CoL" George Little, of Raleigh, has declined
the offici o? Manhal for the District of North
Caroling tendered him by Mr. Lincoln.
We. call attention, to the notice of Col.
W. B. Flaaner, to be found iaoar paper to-day.
i Coll Flanner saw service in Mexico, and, if suo
t cessfol in railing his Company, will do good
; service to the State, or Confederate States.
Eead the eloquent and stirring appeal of
the Comjnittee if Safety. It has the ring of ' 76
in it, and. will nerve every arm and swell every
heart with the determination to act nobly and
to do, or jlie in the glorious cause in which we
are enlisted.. Read it, we say-, and circulate it.

' the "Dofila Riflemen" has tendered the services
of his gallant Companj to the Governor, and
that his men are eager! waiting to ;be ordered
to te forts or wherever they can be of serrice.
This Company, as we learn from a correspon
dent, "are prepared to- pa j their own expenses
and the expenses of all there who desire to go"
to the 'fort.'; Old Duplin is all right, and if
North Carolina has to strike.blows in thU war,
she will tigal.her share of them .
gTt fight which occurred in Baltimore
yesterday etweea the Massachusetts troops and
the dtiienl must hare a powerful effect upon the
sentiment tof that city. While we regret that
the miliitry of the city were not called upon to
resist the passage of the troops and while we are
compelled to admit that the affair can only be
regarded as an act of popular violence, still the
fact that the blood of Baltimoreans has been
spilled fa, the street of tbeirwn citjr, bj troops
sent from he S'orth to make war upon the South,
must rouse up a sentiment of resistance, ' regard
less of who were first to bUme in the affair.
Papers liLe the American trj Jo palliate" the con
duct of Gov: Hicks in responding to the call of
" the President for troops, and" endeavor to show
that hii-to&ject ii to protect the city of Baltimore,
but it will, not do; In fart t is utterly incon
sistent tfithany such purpose. A majority of i
the people: of Baltimore are said to be in sympa
thj with, the South, although there is a strong
Lincoln part j there. We think' the city i in a
lamentable condition and the Southern (portion
of the community haTe our heartiest sympathy.
-
alse Pretexts fori the War.
In the -Course of an ablc'nrticle on the false
V pretext, which the North makes for tbe war
', which it is about to wage upon lis, the Richmand
Dispatch says : . j
. If we go back behind the tilings of the prescut
hour, and consider the occurrences that had
. preceded and led to them, the case is even worse
against' the aggressive section. What right of
the North" has the South ever violated? What
interest or institution of the-North has the South
' ever attempted" to impair orjimpeach ? What act
of aggression against the North h:i3 the-Sonth
ever committed or sought to commit? On the
contrrj,j when has the North ever ceased in
some ferm to trench upofi the constitutional
rights at the South ? to assail her purposes and
character? and to indict her before the"world for
the heaviest crimes against God and nature? The
whole history of the' Union forforty years has
been a jiistorj of one continued war of defama
tion an 3 kfcnder by the North upon the South.
' Finalr) tie South, wearied' with insult; loathing
herself 'for' the long-suffering .tolerance with
which she has borne this incessant vituperation;
9rushedwith the conviction that her own gal
lant and chivalrous citixens are ceasing to respect
her for Infidelity to her name and character, and
for insensibility to wrongs inflicted with every
cirCuAstance of aggravation desires simply to
. withdraw" from an association which she has
reason to inferU as irksome to her associate as to
herself. -She endeavors to effect this separation
peacefully and. amicably., She appeals to the
interests and the good sense of the North in be-
a half of snch A mode of dissolution. In the lan
guage of the patriarchal shepherd, shje implores
her confederate td go to the right that she may
go fb this left, . and to let no strife arise between
- the one people and the other. All her overtures
j are rejected, wjth epithets of rebel, traitor
l ' Insurgent.-
, Finalff, actual war is letied, and because she
- recognizes the fact of war and acts upon the fact
she is pronounced the aggressor ; and the whole
North rise as one man to do what I Is it to
save the Union? No ; for war destroys it hopelessly.-
vjtli to conquer the South. It i3 to re
dace hereto the condition of a subject province.
It is to establish over her, not a government
of will ar- choice, but an arbitrary government
of force.-:,f has is to be inaugurated the princi
ple of coercion on the Nrth American continent.
