SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY T Inilm 4taMtiiK| T. C. HOWARD and R. A. CRAWPOKB, CUKDITOKS. a. - -• ma* ■*-■»*- - V-* ATLANTA, OBOSOIAi SATURDAY, MARCH l>, 1601. The Administration of James Buchanan. Should the peu of the future historian cor rectly portray the leading features of tha Ad ministration of James Buchanan as President of the United States ef America, commencing bis term of office March 4th, 1857, and ending March 4th, 18C1, posterity will point to that Administration as the most infamous in the Annals of Republican institutions. All things considered, history does not, nor could not, furnish a parallel. When Mr. Buchanan eutored upon the dis charge of the duties as chief Executive of the American Republic, he found the country unu sually prosperous and happy. Commerce, manufactures and agriculture were remunera live in the highest degree. Public confidence was unshaken, private interests protected, end the general welfare guarded and promoted — The arts and sciences flourished; and under the administrative abilities of hia predecessors, American progress and American institutions had not only become the Nation’* pride, but the wonder and admiration of civilisation. But from the hour James Buohanan became President of the United States, from that hour commenced the decline, and finally the de struction of the American Union of States.— Being by nature and confirmed habit, treach erous and deceptive, he brought disgrace upon himself and his Administration. Hit name and Administration will henceforth be a by word of scorn and contempt, and with cancer ous tenacity cling uuto death to the vitals of those who have administered to his appetites and conformed to bis mandates. Treachery, deception, imbecility, indeeission, venality and corruption has marked his Administration from its inception to its ignominious expiration. History but too plainly demonstrates that, i a large majority of instances, Mr. Buchana was peculiarly unfortunate in his appoint ments. The Covode investigating committee astounded the American people, as well as dis gusted other governments, by an exposition of the most incredible corruptions—corruptions in which the President himself was crimina- tod. And from tho Post Oflice defalcation of Isaac V. Fowler of New York, in conjunction with innumerable other robberies, the most startling disclosures are constantly beiDg made to the utter disgust of every citizeD. The col lussion with Abraham Lincoln, the endorser of Helper’s impending crisis to defeat Stephen A. Douglas in the State of Illinois, and the use of the public monies in bribing Congress members in the Lecompton and Kansas embroglio, prove Mr. Buchanan to have been the most unscru pulons of public men. His effort to procure at appropriation of thirty millions, under the pre tence of purchasing the Island of Cuba, and lastly the arrest of Gen. William Walker by Paulding and Davis, and finally the murder of Walker are evidences conclusive to us that Mr. Buchanan was no patriot cr friend to the ex tension of slavery. Independent of the frauds, swindling, in ficience in office, and every species and variety of peculation aud corruption which has chi acterizsd his Administration, his most ardent aud devoted admirers cannot point to the first oasis cf virtuous statesmanship in that great desert of American history circumscribed by his term, that is not tsinted by disingenuous- nesa or blighted by falsity and deception. Gen. Jackson well understood the character of Mr. Buchanan when he declared that he could not be trusted. Mr. Buchanan was elect ed to the Presidency by tho freest and happi est people in existence, the sovereigns of the best government ever made by man. He has destroyed the party which placed him in pow er; he haa destroyed the commerce and trade of the American people; he has brought star vation and dependence upon liundieds and thousands; he has brought the Government of Washington and Jackson into ridicule and contempt; he has deceived bis friends and cheated his enemies; and has destroyed the Union of tho State*, aud by his p licy the land of liberty is now threatened to be deluged in fratricidal blood. Doring the Administration of Mr. Buchanan, the Fugitive Slave Law has not been enforced. nor a foot of Slave territory lias been added to the Union. Nor has the interests of Slavery been fostered in any manner; but on the con trary, the Cuban, Kansas, and Central Ameri can policy of the Buchanan Administration was inaugurated to destroy Slavery. John Brown raids, insurrections, conflagrations, and insubordination, combined with the rise of isms, and tho circulation of incendiary docu ments, has marked the black era of James Buchanan’s reign. He deceived the South by the O.tend Mani festo, his Cuban, Kansas, and Central Ameri can policy. He defrauded tho North-Western Democracy by the defeat of Douglss, and has most effectually swindled the Yankee 8tates out of the Union. He gave to the exasperated South, the small torts and arsenals within their territory, but reserve*!, for his friend Lin coln, the strongholds of Sumpter and Pickens. He made friends with the Puritans by order ing reinforcement* to Forts Sumter and Pick ens, but appeased the South by causing the Star oj the West to retire, without returning the fire upon Morris' Island. He opposes coercion in hia message, but order* Anderson and fllem- mcr to retain Sumter and Pickens. Thus