The whig papers of this city yesterday published nn iirijelefroiri lh() 'Louisville- Journal, written for the npurpvo or showing that the Cleveland Plaindealer, i democratic paper, had copied certain extracts from J :..'s repot t of Gen. Pirrce's New Boston speech, u an authentic exposition of Gen. Pierce's views on Mie- subject of slaver)-. Mr. Grav, the editor of tilti'Pbniiileulet; had declared that he copied these t'rnots to show his readers "the light in which tlie vlug3 npresntod.Gen. L'ieiice in the South." TIiHy was legitimat" and proper. In the northern States, U n-TiuRci; was universally represented by the whigs nnd abolitionists as "the most bitter of pro Jaury lmnkei." In the South, the fame part' represented him as an abolitionist. The very ex t qU copied by the Plaindealer were day after day published by the Nashrille Rmner as "an authentic opposition of Gen. Pierce's views." The Plain dniler seems to have used this southern whig club to break tho heads , of .tho northern whigs with. The speech was quite as much a fraud when printed in taPlaindealei' as when printed in the Jhinner. Hut it wnsoriijtnatetl by the whigs, and used by this Vihocrat ouly in self-defence. Its use by the whig psrs here was much more wicked than its use by i he Phindealtr. They used it as an authentic ex rltiouof Gen. P(EitcE3 views. Tho Plaindealer UjoJ Ittoshow how Gen. Pierce was represented in the South. If our whig neighbors will repent and H'PVwkc far their use of the fraud, doubtless the J'!nidealerfv accept their apology and inform its i mi lers of their repentance. A LETTER FROM MR. EVERETT. When it was announced that Jr. Everett had pi.blMliod in the Boston papersa reply to the official i rr.ntiiunication of Lord .Tons Rdssel addressed to the British Minister at Washington, we felt as if he h id conmiited an improp"ety, and laid himselfojten i. the imputation that, having once been Secretary i.f-SlotP, he could not divest, himself of the sense of afle$nl consequence, and the idea that he wa- thenceforward responsible for the character of the GorcmniPut, We still think it was a mistake to nih!ili his commentary in the shape of aformallet t rfroin Edward Everett to Lord Jons' Rcssell, Imt a perusal of the letter shows that the author Ins not, in the substance of it, gone contrary to the pmpiieties of his position, and has in no sort invad- ii iIu',province of his successor as the organ of the Administration in directing the international rela tions of the United States. Moreover, the letter ha very little of the stateliness and reserve of a diplomatic communication, and is merely a free and cry effective dissection of a public document. The suggestion of the Philadelphia Bulletin, that Sir. Everett has, apparently by design, anticipated then-ply of Secretary Maucy to Lord Jons Russell's despatch, seems not to be well founded; as we judge from the last number of the Washington Union, that it is not intended to make any formal reply to a document which was addressed to the British Minister, and which left no practical point open for dirus.sion.betwecii the two governments. Charla tan iferevry. We copy below the most interesting and the larg est part of Mr. Everett's letter Yon observe that "Lord Malmesbnry and M. Tur cot put forward as a reason for entering into the proposed compact, the attacks which had been made on the island of Cuba by lawless bands of adventur ers from the United States, and with the avowed design of taking possession of that island," and to this reason you add, "Mr. Everett rcplicsin these tTius." "The President is convinced that the con clusion of such a treaty, instead of putting a stop to i .1 I 1 11 ! these lawless proceeuuig", womu give a new and jKiwerful impulse to them," and this argument you call "not only unfounded but disquieting." After acknowledging, rather coldly I think, the conduct of the late.pro&ideiit in disavowing and dis (iuragin the lawless enterprises referred to, you ruproachlully pronounce my remark just cited "a melancholy avowal for the chief of a free state;" and you seem to intimate, without expressly saying to, that it implies, on the part of the people of the United States, an insensibility "to i ho value of the ctt riial laws of right and wrong, of peace and friendship, and of duty to our neighbor, which ought to guide every Christian nation." You also take 'occasion in reference to the same remark, to impress upon the people of the United States "the utilitv of those rules lor observance of international relations, which for centuries have been known to Europe by the name of the law of nations. Among the commentators on that law yon continue) some of the most distinguished American citizens have earned an enviable reputation, and it is diflicult to suppose the United States would set the example ot abiogating its most sacred provisions." I supple no onein Europe or America will think the intended force of this rebuke mitin-ateil br