nearly one-third of Col Web' ster's brigade. "The 71st regiment formed the right of the British army, and - Webster's brigade the feft. "The North Carolina militia alone form ed the front line of the American army.: They alone met the British veterans flushed with precious victories annihilated one third of Webster's brigade nd one-half of the 71st or Frazer Highlanders and yet their memories are held up to execration as disgraced cowards by Lo&sing and Johnson and what is more unkind stilV.by the his torians of our own State." We have not space for some com ments of Mr. Banks on the im portance of the battle. We are glad that the hundredth anniver sary is to be celebrated with be coming display, and interest. We hope some competent hand will be secured to write a full, lucid, authen tic account of the battle, and that copies shall be sent to the historians of the North, and to the leading pub lic and college libraries of the coun try. If possible the facts ought to be presented even through the col lumns of the leading New York dailies. The stigma was most un justly placed upon the North Carolina troops, and it is impor tant that it should be removed. A lie is sometimes invested with a very dangerous immortality. It is a good time to correct historical errors. It is an age of inquiry, of investigation. It is true that the North Carolina militia did retire in great disorder, and when they got started they did not stop. But what else could be expected ? They were very raw some of them just from the plough-handles. They had never been drilled for an hour. They did what they were ordered to do, but, like all militia, when once retreating they kept on making excellent time over a rougn road. They did what regular- troops have often done. They fell back in great disorder be fore an overwhelming force and of the very best material. Even the splendid 71st Regiment, mentioned above, ran ingloriously at Camden. The Virginians etood their ground at. Guilford Court House, but thev were three hundred yards in rear of the North Carolinians. Gen. Lee4 ("Light Horse Harry") says they had behaved so badly in South Carolina; that to prevent them from running again their commander placed sharp! shooters behind them with orders to shoot down any that ran. If this had been done with the North Caro-j linians, . exposed as they were, and forced to receive the onset of 2,500 British veterans, they would have no doubt stood their ground and. have been slaughtered. As it was they did all they were placed in advance-; to do to receive the British onset,! dehvertwo fires and retire. -The'y failed in this: They were to take ap position in rear, but once started; they could not be checked. All old soldiers know how difficult it ,is to make raw troops fall back in good order when assaulted in front .-with' an overwhelming force. x The Anti-Third-Term movement: in New York is growing. If Gran should be nominated and the Demo--. crata should, nominate Seymour, Bayard, pr David 'TJayls, there $s everj 'indication; that VureJwnrW; bolting Wa; large scale In several of the Northern States : The Baltimore r " " - American is a Republican paper and; FntiiM - OrariO si "Grtat men who have been counting ;on; the Kelly bolt in NewTotk to'beat Tilden? ia case be should he nominated will do well toread the proceedings of therRepablican 'AnU-Third-Term ?

It al depends on what the South has to say. If it unites in the opinion that it will not allow the old man to forbea candidate npon them and the country then whatever else happens that,will not be ""done. But our purpose just now Is not to discuss what is wisest to be dpne under given circumstanoes, buC1 to note a suggest lion of the Philadelphia limes, a pa per more or leas Independent, edited by a Republican of great : sagacity and prescience, and that often does the country a service. That paper accepts the fact, true or supposed, that Tilden will hold the nominating- hand at Cincinnati. In view of that fact it thinks the old man ought to serve his country by nominating a first-rate man, and that man it thinks is Judge Jeremiah S. Black. It has an editorial on the subject, from which we oopy the fol lowing paragraph; "This altitude or Judge Black might seem at first blush to put him beyond the pale of -the contest of 1380, but the nomi nation of a dark horse at Cincinnati is now reasonably .certain, and the range of dark horses is soJwide on the Democratic side that Judge -Black may be only the more available beoause he is earnestly and unselfishly devoted to the cause of another. Tilden will not be nominated, but be will have much to say in deciding who shall take his place, and who would more completely come 'up to the Tilden standard than Judge Black? He i8mong the ablest men of the country; he ia free from the following of faction; he is sound on the financial issue; he is Demo cratic from his wig to his boots, and be would make- thoroughly honest adminis tration of the government. The political leaders will bowl bim out of the ring at once when his name is mentioned; but when they get to- Cincinnati and discover that those who have bad possession of the ring must make way for the entry of the dark horse brigade, they will find the name of Judge Black on the list from which the choice must be made." The Stab prefers Mr. Seymour to all others because it believes he is the most available man who oould be nominated possibly. Judge Black is a man of great ability and of the most scrupulous honesty. He is devoted to the Constitution and the Union of our fathers. He would make a Pre sident of the highest order. But can he be elected if nominated? That is the important question. He would no doubt suit the South better than al most any man who would suit Mr. Tilden probably. Mr. Tilden could make a much worse selection than Judge Black. A hungry youth named .Lloyd Hopkins went to a wedding in eastern Virginia, devoured twenty-five mo lasses cakes and died next morning. The moral of this is beware of too many "gungers," especially at mgm. A negro named William Scott called upon Grant at Vicksburg, and dunned him for $10 due him for cooking for him in the war. Grant promised that the little matter should be attended to. Senator Voorhees's Senate Exodua Committee has cost $25,000. The good done is comparatively small. CDBBBKT CbnnKNT.

The movement of the crop, as indi cated by our telegrams from the South to-night, is given below. For the week ending this evening, April 23, the total receipts have reached 36,714 bales, against 38,910 bales last week, 37,323 bales the previous week, and 47,393. bales three weeks since, mak ing the total receipts since the 1st of September, 1879, 4,608,009 bales, against 4,294,924 bales for the same period of 1878-9, showing an increase since September 1, 1879, of 313,285 bales. The exports for the week ending this evening reach a total of 64,571 bales, of which 51,791 were to Great Britain, 3,717 to France, and 9,063 to rest of the Continent, while the stocks as made up this evening are now 648,203 bales. From the foregoing statement it will be seen that, compared with the corresponding week of last season, there is a increase in the exports this week of 26,565 bales, while the stocks to-night are 250,369 bales more than they were at this time a year ago.
