The following curious passage from a late speech in the
House of Representatives, by lion. Roger A. Pryor, we
find undcrgoiiif genera! and unchallenged circulation in
our Democratic exchanges:
“Re that as it n.av, / protect against the assumption
that an nj,inion <v» T* mtnrial potter shall be made a te*t
of putlu a! jt Itiitg. [ can understand how the ener.iie
of Democracy may employ and aggravate the issue a a
wc-ige to read a- nder the unity ol our party but I can
to' co v.pr hi nt! how anv Democrat can as-ist in the sui
cidal operation. In all political organizations there mu-!
be some open que«tioos. it is impossible to enforce an
ex to! conformity of opinion upon every subject of sjiec
lat ion. The p ■ '' the /><■ party A a* 1 »n ;
t er.,tr <i- i.r1 creme* of < ■ "i >' *' » mu' r of Terri
t rial poirer.
Mr. Tryor protests agiinst making “an opinion on Ter
ritorial power" a tc«i of political fiielity. The whole
c introver^v in regard to s’avery is about narrowed down
to a triangular issue, one parry to which holds that Con
gress has power to regulate slavery in the Territories,
another that tho Ter .lurid Legislatures have that power,
an i a third that neither Coagrow nor the L -gislatures ol
tlie Territories have tuc power, but the people, when they
co ne to form a S tte Co.ntitution, may determine wheth
er slavery shall exis'«r no;. Tut first u the doctrine
of Seward ami his par*i*.ius; tho second ii the doctrine
of Douglas anil Sdi p irtl-ans anil the third is the doc
trine of tbc South Now we a-k if Mr DougLiV doctrine
is u')* to be uia lo “a test ol p .lineal ti Ielity," how it is
that Mr steward's, which is the correlative of that held
bv M". Douglas, is to lx? so made ! If the Democratic
parte mov tolerate a diiToreuce ot opinion in regard to
on**, why not n • ot:i *r - It S-i latter Sovereignty he an
open question, whv not the Wiluiot Proviso? If the
docriue of tho South be the true doctrine, are not those
of Seward vi 1 Douglas b.uh f; * If to eon’raven,
and di-allow this true doctrine of the South be an injustice j
auu wrou;* lO l m»iru, urr uvi «uu y Jiu inu
enenrvsof the South—and if one may be borne with, uaj
trusted, by the South—why may uot the other * We say
itching ot the relative measure of injustice and wrong
embraced iu the doctrine- of Splatter Sovereignty and
the Wiunot Provi-o—'hit dom not affect the argument;
but if it did. it won' 1 be oniv to the disa.l vantage of Mr.
Pryor’s position, iaa-much a* he, in common with all
eound-thinking men of r1 • South, has denounced Squat
ter g >Tcre:g:;' > a ui >re odious and intolerable shati the
W iunot Prov.-o.
The extraordinary ground taken by Mr ?. is well ex
p ised in the following paragraph from th • Charleston
Jf« rcary :
• Mr Pryor’s protest is exactly that of ev try heretic ot
ererv nariv. They never »i-:i their heresy to be » t.s
of partv. But in the present position of the Demo ratio
pirtv, his proi- •; i< not .gular. The Northern Pro:, c

prises the wftole of the N >rt‘;c:n Democracy, r-»i — ■ - al-o
his protest. He protests ag-iius- the reserved r ghts and
sovereignty of the States being made a test in the Demo
oratie party. All these «, ic-ti.'-.s the Northern wleg of
the Democratic party in- - -tu’.i !>•■ open qu—-urns. Now
we beg leave to ask Mr. Pri or it the rignts of the South

It is reported that the War Department has prepared .
orders for the better protection of New Mexico and the
frontier of Texas, which arc at once to be forwarded to
the proper officers. They direct the withdrawal ot two j
region nt- from I tah as soon a« the movement can be ef
eted The first column will march to Bndger s Pas-,
u,d take the eastern foot of the Roekv Mountains in the
i Irancc toward New Mexico, near Fort Massachusetts
T e other column w ill pursue the route over which < oL
Dormg returned from Fort Bndger. These forces are to
scour the plain* in the regions of the hostile* Indians,
i ! * V re the mails have been obstructed in the Navajo I
country. They will then be posted in stroug detachments
in Now Mexico. The troops uow stationed there, wiien j
thus r lieved by these forces, will march to the Texian J
frontier and take a post in the regions where the greate-f

