It is an octavo of four hundred pages, veil bound, in fine large tvpe, ami on good paper. All the booksellers have it tor sale at two dollar. The subject in this work for which we looked most eargerly was the amend ment of the Constitution. It is generally known that this wa Mr Calhoun's last proposition for the salvation of the Union and the security of the South. As many ot our readers who may never see Mr Calhoun's work are no doubt anxious to know the precise nature of the Amendment to the Constitution which he had in view, we lay it before them in his own uords, from page 592 of his work just published : How the Constitution could best be modified, so as to effect the object, can only be authoritatively determined by the amending power. It may be done in vari ous ways. Among others, it might be ef fected through a re-organization of the Ex ecutive department; so that its powers, in stead of being vested, as they now are, in a single officer, should be vested in two, to be so elected as that the two should be con stituted die special organs and representa tives of the respective section in the Execu tive depart merit of the Government, and rt quiring each to approve all the acts of Con gress before they shall become laws. One might be charged with the administration of matters connected with the foreign re lations of the country; and the other, of such as were connected with its domestic institutions; the selection to be decided by lot. It would thus ettect, more simply, what was intended by the original provi sions of the Constitution, in giving to one f the majorities composing the Govern ment a decided preponderance in the Elec toral College, and to the other majority a still more decided influence in the eventual choice in case the College failed to elect a President. It was intended to effect an equilibrium between the larger aud smaller States in this department; but which, in practice, has entirely failed, and, by its failure, done much to disturb the whole system, and to bring about the present dangerous state of things. Indeed, it may be doubted whether the Trainers of the Constitution did not commit a great mistake in constituting a fiingie instead of a plural Executive. Nay, it may even be doubted whether a single Chief Magistrate, invested with all the powers properly appertaining to the execu-J tive department ot. the government, as is the President, is compatible with the per manence of a popular government, especial ly in a wealthy and populous community, with a large revenue, and a numerous body of officers and employees. Certain it is that there is no instance of a popular Government, so constituted, which has long endured. Even ours, thus far, furnishes no evidence in its favor, and not a little against it; for to it the present disturbed and dangerous state of things, which threatens the country with anarchy or disunion, may be justly attributed. On the other hiind, the two most distin guished constitutional Governments of antiquity, botli in respect to permanence and power, had a dual Executive I refer Hi those of Sparta and of Rome. The former had two hereditary and the latter two elective chief magistrates. It is true that England, from which ours in this respect is copied, has a single herediatary head of the executive department of her Government; but it is not less true that she has had many and arduous struggles to prevent her chief magistrate from be coming absolute; aud that, to guard against it effectually, she was finally compelled to divest hitn substantially of the power of ad ministering the Government, by transfer ring it practically to a cabinet of responsi ble ministers, iho, by established custom. cannot hold office unless supported by a . majority of the two houses of Parliament. She has thus avoided the danger of the chief . inagUtrate becoming absolute, and con trived to unite, substantially, a single with a plural executive, in constituting that de partment of her government. We have no such guard, and can have none such, with out an entire change in the character of our government; and her example of course furnishes no evidence in "favor of a single chief magistrate in a popular form of gov ernment like ours, while the examples of former times, and our own thus far, fur nish strong evidence against it. But it is objected that a plural execu tive necesrarily leads to intrigue and dis coid among its members, and that it is in consistent with prompt and efficient action This may be true when they are all elected by the s;,me constituency ; and may be a good reason, wh. re this "is the case, for preferring a single executive, with all its objections, to a plural executive. But the -case is Very different where they are elect- ed by different constituencies, liaviug con flicting and hostile interests; as would be the fact in the case under consideration. Here the two would have to act concur ringly in approving the acts of Congress, and separately in the sphere of their re spective departments. The effect, in the latter case, would be to ratain all the ad vantages of a single executive, as far as the administration of the laws were concerned; and, in the former, to ensureiarmony and concord between the two sections, and, through them, in the government. For, as no act of Congress could become a law without the assent of the chief magistrates representing both sections, each, in the elections, would choose the candidate