Mr. CabeIl's Letter upon Florida.

A letter has recently been published by the
Hon. E. G. CABELL, respecting Florida and hei
resources, of character that deserves notice
1t has been sent with the Republic to most Of
our Southern subscribers in the form OF an eX
ira. its great length precluding its publication
entire in our regular columns. 1t is addressed
to |. d. ANDRE VS., esq, United States Consul
at ST. Johns, New Brunswick&who solicited
the information it contains to aid him in COM
pilng report to the Treasury of the United
States, under a resolution of the United States
Senate, which duty was assigned to Mr.. AN
DREws by Mr.. CoRwIN. Mr.. CABELL, in
his letter, adverts to the history of Florida
anterior to and since the cession of 1919, and
states many facts of an interesting and i'm
portant character. 1t appears the sea and
gulf coast of Florida comprises one-thlrd Of the
coast of the United States on this side of the
continent; and Florida is watered by upwards
of thirty rivers emptying into the Gulf and At
lantic. 1t is the fifth State in size in the
Union; and by letter from Mr.. KENNEDY, of
the Census Bureau, addressed to Mr.. CABELL,
it seems she is next to Vermont, Iowa and
Wisconsin on the score of health. Her pro-
ducts exceed, in proportion to her population,
those Of any other State in value, and also in
proportion to the land in cultivation. The
letter of Mr.. Cabell is a valuable essay, and
calculated to be of great service to his State.
He states the various internal Improvements
and improvement of rivers and harbors needed
in his State, and urges the claims of the State
to notice very cOgenty.

Our Candidate for the Vice Presidency
From the alexandria Gazette.


The Wings in the present contest have had lit
tie to cay about their candidate for Vice Pres-
dent; one reason of which is, that 30 far he has
escaped from improper censure or reckless abuse
at the hands of his political opponents. 1t is due
to him, however, to say that his name and char
acter Justly add strength to the Wing ticket, and
increase it's claims to the support and confidence
Of the American people.
Mr.. G raham is one OF the most estma bic citizens
Of his State. He ia a man of sound judgment,
practical good sense, experience in public life,
liberal in his sentiments, irreproachable in his
character correct in his department, and, whils'
firm and consistent in his political principles, des-
titute Of any thing like intolerance.
Providence, on two occasions, has removed from
his high Office the President Of the United States
and left the duties of the Chief Ma gisrate to be
ecuted by the Vice President. We and know
therefore, the necessity Of electing the second
officer of the Government one in whom can
confdc, and who is capable of worthily supplying
the place of the President. With Mr.. Graham we
should feel secure We would have man upon
whom could rely in any emergency. HE ster
ling good qualities which have done him much
credit in every situation in which he has hitherto
been placed, would then have n field for display
and we might look for the happiest results.
We consider the nomination of Mr.. Graham nj
every way fortunate for the Wing party and fol
the country. He would make a most digniheC
and able presiding officer in the Scnate-and, We
repeat if should be his lot to occupy the chaiI
of the Chief Magistrate, would do honor to the sta
ton and to himself

Another Sign.

That General PIERCE did not achieve dis
tnc,ion in Congress we consider settled point
From such statements as the following we con-
clude that he did not satisfy southern gentle
men who had opportunities of actually observ-
ing his course while there. We quote from
the Charlotte IN. c. Wing:
1--WE learn that the Hon. Henry w. Conner, e1
member of Congress from this district, is opposed
to the election OF General Pierce, and will not sup
port him Now when il lie remembered that these
two gentlemen served most of their time togethe
in Congress, it may be regarded pretty strong
proof that the General lives a little too far North tc
suit the tastes of the honorable member, and tina
the former did not stand side by side with Calhoun
in favor OF the South"
The Mr.. CONNER referred to sat in the
Hous. of Representatives when Mr.. PIERCE
occupied place there, and was then, as he has
been since, warm Democrat. We are as
sured through private channel that the state
ment of the Charlotte Wing is correct, so fal
M il relates to Mr.. CoNNER's determination
not to vote for PIERCE.

BALTIMORE AND OHIO RAILRoAp.-We are glad
to be able to state that the work this road is ad
vancing with great rapidty. The engineer EN- q.
gagged in laying the railroad track has completed
his work on this side Of the great tunnel about one
hundred and sixty miles beyond Cumberland, and
has come on to Baltimore for the purpose Of pro-
curing locomotive, which will be conveyed to
Wheeling, and be used in the construction Of the
track from Wheeling eastward. The work on the
great tunnel is carried on with great activity, and
here is every reason to believe that it's final COM
plction by the first of January next will be fully
accomplished.
We learn that extensive firm from ST. Louis
yesterday purchased the present depot Of the com

From the Boston advertiser, September q I.
From Buenos Ayres.

