llte SOUTHERN LITEJLJR \ MESSENGER -4dk No.
The Fredericksburg Arena says, that tire Messenger
"manifests progressive improvement. There are several
rnptlnl articles, but we think it invidious to specify-_
The publisher is determined to spare neither pains'nor
expense, to make it deserving the patronngc of the pub
lie. There is abundance of talent amongst us, and be is
resolved to present every inducement lor its exercise.
We wish abundant success to the enterprise."
The Alexandria Gazelle acknowledges the receipt of
the 4tli- No., uud says: “We may consider this I’enodi
ru! now us fairly established,and we are entirely pleased
,'vith the result thus lkr. Its pages abound with excellent
original articles, prose mid poetical. Its typographical
execution is inferior to no work of the kind that we have
ever seen, and the quantity of reading matter is amply
sutlicient for n literary journal of its character. Wo
purposely abstain from commenting upon the differ
cut articles which appear in the present number of
the Messenger—but may say, that they are, in gene
ral. well written, highly creditable to thoir authors,
and appropriate. Our notices of this work are not des>n
0(1 as mere empty compliments. We are fully convinced
ol its merits, and the importance of sustaining such a li
terarv repository south ofthe Foloinac. The exjieiiment
Mr. WInto has made, and thus far successfully carried
on. is honorable to hiiu, and we have no doubt, will prove
highly beneficial to his native State, and, indeed, the
whole Southern country.”
The N. Y. livening Star speaks in the following com
plimentary terms of the Messenger:
SoHthrm LiUrnrij Messenger—[Monthly.]_
Though long delayed, from n pro. ; of other engagements,
we greet with a cordial welcome this new periodical,
lately commenced at Richmond, Virginia. It “needed
no giiost from the grave," or if it did, this publication
would convince us that our Southern brethren arc' not less
girted with a fine literary taste tiiau with the higher fa
culties of oiatory and bold original thought, for which
they have ever stood pre-eminent. The present work,
though fugitive in its character, is a brilliant and proud
testimonial of the buried riches of mind which, like their
unexplored mines of gold, lie dormant and hidden from
pul#lio observation, because there has been no incentive
or market, or outlet to draw them forth, and give them
publicity. But Mr. White, the proprietor of this jteriedi
cal, has, wc think, sunk a shaft into the intellectual
wealth of the “Ancient Dominion " uAHi-h ...ill l... >i...

strung together,, ns he has judiciously done them, to l>e

IkkihI of more Colleger and universities than the soutli,
and a more general dillusion of education among the
mass of the population—more philosophy, too, and
perhaps, more cold, abstruse science : but can we
compare with tiiey of that, genial climate of the .sun
- in the pure inspiration of poetry, of passion, of love,
‘‘the thoughts that hreallie, the words that burn?”
—tin* soul of pathos, of sentiment, of chivalry,—the
thunders of a sublime eloquence? We believe not,
ati.l we take even this unpretending periodical as de
monstration conclusive, that iu them dwells, whether
with or without mental culture, the divine -empyrean,
the undying fires of true genius. It were invidious to
particularize different essays; but we cannot forego
naming ii^ the third number one of masterly power,
of most felicitous find original diction, and of in
tense and thrilling interest, entitled “My Classmates ”
No American pen that ha* dipped in the fictions of the
drama can, ns we think, be found to have smrimsscd this
beautiful story. There is another, called ‘Cupid s Sport,’
in Sterne s happiest manner. The “Cyclopean Towers”
is also a beautiful little gem. The fair ladies of V irginia
have added, too, with their plumes, some elegant stanzas.
(. are rOuld be taken in this department, for our coun
try i a overrun with the rhyming mania, but little of the
fruits of which has a higher merit than that of the glit
tering versification and mawkish affectation of the della
eruscan school. As to foreign matter and subjects, they
shou.d hr avoided ;is hnckneyed, especially where there
is bo much more solid and purer a capital to work with
at home.”
The National Intelligencer says : “We have just re
ceived the *l!h No. el the ‘ Suitthern Literary Messenger,'
and we cannot refrain from occupying a few lines with
a passing expression of our sense of its merits. The
beauty of the typography is unsurpassed, and worthy of
the excellence amt variety of its contents. The No.
comprises no Ichs than eighteen original Prose commu
nications, and twenty-five of original Poetry, and w'c un
glad to find, in its acknowledgment of the number of
subscriptions paid witiiin the preceding month, evidence
that it is liberally sustained by pecuniary contributors ns
well as literary ones. We hope that tbe number of both
will rnmimir ID nugmoiil.

