Notmi Cahomna. Tho "pid North
State" has timo and again given unmis
takable; evidence, that she has never been
on the best of terms with Jiff. Davis nnd
j the fire-eaters. Disintegration in that State
goes on with greater Velocity than had been
expected by thoso who were familiar with
th elements of ehnructer which go to form
the good old " North State." Her antag
onism to the Culhounism of South Caroli
na, and her repulsion from tho haughty and
contemptuous nristocracy of tho latter
Slu'c, together with tlio great number of
middle clan and " poor" whiles comprised
in her population, have nlwuys tended to
lorce her into secession from the Confeder
acy, us a firpt step towards the restoration
of the old Union, nnd the signs nrc now
that North Carolina will soon resolve her
self buck into tlio old Union. The Ra
leigh Simula) d says the experiment of u
Southern Confederacy is a failure, entreats
the Stato to send Commissioners to Wash
ington to make conditions for n return to
the old Government, and defiantly chal
lenges tho Confederate authorities to at
tempt its suppression.
Gov. Vance tells rebel citizens of the
State that ho cannot protect them fiom
tlio 20,000 native Unionists who huvc
banded together in Must Tennessee nnd
Western North Carolina, unit who arc now
renting the rebel conscription and inti
mating that they will join the Union forces
as soon as a post is established at Raleigh.
Tho Governor ulso vows that lie will pro
tect certain conscripts from Jill". Davis,
and from his entire tone ono can see that
his nntugoni.sin to tlio Confederate authori
ties is strong an.l bitter.
Tho Union forces ure in possession of a
belt of country in Eastern Northern" Caro
lina .'100 miles in length, by 1 50 miles in
width, together with her great inland seas
nnd rivers, reaching into the heart of tho
Stale, also into Virginia. On these wu
ters the largest class gun-boats arc con
tinually coursing, which prevents the con
struction of fortifications. Hence it is
very apparent to all that so long as the
Federal Government is allowed to hold
possession of this vital region, which con
tains (lie most extensive inland waters in
the country, there can be no permanent so
cession of North Carolina, or evtn Vir
ginia Let Gen. Mcado destroy or capture
Lee's army, und then thu "Old S'orlh
Stato" will joyfully return to tho old
Union, from which she was unwillingly
driven, und close in her wako will follow
ult of her "wuvwurd sisters."

GuNKUi Mkaiik. A letter dated at Fred
crick. Md., July 8th, contains the following:
Tho popularity of General Meado with
the army and people bids fair to equal that
or McClellftii. llu is not yet known pcron
ally to the army, Rnmo of the Rrlgndier.?,
oven, not having formed his intimate ac
quaintance. His nnmo. however, Is resound
ed on all sides with eulogy and eiithusla-m.
At lat a leader Iiiih como wormy oi uie
confidence or a noble army. As General
Meado rode through Frederick yesterday af
ternoon it was whispered about from neigh
bor to neighbor ; soldiers conveyed the news
to brother soldier, nnd anxiety followed
surprise. Tho feeling of natural curiosity
which Impells us to go out of our way oven
to look upon n dlstingiilghed man was In
dulged in by citizen and soldier alike.
Ho; stopped at the United Status Hotel,
and was soon visited by a deputation of the
ladles ol tlio city. On being presented, wo
men's feelings wero expressed in wo
man's style. " God bless you, General,"
they would say, and with emphasis that
showed tlio wolds Issued from tho heart.
They asked him to accept their bouquet
and wreaths in token of the patriotism of
Frederick. ' I thank you," said General
Mcado,'' not for myself, but for my soldiers;
thev have won thu victory and to them be
long thu .laurels." General Meadu turned
to his stair olllcers. and to General I'ember
ton. renriiktd, in tlio prcoiiec of the Indies,
" Ono of these for you. lMeasauton ; not on
ly n brave, but a bachelor." General Mcado
shook the ladies nil by tho hand, and ex
expressed tho pleasure ho felt ut meeting
them.
