JvDE i tidLE iT CINCINNATICON We think the strictures of some of the press upon the late letter of our highly respected Senator, are uncalled for, harrh and unmerited. We can see no inconsisteney in that document, which plainly expresses his own opinion as against the policy of the Convention proposed at Cincinnati, and gives the reasons for that opinion. In consideration, however, of the ap parent intention of the people of a majority of the several districts of the State to send dele gates to that Conventioit, as seemed to be in dicated by a very large majority of the local presses, which usually reflect public Sentiment our Senator very reasonably supposed that there would be a representation of lie people in that Convention, and he comes forward, in reply to an inquiry as to his views on the subject. and simply a'dvises that if the movement is to be made, it should be in such at manner as to gnard ir, as much as possible, against the objections which exist to the measure. He very distinctly says: "Putting the question aside, whether she sh'ould be or not, let the State send her best men," &. He does not give an opinion that the State ought to be represented, but says if the State is to be, as seemed very probabledfrom the expression of opinion given, "send best men," &c. This is the amount of his offence, which his brought down upon him, we think, very unjustly, denunciation unworthy of South Carolinians towards one who is battling fearlessly for us in the Councils of the Confederacy-representing efficiently South Carolina principles, and buldly and fiercely grappling with the enemy of our rights and interests. A more high-minded and fearless representative no State possesses. We surely shon'd not forget that the name of Butler is identified with our history from its etarliest periuds-connected with her annals in gallant deeds, illustrating her military prowers -long and favorably united with her judicial history, and widely extended for excellent and characteristic personal accomplishment. Our 'eator's Carolina spirit and faithful discharge of duty have never been questioned, and we are pained to see what we think unworthy criticism heaped upon him while in the harness of our service, representing proudly the character and interests of the State. Surely, if lhe did differ with us (In even this que-,tion we may differ with a tolerant spirit surely when the most vir:uous and ittelligent and patriotic citizens differ as to a mere questionI of policy, we may do so without ucrimotiy or suspiciun of yielding to corrupting influences. liere at home our best men hold opposite opintions, and yet enjoy our confidence: why should the representatires at Washington not be allowed the same privilege., without deten eintion or illiberal auspicion ? 1n11843 a Convenatiun met at Columbia of represtentattives from every district in the State t1i consult on the propriety of sending delegates to a National Conventtiun. Our best men were there-all uniting ini the object and in the policy. They uoanimously agreed in uniting with the Democratic party of other States "in the aip - pointment of a General Convention," &c. Yet a represenlative who now merely consents to a meceting of the Demnoeratie party in Cotnventioni is denounced as faithless to a public trust ! Tihat Conventioni unat imosly decided that there was reaston in having such a representa lion, and appointed comtmiltees in every district to carry out the object.. Whether it were dune: or ntot,'is the quest iun now. A specific object was ini their view, and they were unanimous in their expressiotn of the propriety of the mteasure. Why shoutld not our representative be allowed to suggest the sanme policy now, and if carried out that the best men should bu se lected to carry it out ? Where is there any cause for eriticisti in such a suggestion ? WVe think our Senator has been treated with great injussice, and that personal predilections of party shotuld not be allowed to inifuence those wedded to any special policy to charge upont a high-mintded and honorable man, motives foreiL'n to his nature. We believe there is no member of the United States Senate more true to his State and to the South than the Hion. A. P. Butler.