GUArEMALA.-Arriyals from Guatemala bring
dePloroble accounts Of the state of that republic.
1t was not enough that it should be desolated by
civil war between the two parties of the domi-
nant race; the Indians have taken advantage ofthe
circumstance to commence ruthless and exter.
minating war against their oppressors. Many
towns have been sacked and burned, the women
violated, and young and old destroyed with brutal
ierocity. The war is much like that which has
ravaged Yucatan, but the proportion of Indians to
the Spanish population is larger, and their fast
nesses are more inaccessible.

Facts for the people.

It's a fact that a majority of the
wings in the United States Senate,
in 1913, voted for putting the Wilmot
PrOviso in the Treaty. by which we
acquired Calilorn ia and new Mexico.
II is fact that not a single whig
paper, North or South, condemned
them for that odious and damnable
vote. By their silence, they approx
ed OF the act.
1t is fact that a majority Of the
Wings In both Houses of Congress
have always voted for the Wilmot
PrOviso, and for evory other measure
calculated to injure the South on the
slave question. Notwithstanding the.
SC things, the wings ofthis state have
the IMPUDENCE-the BRAZEN
AFFRONTBRY, to speak of the
wing party as the friends Of the South.
Again we say to the people that
the wing party are traitors to the
South. Trust them not, they are YOUR

HypOCricy Of Southern
Wings.

The wing papers in the South
have Of late had much to say about
coalitions, because in some Of the
Northern States efforts are being
made 10 heal the divisions in the De-
mocractic party that have arisen OIL
the slavery quostion.-l'his is done
10 keep the people fnm thinking Of
the unholy deeds Of the wing party.
The following pointed article on this
subject, from the North Carolina
Standard" is worthy of particular at
tentiOn.
You talk about Coalitions. and
you effect TO be shocked, because the
Democrats in some Of the non.slave-
holding States are uniting once more
and voting together-you talk about
these things! Is not the mere fact
that they divided on the slavery cues
ton, proof conclusive that we have
friends among them? How could
they coalosce, if they had not sepa-
rated! And how could they sepa-
rate if they had all thought alike?
You reproach us because Barnbur-
ners and old IIunkers are uniting!
Can you point to the first whig from a
free State who ever voted against the
Wilmot Provi5o or for the Missouri
Compromis e. Have YOU, among all
your Wing brethren from Maine 10
Ohio, any man, big or little politi-
cally, who has ever taken such i
stand for the South and for the Con
stiiuton, as Messrs. Cass, Bucean-
an, Douglass, Dickinson, Burhe.
CrUswCll, and Forney, have done?
Who did YOU vote for, last fall, for
Vice President? And who is it that
aow sits cheek by iowl' with old
lack in the cabinet at Washington!
Ewing and Collamer abolitionists
notorlously-the union Of the South
en planter with the free soiler Of the
North. Have you c yer though Of that.

Wore Evidence against Gen.
Taylor.

When Gen Taylor formed his cab
met he manifested his friendship for
the South and for the feelings of
shareholders, by appointing Jacob
CollameLol Vermont 7 NJ. Gen
This man, last winter voted Tor the
following Preamble.
Whereas, the trafc now prosccu-
ted in this metropolis Of the Repub,
lie in human beings, as chattles is
contrary TO natural Justice and the
fundamental principles Of our polii.
cal system, and is notoriously a re-
proach 10 our country, throughout
Chrisiendom, and a serious hinder>
ance to the progress Of republican
liberty amongst the nations ofthe
earth"
By voting for the above, Collamer
said that every STAKEHOLDER is a dis
honest man, Gen. Taylor, by Civ
ing him a seat in his cabinet, sane
toned the odious sentiments con-
tanned in the Preamble. Are tho
wings of Mississippi pleased with
Collamer! Can they conscientious
ly praise and eulogise the Presidcn.
for placing at the head of the Post
Office Department, such a man as
Jocob Collamer! Can they. without
blushlng, ask their neighbors to vote
for CANDIDATES for Congress who, if
elected will go to Washington TO sus-
tain Gen. Taylor, in making such ap-
pointments! They cannot, if they
are reallyGriends Of the South.

in proportion; and are at the same
/ time to have their exports and their
slaves exempt from the contributions
for the public service" Such was
Mr.. Morris's view Of this part Of the
constitution, as afterwards actually
adopted.
Upon the question whether the i'm
lpartotion Of slaves should or should
mot continue TO 60 on, Mr. Rutledge
said.
The true question is, whether the
southern States shall or shall not be
parties TO the Union. If the north
lem States consult their interests, they
will not oppose the increase of slaves
which will increase the commodities
Of which they will be the carriers.
"Mr Ellsworth was for leaving the
clause as it stands let every State
import what it pleases. The moral
ity or wisdom Of slavery are consid-
erauons belongig to the States them
selves. What enriches a part enrich
es the whole, and the States are the
best Judges of their peculiar interest.
The old confederation had not med
died with this point, and he did not
see any greater necessity for bringing
1t within the policy Of the new one.
Mr. Pinckney. South Carolina can
never receive the plan if il prohibits
the slave trade. In every proposed
Extension Of the powers of Congress,
that State has expressly and watch.
fully excepted that Of meddling with
the importation Of negroes.
Mr.. Sherman was for leaving The
clause as it stands. He disapproved
ofthe slave trade: yet, as the States
were now possessed of the right to
import slaves, as the public good did
not require it TO be taken from them,
and as il was expedient 10 have us
few objections as possible to the
proposed scheme Of government, he
thought it best to 'lcave the matter
as we find it, &c.
Gen Pinckney declared it 10 be
his firm opinion, that if himself and
his colleagues were to sign the con
stitution, and use their personal in.
fuence, it would be ofno avail toward
obtaining the assent of their constit
uents. South Carolina and Georgia
cannot do without slaves"
Mr.. Sherman said, 'ltwas better to
let the southern States import slaves
than to part with them, if they made |
1t a sine qua ROH.'
And SO the right to import slaves
from the coas: Of Africa was retained
by the States respectfully until the
year 1905, and Congress was not
bound by the constitution even then
to prohibit it.

The Institution Of slavery.

The following extract in favor of
slavery is from an Grafton bv Owen
Van Nacter, at Oakland College, Mis-.
in April last.
The institution Of slavery. then
however reviled by ignorant and I'M
prinCipled-is a social and political
blessing, and rests, for Its mortality,
on the highest authority. Its com
mencement was announced bv an or.
acle Of the Most High in the prophet
ic sentence against the mflial liam:
Cursed Hama servant Of the SCI
wants shall he be unto his brethren
And its continuance is loretold in The
vision Of ST. John, when, through the
vista Of coming centuries, he saw
the end Of the world, and bchcld
