The Now York Herald of the lbtli, makes the
following exceedingly doubtful announcement:
John Van Huron’s sudden devotion to south
ern men and southern rights is explained by
his approaching marriage with a young lady
recently returned from Europe, alui now in
this city—the only child of u wealthy Senator
of South Carolina, lately deceased. John will
thus bocomc a large slaveholder.
Senator McDuffie is the only Senator now
deceased, within our recollection, to whom
the above could apply.
One of the “ Townies,” says the Charleston
Standard, applied disrespectful epithets to CoL
R rooks, in the presence of a Southern student
of Yale College, at New Haven last week,
which being resented, the result was a tight
between about thirty students and as many
“Townies,”* in which several were injured ou
both sides. It would seem from this, that the
recent exhibition of fanaticism by licecher,
dilliman Cos., in that city, has not entirely
quenched the spirit of the young men, whose
homes (and proper place of education, too,)
are at the South.

Harris, of the Cleveland Herald, writing
from New York, says he learns from Philip
Dursheimer, one of the delegates at large to
the Republican Convention, from New York,
that Ex-President Van Huron is in cordial
sympathy with the Republicans, and expects
to vote the Republican ticket in the coming
election. Mr. Dursheimer is an old and inti
mate political frieud of Mr. Van Huron, and
served under his administration as postmaster
at Buffalo, lie understands fully his position,
and though John throws up his hat for the
Buchanan ticket, the old man does not intend
to follow his example.
Bolting.
Politicians are rivalling the flour-mills just
at this time in the “bolting” business. Never
before since this was a country, has there been
such a chaos, so uiuuy mixed and split tickets,
so many hues and shades of political complex
ion and mnnoeuverc, so much barter and sale,
such a dire entanglement of the political wires,
and universal “noise and confusion. What
with triangular tights and scrub-races, we can
not see very far ahead, and prophecy would be
risky. Calms follow all storms, however; and
though bees, hornets, or politicians may buz/,
for awhile, they invariably settle down at last.
There is no special necessity to have the coun
try Insured at present, and we hope the many
crises on haud will be terminated quietly.

It is well that the Dean did not arrogate to
himself the right of appraisement, for his opin
ion of the sex was never very high. Yet he
was a man for whom two women, well-born,
well-edncated, well off and beautiful, broke a
heart apiece, aud pined away because of the
Dean—why, we never could guess, except up
on the broad principle that the ladies are enig
mas. The “Stella” and “Vanessa” pages in
the history of Swift’s times, are among the
most enrions in all history, and well worth
reading
Fourth Os Jlily.
We notice that some of the political parties,
among others, the Democratic Party ol Geor
gia, are appropriating our greatest National
Anniversary to their oWn uo- tor Convention
purposes. We do not like to see this—cannot
think it right, while there is a sufficiency of
other days to answer every purpose. Either
this tiny is taken because of its National char
acter or it is not. If the former, it is a dese
cration of so great a dny to set it aside for
a party purpose; and the effort, if it he so in
tended, thereby to arrogate a peculiarly na
tional character for the party holding its Con
vention on that ilny, is unwarranted and
even paltry. If the other horn of the dilem
ma be taken, and the Fourth .was not appropri
ated because of its being the Fourth, then wc
deeply regret to see a great party ignoring a
dny which for so many years has been held
sacred by men of alj parties, creeds and clas
es, endowed with American citizenship.—
The Fourth of July, so long as wc are a peo
ple, should be to the whole United {States,
what the 25th of December is to all Christen
dom— a day of universal rejoicing, on which
all VincrlcaiiH on the one, ns all Christian on
the other, may meet fraternally, and lor the
time being drop all distinctions-—meet for tlie
sake of the past, and for the time forget all
plans and schemes for future aggrandisement,
private, personal or political. In this senti
ment. wc know, and are happy to know, scores
of good Democrats will join us, and mingle
their regrets with ours that such an error
should have been committed by the Democratic
Burly. “We hold this truth to be Self-evi
dent’ that a national inheritance belongs just
ly to no one party except in a case of * Whig
and Tory” as in the days of “70. “
The American party in their appropriation
of the 22d of February last, for their National
Council, are equally open w ith the Democratic
party, to censure ; and wc trust that both will
hereafter set better examples to the country.
‘flic Now York Herald is very severe, if any
thing it says could be severe, upon the South
ern press for its alleged desertion of L’icrcc
and Douglas after they had done all they
could for the South. It blames Southern Ed
itors for treating Fierce precisely as it treated
him, because Fierce icouldn’t do all he could
for Beunct, i. c., scud him to France. The
Herald now supports Fremont for President,
and talks in this wise:
“The moral vice which prompts Southern
editors to vent such scurrility not only oil their
political foes, but on their political friends, has
infected the whole body to which they belong;
from henceforward let no man expect of the
South aught save treachery, ingratitude and
desertion.”

