•Vnutiieh 1’romotion.—We have great pleasure in
“ Uing, that in addition to the promotion of Generals
lluger and Magruder, Brigadier (leneral Holmes has
been raised to the rank of ALijor General in the I’ro-
vi-^ional .Army. Gen. Holmes, as our reader.s know,
has been in command ot the army ou tlie lower I’otomac
and under his direction the various batteries at Acquia
creek, and above and below that point, have been erec
ted.
We have received from an officer in the liHth Regi
ment N. C. Volunteers, at Wilmington, a sliarp rej'ly
to a recent paragraph in the Wilmington .Journal,
which suggested the propriety of removing that and
another regiment out of the corporate limits of Wilming
ton. The writer takes offence at this, and contrasts
the treatment of his men at Wilmington witli the kind
attentions bestowed ou them at High Point, where they
were encamped when ordered to Wilmington. We must
doclim; to publish the comniunicalion, (though the olH-
cer authorizes us to attach his name to it,) for the rea
eon that we tliink no good could be done by crimina
tion and recrimination; and we only publish this notice
of it with a view to call the attention of those interested to
the propriety of seeing to it that there be no just cause
of complaint either by or of tiie volunteers who liave
gone ;o Wilmington trom the mountains to defend the
•State, and particularly that section of it.
Disobacefll.—The Standard calls attention to the
fact that (ieu. Hill had made a reijuisitiou upon the
people of Craven county for one-fourth of their negro
ii:>tle force tor two weeks, to complete the delences near
New hern; and that the people liad so far failed to com-
I ly that Col Singeltary had been obliged to givi> notice
'li;it lie would enforce the requisition.
This conduct of the people down there is, we regret
^-ay, in accordance with rejiorts heretofore current,

Iron. We casually heard, a few days ago, that (he
great establinliment in Richmond, the Tredegar Works,
where a thousand or two men are said be employed in
making cannon, steam engines, and a hundred other
things indispen.sable to our Southern Confederacy, is
but indifferently supplied with iron, and has to send all
over the country, even to New Orleans, to purchase up
1 the pig iron needed for its furnaces, paying ^^10 a ton
for what is generally worth but $20.
If (his be so, why do not capitalists, here and in
Chatham, at once put up more iron works on Deep
River, and thus supply a great want of the country, de
velop the woalih of that wonderful region, and at the
=ame time enrieh themsolves? The cost of the works
necessary to make the pig iron is but a few thousands,
we believe, and the time required to erect them not
much. The manufacture of pig iron will undoubtedly
lead to the higher branches of iron manufacture—that i
is, if our jieople h:ive half the energy necessary to con- ;
stitute a self-reliant and independent nation. j
AV hy may we not h.'^ve works of this kind in Faj'ette- i
ville’’ The ore can be brought here, as we have often seen 1
many car loails of it carried info Baltimore from a dis
tance. There is every facility in Fayetteville for a I
great manufacturing place. Who will commence this
mf>nutacture here’.' Commence it now, when so much j
needed, and when the profit will be so great? |

CoNTHiBnxiONS TO THK SoLDiERs.—Tuesday’s Rich
mond Examiner has another long list of registrations
at the Passport office, among which we find the follow
ing from North Carolina:—
Mr. Bynum, 5100 for 2d North Carolina Reg’t.
Daniel Cufts $8(X)*to 5th N. C ; J. T. Evans, 3^200 to 1st
N. C. State troops; T. T. Ford and Francis Byerly.
$1000 to llth N. 0.; Ur. John Harley, $500 to 8d N. C.;
(Mcero Moore, and II. M. Gray $1800 to 4th and tlth N.
C.; A Speight, $150 to 3d N. C.
The Examiner says,—
“The aggregate amount of clothing, stores &c. &c., re
ported at the Passport office thus far i8$3t>t;,(i'.t4, which
is not however three-fourths of the amount. Quanti
ties of clothing and stores have been conveyed by pri
vate hands to the army, of which the chief of the Pass-
}>ort office has received no returns. It is estimated
that enough clothing will have been received in the
course of the ensuing month, to furnish the entire ar
my, and without the cost of a dollar to the Government.”
More of the Same Sort.—Yesterday’s Dispatch
gives a list of later contributions, amounting to $3;l,7(K),
making an aggregate so far of $480,400 in all regis
tered up to (he 15th inst. The following from North
Carolina are in this last list:—
L Belo. Jos. Martin, James L Barrow, and Joseph
«>. Hall, $(>,000, clothing to llth North Carolina
Samuel Brown, Wm. Schafer, and J. J. Martin,
$1200. clothing to 12th N. C.

