SOUTHERN DEPENDENCE UPON THE NORTH.

speech made by Mr. Albert Pike, at The
Southern Convention recently held in
Charleston, S. C. Said DIR. Pike:

and see in what reration we stand to the
North. From the rattle with which the
purse tickies the ear Of the child born in the
South, TO the shroud that covers the cold form
of the dead. every thing comes to US from the
North. We rise from between sheets made

feathers, to wash i'm basins made in the

Northern looms; we eat from northern plates
and dishes; our rooms are swept with North.

side Of the Planter! Now we like Papa
Langdon--we respect him as q venerable
relic Of old fogyism and of tha last century
I've admire him AZ an ardent thunderer
against oil new tangled ideas oI progress and
imProvement-and we deeply cherish him as
the editor and publisher Of the Rockport
Planter, and the principal owner and propri.
etor Of Spencer county. Being thus attach.
ed to him. we feel very much stricken at the
following perception of our attributes, which
we clip from one of his editorials:
Had Mr.. Beatty called on Us, with his re-
putation as an able writer, we could have re-
commended 10 him larger and better field
from which to reap harvest Of wealth and
renown-a place where writer Of obiiity is
badly wanted; we mean the half-grown city
of Evansville. The last impo ts.ion OF an
editor from "away down to Cairo can Ina rd.
ly keep up with the growing Importance OF
the city, he has too much gaseous vapor.
and has nearly evsporated-not, perhaps,

seeing the good opening for Mr.. Beatty a,
Rockport, and overlooking a better one al
Evansville.
We acknowledge the oys,er-eating and
cigar-smoking, and even confess to but lOO
pounds OF animal matter. We discIam the
wine-bibing, however, since we had the diar.
rhea in Rockport few years ago, and pro.

Beatty thinks there 10 an opening in Evans
Vile, he can come and try. We shall mo-
turn the cold shoulder to him, but will render
him warm assistance In starting. As Pap,
Langdon thinks there is no ability in thi,
field, we do hope he will move the Planter t.
Evsnsvills right away. 1t 10 not fair tina

The correspondent OF the New York ou-
rier and Enquirer says:
The first fight of the session occurred this
morning. Mr.. Farley, OF Maine, very
amable and moderate Whig member, has
charge of the bill for establishing line OF
telegraph across the territories between the
Mississippi river and the Pacific ocean. He
urged il in a courteous and appropriate man
ner. He was interrupted by Gen. Lane, of
Oregon, aud, with ready politeness, yielded
him the floor. The delegate from Oregon
Instantly launched out into warm opp0si.
ton to the DILL. MIR. Farley, with perfect
good temper, and in mild aud gentlemanly
tone, called him to order. Gen. Lane turn
ed iercely upon him, and replied, 81 will not
be called to order"
Mr.. Farley rejoined, with intense excite
ment of manner, 81 have as much right to call
you to order as you had to call me to ORDER"
Lane is represented to have Kissed out the
words, "You are liar" to which Mr.. Far.
ley responded, "You are Cd d-d liar. %
The parties instantane ousiy rushed upon one
another. striking furiously. Whether any OF
the blows Of either took effect, could not
determine. They were fortunately, at the
commencement of the fracas, separated by
two desks. Before these obstacles were
overcome. each of the combatants was sur
rounded and seized by several OF his friends.
The entire provocation proceeded from Lane,
as the above description of the scene shows;
and though the language of Mr.. Fsrley ad.
mits of no other excuse than that of uncon.
trUlable excitement, produced by an intoler-
able insult. the feeling and opinion of the
House were unanimously with him.
II may be added that the temper in which
Lane conducted himself throughout the af.
iair, was shown by his language and manner
after the heat Of the momen. had passed.
Being permitted, by the Indulgence of the
House, to speak again on the bill. he com.
menced by saying: When interrupted by

not alone in suspecting the Chapmans o

the most bitter ard vind.ctive among the
entire Fusion press of the State. But recent
ly, his son having received the Fusion caucus
nomination for State Printer, his paper has
