Mr. ituchniiHii on tin- Slavery Question. t he first, and all important question with South ern men, on the nomination of a candidate to till the chair of State, is—“what are his views on slavery " We propose to answer that interroga tory for Mr. Ituchanan, in his own language. hi Ist' 1 , Mr. Clay, iu the Senate of the United States presented, the petition of Michael 11. Har lan, praying for the abolition of slavery. There upon a debate sprung tip on the right of petition. Whereupon Mr. Buchanan took occasion to express his opinion of the same, and to refer to his previ ous course oti the subject of slaver*. In the se-Mon of Is "■.% said Mr. 15., when an alarming excitement prevailed on this subject throughout a large portion of the country, I took a decided stand against the Abolitionists. 1 then presented it memorial from the Cain Quarterly Meeting of the highly respectable religious society i of Friends of Pennsylvania, asking Congress to I abolish slavery in the District of Columbia ; and at the time of presentation, I declared that, upon j its reception, I should immediately move that the ( prayer of the memorialists he rejected. This me morial was received bv a vote of 3d to 10; and hit motion to i ejt-ct the prayer of it prevailed with but «iv dissenting voices. Since this decision, the Senate had adopted a practice which 1 think has proved eminently beneficial,because it has afforded us peace and quiet upon this subject. The memo- j ml is presented; objection is made to its recap- | timi, and a motion to lav the question of reception j upon the tahleis then immediately made and adopt- j el. This precludes all debates and all agitation. ) Now, said Mr. I>., in consequence of my conduct i liei .* throughout that session, I have borne the brunt of Abolitionism at home. 1 agree with the I Stouter from Kentucky that the danger has pass- l ed away, at least in Peousy Ivunia. The crisis is j mm over; and the fanaticism which threatened i>> Invade the constitutional rights of the South, aud to dissolve the Union, has been nearly extin gut died. fbe battle has been fought where it must ever ! lie fought, not in the South, hut in the North. It j is • of the North who must ever sustain the shock in such a contest. Under these circum stances, I appeal, most solemnly, to Senators from the si.n ,-holding States, w hether they ought not to hr governed, in a groat degree, by.our advice as to ; the mode in which these Abolition petitions shall j be treated. It is impossible after all which has ; passed, that they can doubt our devotion to the i ■•mi iituiional rights of the South. This was twenty years ago. Need vve say the sir. ■ principles have characterized his course from then until now? Or can any one doubt his un- ; averring devotion to the constitutional rights of the South ? When now his head silvered o’er w ith age he fearlessly poclaiins his adherence to the same faith by his endorsement i f the Kan.-a.s-Xe> j hraska bil. Southern men cannot long hesitate be- ' tiv-eu two men, one of whom, (Mr. Buchanan) boldly a-.serts his advocacy of their principles; ! and the other . Mr. Fillmore) chooses to preserve a "politic silence.” Choose ye between the two. I For the above extract of Mr. Buchanan’s remarks. ’ iide Con. Globe, vol. 7, p. Is:'. Fiilbri/ed. We lind in the Savannah /Jr/oi-lican, of Wed- ! u.-sday, an account of the proceedings of a late • meeting of the American party of Chatham. Among the i-solutions unanimously adopted, we notice the i following rather striking one : ” liftedcl, That whatever may have been the arguments against the expediency of the repeal of : the ‘ Missouri Compromise Act,’ it has become the j duty of every good citizen to maintain the system \ of laws w hich has been substituted in its stead, j and to suppress, to the extent of his ability, all I factious and turbulent opposition to their enforce- i meat.” Decidedly, Mahomet has gone to the mountain. Two years ago, when the Kausas-Nobrasku bill had . ju<t become n law, a Georgia public meeting would have been as far from passiug such a resolution as they would have been from approving the then I position of Mr. Fuller. There was nobody in the I State who talked about the expediency of the re peal of the Missouri Compromise act; everybody j said it was right, and everybotlv joined in the gen- < era I joy which attended the announcement of its passage. One year ago, nobody doubts, the resolution j would have been rejected In the .Mann Cotiven- j ti nt. But the Philadelphia Convention shook the ; stern faith for the southern Americans. The con test of Speaker and the late nominating Cotiven- , tion demoralized them altogether, the result of ] which we see in the above wishy-washy resolu tion. Next year vve expect to bear a “deploring '■ tin- removal of the compromise line.” The causes of this change are apparent. The j American party South, unable to find leaders of j their own opinions, were forced to adopt the opin- j ims of their leaders. In supporting Fuller for ! Speaker, they were forced to defend him. iu de- j feuding him they were forced to espouse his itosi- j tiou. But his teas not a matter in which the body j of the people were interested, and the American j partv would probably have remaiued silent upon I the Nebraska question, but for the nomination of j Mr. Fillmore. But this known opposition to that i celebrated measure renders it necessary that hi* j partisans should speak out as the Savaunah meet- j mg have done. Henceforth, the southern Arnet t- ; cans will no longer support the principles of the ' Kansas bill, for to do so would be to condemn Mr. Fillmore. The choice was between Democracy : and anti Nebraska- and they have chosen the j tatter. Atlanta IhtJUgtn&r, .sane / -ii - l ( '■ <J Ad u rtis. Old It tick on the ‘southern Question. ; At the very start iu the big race about to come j oft’, it is well to turn and see what Mr. Buchanan j [« ha- said tn wars that are past, indicative of his ; feelings and principles in regard io those issues in ; which the South is directly interested. Germain j t.i this consideration, a letter turns up in the j i Washington > r.tinel, written by th.s distinguish- j • d statesman in Is.oo, and from which vve pluck I the following passages : "Hest assured that all the patriotic emotions of even true-hearted Pennsylvanian, in favor of the Union and the Constitution, are shared by the southern people. What battle field has not been illustrated bv their gallant deeds; and when in our historv have they ever shrunk from sacrifices aud sufferings in the cause of their country?

