ls40 to believe in General HARRISON, notwith-
standing he had planted himself and was known
TO stand on the strongest Anii-aboliton plat
form. He was committed TO the teeth, and
when he was at that Time charged by the
Washington Globe with being an Abolitionist,
the VINO newspapers of the North We're in the
habit OF appealing TO the record in proof of the
falsehood of the allegation. Surely at that
time the abolition of slavery in the District of
Columbia was no VINO princple-the enter
tainment and agitation of Abolition measures
and movements We're not counenanced pa
ironzed by the WuIGs--Or they We're the
greatest hypocrtes and charlatans that ever
figured on political stage when they cast their
votes and raised their hurrahs for General HAIR
RIsoS
Now, when gentlemen undertake 10 talk of
the ''toneh onored principles" of the VINO
party. we trust we shall not be considered as
dealing in obsolete ideas if We 90 back only ten
years of time. and show the embodiment of
WING doctrine AT that day in 4 Presidential
candidate. We are aware that the Abolition
lists and anti-slavery men are a good deal faster
than they were at that time. 1t was some
years later, and but recently, that they have
ventured to declare themselves, in their public
resolutions aud reports, ''the enemies Of the
Constitution, Union. and Government Of the
United States" as some five or six thousand
young men and women claimed to be in the anti
Slavery Tabernacle at Berlin, Ohio, at mass
convention At that time we had not seen Gas
we have Of late) men publicly conspiring to de-
wise ways and means 10 overthrow the Union
Of the States, on the ground that such over
throw would weaken and extrpate slavery.
True enough it is that the Abolitonsts in 1850
are more dangerous and more numerous than
they were In ashland that politicians may
think 1t more Of an object to intrigue for
their votes; and therefore il is that this anti
slavery and Abolition slip is to be grated
on the tree of WIG doctrine; but we cannot
blame HARRIsoN Wings for not stultifying
themselves by adopting and endorsing as
''time honored" Wing principles the Abolition
principles which HARRISON himself had always
repudiated. The peace and harmony of the
Union are seriously threatened from two differ
ent quarters-from the Abolition enemies of the
"Constitution. Union and Government, (" in one
section and It's pro-slavery enemies in an
other Both are seeking the destruction of the
republic; and we cannot but honor Mr.. DUER,
Mr.. GRANGER and their associates, for their
determination to abide by the platform on which
they stood with HARRISON and the WINGS OF
the Union in lS40 and on which only we may
all stand together at the present day.

waiting some change in the existing policy of the
Government which would enable them 10 resume
operations without the certainty Of loss These
events much TO be lamented as hundreds of
industrious operatives and their families, depend
ent on these establishments, are thus deprived of
employment. and thrown upon the charity Of the
world for their daily support.
:" No man, not familiar with the operations of a
| rolling mill, can form adequate idea of the
am cunt of material and labor required TO carry it
on and the stoppage Of such establishment is a
serious calamity and public loss We understand
that the Armory Rolling Mill worked up annually
1000 tons OF pig iron and consumed about 200, 900
bushels of coal. Estimate the number of hands re-
CURED in the production of this iron and coal-the
number necessary TO transport il to market-the
number needed 10 manufacture the iron, and the
agricultural labor required to feed the various ope-
| ratives, and some idea may be formed Of the ad-
vantagcs resulting TO the community from iron
manufactures. Can any candid man, whether
Wing Democrat with all these facts before him,
say in his heart that the iron interest Of the coun-
try requires aid from Congress- protect it from
the systematic efforts Of British capitalists TO break
| it down; and is not that very unwise and mis-
| taken policy in our Government which can calmly
! submit TO such calamitous results2"

Encouraging News from Texas.

