STILL LATER.
rxpress’y for the Times and Sentinel.
New York, April 26—11f m
Peace C inference at Vienna met on ih • Bth. and the ses
sion las-ted one hour. The Russian En - o/ iai not re
ceded m-truetioh*. and was n ,t prepared to act.
Tt was rumored, bit doubted, that the English and
French Plenipotentiaries were about to leave Vienna.
Every thing stands still, and peace prospects ware very
slight.
D lies from Sevastopol are to the 11 ii. Affairs were
un-hanged. The Rursart* were receiving large reii f.nce
ment-*, and had convene 1 ambuscades into advanced pa.al
lels, and erected two new battelies despite the tfib.ts of
the Allie-*.

never quarreled about his pay. Who is he ? What is

to adveitertise so much matter at such a pn v —say 25
per cent, less than they themselves recei.e. Os course
their olfers are generally declined hy suec. ssfui and
pn fitable papers ; but there are al .vays pleiny f papers
that contain “dead matt r” which arc v. tiling to adver

These loin rs ol correspomieuc- are vvtl! writt- n and
are suiti and to the politus and section it tne ddtceiu pa

sinss relations. The letter tor the Charleston Mercu

be cause w. think it would admit such cumspondetne j
into its columns,) would be very different in its ton.
and comments to that communicated to the Cleave

answer for all papers in the South which hi longed ti
the same class in politics, as would that of the P.ain

So far as th se Houses follow ttoir legitimate busi
ness, vvt- have no cause of quarrel with them; thougi
we c m bat regret that pub i>hers at the South wd j
publish for them at such scandal >uly low prices. Bj
it is outrageous ihav they are fallowed to mould putd
semim.nt at theSmth with their stereotyped *eurre*
potider.ee.” New Y-nk, unfortunately, is the great com
nierci il centre of tfie Union, and,do what we w 11, mus
exert an undue ii tiueuce upon pubic-opinion in tver- j
quarter of the Union. As lug as the local pros i
prm ded over bv native intellect, there is not much da.,
ger from New Yotk influenots. But when we trans
fer to New York a depaitinent of the 1 >cal press, an

It is not uncommon to find in these very papers, whie
parade in their columns such c-iptim s as that whie
beads this article, the mo-a rigorots stneturts upon th
practice, but too common at the South, of putroniziu
nartbero Periodicals at the expense and to the ujur #
of these published at heme But the practice of south
-ru publishers in publishing 4 eo r spoade- ce’’ mani
ufactured to order in northern citi-s is as blamevro: thy j
as that of,south* rn people in pa'roniz ng north ru
peis. In tin- one erse the source is kno vn and guarde
agiinst, and due allowance made for northern prtju
and ees and vieae ; but in the other case, the views, ei it
cl-oi’S and prejudices of the north- rn cities H'e sent u

m -..ns that the author of it is in the employ of th.
sou hern publisher, and not of the northern advertis.ng
ag. ncy, s s in fact he is.
Os course we do riot mean to charge that all papers
at thf South which erj <y the fvcility of having a New

it in this way. We only mai to say that many and •
and to condemn them for ss doing The ev 1, too, is
a gr.iwing one, arid must be discontinued if we wish to

b. tween the North and the South.
“Times & v entin I and lion. Robert Tooiub.”
It is exceedingly diffi-iJty for us to reply to an artiel
which gives up the point in controversy, and jet main

the honorable S nator by announcing that h was op

that in doing this we “affirmed what no body i as ever

!We affi in thot so far from sympathiznig with th.o or.

I We contess that the recent change in our estimate
|of Mr. ‘Found s was sudden. Asa Know Nothing we
regaid. and him as the enemy of Republicanism. As the
opponent of Know Nothings we regarded him sa a
co win ker in the cause of < qual rights and popular
liberties. We do iot blame ou s Ives for having rn a
stateo his views on ihe subject. Our facts w -re furnish
ed hy the Columbus Enquirer. But we are indebted
to ourselves for arm ng at the tru h We sought it from
M . loon* s pets un.liy and got it in full measure. In re
P*y to the q lestion t.f the E iquirer as to how it came
to pass ifiat we were th* first to acquaint ours-lve* with
the tiue views of th • adroit party leader, the foreg >ing
is a satisfactory answer. Wdl the Enquirer inform u
how it happened that it wis a., slow on the trail ? VI
it because it found itself barking up the wrong tree?
As to ..ur “ntt. inpts to c c-h .te the fivor or eareeni
of our distinguished Senator by barefac and honey fug

wllas we do. We have no fiv as to ask oi the ands

h nee it is, that in ‘uking position, we nev. r wait fo>
the key note; and th.reby avoid ihe evil cons, qu* no< *
and inbarrassment of raising a tune we cannot sing
through. Dots the Enju rer take?
We are very happy to find that the Enquirer j > n*
i-i a call upon Mr. Toombs to address the people o
Columbus on his return f oin his plantation. We h>p
