Edward Everett of Mass. • • Judge Longstreet’s Letter. ■ We publish on the " first page the ex cellent letter of Judge A. B. Longstreet, delegate from the United States to the International Statistical Congress recen tly in session in London. Our readers will remember the insult offered by Lord Broughman to Mr. Dallas, and through-hipoa 8 United States Minister to Great Britain to our country. While the press generally, wijjj^-the exception of course of the Black Republican papers, ore justly indignant, there is still some difference of opinion as to Mr. Dallas’ silence under the circum stances. As for ourselves ,we were re' joiced to know that he treated it with that contempt which can only be ex’ pressed by silence. He was not a dole, gate, and although tendered a seat upon the platform, was not entitled to the floor. This fact made* Lord Brougham’s conduct still more inexcu sable, and deprives his apology after wards made, that he was merely calling attention to a statisticalfact, that a negro was present, of all its force, and reduces it to a flimsy, absurd attempt to justify himself for a palpable violation of courtesy and common sense. If the presence of a negro was a statistical /ajk was the conclusion of the Presidem’s opening address the time to allude to it, and was Mr. Dallas, occupying*’ an hfijtjrary seat in the assembly by invita- . tion, the person to whom pointedly to give the information 1 If it was merely a statistical fact, why not address the proper person ? Did it receive any ad ditional si gnificance from the circum stance that Mr. Dallas represented a country where negroes were held in a state of slavery? The reply of the negro, aqd the applause of the audience answer these questions to the noble Lord’s shame. While we commend Mr. Dallas’ si lence we also admire Judge Longstreet’s scathing letter. He was our Represen tative in the Congress, and it was his duty to sustain our honor. ; He feus done it at the proper time and in the proper manner, and his conduct will meet the approbation of our govern ment,and of all citizens who do not per mit their hatred of one section of their country to extinguish their national pride. .. 4 , A Poor Joke, or an Alarming Reality. A letter was picked up on Broad street last Saturday, purporting to have beeli written by an Abolitionist in Bos- Abolitionism in Texas—Particulars from Dr. M<jIf,-JohSSoii—Hangings, Crops, &c., Ac. A friend allows us to copy'a portion of a letter from his correspondent, Dr. McKenzie Johnson, formerly/of this city, is Austin county, TeiumBkaM late date: ? ' . "We have quite • a stir among us.-nbre on account of soriVe negro insurrection! ary movements that hbve been. discov ered a little north of us, and even as near to us as some 20,or 26 miles. The little town of Dallas tras totally destroy ed by fire under very suspicious circum stances ; and, just afterwards’ some ne gro men under the influence of liquor, called upon .their master, armed, and informed him that they; were free and wanted him to discharge them from his service and pay them fpr all the work they had done for him. He had the presence of mind to put them off till next day, by telling' them that if they were free he did not want them-to work for him for nothing, and that he would collect his money and pay them off. As soon as he got rid of them, he obtained .assistance and had them tak en up. TIfey confessed that they had been instigated by certain white men,- and gave pretty much the same account of their plans that others did, at some distance off. They were to .rise, on election day, after mossacreing the wo men and children,- seize upon all the fire-arms in the houses'and attack the men at the polls. The citizens, in that neighborhood, succeeded in capturing three of the white men and hung them. * * * » * , * Our citizens met in mass meeting and resolved themselves into a Vigilance Committee and appointed patarols for each neighborhood; all pledihg them- slve3 to servo as such patrol every night, or as often ns called upon by the offi- Ratification Meeting in Chattooga County. According to, previous notice a large and enthusiastic meeting of theoithsens of Chattooga oounty met in the Court House this day for the purpose of ap~ pointing-delegates, to the Convention to assemble at Milledgeville on the 13th- inst. ' The meeting was organized by calling Lewis Millican Esq., to the chair, and appointing John F. Morton Seo’ty. On motion, Col. Jos. R. Gamble ex plained the objeot of the meeting and' in conclusion offered the fol lowing resolution which was adopt, ed: 4* Resolved, That a committee of seven bo appointee! by the Chairman to report subject matter for the action of this meeting, also the names of suitable del egates to represent this county in the State Convention. "s The chair then appointed Jas. Scott, Robert Allen, Lowery Williams, John Knowls, C. C. Cleghorn, Dr. G. B, T. Maddox, and B. Moyers, said commit tee. who retired for a short time and reported the following resolutions and names of delegates: Resolved, That we approve of the nominations of John Bell and Edward Everett and will give them our cordial support.

