It is a rotnafkable foot that tho Sou thern friend* of Douglas'. construotion of tho Ifunsas Bill olid .the Cincinnati Platform haVo urged blit, one reason why tho Saiith should not repudiate a heresy admitted by nearly every one to bo worse than the Wilmot Proviso.*— They use no arguments to prove thpt he is right and the South wrong; on tho contrary they acknowledge that Squatter Sovereignty is unconstitution al and we aro entitled to Congressional protection, but contond that wo ought not todonounee tho one, or demand tho other.) Mr. Steplions and Governor Jolinson havo told the Southern people, In their letters to tho Maoon Committee, that although a Territorial, Legislature. has no power to interfere'with tho institu tion of slavery In any way, except to pass laws for Its protection, and that 'the Supremo Court havo also decided that it is the duty of Congress to pro tect tho slave-hpldor in his rights, still, because the South, or rather the South ern Democracy, .have agreed to tho doe- trine of nondniervenlionwo cannot in good faith insist upon a recognition of these rights. Now lot us see whether tho South or even tho Southern Domooratio voters consented to any such agreement.— When, where and by whom was the agreement made7 First, in Congress, by Sou thorn members and Northern Democrats when tho Kansas-Ncbraska BUI was passed, second, at Cincinnati," by all the dele gates from every seotion, when the plat* form was adopted ♦, and Anally, it was ratified at tho polls by the people of the South when Mr. Buohanqn was elected. Wo do notpfatond to dispute that souie such understanding oxisted in Congress and at Cincinnati on the occasions re ferred to. We know that politicians aro capable of any sort of “bargain and sale,” provided tho cqtuidcration is a volu ble one. But we do 'deny most emphatically that the South, or even Southern dem ocratic voters ratified tho bargain in any shape or form} and so far from Mr. Bqchanan’s election, or the election of Congressmen is concornod, it was con sidered at the time by those who voted for them, as a direct and decisive repu diation of Squatter Sovereignty. To non-intervention tho South did not ob- loot j but it was ncm-intorvcniion by n Territorial Legislature, as woll ns by Congress. It was not tho iioti-lntervcn lion now contended for, tint Congress should resign all its powers of protect ing tho owner of property hi tho Ter ritories, and loavo 1dm to tho tondor mercies of Squatters, of foreigners just landed Upon our shores, bearing with them all their bitter prejudices against his rights, and of freetoil emissaries armed with Sharp's rifles and “breath ing out thveatenings and slaughter” dgalnst the slaveholder. This was not the nou-intervention ; but it was, that Congress should not interfere to pro hibit or establish slavery in the Territo ries. . We now appeal to Urn memory of every man who heard a Democratic speech or read a Democratic paper to boar us out in tho following facts. The Opposition brought the charge of Squat ter Sovereignty against the Kansas bill and the Cincinnati platform. The ac cusation was indignantly repelled.« All the powers of eloquence and the subtle ties of ingenuity were brought into requisition to prove that thiB“detestible heresy” was not only not in those in struments, but that tho author of the pno and the candidate placed upon the other did not so oonstruo them. The speeches of Mr. Douglas and the letter of acceptance of Mr. Buchanan wore .largely quoted from to establish their innocouce and clear tho skirts of the Democracy of this freesoil stain. Wo are willing to leave it to Douglas Demo crats to deoido whether or hot. we are stating the truth, and wo ask them if ever they heard at that time one word about any agreement to turn this whole question over to tho Territorial Legisla tures j if ono word was said about Nor thern and Southern Democrats agree ing to two constructions, one for the North and the other for the South, except to deny it. If any such agreement was made by the leaders of the party, they as agents of the people should have told them so before they , asked them to ratify it. . But instead of that they kept this clause in tho dark; yes, they practiced a worse deception still, they denied the existence of suah a clause, and the ma jority of tho Sou thorn people belloved them, and elected*their candidate. But tho fraud has como to light; tho South ern people have discovered that they have been most shamefully,duped, and have risen almost as one man to repu diate the dangerous heresy.

