Navy, and sending him! as a prisoner on parole to the United States.

Un yesterday the President sent a message to Congress i jv. 'iv in wuicu ue states iua. uoramoaore rauiaing naa committed a-grave but Mr Buchankn would, like Burke, pardon something to the spirit of pa triotism." In the Senate, when such friends Tf the Administration as Mason," of Vf rgi can not 1 defend, and Jefferson Davis; Gov. Brown, and others, openly denounce the act of Com. Paulding, it is time that be should be opinions different persons may entertain of General Walker, the principle of international law which our) a i i a ji i-t govei nmeni 'naa -u ways uiaiiiiaiiieu, anu lor uicu we fought England, is that any free man has a free foot to go and corne as he pleases and if he chooses to become a citizen of another country, be ia to be free, to enjoy all-such 'rights and liabilities conse quent upon such choice.

Nica ragua by a strong party of that nation ition. went, there of 'thatcbuntryi he became- naturalized citizen fought in her battles, gained her yiciories. and was chosen her Commanding General, and finally Presi dent. 7 It is true, -emphatically, that the, masses of Nicaragua were always in his was the servile forces of Guatemala and Costa Rica, aided and stimulated by English intrigue and English" gold, that made war on Nicaragua and these djd pot dare to do so until they received "aid and comfort" from the late head of the State Department, Gov.

Marcy. Even all these combined were unavailing, until an officer of the American Navy did an act which no British Naval Commander had dared to attempt to seize the vessel of war on which was Walker ammunition and stores, and thus compelled him to ca pitulate. For this Capt. Davis has never, as we can learn, bees reprimanded or recalled. Hailing from the precincts of i aneuel all the black Republican hatred for the South and Southern men.

His excuse that it was an act "of humanity to save Walker, is directly Contradicted by Walker own declaration, and the opinion of General Henningsen. But more conclusive authority, if any can be more so, is found in the message of Generaal Mora, Pres ident ot Uosta Rica, to the Congress at San Jose, in 8peakiBg of this war, that her troops were ready to retire, and could, not: have remained in Nicaragua another week but for the timely aid of Capt. Davis, of the U. S. ship of war St Mary's.

We have fall en upon strange times, when our Navy officers assume the nrovince of legislators, inde-es. iurora and -o 7 i a i executioners. It was not so in the earlier days Of our Republic, xou recollect the case of Uom. Por ter, an officer -whose brilliant and gallant career in the war of 1812, in the our nag with a blaze of glory, and Captured more prizes from Eng land than any other Commander of our Navy this gallant man. in pursuing a band of robbers and pi rates in the West Indies, landed on a Spanish Island and spiked their cannon.

For this he was punished, driven from the service that he had honored, and died broken-hearted in a foreign land. Yet Com. Paulding can arrest, without crime, an innocent man on foreign' sou, send him, like another Columbus, Upon what meat does this our Caesar feed, anat ne natn grown so great? If his object was to "crush out Walker, he has created a strong feeling of sympathy with thousands I for hitu. He indulges in the mild epithets of pirate and outlaw," and yet be is the guest of the Commo dore. and partaker of bis hospitalities.

The letter of Paulding is disreputable to the head of any officer or heart of a gentleman. He denounces Walker for acts done, as he alledges up the River, of which he had no advices, and which are pot true. To invade with arms and force a foreign soil, is itself an act of war and yet it is to be seen if Paulding is recalled. But recalled of remain, he fiPrebuked "on committing a grave which, jn political questions in the opinion of Talleyrand, was worse than crime. In the mean time Gen.

Walker, who is in the City, and trusts to the troth of his course for final vindication has-1 addressed a letter to the President on the subject, which finds sympathy with all, and reminds" one forcibly of Emmet's defence before Lord Nor-bury, for its deep feeling and indomitable 'and unconquerable energy.i"7J I' Happily "the wars and rumors of wars" in Kansas are all in 7 In the deep bosom of the ocean buried."

We have a few facts relating to the several constitutions of the State of Kentucky which are of interest in connexion with the organization of a State eovernment in Kansas under the Lecompton constitution.

The second or amended framed in l799Temamed unaltered until; 1850.1 Neithefof these constitutions were ever submitted to a vote of the people.

Reid. Every NothlCarolinian should feel interested in the career of herj public men," for their acts constitute the chapters in. our national history, by which we are, to be by coming generations.

I presume a feeling of ii btate-prtae tj. iiii.sn aione, not to name otuer coiiaiueraiuiis iu eur ficient to claim for this article' the attention of your numerous readers. Ii Gov Reid first appeared in public life in 1885, under the old constitution, as State Senator from his native county of Rockingham. AfterJ the adoption of the new constitution, he was re-elected the succeeding year, to the same position. Jrj 1838 and 1840, he was returned to the same body1.

