VERNON REPUBLICAN THURSDAY January O ThoSoarilil, B'n'on7 til Cjatra d lotion of Jeff Davis' Message. From the Parii Debats, Deo. II. Notwithstanding the eagerness wb'ob Prsnulunt Dni showi ti) proclaim that the new Statoa of the Smth hyj ni neod of any foreign aUianas. it U vary evidnt that his mani'esto ii ra'.hor ad lrosse I to E trope than to America. In order to be convinced o' that, it is only nicasstrr to loikat tha prom inent placo which oHton holds in the docu moot, and at the q'tostion of slavary, o' which tha aawim ruiy b xnh that it shines by its absence. A'thongh the Eng lish papors have given such a :or lial wol- corae to the mesiajo of President Dtvis, wt do not think it is of such a ntnre to ex sit tod popularize the cause of the Sou'h in tho eyes of those in E irope wh have not be-forehmd come to a determination on the aub ject. What has mo9t struck us in the document, is not the emphasis wi lb. which tha victories of the saparatists over the Federal troops are therein enumerate', but tha vio. lence ol the reciiminations direct id bv the President o the new confederation njiinst the government and the people of tho State who have remiinjd faithful to tho TJ iion 'Our pooplo," says Prcsidant Dvis, 'now look with contemptuous astonishment on tho8j with whom they have been so recently associated. They shrink with aversion from the bare idea of r nawin; such connection."When thoy see a President making war without the aasont of (.'engross when they behold judges threatened baoause they main tain the writ of habaas corpus, so Bicred to freemen when they see justice and law tramplod under thi armad heel of military authority, and upright men and innocent women dragged to distant dungeons when ihey find all this tolerated, and opplau led by a people who had been in the full enjoy" ment of freedom but a few months ago; ihey believe thit thorn mist be soma radical in. compitibility botwaon smh a paopla and themselves. And we alsodo not hesitate to say, that the sanguinary struggle which 18 being carried on bet wen the two fractions of tho great merloan Republic is a sad opec-tacK nnd a subj ct of painful astonishment for Eurnpi, nnd wo have no wish to justify cither the dictatorial mea tires or the rigorous and birbtmtH proceeding with which Mr. Pavis with more or lots roasor reproaoh' es the l'ederal uovernment , particularly that relative to the affair of the Trent. I5u what still mora astonishes anl atllicts m to see the President of the new con federation the chief of those e'ght mil ions ofm"n wh havo broken their bond with their old gov ernment in ordor to dofend slavery, invoki tho great principles of right, jmtica and hu inanity, ana even namt 1 rcvtlenco in sup port of that detestable cause. "Liberty says Mr. T)ivu in conclusion, "is alwtys won where there exists the unconquerable will t be free, and we hive roa-fon to know th strength that is given by conscio is sense not only of the magnitude hut of the right' eo'tsness of our caute." Those are certain! magnificent words, but in the mouth o President Davis, and applied to the cause which he represents and defends, tbey are not only a monstrous contradiction and scandal, but a blasphemy." The Colored Upper Ten of Fhiiadel pnia, The Philadelphia Press has been giving 9o.ne statistics of the negro nabobs of that cttv. It says; At the head of this class In point of wealth stands Stephen Smith, formerly an exten sive lumber tr.Tchant of Columbia, a man of great business tact, and financial ability and is reputed to be worth over $300 000 He U now an extensive real estate ownor the principal part of which is located in the c;ty of Philadelphia. The next in order are the heirs of Joseph C issey, who began li'e as a poor bat be r, and at the timo of his death was worth $80,000. The late James Prosser left property valued at $40,000. He for a numb'-r of yeirs, kept the principle restaurant on Market street . .The success ofthese roen affords abundant evidence of their sterling worth and great business ca pacities'. Thorrns Drsey the caterer, is es imated to be worth $12,000 to $15,000. C H.Jones and JHenry Gordon, both puhlie caterers, and William Winters, a restaura teur, are each worth several thousands o dollars. , These parlies all commenced life ir. the humblo capacity of private 'waiters and nave, by their industry, ' frugality and economy, raised themselves tcTtbeir presen positions.

Christmas in th.3 CountyJiil-Mar-rlago Estraordiiar. A few days ago a young clorytnin of M rain county wrote to a gentlemm i i this city, confiding to him the plan oi his contemplated marriage, 'The bride elect' desired that the nuptial tie should ho joins 1 by hir Pts tor.

As he could not go to Sivannah. it was mutually resolved by the parties that they should coma to Clevland, and bj muried by the Rev. Pi isonor, in jail! 'Miny Chrlstmts" was tha day chosan for the wedding. Mr. Girdm wis apprisad ol the plan. Also Mr. Craw was consulted and gave his consent to th maasure. Accordingly the bridal party arrived bv the 9.20 train.feur in number brido and bride-groom, bride's father and cunt. Alter due pvopara. tions at the hotel, they repaired at 11 o'clock to the jail.

' It would ba repugnant to the t.nto of any refinad lady to be married in a jail; yet thiro are few women who would not on snaji an occasion, follow their Pastor to prison if they believed he was unjustly confined there.

An overwhelming mass of testimony establishes tho faH that tho slaves in the neighborhood cf Port Royal, who have re. 'used to accompany their masters in their flight to the intorior, have been shot do n without mercy and in large numbers. No slaves have been voluntarily lo.t behind by thair masters, except tho old and it:firm. To show that this bas been a matter of system dictated from the rebel headquarters, we quote tha following from the Charleston Mer cury: , "If it can be shown thnt any good under the sun can come of the intercourse of the Yjtkees with the slaves, we would agree that they should be left with the Yankees. Sup posing that they ar neither carried tdf nor used in any way against us, will they not bo demoralised by Yankie inteio urse? We published few days ago the letter of the Secretary of War ol the United State, Mr. Cameron, to Gen. Sherman, as to the co.irse he should pursue in this expedition with on' slaves. Tho order spke as ful'ows: "Y will in general avail yoursilf of the servtc of any pirsons, whathor lu'itivos from lubor or not, who may off ir themselves to tho na tional Government; you will employ suoh persons in such service as thoy may bo fitted for, either as ordinary empioyeis, or, i. special circumstances! require it, in any other capacity with such orgtnizuion of sqaads, cnmpanio, or otherwise, as you deem most beneficial to th) service.
