(tbtrang ~ATOU ST A. GA: Tbnnda)' Evening, Feb. 11, IW3^. ~ our Kidnapping President. ,‘ \ grave error/’ says Mr. Buchanan, as he seeks to reconcile the South to an other outrage upon the rights of one of her sons. But he knows that the South ern people always have been quieted by talk, and he is fully convinced that they don’t know the diffeience between words and substance. A few telegraph ic despatches to the effect that: “lhe Administration is said not to approve entirely of Com. Paulding's course," and everybody that we know of has set tied down to the belief that Buchanan is the incarnation of fidelity totlie South and to law. Is it not passing strange what simples heal wounds in Southern hearts ? But,” says our jewel of consistency, as he speaks from his Northern mouth, ‘•Paulding’s motives were good, and the result of his action will benefit the country;’’ meaning thereby that it will assist in making one of his clique our next President. It cannot be too often repeated that the most important busi ness in the opinion of our rulers is to fill offices. The distribution of the pub lic plunder is the only business which has been carefully attended to in this country, since the days of Andkuw Jack son. Look at and contemplate the alarm ing fact, if anything can alarm us now a-days: “A grave error” committed by a man who ought to know some thing, and that error unpunished! aye, unceti6ured 1 The venial error of Gen. Jackson at New Orleans received the severest rebukes at the hands of a res cued country! He committed, in a great emergency, an act which, being slightly irregular, saved New Orleans from the havoc of fire and sword. No one was injured, and, under the circum stances, no one could have been wrong ed. But there wis danger of a “prece dent,” and the hero suffered, lest some evil might come upon the nation in the distant future, Contrast the two cases. Jackson violated, to use the harshest possible term, a national law. Paul ding violated an international law, and in doing so totally disregarded and struck a direct blow at the right of ex patriation. The former was abused, the latter lauded! Now, let who can, tell us why Buch anan and his tool, Paulding, are not the greatest and most criminal kidnappers on the globe? They have taken the Navy of the United States, entered for. eign territory, seized upon its citizens, and hurried them into captivity, lest the North should bo alarmed ; to assuie the North that the face of this Adminis tration is, and ever shall be, set against the extension of slave territory—not in this country—but on this continent! We hold the right of expatriation to be an inalienable right. This country maintained that right in the war of 1812. Daniel Webster maintained it in his letter to the Austrian Minister upon the rescue, by Capt. Ingraham, of Mar tin Kosta. This right implies the right to give allegiance to another gov ernment. Allegiance implies other rights, of protection to property and life. Wm. Walked and his comrades hail expatriated themselves and had be come citizens of Nicaragua. That point has not been denied. Pierce’s Admin istration acknowledged it by the recep tion of President Walker’s Minister.— Then Walker must have acquired rights in the country to which he trails /erred his allegicnce. One of those wav his liberty, unmolested by any powei foreign to the State of Nicaragua. Capt Davis abducted him—-kidnapped him Therein ibis nation made war upon the sovereignty of Nicaragua. No mattei if it did save Walker from destruction It does not extenuate the guilt of Piero and Pay 's, that good come of evil Walker was entitled in common jus tice to seek and obtain in this country the means of reinstating himself iu the position from which Davis had taken him. It was nobody’s business, but bit own, whether that was a desirable posi tion or not. Ho asked of this country only neutrality. He was entitled to it, but be did not get it. Whether or not he is the rightful President of Nicara gua, was not a question to be adjudged by us. It was sufficient for us to know that lie was a citizen of that Republic, held in unjustifiable durance by us.