The barque Buckeye, which arrived here yester-
day from Buenos Ayres, brings advices from that
port to the 7th ultimo-a week later than the latest
accounts before received. Papers to the above date
arc received at the Merchants Hall Reading Room,
of " hich we have had a hasty perusal.
The Progreso of the 9th says that satisfactory
official communications have been received from
all the provinces, giving their assent to the princi
pies which to serve the basis of the approach
ing national organization The province of Cata-
marea had at last given in its adhesion, and had
dsting uished itself for it's patriotism and conf
dence, having ratified the agreement Of San Nicho-
las in all Its parts.
On the goth of August the representatives of all
the provinces to assemble at the capital, Santa
Jecina, to form a General Constituent Congress-
The Progreso says that the Congress is the hope of
all its deliberations will be the balsam which will
heal forever the bleeding wound which tyranny
and recent events had opened in the body polite.
The Progres0 of August let contains the OFF,
cial recognition by General Urquiza as provisional
dictator, of the independence of the republic of
Paraguay, and the conclusion of a treaty Of friend
ship, commerce. and navigation, by which the free
navigation of the rivers Paraguay and Parana is
secured to the republic of La Plata and the empire
of Brazil This treaty is regarded as an event of
great importance. The independence of Paraguay
was acknowledged from the 18th Of July.
Accounts from Monevideo state that the Orien-
tai government having sent a commissioner to the
mouth Of the river La Plata. to ascertain the most
suitable place for the establishment of lighthouse
for the benefit Of vessels coming from sea- he had
returned, having designated the Island of Lobos
the point best adapted for the object
On the 9th OF July M. st. George and Sir
Charles Hotham were received by the oriental gov
eminent and presented their credentials. Sir
Charles Hotham afterwards sailed in the Vixen for
Buenos Ayres with nj. st. George, and on the 9Th
they were presented to General Urquza.
The Progreso says that it had been reported that
the Brazilian government had obtained from the
Argentine government permission for a BRAZILIAN
war steamer to enter the Parana river for the pur-
pose of transporting minister of the Emperor to
Paraguay. The report is contradicted, and it is
added that the representatives of Brazil at Buenos
Ayres, with whom the government entertained the
most cordial relations, had no motive for making
such request.

The Climax.

Senator WELLER spent an hour the other
day in proving to the Democrats of Detroit that
their principles are infinitely superior to those
of the Wings. Having accomplished this task,
he spent another hour in demonstrating that
the Wings are destitute of principles!
One omission strikes us in the speech. 1t is
that Mr.. WELLER forgot to tell his western
friends that the only principles recognised by
the Democracy In the last session of Congress
were principles stolen from the Wings. The
practices were strictly Democratic, and We
have no desire to claim identity with them.

attorney. But this, the most glowing portion of his
history is confessed by HE bographer to be the
most obscure! The very season in which he made
the granite mountains ring again Is closed to our
view, (pago 81 and we are left outside again,
with nothing but our2author's "say.so" to support
our belief! OF all the magnificent efforts we are
told he made. Mr.. Hawthorne has produced testi-
mony only to single case. Let the reader bear
in mind, that if Mr.. Pierce ran the course attri-
buted to him, it was only the other day, it were,
for il not till AZ that be left the Senate Why
have memorials been preserved Of any of those
towering Efforts? Did nobody hear them that could
appreciate them? If the "rivaPs' letter, before
noticed, be used in way it is fair to use it in
another; and he also speaks (poge 52) of the bar
of New Hampshire very illustrious one.
Did none Of these ilustrious members, his fell
Iowa at the bar. rccollect any thing of the hercu-
lean efforts OF the who stood at their head and
led them all? Yet we have only the authority
given for one single trial! We wonder Mr. Haw-
thorne does not here spin come yarn of great mem
tai progress in this great dearth of authorities.
The next two chapters are devoted TO the career
of bis subject in Mexico. Any such absurditcs as
taunts Of cowardice, &c, we abhor when applied
to Mr., now General, Pierce. But, the other
hand, VIC think the utmost Partially for his
achievements will not allow any great lustre to
his deeds. On page II his valor is spoken OF as
having been tried and " displayed brilliantly in
famous battles" General Pierce had spirit enough
and courage enough, and with proper training
might have acted brilliantly; but accident, not cow
ardicc. prevented his acting go noted part in
famous battles his natural intrepidity would
have led him on to act. We think the biographer
is too enthusiastic for his friend on this point.
We are disposed to allow to this gentleman all
that his biographer can make out for him. We
grant that he is man of fair talent We grant
he was capable Of efficient committee work; albeit
he was no orator. We grant freely he has brave
