The proposed southern party is opposed by
ex-governor Cobb, of Georgia, in a long and
able letter published in the papers of that State.
lie does not believe that the rights of the south
are IN such danger as to require sectional
party, and seems to have great confidence that
the national men of the north, although tenn
porarily defeated, will finally triumph over ia
naticism: The south, he says, should stand by
them now, in their day of trial. as they have
ever stood by the constitutional rights of the
south with unyielding courage. Such course
he considers the only one to ensure the stabil
lty and perpetuaton of the Union, and to Sc
cure justice to the southern States.

to protest against them. In the first place,
those who most frequently approach and have

hate, rancor, and vindictive passion or fierce

the same; generally, the strain and tone of the
French journals are far from being hostile or

n-commlssloned officer 100 acres, each Off
Ger 200 acres, and 500 acres each to few SUI
peror officers. The Canadians evince pur-
pose to hang on to the land, and aid the pro-

Leavenworth City, Kansas territory, having
become the starting point of the Salt lake ira
ders, is doing thriving business. Such is the
quantity of goods passing through the place,
that in the space of one week SIT, 474 was paid

dates, a train of six hundred wagons laden with
government stores was about to start for the