General Meado Is exceedingly nfllablo in
conversation, easily approached, apd of
lively, engaging manner. Willi no out
ward pretentions to superiorly, hu preserves
a dignity which i uoticuhlo beneath hi
careless exterior. Ills form is gaunt and
thin, Impressing the idea of bodily tenacity
rather than Hlrcngh, mid a capacity to en
dure that wu would not predict of a more
robust and invincible figure. His high-top
boots and looso blouse aro bespattered with
mud, and, wero It not for his shoulder straps
and intelligent face, it would bo dillcult to
distinguish that he was not u private in the
ranks. Jlis lace is ulmie-t coveted Willi
hcuid. and his neck displays a leather stuck
that might have been used in the days of
his unccsters. Ho is ollierwlso collarless.
Ho Is ghastly palo, with thought, study
and anxiety marked upon every lineament.
His mind speaks through his eye, mid tells
you at a glance that before you stands a
man who is equal to any responsibility, and
not alruid (o meet it In any shape. His
nou Is of thu untiquo bend, mid is tho most
prominent featuru of thu face. Ho nppears
ti restless and nervous man. quick to move,
but not so quick that celerity would des
troy steadiness. When addressed ho turns
suddenly upon his heel, und Is all attention.
Tlio more you see ol him tho more you like
him. Thu army of thu Potomac has known
him only two weeks, and ho is their idol.

Kiw. A correspondent of tho Missouri Dem
ocrat, under dnto of July fith, thus speaks of
thu treatment received by tho prisoners,
from tho Federal soldiers, after tho surren
der of Vicksburg :
There has been yesterday and to-day a
very general expression of surprise among
the rebels at what they stylo tho gentle
manly manner of their Inukco captors.
Nothing has been dnno or said to humlllato
them. Our men. while conversing with them,
invariably admit that they have made a most
gallant defense of Vicksliurg, nnd carefully
refrain from any jeering or taunting re
marks. Their necessities and tho hardships
which they have evidently undergone, seem
to exclto sympathy or pity among our men,
and they vie with one another us to who
shall placu their late enemies under grcaloU
obligations. All tho many hundred sly
ways or dodging orders to prevent the sale
of whisky arc resorted to. and tho rebels aro
getting occasional nips of something better
than tho Louisiana ruin for which they Imvo
been paying Irom $10 to S1Q0 per gallon.
A drink of whisky will sot ten a rebel heart
belnro anything else in tho world, let mo
remark by tho way, and I almost think the
rebellion could bo put down by shedding it
profusedlv, Instead of shedding blood.
Tho privilege given tho olllcers to retain
their personal etl'ects, sido arms, and ono
horse apiece, if they aro mounted ollicers by
regulation, and tho prospects of several
days, of Federal rations among tho men, to
gether with tho universal politeness and
kindness which they did not expect from us,
Imvo completely won tho hearts of our ene
mies. It seems strange that men who, two
days ago, dared not show their heads ubovc
tho embankments behind which wo wero
stowed, for fear wo should send u shower of
Mlnio balls that way with deadly intent and
aim, and who never lost an opportunity to
send messscugers of death for us, should
now bo seen walking about tho streets, and
over tho hardly contested ground, in pleas
ant and social Intercourse, but so it is. And
wu Imvo hero a strong circumstance with
which In confute tho proposition that there
is an irrecoucilablu hatred between the
North and tho South. If theso men, who have
been so eagerly seeking each other's lives,
can lay aside and repress all the promptings
of personal roveugo and private animosity,
and treat tho quarrel iu which they been
lighting as a purely public ono that should
nut Interfere with personal friendship, why
should wo apprehend further dilllculty when
the force of arms has decided tho issue be
tween the two sections of tho country t
mi "- .wm
Tiik Ixkidki, Dutch." This is tho ex
pression used by l'ollard, of Ulchmoud, In
his Southern history of tho wnr, and t-hows
how unspeakably tho rebels lovo the Ger
mans who have been so prominent, and elli
clout iu whipping tho rebels into obedience.
That history, at pago VI, says :
" Tho West wis as violent as tho North
or Hast. In tho States of Iowa and Wiscon
sin, among tlio inlldel Dutch, no relu was
thrown upon their wild fanaticism,"
