more abolition villanv.
We are indebted to the kind attention of a cor
respondent, for some extracts from“ Jhe Child s
First Book in History," in which there is an evi
dent intention to prejudice the minds of our youth
against the institution of Slavery. An appeal is
also made to their sympathy, by plates, represen
ting the slave naked and confined, and the master
in the attitude of applying the whip. These
books, we arc informed, are used in most of our
primary schools. If this be true, it behooves the
Southern people to carefully examine all books,
before placing then! in the hands of their children.
MR. PINCKNEY’S RESOLUTIONS.
The Lynchburg Journal (a Union paper) says
of this most dangerous, outrageous and treach
erous movement:
“It is to be regretted that this resolution was
offered at all, and especially by a Southern man.
Why make an elaborate Report to prove that
Congress has no right to legislate on slavery in
the Slates ? Who has ever affirmed such right 1
Not Arthur Tappan, or Lloyd Garrison, or
Thompson, ever claimed such power. What
need, then, of a long disquisition to disprove it 1
May it not, on the other hand, be productive of
harm, in future time, by producing a doubt wheth
er the jurisdiction of Congress was not, in our
day, a disputable and debatable point 1 And
then, as to the District of Columbia —if the ques.
tion is reduced to one of mere expediency, of
what value will the Report lie to the South'! If it is
oxii inexpedient, may not the time shortly come,
when the members of Congress from the non
slaveholding Stales, will no lunger so regard it 1
If it be settled, that it is not constitutionally
Ton bidden o round, will the Abolitionists be
deterred, by a Congressional Report, from renew
ing their efforts to effect the Abolition of slavery
in the District of Columbia, when a Northern
candidate for the Presidency, no longer wanting,
or finding that he cannot, under any circumstan
ces, get Southern votes, may determine that it is
no longer inexpedient to attempt this robbery 1 ”|
ABOLITION, Ac.
Sincerely desirous as we are, that upon this
subject all personal and party prejudices should
Ire immolated upon the altar of our common I
country, and that the South should act as one I
people, and discuss this momentous question fair
ly and dispassionately, we confess our philosophy
has not lieen a little disturbed, by the unjust aud |
infamous attempts, made by the Union presses of]
this State, to connect the JVullifiers with the Abo
litionists. It shows such an utter disregard for
truth and honesty, that we cannot help sighing
over fallen and degraded human nature.
It will no doubt be remembered, that we were
the first in the State, to warn the South against
the nefarious schemes of the fanatics, and urge
upon the Southern people the necessity of pre
paring to meet a crisis, which we clearly foresaw,
from the signs in the political horizon, was ap
proaching with fearful rapidity. Our course was
then censured by the very Editors, who are now
doing all that a spirit fatally bent on mischief can
do, to distract and divide the South on this ques-
lion. Now, when the subject is forced upon us,
and the public mind is deeply agitated—when
tiro fanatics have gone into Congress, and with a
bold impudence, equalled only by their reckless
ness of consequences, demanded legislation of
• that body, to aid their vicious projects, and the
Nullifiers, with the true friends to Southern rights,
j voto to shut the door of Congress against lhem>
. we find the same editors, regardless of truth, and
for party effect, asserting that the Nullificrs arc
' playing into the hands of the Abolitionists. Were
these efforts confined to those Who are capable
, of any higher incentive than the spoils of victory,
• we should deem the time wasted, that would be
> devoted to their consideration. But when we find
such men as the editor of the Federal Union,
I who we believe to be capable of acting from no
, bier impulses, and whose ability places it in his
power to do his country much service, devoting
his energy, perverting his powers, and sacrificing
f the dearest interests of bis own native South, up
j on the shrine of party, we feci both mortified and
I disgusted—mortified to sec the noblest attributes
. with which God has endowed man, employed in
i so unrighteous a cause—and disgusted at the de
grading efforts to make a party question, where
unanimity and concert only, can save the South.
Acts, speak louder than words, and since this
[ question has been forced upon us, we ask, when,
1 or where has there been any sympathy manifested
between the Nullificrs and the Abolitionists'!
, When, and on what occasion, have they voted
, together l Now it is a fact beyond contradiction,
that the Abolitionists ate the partizans of Mr.
| Van Buren ; and equally evident that there must
be some points of sympathy between them ; aird
, if it can bo made to appear that the Nulliliers
have enlisted under his banner, we admit that it
docs subject them to tiro suspicion of preferring
the success of party to the triumph of principle.
