lowing explicit letter to Mr.. c. Gibbons of Pa.

NASHVILLE, July 25, 1874.
Charles Gibbons, Esq.--Dear Sir:-By the
mail enclose you two publications of Col. Polk s
during the last Summers canvass on the subject
Of the Tariff. etc. From these publications you
will perceive that the Col. is dead out against
Protection, and particularly opposed to the dis
tribution of the proceeds Of the public Lands be-
cause. he says, it is Tariff measure. 1t sounds
stran yely to US who have been accustomed 10
hear Col. Polk to hear it stated that he is Tar

him on more than one hund red and fifty fields.

Mr.. Gibbons then read extracts from the docu-

..Nalchman. what OF DE ntghtr,

The skies are bright, and betoken much for
the democracy, in every section of our beloved
country. II is easy TO assert that a particular
State is certain for Mr.. Van Buren or Mr.. Clay,
but mere assertions have little weight nowadays,
People like to deal in facts and figures, rather
than assertions and guessings. In lS40 many Of
the states composing the old democratic phalanx,
deviated from the path of recttude and correct
principles; but how do they stand nowa-It will
be seen by the statement below, that all the er-
ring states have nobly redeemed themselves
from the stains ofhard cider foolery. Is it rea,
sonable to suppose that they will again embrace
the harlot, FEDERALISM? We trow not.

OREGON.

The South Carolina papers say that Mr. Cal
houn goes into the cabinet with disposition to
compromise away portion of Oregon to Eng
land. We hope this is not so, but in truth we
fear, judging from the past course of Mr.. Calhoun
in relation to the territory of Oregon, that he is
not the man at this time, who will maintain oul
rights. Our title to Oregon from the 42d paral
lei Of North latitude to 81 deg, 40 min. NortE
latitude, is as clear as our title to the State o
Ohio, and if Mr.. Calhoun is willing to give on,
half Of this away, he will soon learn that th'
American people understand the art of pulling
triggers! For the life Of us we never could SCI

Trade as he travels on and talks. His last speech
was few days since at Columbus, Georgia. He
now declares himself for the Compromise in fu-
tureiU Hear him,-hear him. He said of the
Compromise
"Infuenced by desire to avert the coming
danger, anxious to perpetuate the union and give
place to distracted country, he had brought
forward the compromise act, and aided in its
passage. In his subsequent life he had adhered
to its prorisions--OS.5-AN AND SHOULD DO so IN TU-
TURE!!"
In Clay's Hanover speech, of the 18th June
1910, he asserts these principles to be those en-
tanned by him on the subject Of protection:
"The question cannot be, ought not to be, bu
of measure and degree. Iadopt that of the com
promise act, not because it is irreparable, bu
because il met the sanction of the nation. Sta

Charles Dioh, on the morning Of the lst instant,
murdered in cold blood his wife and one child;
horribly mutilated another, and a third, (the ell

He was of Incorporate habits, was in destitute
circumstances, and it is said he was partially de-
ranged for some weeks past. After perperating
the revolving butchery ofhis family, he attempted
to commit suicide by cutting his throat, and sir-
king himself on the head with fiat iron. He
has been committed to prison to await his trial.

either deny or pronounce a forgery! What

They have discovered that Henry Clay keeps
no committee TO dohis thinking. He writes and
publishes his own letters; and if his opinions for
the southern market are unpalateabe to the taste
of his supporters in the north it surely is not our
fault.
Every thing we have yet published as coming
from Mr.. Clay, on the subject of the Tariff, has
been first publishedn the southern federal sheets.
The Richmond Wing, Mobile Tribune, and N.

friend of Southern opinions. These papers
support him, not because he is stakeholder, not
because his hands are stained with the blood Of