DEMOCRATIC PESffP.1L, at .Yttr Orleans. !
Tin- glorious t*3d of December was celebrated at N. ,
Orleans, by a large party, pursuant to arrangement* pro- ;
v.oualy entered into by the Generul Committee. The
tlay win ushered in l>y the discharge of 100 guns.
At llo clock, the Marshals of the day, and a large
number of Democrat*, assembled in the public square,
for the purpose of proceeding to the Battle Ground. The '
s'catnboat Walter Scott had been prepared and properly i
decorated, for the purpose of carrying « ur friends to the
Battle Ground. On board of the b-.at were two nicer s
ot camion, which were discharged rccru minute, during
the tripofthcho.it.
At a quarter pas! 11, the company assembled o.i board ;
I. ie boat, and after a most agreeable trip, arrived at the
place designated for the m -ruing ceremonies. Alter ano
ther trip—and ulso owing to the increase of visitors—
'tier a trip bv the ferry boat St. Leon. Mr. Bernard Mu
j rignv. mie ot the orators of the day, addressed the multi
tude. It whs one of the happiest efforts of our eloquent
fellow-citizen, it was listened to with intense interest,
ami the burst of approbation ot the thousands who were
! present, was frequent, loud, and long.
Mr. John K. Grymes, in pursuance to the arrange
ments. also addressed the people. We need only suy.
tli.it Mr. Grymes s reputation lor eloquence and patriot
• lam wore tuny sustained. The heart of every freeman
i present, thrilled with the most intense sensations of de
| votion to the Democratic party and its venerable leader,
when tlit- orator, pointing at the spot where the Hero
h.'d met and conquered the foe,—-‘ti-l years ago,” lie
exclaimed, *• he proved true to you then, lie has ever
proved true to you since, and though assailed by all the
cali.ui.nies of-acorrupt Opposition—lie has never deserted
you,nor abandoned those principles upon which we have
placed our faith.” W’e trust, we shall be able, at the
j earliest opp< dimities, to place before our readers the
| speeches ot both the orators. They cannot lint excite
| the interest and elicit the approbation of the Democracy
of our country.
“The company were brought back and lauded in safety
opposite the public square. The company were then
j tunned in the public square, under the directions of the
ui.i. lulls of the day. and preceded by music, passed
| through Chartrea street up to the Arcade, the place desig
: nated by t lie Committee tortile Dinner.
“I room, one of the most splendid in our country,
I about 400 f<-et in length, lighted from above by u glass
1 roof about 40 feel from the ground, 'f lic room can lie en
tered from Matches and Clr.n ier streets. Two rows of tnbles
j had bi c*n laid the whole ext-nt, sufficient to accommodate
at least 1000 person*. The room was most splendidly deco
( rated, and illuminated by gas, and variegated lamps. At
oncend wasa splr ndid full-length portrnitof Gen. Wash

| which were lighted by gas, and had :i most happy effect!
i At too other end was the tuil-leugtli picture of Andrew

ranged, and produced a beautiful effect. Bands of mil

Gentlemen :—I very much regret to have to apolo
gize to you for not complying with your kind and llat
j lering invitation to be present and participate with
you at a public festival in New Orleans, in honor
| of the recent triumphs of the friends of the Administra
tion throughout the Union. Hut, gentlemen, I shall
1 console myself in my unfortunate absence, with the
cheering reflection, that the city of New Orleans, instead
i of having /tinrrnishcd under tin- Administration of the de
I inacratic farmer of Tennessee, as was predicted by the Na
] tionul Republicans before liiey assumed the name of
\\ lugs, has swelled to nearly double the size it was at the
tiineot his election. \\ here then stood low, ill-built houses
on muddy avenues, are now seen, fat ing one another on
well-paved streets, long rows of four story, fire-pioofedi
fices, resting on columns of everlasting granite. These
columns are triumphant monuments of a second great
victory Achieved in New-Orleans—not like the victory of
tlie Nli of Jan., which saved your city from pillage,but a
victory, which has nearly doubled its population, wealth
and commerce. These columns speak a language full of
P' -l.tir il wisdom, and will be to after ages tin instructive
nis'ory. I hey tell, that it is n ~.f by encumbering commcice
with onerous tariffs, that comtnr re it-) cities grow nnd flou
ri !i that it is not by creating, fostering and then bowing
down to a great moneyed monopoly, and making it the nr
lnter ol free men's fortunes, that national wealth is cre
| a ted, and individual i nl. rprize promoted. They tell that
| it is not by inducing the people to fold their arms and
, look to the General Government to make works cf iuter
I ml improvement li r them, that these works ore made,
1 and produce fine roads to market. They tell, that the
Mue value of n democratic government is not to dirirt