A pro-slavery journal is to he established,

Buchanan’s Letter of Acceptance.
WiiKATi.AJio, near Lancaster, \
g June lb, 185 b. j
Gentlemen : I have the honor to acknowl
edge the receipt of your (oinmuiucation of the
l:*,th inst.. informing me officially of my nomi
nation by the Democratic National Convention
recently held at Cincinnati, a* the Democratic
candidate for the office of President of tlie Uni-,
ted States 1 shall not attempt to express the
grateful feelings which 1 entertain towards my
Democratic fellow citizens for having deemed
me worthy of this—the highest political honor
on earth—an honor such as the people of no
other co iltry have the power to bestow. —
Deeply sensible of the vast nnq varied respon
sibility attached to the station, especially at
the pee.•leiit crisis in onr affairs, 1 have care
fully refrained from seeking the nomination
either by word or deed. Now that it. has been
offered by the Democratic party, 1 accept it
with diffidence in iny own abilities, but witli
an humble trust, that in the event of my elec
tion, I may beenabled to discharge iny duty in
such a manner us to allay domestic strife, pre
serve peace and friendship with foreign na
tions. and promote the best interests of the P.e
publie.
In accepting the nomination I need scarcely
say that L accept in the same spirit, the reso
lutions constituting the platform of principles
erected by the convention. To this platform 1
intend to confine myself throughout, the can
vass, believing that 1 have no right, as the
candidate of the Democratic party, by answer
ing interrogatories, to present new and differ
ent iasucs before the people.
It will not be expected that in this answer,
L should specially refer to the subject of each
of the resolutions ; and l shall therefore con
fine myself to the two topics now most promi
nently before the people.
And in the first place, 1 cordially concur in
the sentiments expressed by the convention
on the subject of civil and religious liberty.—
No party founded on religious or political in
tolerance towards one class of American citi
zens, whether, born in our own or in a foreign
land, can long continue to exist in this coun
try. We are all equal before God and the
Constitution; and the dark spirit of despotism
and bigotry which would create odious dis
tinctions among our fellow citizens, will be
speedily rebuked by a free and enlightened
public opinion.
The agitation ou the question of domestic
Slavery lias too long distracted and the
people of this Union and alienated their affec
tions from each other. This agitation has as
sumed many forms since its commencement,
but it now seems to be directed chiefly to the
territories ; and judging from its present char
acter, 1 think wc may safely anticipate that it
is rapidly approaching “finality.” The repent
legislation of Congress respecting domestic
slavery, derived as it has been from the origi
nal and pure fountain of legitimate political
power, the will of the majority, promises ere
long- to allay the dangerous excitement. This
legislation is founded upon principles, as an
cient as free government itself, and in accord
ance witli them, has simply declared that the
people of a Territory, like those of a State,
shall decide for themselves, whether slavery
shall or shall not exist within their limits.
The Nebraska Kansas Act does no more than
give the force of law to this’ elementary prin
ciple of self-government; declaring it to bo
“the true intent and meaning of this act not
to legislate slavery into any territory or State,
nor to exclude it therefrom: but to leave the
people thereof perfectly free to form and regu
late their domestic institutions in their own
way, subject only to tlie Constitution of the
United States. This principle will surely not
be controverted by any individual of any pat
ty professing devotion to popular government.
Besides, how vain and illusory would any oth
er principle prove in practice in regard to the
territories .’ This is apparent from the fact ad
mitted by all, that after a territory shall have
entered tlie Union and become a State, no
Constitutional power would then exist which
could prevent it from either abolishing or es
tablishing slavery, as the case may be, accord
ing to its sovereign will and pleasure.
Most happy would it be for the country if
this long agitation were at an end. During its
whole progress it lias produced no practical
good to any human being, whilst it lias been
the source of great and dangerous evils. It
has alienated and estranged one portion of the
Union trom the other, and Ims even seriously
threatened its very existence. To my personal
knowledge, it has produced the impression
among foreign nations that our great and glo
rious confederacy is in constant danger of dis
solution. This does us serious injury because
