tv rallying outcry against the South. They
affected not to know, to disbelieve as fanci
ftil, or to despise if, real, the and ingers of their
course; the bold bully of anti-slavery defied
to his fice the eloquent apostle of Union, and
defied him with impunity.
The newspaper editorials, with exceptions
few and far between, merged in the common
current; at last it has become quite manifest
(has it not? And why repress our convic
tions?) that the expectation fondly indulged,
of tranquilizing the country by the legislative
measures, is delusive. The act for the extra
'dition of fugitives is the pretext for protract
ed and persevering war upon the guaranties
erf the Constitution; and if we are to raise
the sjige to which that instrument is still sub
jected, can wc do better th in reinforce it from
the arsenal, and with the orders of the peo
ple? I desire nothing so much as the safety
of the Union. Place it beyond the striking
distance of cunning as well as mad fanaticism.
Do this, if yon can. without resorting to the
final remedy; but, if you cannot, then give to
the Constitution an express, positive -prohibi
tory amcnimenl, which shall forever END the j
entanglemonts and pretexts of interpretation.
But what, you may ask, if this doubtful ]
and dilatory course should prove abortive?— \
Much time and opportunity will have been af- |
forded. Congress, the executive, and the peo- i
pie will have perceived that the resources of
the constitution for the defence of State rights
were patiently exhausted, and may become
sensible that a single further step of invasion
will, liko the last feather on the camels back,
break down the confederacy. At all events,
♦ho responsibility of pertinaciously perverting
sfter reiterated warning; the functions of the
Union will, even more strongly than now,
r'et with those who dare gravely claim to do
mineer the condition and consciences of oth
ers. In3toed of forbearing remonstrance, of
reasoning, and of appeals to the bulwark of
the fundamental compact, the quick instinct
<r? self-preservation will alono be loft. Even
at that crisis, when disunion, partial or tem
porary, shall seem the alternative on which
to ebun consolidation, l shall not ccaao to
hope that fiction may yet bo stunned into so
briety, and that the confronting presence of
liberty and usurpation may, in this western
world of ours, terrify the latter into retreat.
I do not think that I misjudge my country
men ir. saying, that tho party m the wrong
ttsas!. ultimately yield; but it is well to re
raembor, that in order to retain the position
wf right, extreme forbearance is necessary,
uni that perhaps gross oppression may for a
season be most honorably borne. In con
tests of speculative politics, a salutary some
thing can always do anticipated from the
frothing and influence of
ti pe. To liing the gauntlet while yet the
civil controversy is undecided; to mutiny
from, and quit a garrison within which, you
may really have more friondu than foes, is
chivalry of the kind painted by Cervantes.—
Napoleon, the restive an! intractable, ownod
ca 1 inculcated, as to all projects, the wisdom
of waiting “till the pear is ripe,'’ and not imi
tate the who cuts down tho troe to
reach the fruit. Southern men whose faith
srsvers in the meaning and purpose of tho
Constitution, as to State equality and non-in
torrontion, are naturally made testy an l chol
eric by their own misgivings; but it is the
province of conscious justice and perfection
to be patient, aad to abide tho inevitable tri
umph of truth. Nor ought it to be forgotten,
that, however, convenient and admissible in
crdim!".’ parlance the language i., there aro
r,.vkr th> Constitution no such separate rc
alit-.ee as “Southern Rights;’’ that an outrage
frpou reserved sovereignty, on any subject, is

