THE EPIDEMIC SuMMER.--We are under OBJ
legations to the proprietor of the New Or
leans True Delta, for a copy of work bear
ing the above title. 1t contains, first, very
interesting review of Yellow Fever, its causes,
&c. by J. j. McFarlane, NJ. d., wit, some
mortuary statistics, and then a list of inter
ments in all the cemetries of New Orleaus,
from the lst Of May to the lst of November
1853, together with name and ages of de-
ceased, places of nativity, causes of death, date
of interments, and name of cemetry in (which
inferred, alphabetically arranged. Price, Scots
per copy, sent by single copy or in quantities
to any part Of the United States on payment
being made in advance in post Office stamps,
or in the current funds of any State in the
Union. Orders to be forwarded to the publ
cation office of the True Delta, l03, St. Char
les street, New Orleans.
We should think the protector of this work
had "struck breeze" in getting it up. So
many have died who have friends far away,
who will find moulnful satisfaction in look
ing over the crowded and dark record and so
many, generally will have desire to examine
it, that we predict the work will have great
run. 1t is got up in neat substantial style, ar
ranged so as to be easily referred to in looking
for any particular name and contains near 70
pages printed in fine type The whole num-
Der of interments reported within the dates
above given is 1851.

rapid progress, that some speedy and success
fui resistance became absolutely essential, un-
less the States mean to surrender their sover-
eigntv and to become dependant satellites OF
central power.
This resistance of Stale Rights Democracy
resolved to make in the Presidential election
of 1852. They resolved that the resolutions
of 1913 and '99 should be incorporated into the
platform Of the party, and that candidate
Should be presented of whose devotion to
State Rights no suspicion could be felt They
were successful ON both issues. The princi-
pies of Jefferson and Madison were re-asserted
bv the Baltimore Convention, and Franklin
Pierce. consistent and Jealous disciple OF the
State Rights school, was nominated for the
Presidency.
This was all the work Estate Rights Dem
ocrats. The platform was State Rights tn'
umph-the nomination was State Rights
triumph.
The election of Mr. Pierce was accomplish
ed mainly through the instrumentallty OF
State Rights Democrats F; and they looked
with confidence to him for the vindlcatlon
of their principles. The proffer of the first
place IN his 0aDiheb W tno host oihinS"'
champion of State Rights since the death OF
Calhoun, gave assurance, that President Pierce
would not disappoint the hopes of his friends
We have now in his first Message to Congress
the most authoritative and satisfactory justi-
fication of the confidence which State Rights
Democrats reposed in Mr.. Pierre, and the
best guaranty of his devotion to their princi-
pies. We find the resolutions of '96 and '90
are not barren distractions" but that they
constitute the creed in accordance with which
the policy of the Administration is to be de-
termined. We hear again from the Federal
Executive, a declaration of allegiance to the
principle fstrict-construction, and State Sow
ereignty, for which the disciples of the Vngin-
ia School, have contended since the remarka-
BILE era of '9s. We hear the President Of the
United States avow his purpose to resist the
encroachments of Federal power, and to con
strue the constitution in the spirit of Madison
We hear him conjure Congress to respect the
rights of the States, and to abstain from the
exercise of any doubtful principle of Federal
power. And his opinions are not expressed
only in general defamation lie brings his
principles to bear on practical issues, and pro
poses to carry them outin practical legislation

SLAVERY OF THE PREss.-The person who

attendant upon the publication of a'newspa-

The writer says:
Il know of no slavery upon earth like
that attendant upon newspaper life, wheth-

task is never ended, your responsibility never
secured the last days work is forgotten at
the close of the day on which it appears, and
the dragon of tomorrow waits open-mouthed
to devour your thoughts, and snap up one
morsel more of your vexed existence. Be as
successful as it is in the nature of things to

I'VE acknowledge the receipt of an ad-
dress of Charles Gayare, (late independent
candidate for Congressional honors, in the lst
Congressional District of Louisiana) "on the
late frauds perpetrated at the election held on
the 7rh Of November, 1853, in The city of New
Orleans" The honorable gentleman is very
severe upon Judge Dunbar his successful OPP
ponent, and upon certain imaginary individuals
who lie not only insinuates but directly charges,
procured his defeat, by fraud and corruption.
He congratulates himself on the quality Of
the votes he received, having been supported,
we suppose, by the Polka Dancing, kid gloves
and silk stocking gentry Of the city. He should
remember, that in this democratic country of
ours, the success of all political aspirants de-
pends uponthe number of their political sup,
porters und not upon their quality.
Mr.. Gayare's fate is that Of all Independent
candidates, and his defeat is we ehaye. no doubt
due to the fact that he did not receive votes
enough.