t! diplomatic reservation contained in the last two hnc. Let us then inquire for a moment if it is well deserved. i lie expeditions to which you allude as calculated people, comprised a very small number of persons, some of whom were foreigners, enjoying the free dom of action in the United States, that refugees from every part of the continent enjoy in England. The same reproach which is cast njton us, for these expeditions is, at this moment, cast upon England by the continental powers. Events which have oc cuiTed in London, since your despatch was written, strikingly illustrate the difficulty and the risk un der constitutional trovei nmcnts. of nreventins abus es of that hospitality, which it is the privilege and boasts of such governments to extend to all who seek it. There is no doubt widelv prevalent in this coun try a feeling that the people of Cuba are justly dis- auectett to the government oi epam. a recent impartial French traveler, M. Ampere, comfinns this imnivsoion. All the ordinary political ritrhls en- ioved in free countries are denied to tho people of worst form of despotism, viz: absolute authority delegated to a military viceroy, and supported by an army from abroad. I speak of the nature of the government, and not of the individuals by whom it is administered for I have formed a very favorable opinion of the personal character of the present captain general, aa of one or two of his predeces sors. Of the bad faith and the utter disregard of treaties with which this bad government is admin istered, your committees on the slave trade have spoken plainly enough at the late session of Par liament Such being the state of things in Cuba, it does not seem to me very extraordinary or re- proactilul, that throughout the United btatcs, a handful of misguided young men should be found, ready to join a parly of foreigners, headed by a Spanidi general, who was able to persuade them, not as you view it, "lay armed invasion to excite the obedient to revolt and the tranquil to distur bance," but, as they were led to believe to aid an opprosed people in their struggle forfreedom. There wno reason to doubt that there are, at this moment, as many persons, foreigners as well as natives, iu England, who entertain these feelings and opinions, as in the United States; and if Great Britain lay at a distance of one hundred and ten miles from Cuba, instead of thirty-five hundred, you might not, with all your repressive force, find it easy to prevent a small steamer, disguised as a trading vessel, from slipping off from an outportin the night, on an un lawful enterprise. The expedition of General Tor rijos, in 1831, as far as illegality is concered, is the parallel of that of General Lopez. It was fitted out in the Thames, without interruption till the last moment, and though it then fell under the grap of the police, its members succeeded in escaping to Spain, where at some time they found shelter at Gibraltar. It is declared in the last number of the Quarterly Review to be "notorious, that associa tions have been formed at London for the subver sion of dynasties with which England is at peace; tliat arms have been purchased and loan3 proposed; that tho "central committees'' issue orders from England, and that Messrs Mazzini and Kossuth have established and preside over boards of regen cy for the Roman States and Hungary, and for the promotion of revolution in every part of the world." I have before me a list, puqiorting to be taken from a Prussian police gazette, of lilleen associa tions of continental refugees organized in London aud now in action for the above mentioned pur pose'. When these things are considered, the fact that in the course of four or five years, two inconsidera ble aud abortive efforts have been made from the United States, though deeply to be lamented and sternly to be condemned as a violation of municipal aud international law, does not appear to me so "shocking" as it seems to be thought by you. It does not, in my judgment-, furnish any ground for the reproaches which it has drawn upon the Gov ernment and people of the United States. Nor does the remark in my letter of the first of Decem ber, that a disposition to eniracre in such enter prises would be increased lather than diminished by our accession to the proposed convention, strike me as "a melancholy avowal," .13 you proiiouuce It, on the part of the President You forget the class from which such adventurers are in all countries enlisted the young, the reckless and the misin formed. "What other effect could be exj)ected to bo produced oil this part of the population, by be ing told that our Governmeut, in disregard of the most obvious public interests, as well as the most cherished historical traditions, had entered into a compact with two foreign powers, to guarantee tho perpetuity of the system under which Cuba now suffers. Does not Lord Howden, the English Minister at Madrid, make a very similar avowal in his letter of the 30th of May last, addressed to the Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs, when he says; "1 cannot conclude without expressing my deep re gret uiat tlie course.ol bpam is such, as to produce n rr.iii ...