tate peace, how eagerly would-wo urxe (hem to.do'that
thing! But it is not BO. The people of North CarolinR,
outside of the army, are not only powferlesa to give more
than their prayers for peace, but all else that they do-
all that some of them are doing—is for war. All the
victories that our enemies have gained are not so en
couraging to them £0 continue the war, as the oonvio-
tion they are too ready to receive, that any considerable
portion of the people of a State, and especially of a State
that has sent so many gallant soldiers to (he field, are
tired of battling for liberty, for life, for property, for
peace, and ready to make any terms shifrt of a final
separation, and a full recognition of independence.
We impugn not the motives of those who are pursu
ing a course iu our delibergite opiniau so fat-al (o their
own and their country’s honor and welfare; but we warn
them that they can do nothing hut evil by talking of
peace, so long as the enemy is fired with a bitteraadma-
Ugoant hate, a covetpus hankering after our property,
and a determination to'degrade us below the level of (die
meanest slave that ever breathed. ;Tbey are.engaged
