The Evidence becomes More Conclusive.

Our readers may recolleet, remarks the Natchez
Free Trader. leading Democratic paper in Missis-
sippi, that few days since we furnished them with
pretty strong proofs that the inaugural of Gov Walker
was written out before he left Washington and sub
mitted to the President and Cabinet, and that his
course was in fact shaped and directed by them.
Since then we have received from Washington
pamphlet, entitled san Appeal to the Democracy Of
the South, devoted to defense of Walker and the
administration. 1t professed to be from Southern
State Rights Democrat The Georgia papers do not
hesitate to ascribe it to the pen Of the Hon. Howell
Cobb, Secretary Of the Treasury. The Griffin Union
says:
We are at no loss to trace It's authorship. The
able in this appeal, indeed the writer gives us to
understand in the outset that he has access to true
official information" as Secretary Of the IT,

From this appeal continues our Natchez cotem-
porary, we extract the following in reference to
Walker, and his endorsement by the administration
Having accepted Of the appointment under these

It must be continually remembered that Governor
Walker was acting, and acting SOLELY under the in
strctiOns of the President of the United States with
the appreciation Of his Cabinet.
The foregoing corroborates the statements made by
us numerous occasions, that Walkers betrayal of
the South in Kansas was, and would be, sanctioned
and endorsed by the very President whom the South
had, almost exclusively, placed at the head of our
national affairs. Well, the past cannot be helped,
but the future may be provided for. The future can
be provided for but that provision only be made
on the basis Of a union of the Southern people for
the sake of the rights honor and interests Of the
Southern people-by discarding names and graspng
substances, by repudiating shadows and taking hold
of tangible realities
