" that while little, can . done towards vitalizing the .energy, and .Ua of North-Carolina,1- unless -baaed on regular State action, as bankruptcy And; tiistrUst interpose namurs iu iiiouiuu invest ments from any source whatever, yet it is, conceived that a plan for general , good is , rea(y for development at5 the earliest mo ment of the State's preparedness to receive it. Though as you may know, not conceding that any of the planting .States were made better off hy release of slave lalxir; (it is not necesary here to discuss the question whether the slave himself has been thereby improved,) never,' WyVoncedinV this; still taking the condition xf the South as it is, it is proper for all who value the future well-being of the country to cast no olwtacle in the w ay of. resuscitation of a common interest and prosperity, so far as hope will carry us in its leadings. It is to be fearqd that the, control of the cotton market of the world was lost when the conflict begun between North and South, for whilst in 1860 the United States contrib uted 75 per ceut of the aoove staple product to the race, in 1865 and 18G8,and even now, only a.bout v 40 , per cent .is rendereL And when taking into the account that England desires and designs the control "of this pro duct, disregarding us in supply, it becomes : manifest wc can hardly ever restore this bal ance of profit nnd influences, but are to look to new conditions of things for whatever pro gress made. In a word, we have localized ourselves by the war, and cannot hope to occupy that general character for national resource before attained ; and the paramount query is", what must be our future course and effort in rearing upon tlic present platform of Southern State existence and destiny, the best ultima thule we can ? All th humble writer of these lines can say is, with the native resources and that heir Jooni oi her. people integrity and vir tue, It is at least not impossible but that North-Carolina will not be preceded by any ' of her Southern sisters. ' She was too great . before the war; too great in the war, not to ' be great after the catastrophe is over and she. stands upon her broad acres of inherent weal tit,-, and in view of unsullied honor and glory. V Could it now done, a plan is ready, com prehending andtvbracing largely their future development? but re Convention soon to assemble being nearly rfgaujc in character and work, the ensuing Legislature can only adopt. Your people must therefore wait, and while waiting, harmonize on the one idea of co-operating in any scheme imparting vi tality to the agricultural interests, and the development of the mineral resources of the State. .' You will remember that when Prance was in much more straitened circumstances, (the tinvesof ffenry 4 th ;) war without, grief and desolation within her agricultural resources were so great, that like a phoenix, she arose from the smouldering ruin, presenting in a few years a most remarkable and happy in stance of self-vitalization. In a word, "war ran never utterly ruin an industrious, agricul tural people. Viewing the future of the cotton States from this point, their course seems to be to expect no such position in the eye of the world as once held, nor in the scale of national wealth, nor iadced iu their ' own esteem in a certain sense, bnt that they one and all may and will emerge to respec table elevation, and enjoy great prosperity, no doubt should be entertained. You canuot expect large influx of capital while having so general distrust among your selves for scarcely one of yonr.iwn brokers would lend to his friend ; but become pre pared to sanction influx of labor with stern motives for work; to give assurance that loans made on internal improvements shall be safe from private or public repudiation, to receive any and all aid that may flow into your limits and erelong things will change and your populatiou be happier. Respectfully, L. P. OLDS. Congress. WAsnisGTON, Jan. 6, P. M. House. Mr. Upson, of Michigan, introduc ed a resolution, directing the Committee on Reconstruction to enquire into the expedien cy ot authorizing the several Constitutional Conventions, elected under the Reconstruc tions acts, in the States lately in rebellion, to appoint all civil officers, whether State . or county, in said orates, to act temporarily, and until the State Constitutions shall be adopted therein, and officers shall be choseu and qualified to fill said offices, and that, for this purpose, said Conventions may remove all civil officers now acting in said States. " Mr. Boutwell moved to amend the resold tion, to instruct the Reconstruction Com mittee, to enquire into the expediency of authorizing the General of the Army to de tail officers for service in said States. Also to enquire into the expediency of constitut ing each of said States in a separate Military District, nnder the command of the General of the Army; and also as to the expediency of providing additional legislation to secure the elective franchise to all ; and also, to declare, by Act of Congress, that the Provis . ion Gwcrnnyf et up in said States bv order of th' Adent are not Re" pu Wu-.an , ; ;n,lnent. riHr.

PROOFS OF THE SUPERIORITY OF THE AMERICAN WALTHAJI WATCHES. This country has reason to be proud ot this splendid specimen oi American operative genius and enterprise. That it will work a revolution in the watch manufacturing of the world 110 one cau doubt who examines the operations of the Waltham establishment, for it turns out watch movements at just about one-half the cost of im ported movements beside the uniform reliabili ty of the inacbine-made watches must give them a great advantage over all others whereverknbwn. jj .A poor time-piece of the machine make will be p as rare in the future as a good one of band make :j lias been heictofore, for machinery is arbitrary in ij its performance, and can make a perfect article !i just as easy as one that is worthless. It will be 41 cause of congratulation if this highly useful !; American Enterprise shall have the effect of driving out of market the thousands of trashy ' iforeign articles miscalled timekeepers, by furnish : ling so excellent and economical a substitute." !

' - ----- "We notice with regret (writing of the Paris j Exposition) the absence bt specimens of Atneri- can manufacture, -which, although only cotupnr satively of recent- birth among us, is already pro ducing results of the most satisfactory character. The watches manufactured by the Waltham Company are certainly, so far as strength, dura bility, and excellence as time-keepers are con cerned, as good as anything produced by the Preach or Swiss manufactures.''