A citizen who truly estimates and
doves tho Union, who is capable of
comprehending that to the) domestic
h&nqttility and enduring freedom of the
American people, itis a political neces
sity, fuels as sensitively a inflicted upon
en'o great interest or region as upon an
other, upon the fisheries, the navigation
of tno Mississippi, the liberty of the seas,
the freedom of the press, or the local
sovereignty over soil and slavery. The
right to fnh is no more northern than
southern; the right which was in mo
mentaary jeopardy at Ghent, of exclu
sive use of the waters of the Mississppi,
Is no more western than eastern and the
right not to bo impressed by British na
val audacity was cherished alike in the
fields of Kentucky and on the Atlantic
coast, and so I tell you that the right of
each State to be accounted an equal of
every State, and to secure, if she so
pleases, to her inhabitants the enjoy,
ment of as ample and unrestricted a
scope for the exercise oftheir minds and
means as can be secured elswhera, is
not a sectional, not a Southern, but a
common union or constitutional right.—
Bueh, I am sure, was the design of all
those who, as master workman, built
on the basis of the confederation, the
f 7tritcd States; such I believe to have
been the sense of those who, after the
most widely popular form of consula
tion, accepted the strueturi ind entered
npon its occupancy, and such must be,
for the truth is mignty and will prevail,
the ultimate jodgpnent even of those
who, with the biggoted frenzy of crusa
ders, would attain what their delirium
deceives them by depicting as the “will
of God.”
And now, my dear sir, having, I fear,
tediously and” imperfectly met your
comprehensive question, let me advert
to your intimati n that you desire to
publish my answer. It is unpleasant to
oe thought shy of avowing one’s senti
ments, but it is, perhaps, more unpleas
ant tube obtruding, as if important, op
inions which may be at once stigmatiz
ed as symtorns of the prevalent epide
mic for candidateship. I have scrupu
lously abstained, sincequiting the Vice
residency in IS4O, from invoking polit
ical notice, and this upon a variety of
motives, some of domestic duty, some
distaste for the implied competition,
some of different reluctance, to seem,
by even a share, to differ from abler
better men, and some from a seda
tive suspicion that matters would in all
likelihood roll on to their destination
as well without aswith me. Unless,
that the ideas in this latter are such as
may be, without a particle of reference
to their bearing on myself, substantially
useful to the country or the democratic
party, I hope you will abstain from any
sort of promulgation. Owing you a re
turn for the visit which you were kind
enough to pay me in May last, 1 shall
fool perfectly satisfied if what I have
written be acceptable to you alone, and
convince you how truly and respectfully

From Mexico.
The New Orleans papers have accounts
from the city of Mexico to the 28th ult.
National affairs are in apparently inextrica
ble confusion. Numerous but unsuccesssful
efforts had been made to* form a cabinet A
conducta which left San Louis for Catorce
in charge of twenty soldiers, was attacked
by over a hundred robbers and robbed.
The Spanish residents of the city of Mex
ice had raised $5,000 to be contributed to
the support of the families of the Spanish
soldiers who fell iu the battles with Gen. Lo
pex.
The Espcranza of Guadalajara published a
letter from Mazatlan, which says that a force
of more than a thousand Americans hid in
vaded the Mexican territory from California.
They had crossed the frontier of Sonora, and
demanded permission from the State Govern
ment to work the mines which they found
there. The Trait d'Union doubts the truth
of this rumor
A letter from Havana, to some person in
the city of Mexico, to which reference is
made in the Siglo, gravely asserts that an
American vessel had arrived at Havana for
the purpose of offering repntation to Spain
for the outrages committed during the riots
in this city, and payment for the damages
sustained by the Spanish residents. Tiie lat
ter says that the American Government had
requested the Spanish Consul to ■ return in
the ship-of-war referred to, stating that he
would be received here by the authorities,
that the Spanish flag would be raised and sa
luted with 20 guns. Besides, he would be
conducted by the authorities to his residence
from which the Spanish ting would wave for
three days, and that, before being unfurled
the criminals who had desecrated it would be
forced to go on their knees and kiss it. Like
wise every night, for three days, the portrait
of the Queen of Spain would be carried round
the streets, accompanied by a procession of
the people and the authorities; and that the
losses incurred by the Spanish citizens here,
as well as the price of the Union printing of
fice, would be paid out of the pubiic treasur
y. After this the ringleaders of the riots
would be placed on board the vessel-of-war
and taken to Washington for their punish