— He -President or private citizen —bore on himself the sovereignty of Nicara gua. James Buchanan and Paulding made war upon that sovereignty and Aggravated the criminality of the deed by invading the territory of a nation with whom we were at peace, it l. James Bucu an an and his abettors who have violated our neutrality laws. Itisj they who arc “pirates, freebooters and! robbers.” In any light in which the treatment 1 of Walker can be looked at, it is sim ply and only an outrage, instigated by a devilish determination to sacrifice; anything and everytiiing to the demon of party, and enacted in defiance of the best established doctrines of our gov . eminent. Perhaps some of our readers don’t understand, or understanding don’t feel the fact that the whole manage ment of the Walker affair lias been a pure concession to the demand of anti- Slavcry, to bribe and coax Northern Democracy' to stick to the party. No body can tell wliat they will yet de mand, but he is a fool who can fc see that demagogues, who aspire to of fice, will give all they' demand. One thing more and we have done for the present. There are those, who with hypocritical Buchanan, pretend to jus tify the decision of Walker upon the ground that fillibustcring will lower our reputation for national honesty, and involve us in difficulties with ether na tions. We answer all such notions thus : Suppose this country at war with Spain. If, then, the United States may seize upon an expatriated citizen, wliere ever found, and punish him because lie is making war upon somebody with whom they are at peace, why might not England seize one of her expatriated citizens, who, in a United States vessel, should be making war upon Spain, with which country England is at peace ? W hen allegiance, on the pari of the citizen ceases, responsibility, on the part of the govern ment for the act of the individual, ceases also. ® Southern Extension* If the free States under the influence of legislation or the results of climate and necessity, as it is claimed, are to re ceive all of the present territories of the United States, things in a few years will stand as follows : Area. Present Slaveholdiug States, Sol ,508 Non-Slavehold’g 012,697 Add Territories, 1,372,061 —2,084,C58 Excess free States, (square miles,) 1,233,150 For this absorption and appropriation, if the South were to endeavor to set off what should be equal by purchase or otherwhise, Southern territory now be yond her limits, the following would he required : The whole of Mexico, 1,033,834 Half of Central America, 101,050 All of the West India Islands, including Hayti, Cuba, Ja maica, &c. 91,403 1,231,296 If the North then mentions British America, Cape Horn must be the other end of the dilemma. But jesting aside, in the whole future of this great conti nent, have our Northern friends the se rious intention of confining our powers down to tiic few thousand square miles which they have apportioned to us, and which we now, they stem sometimes to say, hold by their sufferage? —De Bow’s Weekly Press. A Stew Route to the Pacllic. We congratulate the country, says the Stales, on the prospect of an early relief : from the oppressive monopoly of the ■ Panama Company, which, iu the ab sence of all competition, sets no bounds to its exorbitant charges on the passen gers to California. The Tehuantepec Company proposes to carry the mails to San Francisco in one-third less time and for a third less compensation. It engages to make the trip in fourteen days at the start; but, when the road across the Isthmus is re duced to smooth and regular working . order, it will be accomplished in twelve days. The opening of the Tehuantepec route absolutely marks a new era in the commercial relations and military inde pendence of the United States; and, .vithout taking into the estimate the •ssential advantage of multiplying our roads across the American Isthmus, its value, as the shortest and most easily iefended line of communication with mr Pacific States, is beyond all compu tation. Next to a railroad through our own territory, this is the most important, be cause it is literally the most American route to the Pacific. The- Macon Committee—Price of Provision h. The Chronicle Sentinel of yesterday morning, contains the following forcible illustration of the anti-bank movement, now in full blast all over the State : The Macon Committee and Meeting, were evidently greatly distressed at the idea, that the Bank bill, passed by the Legislature, had “compelled the poor Mechanic to pay nearly double price for all the necessaries of life. The Com mittee and Meeting were evidently la boring under a sort of monomania on the subject of Banks and Bank suspen sions. They probably had a theory on the subject, and were determined to es tablish the correctness of that theory, | if assertion, broad, unsupported asser tion of a fact, not only without any testimony to sustain it, but directly op posed to all the testimony that could be adduced, would be received by the people. Unfortunately for the meeting, the people are becoming familiar with the intrigues and tricks of the dema gogues of the day, and they generally require something more than broad us sertion to sustain their statements.— Knowing this, we have taken the trou j hie to consult our files, and ascertain j the price of the necessaries of life, | when the Banks suspended, October 21, 1857 ; when the bill was passed, Decern* [' her ‘23d, 1857, and when the meeting 1 assembled in Macon, .January 27th, 1 1858. and here is the result of our in i vestigation: ■!

