From ths ifthiphi* Eiyle <{• Enquirer. io the Hon. Vespasian Ellis, Editor of the American Organ. jiKVRSm: Although lam a subscriber for, and been a pretty constant reader of your paper, engagements from home have cut off my news ■ r reading for some time oast, until a few days | , your weekP issue of trie Bth December fell ■nv hands. The first thing that atiracted mv ..rion, was an editorial on tfre first jrage, vindl your editorial consistency upon the question • lavery; and die next was the absence of the ■ji rican Philadelphia platform from the columns she paper. :• i» tru - -, .dr, that ;on were a member of the v. ntiou that adopted that platform—that after adoption, you placed it in your paper and kept reft* b*r a long time, as a standing exposition of principles of the party. It is further true, that i wrote a uuuiber of editorials in defence of each i every article of the platform. It is true, that 1 bate taken down that platform, and that you v insist that the whole question of slavery ought excluded from our party creed, and that the I’tion of the igth article of that platform is in- : nistent with the organization of n National 1 Now, sir. in the face of ail these facts, your curse may have been a consistent one. I shall j that question to be settled between yourself f i those who have taken issue with you upon lhat , -siioii. It is a question about which I shall not ; ibl myself; nor will the Southern people, f -nme, feel any great concern in its settlement, i - with your present position, as the editor of an j > a riean journal, that 1 propose to deal, and not i its r-mtUtenoif or i HoonxUtenc;/ with former j understand you to hold now, that the question slavery should be wholly “pretermitted in the .•iitiization of a National party; and that our •norm should contain nothing on the subject;” i von strangely enough, too, insist upon this be ise tit question of slavery is a sectional, and not Natruial question. Here, sir, 1 take issue with Every subject provided for in the Federal •istitution must thence become national in its .araeter. The framers of our national compact lit to provide for the protection of the rights of ■holders, and imposed a direct affirmative duty •a the General Government to provide for the ration of our --laves when from Hence the duty of the Government to make isiou for the enforcement of that right, as well > lie duty of each Mate in the confederacy to J a prompt and ready aequiesence in the exe ■yiuii of the law. ci form a national party, therefore, and exclude n its creed any and all provisions for a vital of fifteen nut of the thirty-one States of Union, would be an instance of folly amount _ to infatuation on the part of the South—a you may rest assured, sir, that neither par :ii the slave States will do. Nothing, sir, but obstinate and fanatical folly of the delegates a the tree State-,iu*withdru wing from the Amer •n Convention, at Philadelphia, caused the de i ut the party at the South. The objection eve hrre urged against was, that we were not a party. o .m>. , i» of sixteen free States, ■i} one had remained in the Convention and sanctioned ihe platform, and that one bv a divided there w.i-> too much truth in the accusation to admit of its denial, and too muoh/btre in that ch.tohv avoided. And to make the matter still • ; on. -.ir, now tell us that in the Free State remained with us in Convention, the late imcrieati victory was obtained by repudiating the . artich- of the platform. Mark, now, sir, what i il you. If the American party North caunot sent to stand with us ujion the principles of the Philadelphia platform, we will never stand togetb- The people of the South will not abate one ■n- tittle of the principles embraced in that iiirm upon ihe subject of slavery for all the i - - intents that ever have been or ever may he elect rJ in America, and the public printing into the bnr- K..r yi!*is past; in fact ever since the con trover- ' |-s that grew oat of the currency and tariff ques | a» have ccas i (o occupy the public mind, the l . i parties at tii ■ .South have (lone iiltle else than logise and explain away the offensive resolu •ns and > o ' of their respective allies, at the ■ : tLi. During all ibis time we have been assailed . almost every shape that fanatical ingenuity could eat. !>;. resolutions in the primary meetings 1 tite people in the free State.-, and in legislative State ami Federal, and by legislative enact as and judicial decisions, calculated and intend ;o embarra.-s mdeti: off - the enforcement of our ; aititational rights, to have our strayed or stolen norty returned to tts. We have been assailed she press and the pulpit, in primary schools, ■ id-rnies and Colleges, m public hotels and on high ways, ,otd in the cheap light literature of ■ day ; by emissaries sent amongst us to abuse . hospitality, corrupt and steal away our slaves, . i in fine, in almost every mode except arrest and ■•-a war, and even that has been advised. [during all this time, the South has occupied on ■ defensive position. She has appealed in vain die patriotism of the men of the North- -to the iTotlterbood of our fathers, to our national com-; v't cemented hv the blood of a common aneestrv. - i- has pointed to the Constitution, and only call 'd tor the protection which it promises. She has ei <-i made war upon the opinions, practices or of the North. She has not sought to thrust •pi-lions, - r her institutions upon them. Site ..- _ • up no populai furor to influence the press, ilni; or the school houses, against any interest of X- then, sisters. She has offered them a -• id.d markt- for all her products, from those of 'o highest works of enlightened industry, down hit little notions, the fruitscof ingenious neees ■ iv. She has patronized their merchants, their Oiochanics. their institutions of learning, their * ms -ini tli.-ir daughters who have cmne amongst us to * ek a living and even promotion to the highest , on! of honor. And all she asks in return, is that ■ • affirmative duty imposed bv the Constitution i restoring our fugitive slaves, shall be punctual \ Hsi i v•• 1 and that for the rest, the government, - • i..r as >: very i« concerned, shall let us alone. But c i 0 this small boon is denied us. We are dd that the lew providing for the return of fugi • ves shall be swept from the Statute book, and ,at all tile power ••! thirlv-oue confederate : 'talcs, including out solves, shall be exerted to hem : m, suffocate and choke out an institution upon shich our vitality depends. Now, sir, in the face ■ ■■i these undeniable facts you insist that in the or ganization of a National party the South shall wrlvk these threatened dangers and place her - if without inquiry in the hands of the North, lien she does that act of folly she will open a grave that will inclose all that is dear and vital to : tier. Sir, appeals to us from the North in favor ol’ die Missouri restriction came with a had grace af ter the debates and votes in Congress in 1--47, upon ’lr. Burt's amendment to the Oregon bill. The >outh did not then oppose the restriction clause in he bill; ail -he asked for was simply the reeogui . n of the act of I'-.'o. And Mr. Burt’s amend ment was offered for that sole purpose and yet it ias insultingly scouted in debate and killed off' iu i ■ vote. No candid man, North or South, can eud the debate and count the votes in Congress :• that celebrated amendment, and then listen ;te- long-faced homilies that we now have from '•••• North in favor of the “time honored Compro »i* with feelings other than those of the most ,'i ofound contempt. Oneo for all, Sir, let me assure you, and your - -rthern friends, that die political party which rail elite; the next Presidential canvass without a h.Uorin containing substantially the principle* of ! -he twelfth article of the American Philadelphia j . attorin, will nut command a “ corporate’ guard’’ the South. This political see-sawing has run - course. He that is not for us is against us.

