GENERAL WALKER.

Gen. William Walker visited Columbus,
Miss, a few days since, and was enshusias-
tically received there. In bis speech to
the citizens, he more distinctly and emphat-
ically referred to the fllibustering propo-
sition made to him by the Admins ira
ton which Judge Compbell had refused to
allow him to prove or even allude to2 A
correspondent of the Mobile Mercury
gives the following report of General Wal
ker's speech:
Gone part of the Generals address told
with deadly effect on his enemies. He
stated and assured the audience that posi-
tive evidence was at hand, within his con-
troll and reach, that Mr.. Buchanan, while,
for political purposes of his own, charg-
ing him with high political crimes, with
piracy and outlawry, was himself the Gull
prit, and through his Secretary Of War
sent an ambassador to him, saying that if
he would fore 60 the Nicaraguan enter
prise and engage in the service of Mexico,
and while in that service do some act, such
as tearing down the flag of spain, render
- VOL bOs"OSh Opdiu anu AuOAtcO AucN-
table, he (Wslker) would receive the coun-
tenance and support of the Administra-
ton.
General Walker said this proposition
was received with contempt, and he assur-
ed his hearers that if he had been actuated
by the baser motives of public men, the
Administration, in its anxiety to crush
slavery in Central America, had disgraced
itself, the country and mankind, by endeav-
oring to make him an instrument in fomen-
ting war between two powers now at peace
With the fervor and FIRE Of the truest and
most elevated patriotism, he declared that,
as all his misfortunes had commenced in
Nicaragua from the establishment of sla-
very in that region, he would continue
fDithful to his native South, and he called
on tie brave and the true in the land to
give him their sympathy and support
"You can imagine how such disclosure,
and the accompanying appeal was received
Scorn for the Pauldings and their secret
instructions, was lost in admiration for the
gallant bearing Of General Walker through
out this humiliating business enemies be-
come friends, and here, at least, the cause
Of Nicaragua is now in the ascendant"

M. FELIX BELLY.-This is the gentle
man who it is said has secured the right
for the construction of a canal across the
Isthmus. The New York Tribune of
Wednesday has the following in regard to
Mr.. Belly and his project:
We had yesterday the pleasure of an in
teryiew with M. Felix Belly, the gentleman
whose recent movements n..Centrall Amer
lea have caused some stir in naval circles.
But we think that the gentlemen who
have anticipated the sending of feet to
exclude M. Belly and the French Protect
crate from Central America have been
rather precipitate in their ideas. NJ Bel
ly is merely pacific Spectator, who, with
vast capital to back him, proposes to dig
canal across the Isthmus. OF tht feast
bility of this enterprise he speaks with alb
solute and enthusiastic confidence. Il is
no more difficult, he thinks, than the pieB-
cling of Mount Gems, OF than dozen other
ACHIEVEMENTS of modern engineering. Nor
does he see why the American people or
their government should view the enter
prise with jealousy. For the practical
work of digging the canal, New York
must be the starting point. Here the req
uisite machinery, the boats, the instru-
ments, the FORCES, in short the whole mate
rial OF the work must be procured; her
supplies must be laid in fes the workmen;
here the numerous arsay Of special assist,
ants and agents must be engaged. In fact,
for the mere commencement, the company
must expent here some 5000, 900 or 3OO,-
900; and che subsequent expenditure, as
the work advances, must also be heavy and
constant Besides, when the canal is done
it will be immensely more beneficial to A
merican commerce than to that Of any 9th
er nation. Why then should we be dis
turbed at the prospect of its construction
M. Belly goes back to Europe to-day in
the Persia. He intends to return here in
no great length of time, when he will take
steps for the actual commencement Of the
canal He is apparently person of re-
markable energy of character, and if he
will only make the canal we can promise
him as much immortality as any single in
dividual ought to enjoy.

DIsAsTRoUs.--A deplorable calamity
happened last week in Marshall co., Ky.
A tree on the farm Of Mr.. Thomas Reed
was struck by lightning. Two sons Of Mr..
Reed were instantly killed, and two others
were severely injured, one Of whom is not
expected to recover. Two horses were also
killed by the stroke Louisville Journal.

Bay The Louisville journal says the
democrats Of thai city, have received direct
from Washington, plan of organization
precisely siailaT to, that Of the Know
Nothings, which they have so long de-
nounced. To the Infamous duplicity of
such conduct there would be much loss
objection, were it the object Of that
organization to protect the rights of native
citizens against the encroachment of
foreign influence, And if there be treason
in secret association of natives for poll
teal cooperation, how much greater the
treason when foreigners are thus leagued
together, conspiaiag against the rights of
the natives

pa" The disunionists of the South de-
nounce the democratic administration, and
the English Lecompton swindle, and one,
not posted, would infer that they could
never again be persuaded to vote with the
locofoco party; but this is altogether a
mistake, They have been playing this
same game for years and when packed
Convention imposes upon them rotten
northern candidate for the Presidency they
become inpatient, So eager ans they tOvobe
for him. The explanation Of this dishonest
inconsistency is easy. They know that
locofocoism Will dissolve the UniOar-dhat
its villainy can have no. Othar effect, and
for its villainy they uphold 10. Nothing
is more revolving 10 them than the idea of
saving the Union and hence their opposir
ton to any honest party.
