British Gold and Loco FOcO Patriot.

The brainless twattle Of the Loco Foco press
about British gold British Wings, with other SINH
lar things, has had its day, but with the excitement
of the late Presidential election, had pretty much
passed off. When this senseless clamor was loud

ses, and others interested in free trade, in carrying
ON the recent Presidential contest, in getting up

teresis, were permitted to enjoy a OF re-
pose, and our ears were for awhile relieved from
the obstIeperous din OF Loco Foco jargon. But
alas the spell is again broken, and we now hear
the voice of one who may be considered as the best
specimen of South Carolinian chivairy and Loco
F0co patriotism lit is the voice of GEORGE Nc
DUFFIE, the abest and most distinguished Loco
Foco in the U. s Senate. This Loco Foco cham
pion unblushingly erais in British prosperity as
much as in that Of Charleston or Ne'o York, and
Much MORE than in that of Boston. The prosperity
of the capital and pride Of New England sickens
the heart of this Loco Foco leader, while his Amer
lean soul reoces and leaps with JOY al the prosper

We defy the whole Loco Foco legion 10 show
from the Of political warfare, more anti
American, anti.republican sentiment than con-
tanned in this extract from letter written by one
OF their most prominent leaders Here is nan
high in the affections of his party, who shamelessy
ayows his hate his detesation of the growth of bis
own country particularly if that growth be the re-
suit of the wise protecting policy of our Govern
ment. This is real genuine British feeling. This
IS character that could not Withstand the tempta-
ton of British gold. The only difference between
McDuflie and many others of the same party in the
North is, the Carolina Senator is bold and fearless
openly avows his sentiments regardless of conse
auences, while others among us here conceal with
in their breasts sentiments equally hostile to thei
country's interests, but have not the audacity tC
publicly declare them, nor the courage TO brave The
popular odium, which would hur them from office
and deprive them of the ioaves aud fishes, the mair
prop Of Loco Focoism.

MISS Plat i1ho tcas sared on board the
Steaiio,c. -The editor Of the American Protes-
tant who knows this young lady and her fami-
", gives the following lacts in case which
has excited great public interest -
Miss p. left Detroit on board a steamboat
for the nunnery at Georgetown, without the
knowledge "r consent of her parents. When
her ialher, Judge Plat, heard that she was
gone, he, IN company with some of the most
respectable gentlemen in Detroit, called upon
the Roman Catholic Bishop in order to make
some inquiries concerning this sudden and
mysterious disappearance Of his daughter, and
also to request OF the Bishop letter of intro
duciion TO the Superior OF the Convent in
Georgetown. Judge Plat inquired OF the
Bishop how his daughter had obtained money
to defray her expenses. The Bishop gave him
no definite nor satisfactory answer to this in
quiry. Judge Plat wished To know whether
any thing had been said on the subject Of mon
ey. The Bishop recoccted that something
had been said on the inatitiOn fee. This he said
was $1,000. Judge p. said if the Bishop
would inform him who had given that sum OF
any sum To his daughter he would Immediate
ly refund il. He very honorably declared that
painful us it was to him TO have his daughter
leave under such circumstances, vet he prefer
red 10 delray all the expenses himself But he
did not learn whence came the 81, 500 in gold
that was last in the river, nor whence came the
trunk of Nuns clothing for his daughter that
was put on board the steamboat at Detroit.
Miss p. had letters of introduction from the
Bishop and Nuns Of Detroit, to the ATchbsh-
op OF the Roman Catholic Church in the
United States, and also 10 the Superior of the
Convent in Georgetown. Those who have
read these letters have told us that they speak
of Miss P. as belonging to highly respectable
family, MS going to the Convent without the
consent of her parents, and that when it shall
be known, it will produce some sensation oil
stir in the community. Such is a brief state
ment OF iacts, which we have received from
those who know.