it is, Mr. Buchanan is all things to all sections, but stealthily Malignant to those who have not bowed to his behests. He has now retired to the shades of obliquy and contempt, unhunored, and disgraced. Let him go, pos terity will write his epitaph I A Pregnant Question. The President of the United Slates, in that unhappy tissue of ignorance, craft and mask ed hestility, called the Inaugural, asks this question: ought not a law be passed to secure * the eltisens of each State all the privileges and immunities of the citizens of the several States?" Take this hint and cont-true it with the light thrown on it by his previous bold as sertion, that “the different States have the power to make a negro acifizen under the Con stitution of tho United Stales, if they choose. The l)red Scotldecision decides that they have not that power.” We see that, in as grave and impressive a paper as an Inaugural Address, the Abolition President of the North instilts one-half of the States once belonging to the Uuion over which he piesides, by asserting a doctrine at war with their peace, honor and safety. Gen. Cass was right when he said, in his Detriot speech, that the world never wit nessed such madness before, as instigates the present troubles of tho country. Latest from Pensacola. An officer of the Army of Occupation, just arrived from the forts near Pensacola, furnish es the Mobile Tribune come items which will be read with interest: Capt. O’Hara is in command of Fort McRae. He has by the most nntiring efforts placed it in a proper state of defence. The guus are all mounted and his men well drilled us caunon- iera. Capt. O’Hara and his men have worked night and day, and his efforts are worthy of the highest commendation. Among other preparations aud precautions, Capt. O’Hara warned the Wyandotte to keep further from his fort in her trip9 to and from the fleet and Nary Yard. Col. Forney of the army of Alabama, is now. in command of the forces at Pensacola and neighborhood, and his policy is to take Fort Pickens at all hazards. He haa erected several batteries and mounted 10 and 8 inch colum- biads, so as to command both Fort Pickens and the entrance to the harbor. The Brooklyn, Sa bine and St. Louis are outside; the Brooklyn anived with twenty 11 inch columbiads, the other ships have very heavy gun3 There is now on hia way to Mount Vernon, for trial by court martial, a deserter from Capt.

GEORGIA STATE CONVENTION. Savannah, March 7, 1S61. This body riiUsemblod, as per cull of tho President, Hon. G. W. Crawford, at Masonic Hall, in this city, to-day at noon. There were about two buudred and Bixty members iu at tendance. Some of the moat prominent arc still absent at Montgomery, a portion of whom, I understand, will, however, return and take their seats on Monday. Such men as Toombs, Stephens, Hill, Cobb, Rurtow, and others, though we miss them here, can, perhaps, serve our newly asserted rights better in the Congress of the Confederate States. Tho Convention was opened with an appropriate and imprea- j tion, or any other consideration that could pos- xiye prayer,_by tho Rev. Mr. C#l.l\v.ll, of Trio- ! 8ibly Brile . I„d«ed. the il.», ». ,h..ul.l f in Mil- i be disfranchised and subject ;«• a Government, ty(M. E .) Church, of this cit The Journal of the last day a eiuing in xun- ledgeville was read and confirmed. Mr. Hood offered n resolution in relation to the oath of tho President ami members of the Convention. The oath is, to support the Pro visional Constitution of the Con federate States. Mr Hood supported the resolution. Wlieu this body assciublod at Milledgeville, it watt not necessary to take tiie oath to support the United States Constitution, but he thought that, as sinco that time a Government hud been formed, it had become necessary. Mr. Robertson, of Macon, wished to wait till the permaneut Constitution was adopted, and Mr. Fouebc saw no necessity of swearing at all; be was opposed to it in the abstract. Be sides, this was a Convention of the Sovereign people, and above all Constitutions. Mr. Ilood’a resolution was put, aud lost, by a very large majority. Mr. Smith, of DeKalb, moved a resolution that Dr. Hoyle, of said county, bo allowed to take his seat as a member, uo having been elected in the place of tho Hon. Charles Mur The site aelected for its permanent Councils ident would do his duty, and reinforce Ander son and protect him at all hazards. It South Carolina resisted, the consequences would be on her own bead. Dr. Wirt told him what would be the effect of such a course on (he South. All the conservative and Union-lov ing men of Virginia and the South would re sist ; secession would result, and the entire South forced iulo Union. He answered, that could not be helped. When Dr. Wirt inquir ed if he ever expected the South to return to the Uniou after (heir homes bad been threat ened nud their country devasted, he answer ed, “We do uot want them to return. If the slave .States remain in the Union, they will have to be satisfied with much less thau they are now demanding.’ Dr. Win then inquir ed if he expected to subjucate the South ? He said: * Ten inilliotis of people with four millions of slaves iu their midst, could scarce ly resist twenty six millions.* Hut what is your object ? inquired Dr. Wirt, and he an swered, Mo free the slave who is the cause of the war.’ What will you do with him when thus freed? * Allow you to have him as a “ Peon" to work your fields, if you are wil ling to pay for their services; if not, they can be colonized in ‘Central America.