THE DAILY TIMES. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 9. The Cable Banquet in New York. Our New York Exchanges bring us elaborate accounts of the ceremonies observed at the festival n that city, in commemoration ol the Atlantic Telegraph. They are too long for reproduc tion in our columns, but the speeches delivered on the occasion are well worthy of perusal. That especially of Lord Napier,'the British Minister, in response to the following toast: “The Govern ment and People of Great Britain and Ireland joined to us in the Court of Neptune, may the nuptials never be put asunder,” is an eloquent and appropriate oflfeting. tiis Lordship referred with satisfaction to the fact that his ministerial term was coteinporaneous with the success of this sublime achievement. Admitiog without discussing the use fulness of euch a communication to the interests of trade and commerce and matters of personal feeling and private affection, he contented himself with a referenceto its great value in international transactions. Upon this subject, he says: ‘Something may he detracted from the func ,lollß of diplomacy, but much will undoubtedly be gained for thepeace of nations. By ibis mean? | the highest intelligence and authority on either side will be brought into immediate contact, and whatever errors belong to the employment of su i bordinate and delegated agencies may be prevented or promptly corrected..By this meansmany cl the evils incidental to uncertainty and delay may be cancelled, offences may be instantly disavowed, omissions may be remedied, misapprehensions may be explained, and in matters of unavoidable con troversy we may be spared the exasperating effects of discussion proceeding on an imperfect knowl edge of facts and motives. In addition to tlieie specific safeguards it may be hoped that the mere habit of rapid and intimate intercourse will greatly conduce to the prevention of a good understand ing. On the one hand stands England, the most opulent and vigorous of monarchies, in whose scant but incomparable soil Jie compacted the materials of a boundless industry; on the ether, the Republic of the United States, founded by the same race, tired by the same ambition, whose in crease defies comparison, and whose destinies will baffle prediction itself. [Cheers,] We cannot doubt that those fraternal communities are fated to enjoy an immense expansion of mutual life, the instant interchange of opinion, intelligence and commodities will become a condition almost in separable from existence ; and whatever stimu lates this developement will oppose a powerful obstacle to the rupture of pacific relations.” tMr. Cyrus W. Field, in response to a toast com mendatory of his personal sacrifices and perse verance in conducting the work to its triumphant consummation, acknowledged the indebtedness of himself andthe world to th-s unflagging sympa thy and unwearied co-operation of others who assisted him in the origination and perfection of his plans. Speeches were also made by Ex-Gov ernor Piice of New Jersey, Captain Dayman, Gov. King of New York, and others, among whom we are pleased to notice, JJon. John E. Ward, of Savannah. The Southerner is prover bial tor his devotion to the “sex,” and for this reason, we presume, the eloquent Georgian was selected to make a response to ihe toast: “Wo man—At whose feet we lay all our triumphs; to her we owe the happiness of life and the con solations of home. God bless her!” The theme and the speech were worthy ol the orator and the occasion. At a late hour the congratulations and rejoicings ceased. We shall now await with some degree of impatience nn opportunity to taste the practical fruit of the Cable. Destruction of the New York Quaran tine Buildings. We made some allusion to the great destruc tion of the Quarantine buildings at New York in our last issue. We copied in tiiat impression of the “Times” a letter Bom Mr. Scheli, Collector of New York, to Mr . Cobb asking that a de tachineniof U. S. Marines be brought into re quisition to save the Government property at Quarantine from the relentless fury of the mob. The origiu of the plot is thus spoken of: The plot to destroy the quarantine buildings was matured about a week ago. A meeting of the citizens of Castleton and Richmond county , ae held at Castleton, when it was deteimined to ‘*- the buildings on the first of September A box “patches and'a ball of lampwick formed the materials of war. With these eombutibles ‘ffeconspirators marched to the quarantine premi ses, scaled the walls, entered the hospitals, carried out the sick, and immediately afterwards the work of destruction had commenced. Scaling ladders were used in getting over the wall, but in making their exit from the grounds, they escaped through the breaches which had been made in the walls by the firemen on the outside. In all thirty-two buildings were destroyed— The quarantine grounds are said to wear the most woe begone appearance. Not a house be longing to the quarantine authorities has been left standing, and everywhere the hand of the de stroyer is visible. Southern Party.