" In' the Address before the Teachers' Imitate,

the following errata: "alas" for "also," "abore"
-for" alone," " ?zten's" for man's ;" and The words,
We are carried from season to season, at the 'rate
of 68,000 miles per hour,' were omitted, which pea
toile subsequent language a wrong reference."
We are surprised that there were' no more mis
takes ; for, as tan as the Address was put in type,
the maniscriptwent to the Dermot-rat office, and we
bad no opportunity of comparlngthe "proof' With
the " copy"—et least, we could-oot compare it with
out !inch inconvenience. The right way is, to, fur

the Correctness-with which the article is printed may

re it will tW seen, by the ' letters pliblished on
our first page, that we have consented to aid Charles
H. Weeks, " the converted actor," a little, in _ketp 7
tag his name before the public. We hare ,:neither
time nor space to spend in controversy with hint,
and shall content ourselves with livery brief re•state
mart of facts, and leave the valOrous esalererend to
his threatened action'of libel. The pointy at issue
flre briefly these whether the family of Caleb Weeks
are suffering from want, and whether Charles H.
Weeks.bas helped id support them. The first, the
actor stated as his excuse for leaving the pulpit for
the stage. We contradicted this statement,' and
averred—what everybody in Montrose knows—that
the family are in comfortable circumstances, so far
as the possession of the necessaries of fife is ecincern
ed.. In his letter to the Times, ;the actor' does not
attempt to countered our position on this point, es,
cept impliedly by undertaking to prove by his mall
et's letter teat he has helped them. The main ques
tion, then, is whetherke has helped them. The Rev.
Mr. Backus states very truly that be could not have
helped them for the -eight years previous . to his re
turning home, for during that time, according to his
own statement; which agerre with that of the 'farnily
here, he did not even keep up a correspondence with
them, and they did not know where he was„"or what
he was doing. Be came home penniless, as be also

there is danger that this, their last desperate
chance for office;wal fail them. Unless they get
these Cuban offices from Mr. Buchanan, it is 'to be
feared that they will never get • them at all. And
there are great difficulties in the way of Uncle Sam's

present. • to my nothing of the opposition offered
by her somewhat superannuated mother, England
and Frame both forbid the banns. Even if be could

France forthe possession of the handsome quadroon,
• where is the money to come froth, we shouldine to

We cannot buy Cubs; that is evident-; first, be-
cause weave no Money ; and, in the next place, be
cause Spain refuses to sell. Then, the only akerna

