Tactics i'm Alabama.

The quondam secession prints of Alabama
are distinguished by fertility of invention, IA
ther than by consistency or conscientiousness.
They are devout believers in the doctrine that
the end sanctiies the means, and seem to suffer
little from any apprehension of the qualms
which are supposed sometimes to trouble the
internal monitor.
Not long ago the journals in question abored
strenuously to demonstrate that no distinctive
difference existed to keep asunder Wings and
Democrats-that being agreed on all essential
points, no valid objection could be urged to their
analgamation on the Southern Rights platform
and that nothing but dishonest fondness Of
the "spoils" could interfere to hinder the de-
sired consummation. While in this vein, the
Montgomery (Ala.) .Adre,tiser said
"How long shall VIC delude ourselves with the
vain hope that the interest of our section will be
promoted by alliance with either Whiggery
Democracy Of the Northl Should We not, then,
like wise and patriotic men, build up party
among us for the Union, the honor and the rights
of the South? And what, let us ask, prevents tho
contamination of desirable object at this
time? Is there any distinctive measure of national
i
lowship and brotherhood together? We know none.
We have taken some little pains to extend our in
formation, by frequent inquiries upon the various
subjects of national policy that have heretofore
di yided the two parties in the South, and havo
been able to discover nome"
Other writers and speakers were yet more
emphatic in their Reputation of both Of the old
parties, and their choice Of the Southern Rights
4
organization as preferable to either. The Mo
bile .4ducrtiser supplies "reminiscences Of one
Of these folk-Col PHILLIPS, member for Mo-
bile in the Stale Legislature-and it may be
regarded as fair sample of the oratory most
in vogue in that latitude at the season referred to-
I'VE rccolcct well speech he made at South
| crn Rights meeting at Armory Hall some time in
May or June last. The Southern Rights candidates
for Congress and in the Legislature were being
nominated and Col Phillips, in reply to a sug-
| gcstion that the Democratic party would pre-
sent a Democratic ticket that would DO accept
able TO all Southern Rights men, made
imacd speech, in which he said, with emphasis
| that Democracy had no charms for him; that he
would vote for man for any Office that did not
como up to his standard the great question OF
Southern Rights"
Brief though the period be that has since
elapsed, it has sufliced to produce a wondrous
metamorphoss in the minds of those who thus
cast off old party allegiance. The object OF
their newborn affection proved to be ricketty
and worthless. The movement for secession,
albeit possessed OF all the " charms" in the
eyes of Colonel PmLLIPs, was found to be very
unattractive TO the great majority of his neigh
bors Its promoters discovered that they had
The republic. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1849-1853, 1851-12-31

committed gross blunder in their appreciation
Of public feeling; and they are now striving
to rectify their mistake as cleverly as they can.
Here and there they have discretion enough to
preserve a cautious silence, in the hope, per-
haps, that time will blot out remembrance Of
their folly. But in other places, and espe-
cally in Alabama, they disdain delicacy of that
and the chance of popular forgetfulness. The
Montgomery advertiser, for example, now tries
to conjure into life the Democracy which it
pronounced destitute of all distinctive fea
lures; and the aforesaid Colonel PHLLIPs, in
his place in the State Legislature, objects to
resolutions in support of the Compromise, be-
cause in his judgment they tend to "divide and
distract" the Democratic party-the very party
which but yesterday he refused to recognise in
any shape whatever. Can recklessness or in
consistency be carried further2
What renders these tactics still more dis
abide by the Compromise, and to fall back upon
old party issues, they are in reality designed
to build up battery from which the Compro-
mise may be shot at and shaken at leisure, or
as occasion may permit. The abuse directed
by the newspapers in the interest of this party
against the Democrats who are joining the
Union party, plainly shows the animus and the
object Of the whole affair. No maneuvring
can blink the fact that the whole game is being
played treacherously, and with an aim the re-
verse of honest The friends of the Compro-
mise are assured that the Democracy accept
that measure as settled, and yet they are de-
nounced as traitors for joining call for Union
convention; while the Democracy, for whose
orthodoxy these men vouch, are actually labor
ing to smother every thing calculated to commit
them to the measure they profess to accept.
The results of the game are yet to be do
veloped. in the mean time, however, we think
too highly of the intelligence and principle of
the citizens of Alabama to believe that it hiss
any prospect of success.

