Congress-.

We have no news Of special interest to
record from Washington. There arc ten
contested seats. Tie Committee on Flee.
tens will have work enough for one scs-
sion. The Committee has reported to tho
House, i'll the case Of WHITFIELD and Rec.
DER, both claiming 10 be members from
Kansas. The Frecsoil majority on tha,
Committee, submit report asking leave OF
the House to send to Kansas for witnesses
anil papers. The minority, headed by
Hon. A. II. STEVENS, of Georgia, has made
counter report, denying the right of Con
gress to examine into the legality or ille-
gality of WnlrFIELp's election, on the
grounds upon which it is claimed that
REEpER is entitled to a seat.

Whittier viii They Drift7

Truly, the know-Nothing party, in all
its Conventions, has exhibited an intuitive
knowledge of that miserable political game
of shifting sails to suit every breczc"-
The Convention recently held in Phil,del-
ph'a, has rcpndiatcd the platform adopted
in 1855, the 18th section Of which embo
died the doctrine of non-intervention by
Congress upon the question of slavery
the admission Of new States, either with or
without slavery, &c. But, alas this was
too much to concede to the Soutll-it must
be rescindcd. The Convention in 1856,
has taken tho responsibility, not only to
rcscind the 18th section, but to repudiate
the whole platform, and substitute one en-
tirely new.
In the new platform, they. have not
hreathcd word upon the great national
issues OF the country. They passed by in
silent contempt the slave issue, which in
fact is the prime cause of this war of Sec
tions. They make no distinctive enunca-
ton recognizing the conslitutionality of
slavery. The Southern wing of the party
have pointed with sclfsatiSfaction at the
18th section in the old platform, whenever
the soundncss Of their party upon slavery
was in issue. But to what plank in the
new platform will they point rs IN evidence
of this fact now! Perhaps they would
read you the following section, as proof of
it; but will sensible Southern men be hum
buggscd 10y such vague and underlined
stuff!
"G'h. The unqualified recognition and
maintenance of the reserved rights Of the
several States and the cultivation of har
mony aud fratcrnal good will, between
the citizens Of the several States, and to
this end, non-intcrfcrencc by Congress with
questions appcr,nining solely to the indi-
vidual States, and non intervention hy
each State with tho affairs of any other
State"
This is the only section in the new plat
form which bears the slightest resemblance
to the 18th section of the old one. And
are We to be told that this bait, thrown out
to catch Southern votes, is distinct recoy-
milton of the constitutional rights of the
stakeholder! Will the Southern wing of
the party, still cling to their Northern asso-
ciatcs, and support FILLMORE and DoSEL-
son, the nominees for President and Vice
President! Will they bin lily drift into the
clnp-trap set to catcl, their votes, or rpudi-
ate their allies as unworthy Of Southern
contilcnce Time will decide.

chickering's and jealousics in families whero
the treachcrous outside makes tho show of
harmony; contempt would bc found where
we good-naturcdly f.ncy esteem to exist
DO you really suppose that young couple
not long married, adore each other! Stop
awhile before you decide, observe attentive
ly; they not only do not love, but cordially
hate each other. A La Bruyere or Law
alter would see even more with their keen
and practiced eyes, but that is as deep ;.s
we need go.
But stop, don't go so fast: Why is Mrs.
- SO sad, and | really believe she has
shed tears? Is it because she has not II
magnificent silk dress like Mrs. -? or
diamond sets or pearls like Mrs. -? No,
indeed, she is INDUCED with all these ex-
travagances- only wccps because she
has not enough, money to go to Paris now,
to make there dash in the great world OF
all the wonders Of art, and then bring home
some new fashion that will make her the
envy of every lady, fora season at least, and
fast and d;.slling manners with which to as
tonish the simple natives"
Yours,

Kansas.

We learn from our exchanges that neariy
every District in the State have held K;.n-
sas meetings, and organized societies for the
purpose Of aiding those who are willing.
but unable to remove to this Territory with
out pecuniary aid. The people Of South
Carolina begi" to feel the great importance
of Southcrnizing Kansas. The bal. is fairly
III motion. Old Abhcvillc, too, has deter
mined to have place in the picture Her
citizens, with their accustomed liberality,
will subscribe their money to support those
who arc now battling for Southern inslilu-
tons upon the soil of Kansas. 1t is uur
imperative duty to move in this matter
many of our friends have removed to Kan
sas, carrying their slaves with them, hoping
thereby to extend the institutions of the
South.
1Iordes Of hired Alolitioni.ts are now
being sent to Kansas by Northern Abolition
Aid Societies, with the view Of aboitioni-
zing the Territory, and thus rob,,ing the
pro slavery men of their property. And
arc We, in the face Of such facts, to stand
idle, and make no effort to institute coun-
tcracting measures?
The idea of fighting seems to be associa-
ted with the idea Of removing to Kansas.
In our opinion, there will be no need of
lighting; we only want men to 60 there
and vote for us-to shoot paper bullets at
the ballot box.
We would urge upon the Committees
appointed at the meeting held at this Place
during Court, to use their efforts in procu-
ring subscriptions. We would also suggest
to those who are willing to go to Kansas,
that they should hand in their names to
any of the gentlemen composing the Com
mittce OH subscriptions.

