Non-Intercourse.
Wo publish below extracts from a
Comnrthtlcatibri on this subject which
a^petured*£n the Gkronicle & Stniinel, in
reply to’ten' editorial of the Atlanta
American. It is Written by “An Old
iierchant,” who for many years was
■ehgogedin tho Mercantile business and
from his long experience and thorough
knowledge of the subject in all its
bearings, is prepared to give sound,
practical and sensible views. We regret
thatother matter forbids our publishing
tho articlo entire. The ChroiucU says;
We publish with pleasure the commu
nication of “An Old Merchant.” We
agree with him in most of his views as
to Northern aggression, and we are con
vinced that real anti entire non-inter-
course Would be the surest and speedi
est, if indeed it be not the only means,
of bringing the mass of the Northern
people to their senses. Such a stop,
could it be carried out, might lead the
North through blood ana starvation
and bread riots, to a proper view of con
stitutional obligations.
Hut to the communication:
“Doubtless.every friend to hiscountry
now anxiously desires to know what
can be done, to save it from impending
ruin. Shall we continue to strengthen
tho arm, already made powerful by
Southern patronage, for our destruc
tion? No—never. Self-respect, _ the
safety of our families, our dearest rights
forbid it. Our statesmen seem utterly
incompetent to avert the threatened ca
lamity, they are too much engaged in
President making, and with them party
seems paramount to the country’s good.
The people, therefore, must take the
matter in hand, and save the Union, if
indeed it can be saved. Let them lay
aside party shackles and every man and
woman, be their position ever so humble
or exalted, by act and influence pro
mote, by oil proper means, Southern
institutions, manufactures and direct
European importations. This, patrio
tism demands of us. Here I cannot
refrain from earnestly protesting against
the sentiment used in the editorial re
ferred to, that “Non-intercourse is a
fallacy, a humbug.” Such a remark
would come better from a New York or
Boston merchant, but not so well from a
Southerner; when, too, the South is
struggling to be freed from the odious
servitude by which she has been already
too long oppressed. We need not be
told that reliance upon our vast and
varied resources is iniprocticablo, and
that because in a month or a year the
desired good may not be attained, no
effort should be made. All great en
terprises require time and perseverence
to be accomplished, and the great good
designed to be effected by non-inter
course must also be persevered in ; but
never can we be successful, & ''long as
there are many persons faithless and
hopeless, imagining hobgoblins or giants
In the way, and seeking through the
public press to discourage those who are
willing to make an effort to free the
South from this bondage of trade to
tho North, which mainly contributed to
the wealth of her citizens, and in build
ing their palaces, the surplus of whose
cotters is used ’ to destroy our institu
tions, to steal our property and to send
amongst us emissaries and the midnight
assassin. Rather should every good
citizen follow the example of Washing
ton and other patriots of the Revolu
tion, who pledged themselves to non-in
tercourse with Groat Britain, and not to
buy her goods unless from necessity and
then of the lowest price and of the
smallest quantity practicable. Nor
should Virginia’s efforts be sneered at
and pronounced a humbug in doing,
towards the North what Washington
and other worthies did to Great Britain.
It may be asked what has all this to
do with the saving of the Union. Wo
answer that this non-intercourse will
sooner or later caumthe business of mer
chants, manufacturers and their opera
tives and employers North moro or less
to fail, which will soon bring them to
the knowledge of the cause, and they
. will no longer put into high positions
abolitionists and Black Republicans, and
we shall also find these merchants, man
ufacturers with employees, and their
capital, coming South, like pigeons in
pursuit of the most. Our merchants
will greatly increase their direct Euro
pean imports and with increased advan
tage to all concerned, and the South
will become independent and prospe
rous Cur beyond wnat she has ever been
before.
In pursuing non-intercourse, we are
aiding those noble men North, of whom
there are still many, battling for equal
rights of the South and for the safety of
the Union, and who have been unable
through tho ignorance of the masses
whom they have nototherwise been able
to oonrince of their folly in sending un
worthy and wicked men to their halls of
legislation.
Buying goods of our Southern impor
ters from Europe is also treated lightly
by some, notwithstanding the papers of
the country teem with their advortiso-
ments of their imported goods for sale.
