J* *L?*kv*ud? ; We copy the following from the Memphis valsnohe: It in a singular fact that those who have heretofore been regarded as the most violent Union men, are now the most ultra upon the slavery question. We notice that the most zealous supporters of the compromise of 1850-'51 are now the most hostile end inve terate enemies of every description of oora promise. 8 ' Ip Mississippi, we s>e proud to see that lUkuy i)t the prominent members of the old Union compromise party are now the staunch advocates of resistance. The Jackson Flag the Brandon Republican and the Port Gib son Herald, the leading supporters of the Union party in 1851, have plauted them, selves on their rights and are for resisting any further encroachments. They see thai the compromise of 1851, instead of being m u final adjustment " of the slavery Question. ijA3 uun iiitrwuru mc n^unimn, vuiu R?neu as an invitvtion for further %ggre*sion. .; Certain it is, that we find in Alabama all Krtiea opposed to further concessions.? tring h recent visit, we were no less surprised than gmtified to find such a unanimi tv of public sentiment. At Tuscumbia. we fouhd CM. L. 11. Thornton, a most zealous champion of the Sou'hem rights. lie seem* to tliiftk that the crisis upon the slaven question, which has been so long pending befoie the country, has at length arrived, and that it Irehoove* the peoplo of the South to decide which is worth the tn??*t, the Con titution or the Union. Col. Thornton was a friend of the compromise, in the Union trfiggle of 1851. In Lauderdale county,'we did not find . n single opponent to the admission of Kansas. No Southern traitors were there to join Alrolitionists in shouting 44 fraud " and 41 swindle " against the Lecompion Constitu tion. Hon. William li. Wood, the old wheel horse of Whiggery, the friend of the Union, the leader of Americanism two years ago. we found an unconipiotnising defender and fearless advocate of 8outhern institutions. It'afforded us unspeakable pleasure to find our old political enemy, but e>f?eined per onal friend. Major James II. Witherspoon, the ardent friend of the South in the present struggle. In 1851, we sung, with Major Whlierspoon, the satne doxology to the Union tune, and we again strike hands in tho same cause?the cause of Southern rights. Major Witherspoon sees that if ITanana iu n.Ioot???! on<) I l?o f T tt i< .?? Kuril an outrage, the institution of xlatcn riH-noon l?e numbered among the thing* that were; for Hushed with such a victory, the Abolitionists will gain new strength and new courage, and will not rest until they crush the last vestige of slavery, lie ha* made up his mind, and when the time comes will be found at his post. In North Alabama where Maj. Witherspoon is known, it i* useless for us to speak of his high position, and to proclaim how much influence and support the South gains by hit adhesion to her rights. With this array of strength, the South can welj afford to scorn the disaffection of stUall-fry demagogues, and treachery of editors who, in selecting Southern soil for their bomea, seem anxious to pollute it with the corriiptibns of the land that still holds them and their principles in such blissful retnein berance. Kentucky United.?We are pleased to seo from the following, which we find in the Louisville Courier, that Kentucky stands as a unit in support of the Administration.? ' The Democracy is now, to all intents and purposes, the Southern party, Htid the course of events ia proving that all outside of it. who - are fighting for its overthrow, are unsafe on issue that concern the South : ' " A room twenty feet square would hold every anti Lecompton Pcmoeratin Kentucky without being crowded / On the Kansas question the Democracy of Kentucky may bo said to lie an unit. The little sound who have, will) Douglas, gone over to the Bla--k Republicans, are so insignificant as noi to be sufficient to form an exception to thegetteial rule. Not only the Democrat* ert mnnse. but an overwhelming majority of the Know Nothings of this Slate, nro with President Buchanan on the Kansas question, and K n tuckv is at this moment more Rtronglv an I decidedly Democratic than ever it was Whig; and with the issues now claiming attention, her political character may be regarded -s fixed for the next twenty years at least. Slithas changed because interest, duty, principle and patriotism reqniied it, and she will in her new position he found as firm, steadfast and unswerving as she was in her old name.'' Government Fi'NKKAL*.?The proteat of the late Colonel Benton against the experuii tare of public money on account of his death, ryad in the Mouse on Friday last, reminds u* of the fact that among the last words of the late Capt. Black, long a useful and honored member,of the United States House of Representatives, waa an vainest request that the Government should not spend a dime to bury hiin ; as he believed such expenditure to he unconstitutional. Thus he died, illustrating the sincerity of bis persistent ideas when in full vigor of health and mind, of the limitations of the Constitution of the United States. [ Washington Star. t>k4tn or Col..

Mr. Enierprite?1 notice that" Vivacity," bettsr known in this community as " Gho?t," "John O. Winter," etc., lias again come forward in the last number of the IVue Carolinian, lie is, evidently, desirous of notoriety, and your humble correspondent is anxious to gratify his propensity in this respect, by giving him another round. 1 pas* by the epithets of " blackguard," " puppy," and other polite uames which he is pleased to call " l'atrol," considering them as bagatelle, and take up the fellow as I come to him?and dispatch him as briefly as the small kpnec you have allowed mo will permit. 1st lie denies the charge of drunkenness, and pronounces it a lie, and calls upon several gentle I men u> prove what lie says. I reply to this, by saying that I have in my possession the certificate* of two of the patrol, and the evidence of both the town marshals, that he was drunk on the night of the 'Idth of February last, whilst in Qreenvi.lt. He can ace theae certificate* by calling on the chief inurshal of our town. I would aak him whut became of him on that night, after being turned back by the marshal, and where he was returning from, when again met by the patrol, at an hour of the night when aeber men should be houaed, "when church-yard* yawn and drowsy watchmen sleep'!" Perhaps he was playing " Ghost" 2d. He still persists in calling people " swellheads," as if he had .not been at one time the most consummate swell-head in Greenville. (I can see him now holding the ribbons behind a well-known claybank, and traveling at the rate of 2:40, causing strangers to believe that he was proprietor of some considerable establishment Some of hie fast debts, 1 believe, remain unpaid.) " Pride goes before a fall," and it is unnecessary to tell him of his failifbe. His creditors are aware of that fact 3d. He says that the people of Greenville "think it a mortal offence that aoy one should visit their town and not land each individual ttwell-hcad and upstart aa a Solomon." Thinking thus will not prevent them from nailing base slanders to the counter that mean and malicious men may write. 4th.

