The disunion traitors who are incessantly
slandering The South, assert, because the reve-
nues are principally collected At northern ports,
that the South pays but little into the treasury
and is a burthen on the government. This is
unjust as well as false The revenues are de-
rived from duties on imports which are paid for
by the products of the country. The furnish-
ers Of the products are those upon whom the
bnrthens oflhe duties rest for whatever amount
is paid in duties is 50 much deducted from the

| THE AMER1oN Party vs. AEoLITIoSl.N-
Day after day proofsa are presented strong as
Holy WIT. tHt the Abolitionlsts Of the
North regard the American party as their
most dangerousopponent.
The South needs no better evidence Of the
conservatism Of the American party than the
invectives hurried against it by the rankest
Abolition leaders, Geo. ". Julian, Of lndi-
ana, once an Abolition member of Congress,
ants in the last Presidential election, the
4 BOLTON candidate for Vice President on the
ticket with JOIN P. Hale, of New Hamp-
shire, and at preent. the head and front Of
Aboiitionism in Indiana, in a letter written
since the late Addition convention at Pitts
burg, says:
"One thing I must say of Know Nothing
ism ] have opposed it from the beginning,
but before | wentto Pittsburg | had no con-
ception of the mlchiei it has done to the
cause OF freedom in a thousand different
ways. wish l lad time to specify and il.
lustrate."
The cause of feedomn here means Abe.
Gtionism of the deepest, blacklist dye. AI'e
the Anti Slavery eaders, from the apostate
Seward. down to the meanest pot-house poll
~iticians of the Black Republican stamp: use
similar language in regard to the American
party.
The following extract from the Albany
State Register, which appears to be the lieu.
tenant of the New York Tribune, the chief
organ of Sewardism shows the light in whica
the Abolitionists regard the American candl'
date for the Presidency. Abiding to MI
Fillmore, the Register says:
He was nominated through the influence
of outside Wings OF the Si!ver-Grey faction
united with the ~ultraists of the South, ana
because he was a SIver-Grey Wing: and ,'a'
pledged by his amecea'ats, by hispresent opinions
and associations, to torward and sustain the p"'-
cy Of the South in senling slavery into territory
prohibited by the Missouri Compromise fro" ITS
encroacdme,us.o
We might fill our columns with similar ex'
tracts from the speeches and writings OF Lead
ing Abolitionists, proving that the Amerlcan
party is emiuently tie conservative party OF
the country, and that Willard Fillmore IS
hated by the negro-worshippers because ne
has manifested, by his past public lite, =
soundness upon the slavery question. that
renders him peculiarly worthy Of the fullest
confidence of Southern men.
1t cannot be possible, that. through .ae
misrepresentation and calumnies OF a re"
anti-American, otfce-loying, foreign-courtlns
demagosues, the South will be SO much bllnd,
ed to its real interests and its truest and tired
friends as to refuse to give its Undivided sup
port to Millard Fillmore in November next

vSome time ago we referred to the con-
dition OF the telegraph line on this side of the
river. and making inquiries as to the where
abouts of the proprietors. We have not been
able, SO far, to obtain any information as re-
gardsthe proprietors. or any other intelligence
concerning it. We have been requested to
call attention again to this matter, as some OF
our residents have evinced a determination
to pull down the posts and throw the wire
into the river. The cause of this, is simply
because their cattle have been injured by be-
coming entangled IN the wire, and in some
instances the cattle have been killed.
We give notice to all persons Interested in
the line, or its proprietors. if this caution can
reach them, that unless the line is taken down
from the posts and put away, those persons
whose cattle have been injured will do it
for them, and that too in some place where
they will not be likely to find either posts CT
Wire.

FRUIT Csors.-Notwithstanding the ex-
IRENE cold weather of the past winter, which
has killed all the Orange trees, the Peach
Plum. Fig, Wild Cherry and other fruit trees
bear abundant evidence of a large fruit crop
this year. We have been in orchards and
gardens and seen those trees literally break
ing down under the weight of the fruit-yet
green. Judging by what we have heard from
others, the same abundance is visible in al
most every parish of the State. Fruit will
be cheap enough to satisfy sven the most de-
pouring appetite.
