To the Editor of the Enquirer and Ex aminer : Iu 1837, John C. Calhoun, whose pcisp ouitv wug so wonderful that his prophecies have become history, thus ad dressed the Seuate of ihe United Statos : “He assured that emancipation itself would not satitly ther-e fanatics ; that gained, the next step would be to raise the negroes to a social and political equality with ihe whites* and that be ing effected, wo would soon find the present condition cf the two races rever sed.” “1 Bpcak with full knowledge and a through examination of the sub ject, and, fur one, see n;y way clearly. One thing alarms me—:bo eager pur suit ol gain which overspresds the land, aud absorbs every faculty of the mind ami every feeling of the hear!. Os all passions, avarice is the most blind aud uneomproniising~ihe last tosce and the first to yield to danger. I dare not hope that anything 1 can say will arouse the South to a tiua sense (if danger; I fear it is beyond the power of m rial voice to a sake it in time from the fatal security into which it has fallen.” By the fist of fate emancipation, stt eped in the blood cf thousands, has come upon us with a curse more dread ful than the locusts and frogs of Egjpt. Bo much of the prophecy then, has been fulfilled. The social and politi cal equality of whiles and blacks ftarcs us iu the face. If may bo forced upon us ; but has avarice so absorbed “every faculty of the mind and every feeling of the heart,” that Virginians, for pal try pelf, should don their own rob sos disgrace, that they should help rcve:se the proud motto of tho glorious Old Dominion, *nd lick tfco tyrant’s foot which oppresses her fair neck? Can her sons have so degenerated as, with voluntary band, to place this fitigma upon her fair old name ? If our con querors have the power to foroe a “re publican constitution’ upon us, with its damning principle of social aud politi cal equality, they have neither the pow er nor the right to compel us to degrade ourselves by voting for it.. Every true Virginian who has the honor of his old Btute at heart, who holds saertd her past history, w ll en ter his protest against ary system of organic laws which hehimsolf has had no voice in framing. When after ages shall mark the change in the history of Virgiuia under the “new constitution,” let it be recoidcd that her sons, true to the last, refused to sign her death war rant, aud entered upon the black era with a strict submission to the decree of an inevitable fata. Unlcsn the “new constitution” is mate rially modified, let every Vtrgiuian to whom the memory of the past is sacred, and who holds dcir the iicnor of bis old Stale, go to the polls aud enter bis protest against its adoption. llanoVer: It’s Dark. The following beautiful sentiments are from Meister Kan’s Sketch Book, entitled the “Night of Heaven.” It is full of touchicg tenderness ; “It is dark when the honest aod honorable man sees the result of years swept cruelly away by the knavish, heartless adversary. It is dark when he feels the clouds cf sorrow gather round and knows that the hopes and happiness of otters are fading with his own. But in that hour the memory of past integrity will be a true conso lation, and assure him even hero on earth of gleams of light in Heaven. It is dark when the dear voice of that sweet obi Id once fondly loved, is no more heard around in murmurs. Dark when the pattering feet no more re sound without tho threshold, or ascend step by step up stairs. Dark when some well known air recalls the strains once oft attuned to childish voice now hushed in death I Darkness; but only theghom which now heralds tho daj spring c 4 immortality, and the icfiiuite light of lleavcu.

Attomptod Oiitratfc of Tour While l.inilcx by Ihe IMejjro. JUiliiia noil»’ NSiti’ioii, Ai’katt sum. All accounts from Crittendon county 1 arc ct similar import, and confirm tho' worst that has been told oouoorning the conduct pf the Military toward the ! citizens. The negro military arc rov-1 ing over the country in strong armed sqund\ taking everything they fancy 1 and destroying much that they cannot! carry. A reign of terror prevails which I is difficult to be undcistood abroad, i The wort.l days of the war have returned upon the people. All business is sus pended aud the people are afraid to complain or attempt to escaps. D y bolore yesterday a gang of the military went to the house ot Mr. Jack Ware, near Marion, an original and consistent Union man, and sacked his premises of every thing valuable. He was well to-do in the world, but the work of nearly a life-time was swept away heft re his eyes in an hour. Many other citiz ns in tho neighborhood wore treated in tho same way. On the same day a party of the negro milhurj attempted to outrage the per sons of four highly respoctablo wLile ladies—Mrs, Jeff R-eics, Miss Swops ton, daughter of the newly elected Rad ical county clerk, and two otLers, names unknown. By borne means they were foiled in their damnable attempt*, and several of them were arrested. The offi cerß threatened to make exatnplos of them, but so far all examples have been on the ot! er side. I.ast Thursday night wo learn the five citizcr.s who have been held as “hcßlages” were hung up by General Upbam until li e was nearly extinot, to try to force them to disclose tact* sup posed to be iu their possession. Nothing, however, was elicited, as tho victims of this torture probably kuew nothing to t ill. When cut down it was fouud that they were Dearly dead, and one of the members were restored to life with grew, difficulty. The statement oomes frvm a reliable freedman, and is supposed by respectable testimony Friday night three of these citizens were spirited away, aud have not since been hoard from. Their fate is unknown ; bu no one knowing