who, in addition to being faithful to its interests, would best command the esteem and con fidence of the other section And thus the residential elections, instead of dividine - h iijni,h.i;i. - "" ?:ol.dm S k. . :" " :7:.:":t?nicv Part,s oi. ..s; B"uginig enlarge its powers, and- the weaker to defend its rights as is now the case would become the means of restoring harmony and con cord to the country and the Government. It would make the Union a union in truth; a bond of mutual affections and brother hood; and not a mere connexion used by the stronger as the instrument of dominion and aggrandizement, and submitted to by the weaker only from the lingering re mains of former attachment, and the fading hope of being able to restore tlie Government to what it was originally intended to be, a blessing to all. Such is the disease, and such the character of the only remedy which can reuchil. In conclusion, there remains to be considered the practical question. Shall it be applied? Shall the only power which can apply it be invoked for the purpose? The responsibility of answering this solemn question rests on the States com posing the stronger section," &c. A NORTHERN MAN'S OPINION OF THE STATE FAIR AT MACON. We make the following extract from a letter in the New York Times, dited at Savannah. The writer sigri3 himself " Northern Born :" Macon Telegraph.) The great State Fair, at Macon, is now the general topic of conversation. Thou sands have left the low country to be pre sent, and but for the fear of dearth of ac commodation there, thousands more would h gone. The town is overrun, no (we can be procured to sleep, although the citizens freely open their houses to all who come. But all their friends have ar rived and more expepted. Still you are offered the best they can give, aud a hearty welcome to sleep in their parlors, on the sofas or on the floor, which many gladly accept. The Fair will favorably contrast with the great New York and Maryland State Agricultural Fairs. There is not so great a display of manufactured articles, or the same amount of stock on exhibition, but in point of beauty and quality, the Macon Fair will bear a good comparison. The ladies are the greatest attraction, and a more beautiful assemblage of the fair daughters of the South 1 have never seen. They are dressed for the fair, and with a neatness which bespeaks a high grade of intelligence. They are very bespitible and familiar to strangers ; and it warms the blood in a man's heart, and makes his pulse fly quicker, to behold their beautiful forms and the flash ul their dark eyes. Many Northerners are in attendance, and I should not be surprised, from what I saw and heard, if some of the brunettes ot the South should find a home ere North. long in the Great interest is taken in the Cotton Planters' Convention. The most pro minent men in the State are concerned in it, and the determinatien of the people of the South is to establish a direct trade with the continent of Europe. The plans for this object are very various, but all indi cate that a better day is drawing on the South and that she is no longer content to continue her intercourse to the same ex tent as heretofore with the North, whose cities and towns have been built up at her expense, while her Northern brethren are striking at the very root of her prosperity. C- G. Baylor, Esq., our Consul to Amster dam, is in attendance, and has submitted a nroDosition to the Convention. It was unanimously adopted, and steps have alreadv been taken to open the trade. Messrs. G. W. Garmany & Co., of this city, have accepted the agency of a house in Amsterdam, aud in a short time the experiment will commence. Time alone will tell its effect ; but from the interest manifested, and the men of capital inter ested, it bids lair to succeed. The Plan ter of the South can hold his cotton, if he thinks proper ; for the majority of them, at least in this State, are not compelled to sell until disposed to do so. They are wealthy, aud have the means to live within themselves. All that is required to carry out the design of the Convention is a firm determination to do so, and it will become a fixed fact. It will cement the union of these States in a bond of inseparable in terest ; and the North, in time, will be the hewer of wood and drawer of water for the South. It may be visionary, but time will verify the assertion. Thk Fakir Again. Quite an exciting scene occurred at one of our wharyes yes terday. The hands on one of our steamers were engaged in rolling off a cask, when to the consternation and surprise of the persons engaged in performing that opera tion, a voice was heard within the cask : Roll it easv, these darned nails hurt j I'd rather pay passage than stand this." Holding up their hands, their visuals expanded to the size of two saucers, the two laborers exclaimed, that beats the d 1." The mate coming up at this moment, and unaware of the cause of delay, com menced cursing them (or their dilatoriness, when from within the voice again came forth You're nobody ; let me out of this cask !' What's that ?' said the mate. Why, it's me!" said the voice; I want to get out I won't stand this any longer !" Up end that cask," said the mate. 