Courier. | j Front the XashvUle Union and American, May 3P Mr. Kill more’s I nsoundnesson the Kan. sas Question—More Proof. AN e showed a few days since, from facts fur nished us by W\a Bnnm r, that it was impossible in i the nature of things for Mr. Fillmore to occupy ground upon the slavery question, as now present ed to the country, that would be satisfactory to the South. We went upon the assumption that no man would receive the support of the southern States who is not—heart and soul—in favor of the Kansas bill and opposed to the restoration of the Missouri Compromise. The Banner had proven that Mr. Haven, Mr. Fillmore’s representative in Congress, his old law' partner, ancf his devoted personal and political friend, had voted to restore the Missouri Compromise line— and” if anv man knows and reflects the sentiments of Mr. Fillmore j lt must be this same Solomon G. Haven Haven 1 had > furthermore, written a letter, in view of the intimacy between himself and Mr. Fillmore, assur ing the public that he would accept, iu which he assailed the administration, bv implication for its support of the Kansas bill. | M e referred also to the admitted fact, that Mr. Fillmore was once an Abolitionist—iu favor of abolishing slavery in the District of Columbia— °t interdicting the slave-trade between the States, and opposed to the admission ofanv more States un less slavery was prohibited by their Constitutions, t hat such was his position in IS3B, not even a j Know Nothing paper has the hardihood to deny. N\ here then, we ask, has there been any retrac tion of his sentiments upon these questions ? No : one can furnish it. All then that Mr. Filimore has done inconsistent with his Abolition senti ments, was to sign, utter having supported the Taylor police, the Compromise measures of 1850 • winch he did with reluctance, as he admitted in liis speech at Louisville, reported in the Journal, and not until he was advised so to do bv his Attorney General, Mr. Crittenden, and under the pressure of Messrs. Clay and Webster. To these incontrovertible facts—facts which are not questioned bv the Know Nothing press of this city—facts which no one can deny who has any regard for the truth—we w ish to ‘make an addi : tion, which places beyond all doubt, the position of Mr. Fillmore on the Kansas-Nebraska bill. Next to Solomon G. Haven, among his intimate personal, political and confidential friends, is the Hon. John I*. Kennedy, of Maryland, his Secretary of the Navy during the latter lialf of his adminis tration. From his intimate relationship, Mr. Ken nedy undertakes to inform the country as to the probability of Mr. Fillmore’s acceptance. Writing to a friend in New York, he takes occa sion, in the course of his letter to say. relative to Mr. Fillmore’s position on the Nebraska question : “/ knew, ami so do you, with what profound regret Mr. Fillmore noted tin action of the /'resent Admin istration and its friends, in the opening anew that angry and dangerous discussion of slavery, by the abrogation of the Compromises of 1850,'and with it the repeal of the Missouri Compromise. He foresaw in it what lias been sadly realized, a more exasperated agitation of sectional strife, and in creased difficulty in the way of peaceful settle ment ; and now, when this mischief has been done, 1 know that he looks with a strong faith to the American party as the only effective centre I around which the intelligent and patriotic friends i . of the Union may he rallied and organized with a I good hope of bringiny hark the country to its old con- I ■-rratlee/position, with reference to this unhappy! dissentions.” ‘ j Mark the language, for Mr. Kennedy speaks hi/ authority, lie says that it was with profound re- > | vet that Mr. Fillmore witnessed the repeal of the j Missouri Compromise line, and that he is looking with a strong hope to the American partv to briim ! hack the country to its old conservative position, i This is plain talk. Everybody will understand it. j It tally’s well with the position ot Mr. Haven that the present Administration “has switched the en gine and entire train off the track.” It tallvs well, also, with the declaration of Mr. Karnes, a ‘Massa chusetts delegate to the Convention, and one of the I committee appointed to inform the candidates of their nominations, who has since declared in a pub- j fished speech to his Abolition friends at home, 1 tiiat "he canid do metre Jor the cause of freedom ttnd \ i for tiermillions of slaves by standing by Millard • Fillmore and Andrue J. Donelson thait by boltinrj," j "for he belie red that .Willard Fillmore was as good an anti-da -• t-y man as any Republican who ton!,l j i lee presented." | Are the people of the South prepared to sup port any man in these perilous times of Northern aggression, who occupies such a position as Messrs. Haven and Kennedy have assigned Mr. Fillmore? We think not. How Gen. Zollieoffer I can support him we are unable to say ; for it will ! he remembered that he has said from his seat in Congress: “All the men who have 'spit upon’ compromises all the Free Soilers—all those who have broke faith with the constitutional rights of the South iu all time-- past, when they felt that they could strike at us fatally, are against the Kansas) hi!!.” ’ v ‘ ~ -y --“It cannot be that any portion of the South can long co-oporate with such deadly enemies of our constitutional rights as will compose the great body of those who will hereafter conduct the northern movements and manoeuvres against the bill.” Let the people of the South discard their past prejtidieies, and, as patriots, look impartially and honestly at things as they are.

