To Miilocato Vidaurre, \v is to suffocate tlio ad
vocate of Ids country. It was a blow which
could not ho struck without exasperating his
innumerable friends. Another method more
fiir was invented to remove mo from Peru.—
Tills was to expatriate mo with the name r.f
plenipotentiary to Colombia. Senor Pando
was to repair to Panama, and remain associat
ed with Senor Tudeln, sent by liis excellency
the liberator.
"These projects vanished, on account of tho
precipitation with u'uich our treaties were con
cluded. The plenipotentiaries of Mexico and
Guatemala knew the intentions of tho repre
sentatives of Colombia; tliey know them so
well that they would not consent that there
should lie a president in the Congress; from
fear that if it should chance to lie either Senor
Gual or Briseno, they might acquire undue in-
lluenco in their deliberations. The scruple
was trifl'ng, but it proves with what circum
spection they proceeded during the most toni-
blo crisis of America.
“The greatest difficulties awa'ted mo. I ar
rived in Guayaquil and must necessarily find
myself with II is Excellency. A friend in his
suite discovered to me that it was intended to
prevent my return to Peru. All tho-patriots
of Guayaquil feared it. IIow much this infer-
ni itirfO>availed me! I exposed some of the de
fects of tho constitution which Bolivar wished
should be universal, hut at the same time ex
pressed myself devoted to his wishes. M-tclii-
avel! 31 ichiavrl! although thou Inst not tanglii
any oilier doctrine tii in ili.it of knowing liow to
use ilie qualities of the lion and the fox oppor
tunely, tliuii tiuglitnst to he considered as tlie
greatest politician of die age! The Secretary
Perez came to see me: lie said to me—“Your
Interests must he inseparable) from those of the
Liberator. Be assured that Don Simon will
return to Pent, either to command liv llic will
of tho people, or to conquer them.” Almost
did I lose at that time mv studied serenity. I
dissembled, and dissembled so successfully, that
tho. Liberator was tho most earnest that I
should return to Lima.
“On my way to Lima, from Paha, it was ap
parent every where that force, seduction and
promises had effected the then slate of things.
Tho resolution of the legislative body; the ex
patriation trf the incomparable Lmn with ili.tt
of all the generals and officers of Buenos Av-
res and Chili; ilie introduction of spies at the
tables and into the nto<t private of houses; hor
rid executions to terrify a people extremely
docile; tho appointment of fictions partisans
to many important offices; above ull, tlio mili
tary force which lie left as in a conquered
country, to lie miintuine I by tlio suffering peo
ple. Nothing of all this dismayed me; the
moment I arrived in J>ina, I spread mv libe
ral ideas. I spread them in such a manner,
that on the third day Don Tomas Hures wrote
to ills excellency, telling him th it at all events
I must in some way be removed from Peru. I
have ilie information from his own cabinet: in
two hours it had been communicated to mo
by three different iiidividu ils.
“In the mean time, tlio incidents multiply a-
rotmd me every moment. I am solicited to
have the Supreme Court give its opinion on
tho contemptible instrument purporting to be
tbs xv-11 ot the people. 1 do not pretend to
eulogize these proceedings, for your excellency
must have them before you. But I will say
that in tlio capital the electors were surround
ed bv guards; at^ the door of the hull w is a
Saudi no named Frevria, who insulted the few
that offered some objections. If this was in
Lima, in tho oilier departments the acts of vi
olence were bnreficed. To prove this, I have
data \eiy important mid circumstantial. I
know it. Ii was uti atrocious and dreadful
violence! ^ People, how long will you bo
timid!—What do you imagine cloath is? I op
pose an immature nnd illegal instrument; I
cm rent that a Congress may ho convoked,
which shall cxamino bu'h constitutions. All
mv companions in the Supreme Court are of
the same opinion, but 1 alone place my signa
ture to it, taking the consequences upon myself.
Tlio municipal authorities uro appealed to for
their opinion. They swore to this new con
stitution with the same pleasure nnd freedom
ns Ferdinand 7th swmc to that of the Spaniards.
I saved my conscience. The oatli said: “do
you stvear to the charter wlfeh the nation has
given?" As tho nation had not given it, there
was nothing ou which the oath could be bind
ing.
“Great progress had already been made in
the project for the union of the three republics
of Bolivia, Peru and Colombia, as a confede
ration, with a capital destined for the perpetual
and inviolable chief of all of them. If Colom
