It is great disparagement "of North, Carolina in war between the States." It. gives vrhat purports to be- a correct list strength of the North Carolina regiments, and was furnished by the late Major John B. Neathery, of Raleigh, "who was during the war a clerk in the capitol, made, up for Governor. Vance a statement of the strength -of each of the State regiments when over to the Confederacy, "and in 1577, a day or two after Governor Vance; took office again aa Major Neathery gave me the original' document." Now if Major Neathery's figures are correct, then what? He gives' SO.OOO: troops only, save one. If that be correct then there has been a vast deal of ignorance and, bragging, and t3ie grand old State did no better, than other.

States; in proportion to population. But are Mr. Neathery's figures correct? Did North Carolina fall 45,000 behind the supposed correct number of troops? Wa respectfully submit this. Governor Vance caused to be prepared a Roster of the North. Carolina troops while the war.

was progressing. Major James" H. still living, had much to "do with the work, as wa have long un-. derstood. What will he say to that 80,000 limit? Then Governor Vance, the greatest, of war governors by odds, in a speech delivered at the White Sulphur Confederate Vnany years after tho war, stated that North Carolina furnished 125,000 soldiers in the Such is our recollection.

If he" was so ignorant as jj to claim; 45,000 more soldiers than were really, furnished, then it was the duty of Major Neathery to have informed him- of the facts and supplied him with the precise; figures. Governor: Vance was a most and truthful man and would not lie for to play the part of braggart. Was he in error? We have never examined the Roster, have never seen a copy even. We heard long ago that it over 131,000 names. 'We heard farther that, many names were repeated twice 'and some perhaps over three times.

We have supposed that 5,030 or 6,000 errors had occurred, and we have generally placed the number; of troops at 126,000, making allowance for errors. How many does the Roster, show? Does i the history the regiments recently written under the highly patriotic editorship of Mr. Justice Walter Clark (lie not charging a ceri for. it and his undertakinff in completing the editing, of the colossal Colonial 1 authorizing the "that North Carolina did not furnish. the troops, claimed theretofore but only iWe shall believe it until farther dence is forthcoming than Mr.