A party complainant lias a right to dismiss his bill at anv time before decree on payment of costs. 2. This rule applies to a cross hill as well as the original hill. 3. When a crossbill proposes to rescind and reopen a settlement, and sub.-equently a supple mental hill is filed, accepting the oiler—bui before it is tiled a motion is made by the complainant to ■ dismiss his cross bill, which motion is not heard until after the supplementary hill is filed: llehl, that these facts did not interfere with the party’s right to dismiss lus hill. t. Under the Act of 1854, a party in Equity is entitled to amend at any time. 5. The allowance of time to except to an answer, is within the discretion of the Court.

An agreement by all the heirs at law and the legatees under a will, to divide an estate without the expense and delay of a regular administration, is not forbidden by the law, and does not contravene the policy of the law. 2. Where such an agreement lias been made and fully executed, a Court of Equity will enjoin one of the legatees, who is insolvent, from violating the agree ment through the forms of an administration. 3. Where a wifi makes a limitation over, provided either of his children died without an heir “before a division:” lb id, that this means a legal division, and that a division bv consent is a legal division.

An insolvent debtor cannot obtain the benefit of this Act in a Court of Law, unless he takes care to have the land surveyed and identified as required by the Act. Akerman, Sut ton, for plaintiff'; Millican for defendant. Athens Banner, ,Tuut C. Wiucu is He?—The Washington Organ has the ! following: We trust that ho American will, in any form, give countenance to the idea that Mr. Fillmore is now anything else than an American in his politi cal relations. If we supposed for a moment that Mr. Fillmore, if elected, would resuscitate the old Whig party, and abandon the platform and principles of the American party, we should respecttully decline to render him even our feeble aid. to t each the posi tion which he has once adorned. Far from it. Per contra, the New York Mirror, a paper that supports Fillmoke, speaks out as follows: We must frankly say, that if Mr. Fillmore has stooped to the imposition of the ‘degrees’ and •pledges’ of any secret, oath-bound league that will shackle liis liberty to appoint or to remove J from office any man who may be eminently worthy to discharge the duties of his position, we can ■t and tve will i,’t, work, write or vote for his | election. Exciting Rumors from Kansas. St. Louis, June 2.—AA r e have the following from Leaven worth City, under date of May 28. It should i be received with caution: ( An extra of the Westport Face, headed “War!” ” W ar ! ’ reached this city this forenoon, and threw tlie pro-slavery men here into great excitement. J hey held a private meeting and appointed a com mittee of vigilance to attack Leavenworth, and let no free State men pass, and they are determined to make arrests of all obnoxious parties. A com pany of men armed with muskets and bayonets, ! (United States arms,) have been parading'all the forenoon, making arrests. They took prisoner a clerk of the committee of Congress, named Con wav, and two witnesses that had been subpoenaed, Messrs. Parrott and Miles Moore. Messrs. Moore and i’arrott were arrested while conversing with Mr. Sherman. Mr. Sherman asked if it was by legal process they hud taken one of the clerks of the commission. Mr. Wilkes, one of j party, said it was not—that he had no legal au j thonty, but that he would arrest the men he had down on his list. Many others have been taken. The town is excited, and the commission fear they must leave. Alarming extras are sent from AA'est port to the border towns. A fight is expected to wards Pottowatomie. The last difficulty arose at Pattowa tomie creek. Some pro-slavery men tried to j dnve a tree State man from his claim, but he refus ing to go, they took him and were about to hang him, when his neighbors came to the rescue and shot j some of the pro-slavery party. Leavenworth was surrounded by picket guards, and no one suffered : to enter or leave the town. It was stated that the ; " hole territory would be placed under military 1 surveillance. The Republican publishes an extra of the Kan i sas Herall, of the 2Sth ult., which confirms the re ! port previously telegraphed of the murder of eight pro-slavery men on the Pottowatomie creek by a party of free State men. The victims were most ; horribly mutilated. In some instances, after their | throats had been cut, their legs and arms had been chopped off and their eves gouged out. All the pro-slavery families at Hickory Point were driven j off at the point of the bayonet, and their horses and provisions stolen by the free State men. It is stated that the loss sustained by the citi zens of Lawrence hv the recent attack will amount j to SIOO,OOO. A letter to the Democrat, dated Topeka, 25th, says: “The U. S. District Court has adjoured till the second Monday in September. Judge Lecompte refused to admit Messrs. Robinson, Smith, Dietzler, Brown and Jenkins to bail, and thev will he held prisoners by the Marshal. General Pomery has gone to Washington, lie is a delegate to the Republican Convention which is to assemble at Philadelphia. FI KTHKR FROM KANSAS. Chicago, June 3.—Dates from Lawrence to the •i.itfi ult., have been received. The correspondent ot the Tribune sends a list of the property destroy ed at Lawrence, amounting to $130,000. The difficulty mentioned as occurring at Potto watomie Creek took place at Osawatomie. The quarrel arose from depredation by the pro-slavery men on the cattle of the free State men. On the 20th ult., the pro-slavery men seized a tree State man and hung him, when his wife tied and aroused the neighbors to the rescue. A fight ensued in which live pro-slavery men, and two free State men were killed. A force of sixty men has been organized at Westport, Misssouri to proceed to Osawatomie. Cincinnati Convention. Cincinnati. June 4.—The platform was reported j to-day. it embraces the general principles of the ■ last Convention ; denounces religious intolerance and proscription on account of birth.place, and af firms the principlesofthe Kansas and Nebraska act as embodying the only solution of the slavery (jues- ! tion, consistent with the non-interference of Con gress with slavery in the Suites and Territories. ' The platform Committee also reported the follow- ! iug resolutions: The first declares the Convention to be in favor of tree, seas and free trade throughout (lie world. The second, that the Monroe doctrine is sacred. | • The third says that the control of the highways 1 ot the Atlantic and Pacific should be secured. [ ' The fourth sympathises with tlie people of Cen- ' tral America in their effort to regenerate that por tion of the continent. The fifth expects the next Administration to make every proper effort hi insure our ascendency in the Gulf of Mexico, and to maintain the perma nent protection of tlie great outlets into it. The report of the Committee, with the exception of the above resolutions, was unanimously adopt ed, New Vork not voting. The Virginia delega tion asked and obtained leave to consider the five resolutions. The Convention then adjourned un til four o’clock this afternoon. ( Twins ati, J une s.—Yesterday the Committee on Credentials had an angry session on the New | York ease.