Thus is to be oterthrown the principle otrcon-
ent, for .which so much blood was shed, so many
years of struggle were spent, and so mhch glory
won, incise war of Revolution. Thus is the
. corner stole of American institutions to be thrust
aside ; and thus the fairest fabric of liberty that
erer lifted its lofty proportions for the admira
tion of nations, to be leveled in the dust. When
tbe principle of consent is overthrown, then the
; Revolution-of 1775 is repudiated, and all the
brilliant pages of our American history a his
, tory of national liberty and prosperity u nexam-
'pled to? l obliterated in blood. It is for this
fell worlj fhat the North is nnisteringits legions.
The inferable, despotic puritan arms him
self to crjfi out this principle of consent, to un
do theNvJUile work of '7G, 'tising even the very
rhouUof-Xhe minions of George III,
with the;rbels-Death to the Traitors.

' " For the Herald.
Let us be United.
However much many of as may have, a short
time since, desired to perpetuate the United
States, such a wish is now useless, and allliope
of any conservative feeling on the part of the
North must vanish. Every newspaper from that
taction informs' us of the action in support of
Lincoln's coercive policy, of nun, cities, and
States where many thought there would be
found a sentiment in our favor. If there is any
one, then, among" the readers of this articla who
still clings to the hope of a Union, or does not
enter, heart and hand, in the struggle that seems
inevitable, let me urge him for the sake of every
interest which Is dear to man, by that love of
liberty which was inherited from our forefathers
j to unite wholly and entirely in the common
I cause.
It those who can possibly leave their busi
ness be found at their post,- and those who can
not, do so as soon as possible, while "exempts"
and those who do not go shouM furnish provis
ions and other necessaries.
Let me again urge all men who have been
Union" now to give their hearty co-operation.
I think it more than probable, Mr. Editor,
that had North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee
and Maryland passed their Convention bill this
evil, would not now be upon us.
ONCE A-UNION MAX.
AS APPEAL
From the Committee or Safety of the
Town of Wilmington.
FeIxow-Cituess : We are in the midst of a
revolution, unlike the old in this that while
our fathers eoptended against a foreign oppres
sion, we are driven to defend ourselves against
,men of our own race and blood, who have sev
ered the ties of consanguinity and friendship,
who fcave trampled upon our rights, and who
now denounce upon ns the doom of traitors, un
less we will consent to cover ourselves with the
shame of cowards. A people who will neither
suffer us to live with them in safetyrnor apart
from them in peace, sustained by all the power
of the Federal Government, are about to iuvade
our homes; and to precipitate upon us their
Northern hordes for a war of conquest and sub
jugation. Already their ships and men are
mustc-rintr in this unholy cause, and the roll of
their drums, and the strain of their martial airs,
. - .1 1 Ol.-ll
aer. liearu upon every -oriuern urewe. csuan
we send baclc no answer but an idle remon
strance? Have we no stronger argument than
words ? Shall we, who have ever been faith
ful, in truth and honor to the compact of our
fathers, shall we sit idly down and wring our,
hand, while our brethren of the South are
fighting like men in our common cause? Let
our brave boys at Fort Caswell answer let our
old men, who are all ready to follow their ex
ample, answer let our women, who will never
suckle cowards, answer. North Carolina has
sons enough to protect her honor and to conquer
her safety. Let us,, thtu, prepare tor every
emergency and go forward to meet the coming
danger without fear, and with manly hearts.
In in in ils and heart3 we are already prepared
But something more is necessary. We must
prepare ourselves in our habits of life. Our
gallant town must bear at leiot, her fair share
of the.privations that are before us. Wilming
ton must not be unequal to the exigencies of the
times, or the . demands of her honor. Let us
bravely look the truth in the face. Our com
merce will be prostrated, our resources crippled,
our credit paralyzed. The treasury of the State
will be severely taxed. The sacrifices of a gen
erous patriotism will make liberal draughts up
on our private means. Many 'of -those who will
eo to tight our battles will be dependent upon
their daily labor, and their helpless families will -
be committed to our charge as a sacred trust.
To deny self, and to endure, are as much the
part of true manhood as to do. When the Old
revolution was imminent, our fathers learnt thi3
lesson first. The first Continental Congress
which met in 1T74, pledged themselves and their
constituent) "to discountenance and discourage
every species of extravagance and dissipation,
anil "especially all expensive diversions and en
tertainments And the Wilmington Commit
tee, m their appeal to the people enforcing the
observance of this pledce concluded with these
memorable word3 "Those who will take the
trouble of makiag observations on mankind,
must soon be convinced that the paople who
abandon their pleasures for the public good, are
not to be biased by any other consideration.
