A letter to the Wilmington Journal from Hamilton, N. C., says: Hundreds of the most disloyal have already taken it, and in many instances volunteered; hired, no doubt, by the seven hundred dollars bounty offered by the Federal Government. The situation of the people of Eastern Carolina and Virginia is really heart rending. Men of all ages and classes may be seen going from one to another shedding tears like whipped children, at the gloomy prospect ahead of them. Near the town of Plymouth they have fixed a place for the people to go and take the oath.

The effect of the large bounty offered for re-enlistment will cause everything to go up still higher. Butler claims to have restored justice to the citizens of North Carolina and Virginia, who have come under his rule.

He was arrested, and the premises examined, and an axe with the eye bloody was found, covered with some loose fodder. It was subsequently proven that the negro was absent the night before — that he brought home a bloody axe, and hid it under the fodder. The print of an axe

The one, however, that seemed most probable to Butler's Judge (?) was, that he saw several rebel soldiers armed with axes; that one of them offered him $20 to tell him where Emma Blunt was, for he was going to kill her.
