Why The Restriction? Tlie Carolinian has com? out quite handsomely in. favor of' having-the State represented in the Cincinnati Convention. This is well. But why that restriction as to the nominee of the. Convention!. . Why will no one else do but President Pierce! Why would not Hunter, of Virginja, or. our ownButler mi Aire ? Why. would not any good and true exponent of the very same principles entertained by our present Chief Magistrate suffice? If it sliall so happen that the nomination .fall on Pierce, it will be r glorious thing. But Bhould .it fall on any other man of equal soundness, could we say n?y with any propriety or-consistency ? Let us pause l>eforo adopting this one-man idea. Remember, there nre other statesmen as good as Pierce, nnd as safe, and , as true. It would Ih* hazardous to assert thei-ontrary. If the Carolinian -had said that our delegates ought to go instructed to vote for no man who did not stand on constitutional grounds identical with-those whirh gnid^ the present administration, we should (for one) hare ac**orded ourmost hearty consent. This wouhi.be placing ourselves exn.et.ly along side of Georgia, Florida and Alabama. *? "ii ? prwiwiy me position in line our present duly calls upon us to take. It is only thus that our delegation ran be efficient for any good. We go to unite with our friends in making the best selection possible jn a most important "matter. That selection, by the express announcement of those friends, is to l>e made in strictest conformity. with principles-dear to us nil in common. What more can we a?k? If we fix upon Pierce, irrevocably, where is the use of our going to Cincinnati! at all? Would not our sister States of the South regard our conduct in the light of a mockery? WouUl it not,indeed, be a s enF man.tvARiliin !???* tf -?? ?*?>iriii|r Him iiat^iii *?rn |?TUv??ke tlieir contempt ? We arc sure our respected 'cotempornry will agree with us, that any such pre-decision on our pari would place our delegation in a mo<t awkward position as regards their Southern associate*.?"Principles, not men," is the motto under whir.h we are bound ?o go Into the Convention. Clearlv. our State would and should first vote for Pierce in preference to almost any other man. But if he be pronounced unavailable, and some other man juBt as true (perhaps a Southerner) be regarded by the Convention more secure of election, 'would the Carolinian have us withhold our sanction from the nomination? Surely not.?Edgefield Advertiser. Col. Orr in New Hampshire. Col. J. L. Orr and other members of Congress recently made speeches ?t Concord, New Hampshire, to their Democratic frieuds. Thin in made the text for comment by the Petersburg (Va.) Intelligejicer, and its sneers against Mr.. Fierce and the i)emo<*racy are editorially endorsed hy the Columbia Times. When it is recollected that Itoth these journals belonged to the true K.

The following brief abstract of Col. Orr's speech we take from the telegraphic correspondence of the Boston Po6t: **The next speaker was Hon. Jas. L. Orr, of. South Carolina, who was received with prolonged cheering. He defended the 3outh from the charge so often made against her, that she is constantly aggressing upon the*. rights of the North, and .maintained that it was the North >hich was always infringing upon the constitutional rights of the South. All the South asked was her rights, and to be left to manage her own insritn. tions in. lier own way.

The little fellow seemed glad to get his liberty again and to breathe the fresh air once more. He arrived at Ida destination apparently safe and well. ' 80 far as we are awarif, this is the first ?taat?nce of the transportation of live animals by mails.' But there fa no teb ling to what uses such, a convenient means of public conveyance can be put, when it iaonce in successful operation, and no other way presents itsel. We do riot know as this is a worse perversion of t lie design of Qur p<?stal system, than occasional practices of members of Congress in sending their washing thousands of miles, to their homes, under the mark of public documents, and with their frank of postage free.