'Oh! don't you ll kill me!" said the voice, "these darned nails prick me! Lookout! don't!' again said the casked up individual, as the men were turning it over. "Cooper," said the mate, unhead this cask and take out that man." As the adze sundered the hoops, and the head was coming out, the voice again broke forth Be easy, now! is there any one about? I don't want to be caught!" Quite a crowd had now gathered round the scene of action,'' when, to the utter astonishment of all the bystanders, a loud guttural laugh broke forth, which made ! e u - i j j . j our hair stand on end, and the cask was i fouHd niied with bacon. What does it mean ?' says one. I swear it beats my time,' said the mate. We enjoyed the joke too well to "blow," as we walked off arm in arm with the l?alrir tf A a." the Vpnt rilrtniuct nnrl magician. Cleveland Herald, MR SECRETARY WALKER'S SPEE.CH AT THE KOSSUTH DINNER. The Hon. -Robert J- Walker responded. He said he rejoiced in the privilege of speaking in the town of Southampton, en deaied, as it was, to Americans byUts re ception of Kossuth. As an American, he felt no miserable jealousy that Kossuth had first landed on British soil, nor would any such jealousy be entertained by his coun trymen. That was due to a country which had exerted itself so much W his liberation. Most of the great fundao&btal principles of the free government oLng land were embodied in the const it on of the United States ; and he wuufebde- clare his conviclicn that if their munici pal institutions were overthrown, the re sult would be anarchy or despotism. That a republic was not under all circumstances, favorable to freedom, was shown by the example of a neighboring land, where half a million bayonets were employed to sus tain the government against the people. The Americans had never indulged in the visions which had dazzled so many in Europe. They had never supposed that la borers would be benefitted by the de- stiuction of that capital without which wages could not be paid. (Hear, hear. ) He was delighted to hear their ill s trio us friend allude to free trade. TheoJmted SUtes struck off half the shacklp-Qom commerce, and, God be thanke, in tended to strike oft all the rest. (Cheers) The people of the United States had al ways maintained, as their able representa tive at that port had set forth in an addreis which he had read with peculiar pleasure, the doctrine of non-intervention. It is but a few years since they were an infant State ; they were now probably approach ing manhood, and they still held sacrl the doctrine that no government had any right to interfere in the domestic affairs of another country. (Hear, hear.J If the people of other countries desired to wear the chains of a despot, let them draw the shackles round their limbs, but if they de sired freedom, let no despotic power be permitted to impose shackles upon them. fney were in favor, then, ot the doctrine of non-intervention, and hoped that every nation in the world would establish tor itself whatever institutions it. might think best calculated to promote its material and other interests. Nor were the Americans propagandists, except so far as propagand ism might arise from the success ct their own example. But he desired now to in dorse the sentiment ot the American Con sul and the people of America wculd be ready to indorse it too that whilst they were opposed to any intervention in the concerns of other countries, the time might come' when, if despots should combine to overthrow the liberties of any nation, the people of the United States would -be pre pared to unite with their ancestors. (Loud cheers, amidst which Kossutli rose and gratefully acknowledged the tone of the Speaker's remarks. ) These islands were from their remarkable insular position, a sort of breakwater of liberty between the American and the European continents, and the Americans felt that if the surges ot despotism were ever to break on their own shore they must first overwhelm this country. (Hear, hear. ) If, then, this alliance of despots, headed by Russia, which was the soul and body of the whule (hear, hear) should attempt to make war upon free governments ; if it should intimate to England, as it did to Hungary, that it must give up its free institutions ; if it should say to England, Abandon your Queen, give up your throne, give up your parliament, give up your trial by jury, give up your habeas corpus, give up all those great fundamental principles which mark you as a free people ;" if these ty rannous demands should ever be made, and the people of England should say to their relatives for they felt that they were related to them in blood, aud in lan guage, and by a thousand endearing re collections of the glories of the past ('cheers,) and they would be related, too, as he believed looking at those two flags (pointing to the flags of the two nations in the room) by the still brighter glories of the future aud if this country should ever say to the united States, I he tunc is come when the -great conflict must com- mence between the principle of despotism and those of liberty" a conflict which he believed was close at hand (hear, hear) there were millions of his countrymen who would delight to flock to the shores of Great Britain, and under its and their standard to overthrow despotism. (Im mense cheering.) Why should England and America united fear the world in arms? ( Hear, hear," and cheers.) Was not the ocean theirs? Did not their commer cial and naval marine amount to nine tenths of the commercial and naval marine of the whole world ? (Hear, hear.) But he would not boast of their power. All he would say w.s, that in America there were 