-.,! 1 1 , . , , 1 1 ;., . 1. nf . 1 . I1 1 public, out of which will mo?t infallibly result state of lechng which no government can control or oppose." The idea t at a convention like that proposed was a measure naturally cailed for, in consequence of tnse lawless expedition, seems to rest upon an en tire misconception of the present state of the law in the United States, and of our treaty relations i pioploof the United States, who liave never com mitted or sanctioned a violat on t f the law of na I lions against any other power, may" well think it out of place, that they should be instructed oy an English minister in "theutility of those rules -which for centuries liavo been known to Europe by the name of the law of tuUions." There are several other points in your despatch, j some ot great public moment, whicli, it l were sun in office, X should discuss on this occasion. I have, however, deemed it proper, at present, to confine myself to such remarks as seemed necessary to vin dicate my letter of the first of December from your strictures, leavmgthe newaspects ofthecase which your, despatch presents, especially in its opening aud closing paragraphs, to those whose official duty it is to consider Uiem. You will not, I hope; misapprehend the spirit in which this letter is written. As an American citi zen, I do not covet tlie acquisition of Cuba, either peaceably or by force of anus. When I cast my tuougiiis oacs: upon our unci History as a nation, 1 certainly am not led to think, that the United States have reached the final limits of their growth, or what comes to very much the same thing, that rep resentative government, religious equality, the trial by jury, thel'reedom of the press, and theothergreat atlriuutcs oi our Anglo Gorman civilization are nev er to gain a further extension on thi3 continent. I regard thomquiry under what political organization this extension is to take place, as a vain attempt to penetrate the inscrutable mysteries of the future. It will, if we arc wise, be under the guidance of our example; 1 hope it will be in virtue ol tho peacelul arts, by which well governed states extend them selves over unsettled or partially settled continents: M.y voice was heard at the first opportunity, in die Svnate of tlie United States, in favor of developing the almost boundless resources ol the territory al ready in our possession, rather than seeking to cn Iarjre it by a'';;rcssive wars. Still I cannot think it reasonable liardly respectful on the part of Eng land and France, while they arc daily extending themselves on every shore and in every sea, and pushing their dominions, by new conquests, to the uttermost ends of the earth, to call upon the United States to hind themselves by a perpetual compact. never, under any chcumstances, to admit into the Union an island which lies at their doors, and com mands the entrance into the interior of their conti nent I remain, my Lord, with the highest respect, Faithfully yours, Edward Evereit, ADDRESS OF THE GRAXD UNION ASSOCIATION OFS.B. AND STEAS1SIIU' ENGINEERS, TO THE LOCAL ASSOCIATIONS. There have been a eood many plans proposed, and many put into operation, the avowed object of which was to remove all, or some of the evils which are found to weigh so heavily upon the laboring classes. That such classes do suffer from a great many evils, Ave thmic, none who perform manual labor for a living will dispute. It is now evident to all who labor for the improvement of the human race, that httlegood can be done; that but lew o! tne principles oi right can be brought to bear in a beneficent manner, upon earth's toiling millions, un til the toilets themselves become thoroughly ac quainted witn the principle by wlncli they are to be governed and the most leasiblc manner of the application of such principles to themselves, and they cannot get a thorough knowledge ot these things by acting in a separate and disconnected manner. They must have some prescribed formu la of action, and meet together in some kind of de liberative capacity, and have interchange of thought and sentiment m relerence to the puco of labor and other proposed beneficial measmes, and with the advantage ol the experience ol the past be better able to arrive at some just conclusion as to the fu ture rules of action. The Union plan, which we are now trying to put m operation, will evidently ins ire to ait uie greatest advantage. The Union plan, so far as tried, by others, has met with the most signal success in reference to their just de mands lor remunerative prices. To consider the case, now, in reference to the Engineers as a class; The first great advantage to be derived from the protective union, will be lemuncnitive prices. As a