' There are thorn at tha South who affect to be ll (we hare bo idea that any intelligent or ho DMt mam oxtUrtaias any such opinion,) that Mr. Fillmore would not b a safe depository for tha maintenance) of tha right of tha Sooth. To all such vi commend tha following Extract from "hla annual message to Congress La Dacamber, 1141: - Mll waa hard! to hare been expected that the ttut of measures passed at jomx last session, wrtk tha via of healing tha sectional difference which has sprung from tha slavery and territo rial qnosrinna. ehoold at ooca hare realised their beoificcat parpoe. AH mutual concession in tha aatara of a compromise, muU necessarily be unwelcome to men of extreme opinions. And though without each, eooceattooa oor Constitu tion cosxkl not hare beeo kerned, and caocot be perauanently sustained, yet wa hare seen tht m oada tha subject of bitter cmtneersy in both cciSjo of the Republic, It required many mouth of diaruauon and deliberation to secure the concu7Toe of a niajjrtey of Oongresa in their favor. -It would be it range if they had Ween received , with immediate approbation by people aod State, prejudiced aad heated by the exciting controversies wf their repreemUUre. I believe those measures to hare been required by the circumstances and eonditioo of tha country. I believe tLey were necessary to allay asperities and aaioKMtiea thai were rapidly alienating ooa section of tha country from another, aad destroy iog thoea fraternal aendmenta which are the strongest supports of tha Constitution. They were adopted in tha spirit of conciliation, and for tha purpose of conciliation. I belie re that a great majority of our fellow-citizens sympathize in'thst spirit, and that purpose, and in tha main approve, and are prepared, in all respects, to sus tain these enactments. I cannot doubt that the .American people, bound together by kindred blood and cemmon traditions, still cherish a pa. Tamount regard for the Union of their fathers ; -aod that they are ready to rebuke any attempt to violate it integrity, to diaturb tha com promises fu wbkh it is baaed, or to resist tha laws which .Lave been enacted under it authority. -" Thi series of measures to which I have al 1 nded are regarded by ma as a tenement in prmripl mf substance m Jinat settlement of the danger w suMf txeilimg mJbjteti vkiek tkry embrace. Must of tbeee subjects, indeed are beyond your reach, a the legislation which disposed of 'them was in it character, final and irrevocable. It may be presumed from the opposition bich they all encountered, that none of those measures were free from imperfectiona, bat in their mutual dependence and connection, they fomed a yt of compromiee, tha most conciliatory and best :for tha entire country, that could be obtainal from conflictisg sectional interest and opin ion. "Fur this reason, I recommend your adherence na tha adjustment established by those measures, until tuns and experience shall demonstrate the vex jity s farther legislation to guard against avaaion or abuse. " that sjaatMot we have been rescued from tha wide aod hacavflasa agitation that surround ed ns, and hare a Aim, distinct, and legal ground to rest upon. And tha- occasion, I trust, will juktify ma- in Aborting nay oux)trynien to rally upon and maintain thai ground as the best if ot tha only means, of restoring peace and qoiet to tha country, and main tailing in v.oiate tha integrity f the Union." This la plain and straight-ferward, and every wall m formed . aad candid man in America be 1 IaMres ha weuld sustain these principles In his ad i nusistration.' But there are those at tha South, aa remarked, who affect to regard Mr. Fnx noax sweound on tha alevery question, f there be a Demos rat who affeata so to believe, we in vite hie aliention to the following extract from vtbe Damocratle Platform of 1853. It waa pro : noonoad by tha democracy of that day all that ; tha South desired or had any right to demand. ; Raad tha extract and decide, how much sounder vthe demoreatie platform is than Mr. Fillmore. .ilereia tha extract tbx DaaocaaTic r la Trot m or 1152. aMThai Cougraaa has no power under the Con-ihirr'-T to interfere with, or control the domes tic iastitatiooj f the several State, and that such htatea are the sola and proper judges af every thing appertaining to their own affairs, not pro hibited by the Constitution ; that all effort made to induce Congress to interfere with questions of alarsry, or to take incipient steps in relation thereto, are calculated to lead to the moat alarm icg snd -daagtruua consequences; and that all such efforts have an inevitable tendency to di xniniah the happiness of the people and endan ger the stability and permanency of the Union, and o-ght not to be countenanced by any friend .of our political institutions. That tha foregoing proposition covr and wes intended to embrace tha whole subject ol tthe slavery agitation in Congress ; and, therefore, ft Democratic party of the Union, standing upon d Xational PUUorm, what platform ?J will abide by aod adhere to the faithful execu tion of the acta krworn a the compromise mea sures settled by the last Congress, the act for the reclaiming of fugitives, (torn service, included; which act, being designed to carry cot an expreta provision of the Constitution, eanuc, srith fiileli ty thereto, be repealed or so chaoged as to'daar troy or impair its efficiency. t RucletJ, That we will raaiat all al tempt at renewing, in Congress or out of it, the slavery aiutioa under whatever shape and ecLr the at tempt may be made." f Mr. Flllmre was the almost universal choice of the Southern Whigs for President, In 1852. fotibi some of them.' under the ' influence of new lights, 'may pretend . to want confidence iu him now.