A Slight Difference of Opinion. ! the rights of slaveholders. . No man,
The Southerner & Advertiser of the they say, can have property ill man.—
19th last., says: -We believe Mr.
tkutitaT Keraug, lu. U. 1800.
Harper’s Weekly.
A fialeigh correspondent of the Pe
tersburg Expreu says
"I Was present when Judge Saunders
told Mr. Pomeroy, proprietor erf a large
book store in this place, to stop Harpers
Weekly «hdl Monthly Magazine on ae-
eottttt of the fact that G. W. Curtis one
Of the editors is an abolitionist, and that
otte of the Harper's has bsen contribu
ting money for the relief of escaped
slave# in Canada. This is a noble ex-
ampler and should be promptly follow
ed Dy every true Southern man and wo-
?: Curtis Mhemsn who was re-
eently Interrupted by hisses while ma
king an abolition speech in Philadel
phia. The man who created the dis
turbance was arrested, but discharged
by the magistaate upon the ground that
the speech was incendiary in its char
acter.
But there is one other fact we wish to
bring before the Southern publio in con
nection with the foregoing. It is that
“Harper’s Weekly” contains an adver
tisement of “Helper’s Impending Crl
eis’’ styled “A live book” “that is crest,
ing such excitement in Congress.” Wo
do not deny the editors the right to“ad
mit in their paper anything they may
may deem proper, but we do think it is
an insult to their Southern readers of
whom thoy have thousands, and : a be
trayal of the confidence reposed in
them to insert in large type an adver
tisement of a book which is treasona
ble in its design and a declaration of
war against the South. There are hun
dreds of porsons in this Beotion who
from curiosity or a worse motive will be
induced by this advertisement to buy
this book and thereby swell the profits
of the infamous publisher. His sales
have already reaohed about one hun
dred thousand and increasing at the
rate of a thousand or more a day.
Why will the Southern people so stul
tify themselves by patronizing Northern
periodicals which insult them every
time they enter their houses? Andwhy
will editors of Southern papers notice
the same in terms of highest commen
dation when they return such base in
ingratitude by covertly thrusting a dag
ger into our very vitals ? If it is neces
sary that papers from tho North of Ma
son A Dixons line should be read at ,tbo
South, let our people subscribe to those
that neveV attempt directly or indirectly
to-do us harm. There are a few that
are conservative such as the “N. Y. Day.
Book,” “Journal of Commerce” and
and “Boston Courier,” and they are
among the ablest and most reliable for
commercial and political news that aro
published. We doubt not the JV. Y.
Herald which has so large a circulation
at the South, and now pretend* to be so
1 constitutional and devoted to our rights,
but attempted a few yean ago to put in
the hands of our enemies the control
of the Oorernment contains more in
cendiary articles, more abolition ser
mons and treasonable harangues than
the Tribune or Poet or any other anti
slavery paper. How long will the
Southern people thus degrade them
selves? How long act the part of sim
pletons and madmen?
Because of tho well grounded appre
hension felt by Northern merchants thst
the Southern trade is about to be with
drawn from them, they are zealous 'and
earnest in their protestations of conser
vatism and advocacy of our constitu
tional guaranties. And if we would
pursue tho samo course towards the pro
prietors of Northern papers and period
icals we would soon see them manifest
ing a like seal and earnestness in our
defense. Let us exclude them from
our offices, our counting houses and our
drawingrooms atonoeand forever, and
substitute in their places such papers ecs
the' Field <£- fireside and such-magazines
as the Southern literary Messenger. Let
us withdraw our support from our ene
mies and bestow it upon our friends
Then will we be acting like rational be
ings.' ’
Tns Carolina Commission.—Col. C,
G. Memminger, Commissioner for South
Carolina to Virginia, addressed a largo
concourse of people for four hours, on
the 20th inst., at Richmond. He con
tended that the South should demand
new guaranties for the protection of her
rightsand property, and urged that a
Convention of the Southern States bo
called, to consider the relations ex
isting between the North and South.—
A resolution has been introduced into
the Virginia Legislature that Atlanta,
Go., be the place of holding the Con
vention. , ,, r r
Small Fox.—Wo notice in our ex-
accounts of the prevalence,
to a llmited extant, of small pox in

r phis Tenn. ■
. - aflr Hamilton Cooper, Esq., has been
appointed District Attorney ter ihe
Southern District of Georgia, tics
Josaph Ganahi, Esq,,.r«igned.
