Some four weeks have elapsed! since the recess was taken, and as during this time the members have . bad a good opportunity of mingling mth their con etituents, it Us to be hoped that the; majority of therbodyl will commence their labours in another and; better frame of mind than that i . j . ! which .characterized the proceedings of the first session Most sorry should we be to be lieve that anything like a majority of the constituent body would plaoe the seal of their approbation on the conduot of the mi joritv of the Legislature at its late session. Assembling! at the Capital at a, period of the greatest emergency, when the corntnop -enemy Of every State of the Confederacy, j with forces Of gigantic numbers and strength and with every means and appliance which mboey could employ to render them efficient,? was threatening tho Confederacy by 1 larid and sea at every) ' assailable, and vital pointy and when the cry went up that our soldiers in the field were ragged, blanketlosa and shoe less, and in this condition exposed to the frosts and, snows of -winter, the Legislature permitted, a session of six weeks - tol slip iway without contributing by way of Uegia ; lation one jiota to that cause on whioh o.ur all depends; Not a step was taken to sup ply a single necessary to' our destitaU and suffering army in the field, and when a bill war introduced to supply clothing to the suspected tpries, spies and traitors now im prisoned at Salisbury, an amendment that they should be supplied after our troops in .. the. open field bad been clothed and shod, was voted down by a majority of men I call ing themselves 'Conservatives!" Conser vative of hat? More conservative ; of the comfort of men whose conduct had laid jthem liable to the suspicion of infidelity to ;their country, than of that of the gallant men who are aay and night exposing their health audi their lives in defense of our holy cause and whose pressing wants were crying aloud for relief. ,m Of ;this grievous sin of omission, the majority of jthe Legislature stands corivioted beyond i the shadow of a doubt. Bat this majority; hqt only left undone what it ought to have cbne, but did divers things wnioh it ought, to have left undone. It j proscribed notoriously competent and faithful Cfiioers, - in order that the posts which" they occupied might be. filjed by men whose only claim was based ori'pattizansbip . and lukewarmness, if not mdifference, to theiciuse of tho South. A great deU of the 'time of the Legislature wa expended in conferring offices on mem bera of that body, as is clearly proved by ' the., fact that more writs of election have been issued to supply Vacanoies in this than in any Legislature since the establishment of! the uovernment. 1 H When not engaged in this work, tho!

THE PRESIDENT'S, MESSAGE. . Wo shall publish the admirable message f President Davis in our next issue. THE BATTLE AT MUEFi5EESBOEO,. As Uj enouijv ioporta of the late great battle jjiurireesooro' come to hand, the extent of General Bragg's victory becomes more apparent. All the boastful despatches that Boeencrans may write can never recapture the prisoners, arms and artillery carried off by Gen. Bragg, nor re hbild the wagons burnt by Morgan 'and Wheeler. These substantial evidences of victory attest how Well the gallant Bragg accomplished the work, and prove that though compelled-to yield the battle-field, he did su at his own time, and in toe perfect order of a General who, for his own good reasons, preiers resting nis exnaustea troops td risking the hazard of another day's battle. The biatlle of Murfreesboro', both to Genetal and to men, deserves to be ranked among the great bat tles that haye shed their lustre over the Confed erate States. If it was not as successful m w desired, it was- nevertheless far mora, destructive to the enemy than it at first appeared, and has put an end to all advance of Bosecranz. if it does not result in compelling him to seek safety nearer his bttfid rft Nash villa. - " - I This victory 13 by far the most complete won by our arms in the SoatkwwUWo do nul ro- gard the falling back of Gen. Bragg as detract ing the least from the glory of out arms or the im portance of our victory. j It is impossible to form a judgment upon this victory except upon tne statement or lien. Bragg and the reports of the enemy. But from a com parison of these sources of information, notwith standing the letters of Kosecrana to Halleck, and iiaiiecK to itosecranzftbe facts are fully made out that the enemy will be ruined by -one more such victory as that claimed by them at Murfreesboro. Richmond Enquirer. j The going down of the famous' 'Monitor", has even a deeper significance than is involved in the loss of that once formidable craft. It is this: All the new fleet of iron-clads intended- to. operate upon our Atlantic ana uuii coasts are "Moni tors' tnat is, they are built on the Monitor cat tern, with same deviation in .the details, but no uwpaiure irom ine external moaei, or general principles, or distribution ot weight and forces.

