Northern Fanaticism.

The pulpit Is making itself as busy as the
press with the Fugitive law at the North. The
political parson of whom we find the following
notice in the Cleayeland (Ohio) papers, is a
worthy compeer of DIR. BEEcHER:
Dr. AIKIs.-This gentleman delivered great
sermon Sunday night on the Fugitive law. We
hope he will publish it, in part or whole. 1t

ARTISAN WELLs-The famous Artesian salt
wells at Kssingen, in Bavaria, commenced
eighteen years ago, and which it was feared
would have to be abandoned as failure, has re-
Gently given the most satisfactory results. The
town is located in saline valley, nine hundred
and cighty-four feet above the level of the Bal
tic sea. Last June the boring had reached n
depth Of eighteen hundred and thirty-seven feet.
and several layers of salt, separated by a strait
Of granite, had been traversed, when carbOnic
acid gas followed again by granite, was found.
Fnnlly, on the 10Th ult., at depth of two
thousand and sixty seven feet, perseverance was
rewarded by complete success. A violent, ex-
plosion burst away the seaffolding built to IA
cilitate the operations, and column Of water,
four and a half inches in diameter, spouted forth
to the height of ninety eight feet above the sur
face. The water--clear US crystals OF a tenn
peraturc of sixty-six Fahrenheit, and is abnn-
dainty charged with salt, 1t is calculated that
the annual product will be upwards Of $780,
900 lbs. per annum, increasing the royal reve
nues by 100000 forms, after dcducting all ex-
penses.

Massachusetts to Georgia sends Greeting

Some years ago when the fu ,ilive Laiinae1
was vainIy demanded of Massachusetts by Vir
ginia, aud the Legislature of the latter Stat,
pissed some threatening resolutions on the sub
jcct, WHITTIER, the Abolition poet, made it thu
theme Of some haunting verses addressed t.
Virginia from Massachusetts. A repetition OF
the same SCENES, only more aggravated, in which
the insult aud the wrong has been offered to
Georgia is thus placed on record for the future
historian Of this country by the Boston Chrono-
type:
FINAL FLIGHT OF THE SLAVE HUNTERS
The paid agents Of the Georgia shareholders have
finally turned their backs upon the metropolis OF
New England, the home of Webster and Elliot,
and gone Off with their ears full of heas to give
the solemn word for the dissolution of the Union
We have it on the authority of Col. Spooner, he

CATION Of the Vigilance Committee who were on
hand TO watch their beg ri and honor them with
an escort out Of the State, were completely evad-
ed. They must have escaped OFT of some
back door which was not watched, or through
the front or one Of the side doors, all of which
were watched disguised rs females, for COL
Spooner ntlirms positively that they went.
We incline to the opinion that they did 90, for
theyconf.ssed to Col. Spooner, and Others whom
they considered fiienly to themselves, they couid
not arrest wiz an or Ellen Crafts, and that if
trey could have done so, they did not think THEY
COULD HAVE TAKEN THEM OUT OF THE STATE.
If this be really so, then great point is gained
Georgia slavcshoIders backed by all the power
of the United States cannot take slave from
the soil Of Massachusetts. The hunters can't
live on Massachusetts soil. Glorious! That is
just as it ought to be. That insures not only
The Union, but something acorth hauing q Union
for.
Still some people doubt whether the scoun
drels have really left U.S. And surely good
watch should be kept against them and the like
Of them. What they cannot do openly, they will
seek to do by the meanest snd most clandestine
stratagem. Shareholders only despise stealing

storm is abroad and is not TO be controlled by any
ordinary exeFtions on the part Of trucking pliti-
clans. Even the negroes are beginning TO partake
of the prevalent excitement, and many of them
say that the sole object of the North is to drive
them out and substitute white labor, but that they
do not intend to go. II is becoming an every day
remark, that if the North should march down her
regiments upon us, that we will whip them with
our negroes. The Southern Rights associations
thr, ughout the State are exceedingly vigant, and
all travelling YANKEES circus companies ct i'd omns
genus are meeting with but q cool reception
wherever they go. The result of the GreenviIle
meeting, of which you will have received notice
of the State with great rejoicing. Mr. Mem
niger met Major Perry and General Thompson on
their own stumping ground, and routed them,
horse, foot, and dragons. In spite of the oppo-
sition of Messrs. Perry and Thompson, strong
Southern resolutions were passed with bu about
eight dissenting voices. A Southern Rights As
ISOLATION was aso formed in the town Of Green
vile, and many signatures obtained. The propo-
sltion to establish Submission print in that place,
fell to the ground stll-born, notwithstanding the
vast amount of cedith by which 1t was backed.
The citizens Of this city take but little interest
in the Nashville Convention, because, say they,
il can be productive of no good. They seem to
think that nothing remains TO be done but to go
out of the Union, and that there is some danger
that the convention may propose something else;
in which event, should South Carolina participate
in their deliberations, she will place herself in
such position that she cannot act independently
afterward The delegates are, however, either all
gone, or are upon the eve of going.

