The Meeting of the state Council.

Since our connection with the daily press we
have attended great many Conventions, but We
must say, in all sincerity, that we never particle
pated in the deliberations Of one which afforded
rs more satisfaction than the meeting OF the Anne
rican State Council held in this city on WednesS
day last. IL Was not only very large meeting
but it was composed Of intelligent Rnd influential
men; of Americans whose every impulse was pa
triotic, and who by their speeches and votes pro-
we'd themselves worthy of the party to which
they are attached and Of which they we're the
able representatives
The proceedings throughout were significant Of
the harmony and good feeling which prevail in the
American rank. Almost every mention OF the
names of Fillmore and Donelson elected warm ap-
plause, The glowing tributes paid TO Mr.. Fiji
more by several Of the speakers were responded
20 with enshusiasm, and the adoption of the res
solution endorsing his nomination and that of MIR.
Donelson, was accompanied by burst of appro
baton nightly gratifying to their friends and sup
porters.
Our friends in other States may rect assured
thar every effort of which the Americans of New
Jersey are capable, will be made 10 enroll our
gallant State in the list Of those which, in No-
vember next, will cast their electoral votes for
he American candidates. We have difficulties
20 contend with, obstacles to surmount, but If
true hearts aud determined will can accom-
plish It a glorious result viii be achieVed-Ness

famous notoriety would be likely to suffer
from the want of nourishment. But, pri-
vate citizens, merchants, lawyers, and 9th
ers, who are supposed to have some sense
of justice, some glimmerings of enlightened
reason left, are expected to be truer to their
own good fame, and to the amenities Of civil
lied society. To say that the South desires
by intimidation and violence to suppress
the freedom of speech and of the press, is a
wholesale SANDER, by whomsoever uttered
To the men of the North, the men of the
South, say, ENJOY your freedom of speech
let the press be unrestrained in the exer-
else of that liberty which the law guaran-
tees it; but do not use these precious boons
of good government to blacken and de-
fame, to deride and insult US. We cannot
and will not submit to insult and cOntumely.
To do so would be to prove ourselves I'M
worthy descendants of our heroic ancestry"
What the South resistS and will continue to
resist is the use of the guarantees of free
dom of speech and the press to insult her,
and to break down the constitutional bar
riers which protect her rights against the
sweeping tide ofNorthern fanaticism. Let
the Northern aggressor confne himself to
the exercise of his rights, and he will new
er have cause to complain of the South.

The late Fatal Affair in Cahawbn,

The late Fatal Affair in CahaVVba, Ala.
The Selma Sentinel has the following additional
particulars in relation to this tragic affair:
On last Friday evening about shutdown, a most
unfortunate bloody and fatal ARRAY ocured at Ca.
hsWba, in which Drs Troy and Hunter, and Judge
w. Z. Bird on the one side-and Johd R. Bell and
his two Sons, Charles A. and John A. on the other
were the parties, which resulted 10 the death of
John r. Bell and one of bis sons, John A. Bell
Some few weeks ago, it seems, the dwelling house
of DR.. Troy destroyed by FIRE, and about the
same time efforts were made to fire Judge Birds
dwelling. No clue could then be had as to who the
incendiary was. DR.. Troy becoming satisfied that
John A. Bell had been instrumental in burning his
dwelling, instituted suit before the Circuit Court
for damages against Jno A. Bell. Jno. A. Bell be.
coming exasperated at the institution of the suit,
went TO the Doctors Office on Friday evening, and
commenced an assault upon DR.. Troy with stick
and drawn pistol About the same time Charles
A. Bell ran up and commenced firing a pistol DR..
Hunter, Judge Bird and John r. Bell, all coming
up about that time general firing of pistols and
shot gun ommenced-Judge Bird shooting John
r. Bell with pistol, while DR.. Hunter shot John
r. Bell, both of whom died almost instantly, and
il was miraculous how Charles A. Bell, Drs Troy
and Hunter and Judge Bird escaped being shot
The parties we're immediately arrested, and en-
examination commenced before Abner Jones' ESQ,
which was continued up to a late hour on Saturday
evening, when Dr. Troy was discharged DR.. Hun.
ter and Judge Bird were bound over for their APP
pearance at the next term Of the Circuit Court in

Communism Dying Ous.

The reader is doubtless informed Of the fact that
since the expulsion Of the Mormons from Nauvoo,
Illinois, the site Of that town has fallen into the
cupation Of Mons. CADET, who, at the head OF a
body Of French Socialists entitled the Icaran CO.
lony, has for few years past been endeavoring 10
put into practice there the principles Of commun'
ism. For some time they got on only passably well
but at length the apple Of diseord has rolled in and
the Community become so divided that whilst Ca
bet himself and a minority Of the colonists are
derstood TO advocate immigration from France, a
majority opposes such course, and directly warns
their foreign brethren against risking the chances
of much discomfort and suffering, owing TO the
divided condition Of the colony. II we mistake
not, all the numerous PbAansteries that seven
years ago dotted the Northern and Middle
States have died out and thai the Icarian Commu-
nifty should timely follow their fate may be
ably expected

Public vIooting ina New York.

A public meeting, composed of citizens
of all shades of politics, called for the pur-
pose of giving expression to the public SEN
tment relative to the assault of Mr.. Brooks
on Senator Sumner, was held at the Taber
nacle in the city of New York, on the night
of the 3Oth ult. The object Of the meeting
was legitimate. 1t is the right Of the peo-
pie to meet and express their opinions upon
any thing that concerns the public veal I;
and no one, we apprehend, desires to re-
strict this right But, we submit whether
it is Just and proper for a meeting called
under the circumstances which suggested
the New York meeting, te insult the people
Of the South by attributing TO them motives
and feelings which they not only donot en-
terrain, but which they reject with indignant
scorn. One Of the resolutions adopted by
this meeting, irrespective Of party, contains
the following declaration
"That upon the present state of the evil
dence, we are forced most nnwilingy 10 the
sad conclusion that the general community Of
the slave States is in completely, in feeling and
principle, with the system of intimidation aud
violence for the suppression of freedom OF
speech and Of the press, OF which the assault
on Senator Sumner is the most signal, bat not
the singular instance"
1t is well enough, perhaps, for fanatics
like Greeley, aud Beecher, and Sumner, 10
deliberately write ISLANDERS upon the entire
South--nothing better can be expected Of
them. 1t is their vocation. To abandon
It, would be 10 leave them to a dull routine

The KANSAS TRoUBLEs--The New York
Herald declares the troubles in Kansas
originated with Pierce and his adviser,
Forney. By appointing as Governor Mr..
Reeder, who turned ont to be land specu-
lator and who invited host of anti-slavery
landjobbers like himself into the territory,
they started all the excitement" Reeder
is now fugitive from Kansas, and is en-
gagged in preaching up an antislavery cru
SADIE against the pro-slavery men and terri
torial government which he initiated. Had
some good Southern man been appointed
Governor of Kansas, as was the case in
Nebraska, it is probable the country would
have been spared the disgrace which has
been entailed upon it by the appointment of
Reeder.
