BSy~ Those "Northern men with South
crn principles" such as Pierce, Dickinson

the slot:hound: sTo wipe them QUITS one
Of theiE mildcst intentions, aud the aAliable
wish to re-enact the horrors of the San De-
mipgo massacre is another of their ccarec-
tives for the lila eff secession. These gen.

hilGte us, blot our memory from the book
of history, but they forget that it is two

in the art of wiPing out, the South will not

of-heart and blindness of mind.

Esa5n The coolest piece of impudcncc Jet
recorded in the annals of Black Republi-
can Vandalism, is the proposition from
Pennsy lvania, to remove the remains of
Washington from Mt. Vernon to Harris
burg. This is an Idle buusts 70 infuso a
little enthusiasm into the rotten masses of
the Abolitionists. Virginia could erect no
more suitable monument to the memory of
her Washington, than the mausoleum of
bleaching bones that would rise before the
deadly fire of her outraged sonr.
Let the vandals come and try to steal
away those consecrated remains; Virginia
will remember them in the day of her wrath
and avcnge the insult, though the last
drop of blood be spilled and her house laid
desslate.

SAGAcIOUs GovERNMENT.-The Govern

one. They stopshipments Of breadstutfs

most bountiful harvest in the richest agri-
cultural country in the world, three times
larger than all France; when, indeed, VIC
usually begin to send -four in large quanti-

'tcring their hosts to sweep over us, so soon
as they get ready, say about August or Sep.
tombor,. when only the acclimatized can live
in large numbers, safely in the South: and
they have ordered fleet down here to
blockade our ports, just as the season of
feycrs opens all along the Gulf coast. Sa-
gacious Government, that!

MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNICATING
the Convention ut this place was so thinly
attended, we have seldom if ever seen n
greater array of talent in even larger bo-
dies For patriotism, genius, talent, and
usefulness, the delegates will compare IA
vorably with any other Convention that
has ever assembled in our State. With
such men as Murruh, Graham, Likcns,
Ector, Crawford, Saunders and many 9TH
crs, this body will challenge the respect of
all good and true citizens. Their action
too, in adjourning so speedily, was in &C
cordancc with the belief that the State at
large and the friends Of the Confederate
States would sanction the movement. 1t
was influenced we know, by the lo.ticst pa
triotism and the desire to act in harmony
with the great body Of the people.

Bssy" An Exchange from Arkansas says
that since Daniel S. Dickinson is so anX-
ious "to wipe out" the South, he must him
self be a good "wipcr." If he will come
South the Arkansas Editor promises 10
give him job in which his wiping pen
chant will find active employment. He
has a dozen little niggcrs with bad colds,
and ffy-fvc old wcthcrs, nll with the
snitllcs If tho Hon. Mr.. Dickinson, Of n.
York will come down on the wiping bust
ness, lie will get the job of wiping the nos
es of all the little niggcrs and all tho sniff
fling sheep. The editor makes hut one con-
dition to the bargain, namely, that Mr..
Dickinson must prove himself sound ON the
goose before he wipes the pituitary noses Of
the niggcrs, and must go, in the "nude
dress Of nature to the sheep pen, lest he
prove to he wolf among lambs, or Mt
least be D'ack sheep, which would demo-
ralizc the Whole flock. lie would rather
hear the old wcthcra sniffle forever, than
to hear an abolition lecture.

Lord John Russell made an important
statement in the House of Commons rela-
tive 10 American affairs. As to the federal
government committing infringement on in
iernational law by collecting duties from
foreign ships before breaking the bulk the
law officers Of the crown said so much de-
pended on circumstances that no definite
instructions had been given cruisers. They
believed collection irnprncticablc.
Relative to blockade of the Southern
ports, they said it could only be recognized
when effective. Regarding letters Of mar
que, the government was vf opinion that
the Southern Confederacy must be reeog-
nized as bellieerents. Other important
questions were still under consideration.
In the House Of Commons, Lord John
Russell in answer TO Mr.. Bvart, said that
England had directed naval force to
America for the protection Of British ship
ing. He said England would use every
possible means TO avoid taking port in this
iamentable contest. lie advised his gov
ernruent to keen out Of it.