Mysteries of tlie Post Office Depart ment. “John C. Rives is responsible for the following; He said that when Amos Kendall was Postmaster General, he took a tour to the South and West, partly on private business, and partly to get the film off of his official optics, and see how postal matters were conducted. Os course he did not make himself known on every occasion, but he always looked on at every turn in post-route, and sometimes he learned something. At one place in Mississippi lie stopped, while traveling in tiie stage coach, at a rather insignificant village, hut where there was a ‘distributing-office’ of some im- ! purtancc. No one knew that he was the Post- I master General. The postmaster of the place was away from home, as he had been for some ' months, and the business of overhauling, sorting I and distributing Uncle Sant’s mails was iu the i hand of a ‘sub, iu the shape of an old negro wo- j man. The post office was kept iu a pretty good ■ sized room, and on one side ot il there was a he- ] tcrogenous mass that appeared something like a ! huge pile of mail matter; and it looked, too, 1 somewhat like a small tea garden. There were papers, letters, large and small packages of hooks, Ac., ‘in huge confusion piled around.’ The old black woman very deliberately unlocked the bags and emptied their contents out on tlie door. Amos j looked on, and like Satan marshaling his legions in pandemonium, he ‘admired.’ The darkey, af ter emptying the contents of the hags in the pile, commenced putting back, and in every pouch re placed a ‘miscellaneous assortment.’ 1 The Postmaster General had hts eyes opened ‘ some,’and it occurred to him to ask ‘Aunty’ if: 1 she could read. ‘Oh! no,’ said she; ‘but 1 puts j back just about as much as master used to!’ As the critic said of Macreadv, when lie asked the \ Danish courtier to play on the pipe and the i courtier took him at his word and played j Yankee Doodle! ‘Phancy Hamlick’s feelinks!’ i Fancy old Amos! But his observations were not t completed. There was an enormous pile of mail- I matter that hud been accumulating for months ; under the postal supervision of the sable ‘sub.’ It was after ‘ M. C.V had learnt the art of franking, and when their‘beloved constitooents’ were in the habit of applying for seeds and other products at the agricultural bureau of the Patent Office. The cucumber seed of those days were not all ; ‘basswood,’ as Kendall can testify. The seeds iu i the moist, warm climate of Mississippi had ger minated extensively, throughout this immense mass of ‘mail matter;’ cabbages, beets, carrots, cauliflowers were there; potatoes had sprouted; 1 while cucumber, pumpkin and squash vines, had extended out of the heap, and run nearly across the room ! It is supposed that the warmth of the ■ political documents, stimulated by the fierv nature ■ of Southern politicians, had added to, rather than “ 1 substractedfrom, the fertile nature of the postal ’ J compost!” New Orleans, June s.—The steamship Caltaw -1 ha lias arrived at this port from Havana, with ad- I vices to the 2d inst. Sugars had advanced under < the Black Warrior’s advices, aud a large business j Pad been transacted. The crop is estimated as be i ing two hundred thousand boxes short. The rainy , season had set in.

