One of this distinguished gentleman's greatest efforts in the cause of the South, was made on Tuesday night last, before perhaps, tbe largest audience ever as sembled in the Theatre. It was, in every respect, a master-piece, and however much there may exist differ ences of opinion as to the policy or ef ficacy of tbe measures proposed by him, to secure “ security for the fu ture,” wc cannot see how any South ern man, who listened to the tale of Southern wrongs and Federal usurpa- pation of power to perpetrate those wrongs, as told by our able Senator, can ever again, with unblushing front, raise his voice in extenuation ot the late acts of Congress, Judge Berrien commenced his speech by saying that he came there as the representative ol no party, and with no partisan feelings; but that be came as the representative of the interests of tbe whole people of Georgia, whose Senator he was.

Hordes of the offi- Hai the South been Cheated? The submission leaders tell the peo ple of Georgia that the South has great reason to rejoice at the action of Con gress on the slavery question—that the South has gained a great victory, and that Southern rights have not, lor thir ty years, been as secure as they are now. What is the impression of can did minds in the North on the sub ject? When we find influential jour nals acknowledging that “the North has cheated the South,” it should cause Southern men to doubt whether they have any thing to rejoice over, and noth ing to excite their indignation. The New York Herald says: “The North cheated tbe South in the admission of California. The North were convioced of it—they felt ashnm ed of it, and alarmed about it; and they endeavored to make up in their own self-abasement, in the passage of the fugitive bill, the atonement for their greediness in seizing the whole of tbe ifaVcouocils'"of'Tbe "nation;he'enlereci j 8°^ reg' 0 "- In one word, according upon the history of the wrong, of tbe lofheNorthern idea, ol the fogmve bill, South a, contained in the passage ofi“" d .' h ? Sopthern idea of California's the late adjustment bills. Judge B. admission, the North attempted to atone reaffirmed the doctrine advanced by ^ or an rd jracd iiy an act of dis- nivance or protection. Yet it does not become Southern men to pour out hys terical professions of gratitude and sympathy for such action on the pari of such persons—for low, indeed, will they have sunk when they will be ready to beg as a boon, or accept as a charity, the. performance of a simple duty on the part ol their Northern brethren.— We do not believe that the South has sunk quite as low as that yet, or that she is yet prepared to be “ thankful for the smallest favors,” as some of her nominal organs are in her behalf, adopt ing the motto of the poet: “ Contented whb little, And essty with more.” The appeals made to tbe pockets of the merchants have been succeeded by lotfirTdf flicflamii hoft addressed to the manufacturers. New England at present being in rather a stormy stale, the New York Journal of Commerce thus essays to poor oil on the troubled waters. It will be observed that tbe appeal is not made to the memories of Bunker Hill,. &c.* usually so forcibly resorted to for ornamental purposes, but a severely practical application to the pocket. We call attention to the fact merely ns such, not for any invidious purpose, since the Journal doubtless understands how to come home to the business and hosnmes of those it addresses: “ Manufactures Extra.—The man- alactares of New England are just at him in Congress, that the admission of California with her present constitution was a violation of the Constitution of the United States, adding that however touch it grieved him to find some of bis friends, and especially in this commu nity, differing with him on this subject, be would not so wrong the people of his Slate or stultify himself as to abandon, tram private feelings, a position which be called God to witness was the hon est conviction of bis mind. He then took np the Territorial .bills for Utah and New Mexico, and proved that their admission without the proviso, was no source of congratulation to "the South ; that we had gained nothing by it, not even the abandonment by the North, of a principle since tbe proviso was with held, because it was believed unneces sary, and Northern members stood pledged to apply it, when it should ap pear necessary fur the exclusion of slavery. Having ably defended bis vole on the Texas boundary bill and appropriation, he turned his attention for some time to the abolition of the slave trade in the District or Colombia. By this measure, be abiy contended that Congress had assumed and exer cised the right to abolish slavery itself in the District, since tbe penalty for carrying a slave there was a manumis sion. Having reviewed all the mea sures of tbc last Congress on the sub ject of slavery in tbeir respective order ot importance, he adverted to the call of the Convention in Georgia, which call he heartily approved. He advo cated a manly and firm coarse in that Convention, aod recommended as means of bringing onr Northern broth ers to their senses, a discriminating tax oo Northern goods after they bad been introduced into the State and become the property of Georgia Citizens. He also recommended that tbe Convention should on the first day of the session, enter npon their journal a resolution that whatever should be tbe action pro posed after due deliberation, that ac tion should be subject to the ratifica tion of the people of Georgia before it should have the force and effect of law. He was decidedly opposed to seces sion or a dissolution of the Union at the present time. Before concluding his remarks, Judge Berrien threw a wet blanket over that portion of our fellow citizens, who whilst they are afraid to denounce tbe i • - . • odious adjustment as aggressive and present engaoed m making « rope to unconstitutional, yel iudutgc in hector- h.ng .hcm«rv„ w,.h.

