THE TERN ESQUIRE.

There is commonly received opinion IN
Great Britain that any gentleman is an esquire
who has $500 year in landed property; but
the fact is, that no estate, however large, con
Tiers the rank. Sir Edward Coke observes
that every esquire is gentleman, and gen
tleman is defined to be one ''qui arma gerit'|
who bears coat armor-the grant Of which
adds gentility to q mans family. Camden, a
great authority on such matters, reckons up
four kinds of esquires:
l.. The eldest sons of knights and their
eldest sons in perpetual succession. z. The
eldest sons of the younger sons Of peers, and
their eldest sons in perpetual succession. g.
Esquires created by the monarchs letters
patent or rather investiture, and their eldest
sons. 4 Esquires. by virtue Of their offices
as justices of the peace, and others who hold
any Office of trust under the crown. To these
may be added the esquires of Knights of the
Bath, each of whom constitutes three at his in
stallation, and al those who have at any
time been called esquires by the crown in
any documents whatever.
In this democratic community every one
is an Esquire or an Honorable" unless
he prefers to be called Major, Colonel, o,
General title of Captain being monopo
lized by the commanders of our lake schooner
and Mississippi flatboats. Governor and
Judge" we're once highly thought of in
this latitude, but since the appellation has
been bestowed on such people as the Kel
loggs, the Moseses, the Wellses, the Durells
the Ludelings and their compeers, no South
ern gentleman feels honored by wearing titles
which have been put to such base uses.

RIGHTS AND w.SoHeor THE SOUTH

The wrongs which ha,been inflicted upon
the Southern States, d especially upon
Louis,s,a, were attribut to the vaporings Of
the rebel element, and ere never imagined
to be real It was onlyuring the past fall
and summer that theyple of other States
opened their eyes to ssths true state of the
case.
We were in the unfo,nate predicament to
be supposed to be actud in our course by
the remains of the seceon feeling, and when
we were regarded in at light, full credit
was not given to our nest representations.
If we had never tab up arms, as always
alleged, against the ,Gernment; if we had
always been, as thee claimed to have
been, true to the Um, We would have had
the support of all ttpeople without refer

wrongs actually infii.d were received with
contempt and whit a thorough examine

But wrong cam always be success.

through all the devils turns of falsehood.
Our cause and our ievances have been in.

aggrieved States; tr version and their re-
ports have been kned to, and the real
truth has reached ,,ose who were not the
actual sufferers, N who could not be con
WINGED by Southel statements. Impartial
men have also visit us, and their testimony
in our behalf has h great weight. We art
beginning to be 50 as we always should
have been seen.
