': * L F-.HPGtC OF NORTH CAROLINA,
i -How Citizens: The necessities of our
c<- uitry, as represented by our Confederate
; uies, impel me again to appeal to your
generosity.
You are aware, that iu consequence of in
terruption to our railroad communications by
recent movements of the enemy, the subsis
tence of Gea. Lee’s army has become greatly
jeopardized. For at least a few months that
army will have to rely for Subsi ttence upon
North Carolina arto Virginia alone. I am in
formed by the Commissary Department, that
the usual methods of collecting supplies will
be iu.-.uflMent for the purpose.
*ln re! ere rice to this point, I need only cite
che authority of Gen. Lee himself, who writes
Vi follows in regard to a similar appeal to the
people ol Virginia :
•‘1 cannot permit myself to doubt that the
people will respondto it, when they reflect up
me alternative presented to them. They have
imjdy to choose whether they will contribute
noth commissary and quartermaster stores as
they can possibly spare to support -an army
which has already borne and done so much in
thqlr behalf, or retaining their stores, main
r .n the army of the enemy engaged in' their
subjugation. lam aware, that a general obli
gation ot this nature, rests lightly on most men
each being disposed to leave his discharge
;,o his neighbor—but I am confident that our
oit;.: ns vyiil appreciate their responsibility In
he case, and will not permit an •nny, which
by God’s blessing and their patriotic support,
ha: hitherto resisted the efforts of the enemy,
to suffer no v through their neglect.”
Ii seems, our all depends up
on the voluntary action of the people of North
Carolina aud Virginia; and trusting that what
ever you have to spare, will be promptly and
patriotically brought forward for the use of
your country, in its hour of trial—the following
plan is submitted, which is being acted upon
in the state of Virginia with the best resuits.
It is understood also, that provisions will be
received either as.Bales, loans or donations.
Ist. Let every citilz :n who can, pledge him
vdi to lurniab the rations of one soldhy for six
months, without designating any particular sol
dier a> the recipient of the contribution.
2. Let, those thus pledging themselves fur
ish 80 pounds of bacon and 180 pounds of
fljur. or their equivalent in beef or meal, to be
d-;i vered to the nearest commissary agent.
3. Le the donor bind himself to deliver one
hni of the amount above stated, viz: 40
pounds ol bacon and 90 pounds ol»flour
(or its equivalent) immediately, and
the remainder at the end of three
months, unless be prefer to adopt the better
! piaa of advancing tire wnole amount pledged,
I at once.
4. Let the pledge of each individual, sub
scribing and luruishing the rations of one
soldier lor six months, be made the basis of
larger subscriptions. Those whose gederosity
and whose means will enable them to do so,
may obligate themselves to provide the rations
of 5. 10, 20, or any number of soldiers for six
inonihs; while even the poor, who could
not afford to supply the ratious of oue mau,
may, combining, authorize one of their num
ber tQ make the designated subscription of, at
least, one ration for 010 man for six months.
To effect this, I earnestly recommend that
country and neighborhood meetings be imme
diately held in every portion of the State, at
which subscriptions may be taken up; and,
that a committee of responsible and reliable
gentlemen be appointed by such meetings, to
wait on those who do not attend, and ascer
tain what can be raised at the earliest possible
moment
And rest assured, that no patriot can better
serve his country than in so doing. By this
to -ms every possible ounce of provisious
nil k: can be spared for the support of our
.r. . .ay be made available,
Bliould you .not. Fellow Citizens, respond
to this call, you may calculate not only upon
seeing your own sons in the army suffer sand
■e defeated iu the field, so want of those
supplies, but you will have the mo tititjation
to behold them seized ancl appro iated to tbo
rit; port of the enemy who comes to destroy us.
Advancing as he. through the inteiior
of the land, without either water or railroad
communicati ons in his rear, hedsnow subsist
in : by the plunder and thd ruin of the people
oi South Carolina, and must necessarily do so,
when ho enters our State. Be assured, there
in it-, that every pound of bocon or beef, aud
every bushel ol meal.which you withhold from
your own tinny, is a certain contribution to
the uiaintainance of that of the enemy. Y; u
have therefore, to choose whether you will
feeil you” sons, who are bleeding in our defen
ce, or our ruthless enemy who armos our slaves
and lays waste our couutry.
To srow you, fellow citizens, tie earnest
impression 1 have of the necessity ol' this ac
tion, and that 1 will call upon you to make no
;j,e « lice which f will not share with you.l have
tendered to the Commissary Department one
half of my entire year’s supply, and expect
in put my ow.n family upon the limited
ru ikons allowed to our soldiers, regretting that
1 h.tre- so little to offer. That which is left
to sab.- Ist upon will he doubly sweet, be*
cause it will be the of honor and inde-
Coulideatly relying upon the generosity and
patriotism of a people to whom I have often
appealed and never in vain, I am, fellow
citizens,
Your obedient servant,

Liebig, the celebrated German chemist, has
gone to London to superintend tbe application
of the sewerage of London, to the purposes of

FROM TRANB—MISSISSIPPI,
Louisiana now presents the appearance of
the Carnatic as discribed by Edmund Burke
after the terrible raid of Hyder Ali upon its
plains. You can travel tor miles in ma.y por
tions ol the State, through a once thickly set
tled country, and not see a man nor a woman
nor* a child, nor a sou? footed beast. The farm
houses have bf>en burned—the plantations? de
serted—the once smiling fields are now grown
up in briars and brakes, parasites and poisonous
vines—painful melancholy broods over the
laud, and desolation reigns supreme.
Gov. Alien, of Louisiana, in his recent mes
sage to the Legislature, says there are now In
that State, two turpentine distilleries, one cas
tor oil factory, one establishment for making
carbonate of soda, two distilleries for pure
medioal alcohol, one rope walk for cotton cor
dage, one foundry for cooking utensils, ma
chinery and agticuitural implements, two cot
ton cloth manufactories and laboratories for
indigenous medicines. And he says he has
imported and distributed fiiteen thousand pairs
of cotton cards—selling them.to the soldiers’
families at. ten dollars per pair. At the factory
in Mindon there are three machines which will
soon be in successful operation, with the ca
pacity of making one thmsand -pairs of cards
per month. As these machines cannot supply
ihe demand he willcdntmue to import cotton
and wool cards/- 1 • •’
Gov. Allen, of i Louisiana, expresses great'
confidence in an earlv termination of the war.
Nevertheless, he urges' the employment of able
bodied slaves to “make assurance doubly
sure.” They sfiohlir’d'o the labor (says the
Governor) now imposed upon soldiers, and be
mobilized, aud used to military .di&iplme, to
be employed as an armed forep whenever ne
cessary. ' . .
