" Equal Rights. "

We see in the Ohio Statesman, an article
of more than a column, signed as above.
The writer intended it as an attack upon
US, but we are not harmed. 1t is a low,
scurrilous, senseless piece of billingsgate,
doubtless penned by blackguard. Wea
surprised that the proprietors of the Ohio
Statesman would lend their columns for
such a purpose.

Seeking and Obtaining Justice.-A singular
instance Of the imperfection of all human in
stitutions, and particularly of the very great
uncertainty of the law, was brought to the no.
tice of the Grand Jury of the Court of Quarter
Sessions of Philadelphia: on Friday, the Sd inst,
and is thus narrated by the Ledger:
"a poor servant girl had been unable to pay
her board at a place where she had been iodg-
ing, while out Of a situation, and thelandlady
not only turned her away, but detained her
clothes for the sum due. The girl applied to
an Alderman for process to obtain her clothes,
and he issued a warrant charging the landlady
with larceny. The defendant gave bail for her
appearance to answer the charge at court, and
the girl was committed 10 jail as a witness, not
being able to give security for her attendance
at court to testify. Having lost her property
by misfortune, she now lost her liberty bv ask.
ing for justice. She remained in Jail until the
meeting OF the conrt, when, on presenting her.
self before the Grand Jury, and stating the
above facts, that body very benevolently raised
a subscription of several dollars for her, had her
released from custody, and sent her off to re-
deem her clothes, instructing her to report to
them the result of her application to her land.

"As several communications, from various

Letter from MIR. Graham.

The following patriotic letter from the Wing
nominee for the Vice Presidency, addressed to
the Southern Rights Committee Of Alabama
will be read with interest:
H1LLsBoRoUGH, N. c., Aug. %, 1852.
Gentlemen: Your letter, propounding a Sc
ries of heterogeneous, at the instance of the
Southern Rights Convention of the State of
Alabama, which assembled at Montgomery on
the 18th ult., has been received.
In reply, | have the honor to say, that | am
by birth, education, residence, association and
interest, identified with the South. These,
with my past life, afford, in my opinion, a bet
ter guarantee of fidelity to all her just rights
than any declarations of abstract or s~pecula-
tive opinions, after | have been, by a Conven-
ton Of my political friends, placed before the
nation as a candidate for a high station. Ide-
sire to see an end to the agitation of slavery
in connection with national politics, ard | be-
lieve that by a faithful adherence to the adjust-
ment made by the Compromise of 1850, and
the execution of the law as it has been carried
out by the present executive head Of the Gov
eminent, the country is destined to a repose
and security on this exciting topic, such as it
has not enjoyed since the agitation commenced.
While this appears to be the general state
of public feeling in all sections, | can perceive
neither a necessity or utility, on the part OF The
South, for q discussion Of the extreme cases
of apprehended injury comprised in your in
terrogatories, as among the practical questions
of the times; such was the unanimous opinion
of those patriotic citizens of the South who
were delegated to the Convention by which l
was nominated, and who required only an ac-
quiescence in the Compromise as a security for
their rights in the present j%uncture; and in that
opinion | concur. | shall undertake to esta-
blish no new tests of orthodoxy, to fan the
Of local excitement in the one section or

and a purpose to maintain the integrity of the

Eloquent and Truthtul-Major ALEXANDER
B. BRADFORD, of Mississippi, Major of the Isl
Mississippi Regiment of Rifemen, delivered
speech at Memphis, on the 10Th of August, in
| which he thus referred to certain charges made
against Gen. scorr by Col. JEFF. DAVIS, a few
days previous, at the same place:
"Col. Davis told you, fellow-citizens, that in
all of those qualities which command the affec-
tons and confidence of those around him, Gen.
Scott is slngularly wanting, being proud, petu-
liant, vain and presumptuoas. fit be proud. to
pay strict attention to the wants of the poor SOL
dier--to visit the dreary and presidential hospi-
tai and wipe the moisture from the fevered
brow of the sick--to wait upon the cholera pa
tents OF the army--to raise the dying soldier
from his CORY bed on the battle field and
staunch his bleeding wounds-ifit be proud to
90 these things, then Gen. Scott is a very proud,
a naughty man If it be petulant to curb the
restless and unruly officers of the army--to
hold them down with a hand of iron, and make
them behave themselves like good soldiers and
gentiemen-if it be petulent to be tight on the
officers but good on the men'-if this be petu-
liant, then Gen. Scott is something ola ~petulant
and peevish man. If it is uain, to apparel him
self on the eve of a battle according to the rules
and regulations Of the service, with his golden
epauletts on his shoulders and his tall plume
towering above him, so that friend and foe NAV
know his grade-and then to plunge into the
battle where the conflict is %fercest, where the
bullets rain thickest, and where the carnage
RACES deadliest-if this be vain, I am afraid Gen.
Scott is a very vain-glorious man! [Tremen-
douse applause. If to know that he possess
ses as much skill promptitude and judgement, as
any man of the age, in the planning a campaign,
reducing a fortress, or in drawing up the pro-
gramme of a pitched battle, so clear in its de-
tails, so suspicious in its success, that it would
seem as If the victory was won before the bat.

must conclude, with Col. Davis, that Gen Scott
