The editor of the Charlotte Bulletin, (a South Carolinian,) has openly declared that North Carolina should secede; he is for immediate, open, bold secession. This is the first paper of any respectability or influence that has taken this position in North Carolina, and we now call upon the people of the State to repudiate the sentiment.
