The Montgomery Confederation taken u* to
task, for yielding to Col. Stanford the feuding
position in foe xnti-Stot* Aid uauipaign of Dfo7,.
in Alabama, and not mentioning tbs name of

der. Winston, by foo multitude of his
on various subjects, had created rm ftnpswafoa
that his opposition, which he renflnofl to ground*
of paltry, as much the result ofpersohal am
bition and obstinacy ns of any real and fixed
judgment against flute uid.
lint we wads no till union lo ihe period of li*ie
in whteh Gov Winston Mud. “We would not

won In his opposition to fftate Aid In Ahibutrm”
from 1 ana to JS36. That wan not the time to
which otr argument referred, WespekoOl Mfoff
and surely, if our worthy rtiftsmporary of M*’
yfHMfg bed been familiar with the history of poll
ties in Alabama, in the Spring he would
not refuse “the championship'* of that war to
W*. V. Bevronn.
The Senior Editor of the C’opfflfliirttlun bad

We jmreeive with satisfaction that the demo

endorsed hint to the democracy vs the Kiltie, hy

a vary general doslfe to send him a delegate to

Tho Ctiti ori'eu. t amphtil and Ncfirher
We earnestly invite the attention ol our rid
ers to this document, to be found in another col
umn. It embodies nil that need be said in find!*
catkin of the eourso of the filefruliv* Committee,
and in oeodomnation of tho unfair and illegiti
mate action, la reference to the Charleston Con
vention, recently taken by a portion of the Ik’ui
uoratic wetubert of the LegialaUmi. Tn the sum©
number of the /Wera/ Vnivn, from which this
card I* taken, we find a report of the notion of the
Democratic members of tho Legislature in Itftft;
when delegates were appointed to the Cipoiuuatl
Convention. Tkia redord ia brought forward, we
presume, as a precedent to justify tho recent action
of our Deinocrutia Legislators. A Lure Inspection
of tile facta will expose tho rottenness of tbo sap
port. The only point of agreement is, that both
Convent jobs were c plied by the Democratic uictn
bersoftbe Legislature. It U iu rerpect to poluU
in whiab they differ that we think the Lkunocracy
of the State ia called upon to disregard what baa
been done, and to aet for itself. “Tn 13*5, on ob
jection was made t< the lugieUii.ru luwvaiucut.---
Til* call was acquiesced in Wythe party press and
people throughout the State. In l&>9, juior to
the eall of the Convention, a solemn and earnest
protest was uttered by an unanimous Demon ratio
prem against It. fn iHftft, /**fy-#6rdays notice
woe given to the people in which to mCrt In pri
mary ossomblios, appoint and instruct delegator.
Iu ldW, a notice of tijfioru days was given. Tb*
facts alone, justify the Democracy in repudiating
the action of a portion of their Logi.daturs. fu
addition, however, we have the call of lb Exec
utive Committee, The appointed agent vs the
party for this twain©**, asking the people to re
float calmly upon the perturbed and threatening
condition of affairs, and send delogntel to Mil
iodgeville, In March next, ehurgei with the duty
of representing tbetr opinions in respect thereto.
This suita the people best and tb*jr will abide by

From ftn exDad taken from the New York
firmld, which wc publish below, it will bo seen
that (his notorious character has, at length, at
tracted the notice of tbe government.
Since the landing of (ho Wanderer’s cargo,
this individual has, through the public press and
by every vehicle of coinmumeution by which bo
oould roach the public ear, atmoanued his eon*
nection pifo foe vessel and her voyage.
Indeed. #0 bpld bad he grown In tho security
that his northern Imnw afforded from govern
mental persecution, that he essayed an announce
motff of book ho intended to publish, contain
ing a full account of foe voyage aud all Us in
• m lent*.
Hut la tbe face of all fbis, tho vigilant head of
tho Treasury Department and his corps of hire
ling spies, Hoewingly MUMfomd in blissful ignor
anee of his oflonev or whereabout*, while every
Sunthrtu man suspected of any cunnoetien direct
or Indirect with tho Wanderer or her enterprise
were huutodovcn tu the sanctity of foeir homes
by tho Fetloral authorities. A most* striking
comtAcirtary upoft tbe even handed Justice and
protection offered to uU citizen* by foe govern
■neat.
And yet, without An exposwof this matter, tho
prcSe would teem with approbatory oxprcmdma*
of foe vigilance uud activity us the Federal au
thorities, as displayed in tbe aired of fob same
Korn hum. We opine that we conld name the
party who gave the hint that produced this arrest
and recant political movements in Georgia,
doubtless bmttouod its conHuiniuation. A strong
ly drawn comparison between the cases of Parn-
Uam aud Currie, would not have formed an agree
a Ido subject for a newspaper article just uow,

