Hon. augustus Young and The Bankrupt La,o
The Free Press of the lih contains letter from
Hon Augustus Young, member OF Congress for
the fourth district, defending his course on tho
bankrupt act The length Of this letter is such as
10 prevent us from copying it, at least ut present.
and we shall therefore very briefly state what we
understand to be the gist of it. Mr.. Young is
now, and hus been, from the time the present act
was presented, opposed TO il, in It's present shape
for The following reasons; Ist that 1t is not such
an act ms he deems TO he contemplated hy the pow
or granted in the Constitution (; 3D. that he con-
sders ii too much Of the nature ofan experiment
upon the confidence aud integrity Of community;
s. 3D., that he deems i, rather bdnkrupts law Than
bankrupt law in other words, law too excu-
sively for the benefit of debtors and against the
interests of creditors. lie voted for it, neverthe-
less, at the extra session-Grst, because it was then
so identified with the distribution act that both
must stand or fall iogeihcr and secondly, because
the operation of lhe act WINS postponed 10 the mid
de Of tie Oleu) next session ihe present) Of Con-
gress, giving ample time for amendments TO per-
feet the act ami there was an understanding, or
pledge, that these amendments should be made.
~ inc present SeSSltH VI COnDIlhnCc win tnlS
understanding an fort was made by the friends
Of the hill to amend il; Mr. Young voted with
them, aud on one occasion, by his sole vote, lie
turned tho scale in favor of amending the bill
--bul, as all know, this attempt to amend the bill
fuay defeated, BY The iocofocos THUS the
amendment OF the net, which Mr.. Young with The
main body Of lhe Wings had attempted in good
faith to their pledge 10 carry out, was Defeated
Then new question was prescnted-it was
whel,r the ACT should go into effect without a.
mendment2 MIR. Young believed it inexpedient,
aud therefore voted for tile repeal. This is con-
derscd statement of Mr.. VS. reasons and in our
opinion he is fully justified in his course. He did
what he rould TO secure such bankrupt law ns
lie believed to he warranted 10y the constitution
and consistent with the good ofthe country and
on The correctness Of his opinions on this impor
lnnt matter he abides the decision of his cousiIu-
ents. " hat more can be reasonably asked of
him? There are in the letter, some personal pas
sages touching the editor of the Free Press, which
we were sorry to see, as they add little or nothing
to Nj. Young's defence, and are likely to be The
occasion of controversy which will do good ne-
Their TO the immediate parties nor their political
friends.

THE CONVENTION.

The mass of the people, we begin TO hope, are
ready TO move in an effort to demand that protec-
ton and relief which it is the duty of the govern
men, TO give. The mass ofthe people, we sey,--
for we are happy to acknowledge, tina, in despite
of the prohibition Numbered from the Patriotic
tripod, there arc men in the locofoco ranks far
sighted enough to sec the interests of the people
and independent enough to assert them. Such
men have signed the call such, we hope will at
tend the meeting 10 the end that il may be really
and truly gathering OF The people, and not par

LETTER FROM AN AMERICAN IN PARIS.

me supremacy Of The seas---ihe designs of Great
Briicn diiedged 10 be defeated.
In recent accounts from Europe our reade,s
have undoubtedly noticed that u treaty be.ween
England, France, Russia, Austria and Prussia ha.
been negotiated, oslensibly for the purpose of sun
pressing the slave trade. This embraces the oues
ton of The right Of search, which was prime
cause Of the last war between The U. S. and Great
Britain, and is now, as then. resisted by our gov
eminent Queen Victoria, in her speech from the
throne on the I'd ut, received by the Acadia, thus
audes TO this matter:
!" II is with great satisfaction inform you that
have concluded with the Emperor of Austria
lie King of the French, the King of Prussia and
the Emperor OF Kussia Treaty for the effectua
suppression Of the slave trade, which. when the
Publications shall have been exchanged, will he
communicated - Parliament
BY the same arrival intelligence is received from
France to the 10th Feb, and il is, that the French
Government require a modification OF the treaty
but modification which, the British presses
seem to think, will not materially affect the rea-
ty. The following letter from Paris, addressed to
the senior publisher Of this paper, goes to show
that the real designs of Great Britain, which are
supposed to be altogether different from a beney-
client purpose to suppress the slave uade,-will be
defeated. The writer is gentleman we'll known
in the diplomatic circles OF Paris, and indeed has
held, for several yenrs, diplomatic Office. We
believe his opinions aud statements arc at least
much more entitled to confidence than the suppo-
stious of the London editors.

in favor of r. NJ. Johnson, on the ground that he

will be no want of candidates, probably; but from
the list the people will not seriously begin to choose,
we suspect, until the close of le43 or beginning