Time#, June 4- Our Foreign Relation*. i _We have received fresh intelligence from the United .States as to the progress of Ministerial opinion and resolution with reference to this coun s try, and are sorry to find that the prospects of a settlement of the dispute seem more remote than over. We fear that the letter notifying to this government the dismissal of Mr. Crumpton mat lie every dav expected in England. This event winch, seen through the nnst of future, was ealem Jatod to inspire the most glooniv apprehensions seems to have lost a little of its magnitude as it comes nearer, and to be, after all, a not unendura ble evil. Considering how much vve have already borne how we have apologized and re-apologized—how we have offered to refer our case to arbitration, mid submitted to see that arbitration refused— . how we have argued, expostulated, and remonstra ted, and all to no purpose, vve may well allow this 3 incident to pa-s over with the rest. We have, at ( any rate, in this case, the melancholy satisfaction iliat we are able to make a complete reprisal, and 'hat a fortnight after Mr. Crampton has ceased to represent ns at Washington, Mr. Dallas will no . longer exercise his functions as Representative of i the United States at the Court of St. James. There will, however, be this remarkable differ , cnee between the two eases—that Mr. Dallas has been treated with all respect, while Mr. Crampton will be ordered to leave the territory of the Union > after having endured more than probably any British Representative in any foreign Court cluriug I the preseut century has been called upon to sub ! mit to. Not only has Mr. Crampton been subject • ed to a virtual trial in the persona of Messrs. Hertz and Strobel, whose veracity he has publicly and I solemnly disputed, apparently not without very ' sufficient reason, but a new method of annoyance has been discovered, by which it is sought not t.terelv to give a color to lus dismissal, but to fix ini indelible stain on a hitherto spotless character, and to send our Minister back to England not on j ly dismissed, but degraded. i Mr. Crampton has advisedly stated in his letters to Ford Clarendon that Mr. Clayton, Mr. Matey, | aud Mr. Cass have severally admitted to him that kuatun is an undoubted British possession, with i which America has not the slightest claim to in- J terft-re. This statement is met with denials more ! or less earnest from the different persons implica '■ ted by it. But, besides these, evidence is now i produced that Mr. Crampton has himself admitted j the falsehood of his own statements. What an swer obr Minister may he able to make to these accusations we do not know. In the meantime, it seems very difficult to believe that a man of expe rience and ability should make deliberately and advisedly official statements which he has felt ; himself, when challenged, obliged to withdraw. Here are Mr. Crampton s own words; in the ■ very last letter of the blue book on Central Amer j ica : “It will he within your Lordship’s recollec- J tiou that Mr. Clayton was informed bi .Sir Henry ! lhilwer, before the treaty of 1850 was signed, that ! kualan was de jure aud d■ fact -a British posses j won ; and Mr. Clayton has on various occasions I since, in conversation with me, stated that he con : -idered Ruatan as much a British possession as | Jamaica or any other British West India island." 1 It seems incredible that such a statement ran have ■ Keen disavowed so soon after it was made, and un- I der circumstances socritical, and yet this is now the i accusation which is pressed against Mr. Crampton, i and which the United States' Ministry intend to support. Me must hear both sides before we condemn I any one, but to us it certainly looks as if the at terupt to injure Mr. Crampton by the evidence of | Hertz and Strobel having failed, some new device | was to be hit upon in order to justify, in the eyes "f the American people, the determination of the i government by some means or another to remove ‘ the representative of Great Britain. At any rate, is' Mr. Crampton only remains at Washington to j be held up by the American people as a man per- I petuullv striving to undermine them bv intrigue ; or traduce them by calumny; if an institution in \ troduced and devised tn the interests of peace is lo be perverted for the purposes of mutual irrita tion and recrimination, it would seem far better j that, fora time at least, diplomatic intercourse should cease, and, at any rate, that this ground of i offence should be taken away from between us. j The American Government is doing ils utmost to . reconcile us to the impending dismissal of our j Minister, and to convince us that his absence, how ever much to be regretted in ordinary times, is I now a less evil and danger than his remaining tn a | place where offence seems so sure to be given and | taken. Something more, apparently, than the denuneia : lions of their Government, the debates, of their Senate, and the accusations of their press, is ue- I < essarv to convince the American people that they have fallen into the hands of men who are em j harking on wild and dangerous courses, with no : fixed object blit their own immediate popularity, | with no fixed principle but their re-election to of i (ice. 11 has become so entirely a part of the Anter- Itean practice at least, of the practice of those possessed of cultivated minds and considerable properties—to stand aloof from the fierce struggles of politics, and to leave the game to be fought out by more ignoble hands, that they seem to have i extended to foreign relations the same apathy which they exercise with regard to domestic af fairs, and to feel great surprise that any one : should think of treating their government as the real and efficient exponent of the national will, in stead of some fortuitous agglomeration of atoms | whirled together by the inexorable vortex of party and political necessities, and possessing no other 1 object in common than the desire to retain the prize they have won al whatever cost, arid by i whathcrcr means. This view of their government is repeatedlv presented to us by educated Americans, and we are desired to turn from the violence of popular i leaders aud scheming politicians to the opinion ol’ ’ those great classes who comprise the wealth, the respectability, and the equilibrium of the nation. All we can say is, that wc have waited and up | , .caled in vain; that step after step has the gov ; eminent of General Pierce advanced in its career i of violence and aggression, while no voice has been raised, no band stretched out, lo arrest a ' course so full *d danger and discredit. America will not submit to arbitration, because she is de ; tenuiued to seize Nicaragua, whether the terms of ; the Clayton treaty authorize the seizure or not, aud 1 every advance we make is sure to be met in a I spirit which seeks grounds for provocation out of every effort to conciliate. From the people of America, in w hose name 1 these things are done, but with whose consent and assent w o firmly believe they are not done, w e seek j for aid in vain. They give their government but little support, but they do nothing to control it, and by their Constitution they are unable to re- I move it. Under these circumstances, we can only ; reiterate the suggestions w T e have made before— f that w e should avoid all occasions of offence, w ith ; draw all points ol contact, restrict ourselves with in our own rights, and wait with patience to see | whether the objects of the American government i mav not be satisfied by something short of the last extremity. Front the I. otdov Junes, June ;■. A War oi Spain Against Mexico. —A war of Spain against Mexico? If seems rather a dream to amuse the imagination than a serious inet deiit in the sober domain of reality. * Can the Spain of 1- .5*5 send forth from her shores an army which could compete with any reasonable chance of success with the modern Mexicans upon their own soil ? We know vrhat incredible efforts ii required front France and England to transport their legions to the Crimea, and to maintain them there how prodigal was the expenditure of our treasure, how great the sacrifice of British and of French live* ; and is Spain equal to a similar en terprize V M e cannot perceive in her, under pre sent conditions even, the remotest elements of success. AH the armed force the Spanish gov ernment can muster is needed at home for the maintenance of order. Spain has no armed, no mercantile marine, worthy of serious account. It will he well for her, if, with her utmost efforts, she ; can succeed in retaining possession of that mag nificent island—the great jewel of the Antilles- • w hich still owns the dominion of the Spanish Hag. For defence she would have with her the svm pathies of Europe—for attack she would stand alone. The only result of her efforts would be to cover the Spanish name in those distant regions with new confusion and disgrace, and to pave the wav for foreign aggression in Cuba. The Spaniard who admits into his dreams the wild fancy of re- gaining on the mainland of America that whifli, once lost, was lost to him for ever, reckons with- ■ out the presence of an antagonist with whom he at least is unable to cope. Not a month would , pass front the day that the first of the half-dozen ! ships which constitute the Spanish navy had dri ven into Vera Cruz the brig which constitutes the navy of Mexico, when swiftly and sharply the government at Washington would intervene in the discussion, and remove its solution to the Bay of Havana. Far mightier interests are at stake just now in the West than any in which Spain hears part. Let her stand aside if she be wise, and leave the arena clear to others who may be driven to descend into it, however much against their will. J-s?

