The Abolition Party-Its OrganixatiOn-Ita
Power In the Coming Election.

ROVER In the coming ElectlOns
II is now admitted on all hands by the wings, as
we'll as the locofocos, that the organization of the
aboli ionlsts into party, which has been brought
about by the agitation of the slave question in
Congress during the last few years, principally .by
whig members, will exercise a most powerful In
f1uence the presidential election, and hence the
most gloomy forebodngs begin TO oppress the
minds of the friends of Mr.. Clay, with respect to
the particular direction which this influence may
take. The abolitioniss as party are organized in
all the free States, particularly in Ohio New York,
and Massachusetts, and partially in Pennsylvania
and New Jersey. At the recent elections they
took about 60 900 votes in all these States but du-
ring the last year their movements and general
agitation have been conducted on more compre-
hensive scale than on any former OCCASION and
we should not be at all surprised, if during the en-
suing election they were to number 100000 votes
IN all the free States, and perhaps that number
The principal point, however, to which we in
tend to direct the attention of readers at pre-
sent, is the position and power of the abolitionlsts
as presented by themselves, and admitted by all
parties in the State of New York at this particular
moment.
About week or ten days ago, convention of
the abolitionists met at Utica. At this convention,
we learn from their own organs, that, at least four
thousand persons were present The convention
continued in session for some days, and it APP
pears that they discussed deliberated, and
adopted general plan OF agitation from
this time till November, throughout the whole
State of New York About nine years ago the
first Convention OF these men in this State was
held in the same place, Utica. But unpopular
was the movement at that time, that they had to
dlsperse themselves before the impending excite
ment of the people of Utica, who considered them
selves disgraced and outraged by such an assem-
blage. Oa the present occasion from their position
from holding the balance of power between the
two great political parties-from their organization
from their enthusasm-and their stern purpose
OF going ahead-they have commanded the atten-
tion of bothParties, and it is an absolute fact that
both parties are beginning to crouch to these abo-
lltlonsts, who will probably number from twenty
thousand 10 twenty FIVE thousand in the State of
New York
This Convention at Utica have issued report on
their present position, decaratory of their views,
two parties, which is Of such curious character,
and has such an important bearing on the coming
election, that we annex the material portions of il

Rows AND BLoopsHED ExPEcrED.-We expect
bloody times in New York at thc coming election.
The political clubs of each party, composed of the
elite of the nineteenth century, have already had
three or four bloody encounters in the streets, in
which hundreds were engaged on side, and
more riots may be expected every day. We have
no police in New York, under Mayor Harper, worth
a straw. These fighting clubs are supplied with
money, and set upon each other, like bulldogs, by
mon and saints who build churches and monopolize

The Meeting OF the Natives Last Night.

The Meeting OF the Natives Last Night.
We give in another column an accurate report of
the proceedings and speeches at the " Native" +"
meeting last night. This party has now quite set
tied down into the residuum, consisting Of the BIZ
gotry, intolerance and religious sectarianism with
which it started into existence. 1t does not now
pretend to talk about city reform. All that has
evaporated, and nothing now remains but the old
spirit which dictated the alien sedition laws, and
sectarian hostility to the Catholics as a sect.
We have always steadily opposed the introduction
of religious intolerance into politics. When cler-
gymsn have entered the political arena, we have
unsparingly denounced them. And with equal de-
termination we set our faces against any body OF
men who band themselves together against any par
ticular sect in religion. And the good sense Of the
American people is always certain to pronouce
just judgment OF condemnation on such conduct
The faithlessness of the Native" party to all
their promises of city REFORM has of course entire
ly destroyed their influence. Many adopted citi-
zens voted Tor them at the last election and great
mass Of the respectable and intelligent Of both
the old parties who anxiously desired reform of
the city government. Was it the bigotted intole-
rance and sectarianism of the " Natves'-ther
silly TRADE against the Pope and the Irish that at
tracted such men to their ranks !? Most assuredly
not. And all such have already dissolved their
brief connexion with party whose principles and
conduct lead only as we have seen to violence,
bloodshed and confagraton.