- .'If ao, wa bag their attention to tha ffUowiog extract fronv the ' Whig Platform of 1852, and ask which ia the more sound Mr. Fillmore's or the Whig Platform ? with which they were then not only perfectly satisfied, but delighted. Here is the extract Tax wmo ri-ATroa or 1852. That the series of meaanres comiuonly known aa the Compromi&e, iucluding the fugitive slave laV, are acquiesceii in by the Whig party of the United State, m a settlement in principle ami Kubktance -a tiual settlement of the dangerous and exciting questioua which they embrace ; and k fars the fugitive tlave law is concerned, we will maintain the same, aud insu4 on its strict enforcement, until time and experience shall de monstrate the necessity of further legislation to guard against evasion or alUie, not impairing its present efficiency ; and we deprecate all fjirther agitation of slavery questions as dangerous to our peace, and will discountenance all efforts at the renewal or continuance of 'such agitation, in Congress or out of it, whatever, wherever, or however the attempt may be made ; and we will maintain this system an essential to the national ity of the Whig party, and the integrity of the Union. . . There you have the three platforms, read them carefully and scan them closely, and determine whether either is better than Mr. Fillmore's. So far from it, every candid man will be forced, to admit, that both the Democratic and Whig par- tie of 1852, only followed in the track marked out by Mr. Fillmore's Message,- in 1851, more than six months before either Conventions as sembled. And they assured the South that they could not desire or demand more for the pro tec tion of Southern rights and institutions thsn their platforms claimed. - - The Xashville Banner publishes the foregoing extracts, and aavs what no roan who values his reputation for truth, will pretend to controvert ; "Now, if will not be pretended that Mr. Fill more has departed one iota from the positions occupied by him in 1850, and re-afiirmod in his annual message of 1851." The Banner continues : "As the opinions, then, of the candidates for the Presidency on the sub ject of alsvery and slavery agitation are -to be considered the test of merit ; aa the Democrats and a fow Old Line Whigs still profess adher ence to their respective platforms of 1852 ; and a those pUtforms, or the portions of them which relate to the subject of slavery, aro Fillmvrt all ocer, what better can the Democrats and those Uld line Whigs do than support Mr. Fillmore what safer and truer man can they hope to find than heT UNITED STATES FINANCES. It is said, that the Federal expenses will reach 75 millions this year aud the probability is that the revenue will not be sufficient' to meet the obligations and. in that event, a loan will have to be resorted to. The Democrat' c party have a way of spending money ! ' tj&With the great, broad, indisputable fact staring them in the face aud ringing in their ears, that Mr. Fillmore in, and has been for years, the objecf of fiercest Abolition hate, misrepresenta tion and slander, is it not a matter fr wonder, that he should be availed in the slaveholding States? Our common enemies arc to be found in the racks of the'-Abolitionist. They abuse, malign and persecute us, without stint, on every icca&ion, and we, of the South, owe them no love. V there is not a prominent slaveholder in the South they not treaX tanderly when compared to their treatment of Mr. Fillmore. They ue rerabuaed John C Calhoun as they abuse Mr. yllmore. Thsy rerer vilified John A. Quitman, Jefferson Daw, Toombs, fetepfcens, ana other noted extreme Southern Rights pen, as they vilify Mr. Fillmore J These ara incoo trover tibte truths ; aod nnder the ordinary circumstances which control human action, would lead the en tire slave holding community to the support of the man against whom the deadliest batteries of the common foe are directed. For our part, had not Mr. Fillmore a glorioua past to refer to, the fact that he ia hated by all the Abolitionists and enemies of the South, would be a recommanda tion to entire him - to our cordial and earnest - a support, PkXSWXKT Pubcs avp Mr o Dojjklsos. We publish the following leUer from Ciperal Pierce to Major Donelson, written in 1851, to show what opinion the President then expressed of the American candidate for the Vice Presi dency : Comcobo, May 30, 1851. MrDxaaSia: I rejoice that the leading or gan of our party is now under your control, and regard the change aa most auspicious at this juncture. There is a great baHia before us a battle for the Union a battle for the ascendan cy of the principles, tha maintenance of which so nobly . signalized the administration of General Jackson. The tone, vigor qnd ttaUaman-likt grasp which you Lave brought to the columns of the Union are not merely important they absolutely indispensable in this crisis.

