South Carolina Again. AVe alluded a few days since to the past and present attitude of South Carolina towards the Southern States, and ventured the assertion that she was loosing much of the Calhoun-spirit, that characterized her in years past—quoting also from Northern journals to sustain us in our opinion.— We said in figurative language, that we feared that the “star of South Carolina that had so long guided ‘.he patriot by its effulgence, Arc.” was “being eclipsed by the clouds of Unionism, con servatisnfimd subiuissionism.” Our conservative cotemporary of the Savannah Republican affects a laugh at what we said and appears to be amused! It says that that star has - r- - ~ *9 „*wl * it Las been ki ti*o hi*fit- ‘'and begins to brighten as it approaches the u terestial globe. We arc not surprised at the “observations” of our cotemporary. They tally-precisely with those taken by Northern astronomers for the last forty years—that star has always appeared “high” when viewed through a telescope planted on Northern soil and through the mist and fog of Unionism and every other sort of ism. to the naked eye it. lins been visible at the South and known by its effulgence and brightness. It only glows dim as it goes North want and approaches the standpoint—the “terestial globe”—front whence our cotemporary takes his observations. We do not mean to question the purity of our co teiupprary’s motives, the is good enough hut simply to dotj.ee the remarkable coincidence of his calculation of distance with that of obser vers nii the plains of Boston or some other distant northern point. Slavks in Richmond. —We learn from the Richmond Examiner, that the sales of this Stock in the Richmond marts during this week, average about *B*o,ooo per day. Notwithstanding the ilireet importation opposition in Georgia; the jui ces still keep up at very high figures. We see that down South one of the Wanderer’s late car go of imported live Africans —“a stout, likely and tractable young fellow, aged 14 ’ —was sold in Augusta, for $260 only. Boys of that stamp in Richmond, are knocked down to the tune of 1200 or SISOO. non. Alfred Iverson. Wen re pleased to see from the proceedings of Congress published in the Daily G lobe, that the lion. Senator, whose name heads this article, is beariqg a conspicuous part in the debates of the session. In the debate of Friday, the 24th inst., we find the following remarks made by him up on the bill granting relief to the widow of the late Col. Trumbull, which are so consistent with justice and a high sense of duty, at the expense uf par natgne. (hat we pointed. Mr. IVERSON said: 1 know it is a very ungracious thing to on pose a bill of this sort; for the bill under consid eration is certainly one of those eases which ap peals strongly to sympathy. It is uothing move nor less than a mere gratuity. There is no jus tice nor right in it, uor is it pretended that there is any. Ido not rise, however, for the purpose of debating tuis case, but to state a fact to the Sen-* ate. We have a bill upon our table, just sent from the House of Representatives, which grants a pen sion of ninety-six dollars, a year to every officer and soldier who is alive that was engaged in the war of 1812, and to the widows of those who are dead. By a calculation which has been made up on very reliable data, that bill will draw from the Treasury $18,000,000 a year : and here is a prop osition tw extend oven that system, to given pen sion to the widow of an officer who died in the service, without any evidence that his death re sulted from wounds or from disease contracted in 1 the line <>f his duty. If we do it in tills case, I ask what is the reason we should not <lo it. as the Senator from Connecticut has very properly said, in every case, and not only grant a pension to the widow of every officer who dies in the service, but to the widow of every soldier; for I do not see the least distinction between a soldier and an officer? If one is entitled more than the other, it is the widow of the poor soldier who trudges along anil exposes his life on all occasions, and who has nothing to leave to his widow and children to support them. Officers have high salaries: they have high social position; they have many advan tages that soldiers do not have: and so have their widows and surviving children. If, therefore, there be any regard to justice or propriety, the soldier ought to be entitled to the bounty ‘of the Government rather than the officer. It is a mere gratuityut is a proposition to take out of thetrea usy money which has been put there by the sweat of the brows of millions, to feed those who have been already pampered by the government. That is the long and the short of it: hut I do not in tend to debate it. 1 shall ask for the yeas and nays on the passage of the bill. Hon. John Forsyth. A Washington Correspondence of the Mont gomery Advertiser, writes as follows. Some of the mysteries attending the Ministry of John Forsyth, in Mexico, will soon be Cleared P- On Tuesday Mr. Clay, of your State, intro duced a resolution calling upon the President “to lay before the Senate the correspondence between the Mexican Government and Mr. Forsyth, Min ister of the United States to Mexico : and the cor respondence ef the State Department on the sub ject of -Mexican affairs, referred to in his late an nual message, and such other correspondence as may he necessary to elucidate the complications which resulted in the suspension of diplomatic relations with Mexico by the l nited States lega tion in that country.” We are glad that Mr. Clay has taken this pre liminary step. \\ e have every reason to believe that Mr. lorsytk’s official acts in Mexico will bear inspection, and it is time the country were bet! ’- posted upon our mixed relation with that govt niuent. It is true the message gave us an insight, hut ever day is adding to the interest per taining to the question. I. s. Senator Elected. Indian w'olis.