inuividaali, Lut to prevent individuals from interfering
wit'ii tin* rights of one another. They tell that, under
the democratic administration of Andrew Jackson, the
energies, capacities, and resources of the people, were
awakened into action—that looking to government on
ly for.equal Jaws and protection, and ceasing to waste
time in useless and frivolous pursuits, or 'waiting to
join in n scramble for internal impiovcmcnts nnd le
gislative bounties, hut yiewing themselves aa the arbiter*
of •heir own fortunes, the citizens of New Orleans pin
their own shoulders to the wheel, constructed rail roads
established fact rie.:. built wharves, paved their streets,
and erected their time-defying edifices. IJut the*,
granite column:* a/e not the only evidences of the
real value oi that Desnocratical Administration, whose
late triumphs ove r a formidable Opposition to its priu
eiplei nnd its measures, you, gentlemen, are about l<>
celebrate !>v a public festival in your city. Through
out the whole region of the United Stales are seen
in thickest prolusion the evidences of the happy influence
of a democratic government —(he evidences of what the
public mind run do, when liberated from the vassalage
ot monied monopolies, aristocraticni aulhoiities and
those governmental chains which would draw it from
the hut of itv own inclinations. Throughout the whole
l (lion, the-inn.d of mnn, (that weak nnd feeble tiling
whether swayed either direelly by kings and despots,
or indirectly by banks, tariffs and other legislative de
vices.) is seen rising in its native vigor and armed
with its own inherent energies, conquering space, sub
jugating llie element* and moulding matter to it/ pur
poses. It is a pleasing reflection, thot since th** viet* ry of
the democracy which elevated General Jackson to the
Presidency, that more works of inlernnl improvement of a
substantial, permanent and useful character have Ijeen
completed and are now in progress, tlinn the whole amount
ot such works prior to that period. The agricultural and
manufacturing interests of our country have grown v. ith n
steady, firm r*ml rapid growth, flut, gentlemen, the most
pleasing reflection of all is, that for nil this prosperity, the
people of the I -, •■ilutee hnrr ,*«* sacrificed i>ntj ji(tr:ion of
their liberties, 'f’be modern whigs. neither by their tariff,
their bank, their nullification, nor by their internal im
provement eye!cm eodld have made the earth produce more
than it now produces - brought the products of the earth
sooner to rn iket— sold them for a ls-tt'-r price or put in cir
culation n greater amount of the precious mein!*. Tb< y
hove, therefore, lost nothing by defeat, hut gained in
common wiili the democracy, every thing which liberty
nod industry run yier. The democracy an* not now
rrjoicing over them, as over fallen foes,hut with thorn as
ransomed brothers—ransomed from the thraldom of nul
lification, the hank, legislative usurpations, which were
fi*t decoying tlv*:n into a servitude only surpassed by
A lip •rine bondage,
In conclusion, gentlemen, permit rne to off. r you a
sentiment:
I i:e cxlensi' it of the right of suffrage in fjoaisians,
and a national convention ot Baltimore. The people
have alwas been found trustworthy, with property or
without it. The democracy yhsild not let the old game
‘■Divide .ind Conquer" bo played off upon them.
Gentlemen, I have the honor to be, with sentiments of
the highest respect, your

