JOHN J. OHITTENUEN,

Of Keitockf.

Conservative Men.

It is truly gratifying to know that, in these timee of party excitement tod party prejudice, when the best feeling* of the

id mm

of those who take an active part in the political twoe* of the day, hare been perverted from the broad channel of conservatism and nationality, and led off into the dangerous current* of sectional agitation, there are still some conservative, national and IJnion-loving men, who are high in pnblic position and public respect, who have not feared to take a bold stand in favor "of right and ofjnstioe, and denonncein terms unmeasured and emphatic that sectional spirit that wonhl force upon the people of a Territory a constitution that had not been fairly submitted to them, whether Topeka or Lecompton. It is a matter of special gratification to the American party to know that the ablest and best men who have aided in the opposition to the Lecompton Constitution, and through whose instrumentality more has been done to defeat the Kansas bill than has been effected from any other source, are Southern members of that party, who have laid aside all sectional feelings and local interests, to secure and preserve that great political right of the people of a Territory, when forming a State Constitution for admission into the Union, to decide the question of slavery for themselves. Foremost among these men, were John J. Crittenden of Kentucky, and John Bell of Tennessee. These were two of the noblest champions of popular sovereignty, in the United States Senate, during the discussions that arose upon the Kansas bill, and both have mvle speeches that have not been equalled since the days of Webster and of Clay.

We havo already published the speech of Mr. Crittenden, and would gladly publish that of Senator Bell, but for its extreme length as it is, wo subjoin the following article in relation to it, from the Louisville Journal:

The speech of Senator Bell of Tennessee, in the United States Senate, upon the bill for the admission of Kansas into the Union, is an able an»l eloquent and dignified review of the whole Kansas question. We reffrot thst its great length precludes its ptiblicetvon in our columns. It occupies twelve columns of the Nashville Re* publican Banner. It is entirely worthy of the great talents, the high-souled patriot-, ism, and the sagacious statesmanship of its distinguished author. It presents in one extended view all the principal points of the controversv between the Democracy and the anti-keoompton party. Mr. Bell has grouped together in a forcible and masterly style the material facts bearing upon tbe question, and upon them he has erected a noble superstructure by sound logic and incontrovertible argument. He has unmercifully bared to the public gaze the hideous depravity of the Lecompton ltomocraey. He has nobly vindicated the heroic action of that little band of Americans in Congress who stood with him firmly resistiug the outrage upon popularsovereiguty attempted by the administration, and who, in the hour of our country's greatest dangor, stepped bravely in between the sectional factions whose mad contests were shaking the very foundations of the republio, and became the pacificator*, the preservers of the Union.

The coarse of John Bell of Tennessee, during the many years of his long and useful public life, has challenged the admiration and won the respect of the whole people, lie has proved a statesman of more than ordinary ability. He has always been found battling against public wrong and in favor of conservative principle* and popular right. But^ no action of his long and brilliant political career has shod more imperishable lustre upon his name than his opposition to the iniquitous Lecompton scheme of the Buchanan administration. It is the crown of glory to his long public Hft. It is in act of herote patriotism for which posterity will bless his memory. It is one of tbe greatest of all his great public services.

Mr. Bell can well afford to despise the

Sisparage

uny efforts of his political opponents to his worth as a representative of his State in the United States Senate and to dim tie lustre of his reputation by impugning the loyalty of his devotion to the true interests of the South. There l» not within the whole confine# of the Southern States a more chivalric champion of their rights or a more watchful guardian of their interests. Tbe calumnies and detractions of his maligners fall harmless at his feet or recoil from the ample buckler of his untarnished reputation to wound and rankle in the hearts of their despicable author*.

In taking his position with Crittenden, of Kentneky, in opposition to the oatrageoua efforts of the President and his sapporters to crush out popular sovereignty J^d to force from the representatives of

the people an endorsement of new and dangerous radical red-republican dogmas, Mr. Bell has manifested an ability to Bee and know toe right, and a fearless determination to do justiee and to protect the Union and the States from every danger, that will greatly enhance the high admiration in which he is held by the masses of the people in all sections of the conntry. His speech on tbe Kansas question will go forth to the nation with that of Crittenden, and they will be treasured as text-books of political trtitli.

The American Party in St. Louie. On tbe 20th ult., the Americans of 81. Louis, held a meeting at their Hall, No. 46 Chestnut Street, where the following resolutions were adopted by acclamation:

Resolved hf the Members of the American party in Matt Meeting assembled, That the American party cannot support traitors and renegades who, in the hour of need, abandoned the American canse, no matter in what disguise they may be presented.

Resolved, Thst the principles of the A merican party preclnde, the support ol the nominee of any tectorial party.

Resolved, That the American party will not present a ticket at the coming municipal election.

Resolved, That we heartily approve the sentiments of the Hon. John J. Critenden as enunciated in the United States Senate, calculated as they are to arrouse that patriotism and love of tbe Union which should animato every American heart.

Resolved, That we appreciate and admire the proud position of Mr. Critenden while we endorse and approve, as embodying fundamental principles of the American party, his noble and manly defence of the rights of the peopl and fervid appeals in behalf of tbe Union, we find language inadequate to express the contempt we feel towards the Senator from Missouri, who, scarcely warm in his seat, could sneeringly speak of the eloquent remarks of the father of the Senate as "psalm singing in praise of the Union."