-CGarolinian. EAN8AS INFORMATION. We direct attention to the interesting letter of the Hon. J. W. Whitfield, delegate from the Territory of Kansas to Congress, written to Hon. Jatmes Chesnut, President of the Kershaw Kanas Association, furnishing important and reliable information in regard to that new and desirable country ; we saty desirable, for lands that will produce from sixty to eighty bushels per aere, are certainly desirauble, antd this, we pres'ume, is an average estimate, for the writer seems to speak with that confidence which as sures us that his statements are neither overdrawvn nor exaggerated. We are glad to learn that there are applica tions from otur District, and that it is more than probable that we will be able to furnish our quota of men and means in -furtherance of thte great Southern cause in Kansas. *Thtose who desire to ga under the auspices of the Kershaw Kansas Association, are invited to call at the office of W. M. Shannon, Esq., and register their names at once, in order thttt the necessary arrangements may be perfected by the first of May, att which time the company are expected to leave.-Camden Journal. Correspondence of the Camdena Journal. Cor, T. J. WARREN: Dear Sir.-I have re eived a very interesting letter from the Hon. J. WV. Whtitfield, the delegate from the Territory of Kansas, to the Congress of the United States. I take the liberty of eticlosing it to you for pub lication, with a view of fturnishing information to those who ntay feel an initerest in the enter prise now undertaken by the Kershaw Kansas Association. By the present condition of our subscription list we are warranted in opening an officee to re ceive application from those wvho may wish to emigrate utnder the auspices of the Association. . All persons, who may he thus inclined, will call at the office of Mir. Win. M. Shannon, and register their names, which, it is desirable, should be done as soon as practicable, that the move ment may not falter. The company will leave here, at latest, by the 1st of May next. Very respectfully, your friend and ob't. sv't. JAMlES CHEFSNUT, Jr., President. WASHINGTON, March 18, 1856. DEAR Srnt:-At the request of Hon. W. W. Boyce, I take great pleasure in giving ye-u such information in regard to Kansas as wtil be use ful to persons emigrating to that country. In regard to soil, Kansas is unsurpassed, producing from sixty to eighty bushels of corn per acre; twenty five to forty bushels of wheat per acre. The finest oats I have ever seen, nothing platnted in Kansats (except cotton) that does not, produce more to the acre than the best lands of Tennes see. Bbsides being a fine grain and grass country, it is a part of the hemp region of the United States. Hemp is decidedly the most profitable crop now raised-, and the statistics will show that the planters of Western Missouri are matking more money per hand than is made in any othier State in the U~nion. ft is nothijg uncommon forarmer tW ny-thea'e hund4d dollars hir'e for negro men per year. White men cannot be hired for less tnan b26 diollarw *er month. In addition to our advantages as an niricultnral people we have a trade with New Mexico, Utah, Oregon and California, amounting to several millions of dollars per annum, besides, our India trade amounts to more than one million per an num. In addition the government for military supplies expend:-a very large sum. Military stores are sent out to all the posts of New Mex ico and the Indian country, and to give you some idea of the amount of transpottation re quired for that department-c.ne firm last year employed over seventeen hundred men, and twelve oxen. Kansas is the starting point for all emigrants going Wst of us. '1 was raised in Tennessee, and have been in nearly every State in the Union, and I say to you in all candor, that I have never seen any country that pose.swes as many advantages to new or old settlers as Kan. sas. Our friends in Westera Aissouri-with similar soil to Kansas, make from six to eight hundred dollars a hand per annum. This will, I have no doubt, seem large to you, but I assure you it is strictly true. The climate.of Kansas I regard as being far better than in Tennessee; from ist September until 1st March we have but little rain-mostly clear, dry weather. The past winter has been, though, colder than ever know before. Our country I regard as very healthy; in some lo calities chills and fever prevail to some extent we have no pulmonary diseases in Kansas. In regard to supplies you can procure anything you may want in Missouri-if you get to Kansas by May or June you can raise plenty of corn. Our lands aro ready cleared-you can make your location one day and commence farming next. In conclusion permit me to thank you. and to thank the people of South Carolina for the no ble effort they are now making to assist us in preventing the best country, in my opinion, in the United States from falling into the hands of the Abolitionists. Respectfully your ob't serv't. J. W. WHITFIELD. Hon. Jas. Chesnut, ;r. FOUR DAYS L&TER FROM EUROPE. ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMER ATLANTIC. NEW YoxK, April 2.

