~ATOU ST A. GA:
Tbnnda)' Evening, Feb. 11, IW3^.
~ our Kidnapping President.
,‘ \ grave error/’ says Mr. Buchanan,
as he seeks to reconcile the South to an
other outrage upon the rights of one of
her sons. But he knows that the South
ern people always have been quieted by
talk, and he is fully convinced that they
don’t know the diffeience between
words and substance. A few telegraph
ic despatches to the effect that: “lhe
Administration is said not to approve
entirely of Com. Paulding's course,"
and everybody that we know of has set
tied down to the belief that Buchanan
is the incarnation of fidelity totlie South
and to law. Is it not passing strange
what simples heal wounds in Southern
hearts ?
But,” says our jewel of consistency,
as he speaks from his Northern mouth,
‘•Paulding’s motives were good, and the
result of his action will benefit the
country;’’ meaning thereby that it will
assist in making one of his clique our
next President. It cannot be too often
repeated that the most important busi
ness in the opinion of our rulers is to
fill offices. The distribution of the pub
lic plunder is the only business which
has been carefully attended to in this
country, since the days of Andkuw Jack
son.
Look at and contemplate the alarm
ing fact, if anything can alarm us now
a-days: “A grave error” committed
by a man who ought to know some
thing, and that error unpunished! aye,
unceti6ured 1 The venial error of Gen.
Jackson at New Orleans received the
severest rebukes at the hands of a res
cued country! He committed, in a
great emergency, an act which, being
slightly irregular, saved New Orleans
from the havoc of fire and sword. No
one was injured, and, under the circum
stances, no one could have been wrong
ed. But there wis danger of a “prece
dent,” and the hero suffered, lest some
evil might come upon the nation in the
distant future, Contrast the two cases.
Jackson violated, to use the harshest
possible term, a national law. Paul
ding violated an international law,
and in doing so totally disregarded and
struck a direct blow at the right of ex
patriation. The former was abused,
the latter lauded!
Now, let who can, tell us why Buch
anan and his tool, Paulding, are not the
greatest and most criminal kidnappers
on the globe? They have taken the
Navy of the United States, entered for.
eign territory, seized upon its citizens,
and hurried them into captivity, lest
the North should bo alarmed ; to assuie
the North that the face of this Adminis
tration is, and ever shall be, set against
the extension of slave territory—not in
this country—but on this continent!
We hold the right of expatriation to
be an inalienable right. This country
maintained that right in the war of
1812. Daniel Webster maintained it in
his letter to the Austrian Minister upon
the rescue, by Capt. Ingraham, of Mar
tin Kosta. This right implies the
right to give allegiance to another gov
ernment. Allegiance implies other
rights, of protection to property and
life. Wm. Walked and his comrades
hail expatriated themselves and had be
come citizens of Nicaragua. That point
has not been denied. Pierce’s Admin
istration acknowledged it by the recep
tion of President Walker’s Minister.—
Then Walker must have acquired
rights in the country to which he trails
/erred his allegicnce. One of those wav
his liberty, unmolested by any powei
foreign to the State of Nicaragua. Capt
Davis abducted him—-kidnapped him
Therein ibis nation made war upon the
sovereignty of Nicaragua. No mattei
if it did save Walker from destruction
It does not extenuate the guilt of Piero
and Pay 's, that good come of evil
Walker was entitled in common jus
tice to seek and obtain in this country
the means of reinstating himself iu the
position from which Davis had taken
him. It was nobody’s business, but bit
own, whether that was a desirable posi
tion or not. Ho asked of this country
only neutrality. He was entitled to it,
but be did not get it. Whether or not
he is the rightful President of Nicara
gua, was not a question to be adjudged
by us. It was sufficient for us to know
that lie was a citizen of that Republic,
held in unjustifiable durance by us.—
He -President or private citizen —bore
on himself the sovereignty of Nicara
gua. James Buchanan and Paulding
made war upon that sovereignty and
Aggravated the criminality of the deed
by invading the territory of a nation
with whom we were at peace, it l.
James Bucu an an and his abettors who
have violated our neutrality laws. Itisj
they who arc “pirates, freebooters and!
robbers.”
