", for publication 1t appears in the Charleston
Mercury of the 29in ult That paper, which is the
| acknowledged leading organ of the secession fac
ton, pays compliment to it, of course, but the COM
pliment is of such character as an inquiry into the
bearing of Mr.. Rhet's subimated views upon The
best interests and dignity and Independence Of po
| sition of those whom he is addressing, will no
sanction. The Mercury characterizes it as " emf
nently practical" 1t is any thing else. 1t is
very pretty painting of structure of government
| with enough of the machinery visible on its out
| works 10 add show of strength to its creates
charm, the dazzle of novelty about it; but this de
monstration of South Cardinals wrongs and fore
| shadowng of her system Of government in the err
| of her redemption, is the best exponent of suci
| dial ambition that South Carolina politician ha
yet made, and will go farther than any secession
speech that has preceded it to impress upon tn
calm in thought and wise in counsel in that State
the reflection that '''twere better to bear the i'll
we have,'' etc. 1t would be well for the restore
ton of cain to the Union that Mr.. Rhett shout
speak and publish often, and when speaking to Ell
deavor to be "eminently practical" always.

Repeal the Fugitive Slave law, is the slogan OF
the Free-so cansin all the Northern s G States
venting the South from participating in the bene-
fits of California territory, which have been exhib-
tied in many of the Southern States, have embold-
ened them to an extent which we did not anticipate
and all our readers know how little hope we have
had of Northern forbearance.
1t is well known that the two divisions OF the
New York Democracy have united upon the terms
of the one which occupied the Buffalo platform IN
the last Presidential contest. JOHN VAN buren,,

A Literary Curiosity.

A friend has shown us a newspaper printed in
South Carolina which advocates Submission by the
South to federal aggression. This curiosity which
is called the Southern Patriot makes its appear
ance at Greenville, and advertises B F. Perry and
j. c. Elford as its editors. We take the following
extract from it, which explains very clearly how
the thing came into existence
eve return our thanks to his Excellency, Pres
ident Fillmore, for the Congressional Globe and
Appendix, for $50, in three large quarto volumes,
handsomely and substantially bound which we
received by last mail, under his frank. The books
are valuable, but the kindness and courtesy of the
giver are much more highly appreciated than the
gift"

pie favor from 'hs Excellency President Fillmore,

Foreign Publications.

Owing to the late revolutions and counter-revou-
tons among the nations of Europe which have follow
ed each other in such quick succession and of which
the end is yet, the leading periodicals of Great
Britain have become invested with degree of interest
hitherto unknown. They occupy middle ground be-
TWEEN the hasty, dsjointed and necessarily mpeecrft
records of the newspapers and the elaborate and
derous treaties be furnished by the historian at
future day Whoever reads these periodicals obtains
and connected accounts of all the important
political events of the old world, they occur and
learns the various conclusions drawn from them bv the
leading spirits of the age. The American Publishers
therefore deem it proper to call renewed attention to
the works they publish and the very low prices at
which they offered to subscribers. The following
is their list

PAPER RooFING.-Talking with one of the pro-
prietors of the Paper Mill at Columbus, Ga the
other day, he tells us that they manufacturing
and using in that city, article of paper for roof
ing which is believed to be better and cheaper for
that purpose than almost anything else.
This paper is made of the same materials as
common wrapping paper, and is a quarter of an
inch thick. It's securely nailed OF well season
ed covering of boards, and thoroughly tarred, and
while the tar is green good coating of sand sft-
ed upon it. The roof then becomes hard as
stone-entirely impervious to water-quite as
proof against fire any metallic roof, and in his
judgement, more durable than any other in use in
this country. Ofcourse, it must also be the cheap
est sort of covering.-Florida Sentinel.