The Koufo Americans have bed a caucus to
night, which lasted about four hours, to consider
a proposition from tho democrats that the former
unite with the latter. The programme was that
ts foe Hufo Americans ceubl proute for their
candidate twenty-seven voles, that democrat
would go to them and do their beet to wleot the
man whom they would select, but upou a failure
if the democrat* could procure for foeir own tutu
didate (Mr. Voooek,) ninety -three votes, that tho j
American,* should go ovor and help ett him.— j
After a free discussion of this proposition, the
Americans respectfully declined.
The organ of the democrats wa* Governor
Winslow, of North Carolina. There were twenty
two Houth American* present; Mr. Davis, of
Maryland, was tho nbsentoe.

were all moonshine, and ought nut to be hooded,

hut no itotioii wan takon, tuasmuch as the gener

and the vote of Mr. Davis, of Maryland, with,
]wrhaps, one or two other democrats and South
Americans, would earry it whenever the resolu
tion in it# favr was presented, which it was
thought would Wu Monday w Tuesdny. All
of the J*uth Americans wilt eventually vote for
the plurality rule, but are net quite prepared to
do so in a body at a period so early ae dosigtiatod
above.

11 He said, referring to tbs Teeent Union demon
strations, that though there were more or lent grati
fying, as evincing a returning sense of justice at
the North, yet they amounted to nothing. They
were not the (roc index of public opinion. The
test of public opiuiou wa* through the balfot box,
and looking to this teat ho found that New Eng
land stood here arrayed in solid phalanx against
the constitutional rights of the flouth, that New
York stood here with but four or five representa
tive* disposed to befriend tbe Mouth and Southern
rights, and the same was true in a quarter of les
ser extent, fn regard to Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Other ♦states, when h*> looked at these indications
he wa* not to be lulled into security by demon
stratum* at Union meeting*. The patriotic (lo
clnratWis and eloqrtent vindication of the Union
were but an the singing of Circe, “the vofee of
tbo charmer, charming never so wisely,” lulling
the Mouth aud deceiving the North in regard to
tbe stupaa4ou*ness/f the present crisis. If they
were In carn-st in these declarations let them
givetoths Houth something practical, substan

of (bo North and Fast with their count lest pecu
liar production* factory capital—fishing inter
ests ol rivet, sea and coast, arc bat a trifle of
overplus of tho rerenuer from the cotton, rice,

proportion the South will exhibit, whon tbe aven
ues ot different elements of her inherent riche*
arc dwtelopba, we cannot estimate. The figures
will show au extraordinary prepondoranee in fa
vor of the South.
If now, to-day, yo eontrol forty-firo per cent,
of tbe wealth of the Republic, with * few !*d
iug elements, with a sparse population—an illiffii
table territory, what our future destiny rosy be.
we cannot predict. That it Will boa glorious
>n, we cannot doubt. The silly attitude of
Northern fanaticism, evinced in their rhetorical
denuttQlnilff&s and puny miariles of vituperative
slang and billingsgate upon the stomp and in *.ur
legislative balls, are bnt proofs of the old adage
—“corses, like chickens, always come home to
roost,’’ Even now foe spirit of the deluded and
insane Brown, the tool of the designing deroa-
U n>wifta* w their r..rei.n

of tnni.ler, •■aj ins. and civil strife. One has be
come a maniac—other* will soon follow, until tbe
whole cr4w reap the “whirlwind.” As it iv, we
have no soars for vur future.
The South lives upon her own reeources—and
the etabltbruem of a thorough system of manu
facturing to eousnme our staple, thus avoiding
the onerous and oppressive indirect taxetion of
th- North, will place us on a footing with owr
rivals for fuimtrdnl precedence, uni elevate u
to the memt of great nas? -the producer# and con-
sumers of the most Important intereet# in the
country—with their profits gleaned by ourselves.
The time is approaching for the North to open
her stupid sye-ball*. and see facts that will open
their still more stupid minds to the troths of tbs
ameliorating results of our peculiar institution in
t# action upon the degraded African. Iron
bands, uniting North and South, will, in a few
years, acquaint those ignorant men of the North
m their visits to the happy fields of the South,
of the true genius of slave labor: reason will re
sums her *whv, and when the race of madmen of
the North been annihilated hy their own
folitical petards, the masses will shout at the
annere of tolerance, nnfurled upon the heights
of Bunker Hill by the slav#.bolder of Tennessee
and Kentucky ; the Southern lady, with her well
fed, warmly-clad nurse, will walk the streets of
the Northern cities unmolested and undisturbed.
This will he the grand finale of the •‘irrepreesible”
eentiet—i. e. If the South remain firm and uai
ted. ft must be a position demanded by tlie pre
sent exigences. Every stalk of cotton—every
shrub that glisten with foe rioe of the Carotins?,
and every cane that grows with its load of swebt
ness, are so many tongues to tell the North of
their folly, and prove tho potency of Southern
principles and Southern wealth.

made for a Convention of th* Democratic party of

purpose of appointing delegates to the National
Convention, to be held at Charleston, in April
next. And, whereas, from the fact, that to short
a notice wa* given of foe call of said Convention,
it would have been impossible for a considerable
portion of the counties iu the State to have boon
represented in said Convention. And where**, It
further appears to us, that a majority of tbe Ex

mad* and published a resolution, calling a Con