Jefferson Davis and Judge Houston rj in the Territory -ve- Wkorn did G*o T> ’ “trifling - ‘ .-avis mean to characterize as c,. p politicians” in his 4th of July bpecch at : jt “Who are the “musquit-oes” which buzzed , such agreeable music in the ears of his Northern j admirers on that interesting and to him eventful l occasion? Gen. Davis says: “The publisher ot that “sketch,” of his sea speech, has already an- j nounced that it teas not a report and for its lan guage J could not jw>dy be considered responsible. To this it is needless that I should add ahy thing.’ It strikes a plain man that it would have been quite as easy and a great deal more satisfactory if he had said so, for Gen. Davis to have just said out, in an announcement as clear as the “crack’ of his “Mississippi rifle.” “/ never used the lan guage attributed to me by “the publisher of that sketch.” He does not say this, evidently because, he did use it. But he says in effect; “altbo’ I did use. it, the “publisher of that sketch’ says “the sketch” is “not a report ” and I ought not to beheld “responsible for it!” What! JEFFER SON DAVIS not “responsible” for the language whicji he used! And, why not ? Because a “sketch” of a speech, is not a “report!” and “the publisher ot the sketch” says he ought not to be ] made “responsible !” Surely his Southern friends will be satisfied with this endorsement of his Aor them admirers. Perhaps so!- But, I prefer to consider him “responsible.” Indeed lie so con siders himself, and proceeds on this basts to ex plain his meaning. Let us hear him and do him justice. Mr. Senator Davis magnanimously waives the exculpatory announcement of the “pub lisher of the sketch of the 4th of July speech at S ea” and says: “But I have treated it and will treat it in the view necessarily taken by thtise who construed it before such denial was AN liat nor has the “publisher of the sketch.” The “pub lisher of the sketch” says it was not a “report” of the sea speech. Very.well, but, did Senator Davis use the language attributed to him by the “sketch ?” The “publisher “does not deny that be did. Gen. Davis does not deny that he did. — The “publisher” says the is not a “re port’’—and we all knew that before. lie adds that Gen. Davis “could not justly be considered responsible for the language” of the sketch. Pos sibly not. But ibis remarkable that the “publisher” does not deny that he -used it ! There is no “de nial” .in the case. Gen. Davis is “responsible” for it! lie does not wow deny using it. He makes no “ deniall” but reasons out the case : why treat it arguendo, when it is a mere matter oifact and one word of “denial” would settle the whole mat ter. But Gen. Davis not only does not deny using the language attributed to him, but bo confesses it! and most adroitly avoids its force. He says it would have been “strange indeed” if he should have “sought, an occasion to heap reproachful language upon the State Rights Dem ocracy.” lie was of them—had stood with them “in the hour of gloom and defeat,” and they, “in the period of greatest advefsty had no cause to com plain of his fealty.” This is all over true audit did seem “strange indeed” to see him standingup in the midst of their enemies and using language at all capable of sued/ a construction —language that could require explanation. But Gen Davis say’s and we believe him, that he did not mean to ap ply the stinging epithet of “trifling politicians'’ to the “States Rights Democracy.” We rejoice that lie did not. We regret that he gave any oc casion for such an impression. He says he intend ed by ‘'trifling politicians.” Ist. The extremists among the abolition leaders, who insist oil disso lution of the Union, as a remedy against slavery: and 2d. The Southern extremists who are dis unionists per sc, and “decry the labors of those who seek to preserve the government as our fath ers found it. Sd. What did ho mean by saying “and this great country will remain united” in spite of these “trifling politicians.” He says that he meant it would remain “united to protect our National flag (!) whenever a foreign power pre suming on domestic dissension should dare to in sult'it.” Doubtless this is wbat lie meant, but how un fortunate that he did not explain what “Union” it was lie was so zealously defending. Certainly his audience and the public maybe excused for thinking he was talking about none other than our “glorious Union,” and more especially, as in BbuiiniTgnTwr/ot%"By v, ?.fe ; ypri\tim Trn i: Jtffrn tlio foes of tho United resistance to a “foreign flag.” We have never-heard that any Southern ultra ever yet took the ground that as long as the Federal Union exists, the Union of Arms against a foreign flag should not exi. t. Wc are not doubting that the distinguished or ator has truly told us whom he meant by “tri fling politicians,” and what sort of a “Union” he was defending. But we say it is unfortunate that he did not sufficiently explain these tilings to his Northern audience, to prevent misconstruction, and that ho did not, is manifest from Jtho fact that, he has