Al.tuama uutl h South ru Convention*
The L •gi.slnture of Alabama have passed a series of ^
re-olution* declaring, in ell‘*ct, that the State has already j
■solved to roist the election of a Black Republican to i
•o tiie 1’ro-iJetiey. witliout concert with her sister South
or- Mat- -, that -he Las appropriated a large sum of ]
money tor military preparation to meet that cmergeuev ;
iud that having thus prepared on her own part for t e
■■\ gencies <T the future, she has not deemed it necessary i
to propO'C a meeting ot deputies of the slateholding
m aie*, urged by South Caroliua. Nevertheless, should
- icu a convention be agreed upon, to be held at any time
■ lure t • meeting of tlie next General Assembly, tuc
fiiner' ,r is authorized to appoint delegates for Alabama, j
f i s must tie regarded as a gentle repudiation of tbe :

Mr. Al’CrsT concurred with Mr. Wickham in the ob

niETl ' UTIOX STATE (OJjfYENTION.
Pr. Brownlow, in a letter from Nashville, published
ia the 1 i-t i-sue '■! •>!■» Knoxville HVu/, thus alludes to
th < ippotitiou Convention recently held ia thfl fir.-t tm n
T . • Constitutional Union Convention for this Rt.i’e,
is over, utul most of the Delegates have left for home.—
1 have been attending Whig, A uteri 'an, aud Opposition
State Co ivetttious in Tennessee,for many years,and 1 feel
tu' y authorized to say, that I never have witnessed the
a-- mbit tig of any such meeting ns this. The spoil1
whiih prevailed, throughout, excelled any thing 1 ever
witnessed. E husiu. tu, harmony, and oneness of pur
pose, marked e'en step taken in the Convention, from
the preliminary meeting on Tuesday evening, until our
close on Wednesday night.
Another feature more remarkable, and more worthy of
spenal notice, v .is tl: it of the c!a*t of wm who compos
ed the Convention. E tie ablest and truest nien in the
State, b -iile- m itiy from all part* of the State who have
been ,-iletit s[iec itors since the old Whig party disband
ed, were here, giving ai I and “comfort" in the cause.—
Many of these gentlemen H-jitred gs that there were
thousands in our State, who have been silent for years,
now lull of life tnd determined to act iu the coming
struggle.
But the grea feature of the Convention was that ol
members. U it of iiyhty-une comities in the Stale xci'fii
ty were repaesen ted, and from many of the counties, the
delegatt s were unusally largo. The Hall of the Capitol,
large as it is, was crowded to its utmost capacity with
d. !e.’ iti s. and the galleries wire crowded with-ladies
and gentlemen, atuious spectators on the occasion. No oili
cial iuduence,no expectation of public patronage, p»omp‘
ed these delegates to come from remote and distant coun
ties, to engug • in this ground swell of the pa*ople. The
vet y souls of the peojde have be >n stirred—the lireuofitt
diguutiou against a corrupt und plundering Government
have been lighted up in all directions—and the holiest
m issi-s, m-eiug ti.i.t danger v. Inch threatens the Union and
Constitution, have resolved upon one more fight, as a
means of restoring our Government and her institutions
ia tke:r wounded security.
With one voice, and with loir; and loud acclaims, this
large, talented, and patriotic Convention, threw ou; up
on the breeze th • r Presidential banner, having inscribed
upon its rustling folds, the honored name of John Beil!
At night, by special invitation of the Convention; this
veuetable statesman appeared upon the stand—made a
how—thanked the Convention for their expression oi
confidence and es-.ecui—an-1 declined under me circum
stance.* makiug a speech. The long continued and deaf
„uiu7 shout* of the whole assembly, when the ex-Senator
appeared upon the stand, was, in all, a compliment that

