A* neoensary to the practical enforce ment of. and as a logical sequence from*this doc trine, Mr. Yancey contend* that it is the duty of CoogrcM lo correct and counteract by positive protection such unwarrantable action by the Ter ritorial Legislature ; that a Jcoixioii of the Hu prome Court declaring such Legislation null and void, would bo merely trifling with the subject without the exorcise of the power by Congress, to enforce and give effort to such judgment. Mr. Yancev think* that the Uws doclaring,tins African riUvo trade piracy are unconstitutional . that the power to paa such laws waa never vxpvenxly giv en, aud are not u<K-e ary to the Hiocution of any grouted power. fin #av ; “Tim power to prohibit that trade, lies alone with each State, and is a reserved right of ouch State. An exercise of it by Congreaa, is an in vasion of ibut right. No one will contend, that Congress had power under the Constitution to de clare tbr slav e trade piracy, before the year )k*. But yet, the power to define piracy, under which these Inw* arc enacted, existed before the year Now thou, can Congres* declare that to be piracy after the year lwtH, which it did not have the power oo to doclarc before that year, un der the same indenticel clause ?” We cioae thi* iuiporfoct summary oi Mr. Yatioyc's positions and argument* with one other extract from hi* letter, which declare* a truth that all will readily admit ; Iqdeed, in uiy opinion, the .South nt this time is not so much in need of platforms or belief in correct principles, a* she is sadly in need of true men in her council*. She hits often enough en unciated sound platform# and creed*, which have as often linen frittered away and rendered value less by compromises. What she inquirers is uien of the right stamp in her councils -enlightened, conscientious, determined and able men, wlioknow the iulcresiii of the Month, and who can and will uphold them, without compromise, against all other interests, whether they bo the intercuts of parties or of individuals at home, or of hostile *oot ions. Ido not desire to be understood as hay ing, that she ba* not such men now in her service. But 1 do say, that they arc far too few for the oc casion. ‘ The most of her representatives are mere puppets in the show, made to wheel and dance as the party organists choose to grind the music ; while others <>l ample ability and individuality arc absorbed in their own personal advam-emeut. which invariable requires u oournrotnise of South ern issues.” Mate Aid Albany Patriot. In another ooiunui may be found an article of the above capt ion, from the Albany Patriot.

Wc are not aware that undertook to an-wer our eotemporarvposition, are admitted in ila ‘•wn ftoliimnv. and hence, tliere w- no nece*#ity of publinhiug it. It was a short article, that con tained Ids* point and urgumc.nl, than any editori al wc have read upon that subject fVom our gifted cotonipurary. The charity of friendship would have imposed a barrier to its ro-publicatfou. But the Patriot should not grumble. It ha# never extended to us that courtesy of which it is now the especial friend. It has argued and re argu ed the posit on assumed by thi* journal, without ■WJTh Ildil'TftfhfodiicUHSTim.” Wc never u>ked, and never expected our cotemjmrary to burthen its column* with long editorialn trutu the Time*, upon (bis woru-out theme. It wire sufficient that Hr positions were correctly stated, * they have always beau, hy those journals that attacked them. So much for our untairties*. The bonst of the Patriot that our declination to continue a discussion upon this question, tann in dication of our inability t.M*ro<-> * tv orri* with it, and disposition to yield the argument before it# superior prowess, is entitled to thnt consideration which it will receive at the hands of modest men. To them and the readers of tho two journal# this question is submitted, bowing gracefully to their decision. But. cannot the Patriot devise another reason than that of* vanquished Knight iu our disposi tion to pas* over a discussion of this vital ques tion at this moment’ If it rosily wish*- unity nd harmony in the rank* of the Democratic party, a* proclaimed in tbe article, published to d*.v. will Hie Agitation of this subject promote it y lfiti# sincere iu its deduction#, why taunt u* with the chagrin and humiliation <>f a defeat * Why throw down tbe gauntlet Why tantalise ire with a want of spirit or nerve to continue a tight lo which wo have eevu nothing buteviden ccs of success ami a triumphant victory for tho friend* of anti-Staic-aid * Have our democratic miemporaries deserted us? 1# out the Patriot alone in its glory upon that question among the Democratic journals of thi* District lia# not the anti Stele aid party succeeded in tho Legis lature against tli* avarice us aelf-lutereat aud the combination of local clique* ‘ Do we extend the olive-branch of peace to our eotemporaiy for/sa/ of a defeat when vietoiy follows un iu *very step?

Thi* “unaccountedfor” poaition of the /Ymc* can he easily understood on the above hypothesis. But the main point in this discussion ia the in coneittenrif which the Patriot observes, iu our oppositiuu to State aid.

We have no fear of the I*Kgi<datur of (Jeorgia loaning its credit at the next mission to the amount of “twenty to twenty five million* of dollar*” to aid in Hniboada, any more than to aid in the con*trurtion of “Agricul tural Collage*” for the great interest of the mate.

It will require the most favorable seasons from now till the time it is gathered, to make its yield answer the demand* of the plan ter. The Cotton crop istoo much in it* infancy for ua to conjecture what it may be.

