Wisconsin, etc., we copy the following
from the "Feedoinan" an able whig jour
nal published at New Brunswick, New
Jersey. 1t says:
"Putting aside the question of slavery
in the abstract, and regarding the institu-
ton as one of those inevitable things
which has been deliberately recognized
and provided for, and which, for the
present, must be submitted to, it cannot
be denied that the South has great reason
to complain of interference, bitterness
and uncharitableness, and has much to
offer in the extenuation of the harsh
Judgment she has formed and the violent
measures she proposes. We doubt in
deed if the North would be more patient
or patriotic under similar trials and veXa-
tions We doubt if any other potion of
the Union would quietly submit to such
attacks on the rights of property, and to
such disregard of constitutional suaran-
tees. We should therefore make every
allowance for the excitement at the South,
and strive to render the Union one of
such unqualified and indispensable ad
vantages as to make every man interest
ed and hearty in preserving 1t.
Now tell us which of the tw, parties,
is most entitled to the con6delce of the
people of the South.

ANOTHER R1or.-Philadep phia has been
the scene of another disgr$eful riot be-
tween two Fire Companies The contest
commenced on Saturdayland continued
throughout the following Sunday. On
Saturday night one company took the
apparatus of the other And threw it into
the Delaware river, ynd on Sunday the
parties met at a fire, armed with guns,
pistols and knives, and commenced the
attack by dischargitg their guns at each
other, and using their other weapons.
One of the parties was killed and fifteen
or twenty wounded, some Of them Sc
verely. The police were beaten off by
both parties, while attempting to quell
the disturbance. Order was finally re-
stored by the sheriff with strong force.
Occurrences Of this character have been
too frequent in Philadelphia, and will
continue to be so until more summary
measures are adopted to suppress them.
They are gotten up by a lawless gang,
who are no acquisition to the place, and
the sooner such assemblages are dispersed
as were the recent riotous-gatherings in
New York, the better it will be for the
peace and order of the city.
