Mr.. EDI1oR:-A little friend Of ours Was reading
. paper the other day, which he said he had sub
scribed for at the solicitation Of friend We asked
him to let US look at the paper which ne found to
be religious JanaticaI abolition sheet called "he
Well Spring" published in Boston by the Msssachu-
sets Sunday School Society," and edited by Rev. Asa
Billiard. We copy the following from its columns
for example:
1.-THE Secretary Of the Massachusetts, Sunday
School Society, writing from the West says: We
find very strong and almost universal interest here
the West the subject Of training the young to
right feelings in regard to the oppressed Al IN
expression Of this interest among the members Of
the late Sabbath School Convention at Racine, the
following resolution was unanimously adopted:
Resolred That it is the united sentiments Of this
Convention, that astislasery iteratsrs. such -
the gospel begets Is ssential to the complete de.
velopment Of christian character, through the Sab
bath Schools Of our land" 800.
The same paper states that Il can and win speak
freely on the subject Of slavery and that the publ
cations Of the Massachusetts, Sunday School Society
securing IN extensive and increasing demand On
this account. 49, r.-....-s .r..
Now is this not shrewd way for the Northern
religious fanatics to SOW the seeds Of antisave9y
sentiments in the bosom Of the youths Of the South
Why will Southern parents allow their children to
support and read such sheets q THE Well Spring
Win the Southern people never Be wsrnedl How
many Harper's Ferry outragcs will Il take to make
them open their eyes to the doings Of the religious
fanatics Of the Northi
- Parents, guardians, tsachers look to your inter.

e No matter what the national Democracy
may do omit to do they cannot please our neigh
Dor Of the Register, or those who think with him.
If they defeat the Opposition" in the free States,
neighbor complains; and if they Gail to defeat
the Opposition, IS in the recent elections in New
York, he also complains. He asks, "why did not
the Democracy rally to the polls and manifest their
sympathy for the South and indignation at Browns
outrage by defeating the Republican partyr' They
did rally; the State was thoroughly and ably can
ussed the Democratic press, Mr.. Dickinson, and
hosts of other true men, on the stump, among the
people, in public and in private exerted themselves
the utmost to defeat the Republican party. and to
impress the people of the free States with the fact
that black Republican majorites would he regarded
in the South as majorities for Seward, old John
Brown and other traitors. They were aided too, to
some extent, by the Americans of New York, who
voted for some of their candidates but every effort
was unavang to rescue the State from the grasp
Of Sewardism. Still many thousands of votes were
upolled, and the "culpable apathy" Of which the
Register complains lift existed at all existed main
y in the ranks of the old line Wings and Ameri-
cans Where was Mr.. Fillmore? Did he raase his
voice and manifest his sympathy for the South on
the occasion? He was silent If he even voted,
the fact is not known
But We are not disposed to reproach any party or
action which claims to be conservative, for the re-
suit in New York. We hope it may be different
and BETTER when the people come to vote finally, in
1850 between the national Democratic and the black
Republican parties. But however that may be, the
Editor Of the Register knows as well as we do, that
the only grounds Of hope for defeating Seward and
saving the Union are to Re found in the Democratic
party. -....
It's therefore, unjust and ungenerous in him, t.
say the least to hold the Democrats responsible fc'

he result Of their devotion to Southern rights

Hard 90 Please.

The sham democratic organs in this State
have occupied their columns for several
months with charges of intended fusion
between the Opposition of the South and the
black republicans OF the North. Gov Harris
went 20 far as to say in his opening speech
here, that the marriage had already been
solema!zed. Since that groundless sssump-
tion has been thoroughly exploded. aud since
the developments in Virginia. Kentucky and
Tennessee have caused che New York Herald

sition is 10 ''cut under the Southern Demo

The scheme of the Southern Opposition now
is to carry as much local strength in
the South as possible, without the
slightest prospect of commanding an infiusn-
tial national party, which may control the
Federal Government or carry the election OF
1860. What then becomes of all the Opposi-
ton schemes of reforming the government
and rctrenching its expenditures? Where
are the boasts of the Opposition that they
will bring the country back to its pristine
purity?-Mcmphis APpeaI.
We warn the appeal not to indulge its
fluctuations too soon. The reduction of the
national conservative Opposition to an in
significant faction, as it desires no doubt,
would not, probably, have the effect TO per
petuate the power of the "spoils party" That
party has already a minority President, and
il is not certain that, in sweeping from ex-
istence the Southern opposition. You would not
at the same time sweep from the high places
OF power and plumber the democratic party.
The DIES tructon of the Southern Opposition
might, in that event, prove most signal
misfor une to that party, which is distinguish
above all others for hot lust for power and
place andis theleast scrupulous of the means
necessary to obtain them.

