A Historicalpahallel.-?The Mobile Heraid
in commenting on the resolutions by which
' Virginia has countermarched,- gives the follow j
ipg illustration, at onee pertinent and impresTOne
cannot bat advert to the condition of
. .Greece and of Athens, at the time of the Persian
invasion, when we consider the 'position of
'! - the Sooth and pfSouth Carolina. .Our institutions
are the subject of incessant and unwarrantable
attacks through the northern States.
' Virginia is not afraid to say that.'- They are
1 attacked from abroad,'and thus beleagured,
what is our condition! We are afraid to speak
to one another?
W The first preparation of the Persians, says
the historian, "did not produce the effect which
might have been anticipated in the Grecian
' states. Far from uniting against the common
fiie, they still cherished a frivolous and unreasoning
jealousy of each other. SeVbrftl readily
sent the symbols (earth and water) of their allegiance
to the Persians, including trie whole of
Bmotia, except only the Thespians and Platoons^
The more timorous states imagined
themselves safe from the vengence of the bar"
barians: the more resolute were overwhelmed
with dismay. The renown of the Median arms
was universally acknowledged. Even united
mknU navv of Greece seemed insufficient to !
"*V "?<"V J
contend against such a foe; and divided among
themselves, several of the Suites were disposed
rather to succumb than resist; "And here," says
the f ither of history, "I feel compelled to assert
an opinion, however inviduous it may be to
manv. II the Athenians, terrified by the danger,
had forsaken their country, or subruited lo
the Persians King, there would have been no
resistance by sea. The Spartans, deserted by
theirallies, would have died with honor or yield*\
<jd from necessity, and all Greece have been re-,
duced to the Persian yoke. The Athenians
were thus the deliverers of Greece. They ani.
7 taated the ardor of those states, which yet were
faithfully to themselves; and next tp the gods,
. .they, were the true repellers of the invader.
v- -Even Uie Delphic oracles, darkapdoiiiinons as
th'*y were, did not shake their purpose, nor in
rduce them to abandon Greece." The Delphic
oracles in the darkned counsels of the. Virginia
resolutions have come: we shall see with what
effect opon the anterrified and heroic people to
whom they are addressed. ' <s '

lived for many weeks on roots and such things
as tbey could pick up, hut finally 1 ecoining so
pearly famished with hunger, that one of the
men ppoposed that they should cast lots to see
. which of the three should bo killed and eaten
by the others; but Henry would not agree that
bis wife should cast lots, for it it should fall up
on her to be killed, he could not eat a mouthful
of her, So the two men agreed that the

THE UNION JOURNAL.
We learn, by our exchanges, that a new pa- i
per is proposed to be published at Unionville, i
3., C., by Mr. R. A. Mc Knight; the first number
to apfrear about the 1st of Jane, 'Oris ]
Journal, we are assured, will be truly Southern 1
in politics, and that it will strike for. Southern
Rights and a Southern Confederacy^- in any 1
mode by which resistance can be made niostef- 1
feetOal. This is well; for Mr. McKnight nor 1
Mr. Any-body-else could successfully1.establish
a journal in. the enlightened and patriotic District
of Union, if Its politics consisted of noth- J
iug more than a blazing Yankee heading puff- 1
ing letters, and abusive denounciation of the
acts of tire Legislature. One thing is certain; 1
the Union Journal, with the nssuranccs given, 1
will nor+;e chosen by Mr. Webster as publisher
of the laws of the U. S., or come out in its I
first number with a six column government ad- 1
vertismerrt Oh, no, Mr. McKnight, you can I
have none of this; neither will you receive sweet
letters of coinineidation and encouragement I
from Northern abolitionists?nor epistles from ,
Southern patriots, whose fame "is said to <
be" as wide as the Republic, and who own. i
"we are informed, "a thousand negroes, yet I
" we learn, " with all their propriety and i
patriotism, are determined, " as we are as- i
sured," on leaving the State at the very first ;

