Xxxvii. Instead of a matter of surprise that the good Abraham Lincoln sometimes lost his patience, I always wondered that he kept it at all. As soon as Mr. Edward Stanley reached his post as Provisional Governor of North Carolina, he made a striking display of his power by ordering the Colored Schools recently established by Vincent Colyer and others to be shut—they were forbidden by the Laws of the State! Mr. Colyer hurried on to Washington and called on Mr. Sumner, who at once drove witanction of the United States. In writing to a friend three days later, he said, Your criticism of the President is hasty. I am confident, if you knew him as I do, you would not make it. I am happy to let you know that he has no sympathy with Stanley in his absurd wickedness, in closing the schools; nor, again, in his other act of turning our camps into hunting-ground for slaves. He repudiates both, positively. In the same letter he also said: Could you, as has been my privilege often, h

It was a small party, consisting only of two ladies, who seemed to be connections of Lord Mulgrave; the usual proportion of aidesde-camp and secretaries; Mr. Harcourt of York; Mr. Stanley of the Derby family; Mr. Vignolles, one of the chaplains; Wilkie, the painter; and myself. . . . . When Lord Mulgrave came in he spoke to every one, not ceremoniously, as he did the other day, but very familiarly. He sat down first, asked us

Late Southern news. From our latest Southern exchanges we make up the following summary of news: Arrest of non, Edward Stanley, of North Carolina, and his nephew. We regret to hear, says the Lynchburg Republican of Saturday, that information has been received, via Manassas, that the Hon. Edward Stanley and his nephewEdward Stanley and his nephew, Capt. Fablus Stanley, U. S. N., have been arrested at San Francisco and lodged in jail. These gentlemen are natives of North Carolina, and it was suspected by the miserable Lincoln despotism that they were about to return to the States for the purpose of resuming their residence in the South. The Hon. Edward Stanley representeThe Hon. Edward Stanley represented one of the North Carolina Districts in the Federal Congress for many years. A regiment of Choctaw Indians tendered Gen. Floyd. The following correspondence, which we copy from the Rockingham Register, of the 12th inst., explains itself. Of course the War Department will accept the offer of the services of this regiment
Affairs in North Carolina. The Yankee Governor, Edward Stanley, visited Elenton and its vicinity a few days since. With reference to the coming election in that State, he said he would allow no man to be elected to office who was not a Union man, and in case of the election of a rebel would arrest him if possible. The people have nominated M. L. Earl for the Senate and Lemuel C. Berbury for the House — both of them being Confederate soldiers now in the army. He arrested Jos. G. Godfrey at Pine Hill, and sent him off to Fort Lafayette. Nearly all the gunboats in Albemarle Sound have gone to James River.--The Yankees are running off negroes from all parts of the coast. About 600 have been taken, who fled from Currituck and Camden counties to their Yankee protectors at Suffolk and Norfolk. Thomas A. Jordan, James Freeman, James Wiggins, William Beeman, and five or six other prominent citizens of Gates county, have been arrested and carried to Suffolk. A body of 2,000 Yankees

The last correspondence. A correspondence between General D. H. Hill and Mr. Edward Stanley, the bogus Governor of North Carolina, has recently appeared. Our limited space has excluded it from our columns, a circumstance not much regretted by us however, as the war of words indulged by the parties to it can afford no gratiftercourse with the enemy, maintained a hearing honorable to themselves and worthy of the nation they represented. We regret that Gen. Hill has, in his epistle to Stanley, descended materially from the dignified position so signally maintained by his distinguished colleagues in arms, and which had contrasted so favorably for us wits distinguished colleagues in arms, and which had contrasted so favorably for us with the bluster, brutality and blackguardism of the commanders in the enemy's ranks. The General's merited fame on the field is not at all burnished by his contest with Stanley, who proved, even more than a match for him in the language of epithet.