Wright, of Jefferson, has written a long and able letter to Senator Evans of Stewart county. Wo would like to publish‘it entlto ; but its length forbids. It contains a clear, cor rect and full history of Squatter Sov ereignty and of tho notion of the Demo* oratio and Opposition parties in rela tion to It. In answer to tho question “what policy, consistent with our de clared opinions upon the slavery ques tion, is tho best under all tho circum stances to bo pursued by our party 7” ho gives tho following as his opinion; He is not disposed, at present, to acquiesce in the ratification of the nomination of Boll and Ererott; it opposed to the “prqject” of calling a Convention to nominate electors for Houston and Everett} is in favor of waiting for the action of tho Richmond Convention ; thinks with Hunter, Cobb or Dickinson, ns its nominoo, we could dofeat Lincoln in Pennsylvania, Now York* New Jor- soy and Connecticut} but should the Richmond Convention bo a failure, “then fall back in the last resort upon tho Constitutional Union nominee John Bell of Tcnnossee,” whom ho bcliovcs to bo “an able, conservative and relia ble statesman.” Naim Fuuit Tubes.—A singular fact, and ono worthy of being recorded, was mentioned to us a few days since by Mr. Alexander Duke, of Albermarle.— lie suited that whilst on a visit to a neighbor, his uttention was called to a largo pencil orchard, every troo of which was totally destroyed by the ravages of tho worm with tho exception of three, and tlwso wore tho most thrifty and flourishing poach trees ho over saw. The only Cause of-tholr superiority known to liis host, was an experiment made in consequence' of observing that those parts of worm-entomtimbordnto which nulls had been driven wero generally sound. When his troos were about a year old, ho drove a tonponhy nail through the body, as near tho ground ns possible; whilst the bnlnnce of his orchard had gradually failed, and finally yielded entirely to tho ravages of tho worms, these three trees, selected ht random, treated precisely in the same manner with the excontion of the nail ing, had always been healthy, famish ing him at the very period with the rrentest profusion of the most luscious mit. It is supposed that tho suit of iron afforded by the nails is offensive to the worm, while it is harmless, perhaps oven bonofiuini, to the troe. - A chemical writer on the subject, says: '.The oxydution or rusting of the iron provo toe sevore a dose for the delicate palate of intruding insects.” Tho writer rocommends driving half a dozon nails into tho trunk. Several experiments of tho kind have resulted succossYully. Kextcc'kv Papers Bolting Douglas in Advance.—“The Princeton (Ky.) Bulletin.a Democratic paper, says: Tho views of Mr. Douglas upon tho question of slavery in tho Territories do not coincide with ours, and what wo believe to bo the rights of the South, and con sequently wo most emphatically declare that wo could not and would not sup port him for the Presidency.” The oditor of the Paducah (Ky.) Herald, another Democratic ipapef, says: “We can answer for ourself, that wo shall ; not support! Douglas, nor join the central clique, nor anything in sup port of Squatter Sovereignty, but wo shall Act with the Southern Democracy, and vote with thorn to the end.” jQrThe Washington correspondent of the Charleston Cburitr, Uhdehdato of of the 11th inst.,says: Some of the members of tho Baltimore Convention havo arrived. Tho Douglas men are coming in from all quarters, and appear to be inflamed with enthu siasm and zeal in liis behalf. Any one who had indulged the hope that tho Baltimore Convention would harmo nize eithor upon a platform of prlncl- ( >les or of a nomination should abandon t now. Nothing is more certain Chan the foot that the Douglas men come prepared and resolved to repudiate ev en the Tennessee resolutions, which the recent Southern State Conventions havo also repudiated.

