Bah I half the public opinion of the civitixedl world is little more than hypocrisy, mixed greeof delusion. The with a certain de Iihuriel spear of truth, boldly applJn, will expose Mnd ren der it harmless. The mock philanthropy of the world cannot racist the philosophy of the South, if the Iaijier is true to herself and true to truth. If she has faith iu her cause, she must conquer, no matter what ism and what adversaries ure - arrayed ag-ttimH her. 1 " We believe her philosophy is gaining ad herents even in the North, in spite of. the ravine of the Tribune and the sneers of the Herald. What ia i to the solid men of Boston or the bulla street, if the King of tnd bears of Wall ahomey furpishes a contingent occasionally, to aid in the cut tivation of Southern cotton and sugar, or to assist the agricultural regeneration of Central America Not a sou. Does it furnish them a larger bks;s for speculation, and thereby put more money in their pock ets t Unquestionably ij does. Have they any philanthropy outside of their pockets? Most emphatically not.- But granting they have rt particle of philanthropy outside of those sacred repositories, is it not belter that His sable Majesty -of Dahomey should drive a profitable trade jwith South Caroli na, Louisiana, Nicaragua or Cuba, "in the article of niggers," than be periodically forced to the alternative of eating a thous and or so of his countrVmen'or sacrificing them to Fetich? Ob course it is; and therefore both interest kni humanity plead in behalf of a direct trade with the King dom of Dahomsy. Let the solid men and the philanthropists putjthese things in their pipes and smoke at leisure." DEATH OF A NOTED POLITICIAN. ' The letter of our New York correspond ent announces the death of Samuel Swart wont, formerly collector of that port. The New York Express, id announcing his de i,irj at cease, says : Mr Swartwout, in come of his western and southwestern expeditions, became very intimate with Gen. Jackson and between the two, up to the time of defalcation the liveliest friendship existed. Gen. Jackson would never hear, in f patience, anything aid against Mr. Swahrtwout, even whrn warned as to the danger of trusting so im portant a post as the oIlectorship of New York to a man of such a speculating mind and genius. I - -- After. the first defeat of Gen. Jackson, in 1824, Mr. Swartwout was the first in the Northern States to re start him, then much in defiance of utmost Jail Northern opinion for, in 1823", even Gen. Jackson got but one New England electoral vote that of the Cumberland, Portland District, Maine Mr. S. went into Tanfmany Hall, and bold ly re-nominated Geii. Jackson, and the Empire State soon began to follow in the wake of that -opinion. General Jackson hence, when President, immediately gave Mr Swartwout bis entire Confidence, and bestowed upon hioi jhe important and lu crative post of the New York Collector ship. Pending this, Jjeri. Jackson began . his war upon- the jJmted States Bank, which brought ?money" into politics, and ended in. the inflation of the State Bank, and a general credit bubble Into 'these Rubbles Mr. Swartwout went, not only with all the money of his own he could raise, but with the immense sums in the Federal treasury.. He speculated in almost every thing, and with everybody.,- The collect or's office became the bigest bubble office in the land. Texas was then in a fight with Mexico, and Mr. Swartwout lent his credit with the greatest freedom to buy up guns, powder, ehipesteamers, &c, and to pay men. Texas meetings were held there. Mr. S. was active iiji them all. A great festival was got up at. the then American Hotel, where Swartwout presided, and spoke forcibly. Texas granted him lands fre.ely in return, and a county in Texas was named after him, but we doubt whether he ever rescued anything from bis Texas in vestments. In the Harlem railroad, espe cially the Yorkvilleltunnel, he took a liver ly interest, and was.!a large stockholder. He also went into the coal lands specula tioo, especially in Maryland nay, into al most everything' that came temptingly along and hence, as was inevitable, from the use of the government money, be be . came . a defaulter, knd hopelessly bank- rupt. , . . : : After this defalcation and bankruptcy Mr. Swartwout fled Jto Europe to avoid ar rest here ia New York; but he soon retur ned Upon ascertaining that, notwithstand ing his great fault, here were no Tiodic tive or unkind feelings towards him. His popularity of manner, hie genial habits his' warm and generous heart, if with an in judicious head, had.ever won for him troops of friends, who were disposed, as much as possible, to rescue pira from, the punish ments of the law. He then lived here in comparative retirement s for ten or : twelve years, taking little or no interest in public affairs, and - avoiding all public -display whatever. .. 