In any light in which the treatment 1
of Walker can be looked at, it is sim
ply and only an outrage, instigated by
a devilish determination to sacrifice;
anything and everytiiing to the demon
of party, and enacted in defiance of the
best established doctrines of our gov
. eminent.
Perhaps some of our readers don’t
understand, or understanding don’t
feel the fact that the whole manage
ment of the Walker affair lias been a
pure concession to the demand of anti-
Slavcry, to bribe and coax Northern
Democracy' to stick to the party. No
body can tell wliat they will yet de
mand, but he is a fool who can fc see
that demagogues, who aspire to of
fice, will give all they' demand.
One thing more and we have done for
the present. There are those, who with
hypocritical Buchanan, pretend to jus
tify the decision of Walker upon the
ground that fillibustcring will lower our
reputation for national honesty, and
involve us in difficulties with ether na
tions. We answer all such notions
thus : Suppose this country at war with
Spain. If, then, the United States may
seize upon an expatriated citizen, wliere
ever found, and punish him because lie
is making war upon somebody with
whom they are at peace, why might not
England seize one of her expatriated
citizens, who, in a United States vessel,
should be making war upon Spain,
with which country England is at
peace ?
W hen allegiance, on the pari of the citizen
ceases, responsibility, on the part of the govern
ment for the act of the individual, ceases
also. ®
Southern Extension*
If the free States under the influence
of legislation or the results of climate
and necessity, as it is claimed, are to re
ceive all of the present territories of the
United States, things in a few years will
stand as follows :
Area.
Present Slaveholdiug States, Sol ,508
Non-Slavehold’g 012,697
Add Territories, 1,372,061 —2,084,C58
Excess free States, (square
miles,) 1,233,150
For this absorption and appropriation,
if the South were to endeavor to set off
what should be equal by purchase or
otherwhise, Southern territory now be
yond her limits, the following would he
required :
The whole of Mexico, 1,033,834
Half of Central America, 101,050
All of the West India Islands,
including Hayti, Cuba, Ja
maica, &c. 91,403
1,231,296
If the North then mentions British
America, Cape Horn must be the other
end of the dilemma. But jesting aside,
in the whole future of this great conti
nent, have our Northern friends the se
rious intention of confining our powers
down to tiic few thousand square miles
which they have apportioned to us, and
which we now, they stem sometimes to
say, hold by their sufferage? —De Bow’s
Weekly Press.
A Stew Route to the Pacllic.
We congratulate the country, says the
Stales, on the prospect of an early relief
: from the oppressive monopoly of the
■ Panama Company, which, iu the ab
sence of all competition, sets no bounds
to its exorbitant charges on the passen
gers to California.
The Tehuantepec Company proposes
to carry the mails to San Francisco in
one-third less time and for a third less
compensation. It engages to make the
trip in fourteen days at the start; but,
when the road across the Isthmus is re
duced to smooth and regular working
. order, it will be accomplished in twelve
days. The opening of the Tehuantepec
route absolutely marks a new era in the
commercial relations and military inde
pendence of the United States; and,
.vithout taking into the estimate the
•ssential advantage of multiplying our
roads across the American Isthmus, its
value, as the shortest and most easily
iefended line of communication with
mr Pacific States, is beyond all compu
tation.
Next to a railroad through our own
territory, this is the most important, be
cause it is literally the most American
route to the Pacific.
The- Macon Committee—Price of
Provision h.
The Chronicle Sentinel of yesterday
morning, contains the following forcible
illustration of the anti-bank movement,
now in full blast all over the State :
The Macon Committee and Meeting,
were evidently greatly distressed at the
idea, that the Bank bill, passed by the
Legislature, had “compelled the poor
Mechanic to pay nearly double price for
all the necessaries of life. The Com
mittee and Meeting were evidently la
boring under a sort of monomania on
the subject of Banks and Bank suspen
sions. They probably had a theory on
the subject, and were determined to es
tablish the correctness of that theory,
| if assertion, broad, unsupported asser
tion of a fact, not only without any
testimony to sustain it, but directly op
posed to all the testimony that could
be adduced, would be received by the
people. Unfortunately for the meeting,
the people are becoming familiar with
the intrigues and tricks of the dema
gogues of the day, and they generally
require something more than broad us
sertion to sustain their statements.—
Knowing this, we have taken the trou
j hie to consult our files, and ascertain
j the price of the necessaries of life,
| when the Banks suspended, October 21,
1857 ; when the bill was passed, Decern*
[' her ‘23d, 1857, and when the meeting
1 assembled in Macon, .January 27th,
1 1858. and here is the result of our in
i vestigation:

From the JSeici. I
Washington tiosslp.
