than years deliberation. The result ol
which is that Gill of tho Patriot has come
out victorious, the libel has been sustained
and a jury of his countrymen has awarded
to MIR. Gill, Editor of the Patriot, the con.

having originated in the South, and tn
tendency of its principles favors southern
interests. Let us look at this moment
What say the Southern peOple2
During this summer, elections have beer
held in six southern States. In but on,

is small, compared with what used to b.
the defeats ofthe democrats. In five sixth
of those states, the administration demo
cratic party has triumphed. These fact
certainly do not show the American part!
as the avorite in the south. Why is thisi
For two reasons.
The southern people have no gene raj pO
litical principles and measures of govern
ment. They know nothing about principles
and government, except as they tend tc
strengthen and extend their peculiar insti
tuition Of slavery. Hence we find southern
votes uniformly given to that political par
ty which will favour them, Now, it is no
torious that the democratic party as nov
organized under President Pierce, has Civ
en- its entire power and influence to tht
advancement of southern interests and in
stitutiOns, even in opposition to, and det
rimental of northern. The people of thu
south, acting upon the precept that "birG
in the hand is worth two in the bush,
give their votes and confidence to the dem
ocratic party. Thus we find it in theory
and in practice to be the pro-slavery south
ern party.
On the other hand, southern people sec
that throughout the entire north, the Amer
ican party has thrown its powerful infu
ence in opposition to Slavery-have indeed
secured in the next Congress powerful
phalanx opposed to slav very extension
Their State Convention and a powerful mi
nOrity in National Convention, have pro.
claimed such decided opinions, that it is
now established, that the Americ an party,
is the powerful party Of this country,
based upon the JefferSonian democratic
principle, that all men are created free and
equal. Thus, the American party, while
it uncompromisingly opposes slavery and
slave extension, derives its Americanism
from the American truths so nobly pro-
claimed by Jefferson and Washington
These principles, as the recent elections
show, do not suit southern slaveowners.-
The noble principle of Liberty is too Amer.
lean to suit Shareholders. The American
party, acting for America, bases itself up
on the broad platform of the Declaration
of Independence and the Constitution
This, however, is too general for the slave
ocracy. They want party which ismore
local in its favors. The American party,
based upon Freedom, is too general for
the slave drivers, they therefore vote a.
gainst it. The administration democratic
party, based upon the local institution of
slavery, suits slave drivers, they therefore
vote for it Thus are the two great par
ties Of our country arrayed and supported
by their respective friends--the admins
tration or slave party, patronized by slave
owners, and the American or Liberty par
ty composed of the Freemen of America

is quite certain will yield from 80 to 40 bushels TO

escape the rust which is the real enemy Of this

Agentleman of our acquaintance who resides
in this city has been spending few days in Ross

no humbug about this wheat. Our nsghbor
