Alessrs, Summers and johnson.


The interesting sketch from the Abingdon ViF-
gilman of The speech delivered by Mr.. Summers
at that place will claim the attention of the reas
der. 1t will be Observed he denied fatty the
charge that he supported the Bankrupt law, and
avowed sentiments on the subject Of slavery that
utterly dispel the charge of his unsoundness.-
The Wytheville Republican gives prejudiced
account of Mr.. Summers effort there on the 3Oth
ut. In a maudlin account of the speech the edl-
tor gives the substance of what Mr. Summers
said about slavery as follows:
M-. Summers explained his present position on the
abolition question. de contrasted present clfcum-
stances with the past events OF 1892, when he made
his speech Oh abolition He utterly dlsclHmed ;lu-
gle sentiment in common with the abotionsts--and
declared that he would stand with the South lose hi;
last limb and drain his last drop of blood in resist
ance to the foul fanaticism that has well nigh
crushed our glorious Union"
Pretty strong language, all must allow. The
Republican says Mr.. Summers was to speak al
Newbern. Pulaski on the 31st ut, and at Chris
tansburg, Montgomery, on the lst instant. We
hope it will consist with his arrangements TO be
in Richmond on the 18th
AS to Col. Johnson, we hear little OF his move
ments, except that the Enquirer says he will pro-
baby follow in the wake of Mr.. Summers. 1t is
not likely that he will attempt to meet him.

IMPORTANT FROM THE RIO GRANDE.
Attack upon Matamoras by the ReyoIrstionists.-Ea-
caeHseH on the frontier.
BY the arrival this morning of the schooner Major
Barbour, Capt Arnet, from the Rio Grande we have
important Intelligence from the theatre of war on the
Mexican frontier up to Friday last.
We have papers by this arrival and the informa-
ton which we have received Is somewhat income
rent, though interesting. 1t appears that the revolu-
tlonary forces under Carvaja had attacked Matamo-
rds aad after desperate fight succeeded in entering
the city; but having learned that A small American
steamer plying on the Rio Grande, was coming up
with Mexican troops, body OF the revolutionIsts,
the main force and proceeded to attack her with the
Intention of capturing the Mexcans and sezlng two
pieces OF artillery which were on board.
The commander OF the steamer having obtained In
formation OF this movement, immed Iately put about
and proceeding 10 the BraZos placed the troops and
two pieces of artillery on board the Mexican war
steamer Neptune. There they remained when Capt.
Arnet LETT the Brazos II was thought that the troops
were an8lous to JON the reyolulonlsts.
The diversion OF the Texans from Ca1aval, caused
suspension OF the attack upon Matamoras But the
revolutionary leader was hourly expecting reinforce
ments from the direction of Camargo, and when re-
Joined by the two hundred Texans, the attack was to
be resumed with vgor. There can be little doubt
that Matamoras fell into the hands of Carvaja on Fri
day or Saturday last.
From verbal reports, we learn that many of the
United States troops on the upper line have deserted
and Joined Carjaval. We also hear that despatches
have been received here for more troops.
In the first attack upon Matamoras, is stated that
H oIceS loSt only three men In killed,
but the mortality on the side OF the Mexlcans " as
much greater. We have particulars as to the num-
Der OF troops under Cen Avaos, but his men are SAID
TO have fought with great bravery
When Capt. Arnet lett the l5razos, the Neptune was
ready coaled. and it was supposed would make for
port some l50 miles SOUTH The commander OF the
Mexicans asked permission to march through the
United States territory, in order reach Matamoras
but this was refused the appearance of the Texans
probably prevented HIM from going upon the Mexican
side.
Our next news from the Rio Grande, which will be
brought by the steamer Fanny or brig Brownsville,
We look for with great interest The Fanny will pro-
baby arrive by Sunday or Monday

pares-on the one side, Foote Cass Dickinson and
Others and on the other, Clay, Webster Fillmore and
others. Inc compromise must be carried out.
We have thus given hasty and very imperfect
sketch of the leading topics Of Mr. Summers speech
without pretending to have done him any thing like
justice. We might enlarge, and tell how he denied
that Congress had the right TO interfere with slavery
the States how he deprecated the mischiefs arts
ing from aboiuonism, &c, &c, but we have already
occupied so much space, that must desist at pre-
sent. But we cannot conclude without referring to
his denial OF the charge, that he had been beaten by
Col. johnson. 1t had been asserted by some of Col
Johnsons friends, that he had been the hero of TWEEN
ty-odd pitched battles. and that Mr.. Summers was
one of his vanquished enemies. MIR. Summers denied
this and said they for the first time oppos-
ing candidates. He too could say, as had been said
of his competitor that he had never been heateu-
He had served three sessions in Congress, two in the
Legislature, and in the late Convention to all of
which he had been elected, when opposed, by hand
some maontIes, but sometimes he had been elected
without opposition; and, he remarked, ii was a great
source of pleasure him. that he had always eceiv-
ed liberal Democratic support.