The charge is founded in truth, I upon stubborn and undeniable raots. ui wnom ! it fiomnoeed Of the old Union nartv of Fetm . - - B ruary, 1862, who declared that the seceding states had torn down and rebelled against, without jus cause "the best Government thaf ever existed." In a few weeks after this, Holden, the Editor of the then tlnion, now of the Conservative organ, said : "If the State is to be taken out of the Union, let the Union men take her Out ; happen what may, let the Union men hold on to the power which they now have." Xy- bave held on to tne power which they then had, and are now ex ercising it to the injury of the best interests of the State. The measures inaugurated by this or ganization are before the people, undergoing their examination, and will in due time receive their utter condemnation. - I shall not, Mr. Editor, undertake to notice every paragraph of this vile calumniator's com munication to the Standard, To do so would be trespassing too much on your" columns, time and patience. I shall only rebuke the fellow for his slanderous attack on the Old Dominion, believ ing, as I do, jthat when one of her sons fails to 1 perform this duty, he is no longer worthy of the name of Virginian. . Ahd again, he says : "A large portion pf North Carolina, it is true, has been ravished by the enemy; but a much; larger portion of Virginia has played harlot, "opened her feet and called on every, passer . by to come in." I assert that no fiend in hell is capable of conceiving or giving expression to any such Infamous iangga ibis when speaking of Virginia. Has not a much larger portion of her soil been ravished and de spoiled by the enemy? .Has aha not suffered more, lost more and made greater sacrifice! than any other State in the Confederacy T Have not her women' nursed and attended the sick and wounded soldiers from every State in the Confed- eracywashed and dressed their wounds 7. What, then, has Virginia herself dene to, or; said of North Carolina that authorizes the basest son of the latter to assail her T l; The Enquirer is not Virginia, neither is she responsible for what it 'publishes, If the Enquirer and the Standard are aflogger heads, let them fight it out; neither will ever gain a victory by assailing the State in which the other is published. ' " " Again, this writer says : ''She (Virginia) impu dently rebukes North Carolina, within whose territory, raked by the fine-tooth-coniVof Rich mond detectives, not a traitor can be ouni,for her want of devotion to the contmon cause, when Virginia herself has yielded almost as much strength to the North as to the South." So many infamous lies as the above quotation contains were never crowded together before in so short a sentence. When the writer of the communlca--tion under review is only puerile, blundering, inconsistent and absurd, I treat iiim as he de serves, with ridicule and contempt pass over the largest portion of it without comment. But when he asserts, positive falsehoods, the mildest usage he can expect is to have them crammed down, the foul throat-from which they issued. Of this na ture is the quotation last' made, contradicted and proved a lie by the very affirmation of its truth. In proof of this, I refer ell who are not willing to believe a lie upon the eredit of a common liar. There are traitors, I say it in sorrow and shame, to be found, and have been found in all the States of the Confederacy. This was the case in our revo lutionary struggle ; it is so now, and ever will be the case while cowards live, move and have their being. j .

In the West, the fortunes of war have been various. Battles have been foueht with fearful carnage on both sides, but the hopes of the enemy of any decisive results have been baffled. A review of the history of the conflict shows that the war has now entered its third and last stage. The first effort was to restore the Union, and that has been abandoned ; the second was tojeonquer the South and govern it as a dependency ; this too nas proven impossible, and has been abandoned : the third design is to destroy and plunder what they could not subjugate, but it we continue the efforts as in the past, this design will likewise be defeated, and we may 'confidently expect that this is the closing-year of the war. The enemy will possess neither spirit nor resources for continuing it into the? fourth year on so extensive a scale. We desire peace, but will continue the war at any sacrifice until our right to self government and the sovereignty and independence of the States are vindicated and established. Foreign relations are then reviewed. Our right to recognition is shown by referring to the past history of our states, some of which were recog nixed t(s independent by Great Britain in the treaty of peace of 1783, and had been previously allies in war with ranee. When our commission era "demanded recognition, they' were told that Foreign Governments could not decide between conflicting statements by our Government and that of the United States in respect to our mutual relations, and that Europe would simply recognize us as belligerents, and preserve striet neutrality. rnw m m . m " xnis apparent reiusai to ueciae was in reality a decision against us, because we were thus unjustly deprived of diplomatic intercourse on the same footing as our enemies. ; The question or the blockade is discussed at length. IU Invalidity Is sbown as tested by the principles of the treaty of Paris in 1859. The whole conduct' of neutral nations is summed up so as to show that they have enforced all neutral rights that affected 'us injuriously, and refrained from asserting those that would injure the United States.

As regard the hanging of the Editor of the Bulletin to a lamp post, we feel perfectly safe, for Mr. Holden would onlv attemnt that bv an ad vance upon the rear or "Under the cover of night. rerhapa.be would like to swing our emery to a post as did some of the mischevious men do for him in unariotte in 186I. to a swinging limb. The truth is, the J&ditot or the standard is a disappointed and most bitter enemy to every man or journalist who acts independently or his Vpin- 10ns, while those who court his approbation enjoy bis smiles. We will have none of it, nor do we dread his displeasure. 11 ad we the power, we would "Putin the hands of every honest man A whip, to run the raeged rascal Round each rugged rock." FKOM THE NORTH. SEMI-OFFICAL VIEW OF MEDIATION". TJie-Waihington Republican, generally recog nized as an administration organ, thus expresses itself concerning mediation : We are confident that we are on the eve of some developments respecting foreign mediation There are many straws which indicate how the wind is soon to blow. The Eiehmond Dispatch said', some days slnee. tnat alter tne Dame or .antietam propositions of peace ought to have been made: that beth parties could then have made proposals of this nature with periect propriety.. The . x . Tribune has a well considered arti cle upon the subject of foreign mediation, propo Sing the Swiss Cantons as the mediatory power it aoes not ODjectto the Jfrench Government making an effort in this direction, but is not so well satisfied with Jfiogland. Our people might be satisfied with the interference or mediation of the Swiss Oantons,or even of France,or most cer tainly of Russia, but never with perfidiqas Eng tano, if we eon help it Other indications are manifest that something in the shape of interference or mediation is . soon to take place. Alt' this may be premature and unfounded: still we are doubtless approaohing a crisis in our national affairs. We may not be pleased with the complexion our public affairs are assuming; still we know the utter folly of resisting the inexorable logic of events.. If we cannot, or have not. put down the rebellion, we cannot expect' nations which suffer much by our- quarrel to look on as disinterested spectators forever. . the i BATTLE OF .