Resolved, That the American party ever has been, and ever will be, opposed to nullification in whatever form it may assume and that the removal of Judge Loring by Gov. Banks of Massachusetts, is a high handed, practical nullification of the laws, which should be denounced and condemned by" every citizen who hopes for the perpetuity of our Government."'

Every true American citizen, not boond in fetters by the demagogueism by which we are on every hand beset, must endorse the sentiments embodied in the above, by our friends and fellow-citizens of St. Louis. The American, hew, there, and elsewhere throughout the nation, is the Union party, and the only party having any claim to Nationality. There is a power above and around us, ha\iug charge of our destiny, against which the puny efforts of the time serving paltroons of this disjointed age, may in vain use his poisonous breath. The problem in religion and government, which began its solution at the landing of tbo Pilgrims, will be worked out when the demagogueism of the present day is worked into loam and forgotten.—Baton Rogue[La.] Comet.

Letter of a Dying Wife to Her Husband. The Nashville Gazeetc, say?: Tho following most touching fragment of a letter from a dying wife to her husband, was found by him some months after her death, between the leaves of a religious volume, which she was very fond of perusing. The letter, which was literally dim with tear marks, was written long before her husband was aware that the grasp of fatal disease had fastened upon the lovely torm of his wifo, who died at the early age ofninetoen: -,

When rtiis shall reach your eye, Dear George, some day when you are turning over the relics of the past, I shall have passed away forever, and the cold, white stone will be keeping its lonely watch ever the lips you have often pressed, and the sod will boJ growing green that shall hide from your sight the dust one who has often nestled close to your warm heart. For many long and sleepless nights, when all but my thoughts were at rest, 1 have wrested with the consciousness of approaching death, until at last it has forced it»dUf upon my mind and although, to you aud to otheis, it might seem the nervous imagining of a girl, yet dear George, it is so. Many weary nights have I passed in trying to reconcile myself to leaving you, whom I love to well and this bright world of sunshine and beauty and hard indeed it is to struggle on silently and alone with the sure conviction that I am about to leave all forever, and go down iitto the dark valley! "But I know in whom I have believed, and loaning on His artn, I fear no evil." "Do not blame me for keeping all this from you. How could I subject you, of all others, to such sorrow as I feel at parting, whei time will make it spparant to you? I could have wished to live, if only to be at your side when your time shall come, and pillow your head upon my breast, and wipe the death damp fro® your brow, and usher your departed spirit into its maker's presence, embalmed in a woman's holiest prayer. But it is not to be—and I submit. Yours is the privilege of watching: through long and dreary nights, for the spirits final flight, and of transferring my sinking head from your breast to my Saviour's bosom. And yon shall shear my last thought, sad the last faint pressure of the hand, and the last feeble kiss shall he yours, and even when fle*k and heart thai 1 hare failed me, my

eyes shall reel on yeurs until glased by death and our spirits shall hold one last communication until gently Med from p# view—the last of earth—you shall mingle with the first bright glunpsea of the uafadtng glories of the bettor world, where partings are no more. Well do I know the spot, dear George, where yon will lay me. Often have we stood by the place, and as we watched the mellow sunset as it glanced in quivering flashes thro' the leaves, and burnished the grassy mound around us, with stripes of bright gold, each, perhaps, has thought that one of us, some day, woutd como alone, and whichever it might be, your name would be on the stone. But we loved the spot, and I am snre you will love it none the less when you see the same quiet sunlight linger and play among the grass that grows on your Mary's grave. 1 know you Will go there, and my spirit will be jrith you then, and whisper among the waving branches—"I an not lost, but gone before."

/y We see it stated that the wife of General Monagas, late President of Venezuela has $400,000 a year pin money. It is also asserted that the Monagas family have, during a few years remitted five millions of dollars to Europe for safe investment, and as a provision against revolutionary contingencies

The cost of lighting the- city of

Boston for the coming year will be $146,300: of which the gas furnished will cost 884,000—the fluid, oil and wicking $26,000, and the pay of lamp lighters $17,000. 3.-' ~r

A MEXICAN MOVEMENT.—The New York Tribune of the 27th says that an agent of Yidaurri in New York has authority to procure a loan, by the mortgage of duties on the ^Tortliern frontier, to be used in organizing an expedition of volunteers to aid bis schemes but the Mexican Consul denies the authenticacy of the report, and says the agent has no authority to make such a pledge and that any expedition will be treated a9 filibusters.

REVOLUTION IN VENEZUELA.—We have news from Venezuela to the effect that the partisans of ex-President Paez had raised the standard of revolution agaijist the Monagas dynasty, and that President Monagas was closely besieged in the palace by the revolutionists. Supplies of arms for the Paez party were on the way to Caraccas.

John Mitchel, on unnaturalized Irishman, fiercely denounces in his Knoxville papei the American Union and insists on its dissolation. Such impudence is even more than Irish—it is devilish.

£9"The South Carolina members of Congress are evidently "mad." We are afraid that ''God wishes to destroy them."

Ward Meetings.

There will be a meeting of the People of the several Wards at the usual place of meeting in tbe Wards on Thursday evening next, to nominate a candidate for Couucilmen on the citizens ticket.
