BOLIVAR, July %, 1851.
MEssRs EDIToRs AT the invitation of the citi-
zens of Hardeman county, Governor johnson visited
Bolivar to-day to mingle with his fellOw-citizens,
partake of their inequalities, receive their greet
ings, which were most cordial, and give them his
views upon the condition of the State and the Union,
and Of the aspects of parties The Governor was
accompanied by Hon. A. o. P. Nicholson, whose
presence amongst the gallant and staunch democrat
cy of Hardeman was most welcome. A very large
crowd was present on the occasion, not less than
$500, a large portion of which were the fair daugh
tiers and diguifed matrons of this and the adjoining
counties. Gov. johnson being in delicate health,
and his energies having been overtasked by two
lengthy speeches the previous day at Raleigh aud
Memphis Mr.. Nicholson delivered the first speech.
For an honr and half or more he held the vast
crowd rivited by his powerful arguments to their
reason and their patriotism. At this writing have
not the time to give sketch, not even an idea of
his eloquent, calm and statesman-iike address.
The democracy here are in raptures with him
When he had finished the Governor arose amid
defening peals of applause, and proceeded to ad-
dress the people. But he had not proceeded more
than three quarters of hour ere he was by physi-
cal prOstration compelled to cut short his remarks
He speaking with great power and effectiveness,
as only Andrew johnson can, when taken i'll and
obliged to close.
In the afternoon, Gen. P. B. Glenn, of Fayette,
addressed large number at the Court House, only
. portion of his speech had I an opportunity of
hearing. .-......
Old Hardeman is wide-awake, and will, as usual,
render good account of herself. In this Congress
siona district Avery win be elected, and think we
shall be able to make several gains to the Legisa-
ture.
Tomorrow Gov. Jones and others will be at La
Grange where we are to have magnificent meeting;
and on next Saturday Ned Yerger and others are to
speak to a mass meeting at Middleburg. The gallant
Little Red mean D. NJ. Currin-will on the same
day be at Hickory Wythe Look out for thunder
from the wales and cotton fields of West Tennessee.
In haste, yours, HARDEMAN.

pSs~ The two principal hobbies which Know
Nothingism has introduced into this canvass, have
been the waste OF the public lands and the encourage

TELEGRAPH TO CUBAN international treaty be-
tween the United States and Spain allows Geographic
communication to be made between the United States
and Cuba and in iurlherance of plan to secure
such connection via Florida. general law was
passed by that State and approved by the Governor
Dec. 9th, 1856 providing for the organization of
company TO carry out the enterprise proposed.
The Cuban government has made the necessary
concession, and the ratification of the home govern
ment is only needed to warrant the commencement
of the work, which will require but six months for
its completion. We understand that the requisite
funds are already provided.

LET IT NOT BE FORGOTTEN.

That Mr.. Bell in speech at Murfreesboro in
September, 1S46, endeavored reconcile the Wings
to the nomination of Gen. Taylor over Henry Clay,
and said
Ia the very nature ofthings, the questions of the
Tariff, United STATES Bank, the subTreasury, DIS
tTibutoa &c. eyanesoent transtory, and in gen
Grafton or less time will pass away. lSrRlBU-
TON FOR INSTANCE HAS CEASED TO BE A
QUESTION. Tie Lands may nor be considered
PLEDGED for the payment of tbeNATlONAL DEBT,
aud under the continued emigration of millions FROM
Europe and from other causes, they will soon cease
to exist as q national domain"
Let it not be forgotten that about eighteen months
after this declaration was made, Mr.. Dayton of New
Jersey introduced into the Senate proposition to
revive Mr. Clays Distribution bill of 1884, and Mr..
Bell, regarding the Lands as pledged for the
payment of the public debt voted with the Democrat
ggaiastit See Congress. Globe part list, Slst Cong.
p. 900.
Let it not be forgotten that Mr.. Fillmore in his
message of 1852, says:
"By the 18th section of the act of the 2Sth jan
uary ls47, the proceeds of the sales of the public
lands PLEDGED J0F einterest dHdPriHcpat Of the
public debt"
The following is the section of the act to which
Mr. Fillmore refers:
SEC. 49, That for the payment Of the stock which
may be created under the provisions Of this act THE
SALES OF THE PUBLIC LANDS ARE HEREBY
PLEDGED; and it is hereby made the duty of the
Secretary Of the Treasury to use and apply ALL
moneys which may be received into the Treasury for
the SALES OF THE PUBLIC LANDS, after the lst
day of January 1913, first to pay the interest on all
stock issued by virtue OF this act; and secondly to
the balance of said receipts, after paying the
interest aforesaid in the purchase of said stocks at
their market value, &C.
A portion of the debt for which this act
pledged the public lands, is not due until 1877,
aud until that is paid, the faith of the nation is
plighted to their use for its liquidation.

is no doubt. But if his majority falls materially

"WAR DEPARTMENT, I
" Washington, April IA, 1854.

Sir: YoUr remarks in rela
ton to unlawful expeditions sailing from the coast
of California suggests the propriey of referring you
to your instructions upon the subject. 1t was not
expected desired that the mit0ry commander should
do than belongs to the ordinary relations of the
ciUH and military poSoers and in nstructing you to
aid the civil authorities it not intended that you
should originate arrests and prosecutions for eril
misdeaedHors. You will readily perceive that con-
sequences injurious the public service would prob
ably follow from such interference by the military
with the functions of civil authorities
This most singular and extraordinary letter was
no less to for the part acted in breaking
up the hllibustering schemes of Walker, Watkins,
Emory, and OF the French and Mexican Consuls,
than it nnllifed the Seeretarys own instructions,
which required me to maintain our own interna-
tonal obligations, by preventing unlawful expedi-
tons against the territories of foreign powers and
the Presidents proclamation which required all of
icers, civil and military to use any efforts which
may be in their power arrest for trial and punish
ment every such offender
AFTER receiving this letter, Col. Walker, appre-
hensive that l might interfere with his expedition
then preparing for Central America, called on me,
as he said, to satisfy that he not engaged in
any unlawful or fllibustering scheme. simply re-
marked in reply, that, with the instructions had
recently received from the Secretary of War, wheth-
er or not he was engaged in any such enterprise,
had no authority 10 interfere with him-certainly
not until was called upon by the civil authorities
to aid in suppressing it.
The above explanation and facts seem to be ll-
ed for by VIM. Walkers letter to the President, in
order to show why it that did not interfere TO
prevent his expedition to Central America, the OBJ
jec Of which, declared by its friends at the time
was to conquer several States in that region, and
form them into an independent slave cOnfederacy.
s. am, very respectfully, your obedient servant,