The resolution in relation to the Pacific railroad : was laid on the table by a majority of eighteen j votes. That in regard to our foreign policy—the re-af firming the principle of the Monroe doctrine— created some excitement with the Virginia delega tion, but was passed by a large majority. An equal portion of the two delegations from New \ ork, of the Hards and Softs, were admitted. The ballotting, it is presumed, will commence this afternoon. New York Market. New \ork, June s.— The cotton market has slightly improved. N'nw Orleans, June s.—Prior to the reception of the Niagara s advices 5,000 bales of cotton were l sold.

Several days ago Count j Sartiges received through the postoffice a newspa- j per containing a letter from a Washington corres- 1 pendent, treating of the settled antipathy of for eign governments towards the United States, as 1 now manifested by the conduct of the foreign rep resentatives in their iutercouse with society and our public men ; and which letter was superin duced by the alleged indecent and insulting lan guage against our government, and especially i against the Secretary of State, at a dinner recently given by Count Sartiges. The envelope enclosing ; the newspaper in question bore the* seal of the State Department. On Saturday, Count Sartiges called on Secretary Marcy, indignantly complaining of the insult, and demanding that its suspected author be punished, intimating that in event of failure to do this he would demand his passports. Mr. Marcv, of course, ; disavowed all knowledge or responsibility concern- ■ ing the letter, and expressed his regret that any-! thing had happened to occasion offence. Here was a quandary, but Count Sartiges was apparent ly satisfied, and the Secretary relieved from his i unpleasant position, bv the author who was a gov- j eminent employee, but who did not send the letter | to Count Sartiges, promptly resigning his olliee. j Additional by the Niagara.

Lord John Kussell gave notice in the British Parliament ot his intention to ask whether the : government intended to interfere between N icara gua and Costa Rica. The London Timex thinks that England and the United States must combine for the adjustment of Central American affairs, and suggests that the Czar he the umpire for America. The protocol of the Danish proposition, to which Itussia, Sweden and Oldenburg had i agreed, had been published. Denmark renounces ! the Sound and licit dues for 35,000,n0t) rix dollars, j but all the maritime powers must first assent to ; Denmark reserving the right to treat separately I with them. Denmark also demands security for ! the money. The excitement on the Italian ques- : tion continues. The British Ministry had again triumphed on the motion censuring the abandon- '• went of thu maritime law touching neutrals. The 1 Russian successes in the Crimea had been con- 1 firmed. Mr. Marcy’s Fetter, The Boston Dost thus notices the letter of Sec- j retary M arcy to Mr. Dallas on the dismissal of Mr. CitAMPTOX and the British Consuls : “ The letter of Secretary Mat ey to Mr. Dallas on the dismissal of Mr. Crumpton and the British Consuls should be read by every citizen. It is conciliatory in its tone, strong in its positions, and is throughout a masterly State paper. It forces the conviction that nothing but an imperative State necessity lias led to this step on the part of our Government. “ It is a well established rule of international law that any country, without giving offence, for solid and weighty reasons, may dismiss foreign ministers and agents ; and the justifiable reasons may be any such misconduct by said Representa tives towards a government to which they may be accredited as may render them personally unac ! ceptable. SuCh is the present ease. “ A prior ease of a dismissal of a British Minis j ter is that of Mr. Jackson, in 1809, He came im ■ mediately from Denmark, where lie hud been inso -1 lent and overbearing ; and his communications to i our government were considered grossly offensive. I At length, after much correspondence had passed, : the Secretary of State informed Mr, Jackson that no further communication would be received from ; him. Mr. Pinckney, our Minister to England, i made a representation of Mr. Jackson’s conduct j to the British government, and he was re-called. ! Fifteen months elapsed before a successor was up- j pointed. “ The conciliatory tone of the letter of the Earl ! of Clarendon has been cordially responded to by ! j Mr. Marcy , and therefore the dismissal is placed | I entirely on personal grounds. Hence there is lit- ! I tie, if any, cause to apprehend serious difficulties ; i to grow out of this extreme act, unless the British : I government, contrary to the tone of their comnui ! nications, are bent on creating difficult!'. The '• ; vast and vital interests of both nations point, to ; peace as their cardinal poliev ; and the way for ; each nation to preserve peace, is for each to respect ■ the laws and sovereign rights of the other.” From the Savannah Morning News.