GREELEY AND New YoRK PoLrTIcs-Philoso-
pher Greeley begins to the light at last, and no
doubt his conscience begins to tell him that he
has been one Of the small instruments OF getting
the wings into the present desperate position in
which they stand. Hear the philosopher

fer Henry Clay to james Polk for President and that

Caus success but the most desperate efforts
that end will prove unsuccessful.
And yet no man has been more active in the
work Of raising clamor for liberty of speech and
distractions about slavery, than this philosophers
clamor which has given to the abolition party that
formidable character which he now deprecates
so repentantly. The truth is, that set of more
eggregously unwise men never existed than that
to be found amongst the lists Of whig leaders,
tors and editors.

STATE OF BRoApwAy.-We believe it is now
generally admitted, that Broadway is in more
forlorn condition, as street, than ever it was be-
fore, under the regime Of any previous party. The
gulies-broken pieces of pavement and all sorts
of distractions innumerable, between the Bowl
ing Green and Union Square, and render this great
thoroughfare exceedingly dangerous for vehicles
Of all sorts Is there no possibility OF having
Broadway repaved! Caanot some scheme be pro-
posed and adopted Of paving it with square blocks
OF granite, which can be so easily obtained on
Staten Island, so that we may at last have de-
cent street9 As to the idea of having railway
through Broadway, it is utterly preposerous. That
is, in fact, one Of the most absurd and dangerous
projects that could possibly be suggested. Let
Broadway be repaved in the manner we have
described, and il will be the finest street on the
oontinpnf

THE PRINCIPLES OF THE CoNTEsT.-THE N, Y.
WnIe The wings at National Hall on
Thursday evening, issued the best, the shortest,
and most comprehensive address and resolutions
we have seen on that side. Here are the resolu-

and which was effected in two minutes and half.
During the operation, an all but Inaudihle moan
ing was heard and a slight movement of the body
was perceptlble f; but as far as could be judged,
there was entire absence of pain. This was e.
WINGED by the countenance preserving throughout
the greatest pIucdity, not a single motion of a
muscle indicating such sensation. On being de-
mesmerized, the patient was not aware OF what
had taken place till informed by those in attend
ance. In the afternoon, great pains were felt in
the ons, attended with considerable wrlIhlng OF
the body from the contraction OF the muscles, but
on resorting to the mesmeric influence these grad
uaIIy ceased, the patient falling into sobnd sleep,
which lasted an hour and forty minutes, and
when aroused, all pain had entirely left her and
has not been felt since. When facts like these
have occurred at "A distance, some degree ofdiH-
credit has been attached to them from suspicion

so astonishing, and at the same time so well at

enable mind can reject them. One thing seems
established by this case, that whatever the mesmer-
ic state may arise from, it is capable OF being
made available for important medical and surgical
purposes.-London Times.

The MesmeriC Influence.

The wonders of meslnerism are not altogether
unknown to the people of Leicester, but case has
occurred this week which has eclipsed all previous
facts, either here or at a distance We aude to
that Of the amputation of limb on Thursday last
The patient is young woman Of the name of Ma
ry Ann Larkin, 10 Fleet street, in this town, who
have been afflicted with disease of the knee Joint
for four years. The precise nature of the disease
we do not know, hut it was attended with enor-
nous swelling Of the limb, and with such excrucia-
ting pain as to prevent any thing like consecutive
rest for long period. BY these pains and want Of
sleep, she had become reduced to a mere skeleton
and there was every probability that her life must
be sacrificed, or the limb ampuatcd. In this crit
lcal state, about month ago, it was suggested
that meSmersm should be tried on the patient g.
it was found that its influence was of the most be-
nefcia and soothing nature. Under its influence
pam would cease, and the patient would sink into
perfect and refreshing repose. AS ampuaton of
the diseased joint was deemed essential by her
medical attendant, it was decided that the opera
ton should be performed while in the mesmeric
state. Accordingly, 10 O'Clock on Thursday morn
ing was fixed upon for the operation to take place.
Mr. Holdings was the mesmerzer, and Mr. Toss
will the operator, besides whom there were pres
ent, DR.. Shaw aud Messrs Paget, Selden if. Dow
ming. Mr. Holdings having mesmerized the pa
tent, which was accomplished in about nine min
utes, MIR Toswill proceeded to perform the opera
ton.
The limb was taken off within about five inches
Of the hip joint, the spot measuring SO inches in
circumference where tbs slnputation took place,

