It therefore beoomes necessary to prepare the Southern Democracy tor this con tingency. None of them have been so bold as to contend that we are not enti tled to Congressional protection in the Territories under the decision of the Su preme Court. The Mobile Register, we believe, is the only papewat the South that has dared to take this position, and this is owing to the bitter hostility of Hon. John For syth its editor to Mr. Buchanan's Ad ministration. But in view of the pres ent divisions in the Democratic party, and the approaching Presidential elec tion, it becomes necessary to hit upon some plan by whiclf they can be harmo liized and be brought up irf solid column to the support of the Charles ton nominee. Mr. Stephens in his last Speech in Augusta advanced the opinion, that slavery could not occupy any more Ter ritory because wo had uot slaves in the Southern States to spare for that pur pose, and lienee it is useless to contend for a right that will never bo of any practical advantage. This has met with great favor from tho National De mocracy. But granting that wo have not slaves enough to supply the demand called for, and even admitting which is not true, that we would not be * injured by yielding to fanatioism a right guar- "of their existence as a party until the last speech, delivered in Congress by one of their representatives, declared in their platforms, their newspaper organs and by their leader,s that Congress had the power and ougliMo exert it to ex clude slavery from the Territories?— And aro we to be told that they will take advantage of a pretext ? Non sense ! But tlic last and flimsiest argument of nil is that non-intervention is the doctrine of the Gncinnnati Platform and the Kansas Bill: that the South has been pledged to this doctrine nnd ought to nliide by Who pledged tho South to any such heresy? Was it the Southern Democ racy? They have ever until recently, when it become necessary to conciliate the Northern Democracy denied that Squatter Sovereignty was contained in those instruments. The South has been “botrayed," not pledged, nnd now that the truth has come to light some have the audacity to call upon us to submit. We rejoice to say that some of the Democracy will not bo sold to Dougins. Wo hope their protestations will not prove to be nil sound intended to influence the nomination at Charles ton. In order to preserve their politi cal integrity, if their principles aro kicked out of the Charleston Conven tion,” they should follow them nnd unite with those who intend to stand by them in good faith. Hon. B. H; HUI, Esq. From the following extract tnkon from a business letter addressed to the Editor of the Atlanta American, the friends of this gentleman will be grnti- liod to learn that ho is convalescing, nnd that his lungs are not so seriously in volved ns was rumored. May lie bo spared for many years yet, to labor for his native State, giving her tho benefit of his wise and patriotic counsel, and contributing to her honor, dignity and fair fume, the lustre of his transcendent genius. The following is the extract?: L.iGraxue, March 5, 1850. “ This fine weather is hotter than medicine ‘for mo. I am up, out, and at work. I am not woll, howovor, but I am improving. Doctors and friends says if I will let business alone for a few months I will be os well as ever. This is a hard condition, but 1 supposo 1 must comply with it.

Or in -—rather.words it is obliged to bo strength ened if introduced into those sections where it pays the highest dividends mid is felt to be an absolute necessi- ■ ^Bdttlie next argument used by these same politicians, and Which itself con tradicts tho one just stated ns drawn from the scarcity ofslaves.is, that where nlavery is profitable thero it will go.— This we believe. The institution will never be abolished in tho cotton grow ing regions as long as tho human fami ly wear clothing and tlio soil produces tho jaw material, and wherever that soil is, thero will bo tho negro also to plow, plant and hoe it. But if Mr. Douglas’ doctrine of Squatter Sovereign ty bo permitted to'become the settled policy of our government, na it will surely do, if he or his man be elected President, then, in the language of Sen ator Fitch of Indiana, “the bold, adven turous, non-elaveholding frontiersmen of tho West, whose moveables include no luxuries, whoso necessaries are road- ily supplied by the axe and .rifle, will go into the Territory, possess themselves of its Legislature and exclude South ern property while tlio owners of that property are pocking up their house hold goods nnd preparing their ohattles for removal.” And we would add that the vast surplus foreign • population in the Northern States under the Kansas Bill are allowed to join tho non-slavo- holding frontiersmen in their work, Tho Southern slaveholder being exolu' ded from the territory with his property by ‘unfriendly legislation,’ it will require many long years for the settlors with all their hatrod against the institution, to discover that it will ho profitable, and then years more to overoomo their prejudices sufficiently to allow its intro duction. In the meantime, abolition Senators and Representatives will bo sent to Congress, and " abolition Presi dential electors to the eleotoral colle^o and thus put every department of Gov ernment in tho hands of the abolition ists. But aaotber argument is used by tho anti-Congressional protection Domo- erats. It is that wlienevei we attempt to enaot a law in Congress to protect slavery in the Territories, it wilt afford the Republicans an opportunity or a pretext to legislate for its exclusion.— This U at shallow as it is ridiculous.— Does any sensible man believe that the Black Republicans want ^pretext to ex clude slavery from the territories by an .act of Congeess? That they are wait ing for any other opportunity than that which numerical strength will afford? ve they not from the very beginning Spring Bonnets. Tho Now York correspondent of the Charleston Mercury tlitfs Writes upon this subjoct: What queer tilings tho spring bonnets orol Have they reached Charleston yet? If not, prepare yourself to be astonished. . The “novelty” is nothing but a revival of our great-great—very great-grandmother's bon net—except that it sets a little further back on tho head. Your memory will be quicken ed, porltaps, when I toll you that the bonnet is of the coal-scuttlo pattern, and that the bow part in front looms several inches above the head, and in shupe and stylo is very much like tho canvas top of a Jersey wagon. The women arc vieing with each other in the enormity of these bow-fronts—as they always do, the doar creatures—in every one of the myriad fashionable fol lies which they adopt—God bless ’em ! But they littlo suspect—the terrestrial angels—that these bonnets make them appear perfectly hideous, and that the curious look with which the young men gr6et them—and which the fair enchan tresses fondly believe to be one of un qualified admiration—is exchanged for a broad grin when their fascinating backs are turned. Wo wonder if all this is so. Alas I Alas! how lamentable to contemplate. If “the exquisite little gem of a bon net,” has to give way for tho huge "wagon top,” wo will “wear the usual badge of mourning on our left arm for tho space of thirty days,” and iv crinoline should be abolished os is spoken of, wo fear our friends would have to wear the badge for us. Wcnovevcould survive it, and we implore tlio Ladies it' they value our lives not to murder us in this Mr. Douglas, are remarkably patroniz ing. At ono time it is given out that in tho event Ql'^ his nomination for the Fresideucy, Warren Winslow, of North Cn'.'ohna, may bo permitted to ride be hind him for the Vice-l’resideney. At another time, it is intimated that that distinguished honor is in visorve for James L. Orr, Benjamin Fitzpatrick, or some other gentleman who may be sup posed to have it in his power of aiding tho “little giant.” Again, we ore clov- erly told that, should he fail to bo the King, lie intends to be the King-Maker, nnd that, in that event, his smiles may fall upon Mr. Breekcnridge, of Ken tucky, or Mr. Stephens of Georgia, or Mr. Johnson of Tennessee. If the vanity of these gentlemen und their friends are tickled by such flattering promises, it is expected, of course, that though they may not openly favor the nomination of Douclns, they will nt least bo respectful anu silent, that they j may not incur his displeasure, and thereby destroy all chances for the good that may be awaiting them. the Knntcau province; and he sn-_g and snuttted them into ‘om-m-luject’ nnd ‘suni-m-mioct’ with a kind of solemn shake or .quiver as no tolled along.

