LETTER FROM Mr.. BUCHANAN. We received a
private letter, short time since, from the Hon.
James Buchanan, from which we have taken the lib
erty of making the following extracts, which will
speak for themselves:
WHEArLAND, NEAR LANCASTER,
March 18th, 1850.
My Dear Sir Il have received your kind letter oi
the 4th instant, and assure you that feel Pc
culiar desire TO visit the faithful Democratic
county of Greene When in the West, last fall. had
determined to pass part of the winter in New Or
leans, and on my return home to pay you visit.
This purpose was defeated by the alarming aspect
which the slavery question had assumed and my con-
sequent desire to remain at home, where might be
useful. At what particular time may be with you,
it is impossible to say at present but you may rest
assured that shall embrace the first opportunity of
paying visit, which anticipate with no ordinary
pleasure.
have passed month in Washington this winter,
and there witnessed state of feeling the subject
of slavery and the Union, which no man at distance
could Justly appreciate. Had the Wilmot Proviso
become a law, or had slavery been abolished in the
District of Columbia, nothing short of special in
terposition of Divine Providence could have prevent
ed the secession of most, if not all of the slave hold
ing States Of the Union. am far from saying that
either or both of these causes would have justified
so dreadful result; but the South have been goaded
into madness by the long continued assaults of North
ern fanatics and abolitionsts. They now feel that
their personal security is in danger, and in portions
of the South many poor woman retlres to rest at
night under dreadful apprehensions of what may be-
al herself and her family before the morning. Should
this state of things continue, the Southern people
will soon begin seriously to calculate the value OF
the Union.
The danger is yet far from having altogether pass
ed away but it has been most happily avefted fol
tn. present, by the in our House of Represen-
tatives refusing to consider the Wmot Proviso Reso
Iutions of instruction, followed as it was, by the
vote IN the House Of Representatives at Washington,
laying the subject on the table. From present ap-
pearances entertain good hopes that all the dis
ractng and dangerous questions, arising out of slave
nv, which now agitate the country, may be settled
before the termination of the present session of Con-
oress. Very Respectfully,