[From t?K* Nation:*I lantutto.]
^ Our last page contains part of a coiiiinunication to the
Richmond Einjuirer, concerning the influence upon the
1-much t handier <-f Deputies, which has been uscrils-d
to Mr. Kives aecount of tlie Treaty with France. The
publication el that account was, doubtless, indiscreet ;
but tiu-re is mi proof that it made any impression upon the
French politicians. We have observed heretofore that,
in the published debates of the Chamber, no allusion t > il
whatever is to lie found. The French ministry strenu
ously contended, in the Chamber, that the Treaty was
i in tv. ry respect highly advantageous to Franco." We
I presume the \ t!u- fUcts which are urged in the coiiiuitiiiic:i
| than to the Kielimoiid Luipiirer, come from Mr. Hives
himself. They ought not to be overlooked. In his Ive
I port. Mr. Clay his dealt with the negotiator, t>M» se
I verely.
As an additional exaui]>lu of the partial manlier in
which the general subject is treated m that Report, we
| may cite this passage—

and was not insisted upon."
Mr. Clay dwells further upon the same extract, in or
der to establish the point that Mr. Hives ami our Execu
tive ought Ui have been prepared for, and were otliailly
appriz- d of the assertion by the Chamber of Deputies of
an invalidating power over the Treaty. Now. what is
the context ol the letter ol .Mr. Hives from which .Mr.
Clay makes his quotation? We quote the sequel.

After leaving the President ofthe Council, I went to the office of
Foreign Affairs, and reminded the minister of his promise to brio

King. I dwelt upon the present untali-f-iclory state ol the relationa

the suegeatioiii; ol the Pn sident of the Council — that the

of the Chamber, referred to the risk of the French min
i— and not to tlie essential character or binding force
“f the Treaty. In his answer to Mr. Livingston's co
gent argument on this liend, the Duke de Broglie dees
not venture to deny that tlie compact was consummate
!ud obligatory for’ nil parties. The President of the
Council (according to Air. Hives’ despatch of the Mth
June, ISttl,) told tiiAmerican negotiator that ho (the
Pi e ident. of the Council) had been “emphatically warn
ed by leading members of the Chamber that this affair of
tlie Plenty would expose Mini iters before the Cham
bers," that “ under those circumstances, nothing but
high political considerations, and the strong desire
they felt to establish the most friendly relations with
I he r luted States, had induced them to go so liir as they
had done.” The King, in fact, knew and avowed that
the responsibility rested on him ns the treaty-making
P ' er ; it was a consideration presented to Mr. Rives,
amt operative witii our negotiator, that the sum which
the mini .try offered was the largest tht7 could venture,
with tel. rencc to the dispositions (not the inorul compe
tency) cf tlie Chambers.

Insti; itt 10 ns to .Mu. Ma.no cm .—The National Intel
ligencer, following suit after the Raleigh Register, has
the presumption to assert Hint the late resolutions of In
struction to Mr. Mangum, are not binding, because the
majority of the members of our State Legislature, who
voted for them, do not represent a majority of the people
of the State. These Editors know full well that this is
not so. Why, therefore, do they attempt to induce Mr.
' M. t.» disregard the voice ofhis constituents, and thereby
heap upon himself “wrath against the day of wrath.”_
The Editors of the Raleigh Register well know that nt
least half a dozen, if not more of the members of the
! Senate, » large majority of whose constituents are de
| ctdcdly Iriendly to the Administration, voted against the
r< solutions. We will instance Messrs. McQueen, of
(.'hath’iin. Wvclie of Granville, and .Martin .,f Rock
ingham, the latter of whom would have voted against
them if lie had been procent. Tlmngli we ^differ
politically, we, tire jtorsnnally friendly to, • and
liave a high regard lor Mr. Mangum, and regret
! that we cannot conscientiously sustain him in his
present course. Wo hope, therefore, that he will cither
“bey in'ructions or resign his seat, thereby securing to
himself the respect and confidence, if not at this tune,
1 the favors of the Republican party. lie should h ive an
eve to tlie future as well oh the present. His talents, if
; properly exerted, cannot be otherwise than useful to his
country and highly creditable to hintsclf and the State._
; Rhoi.k I si. ami.—The Legislature of Rhode Island
have met, and much excitement exists on the subject of
•he choice of a 1'. -Slates Senator. A number of Candi
da!* s me in lb» field, among whom are Klislin R. potter
Sprague. Trislam Burges, Gov. Francis, and Attorney
General Greene. There appears to be some doubt ns to
the individual who will be selected. Potter and Finucis
arc friends of the Administration; Sprague is the leader
of the Jackson Anti-Masonic party of the State ; and Ge
neral Greene is a no-party, man, of much popularity
with men of both sides. Potter is the first, and Francis
the second choice of the friends of the Administration.
If it were not for the peculiar political position of affairs,
which render* it necessary that decided men should be
chosen, ?«Ir. Greene's chance would lie a fair on**, iu case
of any dispute among tin- Jackson members of the Le
gislature.—Frnmnjlvanian.
.Ytilo F./tiscopari.—John AT. Clayton^of Delaware, has
been re-elected to the U. H Senate, for six years from
the 4th of March next, and his credentials ji ivo been
presented to that body, Not long ago this same Mr. Clay
ton published a letter, declining the honor, for what pur
pose is not easily t<» be imagined, unless it were that the
press might puli' him with tlie more unction under the
circumstances of a earning retirement. They did so,
one and nil; but Mr. Clayton takes both prniand pud
ding, and again nnsutnes bis Senatorial seat. It. seems
however, that this i not the first time of his playing the
same trick. It ia the rtpftilio ad nbrurdum. L ke I’umo
Stmirr, ibe juggler, he lias practised the feat until it is as
familiar to him ih his glove. It i;n puzzling question to
deride wl> eh is the queerest specimen of a legislator, of
the two Claytons the recanter end weather-cock of the
lower Mouse, Augustin of Georgia, or the resigner of the
I pper, Clayton of Delaware.— ll,id.