It is conceded that at present our im
porters in order to complete their assort
ments must necessarily buy some of
their goods of northern “importers.” It
, is also true that Northern merchants or
jobbers, who sell to our Southern mer-
•chants. buy ofthesame importers, there
fore the profit, which our merchants
toy to theiobbere North, is paid to the
J Southern importer, leaving only one
profit instead of two in tho hands of the
«*-
4torial) that the Northern man although
. an Abolitionist, with h» goods at ten
eente, and his neighbor, a Southerner,
with precisely the same kind of goods
fifl£ra<-that the former will have the
uoferonoe, for such a ease seldom occurs
tnor do we titlieve that even an approx
imation to such a difference in price
would occur so as to induce any man in
fluenced by right principles to buy of
the Abolitionist, as he supposes would
bo done.
Nor do wo believe that goods of South
ern importation would likely be dis
paraged in price when compared with
thoso bought North; on the contrary it
is rcosonablo to suppose they would be
cheaper.
As before stated, our statesmen seem
powerless to save the country. Our great
and patriotic men such as Washington,
Clay, Calhoun and Webster, we have no
longer with us to lead and direct—the
country seems to bo without a wise and
ruling spirit to conduct it through its
impending troubles, to a place of Safety
and peace. Again 1 would say, the peo
ple must use such measures as they can
and we do believe that the course we
have suggested, to b*5 tho only peaceable
remedy for tha salvation of the Un
ion. ,>■. An Old Mkbchant.

Sam Weller’s Valentine.
8©“Wegive to our readers as appro
priate for the 14th February, Sam Web
ler’s Valentine to his sweetheart, with
critical remarks by his Father Tony Wel
ler, Esq.
“To ladies and gentlemen*who are not
in the hubit of devoting themselves
practically to the science of penman
ship, writing a letter is no easy task, it
being always considered tiecessaiy in
such cases for the writer to recline his
head on his left arm, so as to place his
eyes as nearly as possible on a level with
the paper, and while glancing sideways
at the loiters he is constructing, to form
with Ids tongue imaginary characters to
correspond. These motions, although
unquestionably of the greatest assistance
to original composition, retard in some
degree the progress of the writer, and
Sam had unconsciously been a full hour
and a half writing words in small text,
smearing out wrong letters with his little
finger, and putting in new ones which
required going over very often to render
them visible through the old blots,
when he was roused by the opening of
the door and tho entrance of his pa
rent.
“Veil, Sammy,” said the father.
“Veil, my Prooshan Blue,” respond
ed the son, laying down his pen. “What’
the last bulletin ubout mother-in-law ?”
“Mrs. Veller passed a wery good night,
but is uncommon perwerse, and un
pleasant this mornin’—signed upon oath
—Tony Veller, Esq. That’s the lost vun
as was issued, Sammy," replied Mr.
Weller, untying his shawl.
“No better yet?” inquired Sam.
“All the symptoms aggerawated,” re
plied Mr. Weller, shaking his head,—
“But wot’s that, you’re a doin’ of—pur
suit of knowledge under difficulties—eh,
Sammy ?”
I’ve done now,” said Som, with
slight embarrassment; “I’ve been wri-
tin’.”
“So I see,” replied Mr. Weller. “Not
to ativ young ’ooman, I hope, Sammy.”
Why it’s no use a sayin’ it ain’t,” re
plied Sam. “It’s a walentine.”
“A what!” exclaimed Mr. Weller, ap
parently horror-stricken by the word. -
“A walentine," replied Sam. .
“Samivel, Samivel,” said Mr. Weller,
in reproachful accents, “1 didn’t think
you’d ha’ dene it. Arter the warnin’
you’ve hod o’ your father’s wicious pro
pensities, arter all Tvo said to you upon
this here wery subject; arter actiwally
seein’ and bein’ in tho company o’ your
own mother-in-law, vich I should ha’
thought was a moral lesson ns no man
could ever ha’ forgotten to his dyin’ day
I didn’t think you'd hu* done it, Sam
my, I didn’t thunk you’d lia’ done it.”
These reflections were too much for the
good old man. lfo raised Sam’s tum
bler to hU lips and drank off' the con
tents.
“Wot’s the matter now ?”said Sanl.
“Nev’r mind, Sammy,” replied Mr.
Weller, “it’ll be a wery agonizin’ trial
to me at my time of life, but I’m pretty
tough, that's vun consolation, ns the
wery old turkey remarked ven the farm
er Baid ho wos at'eerd he should be oblig
ed to kill him, for the London market.”