J- DANFORTH. j ap2s tl.tetl iq j Capital for Young Men.—lt is a consolation for all right-minded young men, that though they may not be able to command as much pecuniary capital as they would wish, to commence business themselves, yet there is a moral capital which they I can have that will weigh as much as money with . ! jiersons whose opinion is worth having. And it i does not take a great while to accumulate a re ; spectable amount of this capital. It consists of 1 | truth, honesty and integrity; to which may be added decision, courage, firmness and perse verance. With these qualities, there are few ob stacles which cannot be overcome. Friends spring up and surround such a young man almost by magic. Confidence flows out to him, and busi ness accumulates on his hands faster than he can ask it. And in a few short years such a young man is far in advance of many who started with him, having equal talents and larger pecuniary means; ere long our young man stands foremost, trusted and loved. Would that we could induce every youthful reader to commence life on the principle that moral capital is the thing after all. Low Necked Dresses.—Bonaparte, desiring to change the fashion of wearing low necked dresses, resorted to a successful expedient. A numerous assembly of both sexes being congregated in the drawing-room of Luxembourg, the first consul entered, and after paying his respects to the com pany, ordered the servants to make a fire. He ef fected even to repeat his orders two or three times, till one of them took the liberty to observe that the grates would hold no more. “ Very well, very well,” replied Bonaparte in rather an elevated tone of voice, “ I was anxious to have a fire ; for it is excessively cold and besides, these ladies are al most naked.” Death of a Navy Officer.—lnformation has been received at the Navy Department, of the death, on the Ist inst., in New York city, of Lieut. Thomas C. Eaton, U. S. N'., attached to the coast survey steamer Corwin.— Star. COMMERCIAL. CHARLESTON, June 5. Cotton. —We quote a decline in prices of 3#>• on our last week’s quotations.

THIS 1 irticle compare favora- • bly with any of like character in the known world, .ijBSlsL I find that by putting it in the form of a Soap it gives it a decided advan tage over any Balm, Salve, Liniment. or Ointment that can be made for the cure of dis eases herein enumerated ; it also prevents its vir tue- from being impaired by nge or climate, and renders it very convenient for use. Its action is prompt, and at the same time harm less, as it contains no mercurial or other prepara tion injurious to the patient. This article, there fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers, Cuts, Flesh Wounds, Ring and Tetter Worm, Piles! Erysipelas, Scald Head, Itch, Nettle Rash, Salt Rheum, Chilblain, I’rickly Heat, Scurvy, Sore Eyes, Bone Felons, Old Sores, Sore Nippies, Ac. extract scurf and dandruff from the head, thereby preventing premature baldness. It is also one of the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and will cure the Fistula and Scratches in horses; extract tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a superior dcntiifice to the teeth. For shaving soap, it forms a rich lather, softening the beard, anti curing such sores as may be on the face. In the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and particular old sores, this soap has proved a balm indeed, by its wonderful healing powers. I can procure certificates innumerable were it necessary, but believing that a single cake is only requisite to prove its oiticacy as above stated, and wishing to avoid everything like humbuggery, I leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, not doubting they will then declare this to be the ne ■plus ultra of the age in die healing art.
