' Woo can ten wnai wouia we forcsee BaC0ess in Mr. S'i entcrprixe. have been the condition of the b'ate bad there been do such body u the Convention now in exiatenee ! One thing is certain, tc-wit : that between the first Thursday ro next Au gust and the first Monday of January there after, the State would Lave been witbont a Governor. A look at tbo calendar of the present eeeion of the Convention, aa far as it bis been tcade up, will show bow many im portant subjects demanded the re-asacmbling of tbe Cocvcuiion. The Sute Constitution is in many respects defective and must be amended, and tbe wants of tbe Treasury are r rewioganJ imperative, and must be attend ed to as promptly as possible. No body of men but a State Convention 1 can dispose of questions pertaining to tbe Stato Constitu tion, a&d while tbe Legislature might have been recalled for tbe purpose of supplying the wants of the Treasury, we presume that there is do one outside cf a mad bouse who would for ono moment think of recalling a body whose smell would overpower all "the perfumes of Arsby the blessed." Beaiiee t hee two important subjects, there are others which must occupy the attention of the Convection-, and amply vindicate tbe wisdom of tbe recess taken last summer, instead of an adjournment sine die at that time. Tbe .truth ii, when tbe recess was taken last summer, neither the members of tbe Convention, nor any one in tbe Sue, could tell what emer gency might arUe to demand tbe considera tion of tbe representatives of the people of North Carolina in their sovereign capacity, and it would have been most unwise for the Convention to have pursued any other course than the ons it adopted.

The New York Ihrald, of the 18th inst, has the tollowicg in relation to the arrest of our Com missioners on the Royal Mail steamship Trent : The United States frigate San Jacinto, Capt Wilkes, arrived at For tret s Monroe on Friday afternoon last, having on board the rebal Com missioners, Slidell and Mason. They were taken from the British Mail steamer Trent, on the 8th inst, off Bermuda. Lieut lairfas and 35 arm Ad men went from the San Jacinto, with five officers, who boarded the steamer and picked out the Ci'mmusioners. -They are now en rout for Fort Lafayette.

In a late number of the Raleigh Standard, there appeared ao article on this subject which out of tbe difficulty in this way with' a Power which has always been remarkably sensitive to insults upon its Hag, and particularly so when such insults are upon tbe high seas. ' The pride of England is extremely nice in everthing touch iog ber maratime rights, and she has never failed to resent any cnraiempiuous or lawless diow uinic. ed upon them by a foreign State. We doubt whether a more wanton or impudent indignity was ever perpetrated upon her than tbis overhauling: of one of her mail -steamers in mid-ocan by a Yankee war veesel. It constitutes an or?nce for which, in our humble judg ment, a disclaimer by the Washington Govern, meet will not be accepted as an atonement, unless it is immediately followed by a restoration of the illegally seized persons to tbe statos they were in when they were captured ; or, (if this arrangeraont is imnrastible) by sending them to .England by a Federal conveyance and landing tbem safely upon bcr soil. ' We vesrday expressed our surprise atjthe view taken of this affair by tbe Charleston Mercury, fhicb broadly admits the legality of the act of Wilkes, supposing him to have proceeded under the instructions of bis pevernment for of course tho question i one between the two government. But suppose that the Rump deny that be had any such authority t Will tbe Mercury in thai event contend that the capture was a proper one under the iaw ot nations ( And now suppose, on the other hand, for argu ment's sake, that Lincoln avows that the act of Wilkes was in conformity o official instructions from his government. What then? That gov ernment is no party to any provision in tbe inter national code which recognizes the right either of visit or search. On tbe contrary, it stands upon the record, up to tbe breaking out of tbis war, as the steady and uniform opponent and Tesistant of that right. . It has again and again refused Eoeitively to subscribe to any such principle, and as declared that its own vessels shall in no case be boarded and search wl at sea by an armed vessel of a foreign power. Does the Mercury bold that the Federal Government, which has thus exempt ed iu own ships from the operation ot the Eu ropean law, may of right and with propri ety, visit and search the ships of , a Euro pean government unaer me terms of that latot This would be putting the Washington Government in a position of perfect supremacy upon the seas. It would be arminer it with a self-constituUd authority to invade the decks of foreign vessels for tbe purpose of searching them, whilst its own vessels would De secure against any violation of the kind. This seems to us to be the inevitable conclusion from the Mercury's premis es, for be it rememoereo tnat tbe .Federal Oovern rnent has not heretofore recognized or assented to tbe doctrine of the right of visit and search, and therefore cannot be entitled to exercise it, tor its own benefit, to the detriment of any one of those powers who cave consented to be governed by it This circumstance contsitutes tbe peculiar aggra vation in tbe cate of our Commissioners, and re moves it, we conceive, from the pale of the deci sions to which our respected Charleston contempo rary reiers to snow its legality. We may bo wrong in our views and the Mercu ry may be right. X,et Una be as it may, the dis cussion of the matter over here will have ro influ eoce upon the decision of the British Government, which, wedoubt not, will subject it to the most rigid and careful examination. Whatever that decif ion may be, we feel very sure that it will be in accordance with the public law governing the case, and here we are perfectly content to leave it.