Tut Pni.siDhx i as a Whiter. —The New f ork Sunday Mercury, a neutral paper, pounces savage ly- upon the foul maligners of Gen. Pisuoh, who infest Washington. It says : The jackdaw of correspondent, if he knew 1 anything, ought to know that the inaugural address of a President has. in all cases, been the inceptive production of the President, concocted by his own 1 pen ; and either read or spoken to the world, after having been submitted to the consideration of his immediate Cabinet Ministers. We have not thus far had a President, with the exception of Gen. Jackson and Taylor, who have not been known as reputable belles-lettres scholars. As for Gen. Franklin Pierce, the President of the United Stares, whom the stupid correspondent of the New York Herald would have the world be lieve is so deficient in literary acquirements, that he has to employ Judge Gilchrist to write his State papers, everybody who personally knows aught of the man, knows that he is one of the first classical scholars of the day. At College, he ranked with tlie best of the belles-lettres scholars then induced to Alma Mater ; and while at th eNew Hampshire bar and when in tiie United States House of Rep resentatives. and in the Senate, he stood conspicu ous among bis peers as an elegant writer. The Columbia Enquirer in noticing tlm contem plated removal to Augusta, of T.

Hi- is u gentleman of courteous manners, very amenable in Ins inter- ‘ course with the press, and very obliging in every respect in the various details connected with his position. The Association could have no more efficient and courteous officer to attend to their in terests than he, and we lake great pleasure in re commending him to the kindness, courtesy and at tention of our Augusta cotemporaries, cordially wishing him a pleasant residence among them.” A personal and busines acquaintance with Mr. Piggot, of iong standing, enables us heartily to endorse the flattering compliment paid him by our friend of the Ejramintr. We are pleased to learn that Mr. P. has removed to Augusta, where we feel as.ured he will enjoy facilities in bis business as telegraphic agent of tic associated press, which the wires did not furnish him while the relay station was at Columbia.— Sir.

Railroads in the United States.— lt is stated 1 that in 1 s*2s there were but three miles of railway j in the United States ; in lsgu it increased to 28 miles; in 1830 to 4L miles; in 1840 to 1,197 miles; and now in 1850 it reaches 23,342 miles. We have in addition probably 2,000 miles of double track, making all more than 2.5,000 miles of iron wav, or n length more than sufficient to encircle the globe at the equator. Within ten years the length has neon quadrupled, and since 1850 alone, trebled. There arc now at least six thousand miles in pro cess of construction, that will be in use before the end of the year 1857.

TIHE undersigned having c purchased the patent right I to the above valuable and popu- niltn | lar PLOW STOCK for the ! Columbia, Lincoln, Burke, Jefferson, Washington, Seriven and Emanuel, are prepared to furnish it to Planters at the Manufacturer’s price. This stock, which is made entirely of wrought iron, is a South ern invention ; and has been sufficiently tested by tlie most practical and successful planters in the country, as numerous certificates in our possession will show-, to prove that, when provided with suita ble shares, it runs more steadily, breaks and pul verizes the soil more thoroughly, clogs less in rough land, is more easily adjusted for deep or shallow plowing, holds the shares more firmly, lasts incom i parably longer, and is, in the end, far cheaper than any other stock now in uso. In the November number of the Southern Culti vator, p. 345, the editor of that work, says: “ After giving this Plow a fair and impartial trial, we can j truly say that we regard it as a most valuable im provement on all common wooden implements of the kind now in use. For general efficiency and [ convenience, as well as special adaptation to </«y> tillage or mibnoiling, we know of nothing that sur- 1 passes it; while ou the score of economy and dura- j oility, it is altogether unrivalled. No Plow with which we are acquainted is so well calculated to i resist the careless and destructive usage of planta tion negroes, and wc doubt not that its general in- ! troduction would be of very great pecuniary benefit to the planting interests of the South. Such is the j opinion of the editor of the Cultivator, and such is the opinion of all who, like, him, have given the ; plow a fair and impartial trial. This stock is ' adapted to six different points or shares, including j every variety which a planter will need from the ! beginning to the end of the year. These shares ; will be furnished with the stock when desired, though auy plantation South can make them after : once seeing them. The stock is the only part of the plow patented. Circulars, containing certificates, and a more > minute description of the Plow, may be obtained by application. Rights for counties, shops or plantations, will be i sold on reasonable terms.