body ol men whose interests are all the same, and w:io are an governed by the same rule ot action, we should enlorce compliance with our just de mands. J he next great advantage to be gained from the ter qualified by such experience and training and knowledge and studious habits to fill with honor and profit to ourselves, gain to our employers and safety to tho travelling community, the truly re sponsible position our profession calls U3 to occupy. The engineer has entrusted to his care the lives, property and happiness of almost the entire travel ling . community, and, to a great extent, the hap piness of all who may be connected with that com munity. Ourposition, then, isof the most responsible kind, ;n factt there are few more responsible. And, yet, witnes the hundreds of valuable lives that have been destroyed by a most horrible death, and the millions of dollars worth of property lost through ignorance, recklessness and avarice. By an effective organization, such as is here pro posed, the advantages 'to be derived will be of a more permanent nature to 113 and the public, than may at first appear from the fact that the proposed beneficial measures are more likely to benefit those who most acutely feel the great and important need of tliem, and that such measures will, before they can become rules 1'or our observance, have to pass through a scrutinizing ordeal ot investigation, by every 'member of tho Union, when each will re spectively review and pass judgment upon them ac cording to their liabilities and experience. Notwithstanding we approve of the many means of safety and protection that is granted to the la borer by the government, there lias been and there will be great injustice done to the laborers, until they go to work and put in force legislative enact ments for themselves. Uutil they do this they may expect to-bear with insult, contumely, reproach and scorn; to be the mere human machines fitted only to work, to eat, amksleep, and scarcely have time for rest, much less lime ibr thougkt or mental cul ture; a mere drudge whose fate i to bear the bur thens ol their masters and living continually under the crushing influence of ever increasing capital, drag out a weary existence. The work the mechanic has to perform none can do but themselves; unless they put their hands to tho work "they must be crushed by the continual pressure and deadening influence of this great in cubus capital paralyzing their eneigies, and making them mere tools in tlie hands of their mas ters. But we have a right to live continually in the en joyment 01 an mat is calculated to make Hie happy, without putting off our manhood .without subject ing ourselves to the will, caprices and petty annoy ances of others. It is our right to do this, nay, it is our duty to do it, and stern necessity compels us to adopt some means more effective than we have yet had to emorce our just demands. "It is useless for us to disguise the fact, that under the present arrangement of things there ex ists a perpetual antagonism between labor and can- tal; the toilers arc involuntarily pitted against the employers, one side striving to sell t- e labor for as much, and the other trying to buy it for as little as they can. In this war of interests, labor of itself stands no chance: the power isall on the other side. Every addition to the number of laborers in the market decreases their power, while the power of capital grows in a ratio commensurate with the in crease of capital itself. On the one side, the great er number of dollars, the greater the ability to suc ceed in the conflict; on the other, the greater the number ol laborers, the less the ability to succeed. Add to this, the fact4that wealth accumulates, on the one side, as much faster as the. laborers increase on the other, and the utter iinpotency of unorganized labor in a conflict against capital becomes manifest. This being the case, it is evident that an organiza tion embracing the whole county, would secure to our own and every other trade, a power which could be derived from no other source." Then we would urge you to crrry on the work. the good effects ofwhicn you already see. Put off the old feelings of distrust have more confidence in one another. Quit forever and hold in utter abhorrence the despicable practice of speaking dis paragingly of each other. Then wc can look for vatd and hoie with confidence, that the time is nigh at hand, when labor shall be redeemed from all its disabilities and when the laborer -will have tlie proceeds of his labor insured to himself and not to the capitalist Let every other object and aim be made subser vient to this one great obiect the redemption of labor. You have the desire and thenower to make this Union vour means ol redress. Your dele gates are convinced that we need an organization of this kind to protect our interests; and unless we AWEWHI TIJJEATJIE. Lessee and JIanager, Join Goekxk. Stogj Director, It. C. Gbieesox.

