patched to Mexican waters to .“ Oofect Ameri-
can interests." The ,Fugitive Slave Law had been
declared by a majority of the Ohio judges as
binding on the inhabitants of that State. A New
York paper in alluding to this decision says A
:revolutionary collision between the .federal authori-
ties and the State authorities of Ohio, has thus been
happily prevented ; and this conspicuous, example of
the binding obligations of the supreme law of the.
land ran hardly fail to produce its good results in
every State of the Union; to the confusion of • nulli.,-
fiers and revolutionists of every section, hue,.stripe,
and degree. The irrepressible -conflict' between
the Ohio abolitionists and what they call the slave
power; -when p- psfied to-the point ,of revolution, as
it was in this -Matter,- demanded, as the -court haS
Wisely decreed, that the work.of revolution should
not be begun by the conservators of the public peace.'
Let our Northern abolition agitators put this into
their pipes -and. smoke it to their hearts' content."

-abolitionist organs. Advices from - Utah represent
that territory as becoming ;daily, more disorganisei,
and a conflict between the Mormons and the Gentiles
was imminent—, - .

YeSterday, tfiefe was exPected a 'great religious
row at the Old Swan, and accordingly the police had
made i arrangements for the suppression' of -blark-
guardism. Th'ere was 'a large number- of 'the police
present. A crowd.of about:3,ooo .peOple„: evidently.
o .'the lowest class of society, assembled and peram-
bulat4d the village and Edge-lane, in frout.of the
Aomori Catholic' 'chapel. They appeared, however,
to be without a leader, and' as the police patrolled in
gretit force and had a heavy reserve at the station,
tlfelt Was no actual violence. Several persons in the
who appeared to be very,: low, characters,
"wore .orange handkercheifs abOnt. their necks, and

evkizip, row took place . yesterday,. on the
site of the Old .Islington Market. About four
o'clock several` parties were engaged.in. expoundinc,
the Seriktures after their own fashion, but as each

ing they assented 'to an amendment being moved
to the Address, expressive of a want of confidence
in the DERBY Ministry ; and by means of the
combination thus formed—and only by such means
did they succeed in carrying that amendment by
a small majority.

And now what is done to keep faith with the
Advanced Liberals, in the issues of that vote ? Why,
comparatively nothing. No sooner is•Lord,PALMER-
STON charged by, the Queen with the formation of a
new Government, than he surrounds himself, not
with those who have principally restored him to his
present elevation, but with the old Whig cliques who
have so often done damage to the Liberal cause. Mr.
BR,IGHT, to , whom Lord PALMERSTON and Lord
JOHN RUSSELL owe more, for their late successes,
than to-any other individual member of the Liberal
party, was never, •we believe; 'Consulted at all, —was
never,. probably, thought of, in their Ministerial
arrangements —except, perhaps, to have his preten-
sions sneered, at. It is this conduct, there, is no
doubt, which, more than any thing else, has
occasioned :the tedious and mischievous delay in

Completing. their arrangements. Had the whole
TAberal party been' selected from, ~as it ought in
common honesty• and, fairness to have been, there
would not.ha.ve arisen any such difficulties as those
Which:hake skk much hindrance in the
construction of the new -Ministry. The party, as a
whole, 'gave assurance that- there would be 'no
difficulty whatever in their carrying on the QUeen's