12th N. V-. Volunteers.
B. Walker, $1000, clothing to Gth North Carolina.
T. H. Walker, $150, to same.
“The Danuf.h of Heiiei.lion in the North.”—Un
der thi;. head the N. V. Times of the *>th inst. has a
loi g editorial article, which we find in a Richmond pa
per. It is significant of the downfall of liincoln, tho
Republican party, and the United Slates government,
all of which will undergo a trial during (he ensuing .six
months from which we do not believe they can conic
out safely. Strangely enough, the Times anticijiates
tho trouble, the rebellion, from the abolitionists, for
wl.om, it appears, Lincoln is not ultra enough. But
there will be other troublesome elements 'nesides the
abolitionists. There will be the starving men, women
and children of the cities, the widows and orphans of
the kilied in battle, the ricfi men made poor, the Demo
crats who wish again to get into power, and i>erhajis
above all these, the people of the great Noithwest.
None of these can be heartily enlisted in this war uj'on
the South, and every day will more and more open their
eyes to its suicidal eflects—always provvh'i the S-ntth
nfivnhi not .^u.^ltiin any yrtnt reverse in bottle. The world

sider the most conclusive of icasoiis.
Vou remember well tfie p siiion 1 occupied upon the
great que'ition wiiich mo lately uiviil^d the people of the
South, Ardently devoted to tl.e old Union and the
forms which the Federal fathers establisiied, I clung to
it -o li ng as 1 I bought there wus h >hadow of ji hope ot'
preserving, purifying ot ree,instructing it. And you
will aNo remember that in the last official communica

f.ir ]>eace and justice at the hands of the North vhoiild
tail, that their cau^e w i> mine, their destiny was my
destiny, and tliat all I had and w;ij shoul.J he spent in
their service. Those hopes did fail, as you know, sig
nally and mi'^ser.ilily tail; civil war was thrust upon the
country and the strung arm of Norrhrrn 'lespc ism was
stretched out to crush and subdue the Sotithern people.

poorly fulfill."1 should 1 now. after having acquired

or even accepting a civil appointment.
Certainly, if there lives a man in North Carolina who
ought to d'l all and suffer all for his country, 1 am that
man. Since the time of my entering upon man’s
estate, the j>eople have heaped promotion and honors,
all undeserved, upon my head. In everything 1 have
sought, iheir generous contidonce. their unfailing kind

I am therefore not a candidate for Congress, nor will 1
consent for my name to be run. 1 am perfectly satisfied
to be represetited again by the sound sense and sober
judgment of the gentleman who i.as so lately represent
ed us at Richmond, or by a dozen gentlemen who live
in our di-‘trict not connected witti the army—some of
whom I ho[>e the common peril and the common cause
will induce our people to elect without bickering and
strife,
I canni.; close this ha«ty letter without assuring you
that 1 am not insensible to the compliment conveyed by
your own and a hundred other similar interrogations

