his social condolences? Are we, indeed, living

ty of the same offence, and the majority report
embraced them both in the same resolution, as
follows:
Resozred, That this House hereby declare its
disapprobution of the said act of Henry A. Ed
mundson and Lawrence NJ. Kcitt in regard 10
the said assault
We can give but one solution to this ques-
tion: the indignity was aimed at South Carroll.
na The resolution TO expel Mr.. Brooks had
failed, and political malice, disappointed Of its
first victim, turned upon his colleague. To sim
gle him out, and, by making him the sole object
of censure, thus insult the State whose Repre-
sentative he was, became at once the game. MIR.
Sumner had singled out South Carolina for his
ISLANDERS and viluperation, and now the House
of Representatives acts in the same spirit.
We hope that the lesson will be remembered
in South Carolina If her past position and
principles have made her the mark of fanalirsm,
she will not he insensible, we trust 10 the honor
which is involved in still maintaining them. At
such time, she cannot recede one inch from
the point to which true and brave devotion 10
the rights of the South has brought her, nor
abae The least of that spirit which procures for
her the honor of being first in the hatred of
the enemies of the South. While calmly turn.

contemtible as il is unjust, she can still remem-
ber the spirit and motive which inspired it,

THE "GA11ANTu MR. WOODRUFF.

That most worthy paper, the New York Day
Book, whose zeal in behalf Of the South many
Southern Journals might properly initiate, thus
charac,erizes this most "Yaant" Of MIR. Brooks
opponents:
1t is not easy 10 conceive of mere conlemp.
tiLle fellow than this man Woodruff. He Is
however, ust such miserable, cowardly crea-
ture as one might expect the wooden nutmeg
button makers aud tin pedlers Of Connecticut
would send to represent them At Washington.
His conduct is enough 20 make one fairly asham-
cd of his race. Just look at The poltroon; he
gets up in his place and lets off TRADE of high
sounding bragadocio and common blackguard-
ism about cowardice, ruflianism and brutality,
declaring himself responsible for what he says,
and looking around with an air of defiance as if
he carried a gun.boat armament on his back,
and screaming at the top Of his voice, "come
out! who dares fight me!" and sits down cov-
cred with Black Republican glory. Fifteen
minutes after this he Is called aside by friend
of The man he has grossly abused, and asked il!
he will fight, when all Of i sudden lie discovers
that his peace principles forbid the thought OF
hos,ilities! His lips become paliid, his knees
tremble, and putting up both hands he exclaitns.
"my dear sir, | meant no oifense whatever; !
will make any apology you desire; never Fight !:
fighting is against my principles. DO, besecch
you, sir, take my apology to Mr.. Brooks and
tell him I meant no offence" And this is 4
Black Republican champion, Il Connecticut hero
We do not see what respectable men, who are
obliged TO sit in Congress day after, day and
listen 10 such mems blackguardism, can do
they cannot sloop TO :cply TO their stuff, and
they cannot make them stand up TO their pro-
fessions. The only proper way TO treat them,
that we can conceive Of, is to kick them as one
would dirty dog.

Sir, the majority rules in this republic, and tue
interest of majority is against you. How then
can you nationally hope to succeed? 1t only by
conciliang natural opposition, and by effecting conf
promises with those who are interested to oppose
YOU 1t is by enlistng the feelings Of the many or
your side, by the spirit Of kindness with which you
present your claims, and b! the moderation with
which you portray your sufferings.
Have you adopted wise aud prudent course
like this? Have not, on the contrary, your dires
execrations been visited on villagers and lawyers
equalled only by the wild rawlings of your party al
the Parishes, ever since this contest began VIII
men yield in your favor, whilst you denounce and
attempt to osracise them aver to you in the
presence Of our Maker, that you can never accom-
plish Division until you gain over to its support
both Parishes and lawyers, however destabie they
may be in Your eyes. Begin your work, therefore
in season; lawyers have no horns, nor have the
mon Of the Parishes tails. They reason and fee
like men, and they have the impulses and honor o
men. Why is it that you have selected only few
lawyers, out Of the whole State, for your especial
caresses2 Are they more honest than the rest, OF
are they less lawyers? Perhaps their legal attain
ments ha We not yet rendered them odious; but you
will naturally expect them to improve with expert
ence. You had better take care Of them whilst
they are yet docile. or they will turn their horns
against you and gore you, as they grow older and
wiser.
My friend, amend your course, and You may YET
prosper The only hope that is left you, is to effect
complete change of your ministry, and of the ad
visers of the crown. We read somewhere Of a mon.
ster with seven heads and ten horns Let it not be
said that your party is nothing but more horrible
prodigy, with no head and ten horns.
In concluding this letter, must again beg you to
take no offence at the language have been COM
PEELED to use towards you, in my humble appeal to
your better judgment. The truth, as it seldom
reaches them, must sound very harshly in the ears
of potentates and though your dominions are little
crcumscribed, only the more behooves you to act
kingly part.
l Iwarn you again, that without total change Of
your counselors, and an entire shifting of your
policy, your project is utterly defeated Be pleased
to lay these pieces aside, and if they be not verified
by time, in word and letter. then reproach me as
being unworthy TO make safe suggestion-ca me
no son ofa prophet In the meantime, advise your
friends to make 10 speculations, yet awhile in the
purchase of Butler town Lots.

MINISTER 10 MEXICO.

President Pierce has recalled Gen. Gadsden
Minister 10 Mexico, and appointed in his stead
Mr. Forsythe, editor OF the Mobile Register
This event appears to have attracted but little
attention. Why was Gen. Gadsden removed
What has he done which was not approved oi
by the government at Washington? What has
he failed to do, which was required Of him
Has he rendered himself obnoxious to the Gov
ernment of Mexico? If so, in what way? Or
was Gen. Gadsden recalled TO make room for
one who is more Of Democratic parlizan, and
whose services demanded q recompense?
The country is interested in knowing the rea-
sons why Gen. Gadsden has been superseded.
The matter should not be suffered to he slurred
over or passed by without satisfactory expla-
nation. If Gen. Gadsden has neglected his off.
cial duties. violated his instructions, or compro-
missed his government by word or deed. the lr'-
lure and character of the offence should be made
public If on The contrary, he has been faithful
in the discharge of his mission, and has been re-
moved for only party purposes, The country
should know it all. and The parlicipators in the
shameful transaction should be held up to pub
lie scorn and rcprobation. viii any one OF the
