Wc way say, in addition to what is stated in the Circulars we herewith publish, that our Government particularly desires a faithful and scrupulous discharge of tbetr duties under the laws of too United States, of all Postmasters and Contractors throughout the Confederacy, lie specially requests that none will resign or cease tocontiuue their present contracts, mak ing all returns, and paying overy all monies, to the United States Government as heretofore, until such time as our Government shall have made arrangements to attumo the whole ser vice. North Carolina. On the evening of the 15th instant, a large number of the most respectable citizors of Ca barrus county, N.C., met at Concord, the county site, to select delegates to a Southern Rights Convention to be held at Charlotte, in Meck lenburg couuty, on the 10th instant. Cabarrus county was originally a part of Mecklenburg, and we see that the ancient fire of indepen dence which eo distinguished the settlers of that county, still courses through the veins of their children. There is no portion of our country whoso early record present! a more glowing page of patriotism and valor than Mecklenburg county. It was the “ Hornet’s Nest ” of the Revolution. In this county vtas adopted the first Declaration of Independence, that declared the people by whom it was adopt ed, free and independent and absolved from all allegiance to the crown. This declaration was adopted at Charlotte, by a convention of dele gates from differed portions of the county, on the 20th May, 1775—over a year before inde pendence was declared by Congress. The sec ond resolution of that declaration is in these words: “That we hereby declare ourselves a free and independent people; are, and of right ought to be, a sovereign and self-governing association, under the control of no other power than that of our God and the General Government of the Congress; to the maintenance of which inde pendence, we solemnly pledge to each other our mutual co-operation, oun Lives, ora for- TOURS, AND OUR MOST SaCRZD HONOR ” This declaration was uTgned by all the dele gates to the Convention. A copy was forwarded to the Continental Congress, at Philadelphia. It witl be seen that Thomas Jefferson, in draft ing the Declaration of Independence for Con gress—which was adopted over a year after wards-copied it in pait from the one adopted at Mecklenburg. Governor Wright, of Georgia, was alarmed at this movement, and sent a copy of it to the British Government in London, and said he would “not bo surprised if the same should b»* done everywhere else." Our space forbids us giving further notice of the patriotic conduct, and tho many heroic deeds of the people of Mecklenburg before and during the war of the Revolution. At the meeting held ia Concord on the 15 th instant, the following resolution was adopted : Resolved. That as tho Conuty of Cabarrus, in the year 1775, was a component part of the an cient county of Mecklenburg, and that as her treasure was spent and her blood flowed for tho defence of the rights of the people then, ro wo now aro willing aud ready to unite our destiny with her as of old. in defence of her rights, and that to this end, the Presidort of this meftin,; appoint eighty-five delegates. We shall look with much interest for the pro ceedings of the Convention at Charlotte, and give the result thereof to our reader* as soon as we receive them. Wc believe the Old North Btate is suro to secede aud unite her destinies with ns, and that without waiting long. The people of North Caroliua aro more clearly iden tified with ui in feeling, interest, and every thing else, than Virginia. ^WTlie Union party af Tennessee have called a Convention to meed «t Nashville on the 2d day of May next, to nominate a candi date for Governor. We notice that Gen. Felix K. Zollicotfer it urged by his friends for the nomination. Hon. James M. Quarles is a can didate for retleotion to Congress from the Nashville Disttfot. The "Union A American " desires to know whether Mr. Quarles is in favor of making war on the seceded States, or of recognizing their Independence. Wo consider these pertinent enquiries and hope they will bo frsukly an swered. Throughout all the slaveholding States which still remain in tho Union, there will bo, In the coming elections, a Union and a Secession par ty.

