The net authorizes the appoint- I ment of three persons to perform this duty, | but tiio Court has seen lit to confide it to one. Mr. Hem.ixger is a gentleman of high literary and legal attainments, and has a heavy work of years before him. Death of Gen WallaoeAVe are pained to learn that Gen. Damv.t. AY.\i i.aci:, of Union, diodou the 10th instant. Previously, his health had been bad, ami, mu wiu morning 01 me iuin, whilst walking the tloor, lie suddenly foil dead. Gen. W.\i,i.ace was a self-made man, and rose to high position. Ho was a native of Laurens district. lie held the office of Commissioner in Kquity, and represented liis district in the Legislature and Congress. Other positions, civil and military, he tilled most acceptably. Gen. W. was possessed of a gallant andchiv* ulrous spirit, generous to his opponents, and true to his principles. Ability, of no ordinary character, was long since conceded to him, which, with other sterling qualities of the head and heart, endeared him in a high degree to his friends and fellow-citizens.? Peaco to his memory ! *jr_ T* ? - - rnr- uoyce s .Letter. Tho letter (it' Hon. W. W. JiovcK, one of our members to Congress, lms been placed on tho first page of this day's paper. Like everything else from his pen, it is frank anil (It cided ; and fur this, in these times of political deception, just credit is his due. Hut, according to our understanding of the question, one of his assumed positions is untenable. Wo refer to that portion of his letter, in which hcelaims special protection for slave property in the territories by the federal government. Tlio strongth of his position is much weakened by the admission that he regards it only aa a dormant right: not to 1)0 insisted on, unless brought into the discussion ; whether by friends or enemies is not stated. The principle of non-intervention in the affairs of the territories by the general gov eminent is all that the South lifts ever claimed, and, with the lights before us, wO do not ace the necessity for additional guarantees or legislation 011 the subject. Kor, admit t his, and Congress could, under the new prin ciple sought to bo set us, legislate slavery out as well as into a territory ; and would not tliat body be more likely to pursue tlie former thau the latter course ? Unquostionably, this would be tho result. No : we want no further protection than tho constitution extends to us ; and. twist it as best may be done, tho asking for further guarantees or protection, is but an admission of our weakness. This is unjust to the South: sbo is Htrouger than sho has over been, and there is great ncod of her strength. for bnr mm. I mica are multiplying to a foarful extent.? !