letter ot Air. Iienton, ol tie* Hcnate, declining the nomi

f for the Presidency, made by the same Convention. Mr
I 'in Hurtn'tpolitic*!lifeiAtharrdnnrn; itis a statetm nt of

Van Bun n has dom let these who know nothing of Mr.

will see what arc the claims of the Vine President on the
Democratic Party. The purity of his private life, attest
ed by Mr. Benton, and sustained even »>v Hcnnlor Black
, in Iks late letter abusing this same Mississippi Van Bnrcn
t.miveii'iyn, speaks volumes in reply to the ten thousand
c.i inres of intrigue and corruption made by one oflwo *.f
* I'1 uo'ipal, and by trios'.of the second-rate and third
j rate »> big proreies, nnd others of no rate at all.
It is in v iin for us to dwell on this opportune, just and
eloquent letter. If the Whigs abuse the letter, let them
do it by d"living the/*<•/#; £.t them B|I0W ,|in lll!in who
lias more and stronger claims on the Republican party

Jud^e W bite could even lend himself for such a purpose
to the Whigs how certain is it that in two years they
would return him to himself, the wretched wreck of wh it

Li this cause, in which it appears that more than four
months have elapsed since the filing of the bill and tin

still failing to appear and answer the same, is taken for
confessed, as to all ol the deleiid inta; and the cause
coining on to he heard upon the bill and exhibits, was ar
guod by counsel: Up ni consideration whereof, it appear
ing t<> the satisfaction of the Court, that the personal ns.
sets ol Isaac Quarles, dec d. in the h inds of his adminis
trator, to lx- administered, have been exhausted in a ic
gulur course of adininistratiou, and that the bonds in the
bill mentioned, from Isaac Quarles, dee d, to the plain
tills, binding the heirs of said Quarles, and the judg
ments then-on, recorded, constitute a lien upon the lands
in the bill mentioned, whereof the said Isaac Quarles
died seized, but that the annual profits of the same,
• • extended by ologit, would be insufficient to keep
down the accruing interest on the said judgments,
much less to discharge the principal money due on the
same, and that a sale ot the said lands is necessary, in
order to pay otfand discharge the said judgments—’doth
order, adjudge and decree, that R. '1'. Daniel, who is
hereby appointed a commissioner for the purpose of exe

that other creditors of the said Isaac Quarles, if any,
whose debts ore still unpaid, tmd who are entitled, may
have notice of the sale aforesaid, and by coming in and

creed satisfaction of their said debts, out of the proceed
ol aai<l sale ; anil if any such c.editors shall make claim
before a commissioner of this Court, lie will proceed to
take an account of their claims rcspei 'vely and report
the same to the Court, shewing which bind the heirs
and wh:ch ilo not bind them; and if any of the claims
be due on simple contract, the commissioner will report

In pursuance of the foregoing decree, I shall expose to