Douglas has boon abused enough,- as tho
question qf Slavery in the Te&itories is set
tled.”
On the other side, Senator Clay of
Alabama, in a letter to the members of
the Legislature of his State says :
•The friends and foes of slavery agree
that the expansion of its territorial
limits is its life and their contraction its
death. Nebraska, Kansas, Washington,
Utah, New Mexico and the Indian
country, will form a dozen large States.
Arizona, Dacotah and Jefferson are ask
ing separate territorial organizations.—
The President proposes to pounoe upon
Mexico, for past grievances and future
security; which, whether intended or
not, would result in annexing all of it
to the United States—and Gen. Lane
(the noble Senator from Oregon, who is
faithful among the faithless to our rights)
assures us from personal observation, of
what Southern Senators have long since
heard that ootton of the finest quality
is indigenous to Arizona.
With these facts before ns, shall we
prepare for the ill-fame and ignominious
fate of felons, by yielding the Black
Republican demand, and nover get or
ask any protection af slave property, any
where, by Congress, and nover venture
beyond our present jail-limits with a
negro slave? Or shall we compromise
our constitutional and vital right of ex
pansion by immigration into our com
mon territories, by taking the United
States Constitution and tho fugitive
slave not as our only armor of defence
—as urged by somo of our Northern
Democratic allies—and, repudiating all
Congressional intervention to enforce
the constitution, and to shield us from
robbery of our slaves and their incite
ment to rebellion by John Browns,
trust to the justice of Territorial Leg
islatures and the jnorcy of emigrant
aid, anti-slavery crusaders from the
North and from Europe? Or shall we,
at the hazard of losing our Northern al
lies, the only men of the North who
will even give us a fugitive slave law—
that only Northern hook on which to
hang a hope of holding a slave outside
of our present boundary—insist on tho
full measure of our constitutional right
to, protection of our property, by all de
partments of the Fedoral Government,
Legislative, Executive & Judicial, when
ever Federal prevails over State juris
diction—whenever ussailed or endanger
ed by lawless violence or territorial leg
islation ?
Ontheso momentous questions hang
our prosent status in the Union, and, I
apprehend, our future existence as free
and sovereign States, They must be
decided ere long, and should bo decid
ed deliberately, positively and finally.
If you decide to yield to Black Republi
can demands, to propitiate their favors
and preserve the Union, at all hazards,
then anticipate them by prohibiting the
introduction of slaves into tho State, by
enbouraging their owners to manumit
or remove them from the State, and
by providing the best and surest means,
in your power, for gradual emancipa
tion ana removal of them beyond our
limits. If you decide to give up all
right or claim to protection by Congress
of that property in the territories or
elsewhere, beyond a fugitive slave law,
in order to save our Northern allies and
preserve the Union by 'Northern and
Southorn Democrats, then request your
Senators and Representatives to resist
the acquisitions of more territory, the
organization of any more territories,
tho increase of your army and navy,
and all appropriations for the civil gov
ernment or military defence of our ter
ritories; for it will bo suicidal generosity,
or dishonorable subserviency, to expend
your blood and treasure in acquiring ter
ritories, supporting their civil officers,
making roads and building forts and ar
senals in them, maintaining armios and
navies for their defence, and providing
for all their moral and physical wants,
if you are not to have a share in them,
or hold your slaves in them, by authori
ty of the Constitution and laws made in
pursuance thereof, despite the opposi
tion of your Northern joint-tenants.”
