'i knowledge of the f lot m iy serve to hlunt the keenness of tho.MJ denunciations in which iIr. Man uni so freoly indulges towards the "prin riph'ji" of others. That man surely lias i;veil to little purpose who after having ex perienced the utmost lenity himself, is not ready to accord honest and patriotic in tentions to those from whom his own sub sequent vacillations may have separated f i i tn. Agiin it will doubtless be recollected that i"r some time after the election of Judge Man gum to the Senate of the U. S. his opinions, up. o;l a subject which at that day excited general interest throughout the country, were so freely commented upon in newspapers and elsewhere, that at a Convention in Hillsborough in 1532 he r.udo tliis public avowal: 'IIe had been charged by his enemies with being a Nullificr, whether through ignorance or malice, he knew not: but he spurned the charge with indigna tion. Hi opinion had been formed upon the subject, tr more than two years, and had undergone no change whatever. He viewed it as a rank absurdity.' Whether this opinion has been reviewed or not, I will not undertake to affirm. The Hon. gentleman is as skilful in concealing his own views, as he is in assailing those of others. But if any indication is to be drawn from his recent course in the Senate and from his personal and political associations at Washington, the infer ence would seem to b2 authorized, that he had oeaspj to regard the South Carolina doctrine, so redolent of absurdity, as when he exclaimed agiinst it in the memorable Hillsborough Con vention. How far the predictions of the Honorable Se nator may be verified in regard to the future po sition of Kdgecom.be, Mime, which is so impor tant an element in testing the soundness of opin ion," will alone determine. Doubtless in ventu ring the prophecy, the Senator recollected the versdility that has marked his own tortuous oure; and in reference to the state of public opinion in North Carolina, if I could catch the prophetic spirit, J might warn the Hon. gentle man not to mistake the ripples upon the surface of the deep for the movements of its mighty Le viathan. A. informs us that the statement made of the occurrences, and published at New Or leans, (as we expressed our belief when notieed in this paper) is too highly col oured, and in some particulars incorrect. The passengers were not prevented from landing at Nussau, longer than usual, un der similar circumstances, where quaran tine regulations are in force; and were permitted to leave the vessel sooner than was expected, on account of their being in a distressed situation. They were uUj treated politely by the Oflieers of the man of war, who directed some of them to be landed in the barges of that vessel. Tin; letter ot the Lieutenant Governor, of which an extract was given, referred to those who should attempt to force away the slaves, ntul ili.i ....i ...... i., ...... nwi nyny iw JitHMJilS who wished to tnke slaves that were will ing logo with iheir masters as tin evi dence of which, Captain S. carried one a way with him, and a passenger, it is sla ted, took away eight. Captain fc. con tradicts the statement, that there was on ly a jolly boat attached to the brig, when she was wrecked, but informs us that it was a first rate long boat. He states that he was not aware of the whole char acter of the statement when he signed it, being engaged when it was presented to him, by one of the passengers, and not having time to read the whole paper, which was unquestionably written when under excitement. That the conduct ol the oflieers who boarded the vessel was not such as it should have been, there is no doubt; and the detention of the slaves was also a most unwarrantable act, and will, we doubt not be taken proper notice of by our Government...

He therefore wished to know of the Speaker, if it would be in order for him to write out his speech, and pub lish it as delivered on ihe floor. The Speaker, we believe, made no de cision on the point, but as there seemed to be an universal approbation on the part of the House, we hope the Col. will take it as an assent on their part to the intima tion given by him. We hope, therefore, soon io see the speech that teas to have been. Wash. Tel. Shipwreck.