Great Speed. —The steamer Calhoun,
Capt. Barden arrived at her wharf yesterday
morning at 2) minutes after l i o’clock. She
left Savannah at a quarter before 5, thus ac
complishing the run between the two cities
in the unprecedented short time of 6 hours
and 35 minutes—being we believe, the. short
est passage ever made from Savannah to this
city. This was performed notwithstanding
the necessity of descending the Savannah
river at a slow speed in consequence of leav
ing before Daylight. It is supposed that the
run conld have been performed in six hours
had the steamer been put to her greatest
power from the very start.— Charleston Mar
cury.
see by the New York papers
that a meeting in behalf of the women
who live bv the use of the needle, was
held in N. York on Monday week. It
was stated at the meeting that the wo
men who work at shirts for the large
manufacturing establishments receive
for their labor only from five to thir y
cents for each garment. This is theex
treme of the prices. Cheap shop shiri -
are made“at from eight to ten cents each
The very best shirts cost from thirty.one
to fifty cents.
The shirts-sewers of New York num
ber several thousand, mainly young wo
men; but there are many widows and
wives of drunken or disabled husbands
who depend entirely on this sort of la
bor for a subsistence.
It seemsjjto us that those who labor
this way must be in very destitute con
dition—for how many shirts of the com
monest sort, which receive the reward
ot five cents each, can be made within
a day by*a smart and industrious wo
man?
The great object of the world now
seems to be to get things cheap. Does
it never occur to those who go into our
shops here in Mobile and haggle abou
the price of a shirt or course'pants or
coat—that this cheapness is
o tained mainly at the sacrifice of these
poor women—not only of these of New
York, but those who have a starving ex
istence every where? The society which
demands shirts and so forth at a cost
which allows only five cents for their
fabrication, is oppressing the poor—for
sellers of shirts, iu the vast competition
which exists, must keep the poor au
thors of shirts at the nearest living con
tiguity to starvation But what remedy
is there for it? We can see none, ex
cept a refusal to make shirts so cheap
and that m'y involves a choice of bso
lute, instead of partialstarvation. It is
a result of the modern social condition,
which 1 ot even Fourierism offers a reme
dy for. But, necessiry or not, one can
only express sadness over the condem
nation of so many innocent, weak and
helpless women to this dreadful condi
tion of eternal dalliance widt famine—
and that, too, in the midst of cities
where monopoly clothes so many in tine
linen and purple, and provides feasts
whose superabundance their owners
can bring no appetites to. —[Mobile Tri

| Democracy.—The following is Judge Head's
| idea of Democracy expressed many years ago:
[ “ Democracy presents itself for approval upon
I the sole ground of truth and reason. It speaks to
j the honesty and intelligence of mankind. It
i has no argument for the understanding but the
native truth and grandeur of its own principles
and no appeals to the affections except its spotless
morality and elevated purity of purpose. I: is the
perfection of reason, and may be aptly described
j as the human action, excited by goodness of mo
tive and guided and directed by truth and princi
ple. Like the Christian religion, leaving the gor
geous trappings of splendid ceremony, a stupid
pomp to conceal error or dignify folly, it shines
forth in the simple light of truth, to win and bless
the human family. ‘Do you unto others as you
would have them do unto you’ carried as a rule of
action into social and political organizations form
ing the base of government, as w -11 as the spirit ill
law,constituting Democracy. Observed at all times,
and carried into complete effect, it would convert
earth into a paradise. It ennobles, elevates and
equalizes all. It equalizes, not by degradation, but
by elevation. It confers sovereignty upon all—
makes the people sovereigns—conferring equal
rights upon the whole. Each ind.vidual possess
es equal political rights, and equal rights to aequ're
and possess property. The choice of government,
the adoption of laws, and their execution ; is but
the will and action of the governed.”
The P. Master at Eofaula.—We notice
that the President has removed Mr. J. H. Dar
forth from the Post Office in this place, and
appointed Benj. Gardner Esq., editor of the
Shield in his place. Mr. Danforth was a
mostefficient and popular officer, and his
sole offence has been his refusal to be the
instrument in circulating abolition documents ;
through the Post office. Nine-tenths of
those interested in the office were opposed to j
his removal. A meeting has been called to
take place at the Town Hall, in that place, ;
this evening, ‘-to take into consideration the j
recent outrage committed by the Abolition
Government at Washington) on the citizens
of fiufaula, by the removal of the late Post
Master.”— Columbus (fra.) Sentinel.

