Kentucky.

A canvass for Clerk of the Court of APP
peals has been in progress for some time in
Kentucky, the election to take place in Au-
gust. The American candidate is Col. GEO.
r. MCKEE, who resided in this city several
years, and is a lawyer of considerable ability.
The democratic candidate is Il. K. REvuL,
vastly inferior to MCKEE in intellect and as a
speaker. Both are assiduously stumping the
State. though not together. MCKEE, we
learn, sustains the American cause with great
force and vigor; but we note that he has been
80 impolitic as to make the Lecompton Con-
stitution an issue. As the American party in
that State is not united In sentiment on this
subject, it is not improbable that he may
drive from his support such of them as favor
ed the admission of Kansas with the constitu-
tion he condemns. Whether he can gain a
sufficient number of votes from the Anti
Lecompton democrats to make up this loss,
we very much question. The result of the
election, we apprehend. will be disastrous to
his aspirations. We doubt not, the northern
men who are endeavoring TO get up, on the
Kansas issues, new party, which shall en-
brace the South, are looking with considerable
interest to this election. If MCKEE sheald be
successful. it will afford the party manufac-
turers vast deal of encouragement. On the
other hand, his defeat will admouish them
that it is useless to hope for aid from the
South for any party which forms on the basis
of anti-Lecomptonsm.

even Southern men are not united, and the
strongest tests against the institution of slave
ry have been furnished by Southern men.
Nevertheless, slavery in the States. and slave
ry as moral, political question, where it ex-
lists. is subject with which we of the North
have nothing TODD. The Constitution has put
it beyond our control, and we only make it
worse by our manner of agitation, and that
of treating it. 1t would not be difficult for
the fairminded men of the country to agree
to disagree upon the abstract question. We
the South-that is, the extreme men there
are any more willing to give up the slavery
agitation than the sumo class of men at tn
North. 1t is the political meat and drink of
each. and becomes hobby. ridden by the po-
litical iockies of both sections of the country.
The 'let alone principle must be mutual
one. and that all experience teaches us. We
shall never have North or South. There
would have been less of this feeling but for
the repeal of the Missouri Compromise and the
Kansas eXcitement.-boih OF them'measures of
extreme impolicy on the part of the South;
for, previous to the disturbance of a well es-
tablished and long maintained principle OF
compromise, made when Missouri came into
the UniOn,-the large majority of Northern
men were ready to stand by the settlement,
or adjustment, of 1850 as finality. We owe
all our existing troubles to the Pandora's box
opened by the Democratic administrations,
who promised peace and quiet to the country,
and who have broken every bond they made.
Some other parts of our correspondents letter
we may notice in another form.

Letter from Ton. WIN. l.. Yancev

We find in the Atlanta american the fol-
present it as an indication of the disunion
and revolutionary sentiment which pervades
one section of the Southern democracy. Mr..
Y. is one of the most cautious and crcnm-
spect of all that class OF men South who are
termed Fire-eaters. The object is here clearly
to ''precipitate the Cotton States into a revo-
luton" 1t seems to be looked forward to
with eagerness and anxiety by Mr.. Yancey,
as a consummation devoutly to be wished:
MONTGOMERY, 18th June 1853
DEAR SIR:-Your kind favor of the 18th is
received
| hardly agree with you, that general
movement can be made that will clean out the
Augean Stable. If the Democracy were over
thrown, it would result in giving place to
greater and hungrier swarm of flies.
The remedy of the South is not in such
process. 1t is in diligent organization of
her true men, for prompt resistance to the
next aggression. 1t must come, in the nature
of things No National Party can save us;
no Sectional Party can do it. But if we could
do as our fathers did, organize Committees of
Safety all over the Cotton States, (and it is
only in them that we can hope for any etfec
tive mOvement,) we shall fire the Southern
heart-instruct the Southern mind--give
courage to each other. and at the proper mo-
ment, by one organized, concerted action, we
can precipitate the Cotton States into revo-
luton.
The idea has been Swallowed forth in the
South by Mr. Ruffin-has been taken up and
recommended in the Advertiser, under the
name Of League of United Southerners,' who,
keeping up their OLD party relations on all
other questions, will hold the Southern issue
paramount, and will influence parties. legis-
iatures and statesmen. | have no time TO en-
large; but suggest merely.
In haste, yours, &c,
W l.. YANCEY.

wash.

The editor of the American Agris7iltVria says
he has tried various preparations for Whit
washing ceilings, and the walls of unpapered
rooms but has never found any thing that was
entirely satisfactory until the present Spring.
He has now something that affords beauti-
full, clear, white color, and which cannot
be rubbed Off and which he prepares in this
wise:
I'VE procured at a paint store a dollars
worth of first quality Pans UhIe'-33 lbs,
al three cents per lb.--and for this quantity
one pound of white glue of the best quality
usually called Cooper's glue, because manu-

day 5 work. half pound of glue was put in
"a tin vessel. aud covered with cold water
over night. In the morning this care
fully heated until dissolved, when il was adj
,led TO 10 lbs. OF the Paris white, previously
stirred in moderate quantity of hot water.

whole proper milky consistency, when il
was applied with brush ia the ordinary
manner. Our S3 lbs. OF Paris white and |

walls aud ceilings OF seven other small
rooms.
"A single coat is equal to a double coat OF
lime wash, while the white Is far more bril-
liant than lime. Indeed. the color is nearly
equal to that OF Zinc White which costs at
ast four times as much. We are satisfied,
by repeated trials, thai no whliewash can be
made TO adhere firmly without glue, or some
kind OF sizing. and this will invariably be

We pretend to no familiarity with the de-
tails of this controversy in Illinois. We only
know that the anti-Lecompton Democrats
want to reunite the party, and that they are
repealed by an unnecessary exhibition of re-
sentiment. We understand, if this policy, is
to prevail, that the Northern Democracy WI
be irrepdrabte diUidef upon an obseIne issue; and
the succession secured to the Black Republi-
can party. We have right in the interest
of the South, to protest against the folly of
such intolerance. We have right, in the
interest of the Democracy, to forbid the waste
of the inheritance by persons in possession
RicimOnd South
The South is one of the ablest supporters of
the Leconlpton Constitution amongst the Vir
ginia Democracy. 1t is significant that such
journal should regard the issue as ''obso-
lete," and reprove the attempts to break down
the Douglas faction in Illinois.