Wo arc told by Mr. Cotiibkht, that the “Nulli
fiers have assumed new positions, in which the
South cannot unite.” Now let us enquire what
those “ new positions ” ate 1 They are simply
these: They contend for their'rights under the
Constitution, and deny the right of Congress to
interfere with slavery in any manner whatever—
assert that it has no authority to dispose of private

who framed the Constitution. And this is what
we are told by the editor of a Van Buren press,
the South cannot unite upon. We arc slow to
believe that the people of Georgia will endorse
the assertion by their acts, and surrender all that
is elevated in character, and sacred and valuable
in the Constitution, to men or parly. A tremen
dous crisis is before us. We are standing upon
the verge of an awful precipice, where anarchy
and bloodshed await us—contending against dcs.

ti ism on the other. Time will disclose the resuft
And God grant, that those who have joined with
our enemies for party purposes, may never have
it to exclaim—had I served my country as I have
served my party, I should not now be the victim of

PROM THE VOLUNTEERS.
Celebration of the Birth-day of Washington,
by the Richmond Blues, at
Fort Duane, Florida, Feb. 23d. 1836.
Early in the morning, a meeting of the corps
was held, and on motion of Scrj. W. W. Mann,
Lieut. Wilson was chosen Chairman, and Pri
vate W. T. Thompson appointed Secretary.
The meeting being thus organized, Lieut. Mann
moved the appointment of a Committee of three,
to select a suitable person as Orator of the day—
and, also, another Committee of three, to make
all necessary arrangements for the celebration.
The Chairman appointed Serj. W. W. Mann,
and Privates Tuos. W. Miller, and W. T.
Thompson, as members of the first, and Privates
W. F. Pemberton, S. B. Groves, and Foster
Blodoet, to compose the second committee; and
the meeting then adjourned.
As soon as it could bo procured, a Liberty
Pole was erected, and a handsome Star Spangled
Banner, (made by several of the members, at the
request of the committee, and composed of pocket
handkerchiefs, strips of red cassimcrc, Ac.) was
raised amid the cheers of the members of the
corps, and floated gracefully in the breeze during
the remainder of the day, Invitations were ex
tended to Gen. Clinch, and all the officers with
their companies now at this post, which were ac
cepted by all who were not prevented from atten
ding by the duties of the day. At 12 o’clock, n
procession was formed in front of the General’s
quarters, under the command of Capt. Robert.
sox, as Marshal of the day, which moved to the
place appointed for the delivery of the Oration,
(the parade ground of the Blues) in the following
order:—l, Richmond Blues.—3, Mclntosh Vol
unteers.—3, Two companies of U. S. Troops.—
4, Two Indian Chiefs, (one a brother of Charley
O’Malhla, and the other his nephew, who appea
red highly pleased at this distinction) —5, Gen.
Clinch and Staff.—6,_officers of the U. S. Army.
7, Officers of Volunteer Corps.—B, Orator of
the day.—9, Committee of Anangcmcnts. When
I the procession reached the proper place, Lieut.
1 Starnes mounted the stage erected for the pur
■ pose on a piece of Artillery, and delivered a very
| spirited and eloquent Oration, which was warm
ly applauded by those who listened to it; and it
j certainly was highly creditable to its author, who
I had received the appointment but four hours pre
vious to its delivery. Alter its delivery, the pro
cession returned to the place w here it was formed,
and was dismissed.
Between three and four o’clock, the company
with a number of Officers as invited guests, par
took of a good Camp Dinner, (the best that could
be served up) after which a number of Toasts
were drank, and among them the following:

Extract of n letter dated
Fort Duane, March Ist, 1836.
On the 27th ult. an express arrived at this post
from Picolata, with information of Ucn. Scott’s
arrival, anjj also, with orders from the General to
various officers, stationed hero. By the express, 1
also learned, that the four Voluntcci corps from
Georgia, had left Picolata on the 15th, on their
match to this place, under the command of Maj.
Mark A. Cooper. Gen. Scott in his advices,
stated that he expected to be at Fort Drane on
the fid instant, and would probably commence
the campaign as early as the 10th. By this ex
press, letters were received from Augusta as late
as the 19th Feb.