It was proposed at the same time and place to

CRUMBS OF COMFORT.
Some of our secession cotemporarits seem to
comfort themselves under their crushing defeat,
with scraps from the papers of other States. The
Mercury, for instance, stretches out its lontr arms
to its brother in affliction, the Columbus Times,
and, all in good season, the hitter pops, in a word
of consolation, to be- reprinted here. We all know
that the favorable influence of the Times was
greatly diminished in Georgia,in consequence of its
fellowship with the Mercury and its politics, and
now, when their time of weeping has come, we
must expect that their tears will be mingled to
gether.—Chas. Standard.
So speaks the Charleston Standard, the co-ope
ration, disunion organ of Charleston. If the Mer
cury and Times can take comfort in mingling
their teara, we are better o.T th in the Standard ;
for it does appear to us, that when the Standard
looks out from its watehtower to discern a speak
on the horizon comforting to its views and plans,
its eye must encounter naught but a barren waste.
Co-operation to dissolve the union ! Heaven bless
us! This is certainly a spirit from the deep that
wont come at the. Standard’s bidding. We too
have been laboring for the co-operation of the
South in resistance to Northern aggression. We
have failed and have given up ail hope of obtain
ing; and further, we have given up all thoughts’
of trying to get it. South Caroline has driven the
last nail in the coffin of Southern Resistance to
the^eompromise; and it is qu’tu clear that the
Co-operation party of Carolina acted as undertaker
on the occasion. We say, stare decisis —and aha!
never wag our pen again in opposition to the com
promise. There is neither fun nor profit in dart
ing straws against tha wind. An l we can tell
our able Charleston co-temporary, if that is its
object-, it may as well give over the work. The
whole South has decided to submit to the com
promise from Maryland to Texas, and alas! in
cluding South Carolina. We know that the
Standard will not subscribe to this opinion. In
respect to South Carolina, anl will toil us that
the co-opcrat’onists are disunion’sts, but not by
the road of seperate secession. Doubtless this is
true in respect to the Standard and a branch of ts
party; but, has not the Standard called into being
a union p- rtv w’rlrii the Palmetto borders, that will
not be moulded into disunion shapes? W 11 th
spirit it Ins evoked under th’- name of co-opera
tion. be ow int Its bi Iding her after ?
But, ii our‘‘f-dloiVih p with the Mercury and
its politics” have diminished our favorable influ
ence in Georgia—query? would it have been sen
sibly increased by fellowship with the Standard ?
The unpardonable sin in Georgia ivcs to b<
against the uu’on; and the Standard supports
dissolution pr'ne’ples quite as strongly aa the Mer
cury. Now, tiie truth is, we differ with both tin
Mercury and Standard in this —that we never
went for disunion per sc. We have only advo
ate l the principle of secession and its practical
use, ns a measure of protection—as a measure that
we h ive never for aa instant doubted would have
brought the Government to a pause—to do jus
tice, to reform the administration and to secure
the South in tiie union. One Southern State,
taking the step with unselfish and heroic firmness
couid have accomplished the great work. That
State, we had hoped would be Carolina. She
would ha e covered herself w th glory, saved the
South end perpetuated the union. This is pre
cisely the doctrine of Mr. Paulding, whose letter
the Standard so lvghly commends. We never
have believed that disunion was necessary to save
the South. But we have believed and do still
believe, that a settled conviction in the Northern
mind that the South would secede from the ccn’
federacy unless full justice was meted to her, was
necessary'to save both tlto South and tho union _
We have honestly labored to force this conviction
on the North by the union of tiie South. We
have failed, and we now waJ.t our hands of it.—
When the South gets’ready to make a fight for
her rights, if we are alive, we shall be with her
I In the meantime, being forced to remain in the
union on the hard and unequal terms of the com
promise, we must do the bert we can under the
duress, and act with that party which comes
nearest to oiu'toandarJ of justice to the South.

