Charleston CourciHion.
We refer to our Telegraphic head for the latest
news from Charleston. Our latest dispatch left
Charleston at 2.45 yesterday afternoon. The
Platform was to be reported yesterday evening
and the voting for a candidate it was thought
would commence to-day. Douglas' friends seem
to be sanguine of his nomination, and we doubt
not but their anticipations will be realized. We
shall expect further news to-night, and if the
nomination be made to-day we shall be probably
able to anno.unce it to-morrow.
Independent Papers. After enumerating
the independent papers in the State the Salisbury
Watchman says:
"The Bulletin and Progress are equally de
termined not to be driven into p'arty service.
We have noticed these more particularly than the
others, and therefore speak of them thus. The
others may be quite as decided. They have our
best wishes we applaud them If they will dis
pense equal handed justice ; If they will take the
pains to rind out the truth and tell it, they will
do the Whigs no harm, unless we are very much
in the dark as to what are the objects and desires
of the party. We need independent papers: the
people need just such an institution as these journ
als form, if it be possible for human weakness to
act impartially in regard to ' political parties.
Search honestly, for the truth,, gentlemen, and
proclaim it from the house-tops, and we bid you
God speed. We have had political iymg and
misrepresentation until the people will scarcely
believe truth when they hear it."
The Watchman is right. The Progress is not
to be driven into the service of party. Our mis
sion is a higher one. Whenever we feel it our
duty to raise our voice in behalf of the Union,
and for the rights of the States uuder the Cousti- j
tution, we will do it, not caring whom we please or
whom we offend, but we are not to be driven into
a war of abuse and villihcation of our neighbors
and friends because they differ with us on mut
ters of State and National policy. We know that
we are sincere in our convictions and wc have
no cause to belive that those who differ with us are
insincere, and claiming the right to exercise our
own judgement and express, when we choose,
our own opinions, wo extend the same privilege
to all men. "
Acknowledgement Our thanks are due and
publicly tendered to our old liiend Penuington,
of the '"Progress,"' lor his kind and disinterested
attentions during our short visit to Newborn, last
week. When, or how, can we serve you, fiiend
P. Hough Autcs.
No indebtedness we assure you We are not
concious of having done more, or even as much, i
tor vmt as vou have done time and again for us. I
Acknowledging our many past sins of on.isbion
and commission, we- have determined, in future, j
under all circumstances and on all occasions, to
endeavor do as we would have others to do by
us; and should we hae the moral firmness to
cary out this good resolve we shull only be ac
complishing what is the duty of all men to strive
for.
We hope that our friend W. will visit us often
Weassuie him that if any poor attentions we can
tdiow him will make his stay in Newbern pleas

Daily Kouuil No tes. We have received the
first number of the Daily Rough Notes, issued at
Goldsboro', by Win. Robinson & Son, Editors
and Proprietors. It is the same size of the Pro
gress, is democratic in politics, but will not de
vote itself entirely to party to tho exclusion
of general news. Of Mr. Robinson as a talen
ted and spirited political writer it is useless for
us to speak; his connection with the press here
tofore has made him well and favorably known.
But the people of Goldsboro' and of Wayne are
the parties most to be benefitted by the success
of this enterprise, and they will study their own
interest by giving it that liberal support which
will place it on a permanent basis. We hope and
trust it may succeed, and think it will. The
wants of Goldsboro' require a Daily paper and
there is no more favorable point in the State to
make a good one.
Pious People. The good citizens of Raleigh
must certainly become a very pious people. In
addition to the usual number of fashionable and
unfashionable churches for a small place, they, or
some of their new fnngled religionists, have im
ported tiro female spiritualistic preachers from
Yankeedom who are holding forth in that benigh

PROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS.
lrin Oar Own Rrporler.
Salisbury, N. C, April 23, I860.
Dear Progress: After a pleasant ride of 12
hours. I find myself in this ancient borough, com
fortably lodged at the old, but popular establish
ment known as the Mansion House.