bia had not declared herself opposed to this
project, we should have been on the brink of
pol.tical doath- Already those who opposed
were calledfactious, anarchists, turbulent; I
was considered as the prototype of them, and
doubtless should have been at least exiled, if
tho-grand marshal Santa Cruz had not been
the prosidcut of tlio donned of Government.
Using principles of policy, he formed weapons
of the very thing that was adverse. He ha
rangued tho people; and declared to them that
extraordinary powers wore now at an end.—
liow much was gained by this! I labored that
the new political code be observed, and that
there might exist some law to control tho pub
lic functionaries.
“I hoped that providcnco would open the
way, and that justice might triumph very soon.
*I desired nothing; 1 wished for nothing; I had
nothing to expect. . I studied all public men.
I meditated on iheir hearts and deepest senti
ments, and I found that the grand marshal
Santa Cruz was a moderate, mild, generous
affable young warrior, and above all, that he
was a true Peruvian.
“Such were my thoughts wlion the troops of
people enjoy a. perfect liberty, and only la
ment that adverse fate should deprive them of
the hero in whom they placed their confidence,
to whom they owe their existence, whose name
they will repeat with tears. The council ol
government continues, Setters Ileres and Pan-
do having resigned, and Senor Salazar and my
self taken their places. The contents of this
letter express the feelings of the Peruvians, as
also mine, to prove to your excellency that I
am your friend.
MANUEL VIDAURRE.”
Tito pamphlet from which the preceding
document is translated, closes with the follow
ing eloquent appeal to the republicans of
South America:
“When ill's essay was in the press, the pub
lic papers of Colombia from which wo have
extracted tho document which we insert, ar
rived in this capital, and tlio mail which
brought it, brought also a letter front General
Bolivar to one aif his friends in this place, in
which he says: ‘That lie continued laboring
for tho great confederation, to bo composed
of the three republics, Colombia, Peru and
Bolivia: he affirms therein that even General.
Santander will use his influence to realize this
plan: that Colombia will bo divided into three
states, Lower Pern into two, nnd Upper Peru
will enter as a single state, all with a president
for I fe; and the other articles which are found
in the celebrated treaty, wliirli Ortis Zavnilos
signed in Chttqiiisaca, the ]5lh of the same
month In which his excellency wrote this from
Bogota.’
“Americans! reflect on tho private views of
lem who speaks so much in public of modera
tion and disin erestcdness. You, unfortunate
people of Peru, who h ivn increased your mi
sery, in order to present, even in,deserts, splen
did banquets to tltoso who never thought of
your happiness; bear in tn’iid that if you do
nut oppose a firm resistance, you w ll continue
to he. the subjects of a military government, and
will have no other security but the sword: re
member that tf tyrants make slaves, slaves also
make tyrants: And von, Colombia, great and
generous nation; you who have honored this
continent with your existence, who have ob
tained independence at so dear a price; you
who were the example and admiration of all
the nations of the earth; who constituted the
delight of the freemen of the world; who were
the consolation of humanity; you for whose
glory so many of your illustrious sons have sa
crificed themselves; you who wore the hope of
good moil. Will you ho now the sport of a
few ambitious men; the contempt of nations
and tho disgrace of the world? Shull the brave
Colombians who, from the Oronoco to Potosi,
formed a grovo of laurels, blast their glories by
permitting their national code to bo trampled
down, and that there should bo in their coun
try no security but the word of a man? Will
they see with indifference, instead of the na
tional representation, a tremendous power
which divides and annihilates every thiug,
without any other olijert than the aggrand
izement of ti very few? No! wo do not expect
to see it; the immortal Golombian Francisco
do Paula Santander exists still. The Gener
als Berm.tiles and Soulilet; the minister Cas
tillo, Rostrepo and Revenga; the senator So
to, and many others—they will prove that if
there is ambition in Colombia, there are also
citizens who will not invoke the holy and sacred
name of liberty in vain. Yes, in this we con
fide, and there is not ono of us who at the same
timo that we breathe the most ardent prayers
for the felicity of America, does not desire to
mako even tho last sacrifice in order that un
fortunate Colombia may not lose its liberty and
glory.”