The latter returned the compliment on the 9th. Walker was reinforced by 310 men on the 10th, on the next day Schlessenger with 280 mien adronced toward Costa Rica. At the latest ac counts they h-ad provided themse-lves with hors a to march against .Juano Castle on the 21st. One of Walker's detachments lada se'zed an Eiiglish mail baund to Costa Rica.

FURTHER BY THE ATLASTIC-Thle Brii,.h Parliament had adjourned. iMr. Dallas had gone to London, and Mr. Buchanan had taken formal leave. A deputation of tho -friends of Poland had waited on Lord Palmer-ton, beg~ging hinm to in struct the British Envoy at Paris to urge the restoration of Poland. Palmerston promised the attention of the Government. A REMEDY FOR EPILEPSY.-The Normzamie of. Rauen has the following curious statemenmt: "Somue years ago a femaile was attacked wth epilepsy in one of the streets of Oporto, and several persnns collected round her. A bystand er suddenly eried out, " Cover her face withI a black silk handkerchief!" A man took off his c-ravat and threw it over her faice. Strange to say, her convulsions instantly eased and rising to her feet, she thanked the person s airoiund and walked away without assistatnc-e. One of the spectators of this s:range scene wats a gentlenmn, whoi afterwards became director of the institutes of manufactures at Oporto; and wvhen a y'ear ago onte of the pnpils nimed Vidal was attacked wiih epilepsy, he recollected what he had seen. He priaposed to the physici an of the establish ment to try thme efftect of a black silk handker chief thrown over the face-ntot, he said, thait lie really bel~eved the remedy to be worth much, but that it might be well to try it, as it could do no harnt. A black eravat was acer.rdingly thrown on the face of Vidal-and the spasms ceased as if by enchtantmenmt, and he soon after recovered.I Twenty times after Vidal had other attacks, but he always recovered by means of the samte remedy." Thme Normandte, after relating these facts, says it cannot explain whethe-r it is the silk or the black color, or both, which puts an end to tihe epileptic attacks ; but en auendant the investigation of scientific men, it strongly re commends the remedy. MORE MtSERY.-As a retort to Northern in termeddlers with our social institutions, who never omit any opportunity to vilify Southern people, and to show that misnery has no particu lar home but is as wide spread as the human race, we frequently copy accounts of scenes oif distress and suffering from the New York Even ing Post is of this description. The negro phil anthropists spend thousands of dollars in rab bing Sotnherinimett of their property, while tens of thousands of poor white girls at the North, are either drivemn in despair to profligacy and vice, or sink unpitied into an unitimely grave. Caroliina Times. "A girl named Mary Ann Car, nged 18, was found in the street in a 'atate of insensibility last night. Officer Mark took her to thc Eighth Dis trict Station house, whmere medical assistance wvas immediatly obtained. On being restored to partial consciousness, she said that she had determined on self destruction, as there was no one to care for her ; that she was an orphan, without a home, or anything to live for, and had taken laudanum to etnd a life of suffering gmd want." SENATOR BUTLE.-Mr Editor: In view of what is due eminent public services, to justice and to truth, we are gratilled to see, in ye-iter day's *"Carolinian," a truthful defence ot Judge Butler. That faithful public servant deserved it, and, moreover, you have but reflected the sentiments of a large number of your readers in your editorial. Ambitious orators, who fatin would assume the attitude of Juimius, and imi tate his boldness, if they possess not his ability, may assail him. Expiring, if not defunct Know Nothingism may doubt his loyalty and fidelity to the Southm. They can effect nothingr. The heart of the State beats responsive to that of its able and spirited Senator, and he may sit in true "Curule dignity" at Washington, regard less of the puny efforts of his enemies. PALMETTO. To MAaE A BALKY HORSE DaW.-The London Times giving a remedy which proved successful. A fter all sorts of means had been tried and fadied, it was stuggested that a simple remedy used in India should be tried-that is, to get a small rope and attneh it to one of the fore feet of the stubborn animal, the person holding the end of the rope to ad vanes a few paces, taking with him the horses' foot, when, as mat, ter of course, the horse must follow. The aug. gestion was at first ridiculed, but at last a rope was brought and applied as described, when the horse immediatly advanced, and in a few minutes was out of sight, much to the amazement of ths crowd.

