W0IC declared and itrgC?fby Gov. Vance in ’
l,i> various addresses’before the people, in
ihe late campaign, and advocated by the
Con.-'Ci vative press. What are these prin
ciples ?
1. The supremacy of the civil over mili
tary law. •
•>. A quiet submission to oil laws, xvhotn-
er good or bad, while they remain on our
statute books.
No reconstruction, or submission, but
perpetual independence.
4. An unbroken front to tho common
cnmiy ; aud timely and repeated negotia
tions for Peace by the proper authorities^
5. No separate State" action through
a Convention; no counter revolution ; RO
combined resistance u» the gurernmetU.
0. Opposition to despotism in evert' form,
niid tho pre-orvation of Republican instj. •
unions in ail their parity. ; - ;

tially the Baine position.
Gov. Vance is among those who believe
that the preservation of civil liberty, dor
ing the existing war, is not incompatible
with the objects ofthq waryor tho best
interests of ilie Confederacy: As Govern

ho is determined, so far as his power lies,,
that tlfe people of North Carolina shall
be “ free in the means, as well as in the
