The Electra, Robinson, has arrived at
Philadelphia, from London. She brings
London papers to the 18th, and a South
ampton paper of the l7th, which would
contain London news of the leth-Paris
papers of the 18th state, that ministers
had resolved to commence hostilitles as
speedily and vigorously as possible.
A confirm alton is said TO have been
received in London of the revolt of a
French regiment ON the frontiers of
Spain. .
"Out OF 1852 men, of which Sergean,
Mercier's company consists, 1913 have

of the Earl of St. Vincent, G. c. B, in
his 8oth year, at his seat at Rochetts
near Brentwood.
Mr.. Secretary Canning, we regret to
hear, is still confined, not only to his
ruum, but to his bed. His physicians,
however, have confident hopes of an
early restoration to his health.
The Lord Chief Baron was taken very

OPINION ABROAD.
From the Woodstock (Vt.) Observer.

1iohh liz VooooloSh OubeTfGT.
The Legislature Of the state of Illinois
have passed a resolution, recommending
the call OF a convention for the purpose
OF altering their constitution. 1t is said
that the object is to strike from that in
slrnment the prohibi.ory clause on the
subject OF slavery, SO that in future The
freemen OF the state may traffic in human
hesh, the blood and sinews of The chill
dren of Africa. Whence arises among
them this disposition for the introduction
OF slaves, is beyond our knowledge.
There is not state in the Union, in our
opinion, where slavery is tolerated, which,
were they now destitute of slaves, would
alter their situation, and introduce them,
could it legally be done. Were the
states of Virginia, Maryland, the Carroll
mas and Georgia, as free from slaves as
the northern states, or the states north
west of the Ohio river, they would not
at this period change their situations to
slave states. What iDfatuation has seiz-
ed the minds OF the members of the
legislature of Illinois is uncomfortable,
ain " PoHSt Va iSdooh W VA
plain. 1t is devou,ly to be hoped that
the people of the state will not sanction
the mad project by changing the noble
fo~.~.a. Of their constitution, which now
prohibits the dealing IN slaves. and open
the hoodgates of cruelty, slavery and OPP
preston. They should look to posteri-
ty, and not suffer their anxiety to change
the wilderness to fruitful fields to be the
cause of the introduction of an evil, which
will prove to their descendants scourge
instead of a blessing. They may depend
upon it. that the generations which will
arise after them, will execrate their me-
mories, if they now foolishly and wicked
ly destroy the barrier which prevents the
cultivation Of their soil by the hands of
slaves.

pie of Illinois should deny to them the
privilege of freely expressing their OPT
Mons, not only, upon the fundamental
principles of government, but upon a
great moral question also-upon an evil
which all must admit, and which every
good man must deplore Is it for such
purposes that the editors of the Repub-
lican and their party are now making
such violent efforts in favor of conven-
ton ? We altogether differ with them in
their views upon this subject. We con-
ceive it is not only the right, but the du-
ty, of the ministers of religion to inter-
fere in the great moral, as we'll as poll
teal question, which now unhappily agi-
tates this state. Let the people decide
between US.
To give place to the favots of our cor
respondents, we defer the discussion
of other topics, embraced in the edito-
rial article from which the foregoing
extracts are taken, till next week.
