Unionists (search for this): article 2
Late Northern news. We have been furnished with a number of copies of Baltimore and New York journals of late dates. From their columns we make up the following summary of news: The Bogus Union Convention of North Carolina--how it Originated. Some time since there appeared in this paper resolutions purporting to be passed by a Convention of Unionists at Hatteras Inlet, which Convention, it was intimated, largely represented the feelings of the population in that State, it being attended by delegates from forty-five counties. The New York Sun, (a Union paper,) of the 10th inst., however, pronounces the whole affair to be a farce. This it does on the authority of a private letter received in New York, dated Camp Wool, Hatteras Inlet, Nov. 30, which says: As for the Union Government in N. Carolina, I fear it is nothing but a big farce. The resolutions which you no doubt have read in the papers, began with something like this: "We, the people of North Carolina, &c.

hern ports caused cotton to fall in one day from $25 to 21 a cantar (hundred weight.) Twenty-five dollars a cantar is the highest price ever known in Egypt.--Prior to this time the highest figure was $28, the result of the Crimean war. The price is now about $18 or $19 the cantar. The Englishmen have begun to make advances to Fellahs on the security of their coming cotton crops, in accordance with the concessions of the Viceroy. I have the honor to be, sir, Your obedient servant, Wm. L. Thayer. To Hon. W. H. Secard, Sec'y of State. The privateer Sumter. The fact that the Confederate privateer Sumter had again made her escape has already been announced in the Dispatch. The following statement from Capt. Lyon, of the schooner Daniel Trowbridge, which was lately captured by the Sumter, will be found interesting: When overhauled and compelled to surrender, he and his crew were taken aboard the Sumter, and a prize crew from that ship took charge of the schooner.

Sir: --I have the honor to announce that the Viceroy of Egypt has again shown his good will to the U. S. by directing the Captain of the port of Alexandria to exclude all vessels bearing an unrecognized flag from the harbors of Egypt. Instructions to this effect, I am informed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, were issued about two weeks ago to consequence of a suggestion addressed to His Highness by their Consulate General. At an interview which I had with him on the 3d instant, at Cairo, His Highness also assured me that no privateer in the service of the domestic enemies of the United States will be allowed to be flitted out or to bring in any port of its dominions. The following passages, translated from a note sent me by his Excellency Nalar Bey, in behalf of the Viceroy, show that in the facilities for obtaining Egyptian cotton our manufacturers are placed on an equal footing with those of Great Britain. The note is dated October 18, and is in reply to some inter

Lyons was thirteen days aboard the Sumter, during which he was treated with the utmost kindness by both officers and crew. Of her armament or number of men he is not communicative — his parcel of honor especially forbidding any information on this point. Released from confinement. We learn from the Louisville (Ky.) Journal, of the 7th inst., that the two Newport gentlemen, H. G. Helm, Esq., and Robert Maddox, Esq, arrested by the order of General Mitchell, appeared before Judge Ballard of Louisville, on Tuesday last, and were by him discharged, there being no charge against them. Wm. B. Glaves, ex-Sheriff of Harrison county, and Perry Skerritt, Clerk of the some county, who were arrested at Cynthiana some two months since, suspected of sympathizing with the rebels, and sent to Camp Chase, near Columbus, Ohio, have been released.

Mr. Seward is hopeful, as we would have him be, for he always looks at the bright side of things; but he must hurry up his magnificent coup, or we shall have to set him down as no veritable prophet. The Milwaukee Negroes going to Chicago. The Milwaukee Wisconsin states that nearly all the colored people have left that city for Chicago, having taken fright at the lynching of Clark, which occurred there a few weeks ago. "There are now," says that paper, "not more than ten or fifteen left in our city. In Chicago there are over 800 of them, and there they are employed in all manner of occupations — as waiters, barbers, hack drivers, stewards, porters, etc. Here there is not one employed as a waiter, nor as a porter, nor as a hack driver, an

This grand convention, representing North CaroliNorth Carolina, "free and independent." was addressed by a Tribune reporter, (the only one here, I believe,) a Mr. Foster, now an Hon. M. C., and Gov.

ho were performing picket duty for Gen. Smith's division yesterday, having strayed beyond our lines, attempted to return this morning, when, on being ordered to halt by the guards, turned and run. One was shot by the guards in two places, and has since died, and the other was taken prisoner by them. As the guards had been changed during the absence of these pickets, they evidently supposed them to be enemies. Formal complaint was made to-day to the War Department by Gov. Andrew, of Massachusetts, against Gen. Stone, for, as is alleged, compelling the troops from that State to assist in the restoration of fugitive slaves. The Provost Marshal has determined to revoke all passes which have been transferred, and to punish those transferring them. A number of arrests have already been made. Seward called to account. The St. Louis Republican, notwithstanding its abolition proclivities, takes Seward and his prophecies off as follows: The prophetic Mr. Seward, who in
