tw-The Mobile Herald d. Tribune says !:

Gen. Foote Is now on the stump In Mlssis-

Jackson, which was replied to by G. E. Hooker
The Mississippian says that Fcote got the worst
of the debate-a fact we can very readily be-
lieye, for few Of the anti-Southern rights men
have yet had the termerity to debate before the
people the compromise measures OF the last
Congress.
Gen. Foote was very fierce against the "South.

use who, with Toombs, Clemens and others, was
so closely identified with those traitors" just
before the omnibus" was constructed.

aTHE SOUTHERN RIGHTS PARTY Dissolved
This IL the caption Of an article which APP
peared in the Savannah Republican some few
DAYS ago.
The re sons given by II for saying that the
Southern rights party IL dissolved, are that some
meetings which havs been held, were styled
Democratic and that some Southern rights C,en
are opposed to calling the Southern rights party
the Democratic party.
| These are great reasons, to be sure, for say
| ing that the party is dissolved. Itis immaterial
what the county meetings are called. In some
instances they NAV be styled Democratic, and in
/ Others Southern rights No friend cf Southern
rights will be driven from his position on that
account He will wait for the convention to
| lay down its platform and decide upon name
| for the great party Of Southern defence. Indi.
vidually, we prefer tina. the meetings should be
| called Southern rights meetings. That would.
in our opinion, be more judicious than to call
them by Democrats meetings. We have, here
tofore, expressed our views on this subject
| The submissionists have taken the name Of
Constitutional Union Party, to avoid any con-
flict Of feeling growing out Of old party names.
Southern rights men should also take name
which will he agreeable to all, whether Demo
Gratis or Wings, But thisi matter which can
be easily settle by the convention. We will
throw out one or two hints and close upon this
subject.
All Southern rights Wings are opposed to
an organization upon old party platforms.
Thousands Of Democrats are equally opposed
TO IL. These constitute the Southern rights
party proper. There are others who would pre-
| fer. no doubt, to organize upon the old Demo-
cratic platform. This class of Southern rights
men are in the minority in the State, unless we
are greatly mistaken. The Southern rights
Wings and Democrats who are willing 10 stand
or fall by the Southern rights banner, will out
number them. This will be seen at the con-
vention. Good policy then, will unite them all
under name appropriate to the occasion and
the great objects in view.
Let the country meetings take such names as
| they please. II would be far preferable for them
| to take the name Of Southern rights meetings,
but, as before stated, let the names Of the meet
| ings be what they NAV, we feel confident that
union and harmony will be effected by the con-
vention. That body will show whether the
/ Southern rights party is dissolved or not.

barisnsf If Egypt was civilized and therefore
powerful for several centuries why did she not
colonize and conquer, aud scatterber monuments
and pyramids at least all round the Meditera-
mean! Mr.. GLIDDoE's beautiful Panorama Of
the Nile, unfolds to us no less than eight suc-
cessiye races and six conquests, the Pharaonic,
Persian, Ptolemic Roman, Saracenic Mamlouk
and Ottoman. The whole of these have, it is
admitted, succeeded each other in twenty-five
hundred years Yet, Mr. GLIDDoN supposes
that Egypt was almost stationary before that,
for over three thousand years conquering but
cssce--conquered but once. II is impossible in
ti'a mutability Of human affairs, it is incompat-
bic with the laws Of human progress and de-
cline.
The Books Of Moses must have been written,
even according to the most hostile critics, at an
age when but little of the world could have been
geographically known to the author. This con.
tinent was undiscovered. and, in fact, but small
portion of the whole earth had been explored
beyond the mere margin Of the Mediterranean
sea- Yet that writer sublimely describes the
creation, and an order Of events, which all sub
sequent knoYladgq has but served to confirm.
There are nosysfsiges Of civilization, or Of. hu-

older date, It could scarcely have happened but
that some portion of the people in its vast ex-
tent would have left some evidence of their ex-
isience to prove il.
Whilst however, we do not agree with Mr..
GLIDDos, and his school, in their claim of super
scriptural antiquity for Egypt, we are not the
less delighted and instructed at the Past colec