* Dr Wirt then inquired if (be fugitive slate law was »o be respected. Mr. Chase said; ‘It would be modified, aud when a slave who escaped was ptrsutd and identified, he could he given up or paid for, if paid for, he would be sent to the aforesaid colony in Central America.’ “ He added, in the event of war in the South, no slaves would be in Virginia within one year ; and in leu years no slaves would be found within the borders of Southern Con federacy ” + ♦ “The Wicked Fleeth When no man Pur- suetht” That is the proper text for the president's chaplain to pieach from, the first time Lin coln atteuds church. The other clause would seem to he more applicable to his wife, a high spirited Kentucky lady, than to himself,— t. r., “The righteous are as bold as a lion.”— The Baltimore correspondent ot the Charleston Mercury says that he happens to know the only and true cause of Lincoln’s midnight run through Maryland. Those whose deep inter est it ia to have him alive in Washington were afraid to allow him to pas-* through the State of Maryland by daylight, and with this end in view, numerous dispatches were received by his keepers in Harri-burg, on Friday night, to tho effect that the train on the Northern Central Railway would be thrown from the track al a point where the death of all on board would be inevitable. These dispatches were sent by Gen. Scott, Senator Seward, and oiliers, who averred their information was from reliable sources in Baltimore. Lincoln was hurried oft by (he circuitous way of Phil adelphia—not even allowed to toke his wife aud children with him, but compelled to let them lake the very train that he bad been di rected to avoid. What did the interested ones care for poor Mrs. Lincoln and her children, so that the great aim of their ambition, the tool they haveelegated to the Presidency, was safely aud securely caged in Washington ?— What will the world think of a man, no mat ter how high or low his pocition, who will shrink from a danger, and at the same time allow Ids wife and childreu to encouuter it? Why, the instincts of the veriest brute in the animal creation compels it to protect its oft - spring from danger.—Richmond Dispatch. will, os a consequence, become a city, great, wealthy, and maguificent, in proportion to the greatness and glory of that Republic which has chosen her for its Capital. Amongst tho places which havo been men tioned as the future Federal City of this new Government, the city of Atlanta is, perhaps, the most promineut; aud it certainly combines more advantages and more arguments in its favor than any other location that has been j suggested. But it may be jostled aside, and lose its advantages, by apathy and inatten tion to its own imposing and eminent claims, aud some other city, less favorably situated, but more urgent aud active, may obtain the position to which wo are, under every view which should goveru this matter, legitimately entitled. Something definite should be done by this city and county, without delay, to show, not merely that we are candidates fir the per manent installment of the Federal Govern- meut in our midst, but that we are willing and read. to aubmit to all qualifications And con ditions needful to make our city aud conter minous territory a suitable permaoeut site for our Southern Republic. Nothing less than the eminent domain over our city, and such sur rounding territory as might be necessary, would meet the expectations, or answer the purpose, of the Confederate States. If we desire, then, for Atlanta to become the Federal City, and to enjoy the great advantages that would accrue to us from the position in the world that this would give us, we should, at once, and without delay, memorialize and empower the Georgia j Convention, now in session, to tender to the j Confederate States the exclusive jurisdiction, or domain, over our city, and such surrounding territory as might be esteemed needful to make j us an inviting and consistent Federal District. The writer cannot (hink tlint it would be go- : ing too far, to authorize our Convention to ten- ! dor to the Confederation a formal and perma- 1 nent cession of the city of Atlanta and county I of Fulton for the purposes of the National Gov- ; ernment. Should this cession be accepted, the i advantages that Would accrue to this city, i would far outweigh any aud all objections that | possibly cau arise from the change of iurisdic- without representation, is the only considera tion that should, or ought, t<» weigh, for a mo ment, against this measure; ami to Ihie, two answers may, it is believed, Le readily given. 1st. It would be but reasonable that this Dis trict, (especially if it embraced the whole coun ty,) should havo a permanent representation in the Congress, and, accordingly, we have no doubt, that this right would bo readily conce ded, and if this right were allowed us, the ob jection would bo fully met and obviated ; for, if represented iu the Congress, we should have as strong assurances of a good government here, as we cou d have under the Btate of things now existing.

The company once funned, three iron screw propellers are to be built and run as a regular line between Charleston and Liv erpool. It is intended that they be of 1,H00 tons measurement, and 2.50 hone power, with capacity for 4,000 bales of Cotton, taking the bale at 440 lbs.