This distinguished gentleman is amongst us, gratify ing appreciative audiences with his admirable lectures. Full of information, rich in imagination, abounding in common sense and always guided by an elevated taste, lie cannot fail to please, to delight, wherever he goes. KANSAS MEETING. An adjourned Kansas meeting was held on Monday last at this place; the proceeditigs appear In another column. Munh interest was manifested and we yet hope that our citizens %ill do something worthy of themselves in this important matter. Col. F. W. Picaz'sa spoke to the resolutions he presented in the finest style of his effective oratory. His speech was characterised by the ability of a finish ed statesinan and the intependence of a true republican. We ask especial attention to the striking views set furth in his resolutions. We should have been pleased with the opportunity of publishing tiis eloquent efflart in extenso, but must content ourself with a meagre synopsis. The distin guished speaker traced our difficulties, the bitterness or present iactions and the confusion in the country to compromise*-compromises that had been made a sub sttute for the constitution a hich was a cnmpact between States. These Compromises were the work of mnjori ties in Congress, an-t substituted the rule of discretion in a majsr-ty fur the fixed law of the Constitution. Any people would sink into imbecility who lived un der the discretion of one man, or of many men, instead of chartered law fixed by ascertained compacts. There was the evil. It first commenced in the Ordinance o '87, made by Virginia and the General Governmnent; and then again was repeated in what is commonly called the Missouri Compromise. le illustrated the nature of that compromise. Next came the Tariff compromise of 1833, which was violated shamelessly by the act of '42, which destroyed the faith of parties and demoralized publin virtue. Agnain, there was the compromise admitaing C.difornia, by whicha act a no ble territory laad beena seized below 38* 30, which ac cording to the Mo. Compromise in spirit and gooud faith belonged to thte South. It was thais infamous measure that completed the debauch of the wihele country. We bore It, and have sunak deeper into difficulty. Anad then, to remedy all, the Nebraska Caompromise again is made, repealing the 36*30 line amal opening (as was saupposed by many at thae Northa) all thae coun try to be seized and appa'opriated by the paapnlonts North tinder what is called squatter Forreiy ty. . But in Kansas, we had beaten thetm aipon their owo prin ciples and their own Abolition Governor had given hs seal to a lawfully returned Legislature who were with ns as to interest andl rights. And now, if we are to he driven from it without the spirit to appeal to - arms and the God of Battles if need he., we shall deserve our diegra ded destiny. If we refuse to stand by the gallant, thae noble A TcttsoN, who has hung out the hataner tupon the outer wall, then will the chain be drawn closer and closer around us, and we shall perish like mice in tnemphaitic gas tunder an exhausted receiver. If the lowver house of Congress sanction all this bay a deliberate Vote, the time will have passedi when we cana appeal to the Constitution. That House hohlls the parse stringis of~ thme Corafederacy, a power expressly granted by the Constitution whaere it declares that1 "all revenne hills shall originiate in the lionane of Representatives." There will he nothaing left us bait an appeal to tlae States-to the organizeal power of the States-to the naohle " Old Doaminaian," the mothter of States-to Georgia, who now is making siuch strides towards power and empire-to the whoale South in short, that they wouild prot-ct the President and the Senate, save the Caonstittution and the Union umaler it, save the whole Country if possible-and if thais be not passible, at least save ourselves in the last resaort. But we mar an admirable effort by so hurried a codensationi. It should have been heard to have been properly appreciatedl. There senms to hatve been an omission at thet war nmteting held latst week at the North Chureb, in fiuine out thae Etmigratnt Cianpanty.

