THE UNION IN DANGER.

The refusal Of the Executive Of New
York to surrender the fugitives from Jus.
tice demanded by the State Of Virginia.
is not only an outrage upon the rights Of
Virginia and a Ragrant violation Of the
Constitution of the United States, but is
palpabIe infraction Of the established
principles Of international law; and it is
the duty and interest of all the other States
in the Union to express their disapproba.

must be condemned and retraced. There

iustifabIe and Iawless--so wanionly and
totally regardless Of the rights and feel

obligations Of The compact BY which the
States are bound together. Under the
laws of nations, says distinguished pub
l,c iurist, "eve,y State is bound TO deny
an ASYLUM TO criminals" and is, therefore,
obliged to deliver up fugitives upon de-
msnd, "as we'll in the case of the subjects
Of the States surrounding, as in the case

The fugitive" Here, then, the act is con-
demned by general law, founded upon
the broad principles Of reason and justice
which applies to all enlightened and civil
lied nations, though in their respective
governments totally distinct and indePen-
dent of each other. But how much more
is i. condemned by the express provisions
of the instrument by which our States are
connected in the closest bonds of union,
which plainly and pointedly provides that
"a pers"n charged in any State with trea-
SON, felony, or other crime. who shall flee
from Justice, and be found in another
State, shall, on the demand of the Exc

he fled, be delivered up, to be removed

to carry along with him one f his chill

is not all unusual practice amongst the
Highlanders, who accuslom their children
from the earliest infancy to endure the
rigors ot the climate. After traversing
his pasture fnr some time attended BY his
dog, the shepherd found himself under
the necessity "f ascending summit at

~ Crown of Flowers was placed upon tho brow Of
Her Majesty, who expressed her sense Of the honos
conferred in very neat and happy reply.
The house was crowded with merry faces Of all
ages, and mover have seen moro general satisuc-

partaking of bountiful supper. The address and
response were the production Of Miss s. PHELPS the
