From the Montgomery tila) Advertiser, September ]
A Buehanan paper.
MR.. BUCHANAN AND CUBA.

The position assumed BY Mr.. Buchan
an in the Ostend Conference Manifesto,
in regard 10 the acquisition of Cuba,
ought certainly to decide every Southern
man to cast his vote cheerfully for him.
1t removed all doubt, if any existed, OF
his real friendship 10 the South, AMI
placed him immeasurably above all other
Northern statesmen. We regret that
this conclusive fact in his favor has not
had its due prominence in the present
contest. Its great importance cannot be
too often dwelt upon by papers and
speakers, for it constitutes a claim never
before possessed BY any candidate for
the Presidency. His opponents may
misconstrue aud distor. his votes agains,
Abolition petitions; his votes and speeches
against the abolition of Slavery in the
District of Columbia; they may garble
bis speech upon the annexation of Tex
as, and, in violation OF all the principles
of sound logic, deduce Odiou5 doctrines
from his letter of acceptance, but the
language of The Ostend Manifesto de6es
all of their arts and ingenuity. While
the boldness of the position for North
ern man is without parallel. IFS sound
dess cannot be gainssid or disputed.
We beg the especial attention of our
readers, as Sou hern men, to the follow
ing most significant extract from that
manifesto. remembering tha, the confer
ence was held in the fall of 1854. only
ttro years SiRce::
ALTER we shall have offered Spain =
price for Cuba far beyond lis present
value. and this shall have been refused,
it will then be time to consider the ques-
lion, Does Cuba, in the possession of
Spain seriously eudanger our internal
peace, and the existence Of our cherished
Union?

The Louisville Journal, (Filimofe J

The Louisville Journal, (Filimore
says:
Such are the Democratic leaders Of
Virginia, the most conservative and
moderate Of the Southern States. The
leaders of the Democratic party in the
more firery and radical States of the
South are Of course proportionaliy ex-
treme. So fierce and notorious, indeed,
is their haired of the Union that they
need only to be mentioned to be recog-
nized and abhorred by every patriot -
Their names have acquired the power of
synonymes of disunion in the popular ap-
prehension. At the very thought of dis
union they come thronging up with the
resistess force of Interchangeable associa
ton. Yulee, Of Florida, who sat at the
feet Of Calhoun with an implicitneSs
which eclipsed the veneralion of Paul at

the Democratic party few years ago
under tress of hostility to the Union, and
whose voices have never since been lifted
at home or in the councils of the nation,
but for disunion, Clay and Yancey and
Winston, of Alabama, who are nothing
if not disunionsts, Soule and Slidell, of
Louisiana, burning fire eaters, who in
this juncture are known to speak the
sentiments of the entire Democratic
party of their State, Quitman and Brown
and Davis, of Mississippi, the master
spirits OF the Nashville ConveHtion, and
the most unqualified and bare faced of
all the foes of the Union, Brown and
Turney. OF Tennessee, and Johnson, of
Arkansas, and Howard. or Texas, are
but representative names, selected al
random from the seeihing and foaming
mass Of the Democratic leaders of the
South. They are black disunionists all.
Their spirits are all sold TO the demon OF
disunion as unreservedly as Fausl's was
sold to the..deviI. Their hearts are steep
ed deep ard low in bitterness against the
Union. They are pledged every whit
as fully to the lips in favor Of disunion
as their fellow traitors of South Carroll

utatiOn. Their infamy is known of all

THE FEDRAL TROoPs TO BE USED TO
ExPEL TIE FREE STATE Men IN KANSAS.
The Richmond Examiner, one of Mr..
Buchanan's principle supporters in Vir-
gipia, exults over the passage of the
Army Bill, and thus indicates the policy
to be pursued towards the unfortunate
free settlers in Kansas. 1t vindiclively
demands their bloody expulsion =
The timely action of the President
has disconnected these plans, and put a
new face on affairs. The army is still
on foot in Kansas. and We are glad to see
that Col. Sumner. the abolition comman-
der at Fort Leaycnwcrlh, has got leave
of absence from the seat Of the troubles,
which we hope is of inde6natd duration.
Lane and Brown, and their army Of laza
roni and thieves, will have to face the
Federal troops on one side. while Tie in
furate pro slerery men, 'cho are mastering
be- thousands, igW attack them in tie rear.
THEY HAVE SOWED THE WHIRL-
WIND; LET THEM REAP THE
STORM.

Letter Of Henry A. Wise of Virginia.
RIcHMoND. Va. Sept. 6, 1856.
DEAR SIR: On my return from n short
absence. l found yours Of the 99th ult.,
asking my opinion on the question
"Would the election of Fremont to the
Presidency bring about dissolution of
the Union ?" My answer is. that the
very spirit of sectionalism which runs
such Il mere adventurer as he is, in eve
ry sense, has engendered so much envy,
hatred and malace between various sec
lions and factions of our people, as to
create a wish in the minds of many, so
strong FOR a dissolution of our blessed
Union, that, 10 tell them his election
would bring that lamentable event about
would make some of his bitterest oppo-
nents vote for his ele:;ion, for the very
purpose of affecting ,hat cxecrable end.
His election would bring about the dis
olniiOn of the American Confederacy ol
States inevitably. Why? For the rea
son that ii New York, Pennsylvania and
Ohio were slaveholding States, and Can
ada were to assail them with half the
violence and call uncharitableness -
which Black Republicanism is assailing
US with, there would be public war in
thirty days by every patriots time piece
Whether the present state Of peaceful req
olmion, Of trdriike brotherhood, Of confed
crate aatogonisn Of shakehaEd enniiy, OF
sectional union, Of united enemies, shall
UNNATU3ALLr CONTINUE, depends pre-
c;sely upon the issue whether Black Re
publicanism is strong enough to elect
John C Fremont, with all the demon
isms at his heels You may do what
you please with this letter.
Yours, respectfully,
HENRY A WISE.

SLAVERY AND KANSAS.

The Squatter SoSereign is The recog
nized organ of the Buchanan party in
Kansas Territory. 1t receives the pat
ronage of the administration, and carries
the names OF Buchanan AMI Breckin-
ridge at the head of its columns That
paper thus exposes the fixed purpose of
those who have made Kansas field Of
strife and bloodshed -
I'VE predetermined TO repel this North
ern invasion, and make KsnSas a slave
State, though our rivers should be col
ored with the blood Of the victims. and
the carcases Of dead aboliLionists should
be so numerous in the territory as TO
breed disease and sickness: we will not
be deferred in our purpose. Let those
who desire graves in Kansas engage in
this unholy and unjust war against the
extensions of our beloved Institution. that

Gen. Pierce ss President, it Was thought that
John P. Hale had gone down into the very
depths of political oblivion; but another turn
of the political wheel has carried Hale back
soain into the Senate, and Pierce to the level
of Csp<ain John Tyler as candidate fer the
succession.
The Senate at Washington were edited the
other dsy with the views of Mr.. Hale upon this
point, in his characteristic bluntness of style.
He declared that the Presidents Message, and
the impotence of Mr.. Pierce to get it before
Congress, might be safely charged to his desire
for another term, and his expectations from
another National Democratic Convention; but
Hale thinks that his late political brother from
the Granite hills has no more chance for the
Cincinnati nomination than one of the pages
of the Senate. And we believe that this is the
opinion of almost every man, woman and child
in the Union detached from the disbursements
of the public treasury. The delusion of Mr..

inveigled him into this folly. A war with