A GREAT CoUNTRY-To give the English some idea of the extent of ouir domatin, which they have recently talked so much about atini hiating at a uingle blow, we would stale (says a New York palper) that thu distance between H New York arid New O.-leansa is more thant eqtatlt to that seperatting London from Constantinople, or Paris fronm St. Petersburg.

Szamis-Dear Sir; fin addition to wh has been said relative to the importance of Sabba Schools, other considerations nmight be urged.nrisii front the peculiat chatracter or thte age in which ti live. Error ia assuming forms calcinlated to decei' the unwvarry. huidelity is engrarting itself upcn sience, especially upon geology, and it is also sen in theology, enstravoring to place the doctrine of o: religion upon a ratiuonal basis. Phtilososphy begins reject what she canniot explaini. Tfhese tings al the more to be dlreadled from the faet that we arc light-mindled people, and thmere.fore credulous. Ii nre promne to seek thit wh'eh wiill please, instead profit us. The light-mnindedness of 'ur age might inferred fronm the charneter of mmo't of the produ ions of the presemnt ay. A wi'iter, if lhe wishes beneflt others, mtu.t have a pure motive, for this wi give a character to his worik. But if his aiim is I p~lease, to get gain, to chrushi an adversary, to vind ente a f.,vorite theory or to ob~tain the praises of mtei hi work cannot be e'msidlered benelicial. Then impure motives have brought within the reach< the young thousainds of books that wo~uld not reps hem fort the time s5'ent in a careful pernsul. Ver inny exert a tendency dreidedly injurious. Esp' ially is this true of woi'ks of fletiion. [low ofte ,hues the no.velist, in his hero or heroine, hold up ft imdmiration, those very traits which are opposed I the piriniciples of-divine truth'I And by giving 1 their dai'k deeds the names of virtite, lead us to ui Ier value the pure dosctrines of inspiration. An mot often idoes the niovelist, after making virtues< rursder. amitiion, inilice &c., take his heroes, heir death, to the heav'-nly rest ! What an influ .nee is iimperceptitbly exer'ted upon us, by seeing iih ermine of one of our novel wri-ers, iifter falling rietimi to~ her own errors, and while standing befs'r ho mtirror, which reflected her be-mtiful ine, pal with maortitiention aind disa.'ppointment, and curlini he silken tresses which f.,wed in beautiful profusio: aver her shoulders, fills a corpse upon the floor, an' s ushered to the par adise of the saints ! Now whei ve remiember that "ni itovel reader ever yet lovel 'he bible," we may see the dnanger of iour youthi lindly drinking from these poisenous strsitms. Ani >f the perioidicals wvhichm fisod our country, ho' uall a portion will repasy an attentive perusal. I e look into common conversation we generalla id the samne lightness. Friends meet to spend at vening, atnd like the Athenians the tirme is pae< a hearing anid telling something new,-the news e ho neighborhood-criticisinig the notions of othera md perhaps, countenanclinig thme tale of sequdnal. 0 f we may peep into 4tuother circle perhaps we wil id " that refined nonsense and polite foolishness, is becomecfashionabLi, and they seem to thinks tha hey " had better be dead thatn out of fashion." G a some of our public hotels ; you see some youni entkmen just coming out from dinner ; they hsv lined in haste, and are now hurrying away ; you speal n one but lie has soai'cehy time to stop--you hay mportant business with him, but he really haa ne imie to attend to it inow, he will do so to-night o ,omrrow, and you havet to wait or go awny disap >ninted. But watch that young man-where is h toing ? Oh, only to a public piama to spend the eve sng In idle talk, and criticise those passing by >erhaps to smile at the honest labourer, as he is her -yiig on to his wvorkn. Children are brought up t ook aponl time, as an iexperieneed youth wouli ook upon a box of gold openedh before himq. IlI ..l~ mag-ine ti to cotip a mine of wealth, whic1 a lifetime could not exhaust; and he would not dream that a small amount squandered daily would soon empty the box. Now the light-mindedness 0 which I have spoken of serves to fortify us against r that sound thought and mature reflection, which is I essential to our spiritual inter.