WORKING Powers OF THE PRssrDENT.-A
Washington correspondent Of the Philade!.
phla Press, writes:
"As Mr. Buchanan attends to all impor-
tant matters himself, giving even to details
his personal attention, he will go TO hard
work now that he has returned from Bed
ford, Pa. During his long and active life, he
has been remarkable for regular habit of
increasing toll. Even IN his retirement at
Wheatland, he was n close student and an
early RISER. During his residence at the Brit
ish Court, he reformed the heaviest duties
himself. The number of letters and papers
he writes, without the mid of nmnnurnsis
now, is legion. Reading without spectaclcs,
and giving t. every subject prompt and care
full analysis, he is n wonder to his cabinet,
several of " HON knew but little of him till
thus thrown in connection with him. Rising
ut almost dawn, and telling late, he gives
to his high office the conscientious fidelity
and patience which have marked his career
from the day when. nearly forty years ago,
he took his seat in the national council"

THE SANcTITY OF AN OATH.-"A. H.
Stephens says that the Know Nothing Or.
der, by adopting secret oaths in political
organization, has destroyed the sanctity of
an oath, and weakened all the obligations
among men in this county. When truth
loses caste with any proplc-is no longer
considered n virtue--nnd its dniy and hourly
violations are looked upon with no concern
but jeer or n laugh, it requires but little
forecast to see what will very soon be the
character of the people, Nashville Union.
The Memphis Eagle and Enquirer replies
to the above rs follws:
"Ir the sanctity of onths has been destroy
ed, the Democracy are the destroyers. Who
advised the people to break their oaths, and
to what party, do the onth.breakers now
belong? If truih has lost caste, the Dpmoc-
racy assaulted it and are responsible. From
the way Stephens talks, one may reasonably
infer that he regards those who have broken
their oaths and gone back to the Democracy,
MS perjurers. If he is sincere in so regard
ing them, in what sort of predicamrnt does
he stand? Let his conscience answer"

TIE LATE SOUTHERN CONVENTION. - The
Lynchburg virginan is most thoroughly dis.
gusted with the proceedings Of the late South.
ern Convention at Knoxville. We published
an extract from its columns last week we
give another one below. It says:
This great misnomer and huge abortion,
after projecting some things and finishing
nothing, adjourned to meet again in Mont.
gomery. Ala, on the second Monday in May
next, where, we suppose, they will have
regular May frolic. We really believe that
this take it all in all was the most arrant
humbug and miserable failure df all thgt
have gone before it; and, as we stated yes.
terday, sincerely trust we shall never have
another such insufferable nuisance. We op.
oppose from this time forth, all such efforts
to bring the South into ridicue and contempt.
There were not righteous men enough in
Sodom to save that devoted city, nor were the
few good men and true who were in the late
Convention--most of whom, we dare say, will
never go to anoiher--enough to prevent il
from resulting in a ridiculous farce. In al
dition to what we have gathered from the
published reports OF its proceedings, we have
been informed by gentlemen who were pres
ent, and who had also attended the previous
Conventions, that this was the weakest and
idlest Of them all-tbat there was no dispo-
sition manifested to do any thing but to frit.
ter away time in protitless debates for bun
comb. And this lie our belief. We would
not give, considering it's present and pros.
pective results, one such Convention as that
lately assembled at Bristol, composed of tho
officers of various internal improvement CON-
panies, with few other practical men. for
thousand such assemblies as that a, Knoxville.
We have no doubt they had good time of it
in contributing, however reluctantly, to the
completion of the western end of the East
Tennessee and Virginia Railroad, (the only
practical thing they did, and fensting at the
expense Of the citizens Of Knoxville, and
trust that they may be equally fortunate
when they rendezvous at Montgomery.
