Peacéable? Seces- sion” has drawn. to a close, and perceive the sun-of peace beginning to shed-its- effulgent rays. upon this lately benighted land. of the South, ‘and avepreparing to ‘enjoy its bless- ings-and . congenial warmth. The true men that wee torn from their ‘sorrowing families by the..damnable conscription, return home rejoicing thatthe Government of our Wathers nas. vindicated: its: majesty and caused ‘its power to be felt ; ‘while the contemptibte, white- liveréd “secesii,”” who. caused the poor man to be'forced to the carni- val of death, while they fought the “ Yankees ’”. by speculating. upon the necessities of the Starving wid- ows and‘orphans,.come in at the eleventh hour and swallow the oath of allegiance as they would a dose of arsenic, in the vain hope that they can palm themselves off as loy- al men and be permitted to take pos- session of and retain property that they would.“ burn before it should be polluted by sheltering the van- dals of the North.” But that mat- ter will be decided ‘by ciyil tribun- als composed’ of men of’ known loy- alty, and who can distinguish the sheep from the goat. So motett. be, {We léarn from the New York Herald‘of tne 22d ‘inst, that an or- der Has. been issued from the War Department,providing for the must- ering out of-the service of all offi: cers and men whose: time expires previque.to September 138th, 1865,” The Union Meeting to-morow. Let every loyal man of this town and vicinity attend the Union meet- ing at Lee’s Millson Saturday.— Work, earnest-work is now required to bring, the old North, State back into the Union from which she was so ruthlessly torn. Good ‘speakers will be present to address the meet- | ing. Union menof Plymouth! see that none of your number remain at homey to-morrow; but be sure that every man who: has remained true to the Old Flag attends this meeting, which will take place at 10 o’clock in the morning:. Let there be'a:full attendance.. Bar A great many families are constantly arriving here in every steamer from Newbern, Some of them have been absent from. the time the war commenced, and are now. returning to their homes.— Alas!'they too often find them | burnt to the ‘ground,,and nothing left to remind them of. their once happy homes but bricks and rub- bish,—a sad memorial of the deau- ties of secession. } §# We learn froma great many sources-that avlarge number- of: the officers and men: belonging to the different regiments that have been inthis State intend to return after | they are mustered out, and setile down. Let them cotite, they wilf meet with a cordial reception.— Yankee enterprise and. labor would place the old North-State far ahead of some of her more fortunate sis- ter States. : ie Gen.

A list can. be found at the-.oflice, a _ + *: i We reeeived yesterday, through the kindness of a friend, the New York Herald: of the 22d, from which we glean the following news. Jeff. Davis and his party have arrived at Fortress Monroe, and the cdsemates of the fort are being prepared for the reception of the party. Gov. Vance of this State has al- 80 arrived there from Newbern un— der, guard, and he will be disposed of the same as the other prisoners. About five tons of rebel govern- ment documents, hurried off into North Carolina from Riehmend on the evacuation of that city by the Jeff. Davis conclave, arrived at Fortress Monroe on Friday last from Newbern; in eharge of Col. * Treat of Gen. Schofield’s staff, They were captured by the Feder- al troops in this State. The examination of witnesses for the prosecution in the assassination conspiracy trial at Washington, was concluded on the 22d inst. The ounsel for the prisoners, it is said, have about two hundred witnesses to testify in their behalf. The grand Review at Washing. ton of Sherman’s army, Potomac my, Sheridan’s troopers and oth- er veterans, comprising altogether bout 200.000 men, took place on Tuesday and Wednesday last. The spectacle was oue of the grandest over seen in this country, and rare- ly inthe history of the World. The| ity was densely crowded with peo- ple on the occasion. Gen. Sheridan has left Wasking- on for his new command, and in— tends to clean out the ary of Kir- | by Smith and the other fragments of therebellion west of the Mississ- ippi river. Gen. Molineaux, of New York, has taken formal possession of Au- gusta, Georgia,and has found about 100,000 bales of cotton, 10,000,000 doHars worth of ordnanee and othér rebel stores, and 45,000 dollars in bullion. A part of Jeff. Davis's Specie train was captured, and eno hundred and eighty-five thous- and dollars in’ gold was secured. The rebel Commodore Farrand, of Mobile, has surrendered himself and all his command to. Rear-Ad- miral Thatcher. FS LOO EAT OCA LE TIES EE LEI: LOTT TO EEE Be. It will be seen by the order of Gen. Sehofield, published in this paper, that th@® Brigades of Gener- als Palmer apd Hawley are to gar- vison the Coast Districts of this State for the present. Among the regiments in. Gen. Palmer’s com- mand, is the 2d Massachusetts Ar- tillery, Col. Frankle, four compan- ies of which have been in this place for the last six months. ' The regi- ment has been in service nearly. two years, in this department, and, although it has garrisoned some of the most unhealthy places in the State and done a great deal of hard work, yet it numbers some 1800 men at the present time. Quite a number o. these are one year’s men, whose time of service expires in September next. The health of | the regiment at present is very good, although quite a large num- ber of the men are troubled with the fever and shakes, a malady very prevalent in this department. wey In accordance with the| President's proclamation, all re. | strictions on trade, except the ne- cessary ‘l'reasury regulations, have been removed, as has also the pass system. People can now visit Plymouth without being obliged to have a pass. kas- There is now telegraphic communication between Washing- ton and Macon, Ga., and the same wires which were recently used by the rebels were lately employed in transmitting the President’s Procla- mation, offering »a reward for the arrest of Jeff. Davis and others. HeapQuarrers, DEPARTMENT oF NorTH CAROLINA, (ARMY oF THB Onto,) P Raleigh, N. C., May Mth, 1865. General Orders No, 3b. Maj. Gen. J. D.
