Vour Welcome letter is received, From which I iearn that you are grieved, From causes you half way assign, To sonic imprudent step of mine, I do confess, I see with terror The consequences of my error. But my apolojrv is this. I thought ‘'that letter” not amiss, And only leaked that I might sec If others would with you agree, Too late I saw I was mistaken. And that a hornets nest was shaken. 1 then laughed at it as a jest, It would not do—l lnd confessed, ••That Letter (> That Letter ’ ail With unrelenting lungs would squall; No use. your unheard friend discovers To cry *;’/rlends countrymen and Ivvtrs For when this far. a vocal burst Arrests me *’ Oh that letter first” I wait to catch the earliest pause, Then add—“O/t hear me for my muse” When others shriek “ aim you the Peter ” ■■That used to be a fire, eater ? And here of course I leave the stand, A fire-eater is at hand, And with “ that letter ” he begins, But soon takes up your other sins; All listen, while he rolls thcrowell, Along the. bleeding sides of Howell. But do not fear th t I will flinch, Or from our cause recede an inch, With slugs from our battojy thrown, HI crack away at Mae alone: I'll make him feel if I should hit him, As if a thunderbolt had split him. When slugs are out, I’ll keep him hot, With till the larger kinds ot shot. When these are gone, why then indeed, I'll fall back on the mustard seed; For I’m first rate at the .emission, Os this last sort of ammunition. But Ilowell, think not that tny aid. Comes from the hope of being paid, I’m with you in the present tight, Merely because it is not right, And if successful, is the greater Glory to the gladiator. But if it should come in the way, What is it you propose to pay? A Governor’s appointments all, You know are very poor and small, And fulling far below tny notion, Os what would be, a due’promotion. I take it though, that what you meant, Was that you might be President, And I an invitation get, To walk into the Cabinet, Or do you promise on condition Os our success, a foreign mission? Be not so kind as Harrison. And promise place to every one: To eaclt who in your cause embarks; Make but encouraging remarks; But if you’d have my pen prolific. With me, you must be more specific, Do not suppose, that I believe. You would a valued friend deceive, Or charge that he was wrong to think, A pledge intended by a wink; For Congresss friends of abolition Admit you stuck to the condition. But we are counting ere they hatch, Os chickens quite a lovely batch; While Mac’s are out upon their legs, We are but hunting up the eggs; I hear while through the country going, At every place, his chickens crowing. Those words “wise liberal and just” You ought to modify and must; The people do not understand Why they should give up all the land; And show m<* by the plainest figures, Tlie cost of getting back the niggers- Cant we amend by adding thus “As northern men could be to us’’ And wind up with a soft regret, That “/was the best that we could get ” ? Without amendment speaking freely, Tis but the creed of Horace Greely. Now Horace, would 1 know excuse, A seeming difference of views, Ifvou will let him know the fact, That realh/ you have not tacked; Tell him you are obliged to sweeten The bait, or else ’twill not be eaten. We run against the wind and tide, Unless the north is on our side; Audit will always be content, To vote for you for President, If {Southern rights, you'll let them whittle, To nothing or to very little. j Enough, I think for southern pride, If into office we can ride. And ns the cause in which she. delves, Is hopeless, let us help ourselves; All ready in mv upper story. Are pictures of our coming glory. But Howell, tip to our knees, Down in the mud, like Hercules, I We must .with shouts for public weal, Shove at the Union waggon wheel; For heavily the rain is falling, And our bulky team is stalling. Let us resolve, that at the worst, We ll roll it up the hill or burst: We’ll let Bob help, but nothing say Specifically jus to pay: He thought to use us. but we’ll show him. When we’re elected, that we hunt/- him. Dear friend, tis difficult to stop, But here I’ll let the subject drop, And, till again I hear from you. Accept a trusting hearts’ adieu, P. S. respecting what high station, Muv l indulge a speculation? [From the Augusta Constitutionalist.] [com m usicated. ] PRIVIT AND CONFIDINSHAL. NO. HI. TO THE HON. ROBERT TOOMBS. An Irishman niver is over perlite—^ Free and aisy say I. if it lades to a site; An this being my motto, as I've written to Cobb, Sans ceremonie, I write you, dear Bob.

