FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 16, 1856.
The old Line Wings and the Amer
lean Orga

The Savannah (Georgia) Republican, an
American paper has the following.
A late number of the Boston Courier, the un-
Rinched champion of the great Webster, and
one of the most conservative papers beyond the
Potomac, contains a strong article upon the
duty of the conservative m,n OF New England
in the approaching Presidential contest. It
advises the "straight Wings of that section
the disciples of Webster and Clay -'' to keep
their souls steeled against any mixture with an
adverse party. and to stand to the ground 0!
their honesty and integrity. and let consequen-
ces 90 where they will" The Courier adds,
however:
"We have multitude of friends, who are
anxious to stimulate us to take open ground for
Mr. Fillmore for President, because he appears
to be the only man, who, in his political charac-
ter and political history, meets the opinions o:
the straight Wings of Massachusetts,, and is
likely to be presented befoore the people. The
answer to them is-Let the people which has
nominated Mr.. Fillmore open its nomination to
all who please to coincide with it-have no
secret councils at all, and they will have many
adherents which they cannot obtain other
WISE"
The advice of the Courier is our advice; nay
more, it is good advice. g Let the party which
has nominated Mfr. Fillmore open its nomina
ton to all who please to concide with it." This
| is the true policy: it is patriotic; it is right
1t is the policy, moreover, indicated by the re-
solves of the American Council of Georgia, at
its meeting few weeks ago. Let him be run
not as the nominee of party. but as the choice
of conservative men of all parties. 1t was thus
that the elder Presidents were brought before
the country and elected MIR Fillmore is not
simply an American or Wing; he is a con-
4
Judge ready to mete out equal handed justice
as well to the South as to the North.
Let him be brought before the people, there
fore, in manner which opens the way to the
support of conservative men, and the friends OF
the Union, and of all indeed who are willing to
&C: ju tly between the Nollh and the South to
IdiscounteRaEce sectional agitation and official
corruption, and to show their utter "disgust for
the wild hunt after Office which characterizes
the age"
Platforms at best, if not worthless, are but
the delphic mutterIng of unscrupulous leaders
-"springs TO catch woodcoeks." They are
neither evidences of present opinions, nor ol
future bona Jfde intentions, but simple promises
"held to the ear" during the struggle for power
only to be "broken to the hope" when the end
: is attained.
We have seldom known political conven.
ton that was not an unmitigated humbug. The
} pas life and public acts of such man as Mr.
Fillmore afford a better guaranty than all the
resolutions ever drawn. .

SHARPE RIFLES AND SHARP PARsoNs-The
Rererend Henry Ward Beecher, whose re-
markable course has rendered him quite conspic-
uous, was present. few evenings since, at
meeting of the old North Church Of New Haven
at which Kansas and the cause of Free Stateism
was taken into consideration. The Reverend
gentlemen was more than usually happy on that
occasion. He commented with great glee upon
the ominous name Of K'tidm, which belonged
to one Of the subscribers for Sharpe's rifles to
shoot down the neighbors and countrymen of
the Northern settlers in Kansas. He rejoiced
in the spirit of the meeting, and congratulated
the Free State men in the movement then on
foot, which would teach them that there was a
North.
1t is astonishing how very sanguinary clerical
lgentlemen North of Mason & Dixon's line are
becoming. But q. short time since, at the me
gro worshippers' convention, there issued from
| white cravat warlike voice, to which the old
shrieks of Wendell Phillips and William Lloyd
Garrison were peaceful pipings. Now we have
another parson s,Ibscribinga Bible and Sharpe
rifle to one of his parishoners. and despatchins

- The TREATY OF PEACE.--Ihe Upintone OF
published at Turin, gives upon what
it considers good authority, the conditions con n
ed in the Treaty OF Peace. They arr said TO be
as follows:
I. Naturalization of th, Black Sea. r ssia
not to keep more than ten ships or war armed for
the defence of the coasts. s
III. Nicolaief reduced to merchant port, with
engagement that no ships of war shall be construc-
ted beyond the number as agreed to as above.
III. Russia to allow Consus from all the Pow
ers in the ports of the Black Sea and the BAL
tic. .s 4e
w. Bomarsnnd not to be reconstructed. a
V. Russia cedes part of the territory Of Bes-
sarabia, comprising the fortress of Ismail. - i
VI. Russia renounces the exclusive protector
ate of the Danubiap Principalities. i
VII. She equally renounces the protectorate
of the Greeks of the Ottoman empire.
VIII. The free navigation of the Danube is
guaranteed to all States, without exception.
The IXth article refers, to the commission to
be sent into the Princpalties to study the qnes-
tions of the frontiers and Of the mode Of govern-
ment
The Opinione denies that any stipulation has
been made In favor of Sardinia, and that the Ital
ian question will be discussed at large by the
Plenipotentiaries in their supplementary sitting.
Russia will, IL is said, send an Ambassador to
Paris after the ratification Of the treaty. II

YAz0O CITY. MISS, FRIDAY. MAY 23, 1856,
H. made him feel Independent.

A man named Porter, says, he once had a
clerical friend between whom and himself there
existed great intimacy.
Every Saturday night, as Porter was sitting
balancing his cash, note would come, reques-
ting :.the loan of a five dollar bil The money
was always returned punctually at eight O'Clock
on the Monday morning following But what
puzzled the lender was, the Parson always re-
turned the very identical note he borrowed
Since he had discovered this fact, he made pri
vate MARKS on the note: still the same was
handed back OH Monday morning. On Satur-
day evening P. sent a five dollar gold piece, ln-
stead OF a note, and marked it. Siills the very
same was returned on Monday. Porter got
nervous and bilious about it, he could not sleep
at night for thinking of it, he would awake at
midnirh. and ask his wife what she thought
about such strange occurrence. He was fast
boiling over, when a note came from the rever-
end borrower, one Christmas Eve, asking the
loan of ten dollars A bright thought struck
our friend He puts on his great coat. resol-
we'd to call and demand an explanation Of the
mystery.
When he was shown his friends study, he
found him plunged in the profoundest melan-
choly. a saf
I" Mr.. ****,' said our friend, if you will an
swer me one question, will let yeu have the
ten dollars. .:s i
"How does it happen that you always repay
me the money you borrow on the Saturday
night in the very same coin or note on Mon
day. ss 3
The parson raised his head and after vic 'ent
struggle, as though we were about to unyail
the hoardsd history of his soul, said in faltering
tones
"Porter you are a gentleman-a scholar
christian, and New Yorker--I know | can
rely on your inviolable secrecy--iisten to the
secret of my eloquence. You know that ana
poor, and when have bought my Sunday din
ner, have seldom red cent left in my poke,
Now, maintain that no man can preach the
Gospel and blow up his congregation properly
without he has got something in his pocket te
inspire him with confidence. | have therefore
borrowed five dollars of you every Saturday
that might feel it occasionall, as preached
on Sunday. You know how independently
do preach-how make the rich shake in thei1
shoes; well it is all owing to my having five
dollar biz in my pocket! Of course never hav
ing to use it for any other purpose, it is no
changed, but invariably returning to You the
next morning. Now, as Mr.. George Law il
coming to hear me preach to morrow, though
I would try the effect of ten dollar sermon OF
him."
