"INERADIcABLE ANTAaoNIsx. The Richmond
Dispatch, In the course Of comments upon the
rebel disaster At Fort rDonelson, admits that
there are some classes at the South which would
scquiesce In "Ysnkss domination" but pro-
ceeds to say: $1,000,
"The great msjoiity Of che Southern people,
however, are devotedly attached to their coun.
try, to It's habits and modes OF lie and they have
On innate and inefadicsbls antagonism 10 the
political and social system Of the Invading race,
10 their character and habits, and their very
modes Of spsscb, which the present cruel war
hes intensified into such passionate and pro-
found detestation, that sooner than sckn0wl-
edge the Yankees as msstsss,- they would ra.
ther see the whole Southern country sink TO
the bottom Of The OCEAN. As q Whole, the
South Is proud, sensitive 10 the last degree to a
stain upon her honor, and holding death as an
inferior evii 70 dSgndhuon. Such men may
be overruu, may be exterminated, but they can
not be subjugated. They will resist as long as
resistance Is possible, and, Y conquered, they
will not stay conquered. Hhen the spitlh Of
people are indOmitable, they can never be
enSlaved and 10 long as the South Is true 10
herself she will mai6lain her freedom and In
dependence"

'tr'tp OUTLAWRY. -

In the report Of proceedings in the Senate
February ls, the following statement appears !:
"Mr. Harris introduced a bill declaring a
forfeiture Of the rights and privileges of certain
persons. II Is founded upon the English doc.
trne Of outlawry. By Magma Charta no citizen
and beneft of the law Of the land, but by the
law of the land. BY this bill, when 1t becomes
a law, that principle will be introduced hero"
In view Of this movement, perhaps a precise
definition OF ibis law will not be deemed inop.
perfume, or without interest or service at this
juncture. "Sellon's Practice" page SS7, vol
II, gives the following on this subject:
I" "Outlswry Is punishment inflicted on
person for contempt and contumacy In refusing
to be ameuable 10 and abide by tho justice Of
that court which hath lawful authority to call
before them, and as this Is a crime Of the
highest nature, being All act of rebellion
against that State or community OF which he Ia
% member, 30 doth Il subject the party to
divers forfeltures and disabilities ; for hereby
he loseth 'liberam Lsgen,' is out Of the kings
protection, For, as to outlawries in treason
and felony, the law interprets the party's ab.
ssnoe sufficient evidence of his guilt, and
without requiring further proof or satisfaction,
accounts him guilty Of the fact, on which en-.
sues corruption Of blood and forfeiture Of bis
whole estate" a.

YANoEY UPON TIE SLAVERY QUESTION.
the papers just laid before the British Pariis-
ment, Is letter addressed to Lord Russell, on
the l4th Of last August, by Mesns. Yancey,
Rost, and Mann, commissioners Of the Southern
Confederacy, In which the following paragraph
Ii found:
"It was from no fear that the slaves would
be liberated that secession took place. The
very party In power has proposed to guarantee
slavery for ever In the States IL the South would
but remain In the Union. Mr.. LincOn's mes.
sage proposes no freedom to the slave, but an.
nounGes subjeotion OF his owner to the will Of
the Union-in other words, TO the will Of the
North. Even after the battle Of Bull Run, both
branches OF the Congress at Washington passed
resolutions that the war is only waged In order
to uphold that (pro slavery Constitution, and
toenforoe the laws, ,(mSny OF them pro slavery, }
in the lower House they received all but two,
and In the Senate all but one vote. As the army
commenced It's march, the commanding general
issued ea order that no slaves should be re-
ceived into, or allowed to follow, the camp,
The great object of the war, therefore, az now
ohioially announced, 10 not to free tho slave,
but to keep him In subsection to his owner, and
to control his labor through the legislative
channels which the Lincoln Government de-
signs to force upon the master. The under
signed, therefore, submit with confidence that
al far as the antislavsry sentiment Of England
North; nay, It will probably become disgustsd
With a oanting hypocrisy which would enlist
those symphthies on false prsterces."
1t Is easy to zee how and why II has hap
pened, that the snti'slsvery sentiment Of Eng
Land has not been enlisted on the side Of the
Union and against the South.

by every form of popular manifestation, and
where his military fosthold is now reduced to

represented BY full delegations In tho od Con-
gress Of the old Union, aud will learn with some
surprise that they are two Of the thirteen States
Of the Southern Confederacy.
In close connection with this assumption O,
jurisdiction over territory into which he dares
not set bis foot, Mr.. Davis glori6es the guaran
