The American.
In the Amerioas for February 8,
We published the first instalment Of y
series Of letters from Southern men
in review of the Southern political
situation, with reference to national
Affairs. Thesc letters were elicited
by questions In writing, with
the sole object Of bringing about
. better understanding between
North and South, to the end that
national unity may be promoted
through the obliteration Of sec.
tional lines. We close the discus.
sion Of Mississippi with the letter
of Mr.. Walthall.
Mr.. w. r. Walthall is q South.
eruer who is well known in all parts
of the South, and is BY no means a
stranger to the men Of the North.
He is y native of Virginia, and for
many years, both before aud since
! the war, has been actively engaged
IN Journalism, chiefly in Mobile.
He served In the Confederate army
throughout the contest, first as
lieuteusst and captain OF Infantry,
and afterwards rs Assistant Adju.
tant General, with the rank OF Ma
jor. He began life as States
rights whig, but united with the
democrats when the whig party
was merged in the kn0w-nothing
organization. He has never aban-
doned his advocacy Of States
rights, which he believes to be the
fundamental doctrine OF American
politics. He is the author OF sew.
sral published addresses and ora.
tious, OF a number Of articles in the
Amevica. Encyclopedia, and OF con-
tributious on y variety OF subjects
to reviews and nagazincs. He has
never had any public Office, except
that Of superintendent Of education,
aud has never been . candidate.
He has always been very active in
promoting measures to check ycl.
low fever Whenever il has appeared,
aud has been presented with two
gold medals for his services in this
regard. He is an intimate friend
of Mr. Jefferson Davis, and has
rendered Mr.. Davis much valuable
assistance in the preparation Of the
6rst volume OF his forthcoming
work.