[rOR THE SOUTHERN ENTERPRISE.] Afr. Editor?I see in the Patriot and Afountaineer, of the 15th inst., the second communication from "Peter Progress," on the subject of opening a new road, the intention of which is so barefaced that it should he noticed. Now. Mr. Editor. I do not wish it understood that I am opposed to road improvements. 1 am a strong advo cate for good roads, and some new ones, too, where tliev are needed and judiciously laid out, but there. is so much self interest at 3!?ke in the proposed new road, that I will proceed to lay before the public a few objections to it. In the first place, we have now in our immediate road division a* many roads as we can keep up We work our twelve days on the roads, besides the heavy road tax that is laid on the District for Bridges, and what was the condition of the White Horse rond. the Wnddill's Bridge road, and the Hutlietford and Spartanburg roads. The condition of the Buncombe road needs no comment. It has not been woj^pd f There is only some eight or ten regular hands to wtiilr it h%r f.ntr milnu m*%A ? ' * ' _ .. .... ...... III n i unu Ul 111 11CII more importance limn nil llie oilier road* in our division, both to the town, Distiict and Stale. Where are the hands that used to keep the Buncombe road up! They are taken off to work private roads for the benefit of one or two private gentlemeil. In the second place, the road proposed bv ' Peter Progress n will run through a wet pijie claysotl, a portion of it flat, and a por '.ion quite broken, l?e*ides three or four swampy branches, and the wide swamp acros* the Long Branch, which would make it one of the most difficult roads to keep up. and would be impassible in the winter.? The present location of the White Horse road is on the ridge, and i* decidedly the best location that can be made in that quar ter. and which is now an old established road, which would have to be abandoned if | the prujMised new road is ojiened. for the J want of hands to work it, which would interfere with the road through Mr. Thus M Oox's faitn to the new bridge across Saluda, which i* decidedly the most important route from <?ieenville C. II., to the Saluda portion of Pickens District, and which would even tlinllv be the shortest an.i t?e?? ?.-. ? ?? l?:_u en* C. II. And, furthermore, person* who wish to Itaol wo<k! to town. And l"gs to the ;raw mill, woukl much prefer a private mad to a public one, which, in the winter time, when wood in wHnted, would be no cut up that they could not hAul more than half h loud. But why i* it ao important that ihe public should open a road and build and keep in repair bridge* for the benefit of Mr. McBsKand Col. Irvine to haul their wood to town I There must be some other motive behind the screen. Who ia "Peter Pro grees !*' It can't be Peter of the June* Turnpike, for that Company had already power to build a road to Greenville C. II.. (at their | own expense.)_ and collect toll, b?o ; but they found that we had road* enough after getting down the mountain, ancf have already turned over the lower end of their road to the public, to be worked by taxes, and they catch the toll on the mountain. It must be another Peter, who we will dub Peter Sly, to distinguish them. Said Peter ia a farseeing man. and, by working by piece meal, ha* already thrown upon the public three different roads, on his own laad, tc enhance their value at lire expense of the public, and to give only one little item of the coat of said road*. One of hi* liille bridge* coat the tax-payer* of Greenville Di*trict ninety-*even d<>ll*r* *nd fifty ceni*. Now, 1 em a lit tie afraid the two Peter* are colleagtiing together in tho proponed new road ; the one named " 8lv," to enhance the value of hi* own land*, and the other to pocket the cash at the mountain in the way of toll, and both at the expense of the District. And again, said Peter Sly i* *o lenaciou* of roads that he can't even lay out ? road aero** the' country without turning the end of it, with a * Grecian bend," toward* hi* own pretnlre*. I have endeavored to put tha ball of retrenchment in motion, and hope that the public, who have the road* to build, will take the subject up and investigate it. We already work our twelve days on the road*, independent of the heavy taxes upon our District. Now, 1 know that Peter Sly will look up on this a* a malicious assault upon hi* private interest, but it is bett- r that than for our poor farmer* to be called out to work on private road* twelve day*, and it will probably soon be twenty day* for the benefit of tbo two Peters.

They have agreed to locate it at (Jreenville. provided South Carolina will contribute one hundred tnousund dollarato its endowment, to be met by another hundred thousand dollars from the other States. Of the amount to be given hv South Catolina, the dime of Greenville District, hv a vote of its own citizens, at a public meeting called to consider this matter, was put down at twen tv five thousand dollars. A few citizens have already aubscrilicd sixteen thousand dollars of this amount, and to the rest of the District is left the balance?nine thousand dollars. This must he made up amongst us, and at once. The canvass of the State in general, thus far made, p oves that it will require every dollar of what can he elsewhere raised to make up the balance of the one hundred thousand dollars, and unless wc are willing to see the enterprise fail, our eit iiona must make up the amount reaaonablv legarded u their share. We have until the first of May to secure it in IkukI* and cash. At that time the Convention called for the organization of the institution, will meet at Greenville, and it is not unlikely that the opportunity having been given us to secure its location among us, and we having failed to embrace it. there will be other applicants for an advantage which, it is every whet e felt, is, to a town of our size, particularly with its institutions of learning, of iucalcutable value.
