not, pause much longer in making some de-

The New Orleans True Delta On
jeff, Davis

A late number of the New Orleans True
Delta contains avery severe criticism upon
the late message of JEFF. Davis It says:
The men who managed the control of
public affair have not, with any govern
meut, an s..a.s, or any description of peo-
pie, succeeded in securing one reliable
friend, and so insuppcrtable has the position
of the Commissioners to Europe become that
Mr.. Yancey is impatient for his recall. In
presence of all the encouragement, Mr..
Davis has nothing to propose to the great
Powers of the earth save his own notions of
their public duty, and unwise and exasper-
aIiug spu0ulationv 20 tho 0fF0OtS EhOIy W
be produced on their manufacturing indus
I try by the notable scheme of Withholding
| our cotton. The Provisional President in
vites the utter ruin and extinction of the
confederacy rather than have it triumphant,
tranquil and prosperous By any other means,
/ after any other fashion thaA that which he
himself lays down. He undertakes to deal
| with France, England, Austria, Prussia,
i Russia, and the rest of Europe, ina manner
/ purely original, for if the monarchs of these
/ countries do not recognize in him their
equal then welcome ruin of trade, sacrifice
of liberty, destruction of every institution
-
Nobly, indeed have this unconquerable
/ people pat forward their strength to free
/ themselves from Northern domination and
| had the government exhibited one-tenth
/ their spirit, intelligence and capacity, il it
| conceivable that to- day we should be with
outa friend in the world, or policy worthy
of people so intrinsically rich, powerful
and independent.
The message has not disappointed US: we
expected nothing wiser, prudent or more
statesmanlike, and if its doctrines be per-
sisted 10, we quite agree with its author, the
manufactures Of Europe will be revolution
lied before cotton is obtained from the Con-
| feGerate States of America.

dent " Union Republican, Exceptions are

and the warrant of authority under which
it was published. For the information of
sional Convention broke up without nomiua-
tinga Union district Committee. From this
omission arose the necessity for action ON
the part of the gentleman whose names are
affixed to the call, The authority for their
action is derived from official relations with
counties represented 10y them The subject
matter of the call is exclusively their own.
and whilst it has not the warrant of any
public convention to constitute a platform
for others yet we deem il alike creditable
to their intelligence and their patriotism.
They close their call with the following
earnest and patriotic appeal, which the
Blade and its correspondent, neglected to
notice:

Emancipation scheme of the President and
since then two leading New York papers,
The american and The Clipper, have like
wise, though less openly come out i'll favor
of it.
The country journals are divided, as is
natural Some, as The Kent Ne'rS, and The
Worcester Shield, violently oppose Eman-
cipation, and protest against what they call
abolitionizing the Union party. But, on the
other hand as we learn from Maryland
correspondent of The Methodist, the Eman-
cipaton policy is bodily, fearlcssly, and
warmly advocated by The Cambridge Hte!-

and Denton IMioa. The correspondent
adds, that the people are responding 10 the
appeals of these papers, that, before the
year closes, the pationists will hold
Il convention; and that they are confident
that at the next election the people of Mary
land will render their verdict in favor o
