COL. SMITH AND TIL ELECTION OF
Mr.. SPEAKEEBANKS.
Iron the Eas. russsean.l


IL will be recollected TT with all the fuss
Democracy makes about Hack Republican
ism, that its Representative, Hon. s. A.
Smith, introduced the resoution which Sc
cured Dir. Banks el.etpi. Well Sam,
Sammy, or Hon. Sam, expined that at this
place, thus:
lie said in substance thu the organization
Of the House had been delged for two long
months and that up to hesery hour he in.
troduced his plurality rule no such resolu.
ton could have been passd and that on the
previous day and that IA te last ballot cast
Gov. Aiken had received the votes of the
Know Nothing party, and nat had they all
remained true to him 10 would have been
elected under his resolution. Let As see
how this was. The plunity rule was adopt
ed only BY a majority of DE or two, or per-
haps three.
All the Black Republicans present voted
for Col. Smiths resolution. Messrs. Cling.
man, Herbert, Sewett, Hickman, Kelley,
Samuel A. Smith, Barday, Boyard, Wells
and Williams,-lO-deEocats voted for it.
MIR. Clark, Northern ffeesoiler was the
only American in the House who voted
for it. .. ....
Col. Smith charges siA Americans did not
vote for Gov. Aiken andv Banks obtained
a plurality of one oyerhim, therefore the
Know Nothings elected Banks under the
rule. ~
Now Col. Smith as. Democrat, and one
of the democratic organization who had BAL
loted for Speaker for two months, with a
party resolution adopted in a Democratic
caucus, the tenor of which was insulting to
the Americans in the House, had no pledge
from them, and no right To expect them as q
whole to adhere to hin and his party.
But he had a RICH to expect that Gov.
Aiken would be supported by the entire De-
mocracy! Did they do II! No. Seven Of
his own party who ,houd have been pres.
ent, when their names were called did not
vote, and two of whom sould have elected
him. Does not this charge come with an
ilhgrace from q man who introduced the
plurality rule, or party whose own MEM
bers failed to vote for their own candidate!
As matter Of reference we annex the
names Of the Democratic members who fail
ed to votefo. Gov. Aiken, to wit:
Hickman, Parker and Barclay of Pa.
Burton Craig Of N. e.
VIM. A. Richardson OF iii.
Jas. l.. Seward, Ga. "A
w. Taylor of Louisiana.
1t is but proper to add that Col. Smith
said he had never regretted what he had
done in it, and under similar circumstances
he would pursue the same course.
No Southern Democrat should ever men
ton this matter but in the dark where their
bushes could not be seen.

TREwHIrr AND BURcH.--Ws had the plea
sure, while at Washington, Of listening to m
animated and able discussion between Messrs.
Trswhitt and Burch, the candidates for the
State Senate in the Eighth District. wi,hvut
time for particularizing, we must say that the
cause has no ADLER and more gallant champion
In the State than Dan. Trewhitt, nor one who
discusses the questions at issue with more
point, power and effect. And in Burch, II is
just to say, he has foeman worthy of bis
steel, as the Captain is beyond question the
ablest debuter his party has on the stump in
East Tennessee, and is more attractive and
impressive speaker than the distinguished
gentleman who is travelling around trying to
prevent Bob Haltou from being the next
Governor Of this glorious old commonwealth.
We don't recollect to have ever seen prsttier
pit, or where the gaffs were made to enter
more deeply. AS Hiberuian friend Of ours
once remarked upon seeing N sst-to between
two female women" "it beats cock.fghtin'
entirely" Trswhitt has this advantage--hs
10 on the right and equitable side Of tho ques-
tions at issue, and 10 using that advantage with
Tremendous effect. Burch 10 on the defensive,
and Notwithstanding his skill at parrying. is
evidently suffering good deal. At least 1t
appeared that way to US on last Tuesday,
We understand that Trswhitt's prospects Of
an election are very fair

GEN. RUsK ON THE SLAVERY QUESTION.
We have been permitted to publish the
following extract from letter written by our
Senator Rusk, to a distinguished citizen of
Texas, and dated Nacogdoches, April %,
1857. The gentleman to whom the letter
was addressed, permits the publication, be-
cause he believes it important that the opin-
ion of such man as Gen. Rusk, on a ques-
tion of such vital Importance, should be
known:
"Mr Buchanan's cabinet gives pretty gen
eral satisfaction. They were very much
pressed while remained, and could not
very we'll judge, from what little l saw, how
they will work. The abolition party are
becoming moro formidable every day, and
unless they are boldly and promptly met,
we have much mischief to apprehend. II
Mclean lives, l think they will run him for
President in 1860. The rapid increase Of
non-slaveholding States is bringing In a dan
gerous element, and think the slave-hold-
ing States should lose no time nor exertions
in strengthening themselves, to meet prompt
ly any encroachments upon their constitu-
tional rights and equality. Very truly,
yours, THOS. j. RUSK."

presiding United States officers, towards
free sohite citizens of Ohio, deserves to be
punished with the highest penalties of the
law. If the law is lame, they should be
made to taste some Of tho blessings they
themselves were attempting to administer
to their betters.