borne and Howard. I imposed by the Confederate tax law.
will grow till it becomes an overwhelming torrent, that
will sweep Lincoln and all before it.
We make the following extract from the Times’s ar-
t icle: —
‘•The symptoms of a mutinous and seditious spirit
against the (Jovernment are daily and hourly develop
ing themselves at the North, in tlie radical wing of the
Repuhlican party and among the Abolitionists of the
true-blue stripe. Both tactions, liaving been separated
by only the breadth 0? a hair, or the ditferencc between
tweedle dum and tweedle-dee, are now cordially united
in opposition to the I’resident, whose manly letter to
Fri-mont is the occasion for the opening of a general fire
u{ion him, from the big sixty-four jiounders down to the
pop-gnns. Even the telegraph at St. Louis is used to
spread mutiny through the North. Under these cir
cumstances it is the duty of the conservative elements
to come forward and sustain .Mr. Lincoln and denounce
the Abolition traitors, who are (he prime cause of the
present misfortunes of the country, and are doing their
worst to render permanent the mischief they have
wrought. The Government itself, consulting its own
safety, ought to seize and incarcerate the leaders, who
are a thousand times more dangerous than the editors
of Northern papers sj’uipaihizing widi (he Southern re
bellion, and opposing the war for the Union. Tlie Se
cession heresy never had any strength at the North, and
it is now completely squelched here by tlie vigorous ac
tion of the Government; but a more formidable and afar
more extensive ilisunion element openly defies the
President, spits upon and execrates the Con-iiitution,
which is the t>ond of the Union, and threatens to sub
vert our whole political system, (urning it either into a
consolitlated military despotism or into a .Mexican an
archy, in which numerous petty chieftains will eacli
play an independent part. .
• We now warn .Mr. Lincoln that there is a disaffec
tion (0 his (iovernnient in his own party at the North;
that it is every day gaining strength, and that unless
he speedily c^'ushes it, it is very likely soon tocrusfi him
and betray the cause of the Union into the hands of its
Southern foes.
“If the policy of the red revolutionary republicans
prevailed, and the (Jovernment were wwak enough to
succumb to it and endorse such proclamations as Fre
mont’s, or issue others to the same effect, the North
would become a divided instead of a united people, and
the South would become so thoroughly united that it
would be as easy to find a white crow as a Union man
beyond the Delaware and the Ohio. When the war
commenced, no sane, well informed man hoped for the
success of our arms, unless upon the basis of a Union
element in the Southern States, which would become
developed as our armies advanced. The malignity of
abolitionism seeks to destroy that elemenl and convert
it in(o one of hostility.
“Already great evil has been done by the pro'clama-
tion of Gen. Fremont in .Missouri. We have the testi
mony of Rev. Mr. Olmstead, pastor of the Baptist
(Jhiirch at Booneville, in a letter in a Chicago Republi
can journal. that “the whole country in Norihwestern
.Misiouri is up and flocking by hundreds to Price’s
camp, (heir arms being of every description; that the
whole force of the rebels marching from various points
against (he Union army will amou-ii from liO,tH.H) to
men, and his opinion is that the only hope is to
fall back, concentrate, entrench, and act on the defen
sive! Such are the first fruits in Missouri of the false
step of Fremont towards making the war one of eman
cipation, instead of a war to restore (he mIuIuk ijuo anti
iilluin—(he same condi(ion as existed before luis(ili(ies
broke out.”
Patriotic Mothers.—We saw a leKer from a Lady
in Virginia a few days ago, from which we make the
following extract:—
few days ago an old Lady arrived here from one
of the lower counties of Virginia, to see her sons—she
has eiyht in the Army, and all stationed at (haney Is
land. Think of the sorrow of that poor mother’s heart;
and yet «he seemed cheerful and contented. But in
the event of an engagement she could scarcely expect
all to escape uiihurt. Another Lady was here who had
seven sons in the war, and was on her way to visit them
all, at their diflTerent camps. I ihoughl of your dear
mother. What would become of her if she had as many
loved ones exposed to danger? Y«t I have no doubt she
suffers as much with her one as these mothers with
their seven and eight. God alone knows the sorrow
and desolat'on caused by this unhappy strifel tUi’.
when will it end?”
LATEST WAR NEWS.
Sngagement at Mvansport.—Official dispatches have
been received, announcing mother attack, on the part
of a Federal fleet, upon our batteries at Evansport. The
force of the enemj’ is reported to have consisted of nine
steamers, furnished, as well ns could be observed, with
an armament of the heaviest character. After an in
effectual attempt to silence our fire the enemy’s fleet
hauled off, evidently considerably damaged. The fire

rapidity and accuracy with which it was served. The

Nashville, Oct. 14,
The ir/r tn Kentucky.—Passengers by to-day’s trains
report that large additions have been made to Lincoln’s
forces in Kentuckj-.
The Louisville Courier w;as issued at Bowling Green
to-day. It says that Gen. Rousseau, with 5000 men
and eight pieces of artillery, occupied Nolin bridge,
which is 18 miles from Munfordsville, on the lOtfi inst.
The Courier also learns that large forces are concen
trating at Lexington, Ky , in view of a speedy advance
on Zeigler’s forces. A division of Sherman’s forces i.s
:it Louisville, actively engaged in pushing forward his
forces.
There appears to be much enthusiasm at the North in
regard lo Kentucky, and it is the general determination
to make her the battle ground. Sherman’s column is
I einforced by one or I wo reginienis from the North daily.
Sherman issu'd nn order at Louisville, on the ^hh inst.,
that the chiefs in (he ditferen( military departments are

that McCulloch was at Johnstown, with Price’s army,
which was marching on Sedalia, where Seigel has 27,-