But to eotne to the point, this letther, dear Bob, In the same kindly spirit I wrote in to Cobb, Is meant to point out the waake points in your spache*, And to give ye me aid in repairin the britches, (You'll excuse me otnishun to put in French, That murtherous jargon gives me tongue sich a wrench, I fear twill quite ruin this bar! pen to write it, Atid therefore this letther is in Irish indited.)

And think it high time you get Giddings to mind it. They want you among them —there’s been so much desertion From the Southern ranks lately, they think your divarsion Should now come to a close; and as you know the ways Os this “masked bat'try’’ well, they say all the bays And laurels that are won, if you’ll lead the attack, Shall circle your brow. Will you stand to the rack? I know you will, Bob, and I'm pled gin ye to it. And by way of assistance to help you to do it. j Gird on that bright sword which you thought so “suggestive,” “Causing wise men to ponder,’ (Come Boh! don’t be restive.) “And brave men to act,” and as you gaze on our title To your late acquisition, let each jot and each tittle Os all your professions be strictly adhered to And silence this slander that ye rather had veered to Due North on the compass, and are summut inclined, Like a church-staple rooster, to Crow with the wind. But here is the bitterest pill that’s been made— (Laste that Febwery spache could be laid in the shade— Alas! it stands on the record, —the best In dia-rubber Could never efface it—nay, nor angel's best blubber!) ’Tis said that you claimed from England and Russia, From furriners, aliens, Spain, France and Prussia, Both non-interference and non-intervintion, And established your claim beyond all contni vintion; But the North, you said, both that and pro tection, ! Which, if we failed to get, stern neeeesity’s direction (Justified by our interests, our safety, our honor, Than all human governments hild to be stronger,) To us, as our duty, was at once to sttcede.

If ye don’t you can turn o’er these hard words to Cobh,) You now hold that the doctrine of non-inter vintioln Was all the South asked for by word or in tintion.

This winds me up, Bob,—but it must not stop you— Ye must gif out if ye can—raise a hullabaloo, And ere the noise and confusion hev intirely subsided.

It will be seen, by reference to the proceedings of the Convention, on Monday last, that our fellow citizens, George Pitts att. 1 Francis G. Wilkins, are the chosen standard bearers of the Sonthern Rights p<arty, in this county, iu the coming contest, for the lower House of our Legislature. We con gratulate our friends upon this selection, and assure them, tiiat with the proper effort, such, as is de manded by the cause in which we battle, these gentlemen, will on the morning of the 7th Octo ber next, put on the “robes of victory.” THE CUBAN MEETING. The call for a meeting of the friends of Cuban independence, on Saturday evening, was respond ed to by a very numerous and respectable body of our citizens. At no time, have we witnessed snob intense enthusiasm, as was exhibited by the audi ence, during the addresses which were delivered by the several speakers on tins occasion. Wheth er the attention was called to the brutal butchery of our brethren, by the Spanish authorities, or to the vigilant, armed interference of the administra tion, in behalf of despotism in Cuba, whether the sjH-aker expressed sympathy for the struggling pa triots, or reprobation of the reported conduct Os our consul, throughout the assembly, there prevailed an unbounded enthusiasm, which proclaims in un mistakcablc language, that the heart of our peo ple yet beats too true to liberty, and yearns to suc cor the oppressed, whenever and wherever they strike for independence. The meeting was addressed by B. K. Harrison Esq., of Stewart. Mr. J. C. Alford of Ala. and nicssrs. M. J. Crawford and W. F. Williams of this city. These gentlemen all acquitted themselves with great success—strongly imbued with the spirit of the theme, their stirring appeals were warmly re ceived by a sympathizing audience. The general prevalence of such feeling, and the meeting of such elements of indignation in many portions of our State, will raise a storm ill Georgia, that shal] sweep southward and leave, forever, the impress of its desolation upon Spanish despotism. [editorial correspondence.] Marietta, Aug. 29, 1851. The Journal & Messenger of Macon tusked the ‘Times’ some questions, which it evident ly thought were “posers” and pressed answers with the assurance that its editors, the ] e >- ple and “the rest of mankind” were exceed ingly desirous to see them. We answered them, when suddenly it was manifest that the