, Non-Intervention Arguments
The Non-intervention papers of Qoor-
•' gia led off by the Augusta Uonstitutioncd-
, {ft in order to sustain their untenable
: position before their Southern readers
have adopted the most specious and nb-
sufd arguments.
• With more sagacity than their parti
san contemporaries who so strongly de
nounce Douglas and his “detestable
heresies,” they know that either Doug
las himself or “his man” will be foisted
upon the South by the Charleston Con
vention, and that not one word condern
natory of Squatter Sovereignty will be
permitted to find its way into the plat
form to be adopted by that body. 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.

declared by the Supreme Court, yet if
thero is Territory, and we know there
is, where slave labor is more profitable
than in some <>f the border States, the
institution is weakened by confining it
within its present boundaries. Or in

■ ^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?

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.

nnd that, in that event, his smiles may
fall upon Mr. Breekcnridge, of Ken

friends are tickled by such flattering
promises, it is expected, of course, that

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.