— We have received a pam phlet containing the ‘‘Platform of the Great Southern Party.” Its object is to make a pjacea and honorable separation ol the Confederacy, It is drafted after the consultation of “democrats, whigs and Americans” and comes to u3 with no marks by which we can recognize its paternity.— It says, the General assembly of the Southern States shall convene at Columbia, S. C., Mr. C Hatfield's Letter.— We give place, to the exclusion of othor matter, to a letter from Mr. G. W. Chatfield, of Auburn, Ala ,to Col. W. F. j Samford, upon the political questions of the day. It is addressed to Hon. YV. F. Samford, as he oc cupies deservedly a high position in the Demo cratic party, Washington, Sep. 7.—A dispatch lias been re ceived here, from St- Louis, which states that the Hon. W. A- Richardson has resigned the office of Governor of Nebraska, for the purpose of stump ing the State of 11 liuois in favor of the Hon. S, A. Douglas, It is reported in this city that Mr. R- re signed lor domestic cause*. The Hon. James B. Bowlin, of Missouri, late j Minister to Bogota, has been tendered the Mis sion to Paraguay. Washington, Sept. 7.—The government will probably accept the offer of-'the Atnericnn Colo nization Society to lake care of the African? captured in the Putnam, after landing them in Liberia, for fifty thousand dollars, for one year and teach them industrial pursuits. New Yore, Sept. 7. — Gov. King, of this State, j has issued his proclamation declaring Richmond county in a state of insurrection. In order to pro tect the lives of tr.e sick, and protect the property of the State, he has felt it his duty to order that a . military force of sufficient strength be stationed I at Quarantine until the people return to their du ties and obligations. Punch speaks of venison as the deer de- j parted. communicated, Auburn, Ala., Aug. 25, 1858. Dear Samford—We having been for many years engaged hand in hand in sup port of the great and tirne-honored princi ples of the Democratic party, I propose to talk with vou, as of yore, upon some mat- j ters that, I suppose you, as well as myself, j aro not indifferent to. No one, who has carefully noticed the tone of the Democra- ‘ tic press, in the various sections of the i country, can have failed to discover a dis cordancy not at all favorable to the hope of harmonious action in the contests which are so soon to come. There is, it seems to me, too much im portance attached to side issues, and too little attention given to the great and dis tinguishing principles of true Democracy. The prominence given to these side issues, and incidental questions, on which ortho dox Democrats may differ, leads to wrang ling and strife, and to dissensions fatal to our great cause, and furnishes capital for our enemies with which to do us injury.— Is there any common ground upon which we all, as Democrats, can constantly stand? If an humble, but unfaltering sup porter of true democracy, may be permitted to answer, I would say yes. The Buchan an Admmistrati n is, in the main, sound and orthodox; and, if tried by the strictest j tests of sound democracy, will be found to be in direct conformity with the well estab ; lished principles of the party. And hard | will be the task of him, who undertakes to i convict that administration of any material departure from the ancient and well defin i ed landmarks of genuine democracy.— Here, then, is common ground—here is a ! stand point; and, occupying this position, in harmony, firm concord and solid phal anx, we may bid defiance to opposition, let it come from false friend, open enemy, or both combined. The Administration is sound, patriotic and constitutional; it is the open and avow ed supporter of those great strict construc tion, democratic principles, which have | borne our country aloft to its present high ; and glorious position, the wonder of an ad | miring world. To say nothing here ofless j important principles, is a Constitutional i Union, upon the principle ol State equality a cardinal doctrine of the democratic par ity? The Buchanan administration stands to that. Is the position that new States— : (in framing their constitutions preparatory to admission into the Union) have the right ’ to regulate their domestic institutions to | suit themselves, democratic? The Buc hanan Administration savs the proposition is correct. Is the position, that anew State, seeking admission into the Union, with a constitution recognizing slavery, is entitled to admission, a democratic posi tion? The Administration endorses that, position as correct* These are the great principles that underlie the doctrines of Southern Rights—of State Rights—of | Constitutional Rights, and indeed of popu lar freedom. And 1 confess, that l have ! been, more than twenty years, an actor with the Democratic party, without un derstanding its principles, if Mr. Buekan j aids Administration is not, so far, in eonso nance'with the true democratic faith. Here, then,l repeat, is safe ground, up* |on which all of us, as democrats, may stand—administration democrats. Here are our principles, time-honored principles, : and by the National Democracy (for true i democracy is a unit and necessarily na tional) an Administration lias been placed in power that reflects these principles and glories in them. The true democratic banner is unfurled in support ami defence of these principles, and here is the touch j stone, this the Shibboleth by which to test j democratic orthodoxy. Questions may arise at the South or at the North, local in their nature and effects, | and differences may exist in the opinions | of true democrats, as to their expediency j or right, but if they do not involve the great I principles, upon which our political distinc* i tion rests, they should not disturb the har ! mony of the party, nor be made the cause of disaffection towards any. You,for instance, may contend for the policy of re-opening the African slave trade. 