Defining a Position.— The Marion (Ala.)
Commonwealth, was the only Whig piper of
Alabama that espoused the Southern cause in the ,
late canvass. That paper announces its acquies
cence in the decision of the South, and adds ;ha
hereafter it will fight the ba:t!e o? th-- South on
the Democratic platform. The editor > ,s
“For our own part, we see nothin t tt t i
to fall back upon the Democrat c p : , i
assist in making the principles of the Deo r-c e 1
party the prominent policy of the country. For a
limitation of the powers of the Federal Govern
ment an opposition to that bane of ;he South—
hitrh protective tariff, and a ma ntainanee of the *
doctrine of State Rights, we can look alone to the j
democratic party. Acting upon this conviction, ;
the result of our best judgment, we take our stand
upon the Democratic platform, for weal or for
woe.
The whig party of the South is virtually <iis-
organized. It can never make another stand up
on its principles, and the measures for which it
has contended for years. The leaders of the party
see this, and their effort now is, to keep up the
false issue they presented during the last canvass,
of “ Union” and “ Disunion,” and upon that to
fight the next presidential campaign. With such
jugglery we shall take neither part nor lot.”
From the Savannah Sew*.
The Muscogee Railroad.
We had the plensuse yesterday of an intei*
view with Mr. J. D. Gray, of the firm of John
D. Gray & Cos., contractors on the “Muscogee
Rtdlfoad.” This Muscogee Road, as perhaps j
our readers are aware, commences at Colum
bus, in this State, and proceeds Eastward!?,
50 miles, when it will connect with the South
Western Railroad, at a place called the “Wolf
Pens,” situated near the three corners of the
Counties of Marion, Talbot and M aeon, not J
far from the head waters of White Water
Creek, from whence the South Western Rail
road Company, under special aid from the
city of Savannah and the Central Railroad,
are construsting a branch road of 22 miles, to
their main road at Fort Valley.
From Mr. Gray we learn that the Musco
gee Rood is progressing in good spirit, and
that 20 miles of the road, leading from Col
umbus, will be open o:i the tenth day of next
month and that from the temporary terminus
stages will connect with Barnesville and Ocle
thorpe. Mr. Gray is of opinion that, bv this
time next year, the whole line w ill be open
the Fort Valley, when passengers can pass
from this city to Columbus in 15 hours.
The importance of a connection by railroad with
Columbus cannot be overrated by <ur citizens. It
will open to us an extensive new trade, while it
will give to Columbus an immense advantage, by
affording her speedy access, at all limes, to one of
the largest and best cotton markets in the Union.
It is well known that the business men of Cohun
bus arc subjected to great inconvenience by the
uncertainty of the river navigation between that
city and Apalachicola, their only outlet to the
board. Iu dry seasons, when the Chattahoochee
is low, vast amounts of cotton are compelled toli
in the Columbus warehouses for months, to tha
serous injury and inconvenience of both th# mer
chant and tho planter, and even * ith a good boat
ingm-.ver, the freights to and from Columbus ar*
oblige to traverse tho mesndermgs of tiie river, a
distance ot some 400 miles. The opening of tha
railroad connection between this city and Colum
bus will make-this the most aeovssiislo outlet for
Columbus trade, which, notwithstanding the ob
stacle wo have meut.oned, :* daily grewim* in im
portance.
We learn from Mr. Gray, whose firm also has
a contract on the Attgus'a and Waynesboro KaT
road, that ;hat work,’although it has thus far from
uuavo dab.e c reumstaiu-es progre*aod rather slow
ly; j s n,,w oil with vigor, and that a ponies
ot t.ie road will son be open. From other •# ir
ces, wc have hear! much of the superior eharss
ter of this road. Forty mik Ban hour can* be mad#
on it. and we predict a ride from this to A* -#t*
within 18 months, in 5 hours time —Sro Y- wi

Off” The “New York Tribune” thus dis
courses on South Carolina submission. Tni
iy have frec-soilers and abolitionists the right
to jeer and sneer at Southern chivalry; who
can blame them for it? In view of recent
events at the South, if the Northern people
permit us to enjoy any material portion of
our personal or political rights, it will cer
tainly be a mark of magnanimity and forbear
ance for which we have not heretofore given
them credit:
“The people, even of South Carolina,
though they may grumble at this or that act
of Congress or exhibition of Northern senti
ment, are at heart attached to the Union, and
do not mean to leave it. The cannon which

The telegraph brings us the news that
Judge Sharkey, of Mississippi, has received
the place of Consul at Havana, vice Owens
of Georgia, removed for impertinently presu
ming that the President meant what he said
when he denounced the Cuban adventurers
as pirates and outlaws:—or rather, for stupid
ly supposing that the President would bear
the responsibility of what was discovered to
be an unpopular act, when he had the choice
of fastening it upon a subordinate. We have
no sympathy for Mr. Owens. Ha was, to all
appearance; the medium by which Georgia
was paid for deserting the South. He is now
paid in his own coin,--betrayal raid deser
tion.