tho reckless character of the military would be surprised to hear that the geutlcmec so long incarcerated and tortured without cause, except mere barhaiism, hud been murdered in the woods. Two others are yet in jail at Marion, and have but glimmering hopes of liberation, or even life. We aresaiisli and that tbo tenth pari of tho many cu;rages committed daily by the military in Arkansas has never beon published, and probably never will be. The means of violence and op pression are abundant, but tuc com plaints of the wronged people travel on tardy wings. It was reported yes’erj: y that tie negro mil t-ry had nearly all left the neighborhood of Maiijn for Mississippi county, above, whore they will of course re euaot the fearful scenes of plunder, and ruin, and personal injury prepe trated in other portions of the untoriu nato State. Northkry Sympathy with “Rkb els.”—The New York 'Time* says; It is a littl • carious to observe with what intense Je'iglit we (tear of a re bellion against any Govirumcut, no matter what it is, or where it is, so it be not our own. VVe don’t stop to in quire into the o' j :xit of tho result, irs uiolkcs or chances of success, orwhethcr it is likely tobenifit or ruin who ongage in it. 11 it is only a rebellion against a Government, that is all wo ask. It has all our sympathy—all our good wishes—all the help we can give it without getting iuto tronblc ourselves. The Fenians in Ireland— the handful of Cretan* st« ving in hopes of overthrowing the Turkuh Govern ment—the Spanish Liberals ovortbiow iug the monarchy. And now the Cu baus rebelling against the Spanish Lib crals—they ail h.ve the sympathy and encouragement of our people. The previ ent idea with us on this sul j c stems to be that all government is bad and ought to be overthrown, aud that wo’re bound by on’ principles, our tras ditious and our interest to help those noble spirits who rebel against authori ty any win re or ot whatever sort. One would thick oor own experience should teach us the necessity of some discri mination in this matter. We insisted that no foreign nation should sympa thy with our rebels, no matter what they might think about the causes of their rebellion. The whole thing was nono of their business. Have we any more concern with Crete, or of SpaiD, or Cuba, or Ireland, than England had with us during our war 1 Meu without Hearts. We sometimes meet with men who seem to think that any indulgence in an affectionate feeling is weakness, they will return from a journey and greet their families with a distant dig nity, and move among their children with tho cold and lofty splendor of an iceberg surrounded by its broken frag ments. There, is hardly a mere un natural sight on eaith than one of those families without a heart. A father had better Sx’ingulsh a boy’s eves thau tako away his heart. Who that has expo ioncvd the jys of friendship, and values sympathy and affection, would not rather loose all that is beaoti ful in natuio’s soencry thau be robbed of tho hidden treasuier of bis heart? Cherish ; thon, your heart’s best affec tions. Indulgo in the warm and gush ihg emotions of trial, paternal, and fra ternal love.--.Vf.32 Mtildch. Vol. 11l No. SO. The Columbia County Murder* Tho fiendish murder (as was suppo-- sed) ol Mr Martin and bis two maiden bisters, in Columbia county, a week or | two ago, was mentioned at the time. We learned last night frond a gentlc ! man recently in that vicinity, that •» white man named Aodcrsen TTpton and three negroes were subsequently arrested on suspicion of the murder and lodged iu jail at TLomson. On Sun day night last a party of men in dis guise forced au entrance into the jail* and carried off the man Upton and tba negroes—since which time they have not been seen or heard from. Th*- reasonable presumption is that they were put to death. Our informant learned that Upton—who was a “bosom frieud” of Martin’s—confessed be for# loaving that he aod several negross murdered Mr. Martin and his sister*,, secured his money—s6oo in gold—and* set fire to the house in order to oonceal. their crime ; that the money was given l in charge of a negro, who made his es cape and bad not been beard from sines. This is truly a fearful state of society, and greatly to bo deplored.* —Augusttv Brest, 8/A.

Hs had been at work outting wood OB' shares, and afier having received a quan-~ tity of wood he offered to sell it for s3* 50 cash. The man bought it, but when' he came to take it away be could not pay for it. Arnold objected to his ta~ king it, but tho man claimed thst hs’ owned it, and insisted upon taking it away, whereupon Arnold threatened 1 him bodily injury. After his arrest ilf wus learned that Arnold’s family bwii become so poor as to be unable to buy' food, and had gone for three days with out anything to eat, when finally they killed their dog and ate it np, after that an old horse belonging to Arnold!' was killed, and at the time of his arrest his farni y were subsisting on borso seat. ATito Haven Courier. A Financial Crash Predicts!).—> The Baltimore Commercial says : *‘A friend of ours, just from New York,, called in to sec us to-day, and says that! a heavy money pressure exists there,, which, it is believed by many of tbs* best citizens and most reliable fibart-* oiors, must terminate in a financial' break up more disastrous than has over yet occurred cn this continent.- The gaities and lavish displays of thw city are tho false excitements which in general preceao tho crisis of disease, j The failures that have already occurred ! arc not so significant as the harrowing anxiety di-played on every hand for get ling off enormous stocks of goods on a!» most any terms that may bring money.’” Nothing is more necessary than tlis help of God’s Spirit.