Remarks on Cotton Bagging ami Cordage, and the

mit me, through your piper, to address a few
remarks to our .brethren of tho sou It and west,

About a year ago, at the suggestion of a
planter, a piece of bagging, wholly of cotton,
the butcher pens, in the suburbs of tho town,
where a great number of our good citizens at
tended, aiding with their cheers and canes, this
singular combat.
First Act. The quondam hairdresser, on
seeing tlie multitude of h>s customers, opened
his eyes, pricked his ears,'and looked surpris
ed. The enemy curled their tails, ra ; sed their
upper |h s, and showed their teeth. Bruin, ap
peaied more astonished, raised himself on h !
h>nd levs and extended a paw, as if to welcome
his gur-s’s. Tho kennel stood their ground,
bristled ur>, and growled. The barber tlierc-
unon, getting impatient, Snapped h*s exes, as
much ns »o sav, “If you want to be shaved,
come on!” One of the holder do' T S at ties
walked up cautiously, and smell at him. The

DOMESTIC MANUFACTURES,
COTTON BLANKET* AND COTTON DENIMS.
A larg* meeting was held at N itchez, M *-
sissippi, towards the latter end of July last, for
the purpose of taking into consideration tho
most efficient moans to encourage domestic
manufactures, especially of cotton. The as
semblage was numerous, confined to no politi
cal sect or class of inhabitants, but comprised
the most intelligent, influential and woalthy
portion of the county. Tliey agreed, by re
solution, to prefer American manufactures, if
as good and cheap as foreign, to promote the
fabrication of bagging and cordage from cot
ton, &c. and recommended to tho inhabitants
of the other counties tlie adoption of similar
measures. Tlio .4rie/ says—
We are authorized to state, that a premium
°.f fifty dollars will ho paid for tho best piece
of bagging, manufactured from cotton, to con
tain not less than fifty yards, to bo forty-two
and a half inches wide, equal in texture and
strength to Scotch bagging, and to xveigh not
less than one and a quarter pounds per yard.
A premium of twenty-five dollars for the
best pair ot blankets, manufactured from cot
ton, to be equal in size to tho largest three and
a half point English blankets, usually called
Macinaw blankets, and not to weigh less than
five pounds.
A premium of twenty-five dollars for the
best piece of denims, manufactured from cot
ton, to contain not less than twenty-five yards,
to be one and one eighth yards wide, twilled,
stout and thick, and to bo deemed sufficiently
warm for clothing slaves in the winter.
The premiums to bo awarded on the 1st day
of December, by Francis Surget, James Green-
ton, and John E. Gillespie, of this county, or
any txvo of them. The articles to be deposit
ed in tho store of Messrs. Postlethwaite and
Babbit, in this city, .[Natchez] who aro autho
rized to pay the premiums.
We xyill observe that there may bo speci
mens which wijl not be entitled to a premium,
that wo have no doubt can be sold hero to
tho advantago of th* manufacturers.
and tho specimen was much approved by some
public spirited gentlemen at Huntsv.llc, who
were induced to advertise for a contract for
twenty-five thousand yards, to be m >de of that
in iterial. The enlightened and patriotic citi
zens of Adams coun.y, Mississippi, from the
s inio laudable motives, have rccoudy turned
their attention to this highly important subject,
andhivo actually contracted'with Mr, Rapp
for twenty thousand yards of that article, of
tho usual bread'll, at twcnty-.hieo cents per
yard. They have also offered very liberal
premiums for the best spec.moils of cotton
cordage, cotton bagging, blankets and negro
clothing. In ihese meritorious efforts, we
fondly hope they will he immediately imitated
