myself for the vacant post, and that the comlni'-
to- rave to that nomination their concurrence
Yonr letter also informs me that the committee
were aware that the state of my health would not
permit me to engage in the canvass
Under such circumstances have only 10 reply
that my whole political life has been devoted 10 the
democratic cause, and the maintenance OF those
principles in which originated the party OF strlct
construction and faithful adherence to the constl-

now than in the day of their triumph.
AS soon as my health will enable me, will
prepare an address to the people, in answer to this
nomination, my acceptance of which has been ia
ken for granted. At present, can only return

to the democracy of the State, for the confidence
they have thus manifested in my willingness te

Southern ParlOr Magazine,

We have received three numbers of a very neatly
got up Monthly, under the above heading. 1t is prn
ted by Strickland and Benjamin, Mobile Ala and re-
lects considerable credit upon them as neat and ele
CANT craftsmen. The editorial department is under
the direction of the Rev. ]. D. REAGAN gentleman of
great energy and industry. The numbers before us
are filled with original matter, and we notice among
the contributors, the of some of the most emf
nent writers of the South. The Magazine is South
ern in sentiment and deserves liberal patronage The

sire excellent literary and moral monthly, we re-
commend the Parlor Magazine to them.

in the city of New York by former resident of this
place to citizen of this city The letter was written
after the of the election in this State had
been received in N York. and it gives the current i'm

the construction placed upon it by Northern men, 1t

very likely to return home disunionist we fear But
read the extract below.
az think the success of the Union Party creates
an unfavourable impression against the interest of
the South The Union party South, is looked up
here. as being perfectly satisfied aciM ~hat is
knoacn the Compromise, and as willing to stand
almost any aggression before they would be for
dissolving the Union; and the mere fact of the
success of the Union party will induce the free
sellers and Abolitionists to increase their aggres-
sions against Southern Institutions. / notice that
Winthrop has been nominated by the Wing Con-
yention for Governor The free sellers are no
doubt in the majority in the Northern States, and
the only safety have, is to take decided stand
and before submitting to the least aggression let
this Confederscy be split into atoms.

CLOSING UP.-The late resolutions Of the VII.
State conventions of Pennsylvania, Ohio and w.
mont and the plan of union recently agreed ur,
between the abolition wings and silver greys !,
Albany, all look steadily to the same end-tis,i
10 say. to a reconciliation, and absorption, Of d,

case, of the wing party OF the States designatet
and they cover u sufficient area to control tie
whole north, and to justify the apprehension Tia,
the whig policy of the northern States in the En-
suing campaign is to be a sectional policy, that +,
candidate is TO be sectional, and that ii elected

In other terms, these movements OF the wing pa.
ty contemplate policy opposed TO the acquisidon
of any further territory in the south, TO the aduf
sion of any more slave States, and TO the Tecog
milton of slavery in any of the territories Of Ii.
Union, even should it be introduced under the tI.
isting laws; and opposed to the tariff and con.
mercial policy of the south, as contradistingurl.
ed from the projections, bountes, monopoEes and
government patronage of the strict old ironSde
wings of the north.
Suce have been our views of the movements and
tendencies of the wings in all tae northern States
in which they have taken any action in referenc,
to the presidency. Instead of healing, they ca,
have no other effect than to widen the breach BE-
tween the two sections-instead of restoring bar
mony, they can odly foment discord-instesd Q

The "Union Party" HumbuggerS considering
the Trick.

Some of the "Whig Union party" papers seen
TO be already taking alarm at the probable conss.
quences to the South, of the Union party" tn.
umph in this State; and they begin to appreheud
that the North will feel encouraged by it to com.
NIT additional aggression, the State Rights par.
ty predicted. On this subject the columbus
Democrat" of the 9Th inst, Foote Union party
paper, holds the following language:
Let not the North regard this election as th.
mere triumph over disunion, BUT LET THEM SEE IL
1T THE UNION OF THE SOUTH TO DEFEND HER con.
sTITUTIoNAL RIGHTS.
The contest here has been a contest as to the
best mode to secure United Action. All admit
that the South has been wronged, that the aggres.
sons have been by the North, that the citizens Of
the -slaveholding States have interfered with
our domestic institutions both in Congress and out:
of Congress; that Congress violated the Constitu-
ZION in the passage of the Missouri Compromise
and in other acts prohibiting the Introduction of
our slaves into the territories of the United
States''
Here is clear admission of the wrongs com.
planned of by the State Rights party and denied
by the Union party during the canvass. But now
that the latter party has been successful in the
Convention election, they begin to peep out from
under their masks and claim to be the better States
Rights men. The same paper says further:
Let the doctrine of States Rights in its purity,
oe dSserlcu, ana all true men IN the North, who
value the stability of the Union be invoked to raj
ly to its support. With the South United, and
correct principles relied upon, our hopes are for
The best, but if united, and we are disappointed in
arrestlng the inroads of federalism and abolition.
We will at least be prepared for defence and Inds
pendence"
Who would have thought, few weeks ago that
Union paper would venture so soon after the
election to talk about being prepared for defence
and independence.
Deiende against what ? Why of course
means DEFENCE against the General Government
independence" indeed What sort of bd,.
fendence does it contemplate !? Nothing less. We
presume than that which would result from Dis
union from the Northern States. If State
flights paper bad used the same language, the
U mon papers" (oh the hypocrites) would have
charged them with being Secessionis.s and Disun-
lonists
Honest well-meaning Union men" we admon.

caught IN snare, and you need not be surprised

you have followed into the Union parry" trap,