Many will cheerfully give up part of their prop
erty to secure, the remainder. He only is the
determined patriot who willingly sacrifices his
pleasures on the altar of freedom."
Fellow Citizens After this wise example of
our fathers we now appeal to you. The differ
ences that have heretofore existed among us
have been swept away by the expectation of a
common danger, and the hope of a common tri
umph. Let us now endeavor to fill our hearts
with charity. Let us also "discourage every
species of extravagance " and wasteful excess.
Let U3 practice to live in good order and sobri
ety, and with strict economy and temperance in
ali things. Let us learn how noble it is to deny
ourselves, in order that we may give more lib
erally . to a sacred cause, and minister to the
wants of those who suffer for it. Every dollar
now saved by economy aod self denial for pa
triotic purposes is a double blessjng. We com
mend these things to your earnest consideration,
and may. lie who holds the nations in his hands
dispose us so to live that we may not only at
tain. l-ut be worthy, of a bright and glorious
future.
Committee of ( Safety of the Toien of Wilmington.
TnK Defexces of Mobile. It will be a work
of iimeand some magnitude to effectually de
fend the' various entrance by which hostile gun
vessels can easily gain admittance to MoDiie
bav. As we briefly show elsewhere, . tbe city
can be approaehed by tbe Choctaw Pass route,
and by the" way of Spanish river from above :
rand, in fact,can be shelled by ten-inch Colum
bians on,toarda vessel laying off in Spanish
river, right opposite. The best precaution of
security against so disastrous an, occurrence,
tlu-u, is to defend the city itself; without wait-
ing for the securing of the passes into the bay.
The tfity can be quickly and effectually de
fended against a naval force by one battery of
Co'umbiads, eight or ten inch, on Choctaw
Point ; and a ! battery of lighter pieces on one
of the grass ) islands from which the Spanish
River Pass may be. commanded. Then we should
have a movable battery of effective pieces in
the city itself."
We do not urge that there is much probabilit
ty of the city being attacked, but it is a patent
j possibility that it can be, and may be, and it is
! wise to guard against it. Fort Morgan was
j erected for the protection of the city, and the
; idea of its erection was to defend the city against
attacK. in
attack, lhe progress or modern warlare, as
t.rr:.cU - ,I bv improved war shipping, disappoints
to a uetrriH' the design of that rortrj, ana oui-
cr works are now needed. The object of Fprt

the, works nt the month of Mobile hay, it is also
woj'th protecticg by works at other joints

Proclamation by John EHii, Got
ernor of North Carolina
Whereas: By Proclamation of Abraham Lin
coln, President of the United States, followed by
a requisition of Simon Cameron, Secretary of
War, I am informed that the said Abraham Lin
coln has made . a call for 75,000 men to be em
ployed for the invasion of the peaceful homes of
the South, and for the violent subversion "of the
liberties of a free people, constituting a large
part of tbe whole population of the late United
States : And, whereas, this high handed act of
tyrannical outrage is sot only in violation of all
constitutional law, in utter disregard of every
sentiment of humanity and Christian civilization,
adn conceived in a spirit of aggression unparallel
ed by .any act of recorded history, but is a direct
step towards tbe jsubjugateon of the wholeSouth,
and the conversion of a free Republic, inherited
from our fathers, into a military despotism, to
be established by worse than foreign enemies on
the ruins of our opce glorious Constitution of.
Equal Rights. j
Now, therefore, 1, John W. EHis, Governor of
the State of North-Carolina, for these extraor
dinary causes, ! do hereby issue this, my Pro
clamation, notifying and requesting the Senators
and Members of tbe House of Commons of the
General Assembly of North-Carolina, to meet in
Special Session at the Capitol, in the City of
Raleigh, on Wednesday the first day of May next.
And I furthermore exhort all good citizens
throughout the State to be mindful that their
first allegiance is due to the Sovereignty "which
protects their homes and dearest interests, as
their first service is due for the sacred defence of
their hearths, and of tbe soil which holds the
craves of our glorious dead.
United action in defence of the sovereignty of j
North-Carolina, and of the rights of the south,
becomes now the duty of all.

; From the Mobile Register, j
Invincibility of a Brave People.; !
History affords no parallel to the struggle by ;
which the United States of the Netherlands (for
this was the true style and official title of the
Dutch Confederate Republic) achieved theirrei !