Savannah, March 20, ISO]. Nothing of any special importance occurred iu the Convention ou yesterday. We expect the report from the Committee to arrange the Sen atorial distriats, to bo presented this morning. It will, however, meet with decided opposition in consequence of ihe great injustice which has been perpetuxted in the actiuu of the Conven tion upon this subject. According to the re port, I learn that Fulton aud Cobb counties are placed together, iu connection with Clayton — This will be far fruin satisfactory to Marietta, and not eulirely acceptable to Atlanta, ia con sequence of the very natural rivalry between the towns and the difficulty which a mutual representation would find iu reconciling con flicting interests. The Convention will adjourn Friday or Sat urday. Yrurs, Ac., P. Savannah, March 21, 1601. The Convention have to-day adopted the re port of the Committee appointed to arrange the Senatorial districts, and unless it should be reconsidered, (an effort for which will be made to-morrow) your district will be composed of Fulton, Cobb and Clayton, in decided oppo sition to the will of tho delegates from the far mer two counties, from the apprehension that a harmony of interests cannot be obtained, though not a delegate from either county, so far as I know or believe, participates to the slightea extent in tLo /eeling of hostility which it seems to bo understood exists between the towns of Atlanta and Marietta—the whole question, however, will l»e submitted to the people. This, then, msy probably—almost certainly—te regarded as the final action of the Convention ou the subject of “ Reduction/’ viz: reducing the Senate to forty -four mom- b ra, to be elected from the. same number cf districts, composed of three counties each, to hold their seats the same period wi»h the mem bers of the House of Representatives— leaving the latter precisely as it stood before. The committee upon the organization of the Congressional districts will probably not report before Friday morning. Upon thi* report tbero Will n-t be much discussion or aishgn emont, us it is only regarded a temporary arrangenieut, t> Btnnd until the Legislature chooses to niter it. A resolution from the Committee upon Con stitution and Laws was adopted, authorizing the Legislature lo make a cession of terrilor; - f >r iho permanent Capitol of the Confederate States of America, if, in thoir judgment, it would be to the interest and safety of the State. The Committee upon the Constitution and Laws will report in secret session to-morrow morning on the Constitution of the £fa‘e ef Ge >rgia— the entire revision of which the/ have been direct- 1 to make. A day or two will probably be consumed on thi? instrument. The Comm t'.es Military Affairs will report this afternoon ia seerect sef-sfon, and will doubtless bring questions of importance before th- Convention —some of which inay prove to lo •• knotty.” You tliue perceive that the Convention has still a Icrgc amount of labor fo perform, but, ith the determination to adjourn at the earli est possible day, and the disposition lo make the best use of the time, it is thought that an adjournment sine die will le obtained by Fri day afternoon. Yours, Ac, P. Captain Lick's Volunteer Company.—This Company from Atlanta, the first, we believe, which offered ita services to our new Govern ment, passed through this place on Tuesday afternoon last, on their way to Pensacola. We bad the pleasure cf making tho acquaintance uf the gatlaut Captain, whom we found to bo no other than su old acquaintance.

[Circular Inter, J\o. 1 ] Oonfepkratk States of America, I’o-a Office Department, Montgomery, 1801. Put:—It is tho wish cf this Government that all postmaster? and o'her employe** in the postal service should continue to perform their duties as such, and render all their ao counts and pay all inuneys to the order of the Uuited States, ns they have heretofore dooe. until the government of the Confederate Si ate# shall be prepared to assume the entire couirol of its postal affair*. This will be done an soon ns practicable. But the causes of delay inci dent to the organization ot the department an such a* to place it. out of my power to deter* mine definitely when tbe new .service will be substituted for the old. Any attempt lo mix the employees of the two goverum^n's, in the same service, would be wholly impracticable. And no removals or appointments of postmasters, or others, in the postal service, will he made by this depart ment, nor will it receive returns relating to or moneys derived from tht postal service, until i. shall assume the entire couirol of tbe scr vke. If tbe government of iho United States should cease lo curry ou this service, before i his depart men! slntli he organized and prepar ed to take ch-trge of it, no great shocks to tbe public interest** will be produced by suoh a course, ns the Postmaster General is authoriz ed to continue, provisionally, by proclamation, the present postmasters, and others in the pos tal service, iu office, and to continue existing contracts for currying ibe mails, until newap- poinlmeols and new contracts can be made. We must regard the carrying of our mails, at this time, by that government, as n great public necessity to tbe people of both govern ments, resulting from their past intimate po litical, commercial and social relations, and alike important to preservation of the present interests of the people of both countries. And while that goverument, by its action, consults such considerations, our government and peo ple should act with the same high regard for great public interests. Such a course on our part, springing from such motives, will pre serve tho character of cur people, without im pairing the dignity of our government, and may lead lo ths transfer of our postal service from the control of the old to that of the new goternmsut, with far less injury to tbe peo ple of both, than would necessarily flow from precipitate and inconsiderate action on the part cf either. I au>, very respectfully, Your obedient servant, JOHN II. RBAQAN, Post nr'.ster-General. [Circular Letter, No. 2.J Confederate States or America, Post Office Department, Montgomery, --—■1861. Sin : The Government of the Confederate States will not interfere with any existing contracts, eutered into botween the Govern ment of the United States and the present oontrsetors, until it assumes tbs entire con trol cf its postal affairs. This course is ren dered necessary by tbe ottsr impracticability ef mixing the employees of two Governments in the same service.
