tion Pass your endorsement resolution aud vel
come, If you can contrve one suitable and ex.
pedent. Enough, perhaps, on this branch OF
the subject.
In reference to the selection Of candidates.
we will content ourselves with briefly repeating
what principles, we believe, it is due to the
South, and expedient for the Democracy to FOL
low in such selection:
Their candidate should be guaranteed, mol
merely by any present position adopted from
the expedieucy Of the moment, but by political
antecedents, such as to render unsupported the
orthodoxy of his Republican faith and practice
and the sincerity of his respect for the rights OF
the States and the equality of all portions OF
the confederacy. Fortunately, there are many
of those already named for the consideration OF
the convention who come up to this standard
but on the other hand, there are some, not the
least prominent, who fall far short of it. The
nomination of one of this class must vltate al
the South the effect of any professions, aud
any platform.
We have thus frankly and fairly defined the
true position of parties, and our own Les'
than we have demanded Of the convention or
behalf of the Southern Rights party, they can
not consent to accept-more it would not b.
magnanmous in them, at this exigency, Il
claim But that convention must beware how
it trifles with either the principles, the feelings
or even what some may deem the prejudces o
party, holding in its hands the success or de
feat of the candidate 'Forewarned they shoulc
be forearmed-if not, they must take the con
sequences of their own arrogance or folly

A Commentary on the "Finaiity" PrOpo
alton.


Strange as it may seem, the first serious and
practical movement towards modification oil
the Fugitive Slave law, comes from Southern
State. Maryland will probably demand it, as
the annexed statement from yesterdays Sun
will show.
Could more conclusive argument be given
in confirmation of the correctness of our views
in relation to this cry OF finaity in legislation
"PRoPosED AMENDMENT OF THE FUGITIVE
SLAVE LAw-Mr. Ligget, chairman of the Be.
lect committee appointed by the Maryland
house Of delegates, to consider so much of the
governors message relates to the murder of
Edward Gorsuch, and the trial of the treason
cases in Philadelphia, has made an interesting
report, accompanied by resolutions instructing
our senators and requesting our representatives
in Congress to urge an amendment of the fug
tive slave law, so as to enforce, by adequate
penalties, the attendance and aid Of the posse
comitatus' when required by the officer charged
with the execution ofthe law. tits also recon
mended that the State of Pennsylvania, in order
to further the ends ofjuslce, and alay all rri-
tation and excitement between the citizens of
MARYLAND and that State, should pass a law pro
viding for the transfer by writ Of error of all
cases arising within her limits. which involve
the operation or construction Of the I'd section
of the 4th article of the Constitution of the
United States, or of the acts Of Congress passed
in pursuance thereof, to the supreme judicial tri-
bunals of the country for trial."

party.

right, or show of right, persons claiming TO repre-
sent Union Democratic party in Georgia, can
be admitted as delegates at Baltimore!

We learn that plan is In contemplation, by
which the vote of Georgia will BE- eyaded-by
the admission Of two sets of gatss-State
Rights and Union-with an understanding that
they will pair of." If the former consent Ia
such an rrangement--representn us they do,
three iourths of the Democracy of the State
they are more accommodating and flexible than
we suppose them TO be:
GEN CAss 1t is believed by many, that
Gen. Cass will be the nominee of the Baltimore
convention No l. We do not see, however,
where the friends OF the Senator from Michi
gan derive their data in making their calcula-
TONS The South will not touch him-the
middle States are divided against him, and the
West is in the same category.
II is due the Democracy of Georgia, and but
Justice to ourselves to state what We candidly
believe to be their and our feelings towards Gen.
Cas-. He is by means their nor our choice.
His construction of the Nicholson letter, his
Intervention policy, and his internal Improvement
notions, are so many serious objections, which
the Democ racy of Georgia entertain in respect
to him. He, of all the prominent names of dis
tinpushed Democrats now before the country
for The nomination to the Presidency, is least
acceptable TO the South The vote of this sec
| ton of the Union will be east cheerfulIy for
Buchanan, Douglas, Marcy, Dickinson, or any
reliable Northern Democrat; but il it is given
to Cass, it will be because devotion to prnci
pies is paramount in the minds of Southern men
| to other obstacles less formidable. Betw cen
| Gen Cass and Gen. Scott Southern Democrats
will support the former--many, however, viii III
this event support neither. 1t is but Just and
| right that the Baltimore convention should
thoroughly understand the feelings of the
Southern Democracy towards Gen. Cass; and
| it is the duty Of the convention, before making
a nomination, to ponder well this relation. Gen.
Cass has been once honored by the Democratic
party with the nomination, and was defeated
He was warmly supported by Southern Demo
Gratis, whose zeal was unbounded. His defeat
entaed disaster upon the party and the country,
never before so afflictingly felt. The marks of
that defeat will lnger on the party and the
country as long rs they exist

Alabama and Gen. Cass.