readers of the Journal & Messenger had lost their anxiety to see them, for they have not been given to them in the columns of that paper, notwithstanding our earnest re quest and banter to publish them. Instead of gratifying its readers by supplying them with what they were so very solicitous to see, that paper makes an issue on a part of the an swer, and calls on us to meet it. We shall not take the trouble until those answers are published, which his people were a little while since, dying to see. Mr. Cobb is trarnpoosing through the Cherokee region, trying to harangue the peo ple into the belief that they have received full justice from this Government, and that he, as their representative did not betray his trust, and consent to a sacrifice of their rights. He makes the same speech ho made in Col umbus. He makes no new converts, but of ten loses a Union titan, who cannot digest his Federal readings ofthe Constitution. He will carry this section of the State, though not by the majorities his friends boast of. If the cotton belt stands tip well to its true interests, this vote of the up country can be neutralized and McDonald elected. The latter gains every day. lit spite of party, many people must see that the contest is a sectional one, and the subject matter is slave ry. And o i such an issue, then can 1 e l.ut two sides, the Northern and the Southern. — Mr. Cobb is on the Northern side, and every free soil vote in Georgia is soon to be polled for him ; .and of these, there are many more than is imagined. Wherever we go, we hear that the non-slaveholders and the poor men, tire constantly plied with the argument, that this is a question which only concerns the slaveholder, and will they give up this “glori ous Union” to preserve property in which they have no interest ? Here is the of an abolition party. Our knowledge of human nature instructs us, that there are the elc ments of such a party in every Southern Stiite. and that they have been kept out of sight, only by public opinion and fear. The present division of parties, in which one side boldly takes .he part ofthe North in a purely sectional issue, tends directly to develope those latent elements: and 1 consider, the ve ry worst feature of Mr. Cobb’s position and course, is to be found in the consequences to which I have alluded—to wit: in laying a broad foundation for an abolition party, which will at no distant day show itself and take a stand as tin important element in political ev ents. There is danger of this in nearly all the Southern States. In North Carolina an abolition meeting has been publicly held—l know of a distinguished gentleman of the mountains of Virginia who is actually mov ing South, because his position in an aboli tion neighborhood is disgusting to his South ern feelings. Upper South Carolina, Geor gia and Alabama, own but few slaves and contain a population upon which demagogues may and will operate in this wav. In Kentucky we have seen an emancipation candidate actually in the field and receiving several thousand votes for Governor. The duty and policy of slaveholders would seem to be obvious from a view of these alarming facts. The instincts of self preservation and patriotism should teach them a firm unioD and a bold front to make head against influences which may ruin them, drive them from their homes, desolate this country, and leave the misguided poor man and the freed negro to encounter the death grapple for supremacy and life. For at last, the poor man is to be the victim. The rich can run away—fly from scenes which will make a Hell on earth ; but the poor man will TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 9, 1851. be loft to an encounter which will open his eyes to the wicked delusion that he is to be benefitted by an annihilation of the competi tion of slave labor. He will then find, that it is slave labor that produces from the soil the wealth of the South, and that in the dis tribution of that wealth, he derives his share in enhanced wages and abundant employ ment I have met many South Carolinians travel ling in the up-country. They are unanimous in the opinion, that the election of Cobb and Foote, will be decisive of the action of Caro lina. They take the view I have often urged that Cobb's success will give a coup de grace to the co-operation party: and that the State will move with unanimity and solid col umn in separate action. Asa secessionist, I will not be sorry to see Cobb elected; while I believe, if the Southern Rights Party could get the complete control of three or four Southern States, that they would be able to enforce justice from the North for the past, and save the Union. On this subject, I have