The Mississippi Plalforvu.?We perceive |
from the Natchez Courier, that the renegade, <
Poote, stated in a recent speech delivered by I
him at Jackson, Mississippi, that if elected to <
the Convention of the State, which is to meet
in November next, he would abide by the Georgia
platform?acquiescence in the past, and a j
distinct marking of a line for the future, beyond
which the North must not infringe. This, he I
thinks, should be introduced verbatim in the
November Convention, and passed without delay,
after which that body should adjourn. i
Mr. Hooker, one of the Southern Rights j
candidates for the Convention, in Hinds L'ouu- i
ty, iu reply to this, stated that he desired the i
Convention of November to demand of the Gen- I
eral Government a running of the line of 30,30
to the Pfteifio; a-division of the State of California,
and a repeal of the law abolishing the i
slave trade in the District of Columbia. He I
desired a Convention of the Southern States to I
be called, which should ruake the same demand.
In the event of the refusal of Congress to do
this, he was for immediate and unconditional secession.
These are the two platforms, as we understand
from our excti uiges, whi- h are submitted
tor the consideration of the people of Mis- <
sissippi, and we are much gratified to be eha
bled to state that from present appearances,
the latter is' far more popular than the former. 1
The Vicksburg 8rnliuel, of the 5th inst,
commenting on the meeting at Jackson above
alluded to, says that Mr. Hooker vanquished <
Foote at every point, so much so, that the little
trickster was evideutly chagrined and cbapfullen.
Benerolent Mot ire*.?If we closely attend to
the operations of our mind, and carefully oh- I
serve what passes within us, at that very inI
stant, when we are doing a charitable or friendly
office, I am apt to think we should find, that t
the pleasure, winch results from it, arises either ;
from a sense, that what we are doing, may i
procure us the approbation of men ; or it proceeds
from a sense of having done our duty,
and recommended ourselves to the favor of I
the Deity. Our benevolence, as far as it is ow- j
ing to the former, is not virtue but a desire of ;
f.une and distinction ; as far as it is owi?g to j
the latter, it is virtue, virtue founded upon the I
I love of God. Joy undoubtedly, like the light < <
of the sun, never rebounds so strongly buck I
again upon ourselves, as when it comes reflected
to us from others. The grosser pleasures
i soon flatten upon the sense, and grow insipid i
to a well turned inind; but then we feel the )
most exquisite and delicate, as well as most I
lasting touches of pleasures, when we comma- i
! nicate it in any great degree, to those about I
us. I

Newspaper Postage,?The Postmaster General
has derided that under the new postage
law, which takes etil ct on the 1st of July next, 1
weekly papers only are entitled to circulate <
free of postage in the county where published, I
and that the office of publication is the starting I

his Excellency, Gov. Means has conferred the 1
appointment of Ministerial Magistrate on I
Charles H. Rliett, Esq., in place of Thos. Mar- I

Shocking affair in Anderson District. ? We 1
learn from the Anderson Gazette, that a negro .
man belonging to Mr. Silas Massey, of that 1
District, made an assault on his master on the
13th inst., which enmo nigh proving fatal. Mr.
Massey was in his buggy, when the negro fell j
upon him with a club, and seriously injured
him on his head and legs. The horse became

In the Philadelphia Court of Quarter .Sessions
on Saturday, the following decision was
rendered by Judge Parsons:
Important Decision?The Right of an Occupant
of a House to compel Persons to leave the
Ground in Front of it.? On Saturday, David
Vondersmith was before the Court on a writ
of habeas corpus. He was charged with an
assault and battery on Andrew Kee, the keeper
of a hackney carriage. The facts are, that
Kee was standing in front of the United States
Hotel, when he was ordered to leave by Mr.
Snider. The latter called the defendant to ar*
rest him, which he did, and took him to the
Mayor's office. It was for this that the prosecution
was brought. Kee alleged that he.went
to the hotel to look for a gentleman who owed
him money, and that he was not inside of the
hotel. Jndge Parsons said he would decide
the question presented upon the first principles,
rvirtioo chntllll lip plMlirlv

understood. Everyman owns the ground in
front of his house. He has given to the public
a right to pass and repass over it, but in all
other respects it is as much his property as any
other part of the premises. No one has a right
to stand or carry on any business in front of
any man's house, and if he is thus annoyed and
notice the party to leave and he don't, he has
a perfect right to use sufficient force to compel
the offender to go. If such was not the law, a
person might set up a fish stand under another's
parlor window, or any other obnoxious business.
A man keeps a public house to entertain
strangers and travellers, and no one has a
right to come about his premises to interfere
with hk customers or guests. It has been held
by the Court -that men and boys have no right
to collect at corners of street At the last
term of Court, a case where arrests were made
by an officer, of persons who had collected around
a bouse where an unfortunate female who
made a uoke resided, it was laid down that the
police had m right to disperse them. When Kee
was told to leave the place by the p oprietor,
he ought to have done so. His refusal to go
jave the "proprietor a right to take him by the
collar aud put him off the pavement, or call a
public officer to do it, which was the wiser
coarse*' Vonderamitli having done nothing but
bi? duty, be was accordingly discharged from
custody.