They first drive the South to the wall, aud out of California entirely, and then jtow down in tbe mosl abject humiliation to offer the impracticable in demnity of the fugitive bill. “If California had been honestly di vided, the South would have been ap peased; but this fugitive law, while it affords no security to the South, no in demnity for their exclusion from Cali fornia, only exasperates the abolitionists to drive the Sooth to revolt. The ad justment is tending in that direction." —Augusta Constitutionalist. Facto to be remembered. Who are Union wen? They art, the men who wish the gov ernment administered according to the consiiiutioD, that instrument pre served in its purity, and who will resist infractions tipoo it. They are the men, who believe that Southern Rights cannot be sustained by submission; and that acquiesence now whh gross and palpable injustice, will lead to suebrfortber aggressions, as will sever the Unioa or render the South tbc Ireland of ibis government. Who are Disunionists ? They are the men who Say, and say truly, that this Union most be dissolved if the fugitive slave law connot be en forced, and yet, who by submission now, tell the North they will submit again, and thus invite the North to ag gressions which will end in disunion. They are the men, who made 36® 30’ their fighting line, but receded from it when the country came np to it, and who by' submission now under the cry of Union, that “masked battery.” will recede again, and by thoir continued submission ’ render the constitution a nullity aad the Union a rope of sand.— Federal Union. A Havana correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune, in a-recent letter, says: “Among the “prominences” at the opera is H*me. Calderon de la Barca, I lady of the Spanish Mioister at Wash ington, .who is here for her health. She is an intellectual looking woman, and, judging from her deportment, sprightly and animated in her conversation.

Mr. Hacker has made, since be began, if we understood him rightly, some eighty cars, of various classes—some for our own, some for the Charlotte, some for the Greenville road. He is now finishing several bag gage cars, and a passenger car, which deserves especial notice. It is really a beautiful aud very stable piece of wotkmanship, anil when put upon the road will, we guarantee, in finish, £nd capacity for durability, rival the best Northern work ever brought here. It is built in such a way as to render it almost impossible that it should give way. Between the in and outside planks an arch of iron extends, so as to guard against all pressure from above. Ribs of iron are placed latterally, through which rivets pass, within short distances, and bold the whole firmly together. The paioling now being done is of superior finish; and the interior is constructed on a new and exceedingly convenient plan. Mr. Hacker, a gal lant man not forgetful, of the duty all men owe to the gentler sex, has ar ranged the car especially for their com fort. “ We confess we derived very great pleasure from this visit, and viewed the arrangements of Mr. Hacker with great satisfaction. This is the kind of patri otism which tells for the prosperity of South Carolina. Happy will it be lor the whole South, if, imitating this model ot industry, she feels the necessity of being independent in every branch of trade and mechanism. Half-a-dozen establishments like this, two or three Graoitevilles, a few steamers sent to Europe with our cotton, and return ing with articles needed, in exchange, will do more to bring our Northern friends to their senses than all the reso lutions which may be passed till dooms day. We cannot speak in terms of too high commendation of Mr. Hacker, and of those who encourage him. The direction of the railway deserve par ticular approbation for determining to pat native cars on the road. The ex ample set by Mr. Hacker will rouse the emulation of our native workmen, and end the madness of promoting for eign manufactures—a practice which has drained the South of her best means, kept her resources undeveloped, and stifled tbe infant euergies of her sons." the Union, m a place where ordinary civilization would not have reached for years, and where we need a thriving and agricultural, population, between the Atlantic and Pacific. The exploring party left the city of Salt Lake on the 28ib of August. At the outskirts of the town the first Mor mon train was met—afterwards trains were encountered, all getting along finely. It is estimated that at least twelve hundred wagons will have reached the city of Salt Lake this sea son from the States. The crops were all good in the valley. Capt. S. and his party were charg ed upon by a war party of the Snake Indians who did no harm; the assail ants discovering that preparations were being made to receive them, and that they had mistaken the party for Utahs, with whom they were at war.