never had a doubt or misgiv ing. Indeed, during the compromise discus sions, Georgia alone, had the power to dic tate .a just and equitable settlement. And it is the sin of Cobb and the other submis sionists from the South who were entrusted with the cause ofthe South, and which cries to Heaven aud to an outraged people forven geanco. that with the power in their hands they 1 s y made a truce, as dishonoring as it was unjust. They threw w \ t'l t-pe rn of great price” which they hid in secure keep ing, had not ambition tempted them to sell it. They bartered away the rights of their con stituents, when fidelity and courage on their part would have immortalized themselves as patriots, saved their section from degradation and the Union from a blow which sooner or later will destroy it. I cannot contemplate the conduct of these men, otherwise, than with disgust. There is no solution to their conduct, but ambition. What meant all the p aer .about compromise ? What need had the South of a compromisel What did the South demand of the Government and her sister States, but. what she was clearly enti tled to? And why should Southern rtqtre sentatives, h tiding as their* constituents di , the very life-blood of the commerce,wealth & prosperity of this whole country, find it ne cessary to yield a jot of right, when they knew that the North would yield, not only that, but a great deal more to preserve a Union that is prolific of wealth a”d welfare to them. It was a cowardly surrender—it was ti wanton and uncalled for surrender. It was the base betrayal of a whole people, and a pure sacrifice of honor, duty, and interest to the National aspirations of a few heartless demagogues. And now, according, to sub mission boastings, the people of Georgia, are about to pass upon these acts, and heap honors on their betrayers. My poor country! How bitterly humiliating will it be, to hear the scornful laugh of the Northern fanatical crew, when they shall witness the self-con demning act of our own people; recording not only their submission to wrong, but their fol'y and stultification in rejoicing over their wrongs and crowding with their honors, tl e men who have betrayed them. Abolitionism may well rejoice and say—these people are our easy victims: they have not the virtue to defend their rights, nor the sense to know where they are attacked. But my pen is out running your space. F. MR. HILLIARD. In his speech on Friday night, to which we have already referred, he commenced by ex pressing the hope, that inasmuch, as the questions he was .about to discuss, were not confined to the limits of Alabama, his appear ance would not be deemed an intrusion—S:*l that he was opposed to sectional politics,— loved the whole country, even Now Hamp shire and Vermont. To till this we saw no objection if it was according to his taste, but concluded that if he was even n little sound upon the Southern question, and this fact was known in those States and others ofthe same cast, his love was not reciprocated. The next position assumed by him which we have space to notice, was that the late ad justment left the South upon higher ground respecting slavery, thau it had occupied for thirty years. His arguments in support of this position, were, such as have been urged a thousand times in the newspapers and on the stump & nothing more, and therefore, need not be specially referred to. Ile admitted that he had made a.speech in congress against the admission of California as a State, upon Gen. Taylors plan, because, according to that plan, no disposition for the present, was to be made of the territories of Utah and New Mexico: but that Mr. Fillmore’s pi in compensated for his objection to the admission of California with her free-snil constitution, in providing territorial governments- for Utah and New Mexico He insisted in another part of his argument, that w hen the people of a territory organized, as California had done, and formed a constitution prohibiting or not prohibiting slavery, congress was hound to admit them as a state; seeing to it, that the constitution was republican in its character. We leave it to the especial friends of Mr. Hilliard to say, whether so far, he is not fair ly presented. Reader: still keeping your eye upon the argument and admission of Mr. Hilliard, that California with a republican constitution in her hand, prohibiting or not prohibiting slave ry, had a right to demand admission, Con gress of course had no right to refuse. But lo! Mr. Hilliard tells you himself, that he made a speech against her admission . Why did he do it does he say ? Because she did not have the requisite amount of population ? No! Because her constitution was