It is -clear .tfoji.^he does not apprehend their
futnre annexation to the tJ. States. Her act
of gratifying tBi Kecipiocity Treaty, under
which both the colonies and the United States
obtain most of the advantages (commercial
and industrial ojtly otherwiseattainablc through
annexation, takes away the a^eat inducemnent
the act of foribally unitinjpMhem under our
Goverment, wliie she clearly appeciates the
fac'P that though tho/jSouth in Congress will
favor every possible approximation to entire
free trade with them, she will leave no stone
unturned to prevent them from at any time
hereafter coraiig under the Stars and Stripes,
ptfowing that their influence(weight) in the
^Goverment of the United States would be
practically so much additional weight thrown
against their guatantied rights under the constitution.
As Britain has ever-managed them
they have.been a heavy tax on her treasury,
now almost*unable longer to bear such a
profitless drag. Her colonial policy has undergone
a great change of late years. Indeed,
we should not be surprised ere long to hear
that she is beginning t<> make preparation to
leave her Cape and \ye6t Coasf'^.r'Alrica
Colonies and settlements to shift for themselves
Fortifications. .
The Government has not, of late years, pursued
its systemHof fortifying our seaboard cities
to protect them against foreign attack, and
if the accouut given in the London Times of
the futility on granite walls, and iron and earth
roofs, to withstand the batteries of great guns,
now in use, lij true, the system has been wise
ly abandoned! The success .with which such
walls as thosa.of Fortress-Calhoun, at the RipRapatjfttid
Fqrtress Monroe, on the opposite
shore,;wwuld encounter such an enemy as assailed
Bobvarsund, mtw be easily estimated by
anySfbo ivil compare the walls and roofs
which crumb/ed undecj-he late cannonade in
the Bailie, with those$meant as defeuces of the
Chesapeake. 1 Many millions have been sunk
in that hopeless job at the Ilip-Raps, which, if
it had risen te a structure by the expenditure
of as many lpore, would have disappeared under
the waves on a day's fire, such as that which
demolished Bomarsuud.
e destruction of Bomarsund," writes
the French General to the Minister of War,
" will be a cjjpsidcrable loss for, Russia", both
in a muteriaRjfud moral point ot view, we
have in one week destroyed the prestige attach
ed'to these ramparts of granite, which, it has
beea..saidri^ere invulnerable against caunofi.,
We know lioxo that there is nothing i/iS these',
fine and threatening fortifications to ^fcurc
them from a well directed fire." A correspondent
from the ipot supplies a graphic verification
of this conclusion : "None but those who
have seen, as I now have, the capabilities of
the Allied Powers, can form any idea of their
.means. The walls of this place are nine feet
thick, solid granite ; the roof is iron, and under
the iron is sand, six feet thick. Y?*t there it is.
Well have the French and English guns done
their work; the place is a ruin,?ihe roof torn
off, the solid granite blown to fragments, the
ground ploughed up with shot and shell around
it; and the ships (hat did this work wero two
.thousand seven hundred yards o If, and, as far
"as I can liear.. nut uue-ebip sustained the least
injury." Such are the prospects presented to
"the allies. What the Russians think b?'thd
result happens to be signally evident. They
have themselves anticipated the iiext stroke
by blowing tip the fortifications of Hango with
their own hands.
Nothing could possibly be more instructive
than an act like this; which evinces the 'tffepiv
elation and distrust of the Russian Government
in sinus moiiSi impressive than words. By the
tall of Bomarsund they have learnt that their
whole chain of fortresses along the shores of
the Gulf of Finland may be at the mercy of
the ajli^d-squadrons, for they have nothing to
oppose our guns hut granite and iron,,whereas
it is now'clear that neither grahite nor irorvpari
withstand the floating batteries at our disposal.
Oronstadt itself is but a magnificent Bo mar
sund, with somewhat more granite, more Iron,
and more cannon, hot differing only in ditneri.

The Whig JParty in the South.
A few days agsfwe published in our columns
5 an editorial from j|e JJa^norePatriot,.casting
* toff it's connection with' fro Whig Pasty of the
? "North. The sectional grounds which this^par?
3 ty iu the North has taken, throughont New
1 England and in New York, against the instir
tut ion of slayer}-, renders it impossible, in the
? pinion of the Baltimore Patriot, for the Whigs
i of tlve South to have any further cdtanectipn
s with tUeni. We do not" doubt that the course
1 of the W;jtygs in New York and New EnglaqtJ.
will be folfowed by that party?in all tbqi.Fsqe
e States. The question put by Mr. Webster, On'
r a memorable occasion, will thpn occor to the
* .Whig party of the South: "\Mwre are they to

them to tnergh themselveJS iff to the Democratic

Men aro^overned in parties as much by feels'

party in the South, for the holy purpose of saving
our blessed and glorious Union. . Where
are tbey? Unfortunately for them the Union
won't stand saved. Its perils, in spite of their
patriotic endeavors.- are as great as ever, and
they are regarded only amnionuments of treachery.
A separate organization on sectional Southern
ground?the'defence-ofSlnvery?it appears
to us, is the most likely policy for the VVhigs
of the South to pursue. On this ground, they
are compelled to separate from jUe[r Party of
the North; and on this ground, tbejrcan, with
propriety plant their organization in" the South.
Instead of going over to the Democratic party
oftheSoulh, a large portion of this party will
most, probably go over to them. The election
of General Taylor was an instance of just such
a result. And should the^sectional controversy,
which now appears igj&vitable, arise, they
will be the leaders in the controver.-y. Tbey
will be the head of the great Southern party,
which will advocate Southern resistance to the
Abolition encroachments of the North, and
Southern Independence. The Democratic party
of the South will be slow again to take the?
mi
lead in suen a controversy, mey uicui Obi uov |
fnl of the Southern Whigs who abandoned them
in the Secession contest of 1850, and they have
at the North, the only portion of the Northern
people in association with them, who are prepared
to support the rights of the South. They
can probably control the National Convention;
which will nominate the candidate of the Democratic
party for the Presidency, and the offices
and honors of the General Government
will appear still open to their acquisition or
control. They have far stronger ties, therefore,
to bind tbem to the National Party organization,
than the Southern Whigs. They will
fail, it may be, in carrying their candidate into
the Presidential Chair; but this will not be the
opinion of the party, and they will strive to
hold together at least through the next Presidential
election. If, however, the Southern
Whigs organize separately, a great independent
Sectional Southern part;, the next Presidential
electioH^Will lenvo them at the head of the
South. The two sections of the Union will be.
arrayed against each other, on the question, of
Slavery, and all National party associations
will then he dissolved. Without being a proph
et, such' it appears to us, will be the probable
course of things.? Charleston Mercury. h