Consul Owen's Conduct.
• Capt. Kelly, one of the iibr tod Cuban
1 prison-era. I*?-, h published the foi lowing aeon rg
ing letter, in r-.iVremte to the left. r of Mr.
i Owen, in which ho attempts toe.xculpatc hiai-
I si if from biaiue for his neglect of the priso
ners:
Dear Sir.—l seen letter going the rounds
of the newspapers from Alien F Owen. U S.
Consul at Havana. Permit me, through the
columns of your paper, to correct some of
his statements in regard to his conduct to
wards Col. Crittenden's command, anti other
American prisoner’s since confined in the
Puutaat Havana. In tin-first place-, lie says:
“I reside about four miles from this place,
and not being well on the morning of the ISih
did not reach my office till s .-me time after
10 o’clock, where, for the first time, I heard
of the capture of about fifty of the men who
had come with Lopez to this island in the
steamer Pampero. 1, at the same time, heard
that the prisoners had been tried, found guil
ty, condemned, ordered to be executed, the
order for their execution sent forward, and
and that they were about being removed from
the harbor, where they were, to the place of
execution.”
This is the most, perfect collection of false
hood I ever met with, and is only equaled in
absurdity by the audacity ofthe man in thus
attempting to justify his conduct through the
American press. He does not live four miles
out of town, nor was he sick at the time re
ferred to. He did know in time of the ar
rest of Col. Crittenden and his party, and was
sent for by them, and positively refused to sec
them, on the score that they were outlaws.
The American, German and English citizens
resident at Havana, will testify to this when
ever called upon.
The American Consul's .assertion that the
prisoners had been tried, found guilty and
i condemned,is a falsehood that every man in
: the United States, at all acquainted with
Spanish law and rule, must see at once. It
. is not the custom to try prisoners in Havana
other than by the garrote or by shooting in
I riio back, which Mr. Owen knew at the time
ho penned his letter, as well as the Governor
General did himself, and; judging irorn Mr.
Owen’s conduct, I should think he was more
in dread in gettingin prison himself than anx
ious to get others out. The Governor Gen
eral exercises great influence over cowardly
wretches lHe Allen F. Owen, no matter what
country they may hail from. Hence 1 ac
count, in a great measure, for his neglect of
duty in pdrmitting the Americans to be shot.
With regard to the other prisoners, his
conduct is equally outrageous. When I
reached the prison I found eight or ten of
my comrades there, and they all said that
the Consul had not been to see them. I al
so sent the same evening, by an American
Merchant at Havana, to Mr. Owen, and he re
fused to come, saying that our own Govern
ment did not recognize us. When Capt.
Platt of the sloop-ot-'.var Albany visited us, I
sent to Mr. Owen by him, and he again re
fused to come.
Then Lieut. Taylor of the Albany, said he
would “make him come,” and the next morn
ing Mr. Owen paid us a visit with Capt.
Platt. As he came in the Americans gath
ered around him and ho backed through the
door and held conversation with us with the
grates intervening. I then asked him to as
sist me in corresponding with my friends in
the United States, lie refused to help me
and said 1 would be sent to Spni n.
Many <_-f the prisoners then gave up a!:
hopes of assistance from the American Con
sul, and threw themselves on the protection
of Mr. Crawford, tin* British Consul. Two
of th; Mississippi volunteers, Arne: want, e til
ed themselves Irishmen, if! order to obtain
assistance from the English Consul.
After I wmt released, and while remaining.
on board the ship Nonna, the American Con
sol asked a friend of mine from New Or- .
leans, if I kuew why i was released. My
friend said no. Mr. Owen th-n said, that he
did not want the credit or the blame of uiy re
lease to rest upon him.
My object in publishing this Liter, is to i
defend the reputation of my gallant coippan- j
panions now ;n prison, by refuting the false- !
hoods in M.-• Owens letter, and to show the )
American people the true character of their I
Consul at Havana.
Will the papers that have publish and Mr.
Owen’s letter gi* e thisa place in th—ir col