not re publican ? No! Because her constitution contained a clause inhibiting slavery ? No! But because the bill authorizing the admission of California, as a State, did not dispose of the Territories rs Utah and New Mexico. We | NUMBER 30 trust, in kindness trust, that Mr. Hilliard is not yet so far gone, that when acting under oath as a Legislator ,this was an answer, sufficient to satisfy his conscience, with his views of the right of California to admission. What had she to do with Utah and New Mexico? He had just as much right to say to California “I will vote for your admission, when Congres grants to the Mobile and Gi rard Rail Road, certain lands along the route. California had as much to do with the one as with the other. Taking no pleasure in holding any one as clever as Mr. Hilliard, iu a painful as well as an awkard position, we will allow’ him to shift it; to say that the grounds which he says he occupied in his Congressional speech against the admission of California, were not the real ones upon which his objection rested; ~ilnd that he was opposed to the measure be cause it was a scheme of the North to cheat and rob the South, by excluding slaveholders from the Territory of California until it could be filled up with Northern people op posed to the institution of slavery, what them is the compensation which he admits he ac cepted for the South in consideration of her exclusion from California ? The establish ment of Territorial governments for Utah and New Mexico and the dismemberment of Texas. While singing the praises of Mr. Fillmore, he denounced Mr. l’olk, a Southern man , for signing the Oregon territorial bill containing the Wilmot Proviso—knowing well that he did so, solely in consideration of the Missouri compromise line, & under protest, & that he would have vetoed any bill, applying any proviso to the territory, below that line; & knowing also, that Mr. Fillmore would have sanctioned any bill, applying it to any, or all of the territories, acquired from Mexico aud Texas. Add to this the fact, that Mr Hilliard, on the 24th day of July 1848, made a long, labored and elegant speech, against Mr. Polk, and the exercise of the veto power gsnerally Add again, to this, that in the same speech he ad vocated the extension of the Missouri Compromise line, through the territories acquired from Mexico, and the friends of Mr. Hilliard, have a glaring picture of a good man, distorted mid conscious— wrecked by drawing in the traces, assigned him, by mere party organization. According to Mr. Hilliard's ow n position, if the Mexican law against slavery, in those territories remains unrepealed, which he seem ed indisposed to deny; Southern men can carry’ their slaves there in safety', as soon as the people of those territories shall pass laics to establish slavery. Now the people of any of the free States, can just as easily pass laws establishing slave rv as can the people of those territories ; that is, when their respective majorities are in fa vor of it. Mr. Hilliard was violent against the Wil mot proviso by name, and equally’ as violent in the advocacy of all the principles of its very essence. For he advocates the admission of California with all her unfitness in several other respects for admission, but with a clause in her constitution (higher than law') exclud ing the real owmers of the soil from the en joyment of it, in consideration of their ex clusion also, from the territories of Utah and New Mexico, until the people now upon them, and those from the North to w'hom alone the door is open, all opposed to slavery shall divest themselves of their prejudices and vote to establish it. According to the best showing that. Mr Hilliard can make the difference between the Wilmot proviso and the late adjustment is justthis. Thefirstwould exclude slavery from the territories until they should become slave States, and then they would establish slave ry if they should choose to do so. The oth er has already done so permanently in California or until the people choose to alter their Constitution—and in the territories of Utah and New Me :ico until the free soil pop ulation on them, shall pass laws establishing slavery. Mr. Hilliard’s defence of the dismemberment of Texas was too fu gitive to be caught without an expendi ture of words, as great as that in money, ne cessary to success under the fugitive law.