Our government like thatof Kngland, is one of law; and there is a gr.-ut similaaity between the laws of the two coun tries winch prohibit military expeditions against the possessions of friendly poweis. In fact vour foreign enlistment act of 1819 was admitted by Mr. I courts of admirality by a magistrate whose learn- .: T "r Vi "' j- ' 1 AV "LU; 1 b V ' ; ong uie modern glories of UUillJ Ja m uiu ii;i.cuiij; year, vi me IWO, 1 believe our laws are tho more stringent; but it is somewhat difficult to enforce them in both countries. These expeditions, got up in the United States by a Spanish general, and .-supposed to indicate a lawless - disposition on the part of tho American j with Spain. Our treaties with the Government and the laws of the United States forbid all such enterprises. Tho tripartite convention would have added nothing to their unlawfulness. If we had been desirous of multiplying objections, we might well nave complained that, tlie acts ol a very small nuniner ot rash young men, citizens and foreigners, should be put forward by two of the leading low ers of Europe, as Uie main reason why we thould be exjected to enter into a strange compact with those powers, binding ourselves never to make a lawful and houoiable acquisition of Cuba. There is 110 logical connection between the ideas, and there is something bordering upon the offensive in their association. Consider, too, the recent antecedents ol the pow ers that invite us to disable ourselves to the end ol time from the acquisition in any way of this natural appendage to our eontineni. France within the present century, to say nothing of the acquisition of Louisiana, has wrested a moiety of Kuropc from its native sovereigns; has possessed herself by force of arms, and at the time greatly to the discontent of England, of six hundred miles of the northern coast of Africa, with an indefinite extension into the in terior; and has appropriated to herself one of the most important insular groups of the Pacific. Eng land, not to mention her other numerous recent ac quisitions in every part of the globe, has, even since your despatch of the lGth of February was written, annexed half of the Itanium empire to her over grown Indian possessions on grounds, if the state ments in Mr. Cobden's pamphlet are to be relied ujion compared with which the reasons assigned by Kussia lor invading Turkey are respectable. The United States do not require to be advised of "the utility of those rules for the observance of in ternational relations, which for centuries have been known to Europe, by the name of the law of na tions." They are known and obeyed by us under the same venerable name. Certain circumstances in our history have caused them to be studied more generally and more anxiously here than in Europe. From the breaking out of the wars of the French revolution, to the year 1812, the United Statesknew the law of nations only as the victims of its syste matic violation by tlie great maritime powers of Eu rope. For these violations on the part of England prior to 1701 indemnification was made under tho seventh article of Jay's treaty. For similar injuries 011 the part of France, we were compelled to accept an illusory set off under the convention of 1800. A few years only elapsed, before a new warfare upon our neutral rights was commenced by the two pow ers. One hundred millions at least of American property were swept from the seas, under British orders in Council and the French Berlin and Milan decrees. These orders and decrees were at the time reciprocally declared to be in contravention of the law of nations by the two powers themselves, each speaking of the measures of the other party. In 1831, aller the generation of the original sull'erers had sunk under their ruined fortunes to tlie grave, France acknowledged her decrees to liave been of that character, by a late and partial measure of in demnification. For enormous losses under the Brit ish orders in council, we notouly never received in demnification, hut the sacrifices and sufferings of war were added to those spoliations on our com merce and invasion of our neutral rights which led to its declaration. Those orders were at the time regarded by the Landsdownes, the Barings, the Broughams, and the other enlighted statesmen of the school to which you belong, as a violation of light and justice as well as of sound policy; and within a very few years the present distinguished lord chief justice, placed by yourself at the head of the tribunals of England, has declared that "the or ders in council were grievously unjust to neutrals, and it is now generally allowed, that they were contrary to the law of nations and ourowii muni cipal law." That I call, my Lord, to borrow your expression, "a melancholy avowal" for the chief of the juris prudence of a great empire. Acts of its sovereign authority countenanced by its parliament, rigidly . 