Cavalry Camp, York ('ot ntv, Va., Oct. l:’>.
Ihn, /'. j>ress: We have had another fight with (he
Yankees .\boul 50 of the cavalry belonging to the
Second Regiment, went out scouting on the James River
Rond They met a wagon with four horses attached
attended by about ^'O Yankees, on a foraging expedi
tion—yi'^. a shilling e.xpedition, f. short distance from
Newport News. t)ur cavalr}-charged upon them. They
wheeled and fired, then ran like cowardly devils in
every direction. Twelve were captured, and their,fine
wagon and team became the properly of the Confederate
(iovernnient in quick time,. It is not known how matiy
of the Yankees were wounded or killed, but this much
is true—not on of our hoy.t rrcet>'e'l thr Imxt injury.
Tliese are the facts of the cuse.
Jjettfrs to Soldiers.—It is said that there are
thousands of letters in the Post-office at Manassas,
uncalled for, and hence not delivered, because
they are not properly directed. All letters ad
dressed to our soldiers should be directed to the
person in a legible hand, with the name ot his
company and the name of his regiment and his
proper post office. At any rate the name of his
Colonel and the number of the regiment and State
to which it belongs must be plainly written.

HECTOR McNEILL, Sh’fl.
Gen. Mansfield is said to have arrived at Hatter.as.
It is supposed that the placing of so able and high an
oflicer of (he regular U. S. army al (hat poin( indicates
a determination to make extensive assaults upon our
coast. A large naval and military force is collecting
at Old Point and Annapolis.
The Fremont squabble grows in inten^sl and import
ance, even to the apprehension that his friends will sot
him up as the head of a third Republic, The West is
evidently the section of the remainder of the United
Stales. It has the territory and the population, and is
growing, whilst the Atlantic States will wither under
ihe loss of the South, and the secession of the Wesi
would give it a finishing blow.
Another (Jompauy from Union.—Another
volunteer company has been made up in Union
county, called the “lledwine Beauregards/’ and
the following officers elected: Dr. T. W. Redwinc,
’nptain; J. H. ^^’arwick. 1st Lieut.; 11. X. Aiaiiii,
2d Lieut.; S. G. liowie, 3d Lieut.
iJharlotte Democrat.
Th> linttle of tireenbrirr Rtrer.—(ien. Jackson’s cf-
ficiiil report of his signal repulse of Gen. Re3’nolds on
the 8d inst., is published. The casualties on our side
were •> privates killed, 4 officers, 4 non-commissioned
officers .and 28 privates wounded, and 1 non-commis
sioned officer and 12 privates missing. Tot.al 5(1. Tlie
enemy's loss is estimated bj- Gen. JacKson at 230 to 80>,
including an officer of high rank.
The Cincinnati federal account pretends that the af
fair was only a reconnoissance, in which tliey hadolHH)
men and the Confederates —(8,RMJ magnified
into lu,(,HM))—and pretend that our loss must have been
•jK) killed and wounded, while they s.ay their own was
but 10 killed and 11 wounded. If they beat us so bad
ly, why did they run away, leaving many things, even
to a regimental flag, upon the field?
-4 new feature of the War.—We are credibly informed
that an examination of the trunks, &c., of the Indiana
Regiment, recently captured at Chickamackomack,
brought a large number of counterfeit notes on the bank
of Camden, S. C., to light.
These were printed from genuine plates, and arc of
the denomination of 5's, lO’s and 20's. Some are sign
ed (forged of course) and others are not.
This revelation of villainy developes a new feature of
the war, which there is much reason to believe was de
signed to be general. Most, if not all, of our bank-notes
have heretofore been printed at the North, and the ptates
are yet in their possession. From these plates numer
ous notes are to be printed and falsely signed, and to
be circulated among our people wherever the Vandals
can get a foot-hold.—Norfolk Day Book.
An Incident of Gilham's i/etreat.—We learn that a fa
tal casualty attended the retreat of Col. Gilham’s com
mand from Valley Mountain to Eura. A wagon, con
taining five sick soldiers belonging to a North Carolina
regiment, was swejtl away while attempting to ford a
swollen stream, and all five of the soldiers, together
with the driver, were drowned. — Rich. Dispatch. IG/A.

Pilair continues, and that two of the Blairs are still

New York, Oct. 8.—The cotton trade was more ac
tive and firm. The sales were 2,800 bales. Middling
uplands 21 io213 cents.
On Thursday, in Savannah, (582 sacks of Cuba Coffee
sold at an average of 41 i cents per lb. One lot brought
42 cents. The Government was the largest purchaser.