a Geographic despatch from New Orleans,
dated 9TH instant, informs us that Colonel
WALTON the special messenger despatched up
on the It'll ullimo. by the collector of the port
of New Orleans, upon the telegraphic order of
the Government, to communicate to the authori-
ties Of Texas the passage OF the Boundary bill
has returned to that city.
Colonel WALTON reports that, Immediately
upon the arrival of MIR. LEWIS, the bearer of
official information that the Boundary bill had
passed, Governor BELL would issue his proc
lamation submitting to the popular vote the
proposition of the Government involved in the
Texan Boundary bill We are much gratified
that Governor BELL sees nothing so disrespect-
full to the citizens of Texas as to preclude him
from submitting the proposition to them. We
were satisfied that the difficulty between the
executive and Legislative departments of the
government Of Texas was a mere abstract
question of comparative authority that it was
mere collision of dignity, and that the veto OF
Governor BELL was based upon no objection to
the proposition involved in the Boundary bill. OF
this we were satisfied by comparison of that
piIi Will IHe previously -eAPleSSeu oPliiion Vi
the Governor himself We were moreover,
satisfied that the popular branch of the Legis-
lature would be in favor of proposition cor
responding with that recommended to their ac-
ceptance in the opening message of Governor
BELL. This, we think, is quite apparent from
the journals Of that body. We shall hear nc
doubt, Of violent opposition to the Boundary
bill; but in the end, we think the people OF
Texas will assent to its provisions, because
they are founded in a sense of Justice and
a desire of harmony. The action of Texas
will be regarded with great anxiety by Other
States of the South; but if she is content
with the protection Of her interests, afforded
by the Boundary bill. we presume no Other
State will have any right to take offence, OF
resent her acquiescence.

according TO what we CLEAN from the Pitlsburg pa
pcrs, seems to have about the same understanding
of his functions as Robin Roughhead had Of his
when, becoming lord, he prohibited apple dump
lings, and allowed nothing TO be eaten but beef
steak and onions. Mayor Barker has prescribed
all sorts Of municipal regulations and arrested va.
rious grades of judicial dignitsries and police OIL
cers, and has made II necessary at times that he in
his turn should be arrested by some Of them. HE
latest outrage was tho arrest and imprisonment Of
committee of the select councils of Pittsburg
Subsequently, however, Judge Mcclure went TO
the prison, and ]. j. Kuhn, esq, city solicitor ap.
peared ON tho part Of tho committee and it's clerk
and John Mellon, esq, for the commonwealth; when
all the gentlemen who had been committed were
discharged, giving bail in the sum of ono thou
sand dollars for their appearance. Suits, il is said
will at once be entered against the mayor. The
people of Pttsburg appear TO be growing restivc

We learn, from the correspondence of the
Augusta Chronicle, that Mr.. TooMBs addressed
the people of Wilkes county on the 25th ult.,
in speech OF great power and eloquence; and
that it is his intention to issue in few DAYS an
address to the voters of his district. He takes
strong ground against the Dsunionists. and will
maintain the manly and patriotic position in re-
gard TO the Compromise bills which he assumed
after their passage in the House of Represents
tives. Impulsive and impetuous as Mr.. TooMBs
may be, his views and feelings are national, and
his talents must command for him great inhu-

faithful, and capable and promptly ready to
second any and every effort to expedite the bust
ness committed to our charge, and to perform it In
a manner creditable to the Office and TO ourselves.
The rejection OF my nomination US recorder was
indeed unexpected 10 me and my friends, as
had been assured from time to time, during the
late protraced session, by Senators OF both politi
cal parties that no opposition was made to me,
and that would it was presumed be unanimously
confirmed. Without referring particularly
to the to which my rejection is attributable,
take the occasion to say that it affords me much
consolation TO be assured that it was brought
about by misrepresentation ; and that, had it been
known at the moment the vote was taken that the
imputations cast upon me were groundess, as 1t
was in very short time after the result would
have been different.
sion by both Wing and Democratic Senators and
members Of the House Of Representatives. and for
the kind expressions which have fallen from your
selves, from the press, and from friends every

cherish their remembrance to the latest day of my