Institution for tho Education of the Deaf and Dumb, beg leave to announce that they have secured the services of Prof. W. D. Cocke, of N. C., as Principal of the Institution. Mr. Cooke has been engaged in tho business of mute instruction for 20 :Y‘ ton to-ini' emissary in this place, iq re-1 years, lias been Principal of the Vir- ply to a communication from the latter I ginia and North Carolina Deaf and containing “cheering news.’’ . It gi\es I Dumb. Institutions for the past 16 what; may be termed Southern' ground in reference to the toleration or prohi bition of slavery in the Territories. The only constitutional manner in which this question can be settled is indicated by tho SCclaration of-JHr. Bell “that the peoplp.of a Territijpy, when they come to form'their State Constitution, and then only, were (are] qualified to establish their domestic thstitutions l” We quote Mr. Bell: “As to the principle of ‘squatter sov ereignty,’ I wish furtherjtosay, that in the late contest between General Taylor and the honorable and distinguished Sena tor from Michigan, [Gen. Cass,] it was distinctly brought forward as an issue before the peopleof Tennessee. * * * * * * In that contest,in common with the South generally, they [the people of Tennessee] repudiated the idea, that a handful, or any number of inhabitants, in-a Territory of the Uni ted States, should have the|power grant ed to them by Congress of regulating their domestic institutions and qt their discretion, to deny to the citizen of one right of property in Slaves. We were not prepared to reverse,and set- aside the previously established practice and dob- trines of- the Government, from 1789 to that time. • We could see no peace, no quiet, no end of agitation that was to result from such a course. We thought that if a Territorial Legislature should, in one or two years, estublish or abolish slavery, the agitation of the question of slavery would still go on. We, in Ten nessee,'-in that time believed we were ad - vocating principles and doctrines on this subject approved- in nil the Southern States'.. The principle'then contended for was tbtft the people of a Territory, when they -came to form their State Constitution, and then^only, were qualifi ed to establish their'domestic institu tions.” ‘ This is a Constitutional view of the matter, and Mr. Bell contends that— ‘ The Constitution] Proprio Vigoro, the flag of the Union, protects tho citi zen in* the enjoyment of his.rights of ^property of every description, recogniz ed as such in any of the States, on every sea, 'and in every Territory of the Union.” ’ . » kWho wants better protection to slave ^property than tha protection pointed out in thq above oxtracts ?

Iiis dancing was “repeatedly cheered," and every time lie danced lie took n differ ent partner, half u dozen in nil. How they must have Coen captivated by so sweet a prince, ns'he condescendmidy “corrected their blunders.” Probaoly tho ladies of" Newfoundlands do not know much about such mattery tuid the sex in Canada are but little in advanfce of them. But when the Prince comes here lie will find the ladies posted up— fully acquainted, with all the new figures and the most intricate steps. They have perfectly at tlieir toes’ ends the la test pus from Paris, and perhaps may. bo ablo even to teach his Royal Highness something lie does not know. \Ve ad^ vise the ladies, therefore, to be prepared, armed at'all points-, that they may show the Prince of Wales that-they can dance better than the damsels of the British Provinces.

MAGRUDER^ A Sliout Mistake’—-WheivSir Isaac Newton changed iiis residence, and went to live in Leicester, his next,door neighbor wns a widow lady, who wns much puzzled by the little she observ ed of the habits of the philospher. One of the Fellows of the-lioynl Society cnl- ed upon her one day when, among oth er domestic hews, she mentioned that ono had come to reside in the aborn ing house, who, she felt certain,'was a poor, mad gentlemen, “because,” she continued, ‘*lie diverts himself in the oddest way imaginable. Every morn ing when the sun shines so brightly that we are obliged to draw tho win dow-blinds, he takes his seat before a tub of soapsuflf, and occupies himself for hours blowing soap-bubles through a common clay pipe, which he intently watches floating about until they burst. He is, doubtless, now at his favorite amusement, for it is a fine day; do come and look at him.” The gentle man smiled, and they went up stairs, when, after looking through the stair case window into' the ac[joining court yard, be turned and said, “My dear madam, the person whom you suppose to be a poor lunatio, is no other than the greatSir Isaac Newton, studying the refraction of light upon thin plates, a phenomenon which is beautifully exhib- ted upon thesurtaco of acommon soap- bubble.” Didn’t Like the Stvle.—Two south ern gentlemen at Niagra Falls, enjoy ing some refreshments at a saloon, not relishing the presence of two colored individuals, who algo came in to imbibe, made a demonstration toward clearing out the institution.
