The Democracy Of Tennessee and the mai0rity
Of their party throughout the country have always
opposed indiscriminate of the public lands
for the benefit Of local interests and private corpo-
ratiOns, and advocated the policy of outstanding
them as homes for the people as the density of po
pulation and the high price of lands in the old
States should force them to seek homes in the new.
- Union and american.
What do the people of Tennessee, or of any
Southern State, want with homes in the new
States, and territories where the public lands
Lief Have they desire to remove from the
midst of society and institutions, which tole-
rate and protect slavery, and take up their
abode amongst abolitionists, free sellers, and
black republicans Would they not rather
prefer to remain in their own happy section,
and receive their portion of the bounty of the
government to develope the resources of the
State, to give them additional avenues to trade,
and TO increase their prosperity and happiness
on their native soil The policy of the de
mocracy of Tennessee, the Union and Ameri-
can states it correctly, would expatriate large
proportion of our peope-drive them away
to better their condition if possible, amongst
those who are, as they have been taught to
believe, by this same democracy, to be, their
enemies. 1t will be half a century-probably
full a century-before Tennessee, or any other
Southern State, will be..so densely populated as
to render it prudent to thin out the masses by
emigration, and when that period rolls around,
all the public domain will have been appro-
priated. Let US keep our people at home so
long as the general good issubserved by doing
so, and by every possible means improve their
condition upon the soil where they were born,
and where all the blessed memories of their
life delight to liDger.

FROM NICARAGUA.
GEN. WALKERS WHEREABOUTS AND FATE.
CONFLICTING RUMORS.
STATEMENT OF COZ. ANDERSON

We republish the following statement from the
N. Y. Express of the I4th inst:
One Of our reporters on Wednesday evening had
few moments conversation with Col. Frank An
derson, who came from Aspinwall, passenger per
steamship George Law, and who is still suffering
some considerable inconvenience from the wounds
and injuries he received at the explosion of the
steamer Scott several weeks since. From the Col
onel we learn the following highly important parti
culars. When be left Aspinwall, on the Sd inst,
Walker was still in Rivas, with some 500 men. A
day or two previous to his (Anderson) leaving the
lsthmus letter sCas reeeired from private source
"a San Francisco, requesting Gen. Walker to be
sure and be at San JaGrs del Sur ION the Pgcifc.
three or fOr days an Advance Of teasuaL time Of the
steamers arrival at tot place from San Franeisco,
but 'not to hare his expectations raised too high
aud he 1coud there find something to benefit him
and his cause The Colonel also informs US that
he heard from another source that the proposed
'bene6t" was in the shape of small sailing vessel
fitted up by private enterprise, having upwards OF
one hundred aud fifty men, tci good saPpLy0f pro-
visioHS arms ammunition DE, OH board, which An
dtrson thinks must have arrived ere this time, aud
been taken charge Of by Walker ar some Que OF his
Representatives. Col. Anderson says that Walker,
by means of spi s. is enabled TO keep up an active
communication with the sloop of warSt. Mary and
with San Juan del Sur. By these means he Wa
enatled to keep "posted up" The Col. thinks his
star is yet 10 the ascendant and that the General
work himself and army through the enemy 10
S=n Juan at any time he ehoos :; but he is stll
quite easy at Rivas, be prefers for the present
" mastery activity, in order to deceive the enemy
as to his real intent and purpose, until he shall
have sufficiently recruited his force to ensure his
success. The Colonel further says that he came
down the river to Aspinwall at the same time that
Lockridge's party did, but that he has remained on
the Isthmus so as 10 communicate with and satisfy
himself of Walkers position. From all he was
thus enabled 70 learn from, he gives little credence
to the report from New Orleans by t. legrdph, that
Walker had escaped and taken refuge on board
man-ot-war." He thinks it is fabrication.

OTHER REPORTS.


One Of the officers Of the George Law says that,
on leaving Aspinwall, the report current there
that Walker completely hemmed in on all sides
by the enemy in RIvas and that the Allies we're
about bringing their guns to bear upon him, in
which case there would, he thinks, be little ii any
hopes for him or his men, Of whom be had but about
$780, all told.

wealth the owner was preparing to part
company, to ''set his house in order" and
to die The legal adviser, under the direc-
ton of the sick man, drew up the last will

instrument was duly completed in conform

came; there was a cry of many failures.
Riches, which have always had wings,
never before had so many or such swift ones.
He was among those who went down. A
second summons came to the lawyer He
