Governor Stanly Reurna from Beaufort—A Fanationt Alolitiontst Rebuked by @ Contraband—Rumored Re- turn of Colyer and Helper—Some of Their Doingt— Governor Stanty’s Policy Likely te be Sustained by the President, dbe., dle. Governor Stanly returned on Tuesday from his visit to Beaufort. During his etay there the citizens called on him in great numbers, and from their sentiments he {eels highly gratified with the progress of the Union cause in Cartaret county. He leaves here in a few days to visit Washington, where the citizens have invited him, end where @ large Union meeting is to beheld on Tuesday next. Since the recent outburst of the abolitionists at the course of Governor Stanly, several interesting facts have come to light, A sergeant in one of the Massachu- bolitioniem, spiritualism jogmas and doctrines, which fied their advocate and mouthpiece in tho New York Zribune, and withal the butt and laughing stock of his comrades, is @ regular atttendant at the woekly religious exercises of the slaves of this piace, On Sunday, a week ago, was present, aS usual, aud at the conclucton of a prayer, took advantage of the opportunity to deliver himselt of @ harany in whieh he vituperated st Governor ‘Stanly, called on the slaves to staud up for their rights.

We know that they only awsit the tine when their State will be freed frm the thraldom of Jeff. avis? minions to give her back to the Union, and shall we dampen their re- turning loyaity? Nothing, however, is more contemptible than t of thesesame abolition journals to drag Gen. into this quarrel between themselves and Govervor Stanly, Since the advent of the lattwr, the administra- tion of affairs bas divided into two channels, General Buruside, with lis trusty troops and bayonets, will wage war ax: t armed disloyalty; but the direction of civil affairs, in accordance with the established rules of law and order, will pertain more particularly to Governor Stanly. And so let these journais inveigh against the sound, conservative policy which dir, Stanly has deemed it his duty to pursue, Theefiect will be highly beveficial, in showing to the people of North Carolina that tho man who Is sent toassume the guidance of their affairs is no friene with the abolitionists, their enemies, Union Prisoners in Salisbury, N.C. ‘Through the kindness of Lieutenant Frauk E.
