lourter mQH&Be Me M. DWnSLt, ■. MO. T. IfOVALI., Associate IMttsi 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 various Motions of tbo country—near Macon G*., Montgomery Ala., and Mom- 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?