acknowledged power and stability always com
mand respect among nations, and arc among
the best securities against aggression and in
favor ot the maintainance of honorable peace.
May we not hope that it is the mission of the
Democratic party, new the only surviving con
servative party of tlie country, ere long to over
throw all sectional parties and restore the
peace, friendship and mutual confidence which
prevailed in the good old time, among the dif
ferent members of the confederacy. Its char
acter is strictly national, anil it therefore as
serts no principle for the guidance of the Fed
eral Government which is not adopted and
sustained by its members in each and every
State. For this reason it is everywhere the
same determined foe of all geographical parties,
so much and so justly dreaded by the Father
ot’ liis Country. From its very nature it must
continue to exist so long as there is a Consti
tution and a Union to preserve. A conviction
ot these truths lias induced many of tho pur
est, tho ablest and most independent of our
termer opponents, who have differed from us
in times gone by, upon old and extinct party
issues, to come iuto ourranks and dovote them
selves with us to the cause of the Constitution
and tho Union. Under these circumstances, l
most cheerfully pledge myself, should the
nomination ot the Convention be ratified by the
people, that all the power and influence,
constitutionally possessed by the Executive,
shall be exerted, in a firm but conciliatory
spirit, during the single term L shall remain in
office, to restore the same harmony among the
sister States which prevailed before this apple
of discord, in the form of slavery agitation, had
been east into their midst. Let the members of
the family abstain from intermeddling with the
exclusive domestic concerns of each other, and
cordially unite, on the basis of perfect equali
ty among themselves, in promoting the great
national objects of common interest to all, and
the good work will be Instantly accomplished.
In regard to our foreign policy, to which
you have referred in your communication—it
is quite impossible for any human foreknowledge
to prescribe positive rules in advance, toregu
late the conduct of a fnture administration in
all the exigencies which may arise in our vari
ous and ever changing relations with foreign
powers. The Federal Government must of
necessity exercise a sound discretion in dealing
with international questions as they may oc
cur : but this under the strict responsibility
which the Executive must always feel to the
people ot the I. nited Stutes and the judgment
of posterity. \oir will therefore excuso me
for not entering into particulars ;J whilst 1
heartily concur with you in the general senti
ment, tlmf our foreign affairs ought to he con
ducted with such wisdom and firmness as to !
assure tlie prosperity ot the people at home,
while the interests and honor of our country
are wisely but inflexibly maintained abroad.— .
Our foreign policy plight ever to bo baaed upon
the principle of doing justice to nil nations, and
requiring .justice , from them in return; and
from this principle I shall never depart.
Should I be placed in the Executive (.'hair,
1 ,-huU u.-o uty best exertions to cultivate peace
and friendship with all nations, believing this
to bo our highest policy as well a- our most,
imperative duty; but at the same time, 1 shall
never forgot tliut in case the necessity should
arise, which 1 do not apprehend, our national
rights and national honor mast be preserved
at fill hazards and at any sacrifice.
Firmly convinced that a special l’rovidence
governs the affairs of nations, let ns humbly
implore his continued blessing upon our coun
try, and that he muy over t from us the pun
ishment wc justly deserve lor being discontent
ed ami ungrateful whilst enjoying privileges
above all nations, under such a Constitution
ami such a Union as has never Ween vouchsaf
ed to any other people.

We have a private letter from IVacahoota,
East Florida, dated the 12th iustant and de
tailing incidentally the recent assault upon
Capt. Bradley’s House. It was just after dusk
in the evening of the 14th May, and Bradley
lying abed sick. Two of his children—a little
boy and girl—were sitting before the open
door in the entry of the House, when a band
of some twenty Indians stole up and fired upon
them. The little girl was killed outright and
the boy mortally wounded; but lie neverthe
less rose—wont in t;> the femily, gave the
alarm—took down his gun and fired at tho en
emy. lie then handed it to his brother, saying
lie had no further use for it, and died imme
diately. II is body had been pierced by two
balls. Bradley and tlie other son kept up a
fire and the cowardly Indians dared not make
an assault. Tlie neighbors finally gathered
and drove them off.— Macon Telegraph, ‘loth.
