FROM THE CAROLINA FRONT.
The enemy destroyed, tho lailroad as they

The Treasury Department had been removed

It was rumored in Charlotte that Wilmington
had been evacuated.
It is believed that a large force of the ene
my had been lauded ou the North Carolina
coast—destination unknown.
The cotton in Charlotte had all been remo
ved outside the city, preparatory to burning.
The Express Company succeeded in saving
all the goods in their charge at Columbia.
Gov. Vance had issued a stirring and patri
otic proclamation. He was also announced to
speak in Charlotte ou Wednesday, February
22.
When our informant left Charlotte, Rich

The Railroad from Charlotte to Greensboro

An Or fur to Bifugkes.— A gentleman who
owns*a large landed estate in Pickens district,
South Carolina, has generously offered the use
of it and of all the materials on it, during the*
war, gratis, for the benefit of those destitute
reliigees whom the State, or the cities of
Charleston and Columbia, may designate as
fit lecipients, and choose to send up. A few
thousand dollars would furnish them shelter,
and procure the implements of husbandry.
By planting time all necessary arrangements
can he nude. They can find profitable employ
ment in •farming, grading the railroad, mak
ing lime, washing for gold, and collecting iron
and copper ores. The estate is said to be
twenty miles long by twelve wide.

8. v-., who were bo fortunate ns not to have
their plantations visited and laid waste by the
enemy, have refused to sell provisions lor Con
fedcrate money to those of their fellow citizens
who have lost all.
This is said to be a free country. A man
has a perfect right to do what seemeth good
in his sight, as long as he obeys the laws. But
conduct ot this kind is not exactly the thing.
It deserves severest condemnation. The
partus have been guilty of great inhumanity,
to say the least. The finger ot scorn should
be pointed at them wherever they go.
From Bartow County.— A gentleman from
Bartow county says there Is considerable law
lessness in that section. Recently when rid
iug along, he met a man on a “sorry nag,”
who demanded that they should exchange
animals. The gentleman demanded his au
thority. The party at once drew a pistol, and
said that that was all the authority he wanted
The gentleman drew his weapon; whereupon
the “horse swapper” fired twice*—one ball l
hitting the gentleman in the right breast; strik
ing bis pocket book it glanced off. He at once
fired on his as-a'dant. The latter not liking
his rcaption turned and tied.

from Cairo 111., dated Feb. W states that a fleet
has arrived at that place from up Tenues***
river, loaded with troops and army materials

difficulty between the Confederate and United
States, and to this end sent three commission
ers, on February 6th, to Washington 10 nego
tiate friendly relations between the two Gov
ernments; and
Whereas, these having been refused recep
tion, Congress in Juno 1864, adopted and pub
lished to the civilized wor.d declarations of its
continued desire for an honorable peace, to
which the only response from the Congress of
the United States was the rejection by Jaige
majorities of all resolutions for an amicable
settlement of existing difficulties, and
Whereas; President Lincoln has recently an
nounced to three eminent citizens that the au
thorities of the U. S. wouldhcld no negotiations
with the Confederate States, or any of them
separately; that no terms except snch as con
queror’s grant to the subjugated would be ex
tended to the people of these States: there
fore.
Resolved, That while Congress regrets that
there is no ultimatum left to the people but
constant war or submission to terms of peace
alike dishonorable, it accepts in their behalf
the issne tendered them, solemnly declares its
unalterable determination to prosecute the
war with the United States until that power
shall deeistfrom efforts to subjugate them. aDd

Why do they Fear the People ?—There are
two or three newspapers in Georgia vh.uso
columns are continually filled with warnings
and threatenings against every demonstration
of the People. Why is this ‘l Certainly the
people are very much interested in the pres
ent state of affairs. Their honor, their proper
ty, the very existence of themselves and fami
lies are at stake, and is it wonderful that they
should desire to look into their own affairs,
and see how those servants to whom tney have
committed such important trusts, have man
aged them ? Ah! there is the rub. These
servants of the people do not appear willing to
give an account ot their stewardship. They
say everything is going on. well. Why should
the people trouble themselves about their af
rfairs? Those who manage for them know
what is best for them. AU the people have to
do is to light, pay their taxes, and lie low ami
keep dark—we will manage lor them. This is
in substance the language which those who
profess to be in the confidence of the Adminis
tration, and who publish ‘by authority,” have
been holding to the people for several years,
and the people with an enduring patience* aud
a confidence in their rulers beyond that exhib
ited by any other people on which the smrever
shone, have trusted, and paid and fought; and
suffered, without complaining, until many of
them have very little left but their lives and
their honor. In these trying times, many wise
and good men, believe it is time to take ah ob
servation, and see whither we are drifting.; To
overhaul the records, and see if we can, who
has been faithful and true to the cause and
who has been acting tor himself.
We hear none talk of deserting the groat
and glorious cause in which we are embark
ed, but only of correcting abuses, and giv
ing anew direction to things that are going
wrong. And who aie the men that would
deny the people the right of fooking into
their own affairs ? they not most of
them men who have cwnfortable offices mi
der the Administration, where free from
danger, they are gathering up large fortunes
out of the suffering people? These men
fear the people, and well they may; they
do not want the books overhauled; they do not
want to give an account of their stewardship, for
fear they may no longer be permitted to bo
steward. They want things to reck ou, they
are doing well enough, but the people have
begun to find them out, and hence tney fear
the people. We have not urged a convention
of the people, because we could not see how
Buch a convention could assist us in prosecut
ing the war in which we are engaged, to an
honorable issue; and to do that, we were will
ing to suffer and forbear as long as Buffering
would do any good. But if the people want a
comjention, it is their right and their privilege,
ana we are not afraid to trust them. If there
is any foundation for the report put forth by
some of the Administration journals, that
there is a disposition in some quarters to; I sell
us out, or give us away to England, France
and Spain, and turn us over to colonial
vassalage to those powers, then ccrtainif the
people have a right to be heard in conven
tion before the transfer is made. Or if tl.rit
other report is true that our rulers Live re
ceived proposals of recognition on condition
of the abolition of then .the people
should be heard in convention, before any
such bargain is made; for neither trie Pres
ident, nor Congress, nor both together, have
any right or power to abolish slavery without
the consent of the people. But wi.y should
the Administration journals -entercain such
great jealousy and distrust of the peepier
They are certainly as capable of judgh-., of
their own interest, as these nu n are to j ; we
for them; and we do not believe th-re lsj any
danger of their doing anything to injure them
selves. How, then, can the people in con
vention, injure these editors, unless then in
terest is separate ahd distinct from the re-t of
the people? This jealousy and distrust of the
people by men who profess to be in the coun
cils of tne adminishation, is calculated to
alarm the people, and to cause them to itur
that all is not right. With the present lights
before us, we do not sse what good a ccnven
tiou would do. But things may occur short.y
