Edilork one ef your readers, I must exprm my thanke to you for giving a vrtdt diasemination, in tht proper quarter, to the wise, tem pered and patriotic views of Mr. Buch anan. Your columns could not have been devoted to more interesting and valuable matter, It is to benoped that the tralv magnanimous spirit, wkirh rwrtiilca hit tDcech, and the stte countelt, which it contains, will n.i tw tu.t cither on the teelmes or thaw intclliaence of the South. Mr. Buchsnsn well' observes ''Every thing like psrty politics should be ibsMtlietl from our deliberations en this subject. thotdd derm myitlf rvtliu ol moral trtaton, if, on a qutt tion,' whichmay ondangtr the triilena. cfiht Union, I mild permit m con duet to b influenced by the petty dttirt ef obtaining ' party triumph. It would seem that on to vital a subject and to such a ptlpablt dictate of duty and safety, every one would yieia ready and almost in tti active assent .The alar question should never, for one moment, be brought into the party nolitiei of the dsr. and above all thinrs never be made the pteef of the r. "i . a 'fi.- n: :n rreaiurniiti coiunu im vhwdvim inevitably be the price of such fully and madness. LCt the country be divided on such an issue, and ditun ion mutt be the speedy and certain result. ' The profound silence of the Constitution aa to the word slavery, proclaims more emphaticaiey than tha moat emphatic language, .extreme delicacy of the Subject, and suggests (he duties which attach to it,' obliga tory on every Citizen. -In the teeth of this obvious injunction ef the spirit ef tht Constitution f of Hhest ' admoni -tion of policy we regret' to have divisions and the instrument' of per sonal and party aggrandizement. ' To come ta the pointthe most atudious injustice hss been done to Mr. Clayt suppression and invention have been both resorted ts to poison the citizens againtthim. - It hat even been attemp ted to make him out a poaitive enemy to the South, and that too in contraat with Mr. Van Boren. ' We art not about to commit tht sin wt ' art con demning. ' Whatever' objections we have to Mr. Van Buren, wo shall not quarrel with him as to his present posi tion ea iliis question. Whatever hos tility to the 8outh on this point his history meyfurnish 4etit be forgiven and buried. But but I will make the ataertion and challenge contradiction, that hie past history will not compare with Mr. Clay's in fViendlinrss to the 6outh. No one of his political parti - xana will have the hardihood to deny that h did not go with Rufut King on the Missouri Quetrionr and advocate the restriction wftich excluded $lvave ry from that State ee the, condition of tti admitritm into the Union. Mr. Clay's position and conduct are equal ly, notorious, and were directly.tht opposite. But wt repeat again, sin cerely and f frankly, that we wish not to raie the question of greater or leas friendlineta to the South, as between these gentlemen whatever may have been Mr. Van Burn's history as to tbia matter, wt will not, and have not ought to disparage him We are satisfied with his present position and ia not Mr. Clay as strong, as true to the Consti tu tion," as just to tht South! Let hit own resolutions de fine bis principles, and spesk his sen timental And tme let it be obsetved, mat mete resolution art an in ac cordance veith Mr Buchsnan't sue gestions, both as to principle, snd the lone of tbeir expression. As to slave ry in the States, In the District of Co lumbia and tht Territory of Florida; they art identically what Mr. Buch ana called for. First, as to Slavery in-theStatest-J-'"' ' '!- v ! Resolved, That the institution of domestic slavery,- as now existing ;in man of the states of this Confederacy,' is subject to tht exclusive power- and Control of these Mates respectively in' which it exists, ami that no other ttate, nor the people of any other state,- nor CotigreM,'' possess, or can riehtfully exercise any power or authority what ever tt interfere in any- manner here with. " " ' -- ' 'Rtsolved, That if any citizens tf U.'

As to the District ol iiumou Resolved.

Resolved, That any attempt of Con e-reis to aboliah slaverv in any Ter ritory of the United States in which it exists, would create serious alarm and jutt apprehensioAa'in the States sus taining tnat .nomettice . inatituuon; would be a violation of good fith to wards the inhabitants ofsny tuth ter ritorr who have been permitted to settle with aud hold slsves, because the people ot any such Territory have not asked for the abolition of alavery therein, and because, thr.t when any auch -Territory shall be admitted into the Union as a Slate j the people thereof will be entiled to decide that question exclusively for themselves. The two last resolutions were adopt cd aa a substitute for Mr. Calhoun's 3th. ,.rcolutioii;were supported by every - Sou tnero -vote, - ana received the sanction of S6 to nine of the Sen ators present the entire vote of the Senate being 52 when full And be it remembered that Mr. Clay, in his course, acted in response to the sug gestion of his political opponents at tht North, and received the highest compliments of his political opponents st the South, and the sanction of the entire South; whether friends or fites. Who would believe after thia direct,, complete public committal ia perfect consistency too with bis . whole long carecre that almoat the whole Buren, and Calhoun press of the South have and continue to represent Mr. Clay tk an ally of the abolitionttla asetlicir tool and pander?. Yet the very last official paper, which has rached our city, haa devoted columnt to this work of slander. .With" a sui cidal recklessne! of the vital in terests of the South, the government paper, sustained by its affiliated pres ses throughout the South, seeks to bring the question, of slavery, into 4VU presidential struggle challenges the votes of the South oh tha , express ground that Mr. , Van Buren - is the " Ai o ..'I ilanmnrf, Mr. Clay its its enemy.

But the interests of the South, no lets than. uie vindication oi an illustrious statea man and patriot demanded that calu- umny ahouid be exposed, and the truth made manifesto Let me repeat, in conclusion, mat i seek not to injure Mr. Van Buren or to benefit Mr. Clay, as Presidential aspirants, on the ground of thcir retpettivc relation ship to slavery.
