The Great Ally of the Cotton Confede'
eracy.

The London Post of the 18th ult., iu dis
cussing the Case of Anderson, the Canada fu-
gitivc, illustrates the English asethod of en-
forcing the stipuiatiOns of the Asbburton
teaty, 10y saying: 1--WE regard the freedom
OF Anderson as 4 matter already secured
He must be brought to this country, and
when once here, the people of England will
take good care that he is not restored to tn
tender uleTcits ut the sanguinary Missouri
slave CODE
ANDERSON is fugitive slave from Missouri,
who committed murder in making his escape
from The State. He was arrested in Canada
under the extraditiou treaty between the
United States and Great Britain; and the 10
cal court decided that he must be returned
to Missouri for trial for murder. He appeal
ed; but before The appear is tried, the case is
removed 10 England on writ of hqbeas cor
pus issued by tte Court of Queens Bench in
London. In the above paragraph from the
London Post We have foreshadoRed the re-
suit of this removal. The ''sanguinary Mis-
souri, slave code" which condemns murder
by a slave, will not be permitted to adjust a
Il empen collar" about Anderson's neck.
And yet the slave State confederacy is to
find an ally and patron in Great Britain.

The position of this distinguished gentle
man. who came so near scaring Governor
LErcHEE 8 out of his boots {" 10 the las. race
for Governor of Virginia, has been misun-
drrstood- He has been represented as Sc
cessionist. The Lynebburg Vaginian of the
lst inst, makes the following statement rela-
tive to his views:
Misrepresentation of the position of Hon.
w L q sggin are being extensively circulate
ed in this city and county. and for purpose
that will readily he understood by every in
{ .lligent man. He is represented as being a
resistance eandidatr, or in other words, an i'm
mediate secessionist, when the reverse is the
fact In speech delivered at Liberty. on
Monday, (Court-day) he took. we arr inform
| ed, decided conservative ground. and an
nounced his determination to go to the Con-
vention (f elected) untrammelled by plat
forms and resolutions. Mr.. Goggin in con-
versation with gentleman. after the adjour-
ment OF the meeting, expressed his disappro-
baton of the position of Mr.. Goode the Sc
| cession candidate, and said be did not intend
| to vote for him; and TO another citizen of
| Bedford. a gentleman of unimpeachabie in
| tegrity, Mr.. Goggin remarked that he "wouid
cut off bis right arm. rather than take the
position bis brother, Jno. o. L., had assumed
aud nov occupies ~ These facts we have OBJ
| tanned from gentlemen of intelligence and in
tegrity, who were in attendance on the meeting
al Bedford Court. Thus much for Mr.. Cog
gins position.
JOHN D.. L. GoGGN was the immediate Sc
cession candidate In Campbell county for the
Convention.

| Hon. Cave johnson. at Springfield.

1t was gratifying to witness the cordiality
with which Mr.. johnson was greeted by his
old friends and his old political opponents of
Robertson on his visit to Springfield last
Tuesday to attend the Convention. There
were many who had not seen him since his
last candidacy for Congress. Those who
supported him then, declared themselves in
almost every instance, ready to stand by
him in this contest, while those who formerly
worked and voted against him, gathered
around the old statesman, and assured him
they We're prepared to exert themselves with
as much sigor to elect him now as they did
TO defeat him in the old party conflict. One
OF the latter said to hun; sMr. johnson, /
have always been opposed to you in politics,
bat in . crisis when the very existence of
nv country is threatened, can give up par
~ and vote Tor The man who is best qualified
to lead us out of surrounding difficulties
shall vote for you this time.' This was the
tone of sentiment among all the old oppo-
nents of Mr.. johnson.
If any assurance of Mr.. Johnson's election
by an overwhelming voie had been required,
we would nave found it in the reception he
met with at Springfield. The yeomanry OF
Robertson county are for him. regardless of
old associations. We are confident of large
maturity in Montgomery. and if Stewart will
only do her part OF the work, his election
will he almost unanimous.
His speech on receiving the nomination at
Springfield. wss powerful and convincing
argument He pres nted all the important
facts in most formidable array, and bis ap-
peal 10 the people 10 stand by the flag of the
Union was earnest and efectice. Those who
have heard him in former days, know how
to appreciate the strength and validity of biz
argument, and no.e1ort of bis life SURPRISES
his speech on this occasion, nor did be eyer
make deeper or more lasting impression
| upon the hearts and minds Of an audience.
NO one who heard this speech can vote
against Cave Johnson. He is the impersona
ton OF Southern rights, Southern interests
and Southern honor In the Qaions Is estab'
fathers Of the Republic.-Csukua7s sf.

ordinance of secession can be scritea is .'as dis
tinct as the Milky-Way, all studded with

all her powers for bringing about fair set

The general adoption Of rifed fire arms
during comparatively few years, is due
principally to improvements in the missels

Formerly shell were fired exclusively from.
mortars, now they are fired from cannon and
small arms. There are two kinds Of she'll
the percussion and the flse. : The former is
made with nipple on the point, upon which
is placed percussion cap, which explodes
when it strikes, and ignites the charge i'm
the SHE'LL The fuse is match connected
with the charge, and made Of such length,
that it will burn during the flight ofthc shell;
so as to reach the charge at any calculated
distance--T,ooO, e060for 5000 yards. &c.
Breech loading cannon and rifles are most
safe and convenient in loading with she'll
Shrapnel is shell loaded with charge Of
small balls. These are scattered about I'M
every direction when the shell explodes.-
If there is mass of men, say at 900 yards
distance, the ignited fuse is arranged to reach
the column, and there explode the shell,
