Mr.. EDITOR: Heretofore, whenever | have

what they professed-the friends of human

infamous Fugitive Law, and its adoption of .
Platform intended TO suppress all agitation OF
the subject Of human rights has proved itself

me for deserting my party win say, ] have
not iorsaken them, but they have left me and

The Southern Rights Party.

The Winnsboro' Is. c. Herald, with
Southern Rights" as its motto, publishes the
following announcement, which shows how lit
tie reliance ought TO be placed upon the current
Democratic statement in regard to the repent
ant attitude Of the Southern Rights party:
"Thc Anti Submission Convention Of South Caro-.
lima will assemble in Columbia on the fourth Mon.
day in April next. They were elected under
pledges TO carry out the doctrine Of resistance 70
past aggressions by secession with cooperation II
itcould be obtained within a reasonable time; with.
out it, in preference 10 submission"
And yet with such evidence Of the fact
that the seccssionist snake is but scotched, not
killed, the Union party is called upon to sur
render It's organization, and TO join an alliance
controlled in the main by men who merely want
the opportunity to strike a fatal blow at the
peace and integrity Of the country. The open,
undisguised purposes Of the Southern Rights
wing of the Secessionists is, however infinitely
preferable to the covert and uncertain tactics
Of their brethren in neighboring States.

down 60 Acapulco. From this latter point he
shipped to this plncc. lie arrived in very
delicate state Of health. At Ures he was attack cd
with typhoid fever and detained nearly three
months, which accounts for his long delay, already
beginning TO occasion lively solctude for his safe
" among his friends.
The two commissioners had gone into Sonora to
purchase provisions for the parties Of the separate
governments engaged in surveying the ella.
Owing to the great scarcity Of such commodities,
amounting almost TO destituton, they were unable
20 succeed in the object Of their visit. Finally,
after traversing the principal part Of the State

Indians, n party was fitted out by MIR Bartlett.

The Collins Steamers.

In the belief that every man is to be trusted
in his own art, we are induced to copy from the
Onion newspaper an article from the pen Of
practical and accomplished engineer, Mr.. f..
w. SMITH, discussing at some length the OBJ
jeotlons that have been urged against the New
York and Liverpool line of steamers. 1t is i'm
possible for any liberal or patriotic mind, it
seems to us, 10 regard the enterprise to which
this article relates IN an aspect merely com
merclal; and though we think that even in
this light alone the public interests would be
promoted by a substantial support of the Ameri-
can line of ocean steamers against the British,
we cannot but feel more deeply interested in it
as national undertaking.
