Mr.. BUTTS Il thank you for, while l ad-
mire, the manly independence, you have shown
in regard to your defence of the restoration of
the death Penalty, as set forth in your reply to
the Sentinel
1t is very remarkable, that some of the pro-
fessed friends, of the measure alluded to, do not
more fully understand, and appreciate the Bible
Argument for the infction of death for the crime
of murder; and moreover that they do not per-
ceivc, that any argument in its favor based on
the ground of expectancy only, is justly assail-
able, and weak The ruifanly assault made
upon me, not upon my argument, in the "Frcc
Democrat" of course my self respect would for
bid me to notice. But the remark of the "Sen.
tinel's" correspondence in regard to clergyman
coming to Madison, on the GRAND did, was
not such as 1 had expected to see in that respec
table paper. Nevertheless, the Argument we
uttered still stands as we think unanswered
although our friend Sholes thinks it has done ne
great mischief,
With my Kindest wishes for your success,
/ am Yours truly,
JOHN GRIDLEY.

touched. There has been much outside discus
sion of the question. My present opinion is
that the assembly will not repeal the present
law. Davis of Columbia has introduced bill
regulating the manner of applying for "Pardons'
1t has been supposed that under the constltu-
ton the Governor has unlimited pardoning pow
er. BY reference however to that instrument it
will be seen that his power in this matter is sub
lect to law regulating the manner of applying
for pardons, which in effect destroys the unli-
mted authority of the Governor in the premi-
ses. This is the purpose of the bill in question:
and should it pass, as think it will, the pardon
ing power for Capital offences will be very
much retracted.
The Republican members of the legislature,
in caucus recently recommended the State Gen.
trail committee to call State Convention some-
time next month The object of the Convention
is to free the Republican committees from menu
bcrs of other parties who persist in clinging to
our party while aiding and working with others;
to nominate Presidential electors and appoint
delegates to National Republican Convention
and do such other things which the emergency
may require.
/ am glad to notice that the Republicans OF
Kenosha County, are moving to make their or
ganization effective. ,.

In the Supreme Court Mr.. Arnold, counsel

Counsel for Bashford objected. Court decided
that argument should proceed. Mr. Carpenter

PUBLIC FEELING IN ENGLAND TOWARDS
AMERICA.-The London correspondent of the

An incident cf considerable significance, as

towards the United States, occurred at Guild
hal! on Tuesday last, at the visit of the King of
Sardinia to the city When Mr. Buchanan was
announced, he was received with loud, enthusi.
astic cheering, which lasted for some time The
spontaneous outburst of popular favor was so
decided as to command the attention of every
person in that vast concourSe. 1t was so mar
kcd indeed that even those public journals
which Systematically treat America and Amcri-

no lsbor-saying machinery or modern positive
science cnsayed literally the educated and skillfal
Caucasian man, and held military glory as the high
est pursuit; and race so situated, spced up too,
by the hdeous barbarisms of the Spartan creed,
necessarily went into rabid internecine wars; but
TO suppose that these North.American States under
any conditions would follow the same game is fogy
batbDdness, and the error Ia not the less gross for
being iterated in high places. Mr. Everett should
remember that the Constitution Of these States
was easily made. All the procliyties to it were At
work. The debates in Convention showed simply
differences as TO the degree Of Federal authority,
but none as to the principle of that authority.
The Union, then, from the start, lay in the hearts
and pockets of the people, and the Constitution
simply gymbozed it. Moreover the greatest me-
chsnica inventions Of this nineteenth century have
immeasurablv aided the natural reasons for union,
,found in great waters and easily traversed plains.
The Susquehannah, Delaware, Potomac, Ohio,
Tennessee, Mississippi, and other great rivers-the
vast chain Of Lakes-the Gulf of Mexico, the
Mississippi Valley-sre indestructible sources OF
union, and Of continental extension 10 people
like our own, with common language and COM

the work of De Witt Clinton's genius-more inn

tuition were nullifed tomorrow, would carry
smother in dOuble-quick time to the Capital. 10
ali this we must add the supernal-like agency OF
the steaInimpelled newspaper Press, which sheds
its leaves of light, love- and liberty, thick as the
those of our prmeval forests.
We regret to find such parish politics entertain
ing the coed people of Boston, when their minds
should expand with the philosophical agencies OF
the epoch. How any person can believe that
speech more or less at Washington cemented this
Union, or had such prodgous influence on poster
ity as Mr.. Everett attributes TO that of Mr. Web
ster we cannot imagine, except that apart from
bucolic neutrality-suspicious. often being
gentlemen farmers" and loving the smell of oxen
every tendency to the union growing out of posi-
tive science and the mechanical inventions ia ignored
by them, because they have no notion of lessening
the exaggerated, nsolent, bullying attitude which
the politician has ever held in history to the dest
tuition and dshOnor Of almost every other class and
pursuit.

General Harvey had ordered out detail Of 100 NE

were TO travel on the ce and had prepared the -ed

fixed, as the General was awaiting dispatches from
Major Howe, whom he had sent down on the "Leau
aui Court" and from whom nothing had been heard
up to the time of the departure Of the express. Some
OF the Indians had been in, and had talk with the