Shaw should be widely circulated and t carefully read. The statements’ made by Mr. ■ i Smith in this letter have not been hurriedly or in- | r considerately grouped together, but are the result i , of careful, patient, and impartial investigation. ! - The letter was written, not with a view of securing j , any unworthy personal or political ends, but iu | : order that the people of the South might see that i when Mr. Fillmore is claimed as a sound national man, the opponent of sectionalism, and therefore I t ready at all times to discharge his constitutional j ' obligations faithfully and zealously, the claim is as j , unsubstantial as it is utterly worthless: Washington, June 7,1850. Dear loir: I received your letter some time : 1 since, and was at the time investigating the sub ject to which you refer. In Tennessee, as well as North Carolina, one of the principal charges I agaiust the present Democratic administration is ; “the appointment of Freesoiiers to office;” and I . this charge is made by the present supporters of j Mr. Fillmore for President of the United States. | This charge against President Pierce, though un founded, yet coining from the source it does, has ied me to examine carefully the political, or rather serf tonal, views of the appointees of Mr. Fillmore j during his Presidential term. This has been a work of no little labor, and has ; required some time, which accounts for the delay I in answering your letter. I pon this investigation I find the following : facts: Ist. Everv man appointed to any important of- j fiee by Mr. Fillmore while President, whose resi dence was North 'of Mason & Dixon’s Tine, includ ing thru memlnrs'of hi# Cabinet, was a Freesoiler, and in favor of the “Wilrnot proviso.” 2d. One of the leading members of his cabinet, the Hon. Thomas Corwin, of Ohio, Secretary of the Treasury, was a prominent Abolitionist. Bd. Every one of the appointees before re- : t’erred to, who had taken any public position on the slavery question, was known, at the. time of hisap - ! pointment, to be in favor of the prohibition ofsla- ; very in the Territories, 1 4th. Most of those front the same section re- j tained in office by Mr. Fillmore, who had previous- i ly been appointed by President Tayler, were i Freesoiiers or WilmotProvisoists. sth. President Pierce has appointed no man to j office since he was inaugurated who in the canvass j of 1852, and at the time of his appointment, was 1 not believed by him to stand on the national De mocratic platform of 1852, which expressly denies I to Congress the power to legislate on the subject of slavery in the States or Territories. Oth. The difference, therefore, in this respect j between the two Presidents, is this : that while Gen. Pierce may h ive appointed some Freesoiiers ! to office without a knowledge of the fact that they were such at the time, Mr. Fillmore’s appointees in the northern States were e//,Freesoilers, and 1 known to he such at the time of their appoint ment. I have made this examination and comparison | 1 with no view to injure Mr. Fillmore, because I ; think the subject of appointments to office and the j • distribution of executive patronage small matters 1 when compared with the great principles now at j issue between the various parties of this country. I shall do Air. Fillmore full justice in the coming 1 i canvass for his conduct while President, and shall j ! not deny to him the credit of executing faithfully j the laws of the country. I have taken the time to 1 < make this investigation !■> show ihe ignorance, j | the. inconsistency, or the insincerity of his sup- ! > porters in the southern States, whose principal , objection to ihe present administration is the nn- j founded charge of “the appointment of Freesoiiers i to office." Excuse the briefness of this letter. Yours, truly, S. A. Smith lion. It. M. Shaw.

He came to this city in October 1840, and took a situation as journeyman in this j office; and from that time to this he ha ; never left his post, stepping from journeyman tn foreman, j aud then proprietor. He has never lost a day from | his duties by sickness or pleasure, during the six- : teen years —always to be found at hr post frem early dawn to a late hour of the night A great ! number of apprentices have learned their trade under him, and he did not consider that his duty j was done by them, unless they could put up, in good order, twelve hundred cm's per hour do j any kind of a job, on hand or power press, and j keep sober. One of his apprentices, after serving out his | time, and entering the world on his “own hook," j as a “jour,” often met with dissipated and worth- 1 less printers, who made every effort to seduce him 1 into their practices, was asked by one of them ; where he learned his trade; he had never met such"a sober print, r before, and wanted to know where he was trained. The “jour” replied, “ 1 learned my trade with a man who always tried to impress on his apprentices, two important points of success industry to get a good trade, aud sobriety to make it profitable.” The State printing just finished at this office, has been done mostly by young men who learned their trade under Mr. li.; and we doubt very much whet her any otherfour men could be found, who would do the same amount of work in the same time, without getting ‘ ‘on a bust,’’ ■ several times during the progress of the work.

There appears no doubt of Walker’s retreat from Rivas, after a heavy loss, both on his part i and that of the tlosta Ricans. The latest intelli gence informs hs that Walker was in Virgin Ray with T"o men, about to invade Costa Rica; that he j had 200 men in Granada and fiOO elsewhere, that ! ! his force consisted altogether of 1,000 foreigners and ! about ">no natives; and that owing to the depriva tions they w ere undergoing there was a great deal of dissatisfaction among his troops. This is the j sum total of what we have been able to gather by the British steamer recently arrived from Grey town.
