Circumstan ees prevented me from answering your communication by the return mail as re quested. That was, however, not of ma terial consequence, 1 presume 1 could not have attended, even though I had re ceived, at an early period, your letter, de signating the day of the dinner. The oc casion has passed which induced von to write, but as I tailed to answer you belore, I will do it now, lurntsning you wnn an the current news of consequence, ami soli citing in return a few reflections upon mat ters generally. To mingle with, and interchange saluta tions with the people, of E ige 'ombe, ai ways was, and 1 hope ever will be to me. a source of unfeigned satisfaction; bit the) U..n,-n ivWlithis assm-ialion would ;, j part, would have been enhanced, if I could , 1 f 1 ,., nave aecoMipamcu )u m iuhiui, un. homage of our respect to one, who has j made so many noble sacrifices to sustain! QJ Mr. Charles F. Fisher has with the cause of Democracy; to one, who, j drawn from the Western Carolinian,- and amid the darkest period of Federal mis- j announces that the publication of Vhat paper rule, when every ihiug-augured a speedy ; will b suspended for a few months, when dissolution of ihe confederacy, was seen it will be again in Ihe field, under an able doin baitle in the people's cau.se, and by : the powers of his gigantic mind scattering the sophisms of Federal oiators, who were endeavoring so to mould by conduction, the constitution, that it might subserve iheir designing purples In unaffected attachment to the constitutional rights of the great mass, in pure and lof'y patriot ism, and as a profound statesman he stands unrivalled. Upon him rest the hopes of the South. It is useless for me to extol Mr. Cal houn, it has been done often by more gift ed minds, in a far more satisfactory man ner than I could hope to do it; but if all the complimentary epithets contained in the English language were exhausted upon him, the measure of praise would 1101 be commensurate with the distinguished ser vices he has rendered his country. 1 would prefer Mr. Calhoun as the candidate for the Presidency before any other of the aspirants, because, 1 believe him honest, 1 capable, and faithful, and he is a Southern man. 1 fear, from the indications in some . 1 ... . nnirli.rj I Ii I k-i mav h iVf -i tr .Kin 1 11 niir I . party; this by all means ought !o heavou ed, our divisions will assuredly bring do feat to uur cause, and victory to our o-ppo nenis. 1 hough 1 declare my preierenee , forMr. Caihoun, el, should he not be the regular nominee ot the pa;ty, 1 would sur lender my choice; for 1 hold, that the suc cess of our cherished principles is of para mount importance to the elevation of any particular individual. Our political ene mies are looking anxiously for, and alrea dy predicting our divisions, they will fo ment them; let us resolve that, as they pow dissension, they shall reap mortifica tion, and disappointment. The approaching session of our Legisla ture will he important and interesting, the Senatorial and Congressional districts are to be altered, and a Senator to Congress to be elected. Who will he elected Senator? Brown, Saunders, Henry, and others, have been spoken of. I would prefer Henry for several reasons. He has capacity to discharge the duties with credit to himself, and his State, ami he is orthodox in poli tics; and besides, at the call of the Democ racy of his State, he entcied the late gu bernatorial contest to sustain their pi inci pies, when all the chances of success were unfavorable; he made sacrifices of interest, and health, and was defeated. Now that the Democrats have the ascendancy, and toe power ol dispensing honors, it seems to me, that they ought to be recollected, who -have borne the heal, and burden of the day" in the contest. If this rule is not followed, and the paity should lose its ascendancy again, it would be difficult tj prevail upon poisons to enter the lists, when defeat is considered almost certain. In what 1 have said above, 1 lo not mean to be understood as maintaining the opinion, thai mere partisan services with out regard to capacity, should entitle a man lo ohVe; but 1 do maintain as a cor rect rule of action, that when a party gets inio power, it ought to appoint to office those only, who are capable, and who ad vocate the principles of the party. And where there are several aspirants equal in ability, and equal in all other respects, he, that has been most actively engaged in dis seminating the principle?, and has made most sacrifices in sustaining the cause, is entitled in the first place, to the considera- tion of his party. Thi9, you may suppose, resembles the doctrine, that "to the victors )elong the spoil?;" but for the sentiment embodied in the language above, 1 have hiirh authority. I think it was Gen. Washington, if not, it was Mr. Jelierson, who said, that it was perfectly suicidal in any one to appoint to office men, whose political opinions dillered from his, he cause he is responsible for the faithful exe cution of the trust reposed in them. I have more to say to you upon other matters, but I must postpone it until anoth er time. Remember me respectfully to all my friends, and accept my high regard Yours truly. New Cotton.

Butchery in China We find the fol lowing paragraph in (he London Sun of the 3d instant, relative to the last battle in Chi na: "Arrangements wrrc made for an attack in three columns, two of which were gal lantly led by Sir II. Gough and Sir W. Parker, in person. Nothing could exceed the bravery of the troops. They contrived to surround the Chinese, and quite bewil dered them. The carnage was dreadful, being more a butchery than a battle. Ig- i norant of the laws of civilized warfare, the poor creatures knew not how to surrender, and weic massacived. Not less than a thousand ol them, including a great num ber of Mandarins, were k illed, or drowned in the canals; whereas of the Biitish troops only three were killed and twenty -two wounded.