— He diil not even allude to the ten millions which the South mainly paid, in considera tion of the loss of territory. With a hop, skip and a jump, he passed ov er the abolition of the slave trade in the dis trict of Columbia and passed on into ecsta sies over the fugitive slave law and the glori ous Union. He seemed to be familiar with the “masked battery.” In the same speech Mr. Hilliard said, (speaking against the Clayton Compromise,) “I object again, to this compromise, because it is no settlement of the question; and again, (speaking in reference, to what might be the decision of the’ Supreme Court, as to the existence of the Mexican law against slavery,) he says, “But if the decision should be favorable to the North, as it is almost universally eonceded it would be, how could we face our con stituents, after having given our support to a bill, which surrendered the very rights, we were ex pected to guard Hero it is scon that lie planted himself, iqxin the ground, that he would oppose every measure, that did not provide for a settlement of the ques tion, and that the Mexican law was of force. Os course then, he looks upon the Late adjustment, as a settlement of the question, with the Mexican laWj in force in the territories referred to—and Mr. Hilliard lias learned how to face his constitu ents, “after having given his support to a bill, which surrendered the very rights, he was expected to guard.” But when he sees the deformity, and monstrosity of his apology for the ruinous and de graded surrender, thus exposed, he will give loud, and hasty expression, to an afterthought, and ex claim, “oh! it is not such a settlement as will pre vent ns from applying to the people of those terri tories, to repeal the Mexican law against slaverv and if they should do so, the southern people can then go there with their property. Yes Mr. Hilliard, we can get into California, and Vermont, with our slaves in the same way. MR. COBB AND THE DISTRICT OF CO LUMBIA The act of Congress, to emancipate slaves in the District of Columbia, one of the glorious compro mise acta!!! is justified and defended, by Mr. Cobb, upon the ground first, that the emancipa- tion feature of the aot, is taken from the Law Os Maryland, and secondly, because the State of Georgia, in the exercise of an unquestioned power, prohibited the introduction of slaves into a m* State, for sale under certain and con clude* his very abort notice of thra destructive measure, by saying, that there, was but one f&s* in the District on the subject. V V The reasoning is this, that bedkßee Maryland may rightfully exercise the power of aholiahinfl slavery within her limits, and Georgia prohibit tbs introduction of slaves ithin her limits, therefore, Congress may* rightfully exercise the same pow within tlie District of Columbia. This view of tbs powers of Congress is in perfect accordance with the old Federal construction of the constitution, but has only recently found supporters in Georgia. Mr. Cobb, however, and Mr. Johnson and others of the Constitutional Union Party, have been drl ven by their |>arty affiliations to sustain it. M e hold that a State, while in the Union, can rightfully exercise every power, and authority, not expressly delegated by her own sovereign aot, to her agent, the Federal government, tliat among these reserved, or undelegated powers, is that of legislating upon the property of her citizens.— Therefore, a State, if it be the will of her people, may abolish slavery within her jurisdiction, or pro hibit the introduction of any species of property, within her limits. We hold, further, that Congress has no origi nal, self existing “power—that the Federal govern ment can do nothing, except the power is express ly delegateel te> it, by the States. Tliat the power to abolish slavery or emancipate slaves as a penalty up on the slave holder, lias never been delegated by the Stab's to Congress, and that the exercise of such a power is an unauthorized assumption on tho part of Congress, and a violation of the constitution. We hold that tlie States never supposed they were delegating this important, distinct and sub stantive power, of abolishing slavery in tho district of Columbia, when they authorized Congress to ex ercise exclusive legislation in all cases whatever, in the District of Columbia, and over all places, pur chased for forts, magazines, ar enals, dock yard* and other needful buildings in all the Stages. We hold that “in all cases whatever,” in whioh Congress could constitutionally legislate, that the power to legislate should be exclusive. If other wise, and the power to legislate for the places men tioned, be unlimited, then Mr. Johnson’s doctrine is true, that Congress may ereet a monarchy over the territories, or the United States. If it be true, then Congress in the exercise of the powers “to make all laws, which shall be nec essary and proper for carrying into exeoution the foregoing powers,” might judge it. necessary and proper to abolish slavery in