7 the fchreveyort (IVin..) 8th ult] iWdent Buchanan and B J. Walker. *rgi not of that class of political editor* vli'o fin J fault simply, to render our- i selves notorious fn the eyes of the world.-? i In other words, we seldom, if ever, strain at a gnat and foolishly swallow a camel. In our connection with the press, it has always ' been our policy to complain of public digni- ' taries as little as possible, and always tlirow : the mantle of dimity around arty whom we Considered wronged or misrepresented. We * shudder At the degrading thought of cn- .. deavorltig to injure a political opjionet, much less those who comprise a pari of the great Democratic family. Notwithsanding these 1 peculiarities in our political mode of war-! J fare, it becomes our painful duty, agreeably to the dictates of truth, honor and justice, to censure President Buchanans conduct in retaining Walker as Governor of Kansas.? We havo examined the matter carefully I with a desire of supporting the administra- l< tion, but we are obliged to confess our want j of ability to soe things as they fcetn to appear to the heads of departments at Washington. In our last issue we conscientious- 1 1 v, and fearlessly denounced Walker's treachcry, at the same time expressed an abiding i confidence iti the justice, wisdom and pru- , dcnce of Mr. Buchanan and hi* able cabinet. We present, to-day, (in an other column) the exact instructions of the administration given to Governor Walker, as the special guide in the administration of the executive 1 affairs of Kansas. In these instructions the ^ President reiterates the great and fundamental principles of the Kansas-Ncbrnska act, in j reference to the vexed and aggravated sub- . ject of slavery, and upon which the Demo ocratic patty sustained itself in the last r memorable Presidential struggle. We see c no very plausible objection to urge against J these instructions. So far as we understand c them, they go to prove Walker guilty of the highest order of treason against the South, and her abused institutions. We have no ambition to make war upon the President, but facts as they now stand, conipjl us to fi ignore his shortsighted jyoliey in retaining o stfch a Judas as Walker in power, after the r unmistakable evidences ho has given of his j talent and peculiar adaptation to meddle with matters entirely foreign to his mission. It was our expressed opinion that he would be promptly chastised by the President for a departure from cabinet instructions, but alas! J we are obliged to acknowledge our eiror n and sad disappointment, for we discover that ^ the obnoxious personage is to he retained. I?>? ^ the conseouences bo what thev mnv ! This being the case, it becomes our painful duW, 1 'd as a faithful journalist, to sound the alarm, ! p and to irn our reader* of the facts as they 1 n really exist. It furthermore devolves upon 1 \\?to cut loose from the administration in llii-' particular, and proc im its course ami poli-1 cy as vsvtorthy ok southern confidence, j HUITOUT on RKSPKCT. j ' We deeply regret the necessity for such a , N stop. Could we remain silent, sustain our j ? self-respect and do justice to a section of the j Union claimed by our wife and children as j ' the home of their earliest infancy, wo would willingly do so. When the President and ? his cabinet discovered the Lilack Republican sj proclivities of Walker, why was ho not im 0, mediately recalled, and branded as having violated executive confidence? In other words, why did not Mr. Uuchanan prove the! priceless and sacred value of those non-inte:-j " vention doctrins as proclaimed in his initni-; e table inaugural address? These are grave j 'j tpiestioHs which we a.-k, our tender footed cutemporaiies of the Uemocralic press (in Louisiana) to answer. Can they do it ?? j a We think not. We level this article direct- w ly at the President and his cabinet, on the I at grounds of their non action. When a I father fails to rebuke a prodigal, and di.?o- ^ bedient son. we take it for granted that ho approves the son's waywardness. It is the non action at Washington that satisfies us p that Walker is sustained and will be contin- o tied in his present high and influential posi- f. tion as Governor of Kansas. Wilt. a..,,!, r.,o,r,,l tin.I Ooillm,, a ?? I 11 = ...... "... ^ ...v.O ...these looking us full in tlie face, how can J I' we do otherwise than repudiate a step so fatal V to the South and the future welfare of the is Democratic parly. f?, Doubtless, Mr. Buchanan is a Democrat, nnd for aught we know, a pure State Rights advoeate, but in this particular instance his ai official tendencies <70 to prove the contrary, t! A Democracy that is not free from section- ai al bias (in * President.) is neither pure nor p] orthodox. We profess to be a national | Democrat, therefore, it would be vile hvpocracy in us to pander to an administration which condescends to retain a political swindler in power, simply because said ti swindler has sufficient sagacity and shrewd- 01 ness to express his treachery in language jr susceptible of a thousand different constructions. The retention of Walker prove's P1 Buchanan's non-intervention docrines a sub- u lime burlesque and a decided humbug. It ic further shows that the Soulh has lost by \ t{ his election, and that bU plvugcs to enforce ! jj the principles of non intervention were meaningless. If the Kansas bill fails in its ohjects, it will be owing to tho treachery of w such vampires as Walker, backed up by the btrong arm of Federal power. those who charge us with attaching too much importance to this matter, are eilher ignorant of the true issue, or careless and in p different as to the future welfare of tho t< South. \\ e repeat, the administration lias j acted badly, and its conduct cannot and ] should not be excused unless Walker Iks re i N called. If matters continue as they now v. leally exist, tho South is wronged out of her 1 legitimate lights, and humiliated beyond the e| po.ver of human description. As at present advised, we dissent from tho Kansas policy l< of the administration, and its agent, Robert ? .f. Walker. We aro neither a factionist p nor a seoesssionist?wo simply go in for u equal rights to the gallant South, too long insulted, robbed and outraged by Frecsc.il fanatics. President Pierce appointed Jleeder, nnd c removed hitn for error* committed. James c Hucbanan appointed Walker, and llie future' p welfare of the vsboU country demands that's # ? 1 , ' hej?hould remove him. We Mend on the Cincinnatti platform ; if Buchanan retains Walker, m cansidtr him off of it. the bluster of the Washington Unoin to the contrary notwithstanding. Southern (Sirtrrpris* W. P.