Later from Oregon.

The New York Commercial Advertiser his re-
ccyed the Oregon Spectator, published at Oregon
City, to November 10.
The Spectator speaks with great confidence ofthe
increasing prospects Of "ripcning and vigorous

the Territory, steamboat and mail communication
having been opened therewth; but il complains of
the lack Of easy communication between the city

HOW Lafayette was Recelved hy Congress.

In the debate upon the reception of Kossuth by
Congress, frequent allusion made TO the recep
ton OF Lafayette precedent. The National In
tegencer, referring to the accounts of this transao
ton at that time, says Lafayette was invited by
each House to a seat within its chamber the com
mttee appointed on the subject having publicly an
nounced that, " entertaining every wish to make
the reception Of General Lafayette as compliment
tary as possible, they yet found difficulties In the
way OF joint reception, and considered il better
that each House should adopt its arrangements
and its own "form in the reception Of that disin-
guished individual The general was according
ly presented to the Senate by its committee, with
this simple introduction 'TVe introduce General
Lafayette TO the Senate of the United States" and
the general, advancing to the chair, invited by
the President of the Senate to take seat prepared
for him on his right. No address was made. TIE
Senate adjourned soon after his being seated, and
then the president and members of that body paid
their individual respects to him. On the day fol-
lowing, the general introduced to the House
with similar ceremonies. On that occasion Mr.
Speaker Clay, rising from the chair, made to him
beautiful and eloquent address; to which Lafay-
cite made reply, expressing his acknowledge
ments of the continued good will of the American
people, of his delight in their progress, and his
diminished attachment to the institutions of the
country for whose freedom and independence he
had fought nearly fifty years before. The House
then adjourned, and the members led by the Speak
err, paid their personal respects to him.

Do. oIay,s Letter OF neslgna,len.

The following letter of resignation from the
Hon. HENRY CLAY, as we learn from the Lou

arose, seriously menacing the harmony and peaSl
ifnot the integrity of the Union. felt it to be MY
duty to return again to the Senate, and to contri-
butte my humble aid, by amicabe settlement OF

we were threatened. Such settlement was at

gress Of execution, and trust and hope will &C :
complish all the good that could be expected from

with much hesitation, proceeding partly from my
feeble state of health, that concluded to for
the last time to the Senate; but have no thought
of ever again taking q scat in that body after the
close OF the present session. Having come TO this
determination, consider it incumbent on Inc to

Congress-.

The Senate was not in session to-day.
In the House of Representatives there was
interesting debate on the resolution of Mr..
CARTIER for the appointment of committee
to introduce LOUIS KossUTH to the House,
sketch of which appears in the Congressional
proceedings.
1t will be perceived that the promoters of the
discussion expressly stated that their object is to
render what they deem an act of courtesy to
KossUTH, and not to commit the Government
to his views Interference in European affairs.
The debate largely involved the question of in
tervention, and the reader will search in vain
for any evidence of its approval Not single
speaker ventured to express his sanction of the
policy which the distinguished visitor seeks TO
maugurate.
An adjournment took place until to-day.

The CAss wing of the Pennsylvania Demo
cracy appear TO quail before the bold, aggres-
sive spirit of the Buchanan party. The saucy
"admonition" which the Pennsyluanian the
other day addressed to the reckless politi-
clans" whose "disgraceful corruptions" per-
illed the peace of their better brethren has not
provoked the response we anticipated. The
Philadelphia Sun, and journals Of thar ilk, en-
dure the snubbing with a resignation akin to
dependency. The SIN, in fact, quietly gives
up all hope of securing delegation from that
State favorable to General CAss's claims, con-
selling itself with lamentations upon the pusil-
luminous surrender of American Democracy to
foreign influences. 'The Americans" it re-
marks, eight under the banner of General
CAss, while the commander and chief of the
Irish division is Mr.. BUCHANAN" The Anne
rican Democrats-the CAss organ adds-"are
easily beaten at every delegate election" and
the consequence is that 'the once great. De-
mocratic party of Philadelphia county is dwind-
ling into absolute nothingness."
We wonder the PennsyIuanian or the San
ever heard of the fate of the Kilkenny cats.

officially to announce that the President Of the
French Republic had adopted great measure
Of public safety; that the Chief of the State