The most brilliant party that I have attended in Washington, was given last : evening, the rid, by Mrs. Secretary ; Cobb. She entertained the guests ot three thousand invitations in a manner reflecting the highest credit. The hon -1 ors of reception were also shared by two ; lady friends of Mrs. C. Mrs. Craig was attired in illusion ov er silk, pink trimming, and flounces. 1 She was tastefully dressed. But the fas cination of such a lady’s conversation! makes one quite forget more externals, | however elegant. All Southern ladies j are agreeable talkers but the irapres : sion left by this fair Southron was as | the perfume of the flowering magnolia, ; which sends its sweet odor upon the gentle airs of Summer through all the ‘ forests to return again upon the nie ; mory, when the scentless power has , perished. Miss Clayton (daughter of the First j ' Assistant of the Treasury) was greatly ! admired for simplicity and vivacity of manners. Dressed in white tarleton! and flounces ; her youth and personal ! 1 charms rendered here one of the belles! ; of the evening. Passing to the guests it is difficult to know where to begin with company so: distinguished in rank, talent, beauty! ! and accomplishments. It will not bei invidious should 1 praise a friend or neg-; lect one in such a crowd. Among the i gentlemen variously distinguished and ? ; their ladies in escort the following were | conspicuous : Gen. Scott, U. S A Gen. Houston, j U. S. Senate, Gen. Persifev Smith, U. S. 1 A., and lady, elegantly attired inma-i roon velvet, Col. May, U. S. A , and la-1 dy, formerly Miss Law, of New York, I Col. Jack Hayes, of Texan Hanger dis-j tinction. Passing among the civilians,! I noticed Prince John Van Buren, Sec-1 rotary Toucey and lady, Secretary and | Mrs. Thomson,who was most exquisitely i dressed in pink i ilk and black lace flounces, head dress green and cherry, Senator Yulcee and Gen. MaMicr. State Senator of New York Miss van Voer hes, of Brooklyn, New York, a guest of Miss’King, in both manners and dress creditably repreeented the “ City of Churches” and beautiful women. Destruction of tlic Col. Crossman. On Thursday evening, 4th inst., about 7 o’clock, the “nigger boiler” of the steamer Col Crossman exploded, one mile above New Madrid. The boat took fire immediately after the explosion, but it was partially subdued, and no one apprehended any danger from it forflf- 1 teen or twenty minutes after the explo- ' sion. After the confusion produced by « the explosion had somewhat subsided, i and the wounds of the injured being , dressed, the alarm of fire wasagain given, A portion of the crew and some deck pas- ssengers immediately took possession of one of the life-boats and the yawl and shoved off. The life-boat had but four persons in it, but the yawl was well fill- ■ ed. The remaining life boat, under the ; direction of some officer of the boat, took some 18 or 20 persons ashore By this < time the boat had drifted around, and ] was floatingjdown Within 200 yards of a . bar on the Kentucky side, and finally | lodged on the point of a bar a little be low Madrid, about one mile below the 1 place where she took fire. The passen- 1 gersfeither put on life-preservers—with J which the.boat was well supplied—or got hold of something that they thought - would hold them up, and then jumped into the river. Fortunately a pile of lumber was lying at the stern of the boat, which enabled many to save them selves. i It is impossible to ascertain the num ber or names of all those who were lost. The register is lost and all the other books of the boat, and Mr. Johnson, the 1 first clerk, who could form a better esti mate than any one else, perished. The number is estimated at from forty to fifty. 1 It is rumored that the Board of Mana gers of the Washington Monument, un- j able to raise sufficient funds to finish it . in the style originally intended, have concluded to build it up with brick an 1 , mortar, and plaster it in imitation of , marble. Telegraph Communication between ' ! Russia ai d America. A correspondent from St. Petersburg) states that there is much# talk in that j city in reference to the establishment of j , telegraphic communication by land i, with North America. The plan sub- 1 . ! milled to the Russian government, by a] j Belgian engineer, consists in bringing a! !telegraphic line through Siberia, then! j establishing a submarine communica-j tion between the Cape East and that of j : j the Prince of Gailes, and finally to join :; i that line to those of the United States, j across Russi an and British America 1 j Picayune. •■♦o- * The Tennessee Legislature has passed an act extending the time two years for) the finishing of the Memphis and Louis- 1 ( ville Railroad. i The Condo tie Vi I laueu va,aid -de-camp of Gen.