Coming up this morning, when just in sight of
Goldsboro, we were met by a couple of very po
lite good looking young men who had been sent
out by the two very accommodating proprietors
of the two deservedly popular hotels, at that place.
for the purpose of giving us a cordial invitation
to their respective houses, which they did by pre
senting us with a ticket, complimentary of course :
and on arriving at the station we were met by
about a dozen gentlemen, of African descent, who
manifested extreme anxiety to escort ns to the
dinner table. Well, you know how such things
puzzle a man, so I was somewhat perplexed to
know which invitation to accept, but finally I de
termined to go to Baker's inasmuch as his agent
had placed his card in my hand first, and I have
had no cause to regret it yet, though I have no
doubt that Griswold would have given me just as
good a dinner as he did.
At Raleigh we were detained awhile waiting
for the Northern train. When it came it brought
a considerable crowd, among whom there was one
delegate on his way to trie Charleston Convention.
I do not know his name or where he was from,
he was, however, a very good looking man
rather better looking than Democrats usually are ;
but then I guess they always select their best
looking ones to send.from home.
Speaking of good Hotels reminds me of Mis3
Nancy Milliard's supper house at the Company's
Shops. Now it's no use talking, the Newbern
and Goldsboro Hotels are reputed good houses,
and so they are, but not when compared with
Miss Nancy's. Indeed, if she was a few years
younger. I think I would go by her house on my
way to any point whithersoever I might be steer
ing, just to get one ot her good suppers and hear
her ringing voice as she orders the servants to
bring the warm biscuits, eggs, Sec Really, if.
does seem a pity that any lady who can get up
such good eating and who can step so nimbly and
gracefully around her guests while she distributes
to each his portion in due season, should ever
grow old old or decrepid.
While we were taking supper at the Shops a
coffin enclosing the remains of a lady who had
recently died, was placed upon the train to be
brought to this place for interment. Her name
I have forgotten. Her husband died only a mouth
ago.
Having arrived here late to-nighl, I have been
unable to see many people or hear much of the
ffossip of the town. I saw, however, the bills of
the Parker Family on the desk and learned from
Mr. Iiowzee that they are drawing very good
houses except on rainy nights, of which there
have been three very recently, giving the farmers
,l hue season
I noticed several objects of interest on my way
up which I have not time to mention as it is now
12 o'clock. One, however, I wiil call your atten
tion to that is the new Military Academy at
HilVsboro', which, when completed, will not only
be an ornament to the town, but to the State, oc
eupying, as it does, a commanding view from the
village and Railroad, ami yet sufficiently removed
from both to prevent any annoyance from either.
I am glad to hearthat your friends of the Watch
man and Banner are both well and prosperous
They ar'i still pitching into politics with their
usual zeal, though rumor has it that the Banner
man has rather a tough time of it.' Ad valorem,
they say, is rather a dangerous subject for him up
in this mountain country, nasmuch as the good
points of the question are all on one side. I will
not be able to see either of them until I return,
as I go West early in the morning. So, good
night. Noktii Kekliner, Onselow Co.

NEWBERN, N. C, TUESDAY MORNING, MAY
R. J. VTuSkcr add the licnident.
Below we give & letter from each of these gen-
tiernen vthich may b-a of interest to politicians :
R J. WALKER'S EXPLANATION.
Washington City, April so. ISZO.
To the Editors of the Xationul Intelligencer :
Gentlemen Avery inaccurate statement of
my testimony before the Covo-le Investigating
Committee of Congress Las been published in thy
New York papers.
Much and long as we may -have differed on polit
ical question j, I have faith that you wiil be willing
to do me justice by a truthful publication of the
facts of the case
1 send you a correct statement of my evidence
before the committee ; also, a copy of my letter of
a'iih June, 1857, to Mr. Buchanan, and to which
his of July 12th was a reply.
Accoomp.anying this is my statement to the
committee as regards this letter, to produce which
I reserved my right.
I submit the whole to an impartial pubnc with
this comment only: That the correspondence
proves that Mr Buchanan and myself concurred !
in the Spring of J657 in the construction of the ,
Kansas and Nebraska act, that it required the i
submission of the constitution to the vote of the !
people of Kansas. To that construction of that
act. which Mr. Buchanan and myself wre both
sworn to support, adhered; and therefore con
sidered the refusal of the people as a clear viola
tion ot the Kansas and Nebraska act, and there
fore, under its distinct provisions, null and void.