1 on cverj- sea. enlorced 111 the our unemployed time to the pursuit of knowledge. I Ins good result will be brought about by the ob servance of that article of our constitution which regulates, and specifics the manner of takiugappren- iices. in mis article we butadopt and put m prac tice this same principle of our government, which is simply that of a protective policy. Common sense wouiu lean us to tlie conclusion, that as a class ol England, persisted in till the lawful neutralaud kindred nation was annihilated, aud pro nounced by the highest legal authority of the pres ent day contrary not merely to the law of nations, but your own municipal lawl Under theso circumstances the government and men, we have the right to adopt such measures for tne weltare ot its individual members as any gov ernment lias to uo tlie same, t hat which is wrong in principle for the individual to do, is wroncr in principle for the masses. Of course no one can de ny us the right to learn only so many as will be ncecieu lor our business, bliould we learn more in number than is actually requisite, we at once en cumber ourselves, not only with competitors, but so reduce wages as to prevent us from fitting our selves for the responsible situation our country in tends us to fill in the prevention of the great sacri fice of human life, which has, apparently of late, made such a fearful increase. But in iiccordance with this article, those who would learn our busi ness must serve a regular apprenticeship in the .hops before they can apply ior and obtain situa tions as practical engineeis. They must have the mechanical skill to build machinery. It is, also, of ju?t as much importancj that they have the neces sary experience on tne river. One might with as much propriety take a strippling and put him in a drugstore for six months or a year to put up pre scriptions, and then permit him to practice as a phy sician, kill or cure, as chance may govern, a3 to al low any person, who may be able to put up ma chinery, to take charge of a set of engines on the river, to make lheni work or break, which last would most likely, nay, does most fiequently oc cur, l-xpenence goes to prove that although a n.an may be an excellent mechanic, it does not proie that he is always a safe, practical encrinecr. It re quires years in the experience of all tlie vicissitude n ' 11-.. . 1 ,. 01 a river engineer s uie to maKe mm a sale man. Taking into consideration the great length of time that is cejessary to make us safe and effi cient engineers, lor there are several trades and sciences essentially requisite to a correct knowledj of engineering. There are three trades of whicli we should have considerable knowledge to become competent engineers, viz : Moulding, pattern ma king and blacksmithing; and there is one of which we should be perfect masters, that of fitting up ma chinery. This last branch is divided into three parts: Iilintr, fitting and turning. Then there are three sciences of which we are required to have a pretty extensive knowledge, viz: Mathematics, trigonometry, and chemistry. It is plain, then. that if it is necessary for us to have only a partial knowledge of these things, our trade or profession must class us amongst the most respectable profes sions, or inose considered so by a certain class. r 1 .!.. , . . ii u mum, uo ever, mat every noucsi man ot com mon sense knows that no calling can make any one respcciaoie, wnose Knowledge and moral worth are msulheient to do it. It will be borne in mind, though not generally considered true, that it re quires as niuc-u time anu Knowledge to make a good engineer one who is master of his profes sion (and no one will dispute that he should be master of it) as it does to make a good physician, a good lawyer, a gco 1 mathematician, a good chem ist, or an adept in any oilier profession that requires intellect, time, patience, perseverance, and industry. Hence, wc arrive at this common sense conclu sion: That compensation should be in proportion to the mind, knowledge and research which are necessary for the accomplishment of any object that is calculated to improve or benefit tlie human race. Thus, in view of what is required of us, we be lieve ourselves justly entitled to more than we have ever received lor our services, aud more than wo are likely to receive, unless we form a combination for that, and other purposes which will be manifest as we succeed in perlectmg this organization. The Union not ouly benefits tlie ciiRineers. but it produces a great public good.

Dr. M'Lnne's Iivcr Pills. When the proprietor of this invaluable remedy purchased it of the inventor, there was no medicine which deserved the name, for the cure of Liver and liiltiotu complaint?, notwithstanding tlie great prevalence of iliese diseases in Ihe United States. In the South and West particularly, where tha patient is frequent ly unable to obtain the services of a regular physician, some remedy was required at once safe and effectual , and the op cration of which could in no wise prove prejudicial to the constitution. This medicine is supplied by Dr. M'Lane's Liver Pills, as lias been proved in every instance in which it has had a trial. Always beneficial, not a solitary instance lias ever occurred in vi hich it s effects have been injurious. The invention of an educated and distinguished physician, it has nothing in common with the quack nostrums imposed upon the public by shallow pretenders to the medical art. Experience lias now proTed, beyond a doubt, that Doctor M'Lane's PiIU is the best remedy ever proposed for the Liv er Complaint. U3F Purchasers will beware or cocsTEnrErrs, and in variably ask for Dr. M'Lane's Celebrated Liver Pills, and tike none else, as there arc otherJMls purporting to be Liv er Fills, now before the public For sal eat all the princi pal Druggists in Nashville and vicinity. octl IMPORTANT TO SLAVEHOLDERS.

The following is the con clusion of the opinion : "If a party sets in motion inanimate matter or brute force, iu such a way that injury to another is the result, no one doubts his liability for injuries which ensue.