Early yesterday morning an express reached
here from Gen. Gaines, under an escort of 20
men, commanded by Lieut. McDeiimot of the
Louisiana Volunteers, and by frequent inquiries I
have learned the following particulars respecting
i the purport of it, and in the truth of the stale
: ments you may place the utmost confidence: —
Gen. Gaines’ letter was dated on the 28lh Fob. at
Camp Izzurd, two miles west of Gen. Clinch’s
Battle Ground, in which letter he informed Gen.
C. that he was under the impression that the
principal force of the hostile Seiniuoles, with
their negroes and vassals, were then in the vicini
ty of his encampment. On the evening of tbc
27th, while Gen. G. was reconnoitering the
Withlacoochcc river. Sot 10 miles from the
place were his letter is dated, having with him
only a portion of his force, acting as an Advance
Guard, he was fired upon, from the opposite side
of the river, by a body of Indians, which was j
kept up in a spirited manner, accompanied with
the War-whoop, for half an hour—the fire was
returned by Gen. G’s force, with what effect it is
not known. During this skirmish, one man was
killed, and five wounded. From the difficulty of
procuring materials fur building bridges, flats, Ac.
and the river net being fordable, Gen. OainEs
was unable to cross at that place; and the next
morning he continued his examination down the
river, and at the place where Gen. Clinch fought,
was again met by the Indians, with a much lar
ger force than before, and another skirmish en
sued, during which, Gen. G. had, as before, one
man killed, and five wounded; which makes
his 1055.,2 killer], and 10 wounded. The names
of the killed arc—Bouti-ur., and Valentine
Beek, both of the Louisiana Volunteers. The
wounded consisted of both Volunteers and Reg
ulars—among whom was Lieut. Izzaiib, com
manding the Dragoons, and who is supposed to
be mortally wounded, and Captains Handers and
Armstrong. Capt. S. I understand, had the
immediate charge of the body of friendly Indians,
attached to Gen. G’s fores. Gen. Gaines believes
the Indian women and children, arc placed in a
large Cyprus Swamp, within a few miles from
his encampment; and doubts not, that within the
| space ol 10 days, having the co-operation of Gen.
Clinch, (which lit very earnestly solicits, with
all the forces under his command) with a force
equal to his own, he could put an end to the war.
i Gen. G. would occupy the time until lie receives
Gim. C’s answer, in building boats, and making
all noccs.nry preparations for crossing the river.
Immediately after the receipt of the above infor
mation, Gen. Clinch communicated it by ex
press to Gen. Scott; and, in the evening, the es
j cort returned to Gen. Gaines, with a piece of
| Artillery, provisions, Ac. which Gen. G. had re
! quested might be sent to him.
Another express reached this post this mor
ning from Gen. Gaines, informing the comman
der, that the Indians had crossed the river and
made an attack upon him, in his intrenchmcnta,
at three different points, but, after sonic sharp !
fighting, the Indians were repulsed, with a loss to |
Gen. G. of one Sergeant of the Regulars killed— j
and one officer and 12 privates wounded—of the I
Volunteers, one officer, and 20 privates wounded. |
Gen. G. supposes the force of the Indians about I
him to be 1500, and does not deem it advisable to
leave hi* entrenchment* until aid is afforded him,
which he again solicits of Ocn. CLtNeii, immedi
ately. Gen. G. was slightly wounded by a spent |
ball, which slruc him on the chin.
Wednesday, March 2d.
The express which left here for Gen. Gaines
the evening before last, was recalled, on account
of tlio danger attending its journey to the Gamp.
It was overtaken within 8 miles of Gen. O. and ar
rived here this morning at 3 o’clock. The officer
who commanded the c cort, stales that it was ut-
i® ter madness to attempt to reach Gen. Gaines,
and though determined to obey orders, had not
e the slightest expectation of reaching him alive.
Last evening, orders were issued to the Blues,
i. through Capt. R. to bo ready to march at a mo
il ments warning—and we arc now expecting or
s dels to join Gen. Gaines. Ido not know how
soon wo shall march, nor can I give any infor
s mation respecting it. Gen Scott has not yet
y arrived, An riqsress reached here from Picolata
this morning, tile purport of which, I am unable
- to ascertain. This will probably bo the last you
1 will hear from me for some time. I hope wc
I, shall conclude the war iii the course of throe
weeks, and then march home again, to enjoy the
e society of the dear friends “we left behind us.”
