Am oug the farmers in North Carolina there is much unrert manifested in regard to the present mortgage system, and it seems its doom is onlv a matter of time. It is fast losing favor, and m^ny farmers are declaring war upon it, saying they will suffer for many necessaries of life before they will mortgage their crops. The negro exolus from North O'aroliua. it U said, will assume large proportions after the holidays. I'lie grain crop failure down in the i eastern portion of the Slate leaves 1 no inducements for the farmers to ofT-.-r them to remain. They are now leaving the farms in droves and going t-> the nearest railway stations, wtiero they wait iO' lraimgmuuij . agents to corae and carry them anywhere on any terras.