1 I The Herald relates th ' following, inci dent ; - - - : ; . , " .' , ? 'At -the olicitation'f,a certain promin ent democratic polincian, Mr. Swartwout was requested to call on General Jack so It when he was on a. visit to New York, and intercede with him andfsuade him not toieBiove the goveromeBlrdeposits from tjie United States Bank Jlj Swartwout sra edMhat he found theoli"Gneral walking, the parlor of Ins hetet He coawnetteed walking the floor witn4rim, when he broa ChedP the subject it$"tint. The General heard-firm wiib silent attention and afrer Swartwout bad exhausted all jthe argu ments he could adduce Hsaul6' ln meas ure, the General came a halt,an3 rais ed himself to an 'ejrec'stsitionr and sternly exclauned: - -"By theiitirnal God, sir, my mind -is made ujjUk1 declare to you that the order shaUb givn befor I return "to .Washington to'ha.VfiJ.hejdepoaits removed .1 Ai3 eueh- was th"erJr.w-" RDM ANTIC STORY. : A Paris corrsiondnt tells. a romantic story of a charming youns cant ai rice wno was on the eve df marrying a worthless ud venturer. Sbe had been warned against him, but in vain, and the day for the wed ding being fixed, the singer was invited to meet a large party at the ho se of a prince ly compeer, there to take her farewell of the name she had rendered celebrated, ind play in an opera composed by hr host. Amongst the guests invited, whs an elder ly Duchess of more than doubiful reputa tion, who was herself in love with the in tended bridegroom Determined to pre vent the marriage, she contrived to substi tn:e one of his love letters to her (written' only the day before, and speaking most lightly of his future wife) for a letter to be read by the heroine of the play. The sin ger opened it, and stood rivited to the spot, pale as death and breathless with emoiion The play was brought to an abrupt termi nation, so were, of course, all thoughts of marriage. The lady has left Paris for Iiu- TRUE GENEROSITY A gentlein.m who died in this county, says the Lexington (Va JGazette, a few "months ago, devised bis entire property, estimated at 916,000, to one of his sisters. After his death that sister destroyed his will, and divided his property equally be-1 tween a brother and sister and herself. THE EFFECT OF TIME. A coxcomb, talkinir of the transmigra tion of souls, said : "In the time of Moses I have no doubt I wns the golden calf" "Very likely," replied a lady ; "time has robbed you of nothing but the gilding " " SOUTHERN COMMERTial'cONVENTION. The city of Lynchburg has appointed forty six delegates to the Commercial Con vention to be held at Savannah on the 8ih of December. . The following resolution was adoptsd : Resolved, That we regard a -system ef direct trade with Europe as essential to the independence and prosperity of the Southern Stales, and that, in the judgment of this meeting, the harbor of Norfolk pos sesses advantages unequalled by any oth er Southern port as the point to and from which that trade should be directed. HORRIBLE BLASPHEMY. In the New York Independent for last week, we find an original Fremont, and Kansas hymn, of which the following is a verse : "The Lrd of AH htoA nm, ' Whatever good we do To tba p ioret and the meanest one, lis knows and feels it too, Think that his eye is o'er you ; Let not your faith grow dim; For Ike vote you cast for frrvumt Is a tots cT roa Him!"

Til EC existing condition of political parties, snd of partisan strife, naturally suggests the estab lishing of sueh a Journal as the "southern Senti nel" propose. to become. The present, indeed, is a crisis In our political history, never witnessed be fore.
