HEAR AN OLD SOLDIER!

We are permitted (says the Warrenton News,) to
make the following extracts from letter received by
gentleman In this county from friend of his, and
which we insert with pleasure, they contain some
excellent ideas on the subject Of Free Suffrage, Pc
rusal of which we recommend to our readers: - .4

.THE CONTRAST.

The Pennsylvania draws the following strong
contrast between the candidates for President
GENERAL Scorr AND GENERAL PIERCE. We ac-
cord full honor to General Scott hero but like
Gen. Taylor, who frank and fearless enough to
confess his apacity for the Pres denlia chair We
do not believe he is competent TO the duties of The
! high station to which he aspires. Gen. Taylor, we
had abundant Wing authority in I849 for saying,
superior to Scott in many respects. especially in
modesty, in prudence, and in the of those
in his command. Hence the comparison is hardly
reasonable. Nor will it be reasonable to say that
General Pierce is filter for President, by ten
character of the Democratic alike and abun-
dainty establish this fact. The two, however, fur
nish some strange for the general reader.
! We give few
Gen. Pierce has modestly RETAINED from pressing
himself for public station. Gen. Scott has never
been satisfied, but has always been crying with the
horse-leech, Give, give, give, " whether of Office
| or emolument.
Gen. Pierce has repeatedly resigned high stations,
preferrng the quiet of private life Gen. Scott has
never been satisfied, hut now holds, and doubtless
will continue to hold his position as COMMANDMENTS
Chief of the Army of the United States, even while
the Wing candidate for President-a position worth,
with the perqusites, about TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS A

| Gen. Pierce is singulary unob:.usive, well-bal-
enced, and well-disciplined statesman. Gen. Scott
is vain selfopinionated, and illyreguated public
man.
Gen. Pierce, in his whole career, has never onoe
Pandered to fanaticsm. whatever shape it assumed.
and for years past has given his confidence the
leaders OF the free soil Wings.
Tile contrast may be- and will be continued here

BRUNSWICK COUNTY

We learn from the Wilmington Herald that DR..
John Fl. Hill, of Brunswick has Withdrawn his name
as a candidate for the Commons in that County.
The Journal gives the for his withdrawal as
follows:
CDR. Hill withdrew from the canvass, because, in
accordance with his well-known high-mipdedness of
character" he could not and ,DouH not support Gen.
Scott. This fact the Herald does state He with
drew, although it is morally certain that he could
have been elected in oppos ton the Scott interest,
because he did not wish to be placed in direct antag
onism with those with whom he had been used to
He yielded his candidacy to the camors of the Scott
Whigs-his opposition TO Scott he did and could
not yield, and he said so distinctly at Rowell's.
DR.. Hill is none the less Wing than he was, al
though he endure the associations of Scott,
the open Convention doctrines of Mr.. Kerr. There
are intelligent Wing gentlemen in Brunswick, and
New Hanover besides DR.. Hill, who cannot go these
things; and denunciation will not mend the matter
for our Scott and Kerr fiends.''

myself to say that much opposed the passage
of the Homestead Bill aud if had been the City of
Washington at the time would have most certainly vo-

in its details 1t has always been my opinion that
Congress held the public lands trustee, and holding
them in that capacity that it possesses right dis
intentions of the trust The Bill in question: so far
from being intended for any such purpose in direct
conflict with it. But not disposed into
argument on the subject. With respect,

cannot call Convention Constitutionally the peo-

Convention. Is this opposing the voice of the peo-
pie?
Is not the voice of the people heard in the Legls-

all the done by the Legislature, the result of

THE WEATHER AND TIE Crops. There has been
a considerable quantity of rain in the vicinity of
Georgetown during the past week. The rice crops,
the True Republican says, good.
There was m ost refreshing and abundant rain in
Edgefeld the 9th inst. The Advertiser says that
the prospects for the coming crops are fine in
that neghborhood. and judging from existing crcum-
stances, 1t trusts that the cotton crop will open 10
cents per pound, and corn at fifty cents bushel.
The editor of the Lancaster S. G. Ledger, who
has just returned to his post, from visit this city
states that the crops look promising on the road and
that the yield of corn between Lancaster and Cam
den will no doubt be greater this year than has been
the case for long time.
The Anderson Gazette has been informed that there
was full blown cotton blossoms on the 10th June on
Maj. Harrson's plantation in the upper part of And
erson districts also, that there cotton blossoms
on Mrs. Sloans plantation the Goth of June.
In Georgia the Atlanta Inteligencer says that &C.
counts from all directions represent the growing crop
of be in unusually fine condition. The same
may be said of other grains The wheat crop of the
State has this year been quite large, and has been
generally harvested in excellent condition. The
cotton crop, however, does not promise well. In
the middle and lower parts of the State the growing
crop is said to be Backward and in some parts of Ala

The Tallahassee Florida Sentinel of the 9th inst,
