April 17. 1 Tbe Presidential movements here con tinue to be the engrossing topics, anil ttey absorb all other matters of interest, li is vain to disguise facts, nnd to face, them always is true heroism. An impression prevails be it true I of not. it is yet tbe impression that Mi;. Sen ator Mangutn made the speech in the Sen ato bet has made in consequence of jibe lore of tbe VJce Presidency on ihejSrjott ticket ; and an impression Drevails that a like lure is held out to Mr. Senator JoriesH ot 1 enn., in consequence of which is the division manifested among the Souihern Whigs in Congress. I must not bo cen sured for writing you of the existence of this impression. I did not create it. It is my bbunden duty, as your correspon dent, to write you not only facts, bjitj wide spread, rumors affecting public men); and when these rumors are put by me into print, 1 but confer an obligation in giving them a reason to contradict in public what is everywhere whispering in private. The rumor and the belief among many there fore, is, that at supper; parties and dinner parties a coalition has been formed be tween Mr. Mangum, and Ex Governor Seward on one side, involving others on their respective sides, that with General Scoft as the un writing and unwritten can didate for tbe North, is to be run Mr. Man gum South, or Mr. Jones, with the disiri bution of other offices among their follow ers in North Carolina, and Tennesseefind Kentucky. Hence this astonishing coali lionl j Mr. Mangum was selected, rumor adds, to preside over the Whig Congressional caucus at a private meeting, where Gov. Seward was tbe prominent spirit, and it was there determined that the Whig Com promise Resolution of the first Congres sional caucus should be ruled out of or der. All this mav be most untrue, and 1 endorse not one word of it; but such 'ru mors are as current in the Washington circles as any item of news in circulation. 1 have before me names o! men alleged to nave been present at these private din ner and supper caucuses, but it is not my business to invade social circles, further than as they produce' public measures! -s The Scott speeches agreed upon, in" these caucuses to follow Mr. ! Mangum, from Tennessee and North Carolina, and to back bim up, will soon tell what 1 need not write. -- It is agreed, too, and Mr. MangurnV speech already discloses it that the Whig Compromise Resolution of the erly Con gressional caucus is to be repudiated, tiot only for the coming Congressional caucus, by being ruled out of order, but in the Whig National Convention, repudiated las uncalled for and unnecessary also. Some of the Southern Whigs in this new-move ment insist upon it that the waiving of issue now is but its adjournment to a more fitting body the Whig National Conven tionand such of them as are in earnest (for some of them are) are but dupes, as dupes they should be. The whole Com promise, as a " finality, is to have the go byvthen, in the Convention, and such is the supper and dinner caucus under standing among the high contracting par ties, and the go by it will have and should have in the present position of things. Why ? I think I bear you aslc in astonish ment. Why ? Hear; me, then, and 1 Will tell you why. j We Northern Whigs can never fight for Southern Constitutional rights on Nor thern ground, if Southern men abandon us. The provision in tbe Constitution for the surrender of Fugitive Slaves is to ps a most unpopular, often a most revolting and shocking duty, but it is a duty impos ed upon us by tbe Constitution, and as sacred, solemn a part ol that instrument as any other section in it. If such lead ing men as Mangum; Stanly, Jones iof Tennessee, or any portion of Kentucky ever abandon us when we struggle in tbe North for the unquestioned, unquestiona ble rights of the Southern States, we must tall before the unpopularity ot tbe Fugi tive Slave provision of the Constitution. We cannot stand up for men who re f Use to stand up for themselves. We hai'e bo earthly interest in protecting the odious parts of the Constitution, surrendered by the South itself. We will never be the catchers of negroes that North Carolina men or Kentucky men do not want.? 1 If we can evade that provision of the Oqn stitution by Southern acquiescence, we most assuredly will Slave catching, next to slave trading, is thought by most peo ple to be the meanest of all occupations. Wc Whigs who, in tbe North, have sac rificed ourselves, our popularity, our pow er, to preserve the consecrated instrument a George Washington and a John Adams bequeathed us, are absolved from all obli gations to continue this self-sacrifice when such men as Messrs. Mangum, Stably Jones, and others, acting, for their States, acquit as from tbe contract. And why should we continue this sac rifice f Answer ye; me that, Messrs. Ed itors; You have-gi veri the country fr$m Western New YorklaW arjiti slavVfyj ijan' for President, whose education, every del ing of wbose nature, beyond - all doubt, was; "and lis anti slavery, j buC wboi upon becoming President, arid taking .

Why. however, i: be asked.

If South rr. encourage the re-opening or the l.t open the anti-slavery issues, whs, the re-opening come, nnd if slaver); institution that cannot stand the k law, or religioner popularopinion, it : tumble down.

I see no reasc;; you Northern Whigs, who, as IP hopes, have led on even the.Dem, columns from the errors of the Wi Proviso to the defence of the Const it arid the LaWs, should act as jfuVlorn i any more. When the Southern gt r. -in-chief are deserting you on the V.:', battle, you would be fools to be 1 . forlorn hopes in their behalf. .Then periods in 1 politics, as in war, v.!; surrender is a duty as well as dis cr I counsel no surrender now, ho we vt : , tnbre vigilant action; than ever until settled whether Mr. Mangum leP even divides the South. .