Tiik Latb Senator Rusk.-?Ad intelligent gentleman residing in tlm city, but who is now on R visit to the cRpitol of Texas on business, writing to a friend, Attributes the lamentable suicide of the late Senator Rusk to a motive, which, if true, (and he states it is widely credited in Texas,) reflects great credit on his character as a man possessed of a sensitive honor, and tends tosof ten the harsh judgement that usually follows the fate of the self destroyer of life. It seems that Senator Rusk's whole nervous system had become terribly shattered by the uncoutrotable sufferings the death of his excellent and loving wife had occasioned.? It is said tlint, while occupying his seat in the Senate, during the pendency of the debate on the Kansns-Nebraska bill, he made an arrangement with his colleague, General Sam Houston, by which it was agreed that both Houston and himself should vote for' the bill. Notwithstanding this positive agreement, Gen. Houston voted against the i bill. Iii the recent (ruhernntminl contest in ? ^ ^ ? --Texas, Genv- Houston being the opposition candidate,'both political parties commenced questioning Gen. Rusk so closely that he tell it was impossible longer to resist the public exposure of Gen Houston. For many years General Houston had been his friend j and companion?his old comrade in arms during the bitter trials of the war of inde-i pendence?they had served together in the United States Senate ; and he became haunt-> ed with t!?ce idea that to live longer would occasion him dishonor. He became the victim to the impression that, under the cir-1 cumstances, his death was a measure of overruling necessity.

I crop would be a large one, even though the < spring had been very cold, and the crop | stunted. The bad stands had been lost sight; of, in the exuberant growth of the plant, I but now planters from different sections inform us that although the cotton weed is abundant, the blooms and forms, and even the leaves of the plant, are shedding off so J rapidly, that there is but little hope of making anything like an average crop. In I some sections, the worms are doing great I damage, and every day the complaint from the farmer seems to increase. We dislike to chronicle reports of this character, from the generally prevailing opinion that there are always an abundant supply of short crops croakers about September anu October, of each returning year. If woj aie deceived in relation to the statement we make about the cotton cmp, then there are hundieds of closely ob?ci viug. experienced, and intelligent planters, who labor under a delusion as to their crop prospects. [Augusta Constitutionalist. i National Division.?The Virginia Conductor, an official organ of the order, gives the following abstract and summary pro eeedings of most direct interest in the late session at Piovideiice, II. I.: "Ciianoes in the Constitution.?Bv the ln*t National Division there were but two changes in the Constitution, and both of them are very immaterial. The first is that capita lax shall not he laid on suspended members, or members more than six months in arrears. Second. No Division can have a hv-law expelling a member for non attendance. 1 lift eoinolaillt is fiOmii-iille Mil,I., ll.nt - I " ?1 3 our Consiiiuiion is constantly undergoing a change. Wo lliitik the complaint is unfounded. We have never known any body, meeting once a year, with power to make changes and innovations, who have exercis ed that power so cautiously and so rarely as the National Division. Upon nn examination, our fundamental laws will ho found to j ho substantially the same now| that they were twelve years ago. We feel it to be a duty, as well as a pleasure, to do justice to the National Division on this subject. "The New Ritual.?The national Division has adopted a new Ritual, to be published and brought into use by the 1st of January, 1838." We understand this now* ceremony is made up of the old Ritual and the one now in use, partaking, however, more largely of the old. We are glad that tho preponderance is in favor of the old, since we could 1 not get the old restored ;n toto, Our delegates did all 'hey could to accomplish the wishes of the Grand Division of Virginia on this subject, but failed in their efforts?so that wo n.ust content ourselves with yielding a cheerful compliance to the const luted majority."

Mr. SAMI1F.I. MnOltR who departed this life on the 2d of August Inst, in the sixty-sixth year of his age. after a long and protracted illness, duiiug which his sufferings were very severe. The decensed was a native of Laurens District, where he resided till his marrige in 1825, since which time he has teen a resident of Greenville District. In youth, having no advantages of fortune. or kind friends to cheer hiru on his way, he. nevertheless, succeeded through his own energy and exertions in obtaining an excellent education. The energy, displayed in youth, marked the whole course of his life. Through his public duties and services, he became well known to many of the citizens of our District; and his highly moral tone of feeling, his strict integiity, and detestation of everything low and mean, to gather with the firmness and independence of his principles, commanded the respect of all who knew him. His own early life, hnving taught him the value of friends, ho was ever kind to those in adversity. He was a gentleman of the "old school,'" hospitable and kind to friends and strangers ; a true patriot and lover of his country and its institutions *, the modern system of politics, in which self interest and love of spoils, (not love of country) are so largely predominant, was peifectly abhorrent to his feelings and sentiments. But why say moro of the virtues and use ful life of a fiiend and fellow-citizen, whose character and standing are so generally known. Our community has indeed sustained an irreparable loss, and sympathises deeply with the bereaved family in their afflictions ; but we trust that released from earthly trammels, he is singing the glorious song of redeeming grace in Ileaven. He was for many years before his death, a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church ; and early in his sickness, expressed a perfect resignation to the will of the Grand Disposer of human events. A wife, three children, and ninny friends and relatives mourn his death. " May we all meet in Heaven." Amiccs.
