This periodical, of late year, moat unfriendly to the South, ha* a tirade In it. last again.t Southern literature. It I. replete with th? same spirit which formerly dictated tbe question in Great Britain, " who reads an American book }" America once depended for its literature on Eagland, and the South ha. too long in like maanei encouraged the literary ware, as well ai other notions of the North We hope, however, that the day of this depen dence la drawing to a close, and the many indie* tlon. of that fact, aud of tLe ability of tbe South to produce a literature of it. own, afford, no doubt, the real clue to the savage onslaught of Putnam. We have no desire to bandy epithets with the writer cf this Magazine. The spirit which in spires bis usault is one simply of malevolonce.and it utterly reckless of truth and reason We prefer that the South shall answer him by work* Instead of word*, and our thorough con fidence of her capacity to make such au answer, enables as to look with couipoßuro upon all demon strations of spleen and hatred. We may, howev er, be permitted to ask, if the South be as intellec tually lmbeclled aud physically impotent as this writer represents, what must be the condition of the North, which, according to Free Soil jour aalists, is in imminent and constant danger cf "Southern aggressions ?" A Champion of Freedom. The late explanation by the Paris Conatitution nel of the secret convention during the Eastern war, between France and Austria, puts au tffec tnal quietus to the pretension of the former coun try to acting in the late Russian contest as the ebamplon of freedom against despotism. By this convention, it was agreed that if Austria would assist France in the struggle with Russia, France ahonld assure the security of the Austrian Italian possessions against political agitatioa. Austria finally declined the proposition, but, if she had been willing to accept, Napoleon was ready to plant his heel npon the last spark of Italian liber ty. Having trampled upon freedom in his own oountry, he waa equally prepared to crush it out In every other part of Europe. We do not pretend to deny that the present military depotism of France, having at its head the wisest and moct energetic monarch of modern times, is a more suitable government for the French people, who Appear utterly incapable of appreciating or pre* aerving a free constitution, than a republic. — But then It is absurd to set up for such a man tie character of a champion of liberty The war with Russia was simply a war between despots fcr apoils, which, whatever its termination, could in bo way advance the liberal cause in Europe. The Leopard and ihe Chesapeake. The Charleston Courier publishes a highly in teres ting account, by the only surviving officer of the 111-fated American frigate Chesapeake, of the unfortunate encounter with the British frigate Leopard, which had so important an effect in rousing the heart of the nation to the war of 1812, Many accounts have appeared of this transaction, but tome new light is shed upon it by the present authentic statement from a most respectable and reliable lource. Among other interesting facts, it appears that the Chesapeake had but one gun ready for action, and that she was only able to lire that one gun a single time. The battle was, therefore, literally a one-sided affair, and ought to bring no discredit on the memory of the comman der, or any of the officers of the American vesstl The Naval Court. We are happy 10 understand that there is aproi pectthat the Naval Court now in session at Wash ington, will probably restore many officers who are unjustly treated by the Reform Board, and will alao close the door against the unworthy and Incompetent, who were cast overboard by that tribunal notation. The impression seems to gain ground in well Informed sources, that the principle of rotation will be applied by the present administration to the great official berths, both foreign and domestic. The custom houses of New York and Philadelphia, the principal offices at Washington, the foreign ministers, «fcc.,it Is thought, will all have a touch of rotation. It is not considered probable, however, that the subordinate clerks of departments in Washington wiil be affected by the proposed changes. The Niagara andAllssissippl, These two vessels, which are to be Bent out to Mtist lu laying the Atlantic telegraph are among the most magnificent steamers in the American Nary, The first is a propellor, the other a side wheel. They will be assisted by two British ve* Ml*, probably of the same magnitude. A much better business this for the war ships cf the two nation* *han pouring hot shot into each other.
