One of the best and most appropriate
speeches which has been made during
the session Of the convention was deli-
vered on Tuesday, by the Hon.. Will
loughby Newton, of Va. MI. Newton
disapproves the compromise plan ofthe
Senate committee. and advocates the
Missouri compromise line, He said
that, in his county, in Virginia, both par
ties were agreed that until the slavery
question is settled, all political di~freren-
e ought to be forgotten, and that he
was willing to- bury his Whtggery until
the rights Of the South were secured.
His speech was very well received
MI. Newton is undoubtedly right in
saying that the South, III united, can Sc
cure a favorable adjustment ofthe ques.
lions OF issue between herand the north.
and that the greater danger to the
South lies in divisions at home.

AFFLEcK's PLANTATION AcooUNTs.-The
agent of Messrs. Weld & Co, of New Or
leans, has submitted to our examination a
work, by Thos. Afleck, of Washington,
Miss, for which he is soliciting subscribers.
It furnishes to the planter a book printed
upon writing paper, with a great variety Of
heads and blanks, and forms a full and
complete book of accounts for plantation
use. 1t occurred to us, from a cursory ex-
animation, that the book supplied an impor-
tant desideratum to the planter and farmer
OF the South. And it also occurred to us
that no planter could judiciously, Systematic
cally and pro6tably conduct his business
without having aud using some such work
as this, either devised by himself or pre-
pared to his hand. The work also furnish
es a good medium for bringing advertise.

is 50 50,S So 90, and IS so, according to
the size of the work.-Mo5le Register.

REMiNGToN's BRIDGE.-The bridge
which MI. Remington has been build
ing in this city, and which has excited
much curiosity and speculation was
completed on Saturday and the scat
folding knocked away, under the direc-
ton Of Mr.. Remington, in the presence
of a large c%oncourse of people, and
among them many doubling Thomases.
The result was most triumphant for the
inventor. -
The beautiful structure, apparently
too fragile to sustain its own weight.
proved all that has been claimed for
il, It was immediately put to the Sc
verest test. Hundreds ofpeople passed
over it, and it was conceded by the
most sceptical that it would stand and
answer all practical purposes. The
bridge, which at a little distance resem-
bles a slight ribbon or shaving of wood
extended overa ravine beneath, four or
five hundred feet in length, though look
ing as fit would not bear the pressure
of q bird, is found to endure immense
weight. in fact, it appears, all that'can
conveniently be placed upon it. 1t is
without hand rails, 436 feet span, 10
feet wide. The planks, which are at
the abutments about six inches thick,
fine away at each end towards the cen,
tire, to about one inch or an inch and a
half, and are firmly Joined by an i'm
pervions cement, the invention of Mr..
Remington, The principle is regarded
as eminently successful, and in all sec
tons where lumber is a matter of mo-
ment, must prove Of .incalculable value.

THE Rlonr SENTIMENTS. Some time
since a letter fom the editor Of the Mobile
Register Gen:Bradford) was Published in
some one Of the Washington papers, by
which il would appear that he was in favor
Of the compromise of the Committee Of
Thirteen. The last Register contained an
explanation which completely overturned
all such conclusions, and the editor o
cludes with the following Just and admi
rable remarks :!
ave regard that Union with a reverence
that is not to be measured by mere words
With us, it is a pride and a principle. 1t &
hallowed by glorious recollections uf the
past, aud sanctifed by hopes of the magn-
ficent future; but our contemporary must
not cease to recollect it is tie Union uhl0t
our EltherS established that calls forth this
enthusiasm it is tie Union of ,chlch the
Constitution IS tie bntd. We know no
other Uhion-we desire to know ne other,
and we are content that our attachment 10
il shall be measured by the hrmness with
which we may resist every encroacffment
upon the sacred bond that has hitherto
made lis a United, a prosperous and a happy
people. It was in this spirit that in 1881,
'32 and '33 we battled for the constitution
and in the same spirit and with the same
object are we laboring now. With a view
to ward off the assaults of wicked and de-
signing met upon the great charter OF oui
cohfederated rights we advocated the Nash
vile Convention. The resolutions unani'
mously adopted by that body will be seen
ii our columns this morning, and we ask
our opponents to scan them carefully. We
ask our neighbor of the Advertiser to pom
der over them, and then say, if he can, that
they are not n triumphant vindication
against the aspersiots cast upon the mo-
tives Of those who were Instrumental in
calling together that patriotic assemblage.
Disunion? Every step tending i'll that di'
rection is made by a Northern foot. Every
movement tainted with such an object has
It's origin in free soil abolitionism. The
South, long suffering and slandered as sht
is, asks nothing and wishes nothing in the
shape Of favor. She relies content upor

from that position she will neither be coax

been claimed as the exclusive p%reTogatiTe OF

advanced that some spirited maiden lady arr

the throne of Cupid's dominion one year in
the four, which right she still claims, but sell
dom exercises-a sorry compliment to the
sterner sex.
Could a perfect account be given of the
various modes of making this soul-animatlng
declaration, of its acceptance or refusal among
different nations and at different times, itwould
furnish one of the most curious and entertain
