JACKSON, July Goth, 1854
Ed Comet.-According to prom
Use. send you q few lines Of scribblo,
by the mail that closes at 9 O'Clock.
We arrived about ten Yesterday. after
quite an agreeable ride, taking the
hot weather into consideration When
within about mile Of the town. we
heard the STRAINS of the college band
of music, which, by the way does cred
it to the Institution, and to the young
gentlemen who compose it Or a.
irving at the College Chapel, "
found the room filed to the utmost ca
pacity, by the ladies. Perhaps
should have said "the most beautiful
ladies' but as | am no Judge. such
criticism may well be left to the dc
cision and superior judgement Of our
friend of the Gazette, who [ observed
was "a chile among them taking
notes" The Lieut.. was in eestacies.
and swore he had never seen such a
congregation Of beauty in any part Of
the South west and that the auditn-
ces at the French opera, could not
present sucl, real native American
simplicity of robust and healthy beau
ty. There were no plants of hot
house production, or sickly growth
among them.
The order Of exercises for the day.

/ will merely say, that IN general
the young men acquitted themselves
very well. The action and enuocla-
ton Of the speakers Of the Franklin
Institute, was better than that of the
speakers of the Union Literary Society.
The latter spoke too hurridly, and
consequently indistinctveIy. 7 he
speeches as you will see, were strongly
tinged with politics-but that was
very naturally to be expected.
The fact is, Young America Is
wide awake and will soon WELD the
destines Of the nation. The speech #
James Moore-"America, her Des'i-
tiny was rather on the ''old fogY
order"-he was for pntting br'dls
in the mouth Of young America, to
check her impetuosity. IF acquisition

our territory, as young America"
demands, VIC will soon be in The con
dition Of some ancient conJucrer; I
forget what his name is, who wept
because there were no more world
TO conquer. Mr.. Moore has within
him the elements Of a good speaker
and with proper cultivation canno:
fail to take permanent position in
the line Of life, to which he may ap
ply himself.

Cry HorEr,, SAVANNAH,
July goth 1854
Editor Of the Comet-Sir You
will do me great favor to say to the
citizens of Baton Rouge, against whom
it would seem from thousand mis-
statements / have SO egregiously sin.
ned, that | shall return in few days
to vindicate my character. Were |
a common felon, who had outraged all
tie laws and ordinances Of society, |
could not have been, more villified by
the press Of your own city and your
Confrercs of the Metropolis of your
State, Of whose generosity and LIBERAL.
ty 50 much has been said. l am sor-
ry indeed that any of your trades peo-
ple' should presume--on the fear Of
1oosipg few dollars, to intimate the
responsibility of any one else than my
self for the two or three bills con-
tracted by me whilst scjourning in your
city. Certainly this has been done
without any warrant on my part. As
to the reports in reference to my jour
ney along the coast Of the Mississippi,
they have scarcely bare fact to stand
upon, That had any intention to
felonously dispose Of the carriage OBJ
tanned on the recommendation Of my
friend Mr.. Hatch, is false and Sian
derous. The vehicle is at the plantas
ton Of Mr.. D. Fortiere, on the coast, if
it has not yet been returned the owner
according to my request. The ma
licious feeling manifested against me,
has mostly proceeded from parties
whom / have not injured, and who
know nothing of me but my name. It
is all therefore (as far as am con-
cerned entirely barmless) I regret ex-
ceediDgly that | have been drawn be-
fore the public as | have, and treated
with SO much malicious discourtesy.-
In few days l shall return to New
Orleans in company with the Baron
Schenck, from which city I shall re-
visi to Baton Rouge.
Yours,
NEssELRoDE.
P. s. Will you be pleased to take
such letters from the Office as arrive
for me, and retain them until I see
you again.

before him who knows that he is
going up like fatted calf, to be imo-
lated on the alter of truth and virtue
who sees the two edged dagger before
him whetted for the sacriice-the
butcher knife wherewith he is to be
used up.
We feel very sensible that we are
on the unpopular side, and that our
own vast reputation for morality and
virtue is at stake-that we must ever
hereafter be denominated the friend
of the drunkatd, and the bar room
advocate but we will endeavour to
stand our ground and defend it, in the
simplicity Of honest CONJUNCTION, and
wait for the tide Of popular opinion
to set in towards us, when the public
mind changes on the temperance ques-
lion, as it is most certain to do II
suits us not now, to quote the Latin
adage "ror populi, roc DEL" there
are too many instances on record Of
its fallacy. The Invaluable church,
the never erring, tortured Calico with
the rack, for asserting the fact of the
worlds motion, hereby throwing
doubt on the authority Of General
Joshua, to command the god of day
to "stand STILL" and this only0a brief
two centuries and half age. But
to come down from moonshine to mat
ters Of moment. ''Second Ward
gratuitously assumes that we chrage
the Board of Selectmen with dispo-
sition "to override the Legislative
law of the land, and thrust down the
threats of the people, arbitrary and
unconstitutional enactments." This
he does-(so it would seem) for no
other purpose than to make out
strong case. What we say is this
"the Legislature has no right to dele
gate to corporate bodies, the power of
regulating private habits, and to pro-
hibit the use of any article of com
merce. Such is the ultimate design
Of the "no License movemements.
In reference to the vote Of the second
Ward Of this city, where public opin
lie seems to be divided, we say the
matter should be settled--or rather
remain in statua quo, as it was, until
next season, when the vote may be
legally taken again, according to the
act
"Seoond Ward" says that "the
vote settles nothing at all, and as an
election, is q mere nudity" We will
grant him for the sake Of argument,
that as ian election, it is mere null
ity. But is it an election Is there
an Office vacant, and to be filed ?
No sir, nothing Of this kind. This
feature Of republican government, is
new feature, that savors much of the
mobrocratic, and being new freature
there are no fundamental laws to
govern it. It should not be called
"an election there should be some
other term that it might be known as
it is--"a vote taken to ascertain what
species of tyrrany the majority may
impose upon tho minority. IT'S idle
talk-a waste Of uuavailing gable to
endeavour to show that it is not an
unwaranted assumption on the part of
the majority--a direct attact upon
personal rights, that if INDUCED in for
a series of years, will inevitably result
in civil wars. We are no ultra-Dem-
ocrat--we fell that certain rights
must be yielded to society for its good
order; but contend that the line is

The LycEuM.-The pleasure of
listning to young America on the sub
ject of license at the old Presbyterian
Church on Thursday evening last,
was (oweipg to unforeseen circum-
stances) denied us. From reliable
sources we learn however that he did
himself credit. He brought down the
house in the loud parts, and affected
the bright eyes, turned upon him, in
such manner as soul stirring elo-
quence is want to do.