FEDERAL POWER.


It must be evident to every man who OBJ
serves the signs of the times, that the power
of the federal government is steadily in
creasiug, while that of the states separately
considered, is as steadily diminishing. In
deed it is scarcely worth while longer to use
the word federal, and it is falling into neg
lect. The word national is now tho familiar
term. The democracy delight to be called
national. There is moro than n difference
in sound between these words. Tho CEN
trail government was originally styled fed
eral, because it marked union of independ-
ent states. The founders of the union had
well grounded fear that the central gov
ernment would swallow up the states, and
this fear seems about TO be realized. The
common sentiment of the people indicates
that the sovereignty of the States has been
almost forgotten. A state Office is spurned
by him who can get one under the federal
government. Tho national democracy is
laboring to spread the doctrine that the
laws of the general government, and the
decisions of its courts, must be obeyed,
whether constitutional or unconstitutional,
whether in conflict with tho reserved
rights of the states or not. Tho offic-
ials Of the central government, like the
frogs of Egypt, come up into our very
houses, beds and kneading troughs, in
the shape of postmasters, collectors,
marshals, &c. Not township election
can be held, in which an agent of that gov
ernment is not busy; who regards it as far
moro his duty to "Icg" for his party, than to
attend to the duties of his office.
The end of these things will be that the
states will be left with the shadow of pow
er without the substance. If the people dc
not take warning in time, government
over which they have little control will pos
sess itself of full power over all the rights
dearest to man. This Capitalization of pow
er is the growth of despotism. Its Inn
mense patronage, and vast pecuniary ex
penditure, gives the central government
power to carry almost any measure it re
solves on. Hence fugitive slave laws, re
peal of compromises, Nebraska bills, an(
Dred Scott decisions. Hence, also, the CO
hort of servitors who shout amen to every
encroachment on the rights of the states
and the people.

that the Democratic party Of Michigan Is

fore the reign of Fusionism will cease. Al

Walker who few months since went
out to Nicaragua with the intention Of sub
DUNG the whole country, to his rule, estab-
fishing himself President and making the
slavery institution tho law irrevocable, has
found that the "barbarians" were too strong
for him. After several months fighting,
and tho loss Of five thousand Of his

General Walker capitulated and with his
staff, fled or were banished the country

hope he will keep his word and go. All
Of his ilk can be spared.
From statement made by Gen. HEM

following particulars of Walkers retirement
are given:
Gen H. followed Walker and his fortunes to
the last. Walker had been entrcnched at
Rivas, but on the llth of April Gen. Mora,
at the head Of the allies, made an attack
on the town, but was repulsed with great
loss, leaving l03 prisonersin in Walkers hands,
The Fillibuster5 were in constant hopes Of
reinforcements by way of the San Juan
river, but finally began to despair Of help,
when they heard that Capt. Davis of the
American sloop of war st. Mary, had seiz-
ed a largo quantity of Walkers ammuni-
ton, IN transit. Then the proposition to
retire from the country was entertained, and
Capth. Davis of the St. Mary proceeded to
the scat of war, and Walker and his men
surrendered to him as United States Off
Ger. Ono of the Costa Rican generals at
tended Walker and his staff through the
lines of the enemy, as guarantee for their
safety. Tho women and children, number.

More Arrearages.

The Messenger in its manufacture of fig
ures is totally ignorant of the following
enormous amounts squandered by the late
Locofoco administration of Ohio, and which
have been and still are to be payed off by
the Republicans. The Ohio State Journal
of the 29th ays:-"Y yesterday we showed
from the official report that the Medill ad-
ministration left as legacy to the Repub-
lican party, outstanding debts, for the pay
mcnt of which no appropriation whatever
had been made, of $515, 5,915.75. Upon
inquiry this morning at the Auditors office,
we find that the above figures only repre-
sent the amount Of the Medill debts which
were actually paid by the Republican ad-
ministration during the year 1855. There
are yet outstanding and unpaid of these
Medill debts upwards of one hundred hous-
and dollars, which the Legislature at its
late session had to provide ways and means
to settle and pay of. Such are few O.
the facts connected with our State finance:
when the Medill dynasty was driven out
and the Republican administration came in
