Th lift issue of tba Standard eontaios an 2d. The philanthropic North will now, rather feelingly than otherwise, appreciate what "cruelly oppressed Cafee" is doing for their own, fanatical, and jaekassieal selves. Their r.nly hope 0 emerging from their present con dition, is the products of well fed, well elad, and bappy and contented Cuffee's labor. They cannot feed themselves and tkeir vchite, and distressed, and starving Cuffces, unless they can proSt by the labor of the mjre cheerful and contented, bat darker complex toned, Cuffees of the South. 3d. The cod d act of New York, with its overshadowing commercialfinfloenee, acquired 1 from the slave labor of the South the fact I that the credit of Slates, no leas than indi viduals bung and hangs suspended upon the action of a single city, and that city at the North, should bring th South to a knowl edge of her power, and the common sense mode of using it, and this bring) us to the consideration of the fourth, and, for the present, last branch of our article. We have never believed in the ac ion of "Southern Commercial Convention," as heretofore con ducted. They have been gas factories, with the material exception of giving us all the stinks withont any of the lights, expected frtm sudh concerns. Now is the time to have a Southern Commercial Convention that can accomplish something, if ''madness rules i not the hour." . A very grave inquiry now is, as to what commission bouse at the North produce can safely be, consigned? what guarantee its owner has, that it will not be snade over to meet the liabilities of the con signee1 With the article of cotton, this is almost important question, and with this Jackson rimpart before it, cannot the South make a peaceable figM with the North! It is a dangerous thing now' for any Southern THE LEISURE HOUR." I We, with much pleasure, .call attention to i Mr. T. B. Kingsbury's propectui of a lite rary paper to be entitled "The Leisure Hour." We know Mr. Kingsbury very well, and it is no exaggerated praise of him when we say that he is a gentleman of fine literary taste and attainments, and wields a practised, ready and chaste pen. It is the- bounden duty of the South to encourage the development of its intellectual do less than its physical re sources, and we run no rUk in saying that if Mr. Kingsbury's 'L;isure Hours" are prop erly encouraged, they will be profitably spent for the public. V TENNESSEE SENATOR. Gov. Andrew Johnson hts been elected to (he United States Senate, vice James C. Jones. We are sincerely glad that Jones has received the just reward of his recreancy. He is now in a retirement whence we hope he will never emerge. Mr. Johnson, to bis credit be it spoken, has risen from a very humble station to his present elevated posi tion. On the other hand, though, Mr. J. must be debited with being a most bitter and unscrupulous partixan. tnicle more thin a column long in reply to a . v. , r :-- .v. a x.

Now, for onr own part, when a gale is blowing we wish any craft in which we are embarked to keep so far from "a lee-shore, as tever "to find" one. "Lee-shores" are any thing but downy beds for vessels, unless they have altered their quality since we last saw one. Xr. Miller for the alleged noerateful treat aca. cf Lim by his own party. We cannot saj Ait the StaaJard's article is either "ingenn sj or ingenious," but are ready to admit tiat it is exceedingly simple, very simple too nmple to lead into error any ote at all epiuat of the relations betwsen Mr. Miller ud oarself. The idea that it would be our L-a cr policy to "stab under the fiffli Kb," or to flourih a dagger" over one of the Bt abl and gallant champions of our own 'nwt is purely ridiculous. The Standard is ecuraatly boasting of the vitality and itreogtb of its own political power, and the i;h and banal of ours, and yet attributes to as a consciousness of strength which justi m us in stabbing or menacing with 'our digger such a man as Henry W. Miller. As toar "speaking fo" Me. Miller," we claim 30 far tier riht to do so than is derived from Lis rec:nt declaration to us that be was as such oppo ed to Democratis principles as err wis, nor ehoald we have thought poliey to ship it directly to Europe. Here, now, is presented a nucleus for a sensible, and practical, Southern Convention, on which a direct commercial intercouse with E a rope may be built up, while we may at the same time show the "orth what they would do without Cuffee and us. We shall return to this subject agiin. THE ISSUE OP WALKER'S POLICY IN KANSAS. TYe have bad news from Kansas. At first, the telegraph reported a victory for the Democracy ; but later, and we fear more authentic intelligence, announces the success of tho Black Republican party, both it the election of delegate to the Leg islature and Representative ia Con ertaw. For our part, we affect no surprise at this mult, with whatever bitternem of spirit we may dplre it. Did ve not foretell that Wal kefs policy could have norther Lue? Did we not warn the people of the .-uth that he was working for the Srirrificeof their interests? And how were we answered by his apoloj-iitsT They told us slavery could never be established in Kana but that the triumph of the National Democracv would brint us some consolation for the loss. L'nder the ad ministration cf Walker, such were their aoleum bPX'lE JfATMKSTiJ BY OU Baxku.

C The. H. Ilardenburgh, Esq., Cashier of the Branch Bank of Cape Fear in the town of Wash ington, committed suicide by shooting himself on the night of Saturday, tho 10th inst. An extra from the office of the Washington Times gives us the following particulars of the melancholy oc currence : ; .About 6 o'clock in the morning, (Sunday, the 11th inst.,) the bells struck an alarm of fire, and as Mr. II. did not make his appearance as usual, on such occasions, one of his daughters attempted to arouse him, but failing, she approached his bedside, found a revolver laying upon his breast, and on placing her hand on his brow, found him sleeping in the arms of death. As the sad news spread over town, our citizens congregated in great numbers in front of the Bank, where he resided, with grief and sorrow depicted upon their countenance. The report of tho pistol wa heard by members of his family, about daylight, but was so inaudible that it attracted no atten tion. ! We saw him as ho lay in death. a terrible picture, the ball entered near the right ear. ranging upwards, and Trom his position ho must j have died without a utmmrlA Hia foafnrns wom ' calm and placid. He was lying upon his bed in a natural position, and as his left hand was burnt with powder, he must have used it in holdinrthe pistol near his temple. Why he chose thus to put an end to his own existence no one can divine. Wc were in his company until about 9 o'clock. the previous evening, and discovered that he was not disposed to be talkative, and seemed to' be in a thoughtful and melancholy mood, .Whether he had premeditated self-destruction, or why he committed the deed was probably known only to himself. Mr. II. was a most estimable gentleman, re spected and admired by all who knew him ; he was affable, kind and agreeablo in his manners. and lived and died without a blot or blemish up on im character.