4,000.000 of militia, and be believed that if the day which he had indicated should come the vessels now built, and those which would be created by such an occasion, would not contain the millions who would rush to the rescoe of liberty at the call of their forefathers. (Loud cheers.) As to the welcome which awaited Kossuth in America, he believed it would be a wel come from every heart and every lip ; welcome would beam from every eye. They would take him to their hearts, and nve him such a welcome as had never be fore been extended to any one except their illustrious benefactor, Lafayette. IKs reception would be even more tender. This illustrious man came to them as an exile ; he came to them as a man who, for the present, had been struck down in the cause of liberty. Like Lafayette, he had been in Austrian dungeons, and like La fayette he had suffered for liberty. Every party would strive to do honor to a man who had done more, they believed, for the cause of liberty than any other man of the present century. He would conclude by proposing the following sentiment "Louis Kossuth, without wealth or office, bat more feared by the despots of the world than an army with banners." THE INFLUENCE OF RAILROADS. - A Railroad Convention urae I.. 1,1 t XT. , ' ' ' wan ww mo IICIU (A I XVVW Haven, Conn., on Thursday, last week, for the purpose of taking active measures to finish an air line from New York to Boston. A number of very excellent speeches were made, but the one made by Professor Sil liman. who has recentiv ret n mod Fmm I?.,. . J. i our readers. He adverted to those portions of Europe where he had lately been, that possessed railroads, as being inhabited by a people of superior intelligence. For example, in those parts of Italy, particular in the Pope's dominions, where railroads did not exit, there was squaling misery, rags, and the most importunate begging, while in Tuscany and Lombardy, and other parts of northern Italy, the people showed a bet ter spirit, a high degree of prosperity, and there railroads prevailed. In England and Scotland the progress of railroads was wonderful. The country was covered with them, and he had been on some of them on which the trains went at the rate of seventy-two miles per hour by the watch while the average was fifty miles. They moved faster than the wind, or the winged dove; and it was impossible but that some accidents should take place. He hoped that this would be a model railroad, not only in point of construction but for the vigilance of its police. In Germany he saw all along the railroads, 'a man in charge of every mile, with a signal ready to give warning in case of danger. Though in these countries they were ready to sac rifice men in hecatombs, there ..at less loss of life and limb by railroads in Europe than here; and Europians showed a com mendable care, which Americans lacked He was not so much in favor of going ahead as some people. It was better to look ahead first, and then go ahead. For want of this precaution many went ahead and broke their heads. Scientific Ameri can. From the New Orleans Weekly Delta. PRESIDENTIAL PROSPECTS IN LOUISIANA. There is a perceptible movement in po litical circles in this city, with reference to the approaching Presidential canvass. The whigs generally do not, as yet, evince a very great interest in the matter, beiir; somewhat absorbed in domestic affairs, in arrangements for the Senatorial contest for Gen Down's place, and in preparations for the proper and judicious use of the advan tages which the election has given. Still, however, it isquite evident that the schemes, or long-heads of the party are looking with some interest to the Presidential develop ments. 1 he cue of the party here, is to prevent the nomination of Gen Scott, and secure that of Fillmore. The means for this end is a strict adherence to the Brown Pledge, fto support the Compromise,) so far as Scott is concerned, but a waiver of it in regard to either Fillmore or Webster. Fillmore is decidedly the favorite of the party in this State; he is the only candi date in whose favor resolutions have been passed by the whigs of Louisiana; and even without the Custom-house influence, he will be certain to win here. The democrats being disburdened of the cares of State, stripped of the spoils, State, City and Federal, naturally turn with deep attention and interest to the Presidential contest as their only hope of restoration to political power. Like the beacon light to the tempest-tossed mariner, the Democratic National Convention sends forth a ray of comfort and hope which buoys up the spirit of the party, and reconciles it, in some measure, to present discomfoits. This is, therefore, the subject of primary interest with them. Everytuing depends on the triumph in 18j3. Unaccustomed to such long deprivation of power, such pro longed abstainance from the spoils, the democrats chafe, like unruly steeds, for the race, eager for a contest into which they will throw all their energies. Recent results have rather improved their pros pects, and correspondingly increased their ardor in pursuit. Whilst the whole party is thus thorough ly aroused to the necessity of a powerful aud united effort in the coming struggle. it is quite obvious that strong personal preferences are beginning to be quite man ifest in the ranks. With many, this is i mere predilection, arising from sympathy and similarity of views, with others, it is the