THINGS IN TEXAS.
The Texas “Sta.e Gazette" of the 16th ult., hss the
following item: .
“We learn from a letter received from Captain Brown
that the Cow House people lately fouud thirty-three of
their horse* hobbled and staked out, ready to be run ofl;
aud forty meu from Gate*villa have gone after the In
dian*"
Tho same paper publishes tho following letter from El
Paso :
I have a stock ranch situated at Frontera, ail miles
above this place. 1 have a number of cattle and she-p
there, und have heretofore desigued it for a stock ranch.
I have an adobe house and corral, and had two herders
employed, with the necessary number of dogs to act as
sentinels against the marauding Apaches.
On Saturday, night, the 21st instant, four Indians came
to the corral, and, from the appearance of the tracks,
looked in ; the dogs being aroused and barking furiously,
they retired. On Sunday morning following the stock
were herded out. My herder boy was sent in tho direc
1 tion of the mountain, to the east, to drive up the oxen.
He did not return on that day. The following morning
another herder was sent in search of him. He found
him dead, being killed by tho Apaches, near the foot of
the mountain ; he also found that two ol the dogs were
killed. The herder who was killed had one lance and Jive
arrow wounds in bis body.
Lieut. Dubois, of the United States mounted rifles,
started on the morning of the 21th in pursuit ol the In
dians, but they took to the mountains amongst the rocks,
where successful pursuit was next to impossible, and as no
stock was seen Lieut. Dubois returned. Hut on examin
ation, my herder informs me that some Indians, whether
l these or others, have taken four large oxen and six head
of bcefcattle, westward towards the Mimbres. This makes
j 2') head of cattle I have lost in this way in the last four
| months. These losses are hard to bear; but I suppose I
w iil have to grin and hear them, or sell out to some one
who can b ar them without grinning.
I now find it almost impossible to get a herder to stay
at my ranch, although but six miles above here, on tbo
Kio Grande.
FROM LIBERIA.
We have dates to January 4th. The latest paper con
tains the proclamation of President Demon, with the
treaty between the Republic of Liberia and the kingdom
of 1! Igium—the inaugural address of President Benson,
which was delivered on the 2d of January.
In alluding to the condition and prospects ol the Re
public, the Herald aayg:
Who then, eau say that Liberia will not succeed?—
Where is the man with soul so base, who can say that
the success of Liberia is “ a problem yet to be solved ?”
(From the Liberia Herald.)
Liberia Coi.leor.—The President transmitted, a few
davs ago, a special message to the Legislature, accompa
nying a memorial and resolutions from tho “Trustees of
Donations," anil Trustees of Liberia College referring to
the amendatory act to the “ act incorporating Liberia
College,” piBoed by the Legislature al its last session.
I Gin mono Season—Farmers on the St. Paul’s river
] have commenced grinding and manufacturing their su
gar cane. The cane crops are fitly per Vent, more ex
: tensive than last season, are in a more healthy looking
J condition and promises a much greater supply of sugar,
syrup and molasses than wo have yet had.
HauAiisri Kis.—At no [teiiod in the history of Liberia
J have domestic and even foreign breadstufiTs been so cheap
and abundant as at present, liiee has been produced
even in the Bi-.-» and Kroo countries, an unusual thing,
this season, to an almost incredible quantity.
On our windward coast, rice can be purchased at any
’ quaulitv and for anything.
The farmers, too, have raised rice in large quantities,
while cassava, potatoes and eddoes, glut our market; as
; to the last, however, we speak more especially of our
| own city.
.Senator Siwark’s Speech..—The speech of Mr. Re
war I. of N w York, made in the United States Senate
on Wednesday, on the admission of Kansas, Ls attracting
much atten'ion Hiuoug politicians, although it enunciates
no new doctrine. Its main points are ns follows :
After reviewing the history of the question of slavery
as a conflict between Southern capital ami .Northern la
bor. he referred to the eomintr Presidential camnaieti.
and to the Republicans holding to the piinciplc of pre
venting the Territories, by constitutional means, from
becoming houses for slavery and polygamy. He Paid
the policy of the Republican pirtv was to stand by the
fiecdotn of speech and of tlm press, th" speedy improve
ment of the public domain bv homestead laws, and to
encourage mining, m mufaclures and internal commerce,
with needful connections between the Atlantic and Pa
cific Stutos. He alluded to the fact that many Southern
men nro not willing to see the inauguration of a Repub
lican President because it is a sectional party, and passed
' on to prove that the Republican is not a sectional or
ganization. He asked, is it eisior for us to heir your
sway than for you to bear ours? Is it unreasonable that
for onco we should alternate? He said the real princi
ple- of the Republican party were national. He was no
assaiilant of States. It was well and wisely arranged
that the States were sovereign on the subject of aluverv
within their own borders. He said John Brown ami
ills us-ociates acted on earnest, though fatally erroneous
convictions. He pronounced the act an act of sedition
and treason, and criminal to just the extent that it af
fected the public peace and was destructive of human
lite. He did not think anything serious would grow out
out of the oft-repcated threat- to dissolve t e Union.
MURDER IN ACCOM AC—A M AN KILLED BY A

to-day." The light in the liou-e was put out, the door
opened, and he immediately received the contents ol a
pistol, a ball, which proved altcrwards to have entered
Ins liver. The man who was shot, started home, hut fell
when about 50 yards from bis house; was carried botne
by his neighbor, and died ia about twenty-four hours.

which resulted in a fight. Ou Court day, las* Monday,

morning, about ball'pist three o'clock, the ice in the ri\
cr in front of the city commenced moving, and passed
down, doing hut little if nnv damage to property on this

commenced moving the water began to rise rapidly, and
in a short time the docks ami pier were submerged. The

-avs the Memphis Avalanche, of the 23d, learned the par
ticulars of the tragedy enacted in Ashley county, Arkan

J asper Murray, overseer of Samuel M. Garter, of Georgia,
who has recently settled a plantation in Arkansas, was
killed bv the negroes on the place a few days since. Iu
quires instituted developed the fact that the crime was
committed at the instigation of an Abolitioni-t named
Sneed, who promts d the negroes that if they would kill
the overseer and get his money, he would carry them to
a tree State. Five of the negroes and the white man
were arrested, and are in ja;l at H.niburg, Ashlqy coun
