' There was a slight spn'nkliog of snow here sometime during Monday night, and Tuesday was a genuine cold winter day. Cases of hardships may sometimes occur, and when they come unavoidably, can be borne with out murmurir.g or complaint; bat such instances as the above letter discloses, the particulars of which were detailed to the writer of this arliole by the soldier himself, ought to recei ve frona the State of North Carolina, a course of treatment sanctioned or characterized by justice and libe ralty. . . - " I was," says the wounded soldier, " a member of Capt Wilson's Company, in the lamented Fisher's Regiment, and on the battle field of Ma nassas received four several and distinct wounds. The day after the light, I was removed to Louisa Court House, and there confined to bed thirteen weeks, under the treatment of a skilful surgeon and kind nurse." Who could look at this soldier, now an invalid for life, unable to use .either arm for they were pinioned with stays, and splints and braces, and sei.sitive even to a mother's touch, who had gone to the bed-side of her soldier-boy, at much incon venwsnco and sacrifice and feel no sympathy? Who will say that this wounded man, attended by bis aged mother, shouid not have been made thrice welcome to their, native State, whose soil her gallant son had gone to defend and save from desecration by vandal feet?

We have already published that the that is in the process of being I Convention of Kentucky, in session at Kussell- crrmdpd. the rails for it can be made at the e 1 mines. We hope, therefore, that by the end of 1862, if our life is spared, to have the pleasure of announcing that North Carolina has availed, herself of treasures as rich as . were ever bestowed on any people by a be neficent Providence, and that manufactories of everything to which iron is essential are ' in full blast on Deep River. The existing Rtilroads, but fr which our military opera tions would have been fatally delayed and embarrassed, are especially interested in this road to the Coal and Iron region, for inde pendent of the valuable freights which it will contribute to them, the manufacture of rail toad iron, and a rast deal of railroad ma chinery, for which "we have hitherto looked abroad, will be carried on in the heart of our own Si ate, and thus we shall supply our own wants, as well as thoee of such States of the South as have not been blessed with min eral treasures. The nils on our existicg roads will, under ti e present heavy and con stant pressure of trsnpcrtation, soon require to be substituted by new ones. The preaen rails wero -inoDOited from Wales. Should the war last a year longer, these rails wil cease to be available for purposes of trans portation, and it is easy to see bow deplora ble our condition would be, should our rail roads cease to be available, or be reduced to the condition of the old Raleigh and Gaston Road. A manufactory of railroad iron then is not only indispensable to our prosperity but to our fafety and liberty as a people. It is difficult to estimate the wealth of the Deep River region, or to calculate folly the effects of its development on the State. That it will render it one of the most prosperous en the continent of America we have not the slightest doubt. The Convention, then, wil signalise its xeal in the service of the State by lending a helping hand to a road so in dispensable to North Carolina as the one to Deep River. ville, bad appointed a committee to prepare a form of provisional government for that State, and that that committee had reported a preamble and constitution, which, without a dissenting voice, was adopted. The preamble states at length the grirvaocea suffered by the citizens of Kentucky, the usurpations of power by both the Federal and Slate authorities, and concludes by a declara tion of a serverance of the State from the United Slates in the following language: ' We do, therefore, declare that the people are hereby ab solved from all allegiance to said Government, and that they have the right to" establish any Government which to them may seem best adapt: ed to the preservation of their rights and liber ties. BURNING OP CROPS DEfOTED PA. TRIOTISST. v Lincoln's piratical cruisers will see by the light of South Carolina's burning crops bow vain will be the task of subjugating the South. As Napoleon read the doom of bis grand ar my by the Sres of Moscow, so may the Yan kees read the doom of their enterprise to conquer an enemy, who, in the spirit of the Old Guard," say, 'We may die, but will never surrender." MIf you invade our soil, and make good your foothold, you shall find it a bowling wilderness and achieve a bar ren victory.' " Tbe position of South Caro. line was never as proud as it is at the pres- . ent moment. She deserves the admiration and sj apathies of the lovers of freedom in every clime. 