Iieious and political liberty. It was this Strug- j
gle which drained Spain,; then the greatest em
pire of the world, so completely of her resources
and vitality, that it has tAken" her more than
two hundred years to even partially recover from
the exhaustion. To the poet, tfie dramatist ana j
the historian,' 6f every language, this contest, j
I the most unequal, the fiercest, and the mostpro-
tractea on recora, uas ueen an eyer ieruie uu v
favorite theinel To the American .colonies it af-
forded an encouraging precedent, and, accord
ing to the reeords of the Convention of 1789, ;
suggested the name which, till a few months j
ago, described the greatest Republicin the world. ;
Eighty years the contest lasted, one genera- j
tion inheriting it from the other, and these eigh- j
ty years w.ere marked by events of such tragic j
horror as too other period of history was known.
Populations of whole cities lived for months on '
vermin and shoe leather ; armies forded the broad j
channels of the sea at low tides, every' man up to
hia shoulders in the water for fifteen andtweutv
miles, and losing a third of their number in the j
tearful midnight march; the billows ot the ocean
wererlet in upon the low 1 jnds that- the hated
Spaniard might be drowned; and when every
hone seemed to have deserted the doomed oeonle
-,k,i !,.:!. ani rcAiv-
ed men, women, children, all, a whole nation
a home where Provideuce mijr'it guide them.
Tliis picture 13 not exaggerated, j and it proves
that under the most udvorse circumstances a
people, truly unanimous and determined to main
tain their liberties, cf unotbe conquered by any
foe. . j ' j
Read the contrast between the combatants, as
described by the Amdrican historian, Motley, in
his last work, the " llistory of the United Neth
erlands," and say whether it does not inspire
you with new hopesj for the contest which we
ourselves may have before us,' . .
The contest between those sever! meagre prov
inces upon the sand banks of the North Sea, and ;
the great Spanish Empire, seemed at the mo-
ment wiih which we arc now occupied a suffi
ciently desperate one. Throw a glance upon the !
map of Europe. Look at the broad maguificent
Spanish Peninsula, stretching across eight de- ;
grees of latitude and ten of longitude, comman- ;
ding the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, with
a genial climate, warmed in winter by the vast j
furnace of Africa, and protected from the scor
ching beats of summer by shady mountain and
forest, and tampcrate breezes from either ocean.
A generous Southern territory, flowing with
wine and oil, and all the richest gifts of a boun
tiful nature splendid eifies the new and daily
expanding Madrid, rich in the trophies of the
most artistic period of the modern world, Cadiz,
as populous at that day as London, seated by
the straits where the ancient and modern system
of traffic were blending like the mingling of the
two occans Grenada, the ancient wealthy state
pf the fallen Moors Toledo, Valladolid, and
Lisbon, chief city of the recently conquered king
dom of Portugal, counting with its suburbs a
larger population than any city, excepting Paris
in Europe, the mother of distant colonies, and
the capit.il of the rapidly developing traffic with
both the Indiesthese were some of the treasures
of Spain herself. But she possessed Sicily also, !
the better portion of Italv, and Important de !
pendencies in Africa, while tbe famous maritime
discoveries of the age had all enured to- her ag
grandizemcntl " The world seemed suddenly to
have expanded its wiugs from east to west, only
to bear the fortunate Spanish Empire to the most j
dizzy heights of wealth and power. The most .
accomplished generals, the most disciplined and
daring infantry the world ever beheld, the best !
equipped and the most extensive navy, ro3'al j
and mercantile, of the age were at the absolute !
command of the Sovereign. 'Such was Spain.

A QUESTION FOR MATHEMATI
CIANS AND ECONOMISTS.
TF 1860 feet of gas is consumed through eight
burners, in 9 nights, at a cost ot i per inou
sand feet, how much is consumed by each burner
per hour? at what cost, and what would be the
cost of an equal amount of light obtained from
Kerosene ,' Oili Answer : There is consumed by
each burner, 25 feet per night, or 6 feet jer hour,
at a cost of 6 cents jer hour, per burjier. Four
Kerosene Lamps .afford as much light as 8 gas
bufnersj "4 gallons of Kerosene Oil will supply 4
lamps one month, which, at $1,20 per gallon, is
$4,80 per month, or a cost of one cent per hour
per lamp; therefore, by burning gas, theexpense is
only six hundred per centum greater than to burn
Kerosene Oil, which, with Lamps, can be had at
the RENDEZVOUS of the Inimitable
janl2 . CASSIDEY.
T IS A HISTORICAL FACT that South Caro