The Boston Outr ga.

We give to-day the statement of Mr. KNIGHT,
one of the victims of the Boston outrage. We
understand he, or his comrade, is candidate on
the submission ticket for the Georgia Conven-
ton. 1t seems he is engaged in manufacturing
in Georgia, and went to Boston to buy ma
chinery. These circumstances, and the kind
ness he experienced there from one or two
firms, account for the apologize tone of
his statement, which however, mikes out a
case bad enough. He omits the handbills
which were posted up in Boston, descriptive
of him and his comrade, and so abusive
He, or Mr. Hughes was nominated on the sub
mission ticket, before he went TO Boston, and

INDIAN WAR IN ARKANsAs.-The Choctaw
Intelligencer says that war has broken out be-
tween the Tonkeways and Wichetaws. The
Tonkcways are cannibals, and have roasted and
eaten one of their antagonists. A battle was
fought on the Goth of September, on or near
small stream called Rush creek. on the road
from Washita to Fort Arbuckle. 4 Caddo
chief states that the Wchetaws had killed a
Tonkeway Indian, which was the occasion of
the fight. The Tonkeways lost five men be-
side their wounded.

A SENSIBLE woMAN-If there is truth in the
following paragraph, ard we doubt it not in the
least, such wife is fortune to any man:
A gentleman in Boston bought two tickets
for Jenny Lnds concert for ten dollars, and
presented them to his wife. She, like sensi-
bic woman, disposed of them to a neighbor, and
with the proceeds paid the bills of the butcher
and mkman and had two dollars left to buy
shoes for the children.

GEoRsIA.-We understand from the best au-
thority that the struggle in Georgia--the present
battle-ground, as il were, of the South--has been
TREMENDOUS, but that an overwhelming majority OF
her people are prepared to acquiesce in the meas
ures and sustain the late action Of Congress,
though they would have preferred that potion
of these measures should have, been disposed of
differently.
We understand, further, that the convention
soon to assemble, will be composed of large ma
jority Of delegates who entertain these opinions
that large majority Of her citizens are strongly
attached to the Union but, at the time, il is
true that there is strong current Of dsunion
timent peryading the public mind of the State.
But we understand, further, that, with those
who have maintained the cause Of the Union, there
s one universal sentiment that the late adjustment
must bs scrupuously adhered to by all sections of

MB. NEBsrER's SUCCESSOR. The Boston Times
has very good authority for saying that Gov. Briggs
is very desirous of appointing to the vacant seat in
the U. S. Senate, Samuel Hoar-,he same individu-
al, we believe, who was delegated and went to
Charleston, TO interfere with the police laws of that
city in regard TO free coored citizens, and who To-
ding nvsed to leave c
and did prudenty depart. 1t must be admitted that
the appointment Of such man, at the present mo-
ment, would be most inauspicious. The secret of
this desire the part Of the Governor, the Boston
Times thinks, is that he wishes the place himself
and he can be gratied without difficulty by an elec-
ton to the U. S. Senate for six years from next
March-provided Mr.. Hoar or some similar politi-
clan be now appointed to serve out Mr.. Webster's
unexpred term, until the Legislature meets. Should
Mr.. Winthrop, however, now receive the Executive
appointment, he will probably be reelected for the
full term and cut the Governor out. Under these
circumstances, we cannot doubt that the Governor
will shuttle the cards so that the trumps will turn up
in his own hands next winter.

MArF1r's DEATH. The death Of the Rev. John N.
Mafit, the distinguished revivaist, occurred under
horrible circumstances, if We may credit the Mobile
correspondent of the Georgia, Citizen. :,
'It appears that four five hundred copies Of the
New York National Police Gazette, charging him
with every abomnation-incest among others-had
been circulated in Mobile. He was driven from
every pulpit derided, ieered. nsulsed whenever he
appeared in public. He was threatened with mob,
aud retired TO village four miles from the city
Here he supplied house with all the pedants Of m
armed castle, learning that lie would be pursued.
His sudden fate then sharply closed his restless and
unhappy life-not tho correspondent boldly charges