8 ALT ORDINANCE PASSED. . Oar readers will see that the ordinance for the manufacture of Salt passed the Conven tion on Monday. We regard this as a most meritorious measure, and, indeed, do not see what tbe people wouM have done in the ab sence of ir. The ordinance was very ably advocated by Mr. .Weodfin, Who deserves great credit for his efforts to secure to the people of the State, en reasonable terms, a supply of an article so essential to life as salt. N. C. STATE EDUCATIONAL SOCIETY. At the recent meeting of the North Car olina State Educational Society, held at Oreensborougb, we learn that our fellow- townsman, Mr. Willie J. Palmer, Princpal of the Institute for tbe Deaf .and Dumb and the Blind, was elected President of tbe So ciety. We have not yet been able to pro cure a synopsis of tbe proceedings, though we made an effort to do so. Salt. TlrtS New Orleans Craeeni states that it was generally undtu-ataod that there was suffl- oarse salt in that market on tbe first of Septem ber laft to cure 300,000 barrels of meat. This is as much as was ever received in that market for one year. To this, th) same paper states, has since been added 600,000 tusbels. The Houston (Texas) TeUpgpht of the 13th, also announces the successful landing of 3,000 sacks near that city, notwithstanding the blockade. HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT N.C. GtLWsoiw, November 28lb, 1861. QKNEBAL ORDZKS " I J No. 9. I. At the General Court Martial which convened at Net bern, N. C, pursuant to Special Orders, Ho. 93, from these Head Quar ters, dated November 8th, 1861, and of which Colonel Reuben P. Campbell, 7th Rt N. C. Troops, is President, was arraigned and tried Col onel Qtorgr. B. SingUtary, 27th Begiment of N. C. Troops, on the following charge and specifica tions : Caiaos Conduct prejudiced to good order and ft . military aijKipune. Specification 1st In this, that Col. Oeoroe B. Singletary, 27th Regiment N. C. Volunteer, did, on or about tne nignt or me 3rd November, 1861, leave Newborn, N. C, with troops and armed transports, without having received permission from his superior officer, Brig. General Hill, then Ereaent at bis post, and alter sa?d superior officer ad expressed his disapprobation of sending out an expedition from Newborn, and esneniallv ho. fore a thorough reconnoisance had been made of the position of tbe enemy at Ilatteras. hpecxfication 2nd In this, that said Col. Q. B. Singletary, being entrusted with tbe command Of an important post, did strip it of the Infantry rorce necenary w ma support oi tne batteries, and this too before the destination of the enemy's fleet was anown at tots pnai. bpecifica turn 3rd In this, that tbe said O. B. Situjletary did, on or about the night of the 3rd of November, 1861, release from arrest and em ploy as pilot on his expedition, two men confined in jail in Newborn, on tbe charge of disloyalty to the Confederate States. ' To which charge and specifications the accused pieaaea "Xot Uuilty." FlBSIKOS AWD SKNTEKCK OF THK CoUBT : The Court, after mature deliberation unon the evidence adduced, finds the accused "Guilty" of the charge and specifications preferred against Dim, ano aoes inereiore sentence nim. tne said Colonel George B. Singletary, of the 17th Regi ment of North Carolina Volunteers. "7b be re primanded in General Order i. and to be suspended from rank, command, and pay for tvx months." li. me proceedings, findings, and sentence in the foregoiog case, are eonfirased. - Accordingly, Colonel George-B. Singletary, 27th Regiment N C. Volunteers, is suspended from Rank, Com mand, and Pay, for two months, from the 22nd dsy of November, 1861. Tbe impropriety of setting en font, without the express orders of his immediate superior, an Ex pedition wbicb was to bave. taken bim so distant from bis proper command, is too apparent to re- quire comment. Rut to bave undertaken it in the face or tne known disapprobation of that su perior, so increases the militarv offanm. that it might well bave been expected that tbe Court would bave awarded a more severe sentence.