1 am opposed to that policy; are you,there fore, a better or truer democrat than I? or : am Ito regard you as a deserter lrom the ! democratic ranks because you approve I that policy? Certainly not. You are a 1 Southern Leaguer, 1 am not; but because 1 we differ as to the expediency of that move ment, is either of us, therefore, not a demo crat? Is our friend Col. Yancey, because of his ardent devotion to the peculiar inter ests of the South, and because he watches those interests!with a Calhoun vigilance and ability, less a true democrat than you or I? Or our friend Hilliard, because of his high appreciation of the Union, and his conserv atism, is he less loyal to the South or to the democratic principles than we are? Why should democrats wrangle about the soundness or unsoundness of Mr. Douglas’ democracy? That is not a question lor us to quarrel about. Loose sight of the man, and look at principles. If he is not a sup porter of the aforenamed fundamental principles, he is not with us, and “he that is not for us is against us.” Mr. Buchan an’s administration, we say, so far as de* I veloped by avowed principles or overt acts, is soundly democrotie and worthy cf all acceptation, lie that supports it is on our ! side. He that repudiates it for these prin* ; ciples repudiates the democratic party. But there is that Kansas Conference Bill - affair; what are we to do with that? Are j not some of the democratic presses defend- j ing, and some denouncing that measure 7 Y es, it is even so. But whether you and 1 approve or disapprove it, is not the ques tion to try our soundness, as democrats, by. An advocate and a Southern opposer of the Conference Bill, may be sound and consistent, though we may differ as to the propriety of the measure. The position of the Administration, and of the support ers thereof in this matter,is what we should enquire into. Mr. Buchanan recommend ed the admission of Kansas with the Le compton constitution, and was the friend of the Senate bill, as long as there was any vitality in it. That was right we say. No departure from democratic laith there. YY r eii, who opposed and who sup ported the Senate bill? The whole Black Republican force in the Senate, with all their bitter hatred of the President, and aided by Douglas and Bel! and Crittenden, opposed if, and the whole Democratic ad ministration force in the Senate, supported it. And here note, that the Senate bill was passed by the supporters of the Adminis tration alone. Every vote given for the measure, from either the North or the South, was a democratic vote. And note again, the Senate bill was acceptable to the South, it was acceptable io Mr. Buchanan, it was acceptable to the democratic party, and it was in accordance with the avowed principles of democracy. Then the friends of the Buchanan administration quoad hoc, are the true democracy. But the Conference bill, how about that? We!!, we preferred the Senate bill became it was right in principle, but if our Senators and Representatives in Congress, after a fruitless struggle to get that bill through the House, accepted the Conference biil, as j the best they could do under the circum stances, surely we should not fall out with the administration because its friends could noldo what it recommended, and did what they honestly thought, no doubt, was best in the premises. And it is worthy ol re mark. that the Black-republicans with Dou glas, Bell and Crittenden, opposed the Con ference bill, with the same obstinate resis tance, that they opposed the Senate bill. ; But another question arises here—what ! is to lie done with our members to Congress who voted for the Conference bill ? In an swering this question let us taken brief sur vey of the circumstances attending its pas sage. A committee of the Senate reported a bill for the admission of the State of Kan | as with the Lecompton constitution, and | the Senate passed the bill, substantially, as ! reported by the committee. Tito Senate J bill was sent to the House of Representa- I tives where it was so altered and its fea i tures so marred, that the Senate refused to recede. Now if the matter had stopped there ; if legislation on the subject had ceas ed at that stage of the ease, Kansas would have been left right where she now is, out of the union, as a State. But here committee tees of conference appointed by both hou ses of Congress, and the measure known as the Conference bill was agreed on in com mittee a; and reported to the respective hou ses, and by both adopted. The prominent, and essential features of this bill were, that Kansas should bo admitted wi'ii the Le compton constitution provided = lie people of Kansas would, by a popular vote, sanction certain and imperial!’ changes, in the ordi nance of the Kansas Convention in regard to the public lands in the State This pop ular expression of sentiment was had, as was provided, and the people o! Kansas re jected the terms of admission. Am 1 now note: Kansas was lefr, by that act of her people, just where she was left by the re jection of the Senate bill, by the House— out of the Union, as a State. The whole state ofllie case clearly establishes these facts—lst. That unless the House of Rep resentalives had assented to the Senate bill, Kansas could not have been admitted, had nothing more been done. l . nd. By the Con ference hill, which both houses accepted, there was a recognition of the right of a State to admission with a slavery constitu tion, and a chance of Kansas being admit ted ; whereas, without the Conference bill, there was no chance lor the Lecompton Kansas to come into the Union. Then up on the logical calculation of chances, there was one chance for admission under the | Conference bill, and no chance without it. Then what becomes of all this parade which we have about the infidelity of our con gressmen to the interest of the South. We hear a great, deal about the sacrifice of the rights of the South, and the treason oflhose ’ democrats supported the Conference bill, j but when wo came to investigate, and i calmly consider the charge, and specifics- I tions, there is not the semblance of justice ,in the accusation. And shall we be driven, by the croakings of our adversaries, into an tagonism to our own friends and princi ples ? Shall we reward the earnest and patriotic services of our public servants with censure, and proscription because they did in this Kansas matter the best they could under all the circumstances ? Did democrats ever do any thing that pleased I our adversaries? And shall we shrink | from the vindication of our friends, because | our enemies condemn them ? There is one ! humble individual, at least, who will not. Suppose the case to have been in this I Kansas Conference bill affair as it onceap : peared it would be, that the disagreement j of the two houses ol Congress hail left the ! Senate bill to die, and entombed in the half way ground to success, what ought we to have done ? Resist —Resist what? Here are an administration that recommends, and a decided majority of Senator’s that sup port the very policy that we approve, with a large portion of the Representatives stri • ving for months, with might and main, to consummate the good work so uobly be gun : but by the enmity of many and the | disaffection of a few, the favorite measure ! was defeated ; and tore ist, that is, to array ! the South in opposition to the government, would be to oppose a force, that was oxer ; ting its constitutional functions to aecom | plisli that which wo desired. This would be preposterous. We hear much of the sacrifice of the rights of the South by this j Conference bill —well, let us see. The South asserts the principle that a State may be admitted with a proslavery constitution. ! The Conference bill recognizesthe right. The South says Kansas had a right to come into 1 the Union with the Lecompton constitution. : The Conference bill admitted the right. — j But why was not Kansas admitted ? lies I ! cause the people of Kansas refused to ac* j ; cept terms which the Congress of the Uni- 1 i ted States, (as the guardians of the inter- j | ests of the States, ip the public lands) j I thought proper to impose. Then no wrong : ! was done to any party. And to impeach j the honesty and patriotism, the soundness ; and reliability, of our congressmen is, to ! the say least ol’if, captious and un just. And ! who, in all the land, can doubt the sound ness of such men as Toombs and Iverson, of Brown and Davis, of Clay and Fitzpat rick ? Are Dowdell, Moore, Curry, and the rest of our Alabama representatives traitors, and unworthy of the further con* fidence of their constituents? Such an imputation would meet, as it would deserve, j a withering, blasting rebuke from the denis ocracy of Alabama and the South, and the nation. And to say that the South has been swindled, by the action of her con gressmen is to charge them, either with deliberate corruption, or with a want of common sagacity to perceive the wrong.