tlie State of Georgia, for the purpose of enabling them to execute the power of abolishing it at. the forts jand arsenals, at Savannah and Augusta. Do not say that these arguments are strange, or far fetched, Abolition, ists,fanatics and extreme party men, as our expe rience aud observation show us, will never st'ckl* at the exercise of a power, even upon the most violent construction, wlien r they can gratify thair feelings, or accomplish their purposes. Rather let us distrust the honesty of Southern men who become their apologist*. [Correspondence of the New York Herald.J Washington Aug. 19,1851. The Gubernatorial Contests in Georgia —Another Blow at the Union Party*— The Gardner Claim Letters have just been received from Georgia from compromise men, in which they express the fear that Howell Cobb, their candidate, will be defeated by his opponent for the office of Governor, General McDonald. Two months age his prospects were bright and flattering, but the entrance ofthe Fillmore whigs of New York into Governor Seward’s house, through the back door, has dis gusted the Union men of Georgia, and lei them to believe that the great Castla Garden Union outshoot wasa mere me teor, intended to dazzle and blind but for the moment. We now find that the South will be less inclined than ever to credit mere Northern professions. The fact is, there hasbeentoo much humbug practised by hunker politicians; and the people, apart from them, must be look ed into the hour of trial to sustain the constitution. It is well known that Howell Cobb sus tains the compromise measures of the last Congress, and that Governor Mc- Donald opposes them. However, the latter is opposed to separate secession by the Slate of South Carolina; but, on a recent occasion, he said, **a large number of people in other States, who think with Carolina,thatthe wrongs ofthe government are scarcely endurable, are unwilling to resort to so strong a meas ure of resistance. Is it not a matter well worthy to be considered by S. Caro lina whether it isnot bestto deler to the opinions of her sister States, equally wronged with herself, and whose sym pathy she has, and not proceed, separ ately and alone, to a measure of at least questionable expediency? If the hopes of other States are realized, and tho Government returns to a due respect for the rights of the South, and a faith ful administration of the constitution, I most respectfully ask if it is not better to remain as we are, a united people?— I think so, decidedly; for all we want is a faithful administration ofthe tinn, It will give us all our rights.— I confess that my fears are that those hopes are without solid foundation. But it is a matter that time must decide, and a decision will soon be made. If made against the constitutional rights of our people, we shall be as one man, in any measure necessary to the safety and hap piness of all havingacommon interest,” This is the ground on which not only General Me Donald, but all the South erners stand. ]From the N. O. Delta.] LOPEZ’S MOVEMENTS, Eds. Delta : I take the liberty of sub mitting the following for your perusal, hoping it may be thought worthy of in sertion. Gen. Lopez, it is alleged, abandoned Col Crittenden’s command. It strikes me the following is as probable a conclu sion to come to, in the absence of cer tainty, as any yet urged. Gen. Lopez leaves Col. Crittenden with a rear guard and baggage escort, of 114 picked men, at the point of de barkation, himself advancing to Las Po~ zas, which he occupies, and sends means of transportation, or wagons, to his rear guard. On the 13th he engages the troops drives them in, andsendsan order to the escort to join him without delay, and to hurry up. Lopez leaves in or near Las Pozas his wounded, fully persuaded that Crittenden’s command, when ad vanning, would take along his wounded with the baggage, and takes up march for the mountains, but by some means he finds his rear guard is endangered, his bag gage likely to be lost, and what does he then do 1 Save himself by the forced marches to the mountains! No such thing. He abandons the advantages he has stolen from the Spanish commander in a day’s march in advance, —he re turns to Las Pozas, —he advances to re lieve his rear guard, and to bring them off, —he has another engagement with the royal troops, now reinforced by 800 fresh forces and artilley.-beats them back to Cayajolas, about half way be tween Las Pozas and the walls of Ha vana, where, most likely, be heard that the command of Crittenden had put to sea; and then Gep .Lopez finds that he has need of all his generalship, to mask his letreat. and get as gooda start for the mountains again, is the one he hsd