The most brilliant party that I have
attended in Washington, was given last
: evening, the rid, by Mrs. Secretary
; Cobb. She entertained the guests ot
three thousand invitations in a manner
reflecting the highest credit. The hon
-1 ors of reception were also shared by two
; lady friends of Mrs. C.
Mrs. Craig was attired in illusion ov
er silk, pink trimming, and flounces.
1 She was tastefully dressed. But the fas
cination of such a lady’s conversation!
makes one quite forget more externals, |
however elegant. All Southern ladies j
are agreeable talkers but the irapres
: sion left by this fair Southron was as |
the perfume of the flowering magnolia, ;
which sends its sweet odor upon the
gentle airs of Summer through all the
‘ forests to return again upon the nie
; mory, when the scentless power has
, perished.
Miss Clayton (daughter of the First j
' Assistant of the Treasury) was greatly !
admired for simplicity and vivacity of
manners. Dressed in white tarleton!
and flounces ; her youth and personal !
1 charms rendered here one of the belles!
; of the evening.
Passing to the guests it is difficult to
know where to begin with company so:
distinguished in rank, talent, beauty!
! and accomplishments. It will not bei
invidious should 1 praise a friend or neg-;
lect one in such a crowd. Among the i
gentlemen variously distinguished and ?
; their ladies in escort the following were |
conspicuous :
Gen. Scott, U. S A Gen. Houston, j
U. S. Senate, Gen. Persifev Smith, U. S. 1
A., and lady, elegantly attired inma-i
roon velvet, Col. May, U. S. A , and la-1
dy, formerly Miss Law, of New York, I
Col. Jack Hayes, of Texan Hanger dis-j
tinction. Passing among the civilians,!
I noticed Prince John Van Buren, Sec-1
rotary Toucey and lady, Secretary and |
Mrs. Thomson,who was most exquisitely i
dressed in pink i ilk and black lace
flounces, head dress green and cherry,
Senator Yulcee and Gen. MaMicr. State
Senator of New York Miss van Voer
hes, of Brooklyn, New York, a guest of
Miss’King, in both manners and dress
creditably repreeented the “ City of
Churches” and beautiful women.
Destruction of tlic Col. Crossman.
On Thursday evening, 4th inst., about
7 o’clock, the “nigger boiler” of the
steamer Col Crossman exploded, one
mile above New Madrid. The boat took
fire immediately after the explosion, but
it was partially subdued, and no one
apprehended any danger from it forflf- 1
teen or twenty minutes after the explo- '
sion. After the confusion produced by «
the explosion had somewhat subsided, i
and the wounds of the injured being ,
dressed, the alarm of fire wasagain given,
A portion of the crew and some deck pas-
ssengers immediately took possession of
one of the life-boats and the yawl and
shoved off. The life-boat had but four
persons in it, but the yawl was well fill- ■
ed. The remaining life boat, under the ;
direction of some officer of the boat, took
some 18 or 20 persons ashore By this <
time the boat had drifted around, and ]
was floatingjdown Within 200 yards of a .
bar on the Kentucky side, and finally
| lodged on the point of a bar a little be
low Madrid, about one mile below the 1
place where she took fire. The passen- 1
gersfeither put on life-preservers—with J
which the.boat was well supplied—or got
hold of something that they thought -
would hold them up, and then jumped
into the river. Fortunately a pile of
lumber was lying at the stern of the
boat, which enabled many to save them
selves. i
It is impossible to ascertain the num
ber or names of all those who were lost.
The register is lost and all the other
books of the boat, and Mr. Johnson, the 1
first clerk, who could form a better esti
mate than any one else, perished. The
number is estimated at from forty to
fifty. 1
It is rumored that the Board of Mana
gers of the Washington Monument, un- j
able to raise sufficient funds to finish it .
in the style originally intended, have
concluded to build it up with brick an 1 ,
mortar, and plaster it in imitation of ,
marble.