The continued support of his), constituents, conclusively at-! tested the confidence they repqsed jn hitn'. His services in the senatorial branch the legislature, were important to those whom he represented, and of such a liberal and just character, as to embrace a cautious watchfulness over the interests Of the whole State. As a devoted son of the Old Nortb State, he knew that she had claims upon him as one of her legislators, which no narrow geographical lines ought to circumscribe, and hence he labored diligently for ner goou, uer iionor anu uer prosperity, In 1848, Gov. Reid was elected to the House of Representatives of the United States. next Congressional campaign opened in 1845 and Gov.

Reid triumphed 'again. Then he was jstirrounded by Messrs. Biggs and Dobbin, as his prominent col- leauges in maintaining the wisdom and sond policy of Mr. Polk's administration. The period was one of unusual excitement and exasperated' party The administration had open and avowed, ene mies, who were ever ready to throw obstacles and difiBculties in the way of a speedy, and satisfactory settlement of all great questions.

Gov1 Reid was equal to his duty, and was found laboringfissiduous-ly in behalf of Mr. Polk, and the conservative party of which he as President' was jthe recogt'tised head ard representative. The country was imperilled by dangers that required able counsels to pott out the way by which they might be escaped, ivylhout impairing or compromising our national hoftjpr. Gov. Reid manfully sustained the Administratiothrough-out his second term guarded the his District with inflexible fidelity, and so wteety shaped bis conduct as to acquire a large degree influence in the House.

His record afford? the surest indc of his devotion to those orthodox principles which have so signally advanced the material greatness of the Republic. The Gubernatorial Conventions of the lemocratic and whig parties, met in 1848, to select tbjjr respective standard-bearers. The Whigs had; for many years defied the most determined efforts of (lieir opponents for the redemption of the State. Unii jterrupted successes had followed the struggles of sijh leaders as Badger and Mangum, Graham and forehead, Shepard and Miller, Rayner and Stanly, si 7long that hope seemed to hold out no promise of democratic ascendency. With an unbroken chain ojpvictories, extending many years back in favor of big men and measures, Gov.

Reid commenced th unequal contest, with a hearty purpose of conquotring heretofore invincible legions. Gov. Manly stead of sustaining the iytiaA nf his rirwlePtgnrgv ty aiim mg a majority of thousands, only obtained his election by the paltry majority of a'few huftdred. To pardon a slight degression, the fact has been incon testable demonstrated, that Gov. Reid is! stronger than bis party for immediately after his defeat in 1848, by seven hundred.

votes, Gen. Taylor carried the State by over eight thousand majority, and in 1852, Gov. Reid was elected by five thousand majori-tyj while Gen. Pierce fell short of. a thousand.

vBut to return to the point. Seeing; that Reid was' an available man, and one eminently fitted for the office of'OOvernor, the Democratic par tyi again in 1850, placed him before the people for their suffrages. He vanquished the adversary The victory was brilliant and complete, and the star of jwhiggery went down below the political horizon, leaving no soli-solitary ray to mark its once proud place in Lhe empy-ream. In 1852 he was re-elected Governor, by a largely increased majority. It was durirtglthese arduous campaigns, that Gov.

Reid so earnestly espoused the great doctrine of equal suffrage a doctrine of which he was the author. Since 835, that monstrous feature of political inequality nained in our constitution, which excluded those noiWning a freehold of fifty acres of land from voting fgUSenator. His efforts in having this wrong expongefrom the organic law, have endeared him to those rights have now been so fully obtained. Gov.lReid's administration of the State government for raro terms, gave the utmost satisfaction to his party, ijfnd to the unprejudiced people of our beloved old Commonwealth. 1'" During the session Of the Legistature iri; 1854, Gov.

Reid was elected a United States Senator; for four years. This was an honor well and justly due to him from the -Democratic party. Since- his appearance in the Senate be has attentively watched the interests of his State and so modestlyworn his honors, as to command the respect of a political influence in that august assembly. Unaccustomed to the practice of indulging in th idle and. unprofitable discussion of every minor subject that comes before the Senate yet, whenever the rights of his section or the interests of his constituents are -at stake, he never fails to raise.) his voicein their defence.

His clear-understanding and practical manner of speaking, make him i public agnt of ad-' mitted usefulness. Truthfully jean it be yaid, that he possesses the substantial elements of fghtened Tf My, humble sketch of Reid, is nowyfinishodf To every North Carolinian, from the. tains of Cherokee to the sea-board of Currituck, hQ services and his name are favorably5 khqwn.

starless-lnight of 4 disaster hung pminously'around 'our band, he come to the rescue, and with a vallor a indom itable like that which armed the iron arm of Coeur de Lion to conquer, his enemies, Gov. Reid succeeded in victory fromlthe jaws: of defeat.
