Dur : ing the day a pardon from the Executive arrived ; and was placed in the Sheriff's hands. Tills news created intense excitement, and after several tu | tnnltuous meetings, a crowd of hundreds, rcer, ‘ women and children repaired to the jail, and in defiance of the remonstrances of the Sheriffs, broke open the jail, hurried the prisoner to the woods j ami hung lint. At this moment of excitement it would be folly ; to attempt to write homilies on the princ’ples of . law, morality and public order so ruthlessly violat j ed in flits unhappy proceeding. When hot blood and passion have become cool ed down to a sense of reason, weslta'] endeavor to give a correct history of the affair, with such com mentaries as are justified by tho facts. Mean time, so strong were the public sympathies against the prisoner, that the Sheriff - and other civil au ! thorities were utterly powerless to perform their | duties. NEW YORK WHIG POLITICS. The treaty between the “higher law” wing of | the whig party, represented by Seward, Weed, j abolition and Cos., and the “Silver Greys,” or con | servitive National Whigs, represented by Fill j more and Cos., has been completed. Like all the j compromise ? that are ever made in this country, | where the interests of the South are concerned, it ■ has resulted in giving up the rights of the South. , The Silver Greys who maintained (rather feebly ! to be sure) that the South has some rights, have I hv this treaty surrendered to the dominant and i• 4 • more violent faction of the “Woolly heads.” And now where is the South left by this compromise ? j Where she always has been by every preceding i one—in the lurch—sacrificed, cut oft - front sytnpa \ thy and even the promise of support—her institu tions, her rights and liberties opened to renewed • assault, through all the channels of the press, the j forum, the pulpit and the halls of Congress which j have iierefo c ore been the media of agitation.— Wlrle these are facU, the South is ieft by these . “high-contracting powers” to studi satisfaction as ° 1 j j they fieri ve from a declaration in general terms, j : that the New York whig party thus united, will j respect the constitution and the laws ! dust to think of the “ higher law” men making such a declaration ? They have shown what they mean 1 by respect for the constitution, when they have asserted that the law of abolition consciences is paramount to the law- of tho constitution. The Independent Press of New York, regard this trea ; tv as a disgraceful surrender of the National whigs I or Fillmorines to the abolition section of the party. The New York Dav Book, an independent pa per in polities, and Southern in its feedings, says : “ UMON AND HARMONY IN THE WIHO PARTY. , Tho woolly heads have succeeded al last in bringing 1 about their long desired union and hormouy in the whig j party—or in other words have coaxed the silver grays to let them harness their wheel horses again to the old Weed coach & put on Seward leaders & woolly head dri vers. The truth is, men sometimes, &. indeed quite often, get taken in with their own ideas. .The silver grays have sung compromise so long and become so much absorbed with the one idea, that they are at last caught by it and j have surrendered to the woolly heads, under the pretense |of ‘‘compromise,’’just at the time when they had their ’ enemies under their feet. During all our experience in the world and in politics, we do not remember of ever having heard apolitical question discussed with more certain prospects of bring ing all the sensible portion of the community over to one way of thinking than has been the question of slavery and the fugitive slave law. In open, frank, energetic discussion, the abolitionists and woolly heads lose ground ! as rapidly a 3 their opponent could expect or desire.— , The cogs in their great wheel break off one after another, like cobs, even’ time they turn it: and now, seeing that they are no longer able to move the machinery, they call out for “compromise,” which the silver grays blindly and foolishly catch at and go over body and soul to tho woody heads. There never was a coming event more plainly foreshadowed then that, the woolly heads would : knock under. Their underpinning was all gone and they knew it. The material for further operations was want* ; ing, and it was impossible for them to go on under the flag,they had hoisted.”