FROM WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, August 26.-.The Hon. Pierre
Soue reached here this morning from the South
en- route for New York, where, it is understood
he is to have an interview with Gen. Wm Walker,
touching Central American affairs. He will re-
mnin here only short time, to feel the pulse -o'
The Administration. 1t is believed by those who
have some means of information, that Gen. Walker
has his eye now upon Yucstan, with view to an
eventual decent upon Cuba. Mr.. Soule spent sew.
oral days at Old Point Comfort, and, / learn,
whilst there, was in close communion with the
with E1-President Tyler.
Mr.. Soule expresses the confident opinion that
the Democracy can alone succeed in 1860, with
Senator Douglas as their nominee for the Presi.
dency, and that there is but one opinion In his
State as to the course of the Washington Union.
He says while the Democracy of Louisiana con.
demn the unnatural war upon Judge Douglas,
they regard the editorials Of the Union as tending
to secure his election in Illinois, and his nomina
ton at Charleston.
The recent movements of Southern politicians,
looking to the compact organization of the Demo.
cratic party, have not given US the occasion for
serious concern. Trusting in their tried fidelity
to the South, we have been disposed to give them
sample room and verge enough" to make the
most extensive maneuvres. But Mr.. SoULE is
clearly outside of our reckoning His range is
entirely too extensive. Judge DOUGLAS will not
be nominated at Charleston. The South has swal-
lowed many bitter pill, but that dose would stop
in transitu, most assuredy Ifsuch be Mr.. SoULE's
programme, we trust he will complete his ar.
rspgements with the ''grey.eyed man Of destiny,
and turn his attention to Yucatan exclusively.

JUDGE SMITH.

Our columns are seldom enriched by contribu-
ton more note. worthy than the truthful and spir-
tied sketch of Judge WILLIAM SMITH, kindly sent
to us by Judge O'NRALL. Such kindness is al.
most beyondprice with us. The name Of Judge
SMITH is yet familiar to the people of York Dis.
whom he made war in times of feuee excitement
have almost passed away, all are disposed to &C.
cord to him the almost peerless rank to which his
greatness entities him, and to ensirine his memo
ry, ilustrious and venerable, as seritage Of sur.
passing worth And all will, therefore, unite IN
sending thanks to Judgel ONEAtI for the oppor-
tunity of learning of Judge s41rH, 80 much and
so we'll.
The letter accompanying tie sketch, is publish
ed with view to elicit additional facts from the
few remaining cotempotsfes Of Judge Smith
We know that much yet femains to be written of
him; and if his old friends are not ready to take
up their own pens, ours are at their service and
will obey their dictation cheeffully.
After leaving Yorkville, Judge SMITH removed
directly to Huntsville, Alabama He conduct
ed large planting interests in Louisiana, which
he owned before leaving South Carolina, and
in addition, large portion Of his estate was
invested in the culture of cotton, in other sections
Of Alabama. But his home was in Huntsville,
where he died, suddenly, of congestive fever. on
the 2Gth day of June ls4o-aged 7s years.
When we have collected materials, we shall re-
cur to this interesting subject.

THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH,

The first dispatches by the Atlantic Submarine
Telegraph are published in another column, ver-
battm. They reached Columbia in less than "a

For the South, these great events will work the
most beneficial results. Besides opening q great

PRINTER,S RIGHTS.

The Luurensville Herald very justly complain
that country editors are expected to provide ve-
hicle for advancing the interests of individuals or
societies without any compensatiup whatever. The
Herald is right, and we hope its suggestion will
be acted on-that the country papers should unite
in iustituting new rule, and require everything
thst is intended for personal benefit or advance
ment, to be paid for. In no other vocation, in the
whole world Of labor, are there so many demands
for gratuites, as from editors and publishers Let
the matter be taken up in earnest by the Press,
and let its conductors 60 to work and root out the
evil.-Guardian.
Nothing is easier. For several years, our paper
was published for every body's benefit. and the
columns usedby every body at our expense. A
month or two ago, however, cur publisher conclu-
ded to change the order of things, and to charge
at reguisr rates for a,l communications "of limi-
tied or individual interest" The rule has been
rigidly enforced; and we have met with but one
man who refused to acknowledge the justice Of it.
Our friends pay the tax cheerfully, and so will all
liberal minded men wherever the rule is firmly
established; and strictly adhered to. Try it on,
friend Herglas There is no need for ''united ac-
tion," in the premises.

MIR. BoYcE,s ULTIn1ATUm.

Mr.. Boyce, in his Yorkvile speech, said that
if an Abolitionst were elected President, it would
be madness in US to await the final blow. "Rc-
sistance," he said, would necessarily involve all
the South, occurring it would in the midst of ex.
treme evaporation. The result would be a new
confederacy or On amendment of the Constitution,
disposing of the slavery question forever"
Even should there be no general movement the
Edgefeld Advertiser does not think it would be
unwise or impractical for three or two States to
make the movement. 1t says:
Suppose these TWO States to be Mississippi aud
Alabama, or Georgia and South Carolina. Imag-
inc either of these combinations formed, its pur-
poses defined, and active steps in progress 10 con-
summste its objecr. Conceive the excitement that
must at once spread like forest fire over the en-
tire country Go further, and read in anticipa-
ton the solemn covenant by which the acting SOW.

other for veal or for woe. See their appeal, glow
ing with eloquence and patriotism, to their CO..
States of the South Pursue the vindication Of
their course before the country and the world

preparations, as a new power, 80 live and not to

which, having initiated the step of disunon, they
avow their determination to maintain it to the last
dire issue of battle, if need be. Could Mississippi
and Alabama-or could Georgia and South Caro-

and hostile government-could they, We ask, by