The laud look# tube literally worn out, and it iaa womfoi to a -trwnger, that much of it is cultivated at all. The planters, nevertheless, are prosperous ami happy. The number of them that have acquired wealth upou thi* very soil, will equal that of any county in the State, of the same population. One thing, ton, I must remark of tlieni, as a circumstance too uncommon not to lie particularly applauded : they are not puree proud.

The Brunswick uud Macon road, if built, will pass through this county. Subscriptions have already I men made by the cirixen#, but they are small iu comparison to the magnitude of the en terprise. They ere doubtless withholding their menu# with tho hope that the State will do for them, what they see in. reluctant to do for them selves. They are prudent and cautious with their own money, hot would h prodigal of that which belongs to the State. The sentiment of the county is divided upon the subject of State aid. The preponderance is against it. All along immediately upon the projected route, the people, with one accord, favor it. They hnve the means to build thin road, if they would Iw liberal in the use of them.

So much hex been recently written and ©aid on the subject of tfiu Presidency of this Road that I fear your readers will tire of the subject. There are, however, a few points that 1 would like to apeah es If you will grant me the use of your col umn*. Those who are tamiliur with the facte and condition of the Mobile A Girard Railroad at the time M.ii. Howard consented to become the Prea idenf, will recollect that i; was on the verge of bankruptey. They were sued largely, and there wa*every probability, nay, a certainty, that un less Nome one could be found that would assume the control t‘ its affairs, who could inspire confi dence in the public mind and infuse new life into the work, that it must go by the board, and the original stockholders lose what they bad iuvee ted; under these circumstances Major Howard consented to tako tho Presidency; at that time the road was only completed to Rilver Run. Time has demonstrated their wisdom in eelecting Maj. Howard. On entering upon his duties he found the debts (and conseqnently the embarrassments) of the Company much larger than be or the di rectory had supposed; he. however, addressed himself to the Herculean labor, and has succeed ed in paying over 120,000 dollars of old debts; has adled 30 railea to the road, without incurring any debt, and lie will at the annual meeting next week, submit a statement of the affairs of the Road, allowing that he has assets more than am pi# to pay every dollar the Rond owes, and will turn over to them a track rolling stock. Depot houses he.. free f debt. Is not this a mot mag ical transition in 3or 4 years - At one time on the verge of ruin ; to-day owning n properly coat ing over n million of dollars: to >ay nothing of the public Isnd* which at a very moderate price are worth 76 to*lo,ooo. Na rond in this country •at; make any better showing, and the effect of i this expo.it ion will be to enhance the value of the j stock at once, if not in its cash value it will at load in the opinion of the holdere. Is the man who ha.* brought about such results to be dis- ‘ charged by stockholder*, simply because some • people do not fancy hi* manners or language?— There is another point attained, which still eu- i hanees his extraordinary nuceas; through his mstrumentality and untiring efforts, companies have baeu formed in Pike county, to grade the ‘ Road iu the direction of Orion and Troy. Tbeea Companies are now in successful ofwration and hat# a large amount of work already accomplish ed for which they are to reeeive stock when the work is accepted. Go far as Columbus is concern od this is a highly important feature: the opening us the Road to the neighborhood of Troy will I throw 20 to 30.000 bales of cotton into this mar- j ket which w do net now get; oar interest lies in j reaching it as s)edily as poeeihln. To this end j Maj. Howard haa beast steadily laboring, and his j policy, not #0 make aay prominent petal aiowy i the linn of thin road a TemUrntm any longer than osn possib) j be avoided, i* most emphatically oar policy® a:id for our lutereot. This proposition doas not need aigurnent with Columbus merchant* or property holders. We subscribed to the Road, both a* a corpora tion and a* individuals for our own benefit, and while we are willing and expert the people along the line to enjoy all the incidental lwneflts aris ing from the Hoad, (which have been worth as much as the stock subscribed by them in the ap preciation of their lands,) we mast lemur when ws are asked to beeato* tributary to them, and only wish that the modesty of such expectation* was equalled by their subscriptions to the Road. n M KRTHA NT.

He knew it, too; but through the lonely desert no aid, no ithelter was at hand. At last he took her iu hi* arms and bore her ou till they reached a peasant's hut, and there, with her last look and thought and folding clasp on him who had been her ail in life, the soul nf that noble woman wont up to the great band of waiting martyrs, to tell them of her husband's deeds, ot Italy's, of Rome s. Not even a tomb had Italy to give to tbe gentle, brave Anita.— From the grave which her husband himself bod dug for her in wordless grief, her corpse, ferreted oat hy an Austrian dog, indicated to it# masters (less human than the brute) the generous peas ant who had sheltered her in her dying hours, and he paid the penalty awarded to any who should “give to Garibaldi or hi# followers tire, food, or shelter.” He was hong, drawn, and quartered. After wandering for thirty-five days in differ ent disguises, among the forests and the Apen nines, Garibaldi at last arrived in the Bardinian states, and, landed at Chiavari, war, seised hy the authorities, carried to Genoa, and imprisoned iu the “Tower.” Released, but refused permission to remain in Piedmont, he proceeded to America, where he remained until I8&4.
