LORD LYONS REPLY.
TORONTO, Sept. 10, 1856

1OSONIoJ Otpt. ~, 1Coo.
SIE-I have the honor to acknowledge the
receipt of the letter dated the 18th ultimo, by
which, in common with other distinguished
gentlemen, you have invited his Royal High
ness the Prince of Wales, to visit the South
ern States OF The Confederation.
/ assure you that the kindness and cordiali-
ty of your invitation has been most highly
appreciated, aud that his Royal Hishness has
received with the most lively satisfaction
your hearty expressions of respect for her
Majesty the Queen; and of regard and afiec-
ton for her people.
His Royal Highness regrets extremely that
the shortnesS Of the time which he has at his
disposal, renders 1t impossible for him TO vi
sit, upon this occasion, the more Southern
portions OF the United States. His Royal
Highness hopes TO be able to 80 to Richmond
in Virginia, but be Is so much pressed Tor
time that he will be unable ~ extend his
tour farther South.
In fact, the necessity of his Royal High
ness being IN England by the end of next
month at latest, precludes his being able TO
prolong his stay in the United States until
the season when travelling in the South be-
comes healthy to European constitutions.
Your courteous and cordial invitation will
not, however, be forgotten. and will he re-
garded as an additional proof of the kindly
sentiments entertained towards Great Britain
in all parts of the great kindred nation. |
have the honor TO be, sir, your very faithful
humble servant, LYONS.
To Hon. HENRY W. HuLrARD, and others.

Early on the morning Of the speaking. one
Rob't johnson, of Greene county, arrived in
town. and soon thereafter was in Close con-
ference with Britton. Anon, Watkins Joined
the confab, and long and earnestly they
talked together. When the conference finally
ended, Britton came forth and told the people

18th Britton, and talked to him, until, 10, and
behold after The shades of darkness had en-
circled tue earth, and the click had struck
ise hour Of nine, and good men were seeking
their pillows. Robert rode quietly out OF
town, aud Janis Jros arita hlm. de said ne

Poor BIdrTOS, when he got 10 GreensViile,
the Senator'S speedily put him under their mes
meric influence, and instead OF meeting the
candidates again at Broylesville," he follow
ed Senator JOHNSON down to Nashville, stop

ticket in Tennessee, published therein told
rhe tale.
Connecting these Developments with an ex

Eiector Oh the Platform.

4 correspondent of the JoIrsboru' EypresS,
the I4th inst, gives an account of the debate
that day in that town, between Messrs. WAT
xIss. BaIrToy, and DEADEHICk, the Candidates
for Presidential elecsOr in tee frat district.
The chief point Of interest in the debate was
the announcement by the BreckiEsdge-Y an
cey elector, Hon. 4. G. WATKIss, that be was
opposed to the doctrine OF Profession By
Congress of slavery in the territories, and
that his party is with him. Upon this point,
the correspondent of the Express says:
He announced himself as opposed to Con-
eresyional protection to slavery IN the terri
toriss. aud devoted probably half his time 10
a laborei effort to prove that bis party were
with him in that doctrine, declaring mat tne
Democratic party, in opposing that doctrine
stood precisely where il had since tue passage
of the Compromise measures IN iooU. Ihey
had then declared for non-ln!erVehtloh, quo
to-day were non-interVenflonistS III 'is S''4o

Furthermore, the correspondent Of the r.

ply
He began by asking Watkins once more 10
saw TO this people that he and his party were
oppossd to Congressional pfot'ctiou' WHICH
be promptly answered in the affirmative.
What DOES this mean: Are We 20 hav'
two Breckinridge-Yancsy platforms IN this

in the Territories? Mr. Watkins has hereto
fore been a non-interventionist, aud II he IL

manded By Mr.. YAscEY at Charleston, and