The higher the prios paid, the more money, of course, in tbe way of commissions, finds its way into their pocke's, and it is cLarged in the article in the Standard, that on some occasions State agents have bid against each other, in order to enbanee tbe price of the article or articles needed. This is downright fraud and roguery, and the State authorities should at onee supply a remedy for it. Tbis remedy would be, to discontinue the practice of paying commissions on pur chases, and compensate agents by stipulated sums or salares. It may be objected to Ibis, that agents so eompeasated might get'the pay without efficiently doing the work. It is true thU- agencies might be eonferred on lazy, inefficient and incompelent men, but for eucb cases thero would exist the power of removal, and the substitution of compe tent and efficient men. We believe that this would prove tbe best mode of protecting the State against tbe tricks of agents in the mat- tar of army supplies. . As to am; tion, that is out of the question, for we can San Jaeinlo. The Trent then proceeded on ber way to Europe, with the families and friends of the prisoners. Tbe whole capture was made without the firing of a shot more than the one used to bring tbe vessel to. Lieu t. D. McN. .

Neither of these brave men have any sympathy with the detestable rebls. s;e no mode of preventing collusion between a diebonest bolder of an article needed by tbe State, and a dishonest agent for its purchase. A strict eerutioy into the character of per sons on whom agencies are to be conferred is the best and only protection which the State ean get agaiust the tricks of agents and I contractors. MAKING A CLEAN BREAST OF IT. A corrcspondei.t of tbe Cincinnati Commercial, writing from Hrrod.burg,Ky ..acknowledges ful ly tbe system of lying resorted to by the Yankees, aid ca! la for a reform,, or Providence will never be for tbem. He also tells the truth about the Wild Cat fight and the Union men of Tennessee and Kentucky: LlAHBODSBPRa, Nov. I. Editors Cummcrcial .I notice in your paper of thi 29th ult, that you complain that our party has been irjuriog our cause by falsehood and misrepresentation, and I, sir, agree with you, and lasi now iea to onere toai many ot our reverses and misfortunes are attributable to such misrepresentations and fasehoods. I don't be- Joive that Providence will be with us or oa cause, so long as we oontinuesodishonest a course. 1 believe that honesty is the best policy, and I do hope in future we may have aa near the truth as it may be possible to get at it. 1 have risen from my bed, (where I am confin ed from a wound received in the fight, or skir mish at Camp Wild Cat,) to say to you, the of the many accounts I baveser - and heard of that Debt, not one of them base given tbe naked truth. pie protoo ! and to nake a short story of it, tbs loss on each f I side was about equal.

Owing to the praiseworthy exertions of Major Buss, we have reason 'to believe that Salt will be brought here from the mines in Virginia, and sold at comparatively reasona ble prices, say 94 or $5 per sack. In the meantime, we advise our country friends not to turn out their bogs which bad been taken Tap for ibe purpose, of beiog fed on corn. We also advife them, and everybody else, not to buy a grain of Salt from the' 15 and $20 per sack speculators. Let their Salt remain upon their own griping bands, which for a shilling would snatch a morsel from a starving man's mouth. DEPARTURE OF TROOPS. . Col. R. 11.

On Wednesday last, we received from Savan nah telegraphic advices p( the arrival at that that port of the new iron screw steamer Fin gal, from Europe. Up to this time, we have not deemed it expedient to make any direct allusion to her whereabouts ; but further reticence, on our part, is now needless. The veesel cost about $200,000. Her engines are very powerful. Her carrying capacity is about 1,600 tons, and ahe was one of the swiftest steamers in British waters. xnere u noiaiog in American waters can cope with her. Her cargo consists of 12,500 Enfield rifles, 250 tons of powder, 10 rifled cannon, large quantities of blankets, overcoats, navy "and army shoes, saddler's tools for artillery purposes, suffl cient to equip four battalions. She also brings a 1 s ? -a large quantity 01 meaicue ana assorted goods. The Fingal sailed from Glasgow via Holyhead, on tbe 13 la ult., having cleared "for Maderia and the West coast of Africa."

TO A LOUISIANA BOY LEADING MEN THE ATTACK A correspondent of the Memphis .4peaJ relate the following incident of the battle opposite Co lumbus, Ky. : .. ' As a proUm. actor in Gen. Polk's staff, it de volved opon me to gallop frcm squadron to squad ron or our brave but dianeartened boys, wbo bad been broken and driven from the open field by the enemy in ambusn. While thus engaged, I dashed up to about one hundred men, screened by some fallen trees from the battery which had been captured, and turned alternately upon onr retreat ing forces along the bank, and our reinforcements embarking from the opposite shore my eloquence was evidently abortive, they Dad lound a sate re treat, and intended to hold it against all such "squibs" as mine. One man said (with an oath) be would not fight without Generals; but a small boy, about fourteen years of age, who had belong ed to Watson's battery, (I suppose,) sprang to bis feet exclaiming 'Give me a musket, and I'll fol low Gen. Polk." I immediately commanded the man who had refused to move to give the boy bis gun, and demanded the boy's name. "My name,", be exclaimed, (oefaeo,) "is Charley Dutchman, and I'm fmm L?ulsiana." "Well, Charley," I replied, T11 report yon to Gen. Polk, and yotj can report these men. In au instant they dash ed up the bank, led by Charley, and mingled in tbe fight. 'OharacterisUe of Louisiana be a," exclaimed Gen. Polk, when X reported him. SPECIAL NOTICE.

Dear Sir My wife has been suffering with Dyspep sW and Nervous Affection for several years, during wnicn time she was as 111 as possible to be alive ; all hopes of life, by her physician, as -well as by her rela tives and friends, were blasted. ' Finally she com menced, ia small quantities, the use of BAKER'S PREMIUM BITTERS, which, in the course of eight weeks, (by daily using them,) restored herto perfect health: I am equally I gratified to state that my ehiid, about eight years old, was long suffering witatr - Diarrhoea, attended daily by rn able pbysi eian, wiubout giving any relief; but the use of one bottle of these INESTIMABLE BITTCRS re stored him entirely to health' and vigor.