-— X. Y. Day Book. ’ Ihe following is an cxiract from an article in the ’ V. Herald on the subject, under the cap on •’ ‘-'Bargain between the Seward Whigs and the Silver Grays—Surrender of the latter.” [From the New York Herald.] “The policy of the abolition Whies was this: They wanted a union—they wished the disjointed factions of the Whig party re-united, as much, ftnd more, than the Filver grays did: for, although they may atlempt to des pise the Silver Gray force in the legislature, where they did not particularly need it, they would be glad to l ave it on the day of election, so as to present a united front to the disjointed democracy. But, in order to effect such a union, they wanted the Silver greys to abandou their platform—to consent ton union, without any reference to the compromise measures of last Congress, which consti tute the great question of the day, so that they might be able, when the proper time arrived, to renew the slavery 1 agitation, and recommence the war against he South, i by proposing a repeal of the Fugitive slave hw, or such i a modification of its provisions as would render it nnga | lory to s!i intents and purposes. j This was the kind of union which the abolition Seward . Whigs wished to form with tlic Silver Grays, and one j which the latter could never enter into without a sacrifice ! of honor and principle. The compromise measures were ! intended by their authors as a final settlement of the slavery question, on the basis of the Constitution. They were accepted as such by the patriotic ot all parties, throughout the land ; and any attempt to repeal any one of them, especially the Fugitive slave law, would rekin dle ‘he fiamo of excitement which burred so fiercely a vear ago, and threatened to consume the government and the republic. Such, however, is the union, or bargain, which the Silver Gray league entered into with the Se ward abolition wing. A more dishonorable and disgraceful surrender of principle we never heard i of. The Silver Grays abandoned the manly pht j form which they laid out for themselves, threw aside j their principles, and caved in, body and soul, to the cne- I miesoflhe Constitution —for enemies to tba* sacred in strument the Seward Whigs are, notwithstan ‘ g all the twaddle to the contrary. Our readers will mark that portion of the joint call for a convention which is intend ed to refer to the Fugitive slave law. It says “that the rights of citizens as voters are equally undeniable to dis cuss. with the full and mutual regard for the rights and interests of all parts of the confederacy, (which is as ne cessary now to maintain, aa it was indispensable to a cbieve the blessed union of these States,) Oie expedien cy of such laws, and the propriety of any of their provi sions, and to seek by constitutional means their repeal or modification.” Could anything be more plain than this? j. not this a d-laratic*n~a point Wank assertion-that “THK UNION* OF fR & STATKS AND THE SOVEREIGNTY OF THE STATES.” the abolition Whigs of New York intend to re-open the slavery agitation, and move for a repeal of the Fugitive slave law ? If it is not, then we do not understand the English language. And yet the Silver Grays submitted to it—disgracefully surrendered themselves.” Here is another voice speaking trumpet-toDcued to the South to be united. When will the South learn the wisdom to repudiate all Northern politi cal alliances, and cease to be the dupes and cat paws of Northern politicAus? The New York Tribune, one of the most, rabid abolition papers in the oountry, felicitates itself and readers upon the result—-thus test'fying the opinion of the abolitionists themselves that they have “done” the Silver Grays : “The platform which we publish above must commend itself for its wisdom and justice to all whigs, no matter how widely they may have differed with regard to tho compromise in general, or the Fugitive slave law In par ticular. Very properly, it puts foremost those cardinal, permanent measures, adherence to which makes tta Whigs. It then proclaims inflexible hostility to Siavery Extension and loyalty to the Constitution and Union; and asserts the duty of obey'r.g every law of the country ; as well as the rights of each citizen to discuss a’l laws, j and seek the modification or repeal of such as do not j commend themselves to his judgment. And, finally, it declares the confidence of the party In the National and State administration. With a platform so liberal and fair, we may well rely or. the unity of action so desirable for the triumph of that system o r policy which we believe to be for the bos', in terests of the country. The committeo at Albany have done thoir duty; it is now for the Whigs of the State to do theirs.” steamer Pampero, which sailed from New Orleans for Cuba, Sunday Mourning, at 4 o'clock carried Gen Lopez with 500 men. They hold a full battery of artillery, consisting of ten cannon, with 1,700 rifles, a large number of Colt's revolvers and any quantity of ammunition. A corps of engineers were on board. What point the Pampero will steer to is not known. She was hired for the trip and $32,000 security were given for her in case of her loss. —Mobile Register 9 ih inst.

