These are the facts; and it is left to the judg-
ment of the country to say whether they need
comments in order to q full understanding OF
them. Here are 62 members of what is called
the Democratic Republican Party. in the nom
sIaveholding States, and Cd of what is called the
Whig party-and the question is whether re-
solution proposed by general meeting of the
Southern members on the subject of slavery
shall be, in effect rescinded or not. This then,
is a test question and any one who will look at
the vote will be at no loss to distinguish friends
from enemies-Not solitary Northern Whig
voted in our favor J; while, on the part of their
opponents, but nine OF the whole number voted
against US. And further-eyery Representative
from the slaveholding States voted in support
of the resolution but taco and these too were
Whigs-to wit: Mr.. Underwood, of Kentucky.
and Mr. Williams. Of Tennessee. Such are the
facts. and they require no comment
We are not called upon to say that the resoIu-
ton of Mr. Patton, as proposed by the Southern
Delegation. was wise or prudent. This may
not be- We knoto that it was recommended in

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. At about two o'clock
A. M. yesterday morning, FIRE broke out in
building on Tchoupitoulas st. opposite the new
market. Great exeTtions were made BY our
energetic corps of fremen to extinguish it, but
they were not successful until after serious dam
age had been done. The flames communicated
to many adjacent buildings, and among those
consumed, are enumerated two coffee houses. a
dry goo6s store and two foundries. The prin-
cipal sufferers are, Messrs Keller. Dimond and
E, B. Cogswell & Co. An insurance it is said.

arrest discussion, until. by consultation, more
studied and decisive measures of security could
be devised. Wequote the facts merely to show
that those who profess to be anxious to avoid
agitation-and who are most liberal in their
denunciation of the conduct and others, are the
very men who are voting to keep the question
open, that agitation may ensue And why p
the future will answer. We are most firmly
persuaded that the infatuated spirit of President
making is at the bottom Of the business We
shall see-and we do now solemnly warn the
country against the consequences,

JUST RBToRT.-Several white abolition ladies
of Massachusetts, lately got up petition to the Le
gislature of that State, praying that the law might
beFepealed which forbids marriages between white
pr pie & persons of color. But the 'black gemmen"
OF Boston have idea of being wooed in this way.
They got up counter petition, and turned up their
ebony noses with disdain at the idea of such an
alliance. They pray the Legislature to continue
the Law, in order to preserve the purity of the
African race.

The subjoined extracts from letter, received

that the whole Northern frontier is tranquil
This officer has displayed equal zeal, ability, and
discretion. in the measures he has adopted to
maintain the character and good faith of the
country and to protect our rights from violation.
He has been ably seconded by Lieut. Colonel
WORTH. whose energy and perseverance in the
prosecution of the enterprise, with which he was
charged by his commanding officer, entitle him
to high commentator.
The measures of paci6cation adopted by Gen.
SCOTT to restrain the excitement and protect
our territory on the Vermont frontier, were en-
trusted to Brig. Gen. Wool, who, in conjunc-
ton with the Governor of the. State, succeeded
in carrying them into successful operation.

Extracts from a letter Of Major General Scott to
the Department Of Var, dated

BUFFALO, February 5, 1888.
AFTER much uneaslness on my part, on ac-
count of the Detroit frontier and the safe arrival
of the troops sent hence in the Robert Fulton, l
have the honor to report that this morning, by
the return of my express, received the most
satisfactory replies from both his excellency Gov
ernor Mason, and Brigadier General Brady,
dated the Cd instant, copies of which are here
with enclosed. BY these it will appear that
the tranquility of that frontier has been entirely
restored, and that the regulars, without the aid
of single volunteer, are deemed sufficient for
its future tranquility.
at may be thought, possibly, that l sent thi-
ther too large portion of the regulars from this
frontier; but please reflect, that at the time l
State above this, for troops: but l knew that the
Detroit frontier was in much danger; that Brig
adler General Brady had not a regular soldier
within his reach that much had already been
done to tranqnilize this frontier, and that l re-
tanned sufficient force, regulars and volunteers,
to maintain It's tranquility. Besides, the appear
ance of the two steamers, the Robert Fulton and
New England, all along our shore of the lake,
with United States troops, had the happest effect
in allaying the excitement, almost universal a.
mong our citizens. and in preventing any unlaw-
full movement on their part
81 think too much praise cannot be given to
Lieutenant Colonel WORTH for the extraordinary
zeal. perseverance and energy by which he sue
ceeded in reaching Detroit in the Robert Fulton,
with the troops sent hence. Much credit is also
due to Lieutenant Homans, of the navy, whom
! had placed in the nautical charge ofthe boat.
A copy of Lieutenant Colonel Worth's report to
me, dated the 28th ullimo, is herewith enclosed.
1t is highly satisfactory.
"This officer has this moment arrived, through
the peninsular opposite, having crossed the Nj
agara from Queenslon 10 Lewiston. He con-
firms all the favorable reports above. He thinks
there may be 5000 British troops, regulars and
volunteers, between the Detroit and Niagara
rivers, on the other side, of whom fourth, per-
haps third, are regulars. He saw many large
detachments; was received with high courtesy
every where, and with military honors at Sand
wich. The British authorities expressed much
satisfaction with our movements in support Of
the obligations of neutrality.
Captain Wright and Lieutenant Talcott,
both of the army were among the gentlemen
who returned with Lieutenant Colonel Worth"

General Scott, dated

"In reference to this expedition, am happy to
to say that its effect has been beneficial equal to
your most sangune expectations, both as tend
ing to disperse the hostile expedition, and re-as
sure the well disposed portion of our people.
The lesson has taught the violator the ability