sents Itself: our very.. 'best stealing General has
turned monk; or, at least, : has become • Catholic
priest:. General William Walker la now Father
Walker, and *could he opt to use such weapons as
his new calling permits in defence of the Island
against the assaults of the heretics, rather than to
fight in oar behalf. We must give up Father Walk
er as a General, except of the order of bier's gray,"
or of St. Sometsay, and must look elsewhere for a
filibuster chief.. Ile has had enough of earthly glo-
ry, which is only transitory. The prospects of our
friends who expect so flinch from Cuba, look equally.
But-they are themselves men of nerve and courage,
or they never could have conquered and overthrown
the Democracy of Penturyliinia as they lately did at
Harrisburg.. Then, let them make a bold posh, or
ganize i filibustering expedition, and lead it in per-,
son. They can he spared from Pennsylvatia. They
are without a party here, and their friends all live be
low.. Driven out by stress of polities from the bleak
North, let them swoop down %mix Cuba as the wild
and hungry NrWthmen used to swoop down upon the
sunny and fertile plains of Southern Europe. - Bay-.
ing conquered the Island, and driven off ' Spain,
France, and England, they will then of course be
the first on the grew/J.° avail themselves of the
fruits of conquest; and the , lion's share of • the
plantations and _offices, sugars and "niggers," will
fall to their lot.
When we reflect how completely the . Convention
outraged the public sentiment -.of Pennsylvania, we .
cannot doubt that its members had some such scheme
in view. They evidently contemplated emigration.
What so natural as that they should turn their long
ing eyes towards Cuba!
tir One act, or rather wanted action; on the part
of the national administratio' has won the praise of
the New York Centairy—that is, tacitly concurring
in the treaty lately concluded between Great Britain
and Nicaragua, whereby the fleets of the former arc
to defend the latter against the incursions or
tens and pirates in general: Tice following is an ex
tract from the Ceittii ry's article:
By leaving the initiative movements for a treaty
of protection to Great Britain, Xr. Buchanan has
given Walker and the Scinthern confederacy a romp
de order, and for this he deserves the cordial thanks
of all persons who are opposed to the establishment
of a slave despotism, on military principles," in
Central America. There was-economy too, as well
as merit in the paGey. The President is presumed
to know, or 'direst his Navy Secretary might in
fonn him, that the Navy of the United States is a
small one, and that by empkrying English vessels of
war to protect the Mai-slavery interest of the North,
be was not only Serving the caruie—of human 'free
dom, but actually saving money to the treasury, and
obviating the necessity Man increase of the Wilt
We know that many of our made* prejudiced:
against the present administratirm by its Kansas poli
cy, will blame us sorely for entringapon its defence.
But what does that matter? Mr.Bochanan did right
in breaking up the se4eral Welker expeditions' by
doing sight he earned praise, and praise be most' nd
shall have, although our giving it to him prlduces in
ourselves a painful sense of loneliness and maiden._
The first fruit of Iv. Buchanan's parley 'will' be
seen in the protection extended by Great .Britain to
Nicaragua against those new expolifions that are to
rendezvous in Arizona. The presence of American
vessels of war will not be required to iratereeptthole
expedition'. Nicaragua, for the future, is secure
against Walker and his filibusters. '

Qtattuarrox, S. C., March 28, 1859
I have just returned here, latter &Amity
trip to Savannah. While sluing in my hotel
there, Lamar, .the owned: of the Wanderer,
drove up to the door in a light trotting wag
on, with a magnificent black horse. A 'stupid
looking negro boy, set off with brass buttons
.and a fancy cap, was otrthe seat beside him.
He ordered-him to stand up end bow to the
gentlemen, and then he made a short speech,
abon't as follows: • . .
"Gentlemen, this is a real Aflican, import
ed in the Wanderer, tie belongs to me, and
I would like to see the United States officer
that dare lay bands on him."
He then drove oft and I Ittetsitrei heard
that he stopped at different places in the city,
and made the same speech • also, that he
boasts of having a cargo of s laves now on the
way, which he means to land openly at Sa
vannah.
The prevailing opinion is apparently in fa
vor of reopening the sla trade. People say
it is no worse than the coelje trade, and I sup.
pose it is not. lam inclined to think, lam
ever, that there is a sound sentithent of hu.

• t ar The Democracy of the Buchaneers
iS thus characterized by the Harrisburg Sen.
tine!, Fublished by C. D.' Hineline, State
Printer :
harms Dsmocsteer.—We have just now
an adulterated Dem s ocracy - in the land as poi
sonous as the famed Upas—a Democracy
which teaches absolute idolatry of rulers; or,
what is about the same, slavish submission to
whatever they decree; whether right or wrong. .
Such is the Democracy of those who support
Mr. Buchanan. They are enemies to thii
country—traitor:dislike to principle and liber
ty—"wretched creatures," Who must "bend
their bodies, if Caesar but carelessly nod on
them."
It is humiliating, 'mortifying, to see how
low human nature can descend ; tuiw basely
it can cringe and fawn ; how it can play the
spaniel, and
,liek the feet of its master ; or the
ape, and amuse the crowd with grimaces
and grotesque attitudes when be commands !
But worse, worse than all, is. to sec men
of reputed sense do this ; men who know
better ; who have read Mr. BuChanan through
like a book, and know him to be unworthy—
to secauch men exerting their time and tab=
ants to teach ignorenel to adore a man whom:
_the intelligent despise end the virtuous con
demn—this is indeed agonizing. It is such
putrid Democracy as this that is filling the
land with stench and creating disease which
must prove fatal if not speedily ar ‘, ted.