‘Wot ’ll be a trial?” inquired Sam.
'To see you married, Sammy—to see
you a deluded wictiin, and thinkin’ in
your innocence that it’s all wery capital,”
replied Mr. Weller - “It’s a dreadful
trial to a father’s foelin’B, that ’ere, Sam-
my.”
“Nonsense,” said Sam. “I ain’t
goin’ to get married, don’t you fret your
self about that; I know you’re a judge
o’ tlieso things. Order in your pipe,
and I’ll read you the letter—thore.”
Sam dipped his pen . into ink to bo
ready for any corrections, and began
with a very theatrical air—
“ ‘Lovely ’ ”
“Stop,” said Mr. Weller, ringing the
bell “A double gloss o’ the inwariable,
my dear.”
“ Very well, Sir,” replied the girl
who with great quickness appeared
vanished, returned, and disappeared.
“They seem to know your ways here”
observed Sam.
“Yes,” replied his father, “I’ve been
here before, in my time. Go on, Sam
my."
“ ‘Lovely creetar’,” repeated Sam.
“ ’Taint in poetry, is it ?” interposed
the futher.
“No, no,” replied Sam.
“Wery (glad to hear it,” said Mr.
Weller.- “Poetry’s unnat’ral; no man
over talked in poetry 'cept a beadle on
boxin’ day, or Warren’s blackin’ or
Rowland’s oil, or some of them low fel
lows; never you let yourself down to
talk poetry, my boy. Begin again, Sam-
Mr. Weller resumed his pipe with
critical solemnity, and Sam once more
commenced, ana read os follows.
“ Lovely creetur 1 feel myself a dam
med’ ”—
“That ain’t proper,” said Mr. Weller,
taking his pipe from his mouth.
“No; it ain’t dammed,” observed Sam,
holding the letter up to tho light, “it’ 1
word,” said Mr. Weller, after a few mo.
ments reflection. “Go on Sammy.”
“ ‘Feel myself ashamed and complete
ly circumscribed in a dressin’ of you, for
you are a nice gal and nothin' but it.’ ”
“That’s a wory pretty sentiment,”
said the cider Mr. Weller, removing his
pipe to make way for the remark.
“Yes, I think it is rather good," ob
served Sam, highly flattered.
“Wot I like in that ’ere style of wri-
tin’,’’ said the elder, Mr. Weller, ‘is that
there ain’t no callin’names in it,—no
Wenuses, nor nothin’o’ that kind; wot’s
the good o’ callin’ a . young ’ooman a
Wenus or a angel, Sammy ?’’
“Ah! what, indeed?” replied Sam.
“You might jist as veil call her a
griffin, ora unicorn, ora king’s arms at
once, whioh is wory well known to be a
col-lection o’ fabulous animals,” added
Mr. Weller.
“Just as well,” replied Sam.
“Drivo on, Sammy,” said Mr. Weller.
Sam complied with the request, and
proceeded as follows; his father continu
ing to smoke with a mixed expression
of wisdom and complacency, which was
particularly edifying.
“ ‘Afore I see you I thought all wo
men was alike.’ '
“So they are,” observed the elder Mr.
Weller, parenthetically.
“ ‘But now,’ contined Sam, ‘now I
find what a reg’lar soft-headed, ink-
red’lous turnip I must ha’ bsen fhr there
ain’t nobody like you though /like you
better than nothin’ at ail.’ I thought it
best to mako that rather strong,” said
Sam, looking up.
Mr. Weller nodded approvingly, and
Sam resumed.
“ ‘So I take the privilidgo of the day,
Mary, my dear—os the gen’lem’n in dif
ficulties did, von he vnlked • out of a
Sunday—-to tell you that tho first and
only time I seo you your likeness was
took on my hart in much quicker timo
and brighter colours than ever a like
ness was taken by the profeel macheen
(wlch p’r’haps you may have heerd on
Mary my dear) although it does finish a
portrait and put the frame and glass on
complete with a hook at the end to hang
it up by and all in two minutes and a
quarter.’ ” ,.
“I am nfeered that werges on tho
metical, Sammy,” said Mp. Weller, du-
iously.
“No it don’t,” replied Sam, reading
on very quickerly,'to avoid contesting
the point.