CUBA. We publish to-day some of the latest accounts of the progress of the Revolution in Cuba. It is j strange that while the minutest details are given of the risings of the patriots in various parts of the : Island, of uronunciamentos, declaration of inde- ; pendence, addresses to the people and to the army, of skirmishes and combats between the Patriots | and troops, of movements of the Span'sh fleet and army : yet that it is stoutly denied in some quar ters that there is any revolution at all; and it is asserted that the whole thing is a preconcerted fab j ideation for the purpose of raising an excitement as the basis of an expedition from this country.— Tito leader will agree with us that so monstrous and complicated a lie as this, could not have sur vived so long, and that there is the strongest evi- , dence to show that the people of that Island have at length made a strike for Independence.

In this district I think there will be a decided majority for Bailey and I think a majority for McDonald. An intelli gent gentleman from Thomas and another from Lowndes, say that Cobb made good Southern Rights men of- several promi nent Union men in Decatur.—Two thirds of the visitors here are McDonald men and in fine spirits. We have some very flatter ing accounts from the up country, but whether to be relied on cr not, I cannot say, I expect to go to the mountains in a few davs and will write you all the news when I have been there long enough to learn any thing to be. depended on. At the various watering places above this, I shall probably see a pret ty fair representation of the State. The few Cobb men here so far as I have heard them express themselves are not very sanguine. Since writing the above I have seen the Macon Messenger, which says we are beaten horse fbot and dragoons in Alabama. Chap is sometimes mistaken. I hope this is one of the times. It may possibly be the best for the South—the men who are wait- I ingin South Carolina for co-operation will j have to go with the crowd, and if she secedes I it will do one of the two things, it gives us some amendments to the Constitution or builds up a Southern confederacy. I prefer the amendments—but they must be such as will secure us against future aggression. No one expects indemnity for the past. RAMBLER. SOUTHERN RIGHTS MEETING IN MERIWETHER COUNTY.

The situation of the, Government is des perate—without resources—without sympa thy—without confidence in you. Mftny of your fellow-citizens at Puerto Principe have joined the ranks of the patriots. The approaching arrival of the gallant and beloved General Nareisco Lopez, seals the downfall of the most oppressive and corrupt government the world has ever suffered, —of that remorseless government which dragged you from your homes, in the flower of your youth, to be the instruments of oppression of your brethren in Cuba, under the banners of that government which will reward you as it has rewarded all who have sacrificed them selves in America in her defence. On the other hand, if you join us, and con tribute to achieve the liberty of Cuba, we will receive you as friends, —as brothers; we will treat you as freemen, and repay your services with money. Each soldier who enlists un der our banner, shall receive twelve ounces in gold and a tract of land; his daily stipend until the country regains its tranquillity upon the downfall of its tyrants, Bhall be five reals per diem. Soldiers choose between the two. In our ranks you will be freemen, fighting for the cause of humanity and progress : in the ranks of our enemies, von lose the dignity of men, and are regarded as brutes. If, ho waver, se TUKSDAY.

On tho sth, in concert with another party from Holquin, they marched upon Tunas; but in the night ono party mistook the other and a melee took place, in which five were killed in the obstinate battle and t wen tv eight wounded, before they discovered their sad error. Nevertheless they, as soon as they saw it, combined, and set upon the company of the Zaragoza Regiment in its barracks, and, after a short resistance, in which there were a few wounded, the Spanish troops joined them in ihe cry of “Liberty !” Tho Governor implored their lenity, ‘and tiiev left him at liberty, only taking from him his horse, sabre, pistols, and one thousand dollars of the Government money. They then marched upon the purtida of Sun Juan de S uita Gruz, and on the Bth they found themselves in Cascorro, with 380 cavalry and 200 infantry. Theßth and 9th were passed in the organ ization of four parlies under the command of those patriots who had distinguished them selves the most, at Las Tunas.

The patriots allowed the Col onel and first company to pass and when the second was on the wharf they fell upon them anil threw them into complete confusion. Tho result was, that they took Colony lCon- I ti, six officers and fifty-six men prisoners; I i they saw thirty-six dead,without counting the ! j wounded; they captured several materials of / j war anti guns.

Toombs. 11. of R. Feb. iff 1850. (KrWe are informed, on good author ity that the Captain-General of Cuba, Concha, recently told one of our naval officers that if it was necessary to secure the Spanish authority in Cuba,|theslaves would be ’liberated and armed against the patroits, and the guns of Moro Castle would be turned on Havana. If that be the intention of the Spanish authorities, it would not only justify, but require not only the Southern States, but the American governmant to interpose immediately. For a massacre of the whites, as at St. Domingo, could not be tolerated on principles either of hu manity or justice by the federal govern ment, or the Southern States. It is said that French vessels of war are at Cuba, and the officers manifest unfriendly feelings towards Amer ican officers. Perhaps this is becuse there are colored officers among the French. We would not be surprised that French and English intervention were attempted—and that it wcffild lead to a more com.prehensive struggle than the mere liLeration of Cuba. — [ Southern Press.

