Of the Peace Convention, the author was
playing part at once unmanly and dis
reputable, but in strict keeping with the
political and official history Of lis life. It
will he comforting to the nnany men in the
Noab, who are yet mourning over the
alnrsfvc attempt Of an unauthorized, ur-
official body to compromise" the people
out Of the rewards Of their solemn verdict,
to know that no compromise which they
would not have spit upon, was possible;
and that, on the part Of the leading spirits
of the Convention, the object Of all the
gabble in which they indulged was only to
gain time for the rebellion to ripen and
strike its first and heaviest blow, John
Tyler was doubtless fair average specimen
of his fellows. His Unionism We hare
pointed out.
The paper from which We have copied
two paragraphs above, was sent to us BY a
Brigade Surgeon in the army Of the foto-
mac, It was found in trunk in the house
Of Tazewen Tyler, (son of John,) at Balti-
more Cross Roads, twenty-five miles from
Richmond In the trunk were many other
private papers Of the ex-President-his
Messages to Congress, in manuscript, mem,
oranda, his pocket book, inscribed with bis
mann, letters, &c.-all Of which were COZ
fscated as contraband Of war The article
which We quote is unquestionably in tht
handwriting of John Tyler, and was de
signed, if not used, for publication. W.

our expectations, however, and be prepared
to meet na with small force and f0rtifca-
tions at Fulton. The country for many miles
surrounding the present location Of the Union
forces has been thoroughly reconnoisered and

tinctly heard st Memphis, although some IS
miles below here, by the way Of the river
from the numerous abrupt turns it takes IN
reaching the points not over thIrty-fve
miles overland. This may in measure ac-
count 1or the sudden panic which has lately
seized upon the population Of that city. We
haye had very little cannonading, II is true. at
this place, within the past three OF four weeks,
but the little we have had, has been heavy,
aud bas materially added to the desire of ali
tiuaid men and non-combatants to evacuate
the pl@ce. Three refugees whoeame On board
the Dickey yesterday conoborate the reports
previously made that Memphis vas being rap
idly depopu1ated and that the rebels threaten
to burn It to the ground before it shall he
delivered into the hands Of the Union forces
This, these refugees think, will hardly be al
loved By the really Union element, which
they state prevails to a considerable extent
This question will be definitely settled by thi:
1e.t, or that OF Commodore Farragut, within
8 few weeks, at mo5t-and perhaps within {
few days.

CARRYING 4 DEAD-WE1GHT.
Tho "reconshuctionists," as they call
themselves, never cease canting about our
past national prosperity. with half the
States free and the other half slave. We
Carried the national load Of slavery, they
tell Us, and yet outstripped all other na-
lions; therefore, we need not be afraid to
take up the load again as soon as the war
is over. But was our speed increased by
The dead-weightwe carried2 The Hudson
River is q besutiful stream. Does it owe
lis nroEerbial clearness to the filthy sewer
age of the cities and towns On its banks?
Our Northern troops have, in the present
war, gained splendid Victories over rebels
sheltered by every conceivable protection
What would VIC think Of an historian who
should Try to make his readers believe that
those victories could not have been achieved
had there been no n1orasses to wade, no
hills to climb, no redoubts to storm?
The victories are achieved in spite Of
those obstacles; just as our national great-
less has been achieved in spite Of slavery
It has been gr7evous drawback.
Our resources have been developed
not BY slaves and their masters, bu1
by men who are not themselves
slaves, and who do not own slaves
Surely no one will, at this day, pretend tha'
VIC are, as people, more happy, more vir
tuous, more enlightened, more free, NOR
wealthy, or more powerful, than we should
have been had no slave ever set his foo
upon our soil And if slavery be load 81
easily carried, how happens it that it ha
brought upon Us this war? Off with th
iutolerabie bu1den-of With it!
