EThe last resort of the Buchanan men

EThe last resort of the Buchanan men,
is the attempt to destroy the fame of Old
Hickory for writing a letter not quite suited
to the purposes of the campaign. The Lou
isville Courier says -
A pirate letter written by Jackson in 1G45,
just before his death, Meanly viifying Bu-
chanan, charging him with cowardice and
f4lsehood. is shamelessly dargged forth to
degrade Buchanan. The infamy of the affair
R .srs upon Jackson for writing this letter,
and next upon those who brought it to light
for political effect now, for the first time. They
who " heap opprobrium mountain high upon
the grave Of Jackson" are they who have
dishonored him and degraded themselves by
publishing the unfortunate PRIVATE letter Of
the insanely Vindictive OLD TYRANT, who in
this very letter proved that, 10 the last, no
touch of justice or magnanimity towards an
opponent or rival ever entered his breast,
and his only use for friends was to make
tools Of them"
So modern democracy has progressed so
far that it is obliged to pitch into Old Hick-
ory to defend its present position.

Although this is the short session Of Con
gress. the land grabbers Of the North western
States srp here in full force, prepared to make
another effort a, pillnging the public domain.
They managed to get eighteen million Of acres
at the las, session, and probably will get as
much, if not more, at this. In few years, al
the present rate of appropriation, not an acre
will be left-bnt the whole public domain will be
in thu hands Of greedy aud unprincrled specu.
lators and adventurers. In this condition Of af.
fairs il NAV be worth the while Of the South 10
consider whether it is not sound policy to en-.
courage the building Of Pacific Railroad, as is
proposed at the Savannah Convention on the
line OF the Bind parallel, by grants of the pub
lie lands. before they are all appropriated by
specalsting swindlers. Unless something OF this
sort be done, the South will derive no benefit
whatever from her common interest IN these
lands except from what little goes into the ma
tional Treasury from the proceeds of their sales.