Wo are here to vindi cate the Constitution, and assert our rights, which we had hoped to secure at Charleston, but were ovorpowered by numbers, and compelled to seek rodross in oursolvcs. We had honcc) to fiud overy thing harmonious at tho Charles ton Convention, but .this hope was falla cious, owing to the selfishness there displayed, and no alternative was left, but to do as we have done. Our cou- duct has been approved by our constitu ents, and we are now met here to assert thoso rights that wero not conceded to us at Charleston. We meet In no fac tious spirit, as has beon insinuated, but to vindicate our Constitutional rights. Ours is a singular condition. Wo huve peculiar Southern ^institutions, We must goon, as wo have commenced, resolved to maintain our rights to. the uttermost. Wo must unfurl our banner of Union, inscribed with the Constitu tion and our rights, as tho only way that we can maintain theso rights. It has been proposed that we shall not act definitely hero—that wo shall neither approve nor eondemn * the course of our opponents; but whatever we do, must bu douo with the single determination to maintain our preroga tives. That serpent, Squatter Sover eignty, has been stinging us, and for twenty*five years has been trying to settle tho disputes about Slavery, and in all that period lias mado.no progress. Things ore worse now than ever before, qnd wo can forbear no longer. I am willing to play my part, ana take all tho consequences. I havo no purpose to dissolvo tho Union, My sympathies aro with tho Democratic Party.

I am rusty, gentlomon, in Parliamen tary rules, but will endeavor to do my duty, and hope that our deliberations will result for the ultimate good of the whole country. Gov. Lubbock, the retiring Presidont, made a brief address of thanks. The rules of the Cincinnati Conven tion of 1856, wero adopted for tho gov ernment of this Convention. Tho Committeoon Credentials report* ed that they had no jurisdiction over the persons asking for Boats in the Con vention from Now York titate. They claimed not to be regular Delegates.— Tho Committee suggested that the Coh- vention extend to them the courtesy of an invitation to seats on the floor us spectators. This wus agreed to. Their credentials give them authority as the representatives of a portion of tho De mocracy of New York. Theso were first laid ou the table, and then with drawn and formally returned tc them. A Committee of one Delegate from each State, to prepare business for the Convention, was proposed, when, Mr. Hatch, of Louisiana, said that he oould supercede tho neoossityof such a Com mittee and offered tho following resolu tions: llcsolved, That as the Delegations from all the States represented * in this Convention are’ assembled upon tho basis of the Platform, reeommondod by a minority of the States at Charleston, we deem it unnecessary to take any further action upon that subject at tho present time. Resolved, That when .this Convention adjourn it adjourn to meetin Richmond on Thursday, the 21st of Juno, provided that tho President of this Convention may call it together at an earlior or later date, if it bo deemed necessary. Some amendments, of un unimpor tant character, wero offered to tho above resolutions, and discussed for a short time by several of the mem bers, but both were finally adopted. On motion, the Convention adjoiirned accordingly, after a session of one hour and three-quarters. Whilst this motion for an adjourn ment was ponding, Mr. Baldwin, of New York, arose and commenced a ro- frnotory speech, but was called to order. The final adjournment then took place, leaving him standing, with opon mouth and speech undelivered. There wore a few ladies in attend ance, and a fair number of spectators iti the galleries. The best order and good feeling prevailed. There wero no speeches made except very brief re marks upon the business of tho Con vention. Tho objoct was to koop tho ultimate policy of tho Delegations in reserve until a future occasion, if any occur, to require a full development, and the policyof the Southern States assembled hero. It is understood that all tho Delega tions except thoso from South Carolina and Florida, will go to Baltimore, and claim the right of admission thore. A Panama Beamy. SayE a correspondent writing from Panama: "Sorao of tho Wofaofi ttto remarkably handsome and gracefal. About ninp o elook in tho morning, when, tho rays of the sun wore getting to be powerfai, I dropped into a houso, which was visi ble through the vorduro, to got a cup of. cold water. The heads of the family had no doubt gone into the forests to pick fruits, for no one was at homo but a yoUfig Indian maiden, who started Up like a startled fawn at my appopranoo, uml might have fled, if I bad not beep stationed in the doorway. Forming my • hand into tho shape of a- drinking-cup, and elovatlng it to my mouth, I made known my wants. 