Let it not he understood that wo Would t ft the aggressor and w ithout provo cation advoca c club law, but wo would, ns every other man would, belabor one w ho called os a liar. Stunner says Senator But ler “touches nothing ho does not defile with error,” that he “discharges the loose ex pee- total inn of speech." This martyr Senator compares Douglas to a skunk who switches his nauseous odor throughout the Senate chamber. Now we would ask in all conscience who was the aggressor! All we can say is, that when u man, be lie a Senator or a common er, makes use ol such insulting and despica ble language, ho should I e prepared nnd even expect chastisement. The mannermust ho left to tin* parties insulted. Freedom ol speech or the press is not to he defended when they are used to defame the living and the dead. There is Senator Wilson of Massachusetts, who rises iti his place and denounce#Brooks ns 1 villain and a coward and then shields himself under his Senatorial dignity lor pro tection. Wh > hut a dastard would do this ! No man should use insulting or degrading epithets toward another and nt the atonic time rciu.su tu hold htmsoll responsible.

Wilson has simply shown himself a pol troon, by first giving often mi and then refus ing lo hold himscll responsible.

Tho city of New Orleans was disgraced on the 2.1 inst. hy terrible and bloody riots, in which three incn were killed and a great many others seriously wounded. It was election day for Mayor and City Ofliecrs, und a tegular organised bund of rowdies, numbering about 100, UTincd to the teeth, moved about from poll to pop, insulting, browbeating, threaten.ng and intimidating peaceable voters.— This band was undoubtedly organized nnd discip lined fir many dnyn previous to the election, us about 20 of them appeared mounted on horseback e irly in the day, painted and disguised as Indians. In various corners Of tho streets were to lie seen mysterious Hand-bills, surmounted hy three lines. Red, Black und Blue,and underneath was printed "Remember 'ho hour/’ Bands of Armed n.cn were ruling in carriages through the streets and pointing loaded pistols ut children on tho sidewalk as they passed. Throughout the dav discharges of tire-arms were heard on tho streets all over the city, and young men from 18 t 28 years of ago in hands, weie parading, yelling like demons, in tact, tho city was entirely under mob iiilc. Tho day previv us to the election one hull of the police sent in their resignations to the Major, while tho half that remained were of no service, and thus tho city was entirely in the hands of the rioU*rs. The organized b ind of nrmod men moved about from poll la pull, and of course entirely controlled the election. Aldcunun McKnight, ot the c-> in mere it) 1 house of Goodrich d. Go., large Jobbing Grocers, was a candidate for re election ; lie was knocked down and Ins life would have been taken had it not been for the interference of one of tho candi dates lor Mayor. The Mayor issued n Proriatna- lioii culling upon nil citizons to enroll themselves, hut not more than 4U responded to the call. At one of the polls 0110 ol tl.e Judges ol election re ceived a pistol ball through In* hat, about 12 o’clock, lie 1 bought it time after this to shut up the pop, and he did so iunnediutcjy, sealing the hov and Mending U to the Mayor’s oilier, stating that the other two Jiuiges had previously left. At night the fiu.l sWlndi. in two ot the Markets were com pletely rrplled aud destroyed, and the frun thrown From the W nshlnglon atar, (Democratic Pierce paper.) Mr. BuchnnaiTs Texas Spooch. flic (Congressional Globe, port II, vol. IB, of the Appendix, contains a speech of Mr. Buchanan, on the admission ot Texas, de livered in secret session on Ji)p.o § t 1SH, which, as ar item ol history* is not without interest nt this time. The only portion ol the speech which is at present of interest, is that which relates to the question of slave ry. This 8iil)jeol is first mentioned in the following extract: “In arriving nt tho conclusion to support this truuly, 1 had to encounter but on2 serious obstacle, AND THAT WAS THE QUESTION OF slavery. Whilst 1 ever have maintained, and ever shall maintain, in their full force and vigor, th«* constitutional rights ol the Southern States over their slave property, / yet feel a si rung repugnance by any act of mint to extend the limits of the Union over a n :'w slave holding territory. Alter mature reflection however, l overcame these scruples, and now believe that the acquisition of Texas will bo tho means of LIMITING, not EN LARGING, the dominion of SLAVERY. “In tho government ot tho world. Provi dence generally produces great changes by gradual means. There is nothing rash in tho counsels of tho Almighty. May not, then, the acquisition ol Texas be the means ol gradually drawing tho sluvns tar to the South to a climate more congenial to their nature: and may they not Dually pass oil into Mexico, und tulle mingle with a i WHEItF. NO rttEJClitn. EXISTS AGAINST TlIKlIl COLOR • The Mexican nulion is composed ol Spaniards, Indians and negroes, blended together in every variety, who would receive our slaves on terms ol period social equali ty . To this condition they never cun be ad mitted into the United States. “Thai the acquisition ot Texas would, ere long, convert Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, and probably others ot the more Northern slave Mules, into free Status, 1 entertain nut a doubt. From tho Fayuttuvlllo (N.^C.) OUarfor—(014 Lino Whig The Nominations. It will be seen that the Cincinnati Conven tion has resulted in the nomination ol James Buchanan, ot Pennsylvania, for ProRuknt, and John C. Breckenridge, of Kentucky, tor Vico President. Mr. Buchanan is an old politician, too old and well known to require description, lie camo into political life a violent Federalist, bitterly hostile to the war of 1MPJ, and to the virtuous Republican Administration of Mr. Madison, under which it was loclared and prosecuted. He subsequently abandon ed the Eederal party and became a Jackson democrat ; and with that party his political fortunes have since been identified, ami have flourished—Senator in Congress, Sec retary of State, Minister to England, and now candidate for the Presidency. We do not regard him us u reliable man. (Emv.h well aware, ‘personally, of the in- jusPcft of the charge of “bribery and cor ruption” made bv nis party against Mr. Clay in 1825. and had il in his power by his own testimony to relievo Mr. Clay, who was his personal friend, though parly opponent, ot the imputation. But no never did Air. Clay justice by telling the whole truth. We can not forgive him tor so treating a frank nnd candid man like Henry Clay. The particu lars may be found in “Colton’s Life of Henry Clay,’* vol. i, from page .’151 to 427, particu larly on page 418. But on the groat question of Iho present time he is not so reliable, we think, as Mr. Pierce, though his professions are fair. We regret, therefore, for the sike of the Sou'll, 1)is nomination over Pierce. For for anoth er reason, also, we regret it: he is a strong er candidate than Pierce, and Mr. Fillmore’s chance ol beating him is not so good.— Again: His nomination is unquestionably u triumph ol the free States over the South.— Tho latter generally preferred Pierce, who has stood by them manfully during the try ing events of thft past two yearn. All these considerations cause us to regret this nomi nation. MINUT14 OF POINTS. Decided by the Supreme Court of Georgia, May HaiuiiunJ m. lIutin'cu.fnHu Elbert.—1.

Where these ar ticles at a tlm only staples of agriculture, in the pointed nnd expressive language ol Mr. Randolph, il the slave does not rtinuwuy from his master, the master must runnwuy from the slave. The slave will naturally be r moved from such a country, where his la bor is scarcely ad. quato to his own support, to a region where lie can not on I v niaiutam himself, but yield large profits to his master. Texas will open an outlet: ,-111(1 slavery it- sell thus finally pass the Del Norte, and he lost m Mexico.
