GEN. BO3AX.
Pursuant to appointment, UOn. M. 14, 114111ut
delivered an address before a large ussemblagc
of his fellow citizens, in the Court House on las
Monday. He was restricted in time to the recest
of the Court, and was not therefure able to gc
fully into the discussion of the various question
sprung upon the country during the last sessiom
of Congress.
His views upon these question are more full:
enlarged in his speech delivered at the Public
Dinner given hint in Edgefield, which we havc
already published in our paper. We sh-all not
therefore, 'attempt to give a report of what h
said on this occasion. He very happily allude,
to his association with the people of Abbevill,
District. He gave a suceinct history of thc
Kansas Embroglio in Congress, and we thiul
successfully defended his course in reference tc
the Conference Bill.
Gen. Bonham wished to act with the Demi
cratic party, when he believed it to be right, an
condemn it when wrong-was in favor of goin
into the Presidential Nominating Convention
and favored the election of Judge Douglas ore
Lincoln, in Illinois. He gave it as has opiinio:
that Kansas would be s'dmitted the next sessio1
of Congrs in violation of the Conference Bill
that English, the author of it, had publicly pre
claimed his intention, if Kansas applied, to vot
for her admission, in violation of the terms o
his own Bill. He thought the Union would b
broken up if a Black Republican shtould be elec
ted President. There were other prominent fes
tures of his speech, but our time and space wil
not permit further commnent.-Abberille Biannai

FROM R USSIA.
It atords us pleasure to state thaut, by a letter fromn
lHon. F. W. Paeress, our mnitster at the Russian
Court, we hearna that lboth htimself, theonebers of-the
legation, and his fasmily, were well, and much pleaised
with their expaerience (thus far) of life in St. Peters.
h lurg.
We take the liberty of copyinag a few observations
tof general.importane:
"a The interests of the two governments (the Russian
and American) are becoming daily more intimate.
Our incresing settlements anad trade in California
anod on the Pacific are bringing us inato intercourse
with Ruasian possessions on the Amtour river anid the
Asiatic coast, as well as with their posaessions in
America. The trade of the Amour river is immense,
<omnething like $30,00O,000, a year, anti growing
very rapidily. I have coansuls uder my jurisdi-tion
through Asia as well as in Europe, and thecir reports
and accounts to ate bring me into official comtmunica
tion with a large portibn of the globe. I had no
idea that tho actual business of this office was as ex
tensive and imaportanat as it is. We have lhrge A meri
c an merchant houses in ti city; and American
ships at Constadt are nmore numerous than those of
any other nation except Groat Britain. Thirteen
ships arrived this season direct from Charleston and
New Orleans loaded with cotton, without having
touched at Liverpool at all, as has htorotofore been
the cane. The diret trade must increase every year.
Manufactures In cotton are increasing immnensehy
about Moscow ; and one may see loads of cotton here
ergy day in the streets, passing to the railroad for
rthat point."
CAPT. U. M. ROBERT.
We take pleasure in copying from the Albany (Ga.)
P'atriot, the following extracts relative to Capt. U. M.
R Ionant, upon whose letter we made some commtonts
a week or two ago. It affords us real gratification to
plae him right in regard to his old friend and neigh
bor, General Haxnosui. Of course Capt. Rosa-rv has
the undoubted privilege of criticizing antd disapprov
ing the political course of every man, even though it
1were his own brother. In doing so, he shows the
spirit of a freeman. We know too, although differing
afrom some of his views, that he is one who, to use the
language of the Albany Peqtriot, "speaks the fell
sentiments of a heart glowing with Southern pride
and warm~or Southern Rights."
SRead, further, what the Putriot says of his letter :
" His allusion to the course of Senator Hlammond,
only expresses an opinion which every citizen bas a
right to entertaims, We feel assured, however, that
his sentiments were not thep result of bitterness of
feeling, but expressing an opinlos agaijnst the support.
ers of a measure which he honestly onaidcsrs an pyil
to the Southa. Capt. Robert is an ibtelligent ialantar
residing near this city--is not an office seeker, ad
does not desire to be directly connected with poulitical
matters, further than duty requires of agood citizon."
"We are not the apologists oif others, for an apolo
gy wat44 be unntecesnary, as both the letter and Edi
Serial are writtaa in a manly, dignifiedi and respectful
toane. We are authoriatasd, however, by Capt. Robert,
toa say that he entertains a high veneration for Ghen.
Hammond as a distinguished Statesmani, and did not
intend to imspsun his mioices, but the acts of every
public man are public property, and when those acts
are noat admired, thes public have a right to attack
them?'