forming an opinion, shall think otherwise. Strange
that we are juSt now, in 1914, learning the A. B.
G. of lawful liberty Strange that we have yet
TO compel the Supreme Court to apply against
slavery, their own Qrue) doctrine, in the Mississ-
ippi Case that no part of the Constitution recog-
nlzed the idea Of property in human beings. That
will strike down the Virginia charge against me,
ifthey can be held TO it, and not eat their own
words, as the majority did in the Prigg case. Two
of that majority, including the worst foe of Liber-
ty on the Bench, Baldwin, have since gone to their
account.
How wonder on. While write, feel as if
were sitting by your side, talking over the prog
ress Of opinion and legal reform, as in old time,
and telling you to put it all in rhyme in you words
of fire. Have you no song for the prisoner? Tell
these slaveocrats, in good, wholesome Saxon Eng
sh, what it is to send men to IL felon's prison for
acts of humanity and Christian charity. Tell
them in the tones of your noble ballad, Cassandra
SouhWck.
While you shake the prison walls of old slavery
from the outside, will Try to do the same from
toISAln And, if these timid folks in Maryland can
be reused, it will be done most etfecualIy, with
Gods help. There! you have my sick bed foliies
and my blessing too for you kindness. God help
your work for the slave. When he is free, it will
rejoice me to sing my nunc dimittis.'
Yours with affection,

Runaway Slaves The St. Louis Era says:-
"Oflicer Couzzns, Of this city, returned last eve
ming from trip to the Canadian line. Some two
weeks since, five or six negro men, belonging to
different citizens ofthls place were missed, and it
was thought they had run away with the intention
of reaching the Canadas. Mr. Couzzins and some
two or three other persons started in pursuit.
When short distance on the usual route taken by
runaway slaves, they struck their trail, and follow
ed in hot pursuit until the negroes crossed the line
which they did some twelve hours ahead of the
officers. From every circumstance connected with
their going Off their is the best grounds to believe
that they we've assisted and persuaded to do so by
aboitionsts and it is stated that white men &C :
companied them along the whole route"

.EoLian Attachment Mr. George Coleman the
young man who invented the Aeolan Attachment
which combines the tones of the piano and organ,
has sold the patent to Reynolds & Clark of New
York city, for the handsome sum of 100 O00 be-
sides certain amount on all the instruments of
this kind manufactured. He has now gone to
England where it is expected he will realize eIOO,
600 more for his Observation-Disclosures
We happen to know, and we are happy to say,
that this 'young Yankee" deserves all the success
he is likely to receive, abundant and overwhelm-

which he is now receiving shch high reward and
distinction, is off most striking character, and can
not fail to he universally adopted. 1t consists in
what he calls the "IEoian attachment" and con-
vers the piano instantly, and at will into the soft
est and sweetest toned organ we ever heard. The
principle OF the invention is in the Introduction of
air to the string Of The piano, so that the sound is
prolonged indefinitely. 1t makes t,Uo Instruments

performer cho oSeS to convert it into an organ,
which is done by touching pedal
One of these instruments was exhibited at the
Scientific Convention, held at Washington, some
months since, under the patronage Of the Nation

and the most marked delight of all who heard it.