Gloomy.

From the best information wo can rlcan
from our exchanges. we are led TO believe
that the prospects Of n South Carolina rep-
rcsentation in the Cincinnati Convention,
is growing "small by degrees and beauli-
fully less"
The Laurensvillc Herald Of the 7.h inst,
says that the thing proved an abortion in
Laurens-that not more than dozen could
be dragged into the meeting. The wire
pullers had to resort to stratagem. and hoax
the people by announcing that Kansas
meeting was to be held when by this ruse
they got the people together, proposition
to send delegates to Columbia was submit
ted, but it wouldn't take. After discussion
the meeting passed resolution that it was
incxpcdient that Lanrens should appoint
delegates to meet in Columbia in MAY
next.
The effort in Newberry, to stir up Gin.
cinnati fever,-" fell still born"
At Anderson, the meeting on sale day
numbered about $50 men, some of whom
were opponents Of the measure.
Lexington has refused to appoint dele.
gates to Columbia. A majority of the
Districts have not even called meeting o
the citizens; and several Of the District.
that held meetings, have refused to partici
pate in the Convention in Columbis. Blu
it makes no difference, if only three Dis
tricts in the State should send delegates tc
Columbia; we suppose that, according t.
the law OF Conventions, three District
could appoint delegates 70 represent tn,
whole State in tho Cincinnati Convention
1t is one Of tho beauties Of the Convention
system, that few selfappointed politica
hacks can represent the people Of who'll
State. w.

Nicaragua and Great Briiuin.-Thc
Washington correspondent of the Balti-
more Sun, writing under date ur the 9th,
says:
have been enabled to obtain COPY of
he existing treaty of ls49 between Great
Britain and Nicaragua, and which pre-
cludcs Nicaragua from attempting to ex-
tend her jurisdiction over San Juan del
Nortc or any part Of the Mosquito terri
tory.
The treaty was made under these cir
cunstances, to wit: Nicaragua had taken
possession Of San Juan, and British force
WAS landed there and the Nicaraguesc were
expelled, and their flag supplantcd by that
OF Mosquito. The difficulty WAS settled 10y
treaty concluded at Cuba, HI Island in
Lake Nicaragua, ono of the articles of
which stipuIates that any attempt by the
Nicaraguese "to exercise sovereignty over
any part of the Mosquito territory or re-
take possession of San Juan, should be con-
strucd as declaration of war against Great
Britain"
have also information from an authen-
llc source that the commander Of Her Bri-
tannic Majesty's fleet on the West Indian
station has distinct orders to prevent Mica
ragua, by force, if necessary, from taking
possession Of San Juan. 1t appears proba.
BILE, therefore. that ii the Nicaraguan gov
ernment attempt to carry into effect their
late decree, the British consul ut San Juan
will enter protest against it, and give no.
tice of the fact to the commanders of the
British ships of war Oh that coast. A Bri
tisll war steamer is always in readiness al
San Juan to carry orders or dispatches tc
the British admiral.
1t is not improbable, therefore, Greytowr
will soon be the sceno of another lombard
ment.

-hr. John j. Moore,
Editor If the True Carolinian:
In an editorial in your paper of the os,h
u't., upon the subject of the Savannah, Val
ley Railroad, you state that you have been
informed that a meeting Of the Stockhol,l-
crs residing at Anderson hal been held, and
that it was resolved unanimously by them
to withdraw their stock that the cause Of
this step had its origin in certain suspicious,
that it Was the intention of the President
of the sad Road, to complete it as far up
the country as might conduce to the inter
ests of Abbcville, and there stop, DC, DC.
AS an act of justice to ourselves as Stock
holders present at the meeting to which you
allude, we must be permitted to state that
your information is erroneous.
The cause which Induced the Stockhold-
ers of Anderson to give notice Of their in
tention to withdraw their stock, was solely
to guard against and prevent any injustice
or inequality which nigh; be produced hy
the Withdrawal Of other Stockholders along
the line. In other words, to place them
selves on an equality with others under the
amended charter Of 1855, and be governed
by circumstances, whether such notice of
withdrawal should stand or not, when the
Stockholders should again meet in Conven-
ton. There was no imrntation cast on the
President Of the Company, or want Of con-
fdcnce alluded to in the said meeting that
We heard.

Savannah Valley Rail Road.

We were induced to make some stric-
lures upon the course pursued by the Stock
holders ut Anderson, upon the authority of
statements contained in the True Curoli-
nan, published at Anderson G.. ii. And
rs the Editor admits that the information
upon which he based his remarks WAS in
correct, and publishes a Card signed 10y Il
number of the largest Stockholders at that
place, we, in justice TO the parties, and us
explanatory OF the true causes which in
