And the Standard has been appealed to, to j dispute tliis claitu. G"d wot it seems to us that ibe first impulse of a loyal mind, would hare Wen to repel this audaciews iosolence with fitting irfdination ; yet the Standard is deaf to the appeal has renjaiue! silent and permit this title to it to remain undisputed. I .-iter to-day, almost see the following : K M Nor.rtf CAKoMXA A CON VESTMS CAJ.l.- Kl M ikltDK FKO-I THE SOUTH KX CON - . .. j lio-Tox, j.m. A correspondent oi me Travi i! i-, in writing fnm Ntwbern, X. C, states that lufor-o ttiou Jiivt reaeneti mere mat a card had been is?ued at Italeigh for a State ConVentioii for the purpose of g( celi;,' frm their allegiance to the Southern Confederacy. The writer s.iy.s: "(Jovernor Vance ami neady every leading man in North Carolina desire to return t the Union." lie aUo t-ays: "An army of live thousand metr under Gen. Ibitirr could march to Raleigh, take poses'ion of the capital and free the fStite frotrwthe rioc of the traitors in one month's time. .-' .. h an army would receive an eiiihu.dastic welcome there and all along the iiuuof tuaieh. S. sa ijieu who know." What inspires these hopes in our enemies ? i'is the aeii u of these meetings, and their publication in the Standard. And the reason' why Cuv- Vanee is thus misrepresented is, becau.-e these meetings tie hint to them by their laudatory resolutions. Il is idle for the Standard to say that the nip representations of its enemies produce this mi uutlers't.nidintj. ( ):ii dash of it pen one column, accompanied by demeanor, con duet and association, would raise it out of ihe.se a(iiiliat:ons and set it riht before the cou: try and the woild. If it tails to try this remedy, thus powerfully invoked by the "'- presence of the malady it cantiot complain if public, sentiment shall consign it to the hospital of ii.fectioas and postiferoiis disease. 1 f the Standard would be assured of the tfieet of its publications in foreign lands, we tei I it f r its benefit, that our own State agents, the Coiifi derate. Agents, and private enterprise, have all Ix-en binJerCil in Europe, in their eiVorts to benefit the C infotlorate Stabs, by a settled opinion of disloyalty in North t 'tioliim, approaching da' by day to wurd the . ceiasion (.f the State, and its re union with the Inderal Government and this opinion del i red from U-litoriitls and C iinmuiiicatious copied burn the Standard int." Yankee j urna!s, and thence into the a hi 1 tion .sheets of 1. union. i'or the tiuih of this, .he Standard may refer to almost uny ci'.i.:en who within the past year has -peut much tinre abroad. Velull take up otir third ptoposiliou to morrow. I'oncjiiss iwCi the Press. The Itichmoii'l Dispatch says truly, that the Confederate Congress, unless it is tlreir intention to stop the daily press of the Con . .. ... , i federacy, should amend tJi.it portion, of the act I ... . . 1 ,1 c 7 , 1! 1 1 0 " ! the punt'i's iin.bone clitor of a daily press. We tit not suppisethat the action of the Senate was designed to p.iralyz? the groat or gan of the popular mind and heart, and to stiike dumb the 'epe iking trumpet which has stunui-mcd this nation to the battle. We arc inclined to the tielief that their ac tion ai'o.e from ignorance of the details cf a daily oilh.e, and from supposing tint a daily new-paper, can' be got out like a week ly newspaper, wlu iv the editor is often his 7. wn b.Kikeepcr, reporter, writer, pressman and picker. Now, a daily paper requires, in addition to the editor proper, reporters iu both brain hes of Congress and of the Legislature, and the Courts an. I rnaikets; iid after.jt is written and printed, it requires tfte services of m v. ial (Inks, wilting all night long, to co cf i.e an. 1 direct the paper to its multitude oi -ub viibej--3 throudi the. mails. These aie j a s necessary to the piper as pritderr?, and tueh pel -ions have always been found necessary in daily papers since daily papers were iii exis tence, 'faking the number so employed in Ib.-hrviond, which a contemporary states at i ,. t nty-four, we do not suppose that the mili taiy law would add o.ie bundled nieii to the army. Is it worth while, for such an addition, b. stiike down what all free. nations Have cou" sidered the " Palladium or Liberty ?'' Joint Uuoi.rnox of Tjianks to Nohti (,'.!: i. in a Tttooi'.s. Mr. Ileade, our new Senat- r iu C-.ngress, offered the billowing ou Saturday la. t, which wis unaiiitnotnly adopt ed .

And Sir. Smith., of N.

It sends to tho pi ess at an enormous expense a vast quantity of mat ter which a newspaper would not clip from an exchange. For instance, it is telegraped frm Orange Coutt House that Mosby cap tured two men and thre-s horse on a cer tain occasion. We'd, who cares if lie did '. Another sends us the import tut news that the weather is 'cool ami clear" or cloudy and windy." Well, what of it" Another geu.is forth the message that ten Yankee prisoners, cap tured at such a place, have jut arrived. Well, who cares ' A Congressional reporter seinls his speculations ail over the country every day, about the proceedings ef CongresS. They are very good, but editors have to pay fur them, and they dan't want to do it.- All of these tbiaiis and a thousand others are the gross abuses of tbe Press Association.

If he is once more on licr decks wc my ooo expect.to hear of more ConfeJerate piracies. It is an astonishing thing that the hundreds of Yankee cruisers on the alert for Semines and Mafiitt always make out to miss them. It speaks volumes for the skill and energy of those commanders, that they have ?o leng successfully eluded the pursuit cd the whole Yankee navy. , From Portsmouth.