I was sworn to support that law, and so was Mr.
Buchanan. 1 aid support it, and therefore op
posed the withholding of the constitution from the
vote of the people. It is quite clear, as was the
opinion of -Mr. Buchanan and myself, that the
Kansas and Nebraska act required the submission
of the constitution to the vote of the people ; and
any action in Kansas repugnant to that act was
under its provisions, null and void. So I regard
ed such action, and therefore it was my duty to
oppose it.
But there were other reasons. I he programme
finally adopted did not, as pretended, submit even
the slavery question to the vote of the people,
nay. it deliberately, and wutully, and trauduleut-
y withheld that question irom their vote. 1 he
only question submitted Was, "For the constitu
tion with slaverv and "for the constitution
without slavery;" thus excluding by a deliberate
fraud from this vote all, constituting an over
whelming majority, who were opposed to the con
stitution. And tins was the very reason given
to me by Calhoun, the President of the Conven
tion, why this peculiar language was selected.
It was a wretched device ot fraud and vi'lany.
I send you a copy, preserved in the handwriting
of my Secretary, of my letter oi the 2sth June
Jd57, to which Mr Buchanan's was a reply. That
letter, disclosing my inmost thoughts, and never
intended to meet the public eye, will show how
false has been the statement that my action in
Kansas was hostile to the South. It was all in
their favor, to the extent of the just and honest
exercise of my power iu Kansas. I believed, and j
so announced then my anxious desire, to the exe- j
cution or wn cti my lite tins oeen uevotea to pre
serve the equilibrium of the Government. I en
dorsed fully the Died Scott decision and es
j pecially that portion of it (always maintained by
me) that the true period when the people can
iboli.sh .slavery in a Territory is when they per
form the first act of sovereignity iu forming a
State constitution. I maintained this doctrine iu
an elaborate argument published over my signa
ture in June, Ji-.li, from which I have never de
parted I consider myself, gentlemen, as much with
drawn trom polities as if I had ceased to exist, and
now only usU the privilege c-f viiicieatiug myself
and thy tiuth of history.
Yours, frul v,
R. J," WALKER.
The President's Letter. The following is a
copy of Mr. Buchanan's celebrated letter to Rob
ert J. Walker, Esq., when Gov. of Kansas. It was
brought out by the examination of Mr Walker and
Mr. E. B. Schnabel, befoie the Covode Investiga
ting Committee on Wednesday:
Washington, July 12, 1857.
Mr. Dear Sir . I duly received your letter of
the 2dth ultimo, on Friday last, and read it to the
Cabinet then m session. 1 he views which it
contained were not calculated to assure us of
your success, though we did not despond. Hence
you may judge with what satifaction we received
an account of the proceedings of the National
Democric Convention held at Lecompton on the
od inst. The point on which your own success
depends is the submission of the constitution to
the people of Kansas ; and by the people I mean,
and I have no !oubt you mean, the actual bona
Jide residents, who have been long enough in the
Territory to identify themselves with its fate. The
Legislature determined three months as the peri
od ot residence to entitle individuals to vote for
members of the convention, and if the conven
tion should think proper to adopt the same period
to entitle individuals to vote for or against the
constitution, it appears to me this would be reas
onable On the question of submitting the con
stitution to the bona Jide residents of Kansas, I am
willing to stand or fall. It is the principle of the
Kansas Nebrasba bill, the principle of popular
sovereignty, and the principle at the foundation
of all popular government. The more it is dis
cussed the stronger it wiil become. Should the
all
sissippi Conventions will then pass Sway, and be
speeuily forgotten.
In regard to Georgia, our news from that State
ii- becoming belter every day. We have not yet
had time to hear much from Mississippi. Should
you aifwer the resolution of the latter, I should
advise you to make the great principle of the sub
mission of the constitution to the bona Jide resi
dents of Kansas conspicuously prominent. On
this you will be irresistible. With the question
of climate every persoA is acquainted, and the
more you insist upon thisj the more will uur op
ponents urge that we are violating the principle of
non-interference at the found at ioju of the Kansas
and Nebraska bill It is strange that people at a
distance, who have no practical acquaintance with
the condition of Kansas, should undertake to be
w iser than those on the spot. It is beyond all
question the true policy to build up a great Demo
cratic party there to maintain the constitution and
the-laws, composed of pro-slavery and Free State
Democrats, and if the inajori y should bo against
slavery, to obtain such constitutional provisions
as will secure the rights of slaveholders in Mis
souri and other States, and maintain all the laws
guarding the jiist rights of the South.