We publish, from our correspondence, two
out of several testimonials of the public senti-
ment in Alabama, in relation to Gen. CAss.
The source from which each comes entities it
to the highest consideration:
Messrs. Editors: The South is much indebted
to you, for yours is the only paper through
which we get facts which the South ought to
know, and which many wish to keep in the
dark.
There are so many evidences of corruption
going out from Washington that, if there is not
a reck oning ahead for many members OF Con-
gress, then I am bad Judge of the American
character 1t seems that the order of the day
is the spos; ana the man or paper, to get his
or its share must become a tool. Keep aloof,
gentlemen, we need sentnel--let the Union
and Republic divide the spoils They will not
be the gamers in the end. 1t is evident that
there is more affinity between the Union and
| Republic than between the Union and the 5 ate
Rights Democrats. The Union and its alleys
may suppose they can induce US to take the
choice candidate of Messrs. Foote, Cobb, and
Clemens, for President, (Gen. Cass , but,
| Messrs Editors, these men do not occupy the
right ground in the South, therefore, it tor no
| other cause, we suspect their man. Why, sirs,
we would vote for the verest Wing in the land
before this class of politicians; they are de.
suffers they have lett US and gone over to the
enemy, when we should have had their aid.
Their candidate will not do us for other rea-
sons--his action has been most detrimental to
Sout' ern interests, and we cannot vote for him.
| Now, we will look upon the nomination of
| Cass as the Foote, Cobb, Clemens, ard Union
cand date, and would be most unfortunate.
Mr.. Buchanan, Dallas, Marcy, or Douglass,
would do infinitely better-both parties could
| then unite.
am much surprised to hear that some one or
two decided State Rights, or Southern Rights
men at " ashington, are favorable to Mr.. Cass.
The only way to account for that, is upon the
suppositon that their Intervention principles rs
to foreign rolicy being the same, preponderate,
as being one of the most important elements
! Of the coming canvass The South cannot
look with favor upon these agrarian sentiments.
| This is no time to try new experiments in our
government, when she ia scarcely able to navi-
gate the seas with the discordant elements of
| her own being.
MOBILE May 10, 1852.
Gentlemen am truly sorry could not be
at the convention. fell great interest in the
defeat of Cass; for his nomination will discom
fort us and is likely If he be nominated, zoe toi
run third candidate. The Wings will give us
a man of no better Southern sentiment than
Cass, and we cannot go for him.
Yours truly.

WONDERFUL DIscovERY-Th Fairmont(Va.)
True Vwyinian says:-We are informed by
Col. Raymond and Others, that portion of re-
gnlarly McAdamized road has been discovered
on the opposite side OF the river from this place.
We have not seen il ourselves, but learn that it
extends pretty much along the bank Of the river.
Its width is about l6 feet, and the track we'll
graded. The bed of stone seems to be about
two inches thick and made precisely after tho
plan of our McAdamized roads, the stone being
broken to about the same size as that used for
our roads. The discovery was made by the
washing away of hill side which partially
covered the road. When, and by what race Of
people this road was made, is unknown at the
present day, but it gives evidence of the sxis-
tence ola population here at some former age of
the world, as far advanced in civilization, or vt
least in the art Of road making, as ourselves.
There was found in the bed Of the road the
stump of a chestnut tree, which was ascertained
to be $50 years old at the least, and how much
older, ourinformant could not tell, as the stump
was hollow.

GEN. CAss.-Opn,on Of a Mobile Democrat
In the Montgomery Advertiser, we find the fol.
lowing communication. which shows a decided
hostility to Gen Cass, by a portion Of the Demo-
crazy of Mobile.
The Observation-Disclosures Editors: very
much fear that the 8 Ie of the press, and the
action by the people in primary meetings
in the South, will create wrong impression as
to Gen. Cass, and may prove fatal to the Demo-
cracy. 1t ia useless to disguise it, we cannot
unite in the South on Gen Cass neither do |
believe he can be elected. have taken some
pains, recently, to enquire Of many leading
Democrats, in the country and city, and from
the result together with my own views, have
come deliberately to the above conclusion.
The Democracy of the South, or decided
majority of it, took strong grounds against the
compromise measures, and whilst they may
abide them, will never approve them, nor vote
for the man who hnh aided in inhicting wrongs
Of such magnitude upon us; this, Gen Cass has
DONE by voting for every offensive measure. II
Gen Cass Is nominated, it will divide us and
lose for us many Of Or most able and jealous
supporters and speakers.
If Mr.. Buchanan be the nominee, we will give
one enthusiastic demonstration, which will quite
dscomiit the opposing party.

kossUTHs FAMILY following is from
the Vienna correspondence Of the London
Times:
at having been found impossible to establish
case against Madame Meszenyi and Ruttkay,
they have been liberated, and are now residing
in the HotelNational, in the Leopoldstadt. The
Austrian government has at length come to the
conclusion that nothing is to be gained by de-
tanning Kossuth's relations here, and according.
ly the whole tamily--some II persons, believe
will be permitted to quit the country on the
LIST of May A. people here can never do any
thing with good grace, difficulties have been
raised about the servants who were willing to
go with the emigrants. The authorities insist
on the Kossu,h family emigrating alone, which
in my opinion is most unreasonable, as there are
four females and eleven children of the party
Justice requires that should state that Kos
suth's sisters were kindly treated during their
Imprisonment, and that their mothe.'s letters to
them were duly delivered after having been
read by the authorities to whose safe Keeping
they were entrusted. The old lady ndmonished
her children to take courage aud to remain firm,
as the sun must rise at last, be the night ever
so dark and long, AS Madame Kossuth and
her family will not be permitted to come here,
they will meet with Mesdames Meszlenyi aud
Rutikay somewhere on the road to Bodenbach."
