Mr. Roebuck mado an election speech .
at Sheffield fill the J7th ultimo, and in
the course of it lire following question* ;
question of great importunes, not only
to Sheffield, but to the commnnuv at
large, lie ah00hi like to a*k Mr. Roebuck
if lie <Hd not use liia utmost endeavors
In the American conflict to
bring about a war between this coun*
try and the United States [confusion]
Irt order to promote the sin/smolders
rebellion. [Clieerf.]
Mr. Roebuck.?Sir, if yow will aMow
wve, I wall go through that matter com
pfetelj. The American rebellion broke
out, and all I did was?nrvi I had the
sanction of as large a meeting in Shef*
field [cheers] as teer was met together
?all I askad was that we should acknowledge
the Southern State's ns sovereign
and independent States.[*
Hear, hear," mid ch?era.] <' Now I
will tell you distinctly, I will make a
frank breast of it, for jou shall hot mis*
take me My belief la'that the Aineri- 1
run people by and bv will be so numerous
that they will be all poweiful
among mankind. > ;.?"

ought to do. My ohject was to pre.Mill

I raid : " Here is the opporiunitr ; we

an opportunity 1o acknowledge there
States Jpst as America avknow lodged
Hungary when she was in rebellion
against Austria ; we have the sanction
of American example; acknowledge
the existence of those Stales." 'lite

I relieve that mankind would have reeel

afWars did?he turned round and put

Roebuck, what a devili?h good speech
Jrou made at Sheffield." (Cheers and
augbler.J I said; " My ford, I am
greatly obliged to you, and tialteied
for the kind phrase you have used 4
about my speech"?though it- was

Tttr old Rank of North Carolina has been

by attachment took up every dollar the bank
sent to New York with a view to re-establish
its finances. The liabilities of tho bank are
about $.">00,000, mainly notes. Its assets will
pay sixty erfbts on the dollar. Property owned
by this bunk, consisting of rosin fields and
cotton, was seised by Governor Holden when
lie was appointed Provisional governor, and