no quarrel with the publisher of his speech. If he had done so,the reception which the Northern press has given his explanation, is in evidence that his march through the Northern States would not have been so triumphant as it was. After all. it seems there arc hut two points up on which the Southern Rights Democracy can justly take serious issue with Gen. Davis. The first is his substantial agreement with Judge Douglas in his Squatter Sovereignty “heresy.” Of this we have sufficiently spoken. The second point of disagreement between the gallant Senator and the Southern Rights Demo cracy! (and he never says “Southern Ilights De mocracy,” but more mildly “States Rights De mocracy,” with which we have no special quarrel) is one of a radical character. lie says, “I hold now, as announced on former occasions, that whilst occupying a seat in the Senate, I am bound to maintain the government of the Constitution, and in no manner to work for its destruction: that the obligation of THE OATH OF OFFICE. Mississ ippi s honor and MY OWN, require that AS A SENATOR of the United States, there should be no want of loyalty to the Constitutional Union.— Whenever Mississippi shall resolve to separate from the Confederacy, I will expect, her to with draw her representatives from the General Gov ernment, to which they are accredited. If I should ever, whilst a Senator, deem it my duty to assume an attitude of hostility to the Union. I should immediately thereupon feel bound to resign the office, and return to my Constituency to in form them of thefact. It was this view of (he ob ligation of my position, which caused me, on va rious occasions, to repel, with much indignation, the accusation of beinga disnnionist. while hold ing the office of SENATOR OF THE UNITED STATES.” This is a most extraordinary position for a radical Southern Rights or State Rights man like the distinguished Senator of Mississippi to take.— He evidently conceives himself as he says, “a Senator of the UNITED STATES,” and not of MISSISSIPPI, according to the State Rights theory. The “oath of office’ hinds him in a de spotic “loyalty” to the “ l mou.% hut not to fi delity to the STATE: as a ‘Senator’ he must light for “the Union’’ at all hazards. It is only as a private citizen that he can help Mississippi in “the last alternative.” It is true that he speaks of his Senatorial •‘loy alty to the Constitutional Union and again, of his being “bound to maintain the Government of the Constitution,” but the proof is'ample that he I simply means “the glorious Union.” and the “Government” “dry so.’’ What is that proof? Why that nobody ever thought of asking him to work in “any manner for the destruction of the Constitutional Union.” The “States Rights De mocracy’ has lifted no traitorous hand against ‘the Government of the Constitution.’ It is for the Con stitution—in defence of the Constitutional Union, and for the maintainance of “the Government of the Constitution,” that States Rights men work ever and every where. Senators and citizens to gether! An “oath” to support the Constitution, we hold to.be an oath to support the Rights'of the States, and that a Senator by virtue of his official obligations is all the more bound to work for the destruction of an unconstitutional and the main tninaneeof a Constitutional Union. Whatever is right for the citizen, is right for the Senator. — Senator Davis is “loyal“ to government as such.— The “States Rights Democracy is loyal to Con stitutional smdjree government. The Senator is a military man and obeys orders. The Southern Democracy adheres to the principles of the gov ernment and stands by the rights of the South, not c-’ _..iy in “adversity” but lu office too, as weil I as out of it. . , ‘ It is not onr office to doubt Jefferson Davis de- votion to the South. We do no such thing. Ilis jiatriotism. bis eloquence, his gallantry are all beyond question. Nor have we any disposition to discredit his statesmanship, though that is not so well attested. What we do intend to say, is, that he was too amiable and not quite explicit enough in his Northern speeches about the “Union” and “tri fling politicians.” j 2d. That be is no better, if so good, as Doug las. on the question of Southern Rights in the territories. 3d. That he has Federal and even monarchi cal ideas of the obligation of bis Senatorial “oath. 4th. That he lias modified his former Southern Rights views and feelings, and though not quite so “Conservative” as Senator Hammond, in his late Barnwell speech, is yet, not quite the Jeffer son Davis of 1850 ! That the Presidential aspi rant is not the Southern ultra —the Northern traveler is not the Mississippi “Regulator”—the dignified “Senator of the UNITED STATES” is not “JEFF. DAVlS’—the oath-bound partisan of I purple jind crown, is not the free, fearless, in- I dependent “tribune of the people” ; the sleek, harnessed, bedizzened, nicked charger of the Royal Steed, is not the wild untamed courser of the desert, with fire in his eye, the ring of the trumpet in his dilated nostrH, and “thunder on his neck!” WILL.