"LET WELL ENOUGH ALONE."
This is a wholesome maxim in all the business of
life, and is worthy the attention of Governments pa
well as individuals. It is here repeated for the ad
monition of those atmongst us who seek to improve
(,s they say) the condition (if the Slaveholding South
fly the re-opening of the African Slave Traude. Au
article in the Advertiscr of last week was intended to
lawar upon this point. The object of the present re
flections. is to develope a litile further the - force of
the old tuaxiin in its appication to the subject of
Southern pro.perity.
It does not yet appear but that the -wants of man
kind may be suppliedl, in the artiole of Cotton, by the
present Cotton-growing intereMs of the earth, for
agc,-aye, for centuries to eome. That demand has
at all events been kept up with, in the past; anl judg
ing by that past., we have mnch reason for thinking that
it will be so in the future. The many imilroveuentsin
the culture of the great staple, the steady increase of
our slavesil y pro-creation, the redoubled onorgios of
planters and farmers, and the introduction of such fer
tilizersas Gunio are among the enuses which have ope
rated to keep the supaply of Cotion up to the demand
thus far: And is it not fair to infer that the contivtned
operation v? these canusis. and the probable adtlition
or yet undiscovered appliances, whether of nature or
of seience, will go ou iiruasing praltction in propor
tiolm to cionsumption. Even s:ay that by the opening
up of Chiin, or other infla ences, the demand were to l.e
loubled within the next tweanty years. is it not ,rob:i.
ble that t:se increase of prices consequent thereupon
would stimulate the industry and skill of our section
to double, or nearly so, its present average erop of
Cotton. Bofore donying this proposition, let every
Siouthem Cotton.la tnter call in as witnestes his own
experience and observation ; the first of these will
recall ta his mind the inerense of Cotton-production
in the past, and the second will show, by examples
all around him, that there is still roon and scope for
a vast augmentation of its production, if prices were
suffieiently permianent and high to put all the inCas
of our people in full action towards developing that
production. But suppose we did not fully keep up
with the demiauel, is it not miuch better thus, than to
exceed it ? Better fur our'proslierity lnd fur the per
manency of the institution of slavery ? The chief
o:Teet of f:illing below the sttpply, would be to in
creoso the price of our raw material. It might come
to pass, that lrice would on this 'account rise to a
very high niotch. Aow this could- di otherwise then
benefit us, it is dillicult to see. That our facilities
would be immensely enhanced with Cotton raised
permanently to 15 or 20 cents a pound, is a proposi
tion surely which cannot be denied. The efoect would
be, not enly to increase the wealth of the wealthy,
but al1so to unable the poor man by his own lubor to
subsiet in comfort and increase his uslAtance. I is
otrtainly better tha: he should derive this benefit from
a cause so legitimate us the increased detuand for the
products of his labor, than tb::t he should seek to do
so by assisting in the prosecution of a slave cuter
prize which is doubtful in morality, difficult of exe
cution, and likely (if carried out) to depreciate our
great staple beneath the grade of a liberal reteunern
tion. As things now staund then, we repeat, there is a
strong probability that the supply of Cotton will
nearly keep puee with the demand,-to nearly that
no strain upon the interets of other nations would
result, and yet far enough behind to keep its price
permanently high. It seens equally probable, that
the lifting of the flood-gate of African slave imupor
otions would result in our soon exceeling the de
umand for our staple, in bringing its price down to a
low and fluctuating standard, and, as it cotnsquuenee,
in seriously itmpairing the value of thme institution
and thme piower of otur position as a people. Would
it not be wiser, in thIs view of the matter, to "lot
well-anough alone."
There is anothes ol~jpetioin to disturbitng the exis
tant condition of slavery, which we desirt, haroly to
suggest. It is this:.If the slave-trade shall ever fin
rene wed by thme Uuited States GJoverninen t, it can only
be upon such grounds of expediency andl humanity
45 will j4.atify it, before the eiviligd worltd. Gratiting
this, is it not tmore than probable that other nations
of the earth will also hit induoud to allow the trindil,
and even to adopt fur their tropioal colouies the exact
form of slavery whIch we alone now possess. This
doite, and thme Southern States may well tremable at
the prospect. It is not so much their soil andl their cli
mate which have heretofore prevented other countries
from competing with us in the article of Cottont, as
it is the lack of our peculiar kind of labor under our
peculiar organization of that labor. Let the nations
eus a tploipt that organization, or let but England
and Prance do so and the Southern States will not
long boast that position Ot' peculiar strppgth which
they now eng~y. The tendency then, we say, of the
argument in favor of the renewal of the slave-trade
by American States, is to lead European Governments
also i~o its toheratiotn atnd perhaps to the establishment
of systems of slavery similar to ours. Itatheur tan
haard this probablei result, iii. rnot better fur Its to
desist the agitation of the question and "let well
enough alone ?"
It behoves the people of the South tto be cautions in
the extreme, when called on to prononnee tupon the
suggestions of the slavery-iigitators of the day. Some
of these agitators are without doubt influenced by
views of phmitlropy and piatriotism. But in estima
ting the characeter tof their movement, the motive of
cupidity shouldi not be overlooked. That movement
is likely to :ltw in its train the reckless, the desper
ate, the unprincipled, of eyr w bole country. It hlds
out the tempting prospect of fortunes rap'idly to be
made in the active businesas of the trade itself. With
such a lure in view, even the virtutous adveniturer
would ,carcelyastop to ask, "am I acting best for the
future of my 'eounmtry ?"--whilo the spirit of uncon
trolled cupidity would give itself blindly to the cause,
thinking of nothing, caring for nothing, except Its
own individual agrandizement. We say that our peo
pie should not overlook this motive-power in qetima
ting the proposed slavery movement. The independ
ent and virtuous planters and 'farmers of the South
may else discover, when too late, that they have been
led to their own destruction by a delusive wisdom, one
of the strongcst ingredients of which was "thme greedly
lust of gain." Far better to guard in time against
the chatne of such a consummation. Far better to
say to the agitators at once and decisively, " we will'
let well-enough alone."