Then, how chilling must it have been to his feelings to receive but one formal addressed that to his pocket 1 in substance, " show your ticket or pay your fare." A great Corporation, with a capital of one million five hundred thousand dol lars, one half of which belongs to the State of North Carolina, with immense facilities for ma king money, in times like these can afford to be liberal to such cases, especially when its amended charter " provides that In cases of domestic inva sion or insurrection, the said company shall trans port tbe troops ana munitions of war of tne state of JNortn uaroina tree ot cnarge.

I would prefer neor to receive another cent of dividend on the few shares of stock which I hold in the Raleigh & Gaston Railroad, if it is to be made out of tbe volunteer soldiers who have gone into the army at much sacrifice, and receiving on ly $11 per month. It is not designed bv this, article to prejudice the R. & G.

The great interest which the war will give to that of the Secretary of War will be heightened by Cameron's distinct avowal of his policy of placing arm in the hands of slaves who are willing t use them" for the cause of the Union, i; ,H will support this by argument and hJstorio&l references ; and to show that his leading position upon this vital question has been deliberately and strongly tafcen; and as aforetaste of the administration hereafter of the . War De partment antil the close of tne rebellion, the pub-, lie will team with interest that Mr. Cameron will appeal to- Congress and to the Governors of the States for authority to. bind the Government to practice the closest economy, and to demand ac countability from every subordinate in the War Bureau and the army in the field, r Enormous as tbe war is and will.be, it will not be permitted to bankrupt the Government or the people. " -; '.Mr. Cameron's report will aleo probably contain recoramendations that will go far to abolish the distinction between tbe militia and the volunteers Among these will be the repeal of the regulation which conferr rank pn the regular officer over the volunteer of tbe same grade, leaving it to be determined by seniority, according to date of com mission. ' : V " - - - -s, - - '' Secretary Chase will recommend a necejsarily large increase of the revenue duties. , Tho neces sities of the Treasury during the war will require the tariff to be so shaped as to produce the great est possible amount of. income., A large inciden tal protection to American manufactures will of course be the consequence. ' Upon the vital ques tion of war, Secretary Chase will fully develop the theory that slaves in rebel States should be em ployed to raise the cotton, sugar, rice, and tobacco for Government account. This policy has already been established by Cameron in regard to ungatb ered and unginned Sea Island cotton n Beaufort. The nation will heartily approve the sotommen dation of Chase to Congress as a wiser disposition of slaves tan to leave them in the rear of the ar my, roaming at large, pillaging and marauding.

THE FUTURE PROS PECTS. ' ; ;, . '; ' , : The New York Tribune has an "article on tbe Financial Affairs of the Northern people, from which we extract as. follows : .' The "Commercial Advertiser" speaks of the expenditure of the Federal Government as ra--ther under than over one million dollars per day." . We deem this a gross understatement. There is not a man less than half a million sol diers (regular, volunteers and militia,) this day looking to the Federal Treasury for food, cloth ing, transportation and pay ; and our army has hitherto cost ' us fully $1,000 per man, or about $3 per day! We do not belei ve the average is Delow this at present, especially if the coat of recruiting and fitting out regiments is included. We believe r the outgoes - f the Governmentjincluding the blockade and the great Southern Naval Expedition, are fully 2,000,000 per day.or at least $700,00 ""jOOO per snnura. "When our armies shall have been ; fully recruited, clothed, and equipped, with cannon and small arms, horses, wagons, munitions, oca, dcd., it may be considerably reduced ; but we shall not be spending so little as $1,000,000 per day again 611 the war is concluded. The "Commercial" is misled by accepting the amounts of payments from the Treasury as the measure of the daily expenditure. But the Government spends faster than it pays, or else its contractors and creditors are -most: uncon scionable grumblers and liars. War is a costly business-more costly now than it was before railroads, rifled cannon and shells were invented-' It will be idle; to talk of sending our armies to winter quarters under this gigantic load of expenditure. I The war must and , will be pressed on with vigor to the conclusion. In June th country was told that that was no time for active operations we must wait till Novem ber ; cow it is whispered that we must wait till June again. It cannot be. The fact that we are under the conjoint in fluence of a short crop in Europe and the Mor rill tariff in America drawing specie from the Old World' while maintaining an army of half million men, besides an equal number in arms for the rebellion is exulted over by many as though we might reasonably expect to keep on drawing coin from Europe, while spending one URI FORMALLY ADMITTED--THE IWT OrLETTERS REmsTT55 1LFTH STAR W TELE CONSTELLA- A t Post Office at JUMa,, ii V8 ' resident on Thursday approved and.

We can hardly go on exporting grain at the rate of $3,000,000 worth per week for a year ahead, even if the foreign demand should not slacken, as we think it soon will. A month hence the Erie Canal will be closed, after which the grain cannot be" had in such 'abundance, even though the demand were unabated.

We have, by the help of a stringent tariff, retained all the gold that has reached us from the 'Pacific and added to it some $30,000,000 from Europe since this, atro cious war was forced upon us ; but we must be prepared to lose thirty or fifty millions in the course of 1862, should the war continue through that year. Had the tariff Of 1857 been left in force, we believe the balance of the trade with Europe would have been against us this year, and our banks thereby rendered unable to help the Government, as they nobly and wisely have done.

A friend gives us the result of ex periments in coffee-making, which, at this time. may prove serviceaoie . to Housekeepers. The "Old Dominion" coffee-pot is highly recommend ed, inasmuch as it makes the beverage clearer and better than any other, besides being economical. Wheat is now much used with coffee, and the following is the way to prepare it : Get some red wheat, (for there is. as much difference between white and red wheat as between Rio andLa?uav- ra cvffee.) soak it in warm water until the bran or ' outside becomes a little soft, (a few minutes will ' inffiiu 1 lata . fvsvM V . t 1 ' t - i w uvru iuo water, (iu psrcn n.