You are right In your conjecture as to the cause
of Judge Williams' appointment. We supposed
it would be peculiarly acceptable to yourself, and
that he might aid in carrying out your policy.
Col. Gumming has been appointed Governor of
Utah. This will cause his place to be vacant
after the brief period required for settling up his
business, and 1 certainly shall be disposed to fill
it by the appointment of Mr. Steveus.
Gen." Harney has been ordered to command the
expedition to Utah, but we must continue to have
him with you, at least until jou . are . out of the
woods. Kansas is vastly more important, at the
present moment, than Utah. The pressure upon
me continues without intercession I rpray that
Divine Providence in which I. place, my trust,
may graciously preserve my life and my health
until the end of my term.-. But God's, will be
done, in any event.
With every sentiment of esteem, I remain al
ways sincerely yotur friend, BUCHANAN.

Charleston and Savannah Rail Road. The
through connection of the Charleston and Savanah
Rail Road was opened and inaugurated on Satur
day, according to notices. Several friends and
guests of tha Road took an excursion to Graham
ville, in accordance w ith an invitation from the
direction : and there met the first through train
from Savanah, with the President and some of the
Directors, and five hundred passengers, including
Delegates for the Convention.
On the approach of the train, near the Ashley
River, a salute of 21 guns was fired by a detach
ment of the Marion Artillery, Capt J. G. King,
under command of Lieut. J. E. McPherson Wash
ington. At noon a salute of 13 guns was fired by Capt.
Berry, of the U. S. mail steamship Columbia, and
the day was generally honored by signals and flags
from our shipping in port.
This salute of Captain Berry was promptly re
turned from the steamer S. R. Spaulding, at Ac
comodation Wharf (the floating palace and head
quarters of the New England Delegations J by
Gilmore's Brass Band, from Boston, with several
national airs.
This is an excellent band, and our citizens wiil
be pleased to hear their delightful strains on the
Battery, this evening.
In the evening J. S. Ryan, Esq., a staunch,

Messrs. Draue & Singletary, the able and zealous
contractors, were gueots and participants.
Charleston Courier.
I'LL Vote for the other Man. Th follow
i ig story is told of a Revolutionary soldier, vvi o
was tunning for Congress. It appeals that he
was opposed by a much younger man, who had
never " been to the wars," and it was the wont of
"Revolutionary" to tell the people of the hard
ships he end iu ed. Says he: "Fellow citizens, I
have fought and bled for my country I helped
to whip the British and Indians. I have slept on
the field of battle, with no other covering than
the canopv of Heaven I have walked over frozen
ground till every footstep was marked with blood.'
Just about this time, one of the "sovereigns,"
who had become very much affected by this tale
of woe, walks up in front ol the speaker, wiping
the tears from his eyes with the extremity of hb
coat tail, and, interrupting him, says: "Did you
say that you fought the British and the Injines "
" Yes,'.' responded "Revolutionary.'" "Did you
say that you had slept on the ground, without any
kiver, w hile serving your country ?" " Yes. sir, I
did." " Did you say you had followed the ene
mies of the country over frozen ground, till every
step was covered with blood ?" " Yes !" exulting
ly replied the speaker " Well, then," says the
tearful sovereign," as he gave a sigh of painful
emotion, "1 11 be blamed if I don't think you
have dono enough for your country, and I'll vote
for the other man!"
New-York as a Missionary Fikld. It is es
timated by those most familiar with the increase
of population in this city, that the census to be
taken the present year, will show a population
upon New York Island of not iess than 9U0.0UO
a population nearly equal to that of the whole
State of Kentucky. For this vast body of people,
there are only about 275 houses of worship of all
kinds, which will not accomodate, on an average,
more than J.OUO persons each ; but of these, CO be