This magnificent traveller through spae is now at

of his handi-work as man never dreamed of in his

CHARLESTON CORRESPONDENCE.
CUAiLENIwTO, October Sth, 1859.
We'are in the midst of our October Election Can
rasS. Broad Street, the great arena of politics and
wire-pulling, has been in a state of fermentation all
the week with preparations for the approaching strug
gle of Monday and Tuesday next. The elections are
for member of Congress, State Senator, and eighteen
members of the House. For Congrees there is at pres
unt no opposition to the worthy incumbent, Hen.
Purcher Miles, Gen. James Gadsden, who had betn
announced in the psapers, having declined. For the
State Senate, the Candidates are Henry D. Lessesne
and M. 0. Mordecai, the ineumbent. For the hlouse
there are innumerable aspirants, and many who have
been put up in an unauthorized manner by their
friends or by trickters of the opposition for effect,
and for their own ends. These are daily regudinThting
their nominations, nna in a day or two we will know
who are really candidates among this vast crowd of
newly made politicians. We have tLe "Military
Ticket" and the " Mechanies -Ticket'"-the " 31en
true to the South," the " Juniors " and " Juveniles,"
the "Old .Fogies," "Young America," the "One,"
the " Treating" and "Anti-Treating," th9 Sure
Ticket," the " Three P's." the "By Platoons, shake
her up, Bloys," and an intermiualle variety of other
similar schoolboy emblens, andL devices, that would
sound very well for a regulair New York B'hny de
monstration. I do not know how the "Anti-Corrup
tioniets " are getting on, but I was told a few days
ago by an Elliott Street rowdy, that it would be utter
ly impossible fur him to attend to any business next
week, his whole time being monopolized by the groat
men of the town, and he added very unsophisticated.