In expressing his opinion tkat the
"question of Slovery in the Territories
« not settled” we tremble for the dis
tinguished reputation of Mr. Clay. We
are fearful that he hors not given tho
subject that deep and thoughtful atten
tion its importance demands, and we
would entertain serious apprehensions
lest he should be read out of his party,
on account of his.“lieresis,” were it not
that “his services may be needed in the
approaching Presidential election.” We
hope our contemporary will take this in
to consideration, when he is inclined to
take such a step. If Mr. Clay’s services
should not be needed, then we say show
him no mercy.
g^-Thc following is an oxtract from
the speech of the Hon. J. W. H. Under
wood in the House of Representatives,
on the 16th inst. It places Mr. Sher
man’s roUtion to the Helper Book in a
new and a strong light:
Mr. Clerk, when we assembled in
this Hall, ou the first Monday in De
cember last, we found upon the floor of
this House, forty members who hod
“cordially indorsed” Helper’s Impend
ing Crisis of tho South, a book which
proposes arson, murder, rapine, insur
rection, and servile war. Among other
sentiments in that book will be found
those appended to the resolution offered
by the gentleman from Missouri.—
Among the signers of that cordial in
dorsement is the honorable gentleman
from Ohio, the candidate of the Block
Republican party for Speaker.
In response to the gentleman from
Virginia, [Mr. Millson,] that candidate
said that, once for all, he would not be
catechized. He explained by a letter
from Mr. Blair how he came to sign the
recommendation, and one from Gover
nor Morgan, of New York, and would
simply say, he had said five times that
he was opposed to an v interference with
the rights of slaveholder* in the States
bv the people of the free State*. I have
already shown how that party regard
the people of tho non-slaveholding
State*. The peculiar feature of that
book is that it is addressed to the non-
slaveholder in the slaveholding < States,
and to tho negroes in the same State*;
and the honorable gentleman did not,
in his disclaimer, meet the case.;, and I
assert that to this day he-, .lias.-not'dis
claimed, on the floor of this House, the
sentiments, opinions, and doctrines of
that book; and he utterly refuses to do
so. He refuses to speak on account of
the pendencyof the resolution of the
gentleman from Missouri. Let him
continue to do so; it is a matter of taste.
On this floor aro. the Representatives of
fifteen slaveholding States. Prima facie,
the case is against the honorable mem
ber from Ohio. There is the indorse
ment, stating his opinion of us r and it is
not a very complimentary one. We are
the party injured; he is the wrong-doer,
and it is for him to make the amend. 1
do not ask him explain. 1 would scorn
to do it. We understand how to protect
ourselves. We have done him no wrong.
We are seeking to ma|te a rocord for
ourselves.
I cordially approve tho resolution of
the gentleman from Missouri. I am
anxious to vote for it. I ask no expla
nation ; it was due to us that it should
have been made if any could bo ; nope
satisfactory has been made. Then we
stand thus: the indorsement is here;
tho gentleman does not explain ; we
take it ns it is, and say that no one who
indorses thoso sentiments is fit fo be
Speaker of this House. I am willing to
say .it, and vote for it every day of this
Congress, and at the end of this Con
gress. It* the honorable gentleman in
advertently signed that cordial indorse
ment he should have been glad of an
opportunity to say so, and to have seized
the opportunity to disclaim the senti
ments of the book. 1 have always un
derstood it ns ail evidence of true man
hood to repnirun injury unintentionally
done to another’s feelings. But, sir,
•‘de gustibus nil disputandum let it bo
understood, however, that the honora
ble gentleman never lias used the words
put into his mouth by the gentloman
from Tennessee; ho lias never disclaim
ed the opinions, sentiments, aims, and
objects of the Helper Book.
There is another tiling that should
not bo forgotten. That man Helper,
some months prior to that “cordial in
dorsement,” was exposed by the honor
able Senator from North Carolina in the
Senate, and denounced os a thief, and
this was placed upon fhe records of
Congress; and not only that, this sipne
Helper assaulted a member of this
House [Mr. Craige, of North Carolina,]
in his scut about this same work; and, 1
respectfully submit, tho honorable gen
tleman from Ohio was too careless,, too
unmindful of public events wlicti he
indorsed this author’s work without
knowing tho contents of the book.—
Sir, if ever there was a clear case of
criminal negligence, this is the one,-if it
were a crime to indorse cordially'that
Helper work.
“William ,11. Seward a Georgia
School-Master—The Original Adver
tisement.”
