The ARTISTS REUSioN.-Ihe Artlsts Reunon on

guests-snd lively, happy intercourse was the insp-
ration Of the place
In the necessarily hurried regard of landscapes
views, fruit pieces woodland scenes, portraits and
animal pieces which the occasion compelled, brough
away confusion of delicious colOring, perfect drawing,
and natural effects, which however sweet is not help
fu of Just criticism. Perhaps it is well that i. is so.

friends by body Of artists with their pictures en-
circlirg the walls Of their reception as an adorn
ment and portion, too of their scheme of impartipS
pleasure, is properly open to note.tsSing by an art
critic, and suitable subject for newspaper comment.
II we felt at full liberty 20 single out any of the pieces

Gently called a convention, to be composed Of

and deeply feel thai slavery is our nations

tightening the Christian energies of the State

is the strong language which is employed to
convey the sentiments q she antiors Of this

Is it True /!

We have the authority of gentleman di-
rect from East Mississippi, for saying that Col.
Pettus declared in one of his late speeches
over there, that in the event of his election to
the Governorship and Black Republican
should be elected to the Office Of President Of
the United States, he would await some hos
tile demonstration towards the South before
advising resistance. Our authority is gen.
tleman every way worthy of credence, and we
wish to know distinctly whether or not this is
eractly the position of the aspirant for Guber-
material honors. = Kcksb,9g Wing.
The informant of the Wing is clearly in er-
ror. Col. Pettus at all times and places, in
his public speeches and private conversations
in his open declarations to the people at the
hustings and In his councils with friends, de-
-ciares wIrn0ut reservation or qualification his
approval of the platform of the Convention
that nominated him pledging the State to re-
sistance in the event of the election Of a Black
Republican to the Presidency upon the ayow-
ed purposes of the anti-slayery organization.
In his speech at Scooba, in his own county,
on the 9Th instant he went so far as to de-
clare, according to the DeKalb Democrat,
whose editor was present and reported his re-
marks that "although he noto held, as it ,0ere,
the Chief Magistraey Of the State an has hands,
he sooud freely give it up, and retire from the
oa,iuass, If he thought the people ioould not sus-
tain him IN strong resistance to tie inaugauo-
ton Of Black Republican President"
Let there be no mistake about the position
Of Col. Pettus and his associates on the DEM
ocratic ticket. They are making the issue
hiriy and squarely, upon the platform of the
July Convention, believing with Mr.. Fillmore
in his Albany speech of 1856, that the South
would not and ought not to submit to be gov
erned by Chief Magistrate elected by the
suffages of one part of the Union to rule over
the whole United States. When the people
vote IN October, we shall accept the result as
their verdict upon this vital issue.

Sovereigns and Subjects.

It is singular to what extent nations have
submitted to be ruled by foreign dynasties'
The Norman in England was succeeded by
the Scottish Stewarts, followed by William of
Holland and the German Georges.
At the present moment German race is on
the throne of England, and another Leopold
upon that of Belgium and third otho upon
tn It of Greece. Sardinia is governed by the
House of Savoy, which is French. Tuscany
and the other Duchies by Austrians. The
Kings of Sweden are French. The issue OF
the House of Bourbon, deposed in France,
reign in Spain and Naples. German blood
predominates in the royal family of Russia,
and the heir of a Corsican reigns in France.
The right of expatriation seems to be accord
ed by Europe to its Sovereigns and why not
to its subjects ? Certainly it should be to our
subjects who are all soyereigus. Bat@whata .
commentary it is on the cry Of Italians ruling
Italy !; Germans, Germany, thus to see, by a
universal transposition, every Nation governed
by foreigner In the new Confederation of
Italy every State will be represented by for
eigner, except Corsica, which is owned by
France, and will not be represented at all.
