SUNDAY, OCTOBER 18 1840. SOUTHERN INSTITUTIONS. Wo present to our readers a powerful nrroy of fact* from tha Richmond Enquirer, which, in addition to those heretofore spread before our Southern read, er*, should teach them that they, by the support of the federal candidate, are strengthening the hands of their enemies, and paralyzing the noble exertions of their Northern friends. If-the uncompromising pledges nf Van Burkk to arrest nil congressional encroachments upon our constitutional rights cniinotexciien fooling of rcclp- rocily, nnd awoke those who, whan the contest shall come, must bear tho brunt of the battle, all the tlart. ting facts which may be produced ns evidence of the hostiliiy of the whig* to our domostic institutions, wo fear, will) not convince such men. Mr. W. P. Fessenden, the wing member elect from the Cumberland District in Maine, has, in a letter written on the3dinst. published in tho Intel. Jigtncer at Washington, disclaimed being an nboli. tiunist, and denied that he ever has been a member ■ufony abolition society. His father, Mr. Samuel Fessenden, "has for some years,” ho further remaiks, * boennn avowed abolitionist." Now let us compare the professions of Mr. W. P, Fessenden, issued after his election, when hocould not injure his prospects at the bnllot box by such disclaimer, with his course only last goring in tho legislature of Maine, in opposition ton resolution ’of the House of last session, parsed after much agi tatlon on this exciting subject. The resolution went further than even many mem. bers of the South liad.nt previous sessions, required as nn net of justice to their lacerntcd feelings, The House in passing it, nobly refusad even to 11 receive or entertain in any way whatever” these odious, thcsriioleful petitions. And by what vote T By nlenn majority of six out nf 218 rotes! Twenty seven Northern Dem'crate voted for this resolution—one Northern Whig—every Southern Democrat, while four Southern Whigs out of 42 of that political creed voted against the resolution!!!! Theroign nf peace was restored by tins resolution, incorporated as it was in the rules of the House,nnd l lie fell spit it, which sought to tfamplo on Southern tights, nnd consume the session to tho detriment of the public business, was rebuked by tho lnlty tone of a Northern Democracy. It was litis pncilic resolution which Mr. W. P. Fessenden only iust spring opposed, nnd that con* aplcuously. Now, ha would disclaim being nn Abolitionist, •Jhat the Whigs of tho South may be propitinted to favor the election of the nominee of those Incendia ries. People of the South, can you respond to the shouts of the Whig Presses, when they hail such a politician a* a true Whig. Let him take Ids seat in Congress, and what so curity hnvo you, thut with his quiet uml deceitful manner, ho will nut, like another Jonh, smite you under the fifth tiht Bui wo leave this Janus faced politician to his whig friends, and turn to the God-like Daniel, who in his efforts to mast* himself nppear a Jeffersonian Democrat, uttered tbe following at Richmond, <Va:) Extraclfvom Mr. Wehtier's speech, delivered on the 5th inst, at Richmond, Vu. Well, 1 will say it again, and 1 wish you to re* tnemher wlmt I Say—I will repast it—ana l wish you to toll it wherever you go—sprend it abroad up on the wings of the wind, that I, Daulel Webster, herein the front of the Cupitol of Virginia—in tho month of October, 1040-wlih yon October sun shining upon me—in the midst of this assembly— before the whole country—and with nil the respon sibility that attache* to me—or to my name in any way—declare thnt there is no power either in Con- cress or tho General Government, in tho slightest degree to interfere with the institution or Domestic Slavery! [Tremendous cheering, and cries of “That’s two thousand votes for Harrison.] Will tho South trust this able nnd consistent Federalist, who until ha *» heretofore, when Democracy triumphed over Federalism, been jn tho front rank of New England Federalists, and opposed all legislation calculated in sirenco tho clamors and paralyze the efforts of the ally of Northern Whigs T We do not believe It. But wo next opprnnch the Whig Governor of N. York—thnt great State which tho modern Whigs cinim'fur Van Buukn- The nets ol this Executive, nnd pntent Whig Legislature, will he abhorred in after times, as. n principal wedge against tho rights of the Southorn People. Yea, the Demostnt* of the North nnd South detest thorn now, for limy de* prive the citizen nf Georgia of his constitutional ‘‘right to recover his property, should he he so inju dicious as to risk litem in this recently Whig State. Pause, follow-citizens, and reflect on the exertions of your enemies of tho modern Whig parly r>f tho North, nnd.rally in the support of your friends, who have sacrificed all but their principles in sustaining your principles. Reflect on tho issue—Democracy, with the Go vernment administered ns of yore, and Federalism, with every change which a party advancing no principles hut. tho principle of opposition to tho Democratic enndidato. which glares as the noon day sun.

PENNSYLVANIA. Federal whiggery in trouble.—It is a curious fact that In somo of the counties of Pennsylvania, the friends of Harrison seem to he so few in number thnt to make up thnir tickets, they are compelled to ttso the names of democrats against their withes. In Pike county, for instance, no loss titan three pri sons placed upon the federal ticket have publicly come out und refused to servo. Mr. C. B Ridg- way whom they had nominated for Auditor—Mr. Mosos Brink, nominated for Commissioner, nnd Mr. Jacob Wotsbrook, also nominated as Auditor. Those gentlemen are democrats, und wish no con nection with tho federal parly.—Their declination carries nwoy one-halfof the Harrhoniatt nominn tions for Pike, and furnishes some idea or the per ploxitics of tho enemy in tho interior, by showing that there are places where they cannot oven form a ticket from their own ranks.—Pennsylvanian, I2M inti• *’ From the Richmond Enquirer of 6th inst. STARTLING FACTS. To show, .whethor Ambnlltiordam is a Humbug or not—to show, that it is tho interest of tho South ern Whigs to nffect to deny it—to show, thnt there is on amalgamation between Northern Whiggery und Aboliiiuniim—wo submit the following tinques ttonnble facts. We challenge any Wltig to contra diet them, or to deny their alarming import to Southern Rights and Southern Institutions. Rend these few fuel* oven—and wo have hundreds of n more portentous character to produce, and let the R. Wltig then dare to deny the dangers which hnng over the whole South from W. H. Harrison’s election. Let the Portsmouth Times idly threaten to stop “all discussion in it* territory, except at tho bayonet’s point.” We cull no other witness upon the stand, except thoso who Itavo como before us since our last paper went to press. • Tho first witness we summon at the bar of the Public, is one of the purest Democrats, one of the firmest friends of tho South, one of tho most dis tinguished sons of Maine.

The total distance from tho City of Savannah to tho Ocnmnlgee River by the route of tho Rail Ron-1, is I90J miles, and the distance of grading remaining to ho done is less than 50.miles.
