TRtTH.-ltis said that after all, the most ia
tural beauty in the world is honesty and moral
truth. For all beauty is truth True features
make the beauty OF face i; and true proper.
tons the beauty Of architecture; as true
measures that Of harmony and music. In
poetry, which is all fable, truth still is the
perfection" However correct the foregoing
opinions may be, the experience of mankind
in the present day, demonstrates that truth is
entirely inapplicablc, and out Of place in the
science Of politics Indeed. the daring indi,
vidual who would, just at this time, tell the
exact truth about his opponents in the roliti,
cal arena, would incur the odum Of being an
universal caumniator, he did not have to
run the gauntlet Of innumcrablc personal rcn
contcrs, equally unattended by honor or profit.
Therefore, we advise all politicians to keep
hri'llcS on their tongues in the ensuing con-
test, If they would avoid annoying, and per.
adventure, dangerous quarrcls.

HUNTSVILLE, June Is, 49,


Mr. DEAR SIR a.: | see that Mr.. sumner, in his late
speech, thought proper to pay his respects TO me.
lie calls me a slave owner. and quotes part Of my
speech in reply u Mr. Rhctt t" prove that violent
and bloody instincts are engcndered bv the relation
of master and slave. 1t mny surprise Mr.. Sumner
t0 learn that have never been the owner Ofa slave
have never been engaged in any pursuit or nvoca.
ton in which slave labor would have been the slight.
est benefit TO me, aud have never been able to
buy slaves for the mere purpose Of waiting upon
me- There is u negro man here with whom was
raiScd-who has lived with me great deal, and
who was with me throughout the Mexican war. but
the title In him not in il was in my father {;
and if Mr. Sumner will ask any Of the surviving OfIi-
GERS or soldiers Of the Ninth Infantry all Of whom
from New England, think that they will tell
him that II was matter of some doubt whether
belonged to the negro, or he belonged 10 me.
Al all events, if Mr.. Sumner will send here in one
month double the sum that negro would bring if
offered for sale, he could not induce him 10 touch
il. with n condition annexed that he should live in
Massac husetts as n freeman. Mr.. Sumner may find
apology for the bitterness Of his late Speech
in the chastscment inflicted upon him by the Ia.
mented Brooks, but the ignorance he displays Of
Southern manners and Southern society can hardly
be accounted for on the same ground. If he had
passed half the time among us, years ago, which he
spent among the English AbolItionists he would
have escaped the Gaming, AS well as the more dis
graceful exhibition he has now made Of himself.