‘Under the above head tho Albany Patriot5
republishes from the ‘‘Georgia Journal’*
of March 1819, published at Milledge-
ville by John B. Hines, tho original ad
vertisement of Senator Seward . as • a
school-master. Ho is spoken of by' the
trustees as “late of Union College - New
York from which institution he comes
highly recommended as a young gentle
man of good moral character and distin
guished for his industry and literary qapiirc-
ments.” The Patriot says:
There is one feature in the Senator's
character when a youth, that he bus
well prezervad in his advanced life.—
When he came to Georgia, he came Un
der a practical assertion of his “higher
law” doctrine, lie came os a fugitive
fromjustico. He hud rebelled against
parental authority, and had tied from
liis fathers roof, that lie should be under
no other restraint than that of some
high, or rather very low law of his own
making. Another similar feature-is,
that his father demanded his fugitiye
from tlie Georgia planter under whose
roof ho had sought protection, "and he
refused to deliver him up. Mr. Soward,
thus in early life hud a taste of tlie
practical working of the fugitive slave
law, and did'nt like it. lie may have
thought in opposing the execution of
that law, he was following the precedent
set in his own case by the noble-hearted
Georgian. We do not think that he
has ever publicly alluded to the fret
that he was once & citizen of a Southern
State.
Ho seems desirous to altogether ig
nore that portion of his history. Wheth
er for weal or woe, wo desire to give it
all possible publicity. . liis is not the
only instance by hundreds, of persOHs
who have partaken of Southern hospi
tality, and have tlion gone back North,
and possotl the ballauce of their lives
in slandering Southerners. And more
of such aro to be found among sdiofil-
musters and mistresses, than any other
class of persons seeking a home and
employment at the South.
A Picture.
A locality at the Five Points known
a* Cow Bay is about to bo converted into
a children’s play ground. Here is a
description of it from tho New York
Tribune:
“For many years we have been familiar
with this terrible place, and lieurd of
nnd witnessed deeds so dark and fear
ful tlmt an accurate description of them
would be deemod incredible. Tlie
floors and walls of almost every house
and room have been dyed with tho
blood of some poor murdered wretch,
whoso agonized shriek of “help 1 help 1
murder ! murder 1” has boon . drowned
by the louder voices nnd bacchanalian
shouts of the miserable nnd hardened
wrctchos around him. Thoro, just by
tlie corner, Stockoy Stabbed a negro,
and a swarm of wretches gathered,
cursing and laughing while his life’s
blood was ebbing fast away. Down
there once lived "drunken Phil,” a
desperado. Scarce a day passed that
some poor dead or dying wretch was not
taken front his vile den. Finally, in a
drunken rage, ho stabbed liis own
brother to tho heart, and is now a raving
maniac on Blackwell’s Island. In sight-
now, as they tear away the partitions, is
the room—now tenatud by a negro who
claims two white wives mid one black—
where twenty.human beings have been
seen to die—grandfather, grandmother,
children,grandchildren—all drunkards,
thieves and boggars,” .
Yet when, during all tho long years
of blood and wretchedness and degra
dation-which no'words can fittingly de
scribe that this typo of pandemonium
was permitted to exist through, was
there ever an Appeal made for funds to
abolish tliis loutlisomo lazar house, this
den of unclean things, this very focus
of all the most horrid crimes that hu
man depravity can conceive? When
did tho editors of tlie Tribune nnd Post
subscribe a hundred dollars apiece to
circulate an appeal for Help to wipe out
tlie foul ulcer? When did theroverand
screamers, almost within the sound of
tlie cries of “murder, murder, help,
help,” which over and anon rose from
Cow Bay, make it tho tlic.mo of tlioir
discussions on tho Sabbath, at prayer
meetings, and on Thanksgiving Days?
When did they ever respond to thoso
agonizing shrieks for “help” made by
wretches stained by every crime in tho
dark catalogue of sin, and almost with
in tho shadows of their tall church
steeples ? When did they over proclaim
a conflict between ordinary civilization,
or even semi-barbarism, and the fright
ful heathen orgies that wore yearly,
monthly, weekly, aye, daily, enacted
within tlie ordinary circuit' of their
common walks? Alas for the inconsis
tencies of bunion nature ?—A r . O. Com.