by nil the slave holding states from Maryland
to Louisiana: for, strange as if may appear to
those who have never observed for themselves,
nor reflected on this matter, it is demonstrably
true, that slaters are the most profitable of all
operatives, in the business of manufacturing
coarse fabrics, where ingenuity has furnished
them with suitable machinery. In Ken-ucky,
for instance, by the assistance of trifling ma
chines, slaves manufacture vast quantities of
hempen bagging. We, indeed, scarcely see ti
ny other operatives ,n tho great factories of
Lexington, Paris, Danville,- Slielhyv.lle, and
other towns in Kentucky. If wo except a
manager or two, and a machinist, neither Eng
lishmen, Scotchmen, ntir even New England
evehrows, and drew back. Here the spectn-
rors interfered, some punching the bear with
sticks and rails, others pushing on the dogs.—
A simultaneous velping of the whole park now
took place—some brisk skirmishing ensued—
the bear finding his friends rather pressing, en
deavored to escape up n tree, but was dragged
down, unceremonroii'd.v, by tho tail—he on-
sennred h mself however in a corner, and
seemed disposed to act only on the defensive.
■ Second Act. The pen was torn down, and
the combatants allowed more room for their
exercise. Bruin, taking advantage of an op
portunity, sprung up a tree, to reconnoitre: es
pying a spring hard by, he came down and
made for it, and though closely pursued, suc
ceeded in taking possession—planting his pos
teriors in the gum, ho appeared quite at hemp,
and dared the enemy to dislodge him—whenev-
er a dog came near, ho slapped his lace with
his paw, or threw mud in It s eyes.
Third Act. Tlie xvig maker was compelled
bv the bystanders to quit his shop—some tus-
tl'iig took place on the dry land, in which seve
ral dogs had their heads finely dressed—be
coming fatigued he attempted several times to
quit business b v climbing a tree, but his strength
failed. He then betook himself again to the
water, or rather mud—here a sharp confl ct
took place, in which the peruke maker xvas
floored, a dog in turn holding him bv the nose
—he recovered himself hoxvever xvith the lossof
mon, are to he seen in these profitable estab- ! a whisker and a bloody nose, and kept the en-
lishments. YVhy are slaves employed? Simply ! emy at hjty. Tho skirmishing was kept up for
because experience has proved that they are! several hours, the victory appearing at times
more docile, more constant, aud cheaper than ' doubtful, but the dogs at lusr gave out, having

plenitude of her power, imagined that two mil- enjoy their misery, to feed his pernicious ambi-

of making a hoe handle or n hobnail; and xvith
a spirit as blind, New England now seems to
imagino that the cotton growing states, with a
million or two of the best operatives tn the
world, will continue incapablo of using these
simple machines, which the very children of
the white slaves of Europe can learn to man
age in a month. The eradication of this gross
and silly prejudice, in the north and south, w.ll
produce a complete revolution in public opin
ion xvith regard to manufactures, in every por
tion of our country. To secure the cotton crop
of the south in cotton bagging and rope, xv.H
require twenty-eight thousand bales of cotton
annually. This is no inconsiderable market;
but it xvould bo prodigiously augmented by tlie
use of our cotton in blankets, aud coarse ne
gro clothing.
To construct machines necessary in the ma
nufactory of such an immense slock of cotton,
and to superintend tho uso of them, and keep
them in repair, would employ much of the in

so many achievements in her deliverance;
but he is not the first that, after repelling inva