offspring of State feeling, a leaning to wards the candidate from one's native stale, but with a considerable party, such pref erence is traceable to purposes more sel fish and designing the hope of promotion and aggrandizement, through personal re lations and influence oyer the candidate. The latter class are the active canvassers, who leave no stone unturned to push for ward the chances of their favorite. We think we can perceive some of this class moving in political circles in our city. Several very statute politicians, who have been for some time in retirement; have been observed of late", working the wires quite assiduouly, and manufacturing the necessary sentiment, to advance the pros pects of one of the candidates for the dem ocratic nomination, whose chances have lately assumed a more promising 'aspect than they had exhibited for some time pre iouslv. We refer to the Sage of Penu sylvania James Buchanan. This gentlemen has very strong friends here, especially among the veterans of the party. He was liberal to the Louisiana democracy, during the time he was Secre tary of State under President Polk, and gave us the only first class Minister we ever had from this State. Mr Slidell's appointment to Mexico ('and we regret deeply that we have not a gentleman of his astuteness and ability now, to repre sent our interests in that country,) secured Mr Buchanan the support and influence of that gentleman, and his numerous friends. Besides, the course of the vete ran politician from Pennsylvania, on the compromise question, has collected around j hiiu that portion of the democracy of this rope, presents something so new on the j uc "sira"u ' 'wwppi wc. subiect that it cannot fail to inrrt all ! nes8 o( Foote, will rule him off the track. fa- Or Ot that measure. To strengthen this claim, it is urged, by his confidential friends, that Mr Buchanan's name will be associated with that of Col. William R. King, of Alabama, or Cobb, of Georgia, or, some even go so far as to suggest Foote. of-Mississippi The recent j . - . ri l. ' inni rhanitAO 111 - t a r rtm a l am aAa nig 0 vnniibca vt in tv HI owing uci effected by the fact that he is a confirmed old bachelor, like Mr Buchanan, and a bachelor ticket' would not be apt to go down with so prolific a race as that which inhabits the United States, and, as for Cobb, he could not carry a single South ern State, on the democratic ticket. These suggestions are thrown out en passant; they are, perhaps, quite gratuitous. But with all these disadvantages, it is quite obvious that Mr Buchanan will not walk over the democratic track. A sturdy opposition is organizing against him, un der the bani.er of the Young Lyou of the West, Douglass, of Illinois. The younger branch of the party the fierce young democracy, are for Douglass. Tlie im pression left by this gentleman on his visit to this city, during the Cass campaign was most favorable. Subsequent occurrences have expanded this feeling, until now the energetic young democrats. go it strong' for Sam Douglas." Dougla has several elements of popularitvfieife. He is voun?. just thirty-eight, is a self-raised man, who by his own energies, has ascended from the cabinet-maker's bench to a seat in the most august legislative assembly in the world, aud though a resident at the North, has a Southern wife, and a South ern plantation. The argument of the young democracy upon the necessity of having sturdy, youthful vigor, indepen dence, and courage, to wield the power of tlie Presidency, possesses great weight in the present aspect of our attairs Polk was a good example of the superiority of the choice of the young, over that of the old democracy. The friends of Douglas have adopted a counter policy to that ot the Huchananites, in regard to the Vice Presidency. they have had the sagacity to perceive that tlie Southern Rights party is the strongest wing of the democracy South ; hence they have inuicaieu ii. m. i. Hunter as their proba ble choice for the Vice-Presidency. Hunter is one ot the purest, ami, at the same time, luckiest men in the Union. His own case is an eminent illustration of the eventual triumph of honesty and man ly deportment. INever a politician or partisan, always a statesman and, honest man, he has triumphed over the most as tute and accomplished intriguants , and political managers, and without solicita tion or effort on his part, in attaining, at an early age, the offices of Representative in Congress, Speaker ot the House of Re presentatives, and Senator of the venera bfe Commonwealth of Virginia. A pro found scholar and philospher,ati ardent patriot and republican, a man who de votes himself to the study of the proper duties of a statesman, rather than to the frivolities and chicaneries of partisan poli tics. R. M. T. Hunter is a man who would till with honor aud usefulness to tlie coun try, the highest stations under our govern ment. He will certainly give strength to Douglas. Between these two candidates for the choice of the democracy of this State, there will be a brisk and earnest content, not such, however, as to create any serious breach or division. We believe that the democrats are in too great a hurry to get back into power, to divide and quarrel about mere men. It will, therefore, be a vigorous wrestle or sparring match, rather than a regular knockdown affair, between the two candidates. We shall watch closely the progress of the match, aud duly note the results.
