The steamer Fanny has arrived from the Bra.

correct, that Caryrjal had attacked Camargo, but
had been rcpulsed, aud obliged TO retreat, with
the loss Of his artillery and ammunition Car
vajal had about 500 men with him.

The City Printing.

Some few days since, we published state
ment in reference to the City Printing. and re-
marks which we understood Mr. Arnold Harris
had made concerning our connection with the
same. A card in yesterdays Delta merely
claims from us this notice. We distinctly un-
derstood the gentleman making the communica-
ton to us, to state that Mr. A. Harris had
avowed his intention to make the City Printing
ruinous to the Crescent We admit the posi-
billy of a misapprehension of the language
used, as every gentleman is the best judge If
what his.words mean otherwise, we should be
positive in the reiteration of the statements we
have made AS for consulting the gentleman and
asking his permission to publish what we under
stood him to state, we conceive and conceived
any such procedure to be entirely unnecessary.
Tie conversation occurred in public place, a
room in which a number of persons were gath
cred. and who might have heard all that was
said, if they chose. Nor do we understand that
a gentleman can communicate to us public de-
clarations Of official hostility = declarations
which must influence our editorial course and
then claim the cover of privacy for his commu-
nications. -f.n
We are, however, happy to learn that the mat
ter has been amicably adjusted between the par
ties, and that the gentleman referred to as our
authority, disclaims the construction which,
from our understanding, we were compelled to
put upon his remarks

could wage effective war in opposition to their
declared views. Therefore, to prevent agita-
ton, to preserve peace within our borders, to
make agitation an impossbility. to trample into
the dust all probability Of sectional issues, we
hold it desirable and proper that the two great
national parties should proclaim their determi-
nation to support none other than known
Compromise man. This would be the surest
way to prevent sectional agitation. If the Com
promise measures are nationally right, if they
vindicate nothing more than Constitutions
privileges, is it not curious that it should be
claimed that Presidential candidate can hold
a dubious position in regard to them The
very statement Of such claim must awaken
suspicion and create alarm IF the position Of
Presidential candidate may, or should, be
doubtful, why should it be so' Behind this
question lie anxieties and suspicious not unrea-
sonable in their nature, and fearfully danger
Gus and Irritating in their very uncertainty Of
form. Congress has already spoken on the
Compromise measnres-has made them laws,
and no Presidential candidate can reasonably
shelter himself under a proud disdain or cum
ming intrigue for the favor of conflicting Sec
tionalsms If there is one man on earth that
we admire as a politician, it is Henry Clay ;
and we admire him because he never hesitated
to speak, in the highways and by-ways, to one
or to thousand, the honest convictions of his
mind We follow no man in any contest who
has not the same fearless honesty and independ-
ent principle