-st. If a enn1.1n ball be dischargedamong the atoms floxnting in the air. they *ould receive no injury bec.tute their lightness becomes their safety, while a more solid bady wouled r be torn to atoms. Thus it is with the light-minledness e of the present age whieh shielel them against the im a pressions of the gospel. It is for this reason that the gospel has not near the success, all things cou it sidered, whieb it had in earlier days, or which it y has now in heathen nations. Th.- deficiency is net d in the workmen, but inl thes mat--rial. Sheould we not seek to remedy thes - ev.s? l6 it not our eluty l as Christians to seek to train et tlte yting more perfiectly. How 0ran we dl., th a ? Cn we in any e course, meet with eor...sueee.-s than th.- S.S. would ru-nish? There they would acquire a love fur good books, for solid reading, and as this became stronger n their I ve for the opposite would diminish.-There e they would learn to value tine; and instead of growing up for idleness, they would grow up for usefulness. Sabbath Schools would also tend to cheek the spirit of insubordination which is common with the a youth of the present age. It is not uncoenmon for children to be the masters or the household. Such . is the case with those not restrained in early youth. 0 If paternal and maternal authority is not, at that time, exercised it soon comes to pass that father and g mother must yield to tlte gratificatioan of their child is ish inclinations ; and the result is that when twelve or fifteen years of age, they desire to throw off pa ternal restraint. They desire their own way-par. d ents cannot please them-their counsel and advice beeomeis irksome, and growing up unrestrained they soon become wiser than parents or teachers; and e when sent from home, fer edueation, they are fitted fear disloyalty and rebAlion. It would be needless for me to prove that the first men of our country have ever been, and now are those who have been brought up under rigid discipline. Discipline is, in fact, an essential part of education, and yet it is sad r ly neglected in the present age. Now, every refor y mation must be base I upon moral principle, these a principles mu: t be understood and enforced as a rule -e of action, and this may be best accomplished in the ,, Sabbath School. Our youth must be taught to un derstand the principles of the bible; then, when the e present generation siall pass away, they may tafely e coulide the interests of Church and state to the e and, of those who will be their successors. But itt spite of my multum in parvo efforts, I am becoming too lengthy. I certainly did intend to close my subject with this number, and not to tress. s pas upon your time annd that of your readers. But I know the subject is imtportant, and I am interested in it. I des4ign noticing the expediency of Sabbath er Schools in the country. and then to elose with some direct remarks to parent-;. I desire to help on this noble c tuse, and had hoped to incite others to lend d it a helping hand. This cause deserves something. r however little it may be, from me. And I have writen, relying upon the anaxim " Qui facit per alterum, facit per se." But it matters nothing by whom this wvork is perfoermedl, so it is done. If your kindness will indulge me, I shall endenaver to eon elude thtis subject next week. Very Respectfully B. F. COR LEYe t For the Advertiser. CMa Earrott: A Kansas meeting was held at the d Watery Brtach, in the neighborhaoo.l of the Ridge, on Saturday the fifth of April. The day was pro. epitious, the bright sunshinte being tempered by a ifbracing breeze from the gelid North. The "eitizen -s soldiery," who were 6unt on duty for a shoert time 1, together with the spectators, formned a considerable "S auditory for the young gentleamen that had been ittvited to addlress the meetitng.

Ii argument, going to show ethat every poor mnan has ian interest in African slavery and by contse'quence, at interest in thec set tlemnent uf Kansas by a pro-slavery populaiee, was oril, ntural, and most poawerfully convincing. Mlr. TIL~tstax elucidated several other poeints witha 11no little acutnean and ingenuity.