“‘Except of me Mary my dear as your
walentine and think overwhnt-l’vesaid
My dear Mary I will now conclude.’—
That’s all,” said Sam.”
“That’s rather a sudden pull up, ain’t
it, Sammy ?” inquired Mr. Weller.
“Not a bit on it,” said Sam; “she’ll
visli there wos more, and that’s the great
art o' letter wri.tin’,”
Well',” said Mr. Weller, “there’s
somethin’ in that; and I wish your moth
er-in-law ’u.d only conduct her conwer-
sation on tho same gon-teel principle.—
Ain’t you a goin’ to sign it ?”
“That’s the difficulty,” said Sam; “I
don't know what to sign it.”
“Sign it—Veller,” said the oldest sur
viving proprietor of that name,
'shamecl,’ there’s a tlot there—‘I feel ,UI8Slon-
myself ashamed.’ ”
“Wery good," said Mr. Weller. “Go
on."
“ ‘Feel myself ashamod, and com
plctely cir—.’ I forget wot this here
word is,” said Sam, scratching his head
with the pen, in vain attempts to re
member. . . ,
“Why don’t you look at it, then ?" in
quired Mr. Weller.
“The position very cautiouslv taken
of late by a few 'among us, that tho
South agreed and bound herself by the
settlement of 1850; and the Kansas bill
of 1854, to give up what rights she had
under tho.Constitutiou, to the nt\j adica-
tion of the Territorial Legislatures, and
whether she lose ot win must abide by
her bargain, is perfectly execrable, anil
ought not to be tolerated bne moment.
It is the rankest Douglasism, tlio foulest
squatter sovereignty—unmitigated free-
soilistn. Did any Southern member to
Congress daro tell his constituents that
teas the bargain, at the time—and had lie
told them, would tho South havo ratifi
ed it? On the contrary, did not all the
Southern Representatives tell their peo
ple precisely the contrary—did they not
loudly declare there was no squatter
sovereignty then, and everywhere pro
claim that tho Territorial Legislatures
had no power conferred upon them to
pass laws inimicalXo our rights? It is
too late in the day now to talk of any
such bargains—not too late perhaps to
benefit Presidential aspirants for the
nomination, ns they who put forward tho
feeler doubtless imagined— but too late,
as we sincerely trust, to secure the
sanction of any respectable portion
of the Southern people.— C'hroneclc d:
Sentinel.
Tho Savannah Ifepublican says tho
foregoing resolutions “set forth the on
ly doctrine the South should submit to
in the premises.” So say wp, and so
says every Southern man who is not a
partisan Democrat. Upon this platform
with what the Chronicle calls “the right
sort of a Southern man for President,”
we will most heartily and to the best of
our ability support a “Constitutional
Union” party, and we believe it will car
ry every Southern State and a sufficient
number of the Northern States to defeat
Stephen A. Douglas or any other Squat
ter Sovereignty candidate who may
be nominated by the Charleston Con
vention.

“Won’t do,” said Sam. “Never sign
a walentine with your own name.”
“Sign it ‘Pickvick,’ then,” said Mr.
Weller; “it’s a wery good name, and a
easy one to spell.
“Tho wery thing,” said Sam. “1
could end with a werse; what do you
think?”
“I don’t like it, Sam,” rejoined Mr.
Weller. “I never know’d a respectable
coachman as wrote poetry, 'cept one. ns
made an affectin’ copy o’ werses the
night afore he wos hung for a highway
robbor; and he wos only a Cambervell
man, so even that's no rule.”
But Sam was not to be dissuaded from
the poetical idea that had occurred to
him, so he signed the letter-^-
“Your love-sick
Pickwick.”
A'nd having folded it, in a very intricate
manner, squeezed a down-hill direction

Slavery in the Territories.
4. Resolved, That neither Congress nor
a Territorial Legislature, whether by
direct legislation or legislation of an in
direct and unfriendly nature, possess
the powor to annul and impair the
constitutional right of any citizen of the
United States to take his slave property
into the common Territories, out it is
the duty of the Federal Government
there to afford for that, as for - the
species of property, the needful pro
tection; and if experience should at
any time provo that the judiciary does
not possess power, to insure adequate
protection, it will then become the duty
of Congress to supply such deficiency.

organized Territory of the United States
when they rightfully form a constitu