Farther Point, Oct H.—The Norwegian has arrived.
She brings dales from Liverpool lo the 27th Sept.
The Paris Patrie denies, but English journals reas
sert, that France ami Spain intend to intervene in the
affairs of Mexico. The London Times says the inter
vention is with the full concurrence of the American
Government.
The issue of notices for the adoption of short time in
working hours in the Lancaster mills is daily becoming
more general. Under these circumstances, spinners and
manufacturers are showing an increased confidence, and
abstain from pressing their goods on the market until
prices rise in proportion tothe value of the raw material.
The oity .'irtiele. in the London Times, announces the
continued decline in the funds to the feeling and dis
quiet of the prospects of the operatives in Xlanctiester
the coming winter, under Itie influence which the par
tial susjiensiou of the cotton trade will have upon their
revenues.
London funds continued to droop. Consols declined

Liverpool. Sej>t. 21.—The sales of cotton for three
days, ending Wednesday, were 85.0K) bales. The
market excited and jirices Jd. higher than on Friday.
Sales to speculators and exporters 48,000 bales. The
market closed with an upward tendency.
The advices from Manchester were f«vorrvl)le and
prices for all goods were slightly higher, though sales
were small.
Liverpool. Sept. 27.—Sales of cotton to-day estimated
at 2J,0M) bales. The market was buoyant at yester
day’s prices The stock is estimated at 761.000, of
which 445,OlM) were American.

It is reported that Wise’s Legion is ordered to
North Carolina. We believe that the report is

A Strnnijv Vi^itvr.— It is said several persons
saw on Sunday morning last, about 5 o’clock, a
largo balloon passing over this city at a moderate
speed, towards the South. It is described as be
ing well lighted up, not very high, with flags,
etc., and with at least four persons in it. It is
also reported that another was seen on Monday
morning or Sunday night. We are unable to ac
count for it, yet it is not impossible that the aero
nauts of the Potomac or Old IViint may have
been driven by current,s of air beyond their moor
ings. We know that Professor Jjowe was only a
few months ago driven from Cincinnati to South
(’arolina. If the four aeronauts should prove to
be I’rof Lowe, Abe Lincoln, Billy Seward and
Jen. McClellan, and should alight between this
and the South Carolina line, we should rejoice.

Macon, Ga., Oct. 15.
The Macon i onvention.—About 400 delegates
to the Commercial Convention were present yes-
tt^rday, from nine States. A. O. Andrew, of
Charleston, was elected ]»ermanent President; R.

The meeting was organired in a harmonious

The Cotton Planters’ Convention will meet

Macon, Ga., (Jet. 13.—The Cot ton Planters’ and Com
mercial ('onventions to-day merged into one. The Com
mittee ou Commerce and Finance submitted resolutions
recommending a mcdification of the sejuestration act,
which was laid on the talile until to-moirow; also, a re
solution recommending insurance companies to take
risks oil cotton stored in interior towns and on planta-
lioTi-j. which was adopted unanimously.
-\ resolution declaring llie proposed issue of treasury
notes, and the present bank note currency, under the
resolutions of the banks to advance to planters, will
furni.^h Jin adequate circulation for the country. To
tills sundry amendments and substitutes were proposed,
looking lo a Government advance on produce in treasu
ry notes and bonds, which are now subjects of interest
ing iliscussion by numerous speakers. Convention ad
journed until to-night. Discussion pending.
dood Tliinij in Leather.—Mr. Isaac Bier-
tield, of Newberry, has received a patent—and we
believe the first issued to a South Carolinian—for
an important invention and improvement in Tan-
iiing
In the words of the Newberry Sun, we say:
“The ingredients used in this new process make
the Leather tine and close. The specimeas he has
exhibited to us are of a fine polish, and remarka
bly weighty and pliant. Mr. Bierfield has al-
leudy disposed ol a large juantity of Leather
tanned by the new process, which has given gen
eral .satisfaction. He tells us that he has found
that he can tan leather from 40 to (>0 per cent,
cheaper than heretofore. That light stocks can
be tanned in from fifteen to forty days, and heavy
tocks ill proportion. We consider this new pro
cess of Mr. Bierfield of great and decided utility
to tanners. Bark, in many sections, is becoming
scarce and dear, and the weed used by Mr. liier-
field (the Kupatorium Foenicalueceum, or Dog
Fennel,) can be obtained in great abundance.
He will dispose of rights either by States or L>is-
tricts.’’
Mr. Bierfield has placed in the (’ourier office
several specimens of his Leather. There is one
side of “upper” thick, which was done in sixty
days; one specimen of’ “welt,” reijuiring about
the same time, and two specimens of “calf” done
in founeeti days.
The process has been thoroughly tested with
all kinds of hides and skins, and the Ijcather has
been well tried in use by many citizens of New
berry. Many sides have been purchased and
sold by Mr. Voigt, Market-street, an experienced
dealer, to whom we may refer.