8ho was immediate ly re-assured, and lod the way to a shady grotto, in the rear of tho dwelling, where a crystal mountain-spring burst forth from the gifted rook, while I fol lowed, in speechless admiration of tho vision of loveliness whioh floated bo- foro me. She was attired in a loose drops of the purest white, »down which her luxuriant hair, platted in broad, flat plslti, hung to an almost iuoredible length. Her complexion was a soft- tinted olivo—a good, rich color, but yet so delicate withal that the slightest emotion was sufficient to-sond the crim son to her ebooks. Each rounded arm was enolosed by a curiously shaped and oostly bracelet, and in her ears wero strangely-fashioned pendants, some- whatln tho form of a orescent. Her forehead was exquisitely chiseled, and her features almost Greeoian in their contour. But, how shall I ever describe those glorious, dreamy eyes, their fath omless depths of liquid blue, or those long, drooping lashes, whioh ever and anon came softly down, like silken cur tains. In a picture gallery on Fourth street, Cincinnati, is a tolerably fair represen tation of a Southern Indian woman, in the painting of ''Cortes Burning his Fleet.” The maidens in Powell's paint ing of “De Soto Discovering the Missis sippi,” are still hotter, but both fall far short of portraying tho. union of evory quality of grocq nnd beauty whioh stood in stainless purity before mo. Could an artist-put upon canvass tho picture there presented, the shady dell, tropi cal fruits and flowers, the limpid spring, and mossy rooks, the rosy skies ana pur ple mountain peaks, that sweet sad lace and faultless form, ho might then lay down his penoll and live upon his fame forever. As she stepped upon the slippery rook, with a quaintly fashioned gourd, to dip up tho clear water, thore was disclosed a foot whoso polished out lines had novor beon sullied by tho shoe of civilization, and which hor native in* nocmce had novor boon taught to hide, I could havo lingered long in that ro mantic) glen, but time would only per mit me to thank my fair benefactress by all the signs and gestures at my com mand, which wore received with such extraordinary modesty that I stood abashed at my rudeness. If your cor respondent had yielded to tho snmo in stinctive impulse which loads tho wor shipper of art to bow before the divine productions of Phidias or Angelo, and had thrown himself at those fair feet In an act of adoration, he would undoub tedly have made a fool of himself, and therefore wisely refrained. nicks, the Pirntet Hicks, tho murderer of tho Watts boys nnd Captain Burr, on a sloop off Sandy Hook, has made a confession.— From his disclosures as to this tragedy and the hints he drops of participation in other bloody atroodios on sea and land, there can be no doubt that ho is a fulsn of the first magnitude. We have boon accustomed of Into years to regard such sea monsters like (licks asoxUting chiefly in tho realms of romantic fiction but a perusal of “his own report against himsolf,” and what is being hourly de veloped about him and others of his kind, must startle tho public from this 'delusion .J This man soems to havo beon engaged in deeds of blood all his life. Some days ago tho publication of certain dog* grel verses dictated by Hicks loti to the belief that he was an actor in a sangui nary piracy on the “Saladina,” nnd this belief was confirmed by tho foots. A gentleman of Now York who was in 1844 attached to tho United States naval sorvice, and who was in that yoor in commission on board a ship on tho Pa cific station, visited Hicks with a view to identify him as the Johnson engaged In the Saladina affair. This gentleman at oneo recognized the prisoner as the man who had boen for some years a “beach-comber” or erulsoron the Span ish Main, who had boen several timiA tried tor offences at Callao, and the identical Johnson who engaged in the brutal murder of Captain McKonsie S id his mate on the Saladina. In this, icks was under tho leadership of a broth or sea-robber named Fielding* who subsequently took command of the ves sel, but Hioksand tho piratical crew be coming tired of him, also, they held a counsel about putting him to death and in his own presence too, and then in cold blood threw him overboard.— There will bo no sympathy expressed at the announcement that such, a repro bate is to be executed dri tho 13 th of Ju ly.—Phila.