We have made special inquiry into the mat ter, and from the most reliable authori ty, we find his bill of costs, paid from his own packet, to amount to $1,500! Dr. Potter did indeed get his negro, but had to buy him again, and gave a most exorbitant price at that! The city of Boston paid 100 policemen $3 per day for nine days, among, we suppose, other incidental expense making the respec table sum of Jive thousand one hundred dollars , which t is negro cost his owner and the city ofBoston! Added to this, the slave has been completely ruined by the excursion, for he is at the pres ent time in jail. If Southern owners of slaves have to sell two to pay expense in recovering one, ought we not to have unlimited confidence(!!!) in the faith and “law abiding” people of the North!” And is not this a “glorious Union” which can secure us the enjoyment of so many privileges and rights! !

If, according to the anticipation of the Republican, certain signs of the times “ conclusively show’, that Caro lina’s resolution has been taken and that she will go out of the Union,” ar and if after the“ Helion upon Ossa”array ot evidence going to show Mr. Cobb’s denial of the right of peaceable seces sion, the people of Georgia shall elect him their chief executive magistrate, it is not difficult to form some probable conjecture ofthe consequences that mey ensue. We have the assuiance of Mr. Webster. Mr. Fillmore’s Secretary of State, that “ the first step taken in the programme of secession, which shall be an actual infringement of the Constitu tion or the laws, will be promptly met.” What he means by ‘‘an actual infringe ment of the constiiution or the laws” i easily understood—secession, in his view, would be such infringement.— Peaceable secession would not be tdle rated—“ to arms, to arms,” would re soun .1 through the American capital, and the first scene in the programme would be, we imagine, A Requisition upon Georgia!—Whe ther the order for troops would be direct ed to “our trusty and well beloved Cobb’ or simply to “his excellency the Gov. and commander-in-Chief,” &c. is of no moment. We take it for granted that an order would come, and judging Mr. Cobb by the same rule that we would apply to any other man who regards the obligation of an official oath, we as sume, from his declared opinions and his refusal to let the people know what course he would pursue in such a con juncture that he would obey. We have seen no reason tor saying that he would “ take coursel ofthe people by calling them together in Convention, as thu Savannah Republican suggests; or that he would “at once take the sense of the people of Georgia by a call ofthe Leg islature,” as believed by the Southern Recorder. We have the high authority of Mr. Cobb himself for saying “where constitutions end revolutions b gin” —and have been assured that revolution is not a peaceable right. The second scene then, as we suppose, would be the call lor volunteers(!!)or, failing in that, an Order for a Draft!—Now, let any man in his senses picture to himself the drafting of the militia of Georgia for a military descent upon the people ofthe sovereign State ot South Garolina—a people identified with us in the associa tions of a common origin and a com mon interest’ In the memorable lan guage of Gov. Troup, “let those who please to indulge in the revery of keep ing this Union by force, go on in their mad career.” Rut the counsels of Gov. Troup would hardly be heeded—„Del endaest Carthago'.” and political hersey must not be tolerated in Mr. Fillmore’s dominions. The draft proceeds. There are, we solemnly believe, some parts of Georgia (may we not say so of alll)! wheie such a proceeding would be tur ned into the veriest farce—where the very boys aye, and ilie women, too, would point the finger of scorn at any man who would dare to take up arms against the people of a State! We would fain hope “that in our downwardcoursft to the grave, we have not reached a point so near the brink.” But suppos ing the draft to proceed, the next scene in the programme would be The March!— We have no heart for conjecturing either the order in which the march would occur, or the material of the invading array. When States are to be subjugated, indifferent matters are not to be regarded. Secession must be met “effectually and at once,”and then comes “last scene of all that ends this strange eventful history”—but we forbear—there is no need for imagina tion here— two border States engaged in all the horrors of a; civil warfare! — And for what! Because the “moral sense of the world is against us!” Be cause the conscience of New England must be satisfied!
