Wake county, in which every part'pf the,coanty.'wM represent ed, to teke into consideration the planting of grain insiead of cotton a ndf tobacco, on motion of W, W. Whitaker, Gov. Manly was called to the .Chair, and N. J. WMtaker and C. J, Rogers were ap. Do'nted to act as Secretaries of the meeting. Gov ernor Manly then; arose and in a speech of some leueth gave reaaona why at this time the Farmers should unite in thia work, and referred to the dele- jerioas conaequencea : that probably might arise trom the planting of cotton kand ' tobacco and .a amalt crop of grain. j . " v On motion of M. A. Bledsoe a committee of five were appointed to draft resolutions for the action of the meeting. '. The said committee consisted of M. A. Bledaoe, Geo.W. Thompion, A.. T. Mial, W. W. Whitaker and Hen ry Mordecai. The com mittee retired, and daring their absence Mr. John H. Bryan was called for and entertained the meet ing ably until their return. " The committee reported, through Mr. Bledaoe, their chairman, the following resolutions : - Wherkas.

Vance, Therefore, I Resolved, That it is the patriotic and christian duty of every friend of Southern Independence to inaugurate the most rigid economy at home in or der to supply our brethren in the field, and those who need it for subsistence,, and not lor specula tion, with all of every article that can be spared for tbe subsistence of man or boast. - Resolved 24. That we approve of the plan sug gested by tho Secretary of War for ascertaining and procuring the amount or, surplus supplies in tne country, and that the Chairman of this meeting appoint a committee of three in each district in ibis county, for the purpose of putting it into im mediate operation, and that the District Commit-, tee shall constitute a County Committee, whose duty it shall be tc assemble in .the city of Raleigh, after they shall have ascertained the amount 6( surplus aurphoj in their respective district , at such lime as may be designated by the Chairman of this mealing, and report the amount of surplus sup plies, and the names of all persons who refuse to sell.

But, it will be observed by the reader, that S anly'a letter shows a con stant aod appreciative reading of tbe Raleigh Standard and its teachings. In his praises of Gov. Vance, he talks of . destructives,' the name given by the Standard to the true men of the South, and quotes from it the Winder,' that " North Carolina was a damned nest of traitors." It is a singular aod sig nificant fabt io the relations between Staolv soe, Hon. Kenneth Bayner, and W. D. Jones, and unanimously adopted by tbe meeting: . On motion of W. W.

It is true that some houses were burnt in Plymouth by Confederate troops. It is alleged that if was done to oust some Yankee thieves and marauders who had taken shelter in them. I hope thai this is ao, and that the act was not one of wanton wick edness. It is plarn, however, that if the Yankee scoundrels had been ht home attending to their own business, Plymouth would- not have been disturbed. The burden of tne sin reststherefore', upon the brutal invaders of a, peaceful and - peace loving people. I . ' . '.' :v! r May I not hope that your Excellency.the Mili tary Governor ot JNorth Uarolina.having rebuked Confederate atrocities, will devote a portion of of your valuable time to the excesses of the in fernal Yankees. In the gubernatoral peregrina-. tions of your Excellency from Currituck "to Cherokee the seaboard to the mountains you must have been struck with the remarkable - fact that thereare more houses burnt in a fkw eastern counties than in all tbe rest of the great State over wDlcn yoer iSxCeliency -presides. ; ; c It is observable tbat the oountifls so desolated are those in which the Yankee friends of your Excellency have been able to , penetrate. Your 'Yankee master, Foster, is accustomed j to make raids whenever he learns that bis forces exceed the Confederates .five to one. Your Excellency is well aware' that the path' of this murderer and freebooter has ever been marked by the glare of burning oburchescboolhouses, private residences, barns,' stables, fences, ,& .,&o. Your Excellency may have soma influence with these brigands, and a gentle hint to them that this may not b- the best way of restoring the Union would doubt less meet with their respectful attaction. North Carolina is peculiarly happy to have two Governors in this aad crisis.; Hr eivu Governor, at Raleigh has often bared his bosom to the dead ly bullet in defence of ")ii native State. Her military Governor has not tbouht it prudent to f"o-i gubarnatoriAl ipeison in baCtl'a. ; It ia to be hoped, however, that when he, has 'organ ized his negro brigaae, bis Excellency, the mili tary Governor, will (beving laid in an abundant sujply of cttarof roses and eau de cologne) put himself at its bend, and strike for his own, , his native Und. .'" ; : J-.-j: Tbe parallel betweAi Governors suggests anoth er between Generals. There was a Yankee j g n eral named Arnold, whotumed tory. There was a Southern general named Wnsbington, wno was a rebel. Toe 3rittsh honored the rebel and de spised the tory. North Carolina has a civil Gov ernor and, a military Governor -a rebel and a tory. Mean as the Yankees are, 'they respect the former and. loatlrthe latter. V . , 4 .