Supl Jiay-.V Southerner, who rasidos in De troit, Midi., bus opened an agency in timt city to enublo fugitive slaves in Cunuda, to return, if they wish, to their owners in the .Southern .States. Many of tho fugitives are said to bo in a star ving condition, and would willingly re turn if they had the means. way. ®ay*The following front an old Album is excellent: “A good wife should be like three things; which three things she should not bo like.” “1st.—She should be like a snail, to keep within her own house; but sho should not bo like a snail, to carry nil she has upon her baok. 2nd.—Sho should bo like an echo, to speak when she is spoken to ; but she should not be liko an echo, always to have the last word. 3rd.—She should be like a town clock, always to keep time and regularity ; but sho should not be like a town clock, to speak so loud that all the town may hear her.” A Bold and Successful Swindle. Some week or ten days ago, a staid, respectable, middle-aged looking man -made his appoarance in the city armed with letters of introduction to five of the most respectable business houses, purporting to be from Hon. W. L. Yan cey of Alabama, recommending the benrer.as a man of means nnd worthy of credit. His report of himself was that he was iv negro trader, nnd in the' course of business at Montgomery, had taken a number of planters’ drafts on their factors at Mobile, which had been accepted, aqd which he desired to get discounted. So cautiously nnd deeply had his plans be .;; '.aid, that in each of the five firms to whom he hud letters, there was a director in some bank in the city. Plausible, however, as his tales were, lie was re:'i • I by two banks— the Bank of Commerce, and tlio Bank of Savannah—bis third elforl however, was mors successful, ns lie induced the directors at the State Bank to believe his statements, und got drafts to the extent of twenty-one thousand dollars discounted, lie received 'the proceeds inState Bank notes and departed, since which time lie has not been heard from. Suspicions were excited, and an investi gation proved that nil the papers were forged.—Sao. Rep. Doing the State some Service. We learn from the Savannah Morning News, of the 7th insl., t/int tho follow, ing sentences wore passed upon persons found guilty nt the lost term of Chat ham Superior Court. Eleven to impris onment in the Penitentiary—for terms ranging from two to fifteen years, for larceny, manslaughter, vagrancy, rob bery and forgery. Four to lines and imprisonment in the county jail for six ty and ninety days—for simple larceny, Three to fines of $100 each for arsault and battery. Two to fines of $150 each for keeping open a tippling houses on the Sabbath, and one to fine of $50 for selling liquor to slaves. The criminul docket of Chatham Superior court shows pretty good “clear ance papers,” BGyPetitions have been addressed to the Legislature of Ohio, asking them to appoint a day of fasting nnd prayer to atone for the 6in they committed by ap propriating five thousand dollars for drunkenness nnd debauchery, in that treat given to tho Legislatures of Ken tucky and Tennessee.

Every boat from New Orlenns is crowded, and it is estimated thut not less than twelve to eighteen hundred persons arrive in the .Stute every week by way of tlio Gulf.