The Frankfort correspondent ol the Louisville Journal, in his letter ol Mon day, furnishes the particulars of the chivalrous conduct of a heroic wife, a; Paris, Ky., in the following extract: “ The blue grass region was the scene, on Wednesday last, of an anom alous aud tragical occurrence. It is the more tragical because the principal actor (or actress,) is a woman. Be it remembered, also, that she moves in good society, and is, or was, as much respected as any lady in Paris. May her good name lose nothing by her chivalry and conjugal affection! Three men of bully reputation went the house of a gentleman in Paris, Ky., and asked his wife where he was, avowing their business to be to tie him op and whip him for slapping the mu latto child of onfc of their chums. She replied that he was in his shop. They went off, and she followed them into the cers for the collection of debts swarm about like the frogs, in olden time r plagued Egypt.

It betrays friendship^iw*!^' bribes fidelity. Slates ar<& weakened and made the prey of the money chan gers by debt. Countries once the fath erland of happy and contented people, are now the scenes of rapine and plun der by a horde of pampered dema-** gogues and oppressors, while the -sweat! and toil of the emaciated poverty-strick en plebians can no longer sufficiently fatten the soil to make it satisfy their hunger and the lax gatherer.

The pa pers was full of crowners quests of bro- KRti legs and limbs for a week after wards”—and she relapsed into an ab straction ol tlie ups and downs of life. The Carrier Pigeons of Sir John Boss. A Glasgow paper having announced the arrival of carrier pigeons from Sir John Ross, the Ayr Advertiser ol Tburs- day gives a detailed account of this “in teresting and unprecedented arrival:”— “It will be recollected that Sir John Ross, in his recent interesting despatches, alluded to four carries pigeons presented to him by Miss Dunlop, of AnnauhiH, near Kilmarnock, on leaving Ayr for the purpose of proceeding to the Arctic regions. On Sabbath week, the 19th inst., two pigeons of the carrier species, were noticed in the neighborhood oi Annanhill, and suspicion was soon efi- cited that they were two of the folr presented to Sir John. One of the piji eons were caught at Annack, and ^ brought to Annnnliill in the course ot Friday, where it was recognised by all who had seen the bird previous to its departure with the Felix.

On being introduced into its old domicil, bow- the pigeon nt once flew to the iden tical nest in which it was reared^rtrtte being upwards of forty compartments in the structure. This coincidence strongly strengihens the supposition that the bird is really what it is supposed to be—one of the companions of the gallant old navigator. The feathers nder the wing wero very much ruffled, .•here it is customary to attach de spatches, but the note, if any were at tached has been lost. In the meantime, the second pigeon has not been secured.

One of the drew a knife and pistol, and advanced to the husband, who, cornered, squalled murder. The !ady,however, ad vanced with necessary speed, and dealt the as sailant a blow with the mallet upon the shoulder, dislocated it, and silenced him. The second was met by the wo man, and a blow with the same instru ment, dealt with such force on the fore head as to break the skull, and pot him hors du combat. The heroine turned to her husband, and found him tussling wiih the third on the floor. She went to work upon this third gentleman’s head as deliberately os circumstances allowed, and soon succeeded in reliev ing her husband from all fear of “mur der” at his hands. AU the gentlemen assailants had to be packed home. I have beard of such heroism before, but not since the days ol Boone, Logan and Kenton. She must have some of ther blood in her veins.