And his guard, falling, crushes him to death;
Not happiness herself makes good her name,

How distant oft the thing we dote on most,
Prom that for which we dote felicity 1
The smoothest course of nature has its pains;
And truest friends though even wound our rest,
Without misfortune, what calamities!
And what hostilities, without a foe!
Nor are foes wanting to the best on earth.
But endless is the list of human ills,
And sighs might sooner fail, than cause to sigh.

iW aie much obliged to our freed Mr. Lemmond
for his kinHneu.*, and are^'eased to see the
California paper*; as well as hfcletter, which may
be found in another column, We will be pleased to
hear from him oflener. s . ;
Attention.
We invite attention to the advertisement of Mr.
Boone of the Temperance Hotel, who proposes
to furnish accommodations, in the way of eating,
to the Officers of the 5th Brigade, who may feel
disposed to give hiin a call at the Encampment,
commencing on Monday the l9th May next. We
feel assured that Mr. B. will do all that he can
to render his guests comfortable in the way he
proposes.
Another Daily Paper.
We have received specimen numbers of a new
Dailjr, commenced in Columbia, under the title of
the Commercial Transcript, published by Messrs.
HaigHt & BrotJghton, who are represented as
practical printers; it is quite a clever little sheet,
and we hope it may succeed. The Editorial department
is under the control of S. Olin Talley,
Esqr. _
Whitaker's Magazine.
1 We learn that Mr. Whitaker has removed to
Columbia, where his Magazine' The Rights ttf the
South, will in future be published. We earnestly
recommend this excellent Periodical to the support
of the South, which it richly deserve*. Co
I umbra. is last becoming the emporium of the
State for valuable publications.
Change of the Great South-Western Mall.
We see by the Charleston Mercury of Tuesday,
hist, that a very considerable change is about to
be made in the running of the Mails on the Great
South-Western Mail Rqpte.'1 We copy the following
notice from that paper.
(Ikkat Sot/thyvp.{rrkjt?t Mail Roctk.?Welearn
from nn unofficial; bet perfectly reliable
source, that arrangements are about deingmade
with the Post Olfiee Department by which
greatly increased celerity mid facility will be
given to the mails and travel fur the South ami
West. The plan contemplates, we believe, lite
arrival of the Northeru mail in Charleston at
7 o'clock, n. m. and the running of two trains n
day by the South Carolina Railroad Company
between Charleston and Hamburg. The first
j train will leave Charleston ai 8 a. in. and the
second, or express train, at say II 1-2 a. in.,
the first train will leave Augusta at 10 a. m.
The express train is to taken up the mails
when they arrive too late for the early trains,
and reach Charleston or Augusta* as the case
may be. in time to save the connection.
From Augusta, we understand, the Georgia
Railroad will run two trains to Altauta; one a
night train, with the mail; the other an Accoiumodation
train, leavin ? Augusta and Atlanta at
G a. ni.
The enterprising proprietors of the stage line
between Palmetto (the present terminus of
the Atlanta and La Grange Railroad) and_West
Point, the connecting point with the iMontgom
ety Railroad will also run an extra line of(stages
in connection with the Georgia and Carolina
Railroads. 'Die arrangements beyond West
Point we are not apprised of, but we doubt not
from what wo know of the eneriretic and Dub
lie spirited gentleman at the head of the Company,
that the Montgomery Railroad will be
ready to co-operate efficiently with the other
roads in any arrangements to promote the interests
and convenience of the public on the
great Southwestern Thoroughfare.
By these arrangements the train for Colum
bia and Camden would leave Charleston at 8
a. in. and-arrive at hose points at 3 1-9 p. in. in
time to reach Newberry, the.present terminus of
the Greenville Railroad, and Wjnnsboro, the terminusof
the Charlotte Railroad, at 7 or 8 o'ckx k
p. m. Stages leaving these points, say at8 or 9
o'clock, p. m. would arrive at Greenville by 12
or 1 p. m. the next day, Yorkville at 10 or 11, j
a. in. and Charlotte, N. C. the same evening.
This would reduce the time from Charleston to
Greenville or Yorkville to a day and a half, and
to Charlotte to less than two days, while by
the present arrangements, it requires two and a
half to three days to reach either of the places.
