From the Mount Sterling (Reniuckv) Tvniy.

We are glad TO find, (says the New York Journal
Of Commerce of the 25th instantly that in our re-
marks yesterday, we misapprehended the design of
the last resolution reported by the majority OF the
Select Committee Of the New York Assembly on
the subject of slavery 1t does not instruct our Sen
ators and request Representatives to en- dcavor
to procure the abolition OF slavery in the District of
Columbia, but of the slave trade. To this we hive
no objection--ony we think the time even for this
act of egislaton Is badly chosen There is need of
forbearance on all sides, until the wounds caused
by past violence shall have opportunity TO heal II
the public mind at the South were not chafed and
soured, many Of their Representatives, we have no
doubt, would vote for the abolition of the slave trade
in the District.
BY our Geographic report of proceedings yes
terday 1t will be seen that this subject occupied the
attention of the New York Assembly most of the
day. Mr.. Waters and Mr.. varnum Wings. from
this city, spoke in decided terms against the Senate
resolutions, and in favor Of Cancellation. Mr. Ford,
Democrat, of Erie county, Chairman of the Assem-
bly, Committee who reported the comparatively
moderate and conciatory resolutions above men
TONED, read speech in support of them though
he said, for his own part, he would have preferred
TO take no action on the subject. These deinonsra.
tons from influential members on both sides of the
House induce TO believe that the Senate resolu.
tons cannot pass that body. The spell appears 10
be broken which has befooled politicians and
brought the country TO crisis of real danger from
which u will require all the wisdom Of the wise 10

NEw MOVEMENT THE BITTER ENpEns-
Senator Bradbury, Of Maine, a member of the
Btter-E End opposition has offered resolution sthat
the President be requested 10 be laid before
the Senate all the charges which have been pre-.
ferred or filed in any OF the departments against
individuals who have been removed from Office
since the 4th Of March last, with a specification Of
the cases If any, in which the officers charged have
had opportunity 20 be heard, and statement Of the
number of removals made under each depa rtinent"
The senate has certainly too much regard for Il.
self 10 adopt this assnne resolution offered by an
extreme partisan with the view of gaining that no.
toriety which is the dearest idol OF some men the
position Of whose minds is fixed good deal farther
below the really aspiring point than above the
mark where the groveiing propensities find their
level. But IL the resolution should be passed. the
President has, we are sure, TO correct a notion OF
his ONCE 10 make any other answer than that the
Senate asks at what IL has no right TO demand
and what he will not communicate. The action of
the first Congress decision Of the Supreme
Court-thc practice Of all the Presidents and peve-
raj votes in the Senate, all agree upon the point
that the power Of removing rests with The Prcsi-
dent and that he is perfectly free TO withhold from
the Senate his reasons for removal or nomination
Such, at least, the Democratic doctrine as fair
ly and fully cxpoundcd by authorized oraclcs not
many years ago; and Il Is but Just that the Demo