Loveliness.—What constitutes true
loveliness? Not the polished brow, tlie
gaudy dress, nor the show and parade
of fasliionnblo life A woman may
have all the outward marks of beauty
aud yet not possess a lovely tempera
ment. It is tho benovolent disposition,
the kind acts and Christian deportment.
It is in the heart, whore meekness, and
truth, affection, and humility are found
where we look for loveliness, nor do we
look in vain. Tho woman that can
soothe the wrinkled brow, alleviate tho
anguish of the mind, and pour the balm
of consolation in tlie wounded breast
possesses in an eminent degree, true
loveliness of character. She is the real
companion of man, and does the work
of an angol. It it such a character that
blesses with warmth and sunshine, and
maketh earth to resemble the Paradise
of God.—Amer. Pan.

COTTON SEED FOR SALE.
O F THIS new utul splendid variety, origi
nated and established by the subscriber,
surpassing in production all uplands ami
"Jeitiro” in fineness of staple, which 1 gave
ten years ago to agriculture and commerce,
unit .atabli.lied for it a special demand' with
the tnunitfactnrers at tho “World's Exhibi
tion" in Loudon, and ha, continued to com
mend the highest market valuo of all up-
NinIs.
Ill thosn action, of tho Cotton regi.n,
where ".Sea Islands" havo been introduced
and cultivated as the staple crop, the 1. X. L.
will supercede tlinm when known, being as
line ill staple, and seed well adapted to tins
op'ration of tho long Colton Gins. The crop
bein; more productive, profitable, and relia
ble every way. Tho plant differ, in ehnrac-
tor from-alb other varieties; ' liefng MYdn'g;
vigorous and stocky—leaves deoply serrated,
and presvnt a singular lively, groen glazed
color—bolls long nnd large, frequently two
growing oppositely ut the joints, and ,ingin
ouesat the jiiuotiou of tho main stalk and
brunches | maturing and picking qualities
unrivaled, hearing uniformly until'frontscuts
off the crop.
Has not been subject to tho disease of oth
er Cotton during oiglityoarsexistence.
Having devoted many years to the success
ful and prutticai improvement of tho great
staple product of the South, and testing
severely the relative merits of almost every
variety introduced within tlie last thirty
year*, rignrding also the present active de
mand ami future promise for tho finer class
of upland Cotton in a greater ratio than any
period since tho creation of the Cotton trade,
1 de confidently recommend to the producer
the I. X. L., us tho most valuable and pro
ductive
” SEED.
Also, of the old-fashioned Mexican-breed,
known nil over tho planting region as “Petit,’
or what is'tlio samo thing,'tho “ Gulf Hill”
•oed. which ha, proven itself in the long ren
the health inst, hardiest, and most productive
ever introduced of tho short staples, but was
unfortunately discarded or adulterated by ad
mixtures with wmtliless sub-varieties. These
,«e,l have been preserved pure and unadul
terated for thirty years, nnd are tho identical
*f the fanmu, “Arundo” brand, and main
tained its position at the head of tho New
Orleans market, always bringing more money
the whole crop round, than any other sold in
that market. Any one ono onco familiar
with the original “Mexican” Cotton,, can
randily identify them a, the "Simon pure.”
As for maturing, productive and picking
qualities, no variety, including all tho "Subs”
and “Prelifics" ever originated, excel in anv
one quality* tho Mexican parent. All, ail
exhaust before the season is ended, if a lato
one, excopt tho I. X. L., and the
“McBride,”
A very productive short staple, and a great
favorite with those who know it best, havo
stnullcr seeds than all others, and the only
two varieties that aro uniform and run out
tho maturing season. To plant a crop with
only a single hand does noi meet the promise
of “tho enrly and latter rain.”
Seed in strong n.w sacks of either of tho 1
above kinds, will he delivered on Railroad,
and forwarded by Express when required, to
any point of the cotton rogion, on receipt of
current bills of any Bank of Georgia or Booth