THE TERMINATroN OF THE MoRPHY- THoMP-
SON CoNTEsT.-Tbis important chess encoun-
ter was terminated on Friday afternoon at
the rooms of the New York Chess Club, by
the victory OF Mr.. Morphy the score standing:
Morphy 5; Thompson 8, drawn 1. This
achievement of the youthful chess champion
may be placed even above that of any of his
EurOpeon feats. In the first place he gives
the heavy odds of knight in all his games;
in the second place he gives them 10 one of
the New-York Illustrates, who has been accus-
toned to profier the same advantage to COM
paratively strong PLAYERS for many years;
and, finally, his adversary has seen tit to play
what is technically known as a close game in
each contest which. in fact, increases the
odds enormously. As far as we can judge
from the published records of their battle, no
player, living or dead, of whom we have any
account, could have given such an advantage
successfully to player OF the skill and ex-
perience of Mr.. Thompson. Mr.. Morphy
dined last Sunday with Robert J. Walker and
party of friends, and was entertained on
Thursday afternoon and evening by the
Brooklyn Chess Club. On this last occasion
he won game of Mr.. Marache, an eminent
player, in which he also gave the odds Of the
knight-N. Y. Tribune.

The charge Retracted.

The Memphis Appeal, of yesterday morning
contained an editorial that surprised us, un-
accustomed to surprise as we are. and will
surprise the whole country. That paper has
covered itself with glory. 1t has dared to do
its political opponents something like justice.
1t has retracted a very grave charge made
by the Southern Democracy against the
Southern Opposition. Read the following
extract form The Memphis ARpoai of June
18th. 1883:
'Mr Snecd has taken bold and defiant
ground in favor of Congressional protection
TO slavery in the territories. and in opposition
10 the doctrine of non-intervention. In this
Mr. Sneed is not singular since he is follow
ing in the wake of Goggin in Virginia, Bell
in Kentucky the Louisville Journal. etc. etc.
To use a strong expression OF the New York
Herald the object of this movement Is to cut
under the Southern Democracy on the slavery
question: The Southern Opposition. so far
as they are represented by these persons, haze

cording to this high authority, fail Il re-

Trajectory charges, totally destructive of each
other, only serve to render those who use
them ridiculous. In one breath they hold
that the Southern Opposition to the misrule,
the extravaganza and corruption of the pres

with Northern aboltionists in a war against
the institution of slavery; and in the very
next breath they charge the Southern Oppo-
sition with design to "cut under the South
ern Democracy on the slavery question:"
ihereby reducing themselves to small fac
ton Of extremists, and precluding themselves
from all hope of a national organization.
The appeal is casting drag net and thinks
it is bound to catch the Southern Opposition
somewhere or somehow-it matters not how
or at what sacrifice of consistency.
II is evident the democratic leaders of Ten
nessee are resolved not to be satisfied with
any position they may choose TO assign the
Opposition. When we tell them we desire to
rally the law-obeying, justice-loving, consti-
tution-obserTing sentiment of the whole cOun-
try against fanaticism everywhere; that we
are at war alike with The disunionists of the
South and the abolitionists at the North, as
well as with the profigacy aud corruption of
the administration; that We appeal to the con-
sentative and rigbt-minded people of all sec
lions to unite with us in extirpating from the
land these ripple enemies of the Union and
good government, they tell us we propose to
sell out to the enemies of slavery. When we
tell them and all the world that tce toaU NAM
tam ioih ,1aacdcertng trmness our Constitutional
rights an relation 10 SLaUeTy." and thus renounce
and repudiate affiliations with the enemies of
those rights, OF every name and degree, they
tell US we are extremists, "a few ardent re-
formers and abstract theorists" powerless for
any effective organization.
The people will now Judge of the sincerity
| and truth of all this cutlery which they have
heard from the democratic leaders concern
ing the alliance between 1.-the know nothings
and abolitionists." Such facts and argu-
ments as the above will open their eyes to
the hOllowness of the charges made in rela-
| ton to this subject this barefaced attempt
at humbuggery, which is an insult to their
intelligence, and which deserves the rebuke
of every fair-minded citizen in the State.
