II is alleged by their advocates that the late
factory and final adjustment of the slavery ques-
tion. They cannot become so otherwise than by
uniting and consolidating the South in support
Of their rights, and by harmonizing the conflict
ing sectional interests which have arrayed the
North against the South.
The result of the late elections proves that the
South are attached to the Union, and wish to
harmonize with the North To reconcile CON
ficting opinions, and secure concert and una
nimity, there must be mutual confidence and
goodwill. This is impossible, unless the sections
deal fairly and justly towards each other. The
true end Of government is to protect persons and
property. In the South slaves are property, and
the South demand the peaceable and quiet pos
session Of such property. Their right to hold
slaves as property is denied by the Abolitionists
Of the North, who, that they may more efficiently
control public opinion in that section, have or
ganized themselves into religious and political
combinations. They act through the press the
pulpit, and the ballot-box. Such an organization
in one section makes it indispensable that there
should be counter organization in the other ;
because, if not resisted by such counter organiza
ton, the inevitable consequence would be that
the Northern organization would absorb and
control the entire public sentiment, social, moral
religious, and political, Of that section. The
purpose Of the Northern organization is to assail
the rights and interests Of the South: the pur-
pose Of the Southern organization should be to
protect the interests thus assailed.
Late events prove that the North are SO deeply
interested in preserving their present political and
commercial relations. to the South that o power
full, influential, and controlling party can be raj
lied in that section, who will unite with the South

Important Discovery.

We have learned from undeniabe authority
that discovery has recently been made in
the southern part Of Rock Island county which
is destined to prove of important benefit to this
section. 1t is none other than a marble quarry.
The quarry is now the property.we understand.
Of Messrs. Browning and Bushnell OF Quincy,
and preparations will soon be made for com
mencing operation on the premises. From
specimens Of this marble which have been pla
ced in the hands of wdrkmen, it has been aser-
tanned that it is Of finer texture than any
hitherto found in America. With many spe-
cilnens Of Italian marble it also compares very
favorably-being pronounced superior; and is
capable of receiving polish almost equal to
Egyptian marble.
This will certainly prove very valuable
discovery for the Mississippi Valley. as it will
preclude the necessity Of imparting from Ver-
mont or the. Potomac. and supply the want, too
with a better kind of marble.
Of what has already been opened. marble oi
various colors are found to exist in this quarry
| The predominant co,ors is of rich creamy
hue: but there is also pure white aud clouded
with blue.
The quarry is situated some six miles from
the eriver--oquawKa Spectator.

why we SUPPORT General Pierce.

We do not advocate the election of General
Pierce on the ground Of his military servcesor
his military character. Such an argument is
unworthy to be addressed to the intelligence
and understanding Of the American people 1t
is not because he fought in Mexico. aud gal
lan,ly and faithfully discharged his duty. that
he should be elevated to the highest Office in
the gift Of the people. But when opponents
are constantly harping upon the military career
and services Of General Scott-harping upon a
single string with all the skill Of Paganini,
because, forsooih, they have no other to play
upon--it is not improper to recall the fact that
| General Scott was not "alone IN his glory" in
Mexico; and that il these services constitute
ground Of political prcferment, othc RS are en-
titled to share it.
But we support General Pierce and advocate
his elevation, btcausc drring the whole course
of his life. he has proved himselftrue and faith
full to the Constitution, to the Union. and to
the Democratic causc--bccause he has given
evidence of possessing the intellect 10 comprc.
hend the ability to carry out, and the frmness
to maintain Democratic iples-because
he is the exponent of principle and not the
representative Of clique or the head of a fac
tion-bccause he is the chosen standard -bcare
of the Democracy--bccause his whole cours,
Of life has proved him n statesman withou
guile. above the arts Of chicaneiy and intrigu
frank and open as the day--of pure purpos
and elevated patriotisu,--and finally becaus
he is an homes: man, e,'n,ing up to the Jcffe
> sonian requisition for office. 'honest. capable
and faithful to the Constitution
These are the reasons why We advocate th
election Of General Pierce to the Presidency
And we are willing to submit their suflicienc
to the verdict aud Judgment Of the American
people The Recruit.