Canee, devoted in part, t > Foote
and Cobb, and other Democrats who
rave gone off into the “Union” organ

is ntai ilesiiy affected with some appre
hensions, hinted rather than distin cly
expressed, that these gentlemen may
not return to the Democratic fold, and
/a with tne part v into a Baltimore Con
vention. It dues not consider them “ab
solved from the responsibility which
properly attaches to their previous
public career,” now that the “emergen
cy has passed away which rendered
necessary their co-operation” with tho>
Whig*. It i> thoroughly averse to the
creation of a third party, and discards
the suggestion, that “the Democratic
party may be absorbed by a perman
ent Union party in the South.” It af
fects to treat as “chime; ical” “the in
timation that Messrs. Cobb and Foote
will not hereafter act with the Democrat
ic party, or come into Convention with
the National Democratic party, to elect
candidates for the Presidency, or Vice
Presidency.’’ Yet it is manifest that
he Union has its fears on this point,
Even its eyes have at length opened
upon indications, to which it was im
possible to remain blind. It now pro
bably sees that in pairing these gentle
men on the back, and aiding them to
overthrow the Democratic and Southern
Bights party, it has done something
more than assist in bringing about the
defeat of the opponents of the Com
promise;— it has actually done what it
could, to give a triumph to the Federal
Whigs ofthe South—a triumph to result
we fear, in permanent advantage to the
Federal party. It is high time that press
was calling'back to the Democratic
standard its Southern friends. It re
mains to be seen whether they will an
swer, and obey the call. n U r readers
know full well what our anticipations
are, as to their future course. We pro
phecy that they will not go into the

We suppose the Legislature will hardly feel au
thorized to take th’s }x)ll as an indication of the
w.she# of the people. It shows, if it shows any
thing, that the people do not care a groat about it.
The Legislature will have to take the decision of
the question on its own wisdom. If they give the
election to the people, let it be by general ticket:
otherwise we shall be infested with a race of small
politicians on the bench. The General Ticket
will command the ability and character of the bar.

In one of its aspects, a more important State

the Union. Such a victory will come “with heal
ing on its wings.” We may then predict with
confidence the return of that peace and tranquili
ty which have been banished from our country
ever since 1835, when the unfortunate agitation
commenced. Each State will then manage its
own domestic concerns in its own manner, without
any impertinent interference front its neighbors.
The constitutional rights ofthe Southern States
will then be acknowledged and vindicated by their
Northern sisters, and we shall continue to be a
great, prosperous and united confederacy the

world. Yours very respectfully,

LINGS.
Sadly, how ssdly the night nier.s (
A the wintry blast r.veops by’;
Solcr.n., ho.v solemn its dying muss.
As it murmurs away to a sigh.
S-.riti, ho.- v>n will ite voice be i
lU mournful f-p:r;t depart :
But long, ho-.v li-ng must bre.a;!:;- alaite,
‘Hie wail of the broken heart.
Rally, how sadly the widow’d b:.’<!
Utters her p!aln;ivr cry ;
Faintly, how faintly is Echo efirr’l
W th her solemn minstrelsy.
Long, how long is death deferr’d—
Why comes not the archer’s dart ’
Soon, how soon the wish is heard—
But not for the broken heart.
Sadly, How sadly the stricken deer
Pants for her fleeting breath :
FDn’ly, how faintly solutes the ear,
iier moans as they sink in death
Soon, how soon will come relief
To the throbbing pulses’ start:
Solemnly, how solemnly and br:ef,
But long for the broken heart.
Sadly, how sadly the stolen flow r
Droops ts gentle head ;
Soon, how soon from its native bow r
Has its fragrance and beauty fled.
And long, how long will be the hour
Ere the spoiler's boasted art
Can recall to life that wither and flow r,
Or restore the broken heart.