Tendlcton, on the evening of the came day; but the -severity of the shock snd the lost of blood, was too great, and the suf ferer died on Saturday night. There are conflicting tpott as to how this accident happened: The deceased, we karn, blamed the engineer; but it ia alleged, on the otber hand, that deceased gave the usual notice, and that the engineer did pot move the train until he received such notice. . Tha cute, if it ha pot, will, doubtless, be duly investigated. This much i due to public jtutice.

MARRIAGE OF THE PRINCESS ROYAL OF V I ENGLAND. We are authentically advised that the Princess Royal of England and heir apparent to the throne, now in the ICth year of her age, is be throthed to Prince Frederick of Prussia, a young gentleman some 9 years her senior ; and that they will be married probably in the course of the current year.. It is only a few months since, the intended bridegrtiom visited England, wlrtere, it would seem, that he wooed and found favor in the eyes of the Princess Royal, and, what was more to the purpose, perhaps, in the eyes of her royal parents. The papers of the day, reported how its was conducted to the Palace by prince Albert ; h"w he was received in the most gracious manner by the Queen, and how he was treated there for some days as a most favored guest. A general impression was created at the time., that the visit was not an ordinary one of ceremony. And the idea soon got hold of the public mind, that the Prince came as a suitor to the Princess Royal, or rather as a visitor to his bethrothad wife. An out cry was raised against the projected alliance; the Queen was lectured about the mode of marrying her daughter, and the matter ended at that time by the departure of the Prince from Belmoral. It is now apparet that the royal families of Eng land and Prussian merely deferred the execution of their project until more pacific view s became ascendant ; and the rinpwal of this subject at the present moment affords decided proof that, in the opinion of both families, the accomplishment of peace is certain, and the contemplated alli ance may have exerted no inconsiderable influ ence in securing the consent of England to the admission of representatives from the Court of Prussia to the Paris Conferences. Prince Frederick William Nicholas Charles, of Prussia, was I u pn the 1st of October, '1831, and is consequently in his g&Lh fear. He holds the commissions of Major, a la suits, of tha first regiment of Foot Guards, and Chief and Colonel Proprictaire of the other regiments in the Prus sian service. He is the eldest son and heir of Frederick Wjlliam, Prince of Prussia,;brother of the king and .beir to tha Lbrope, Consequently, if the projected marriage Khali take place, it may be anticipated that the time is not far distant when the throne of Prussia will be occupied by a Princes of England. - The young lady wfrP00 hand is about to be made the pledge of renewed amity whh Prussia, .' Her Royal Highness Victoria Adelaide Maria Louisa, Princes Royal of England," was born at Buckingham Palace, on the 21&t of November, 1840, and was baptized on the loth of Feb. fol lowing. A Mabbtiso Mas. A few days ago Judge Pcrrink of this city, married a man for the fifth time. A singular feature in the case is that the fifth wife was also the third wife. The third marriage not proving a happy one, the parties separated and were divorced. . The man married again, and when death claimed his fourth wife, the disconsolate widower returned to number 3, and woed and won her. Judge Perrin Jhii.ks he has tied them up effectually this time. The lucky man had thi impudence to claim the re duction of the marriage fee in consequence of the large business he was doing in that line. We think he ought to have been charged double price. -rCovijigUm TTl ' ' .The other day a gentleman gave a couple of cents to a woman who asked charity of him. "Two cents 1" she exclaimed, " take them them hack, sir; I asked for charity ; I can't do anything with two cents."
