To Ihe Sheriffs of the several Counties of
Xorfh Carolina:
Ir Is lieemecl not only de^^irable but an imperative du-
IV, that oarly measures be taken to accumulate a
siipiily of winter clothintr for the North (Jarolina troops
now in the tiel 1. Xhe scarcity of material for sale in
the Male, and the uncertainty of prociirinsr snppli'W
from abroad, force us lo rely on our domestic resources
It is thought that every fmiiily can spare one or mo-e
I’diiiikets wit!,out piTsoii'il inconvenience, or H p;iir of
oolen Socks, and it is believod that for such a pur
pose a call would he reapoudv'd to with nlHCrity.
It h is theref'oie been concluded that an appeal for
this pui|oisc l»> luade to the great body of the people,
and witii tint view 1 have to reque'if the feheritf.s of the
several Counties to act ngentt: of the State, to solioit
•i (Mill! il'Uf ion «)f this kind.
To this end they are reuii«s!(’d to circulate this v.t- :
lice, and empliiy agents in every district of their coun'y ,
10 t'luther (he matter.
.\’i coiitribiitious of this kind may be bored and tVr-
ward**d to ilie ne.arest Kailroad Depot, and due inform i
tioTi thereof Mcnt to the Governor.
T/io Sheriffs are further requeitcd to furnish to the
G ivcriior ii list of the donors.
Tlie trai'sportatioii of thepe donations will be ut ihti
expen'0 of me Stare—and the V>ill for sucli service
■ihould be ilu'y \rded for pavmt'nt.

How the Frf-nch Govfrument shoes its xohfffrs
—The manufacturer buys the leather, after bei»g
certain that it is not tanned by means ot acids.
He cuts the article, rejects the bellies and the
necks, and employs exclusively that which is call
ed tiie hear:s. A machine armed with hammers
beats the skins, which are then cut. ‘VV'hen beat
en, they are examined piece by piece by experi
enced shoemakers and tanners, named by the War
Department, who reject all which appear doubt-
tul. The maker receives from the hands of these
experts the leather which they pronounce good,,
and cuts it mechanically. There are twenty-two
pieces in each pair of shoes. Each of these, great
or siuull, is examined separately by another ex
pert. a sworn verifier, who accepts it on hia re
sponsibility and by his signature. These pieces
tiien are carefully examined, one by one, by ft
military board consisting of thrive captains, .whtj
mark with a stamp their rejection or acceptance.
Tiie parts are then reunited as they should go to
gether, they are placed on the lasts, (there are
40,000 pairii of lasts in the e.stablishment,) they
are fitted, they are sewed. Each shoe passes
through fiftceti hands before it is finisheJ, after
wliirch it is examined and received by a sword
expert, wh» affixes a ticket with his name,'^nd it
is exaininoJ in the la.st instance, without appeal,
by a militafy commis.sion composed of a command-

I A general of division, a commissary an4 two

the operations ot the high-shoe shop. It is thus
absolutely impossible that a shoe can pass fropi

Skillf ul lyor/cm'tns/iij).—We have seen a curi
ous and ingenious specimen of handiwork, execut
ed by Wiiliam Henry Baldwin, Jr., a prisoner of
war, who was wounded in the battle of Mana.ssaa.
It is ii pip'.', made ot mahogany, aud richly carved
with iiiiiiatitiiis of l aves and flowers; while the
niouih-jiit ee an 1 mountings are wruught of beef
boiits, puli.shod like ivory. 'J he only instruments
i '.isei ill this extraordinary specimen of carving
: were old .steel pons, wh’eh the prisoner managed
to ]'ick up. lie has presented it to Dr. Higin-
' botiuiiii. ,'ur;'e.'n of the | o->t, as a token of grati-.
tude for kindness stiowii bun during a Jong period

i ionel. who was wounded .in the brickbat fight at
to Washington, where he was lodged in th^hos-
pital. When well enough to taFk he proved quite
; communicative, and conversed freely with bin
! physician. Among other things he said, was the
following: “Doctor, I am going home. I don’t
, mean to fight any more for the negro, because'it
: is all a cheat anil a swindle. I don’t believe in
; (’ufl'eC', Doctor. 1 am curcd, thank God, of my

There are minds, said John Quincy Adams,
i whii-h can be ple.ised by honors and preferments,
I luit I can see nothitig -in them save envy and
! e»uuiry. It is only necessary to possess them to
I know how little they contribute to happihese. I
i would rather be shut up in a very jpodest cottage,
I with my books, my family, and a few old friends,
' dining upon-simple bacon and hominy, and letting
the world roll on as.it likes, than'to occupy th«
: most ht^h places which human power can give.
