Hon. j. ]. McRae, of Mississippi has been nominated
for Congress the successor of Gen. Quitman In
cepting the nomination, which not accompanied by
platform of principles, Gov Mcfae says
1t may DO well for to say, however, that the car
dnal principle with myself in reference to the powers Of
the federal government is that they must be exercised in
all its departments within the strict limitations of the
written charter That these powers find their origin and
limit in the constitution of the United States that with
out the constitution there is Unon and that the
sttutonal may be destroyed well by the
consolidation of its powers by their dissoluton1a
well by the unlimited federation of the States by their
total separation and that when the issue is between these
alternatives growing out of sectional interests and ire
concabic collision between the different social systems of
people, prefer the latter
This position embraces the sentiment which find so
well expressed in resolution of the primary meeting in
Claiborne county to appoint delegates to the Brookhavcn
convention
:" That repudiate as erroneous and injurious the
notion that statesmen should know North
South but the contrary, that their duty to know
both sections and wrong neither that impartial and
ready justice ought to be the only rule of the federal
government and that the State liberties must and shall
be preserved, even at the sacrifice of the Union
'Upon this position all southern ought to unite
without distinction OF party and upon it they ought to
stand or fall :" ~

RUSSIA IN THE MEDITERRANEAN

One of the most interesting facts mentioned in the
last intelligence received from Europe is the an
nouncement that Russia has acquired for a term of
years the port Of Villa Franca thus gaining foot
hold in tho Mediterranean for naval station.
Villa Franco is a small seaport town in the king
dom OF Sardinia, situated short distance from Tho
city of Nice, containing between two and three
thousand inhabitants. The harbor is sheltered by
lofty hills, and is well adapted for the purposes to
which it is to be converted by its new rulers. In
the hands Of the Russians it will doubtless become
one OF their strongholds, rising into military i'm
portanco scarcely less than that of Malta to the
English 1t introduces new element into Euro
pean politics, and new power to the shores of the
Mediterranean. Russian diplomacy manfests itself
not only at the capital of the Flowery Empire, ac
quring vast regions of territory in that quarter of
the globe, but almost Immediately upon the close of
the Eastern war; it gains from one of it's enemies in
that contest naval station within sight of the
shores of France. All this marks the steady sue
cess of Russian policy and diplomacy in spite of the
rivalry and jealousy of tho western powers Rus
STA has not administered upon the estate of the sick
man, but she has stepped in between Constantine
pie and the West and will be ready when the
Turkish Empire falls to pieces, as it certainly will
to exert controlling influence over the disposition
OF the sick mans estate In the mean time the two
castles of Villa Franco will be transformed by its
new occupants into the Notifications Of another Sc

SUBMARINE TELEGRApUINa

The papers announce that the great Cable is again
awake, and, although not sufficiently animated to en-
ter into conversation with the people on either side
of the Atlantic, is nevertheless full of life and ener
gy. We have no doubt that its internal organism is
being prepared for it's future abors 1t is learning
the languages fitting itself for the performance of
its high duties hereafter preparing while doing its
work in the best manner, to set example which ia

daily and hourly communication. The Cable is some
thing more than mere medium of thought--some-
thing moro than stage-driver or conductor Of a
train Its successful operation will bo the signal of
end in the utter humiliation of distance and time
and expense, and bring the whole human family into
close neighborhood one with another
We have everything to gain by its triumph, be-
it happens that position with reference
to the great populations Of the world is isolated.
We are cut off by tho broad Atlantic and Pacific

communication from Yaentia to the British public and

WHO rs TOM CORWINg'--SPEECH or HON
rs JOSEPH MILLER.

AT the large democratic meeting held Mt Chi'cohe
the llth Hon. Joseph Miller of the tenth congressional
district delivered very pertinent and effective speech
We copy as follows from the Chilicote Advertiser of the
18TH:
Mr. Miller addressed the meeting in one of tho best
speeches have ever heard. Every word stabbed If
Tom Corwin had heard our snotce of
Of the prominent facts Of his public life hardly think
he would show his head again in this district Mr..
Miller asked Who is this Mr. Corwin, Who avoiding
the presence of the people whom he asks to give him

instruct you how to and to call to account for
the execution Of trust which hold from you and not
from him am responsible to you, and you alone, for
my conduct representative, and stand ready at all
times to give you faithful and accurate account my
stewardship and to demonstrate the consistency of my
every act in Congress with the principles of the great
democratic party 1t is to you and not to Mr. Corwin,
that this account 1t is as insoent in him to

and surrounded by the foe applied to the for
clothing and provisions Mr. Corwn then United States
SENATOR with all his influence and eloquence opposed the
appropriation and declared he would dollar
for its relief He from his place in the Senate called
upon the enemy to welcome our soldiers with bloody
hands to hospabe graves When his raitorous speech
reached worn-out army in Mexico, his burning eff
gies illuminated the whole American camp. Mr.. Corwin,
while Secretary of the Treasury placed in the hands of
corporation in which he stakeholder one hundred
thousand dollars of the money of the government That
money still remains in the Golfers of the corporation The
government has been unable to collect it, The sam9 Mr..
Corwin assisted Gardiner to defaud the

The whole thing was founded upon fraud and perjury.