- It comes, in plain language to a charge of corruption or of ignorance, against our best, and ablest men. These things ought not so to be. Then let all true unselfish demo crats be done with such wrangling and outside disputations, and rally to our stan dard—the standard ot democracy. For the cause of popular liberty—the cause of con stitutional freedom, the cause of State rights —the cause of the constitutional rights of the South—the cause of our country’s pros* peritv, and the cause of democracy are one, and inseparable. Y'ours truly, G. W. Chatfield. Col. W. F. Samford. The Southern League. We are not of those who think lightly of this onishoot of Southern discontent ; nor j do we hold that sneers aud revilings are the true arguments of repression for its er rors. We do not even go so far as to say that it is an error, in fact or in principle, for the men of the South to organize an ex tended system of defensive counsels and measures if they really believe the demon of “aggressive sectionalism” is to reign at j the North. On the contrary, we hold that an early and thorough discussion of State- J rigiits, and a complete assertion of their due and legitimate supremacy, in every State and Territory in the Union, is the only way to preserve the Union. it must be made cleariy evident to the commercial and manufacturing States of the North that a disruption of the confed- t erationand the ruin of all their peculiar in terests will positively and immediately fol low a deliberate violation ot the terms of copartnership; and then, if never before, the ship and factory builders will recede from their assaults on the reserved rights of i the South. When Boston and New York ! are convinced that the grass would grow in their streets if they persist in forrii.g the agricultural South and West to carry their products to lbreign markw from their own most direct ports, the New York and Bos ton press will hasten thoir return to the original principles of the compact of the Union. The misfortune of the South has been that her political leaders have preferred the | petty expedients of the hour and their own i personal aspirations to the broad principles j and far-reaching policy which alone could i preserve the relative weight and statues of | the slave-holding States in ihe equilibrium of the Union. They stubbornly threw ; away, in 1850, the fullest opportunity to ; make Central America an invincible rear | guard of Southern interests, and it is much j to be feared (hat they will manage to sacri j fice Cuba to Europe and the negroes the | coming winter. Such men never travel beyond tiie limits of Buncombe, and in their best estates are little better than noisy mischief makers. Such men m*ver origi nate great national measures; never unite their names on the policy of the State. The best that can he said of them is, that they have their occasional uses in keeping astir the healthy waters of discussion. ‘J’iie South deals too much in grand con stitutional abstractions, which taper down i to less than nothing when brought to the j touch-stone of common sense application ; j and the organization and discussion of the Southern League may bring her to a better knowledge ot the action and measure re quisite to her firm and equal position in the Union. This high and equal status can not bo abated without endangering the Union; for the extreme preponderance of anyone sec:ion would, in the nature of man and nations, lead to tyranny,and tyran ny would compel disruption. Prevention • is better than cure; and we regard the ! Southern League as a counter-irritant of | the most sanitive character. It will bring | the bad humors to the surface, where the ! healing prescription of State-rights can find them and effectually cure the Union of this debilitating sectional fever. Fiat T/ux is our motto.— Washington States. The following harvest report is from Cork, Ireland : “The sickle is already busy on all sides, and a truly golden bars vest is falling beneath its strokeJ.The crops of all kinds are so abundant and so en tirely free from even the appearance of dis ease or failure, that this may be called the first year of plenty since the famine. The yield of all produce beyond the meas | ure ofthe best years we have had lor a long time, and the country may at length | congratulate itself in the assurance that its : trials are at an end. Even the potato seems | to have all at once recovered the firmness i and sweetness of its best days. In point of i prosperity, Ireland need envy no country j m Europe at this moment.” The agents ot the “Underground j Railroad” appear to have reached New Or | leans. Last week a [negro boy belonging I to the gas works informed a police officer j that two white men wore tampering j with him, and proposed to cany him to 1 Oanida, where lie would be a freeman un der the protection of the queen of England. | ‘Fhe officer arranged his plans so 1 hat. he i could obtain satisfactory proof of the guilt j of the parties, and then arrested the Marais. ! One of them proved to be a New Yorker, ; the other an Englishman, and they gave ! their names as George Jones and William ; Robinson, It is likely they will be de | spatched to Baton Rouge to complete thei “scientific” education. “Would you not love to gaze on Niagara for ever?” said a romantic young girl to her less romantic eompauion. “Oh, no,” said he, “I should not like like to have a catarac always in my eye.” Mr. II declared that his wife had five fulls—“ That she wasbeutiful, dutiful,youth ful, plentiful and armful!” But his wife pleasantly rejoined, that “She had but one fool—her husband.” The surest way to lose your health is, to he all the time drinking that of other folks. What is worse than raining cats and dogs? Hailing omnibuses.
