CLERK OF THE HOUSE.

1t will be seen, by reference to our Congressional
proceedings, that Thomas J. Campbell of Tennessee,
has been elected Clerk of the House Of Representa-
tives. Mr.. Campbell was the old Clerk, and, it is
said, is good officer. He is Whig, but sound on
the Slavery question and Southern man. His elec-
tion was secured by the cooperation with the Wings
of Mr.. Venable and seven other Southern Democrats.
We regret that circumstances were of such a char
acter as to prevent the election of the eloquent the
faithful, and the accomplished Forney. Mr. venable,
we are sure, and the other gentlemen above alluded
to, are his devoted friends; and would have reioced
at his success; but they had voted for him day after
day. and the prospect Of his election did not appear
brighten. In the meantime the House was unable to
proceed to business. heavy daily expense being
incurred, and in addition to this if Mr. Campbell had
not been chosen. the probabilities that MIR. Fooe,
an abolition Whig Of Vermont, would have been
elected.
We trust thata much higher honor than this Clerk
ship is in reserve for Mr.. Forney.

THE HUNGARIAN PATRIOTS.

A London correspondent of the Philadelphia North
American writes follows, under date December TO-:
The Hungarian, Polish and Italian refugees, who
were till recently in Widdin, are now at Schumla.
On the 3lst of October the Polishlegion left Widdin.
Before they left the Chiefs took aectionate leave
of the iustrious Kossuth; who was mounted on
fine horse, and was dressed in plain Clothes covered
with blue cloak. He wore low crowned black
felt Hungarian hat adorned with a white ostrich
feather. The venerable Dembinski was present,
dressed in the national costume of Polaa1 hie}opG
silvery beard and care-worn face attEaa enera at
tentiof. Hossuth made an eloquent and Impressive
speech to the Polish legion in which he referred to
IL generous hospitality shown to the refugees by
the and the Turks, and to the cheering SYM
pathy Of foreign nations. On the 1st of November
the Italian legion departed and Saturday. the Sd
the day on which Kossuth; and the Hungarian le-
gion left. 1t was great day. The people gathered
from lquarters and expressed deep regret that the
Hungarian chief was about to depart. After several
speeches had been made, cheers given, and prayers
offered for their safety the grand cavalcade started
The Turks provided an escort Of four hundred cav
airy. Kossuth headed the column, and Count CAST
mir Batthyani was at his side. As they left Widdn
one tremendous shout was heard. In the villages,
route, the people refused all compensation for their
hospitality to the great hero and his followers.

ANOTHER CASE OF ROBBERY.

twill be seen by an article from the Boston Post
on our first page. that negro woman has been stolen
from gentleman in Wilmington in this State, and
carried to Boston. The vessel in which she was
taken away, says the Commercial, is the barque
ly adds:
- sThis is another instance to add to the many we
have lately suffered, of the robbery of people of
their property, in violation of laws-and Of the
sanction that attends these transactions in the free
States, in violation of the Constitution
The Commercial is of the opinion that the chief
mate of the vessel is to bame but the Captain.
The Captain is regarded as the sole and real crim-
nal and it is stated that he must at least have been
cognizant of her concealment, Mr.. Lorng concludes
his notice of this hgh-kanded outrage as follows:
''These transactions, now so common, and the pla-
cdity of some and the avowed qualification of others
of our northern fellow citizens their successful
issue, is deepening the feeling of discomfort here and
fritterng away southern desire for the continuance
of the Union. The public cannot and ought not to
look with Indifference upon the robbery of their
friends and ne;ghbors, by set of men deestable
any other robbers whatever-and who, with their
the double crime of theft and treachery-the class
abuses southern hospitality, by acts of perfdy in
midst-whe the other strikes, from more distant
point, at our social comfort and public rights.
We assure Northern friends that the senti-
ment at the South is assuming sterner character
than heretofore indignation, mingled ~ deep re-
gret, at the great injustice sanctioned by the free
ly guessed at abroad. Unless there is yeform, and
that speedily. there will be found impfense major

SHADOWS OF BosroN LIFE. A man was arrested
in Boston few days ago for stealing wood. He had
awe and four children in the extreme of desttution,
stick of wood morsel of food in the house,
and shoes the childrens feet. The prosecution
was abandoned, and sum of money raised to supply
their present necessities. This is one Of the
miseres ofA great city. Erehange paper.
We publish the above with the view of observing
that among all the two hundred and seventy-fve
thousand slaves in North Carolina we do not believe
there is in deplorable condition as this poor
Boston man and his starving wife and children. On
the contrary, slaves we'll fed and well clothed
and, as general rule, by no means overworked. In
health they cared for and watched over, both
human beings and property; and in sickness they
are provided with Physicians to comfort and restore
them. They see less trouble incur less responsible
ty, and enjoy more happiness than the whites. To
them, at least Slavery is positive blessing posi-
tive good. And yet Boston eyes are overaowing with
tears for the wrongs and the suferngs of the poor
slave; and when some fool of servant, deceived by
fair words and false promises is lured from his mas
ter here to the free States he is toasted and easted
and his lies in relation to Southern institutions and
Southern Slavery, are first fattered ont of him and
then believed! Well might the people of the South
turn with whitening emphasis upon these hypocrtes
and robbers and say:
"Woe unto you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites
for ye pay 1.-THE of MINT and annse and cummin, and