THE GOLD FEVER.

We learn from the Omaha Ncbraskian of the stb that
great deal of excitement existed in that vicinity con-
corning the richness of the mines, and says
Having apeculiar aversion for SELLS we determined
to say nothing about the mines unless such evidence was
adduced should permit doubt of the fact We now
have satisfactory evidence that gold exists in large guam
titles not only in the region indicated but for many miles
south, east, and north of It,
An old monntaneer recently arrived at Ralo in the
south part of the Territory, bringing with him sixty
Thousand dollars in gold Dust which no had dug and
washed out near Laramie Peak.
Yesterday man--whose name have forgotten--
arrived in this city from Oregon Territory He left Fort
Laramie the 10th of August and says that little
talked of at the fort but the gold dggings at Laramie
Peak.
He saw numerous specimens of gold, found in that
region, some of which valued high as twenty
five dollars. Several Califomians, who had stopped
few days at the fort started for the mines about the time

laws but slavery ia the Territories should exist il at
all only through the energy Of the constitution as
construed by the courts. Wen admit that that was
the effect of the bin, We do not lhat tho objee-
ton can have any potency that We have the
bred Scott decision, however weghty il might
have been before that decision. For, notwithstand-
ing tho terms of the bill which we have Just quoted
it did contain most admirable provision, which, il
seems TO us, not only meets the grievance of Mr..
Millson, but also refutes the declarations both of
Judge Douglas and Mr.. Orr, in regard to the power
of malicious free-soil maorties and their officials
in the Territories PROSTATE slavery The provision
to which we allude, is that which gives appeal di-
rect to the Supreme Court of the United States, from
the decision Of any Judge of circuit or district
court OF the Territories, upon any question touching
the right of property in slave, however small the
value IN controversy, and upon any writ of habsas
corpus involving the question of personal free
dom. The 9th section of the bill provides that
wrts of error and appeal shal be allowed, and may
be taken to the Supreme Court of the United States
in the same and under the same regulations
from the circuit court of the United States when
the value OF the property or the amount in contro
versy, &C.. &c, &C., shall exceed one thousand dol
lars except only that IN all inpolpng title to saves
the said writ of error appeal shall be allowed and
decided by said Supreme Court tcito,a regard to the
Uaile Of the matter, property title controversy and
crep Also that writ of error or appeal shall also
be allowed to the Supreme Court of the United States
from the decision of the Supreme Court created by
this act or of any judge thereof or of the district
courts created by this act, of any Judge thereof
upon any tcri of habeas corpus nuotviag the question
Of personal freedom. Here are two most important
exceptions created by this bill in the jurisdiction of
the Supreme Court of the United Stateserceptio,,s
not to be found IN any other territorial biA.
We trust that our contemporary. of the Norfolk
Argus, whose sincerity and candor all who know him
respect, will find in what we have said and cited
much to reconcile him to the great measure of egisa-
ton in question: with the integrity and success of
which the fame of the democratic party is indssolu
bly, involved.

success of our system, which is nothing more nor
less than the best-organized industry known TO the
human family. With mere reference to government
independent OF this great end, We claim nothing.
Ours is a government of labor, the primary object
whereof is to absolute equality of rights at
the least possible cost. 1t is government of the
people 1t is, however, perfectly natural that our
very success should excite against us the prejudice
of others 1t has been complete and unparalleled
as to be mistaken for an aggressive movement IN
debted to forcible conquest for its achievements
greater error could hardly be made. Let our enter
prising people, then, construct cable and unite
Cuba to the continent, and through it freely commu-
nicate, aud it viii so very far to the errone-
GUS and unjust Impressions which exist on either side
OF the Gulf stream in regard to the real intentions of
the two governments.
This work is important in a strictly administrative
view We maintain largo squadron in the Cuban
waters 1t is only few months Since that the
WHOLE country was convuIsed with anger at the con-
duct of British cruisers in and about the Havana
Had we possessed the means of instantaneous com
mnncation, available of COURSE to the British lega-
ton in this city much, if not all, of the offensive
conduct of those cruisers might have been prevent
ed. This too, could have been done without the use
of despatch vessels and other costly agencies of the
departments, which have always been serious tax
upon the treasury. We look upon the time, indeed,
as rapidly approaching when the mere facilities for
the transmission of messages will go very far to re-
move the necessity which now exists for the main
tenance Of large naval establishments. This, in view
of our meagre force upon the high seas, is greatly
to be desired.
