From a period anterior to llio Constitutional or- * ? gutiitntiou of tliu Government to tho present time c there hua existed a wide contrast between tho pu- 11 rity and comprehensiveness of Northern and South- * * em statesmauship. The farmer has usually exhib- * ited the contraction of interest in originating or c in a elaborating public measure*, while the latter has 1 riet *ri??trat?*l patient and honest inquiry after truth * id a ?n governmental science. The capacity of the public " WBB men of the two sections was early demonstrated. c rra. When n Declaration of Independence was to be ^ framed, in phrase mid form, in all essential purlieu- c [)u?- 'i,rsi f',tJ P*-'n of Jefferson alone performed tho great | v it ol um' ptlf'oiio work. When the Articles of Confed- | ? , co ( ru,'on censed to operate satisfactorily, (and it is and worthy of note that the first objections to their ? practical working came from Rhode Island, and r i us- were based upon a supposed unequal effect upon tho ' jxist commercial States?herself in particular, bccnusc 5 asos exclusively devoud to maritime pursuits,) and it ^ eat- w,w ''coined necessary to modify them to remove grounds of complaint, and invest fuller and more independent powers in the general government, the name of Washington wan invoked to presido over and, the convention to frame a Constitution and coin's of mem] it to tlie approval of the Slates, and Southern urg, talent was, besides, largely enlisted in its prepata- I be- tioii. Indeed, not to multiply details, more than igod one-half of the leading executive and judicial |*>m and tiuns of the country, froin the adoption of the Conrtod | stitution to this day, have been filleJ by Southern intd ; men, notwithstanding the great disparity of populaand | (ion between the two geographical divisions of our Duld i land. Tito North is fully aware of this fact, and has iiag | Inveighed against it ill no measured terms, as aeon' cession of party to the slavery oligarchy; tho South recognises the compliment, und is pleased that her 1 moral and conservative position gives her this al1^ j weight in the confederacy. Rut there is a eau*e '<-r 8 I for this discrimination deeper than the surface. The ^ul concession is not to more locality, or occidental po^ lo i litieui strength, to be tnrtied in a given direction. | Rut it results from, and is attributable to, the fact "lu' that the sons of the South posses* those accomplish0,1 ^ ! inents of mind and heart necessary for eminent |,>ul J station, and these, in t.un, nre dependent upon purson ; -. ' suit. c.? i 1 - ' l/'t ns examine this for a moment. The great the .... industrial interest* of the South are agricultural. ?u Commerce, manufacture#, and the mechanic urta ' 111 nrc the peculiar province and boast of the North. To those who engage in these avenues of industry oomplete absorption is indispensable to succes ; and rc|1? it is only alter long years of patient toil that they tile* 8c?-'k ease in retirement or temporary withdrawal ?ov- 'l"",n 'ho a -live management of their private en! rKX?n The scriptures truly say, tliat "whatsoever toed 1 a "tail sowctli, that shall he also reap." Those ince ',ave "own h?r wealth?and they have it. lhtt n ioor ! l,'cy 'uvo little else. The gencrom impulses of li I our nature have been stilled. Kniarged views have p Irecn contracted to dollars and cents, and all mor- b I nls are squared to that standard. At the age of j '< ting forty-five or fifty, with ample wealth to givo them ; c to consideration, they cut< r for office and aim at public ; 8 fore life. In many eases they succeed, and enter upon tile P Ice- decharge of high and important public trusts, call- o cm. . iug for practised statesmanship.

Prophets predicted he destruction of the?world by fire on that day, and islroiiomera pointed out tlio ageut of the deatruoion, crying out, heboid it oometli! The comet vith n fiery tail hath already eulercd the neighbormod of our globe! Wo stand on the brink of deitructioii!

'ruus result of Walker and | Crabbe'a expeditions?the one to Nicaragua ft"d I tlie oilier to the Mexican State of Soaora?will have the happy effect of stopping further filibustering attempts. The facility with which these expeditions can be gotten up, and the rase with which they can leave our shores, is a reproach on our government. If the laws cannot prevent them, new nud stringent ones should be enacted. Peaceful cx|?trintion is allowable and lawful. Hut when it is notorious that the purpose of emigration is to harass mid annoy n national neighbor, the whole weight of government authority should bo exerted to retrain our citizens. The right to do this is in our treaties, ' if not in organic laws. If our people will run their neckt into danger, they most be content to bear the consequences, nor look to government for relief. The recital below has caused a thrill of indignation not only in California, where most of the persons were known, but also in the Atlantic States. It is horriblo?but wo think no law-abiding man should be stirred by pruricut sympathy foi the reckless and lawless: Tho California papers give a full account of the massacre of Col. II. C. Crabbe, of that Slate, mid j fifty-seven of his fillibustcring party, in Soiiora, Mexico. He went, it appears, to Soiiora, under circumstances similar to those attending \\ alker'j advent into Nicaragua, as his design wus to aid a faction lighting against the government. So certain was he of a welcome froin l'crqucirn, the insurgent chief with whom he had a previous understanding, that ho wrote to his friends in California on the 85th March, stating that ho "expected, upon reaching A'to, the independence of Sonnrn would he declared " While he was on Ins way, however, and before arriving in the State, tho contending factions were harmonized, and Isith turned their armies against him. lie attacked the town of I_iv.kh, garrisoned by 4,500 Mexicans, on tho 1st of April. The account of his tragic end, from that point, is ns follows: The Mexicans at first deserted most of the town,, hut gradually being emboldened, returned and gradually hemmed tho Americans in. Fighting continued e glit days, with u loss to the Americans ol twenty-five killed. The Mexican loss is reported by themselves to have been twenty-live, hut is supposed It have been much greater, as ligli as two hundred, On the eighth day ail attempt was made by two of Cruhbe's nn-n to blow up the church, by placing a keg of powder under the portico and firing it The devoted men who nt*< mpted tins were Irotli k'ilcd. and (TuUbc is said to have been wounded in su|m-i intending it. It is sad an offer was made by Crnbbe to retire if the Mexicans would allow it. He had refused to retire when the offer was imide him, niter the fighting had continued two da\s, and now the Mexicans n?tifi,t?w?? ?o" lis wciktii'M nn.i their triumph, refused. The : Americans were gradually but surely caught in a j snare, from which tliey raw n<> escape.
