We learn by telegraph that fugitive slave wa.
arrested in Harrisburg, Pa, under the Fugitive
Slave bill, and delivered up TO the owner. The
proceedings were marked with the same order and
.sistness which characterized the frs, case in New
York afsw days since.
We regret to learn that Carbondale, Pa, ha.
been visited by confsgrstion which caused
ssEruction of property to the amount of one hun
drod thousand dollars.
Fhe National Wing ConventiOn-The Abo-
Dtion Platform.
We are enabled TO place before our readers, to-
day, the address and resolutions prepared by the
national wing delegates, who, headed by the Hon.
william Dusr and the Hon. Francis Granger, came
out from among the abolitionsts and socialists OF
the Syracuse Abolition Convention, and org anized
anew in Rus.'s Hotel. The address is extremely
well written, and should be attentively read by
every wing in this, snd all the Northern States
II shows, most conciusvely, that il was incum-
bent On the national whg delegates 10 secede from
the Syracuse Convention and that, If they had
act relieved their party from the stigma which the
sbolitionsts and socialists underworld to fix on it,
the wings in this State, as party, would have
host all their nationality, and been reduced mere
anti slavery faction. The wings ofthe Empire city
are not prepared for such a meianorpkosis they
are not willing to bow the knee to the genius OF
destruction, nor to he led like sheep TO the slaugh-
Ter, by such disorganizing faconists and socialists
rs Seward, Weed, and Greeley. For years past
those demagogues have been endeavcrng to make
the whg party their private property, aud to WELD
IL and mould II 10 suit their own purposes Their
attempts, heretofore, have been covert and under
hand but at the Syracuse Convention, they came
out openly and boldly, and presented to the wings
Of New York the platform Of Seward and aboli-
tionism, and endeavored to make them swallow it,
nOlsa, poleas The attempt was unsuccessful, and
the result was, hn all the national wing delegates
bOl,ed, and have called National Wing Csnven-
ton at Utica, on the nth of October, inst.
The proceedings Of the late convention were not
saly insulting TO the wings Of New York-to their
intelligence and their patriotism-bu they reflected
IN a marked and dsstsrdly manner on the patriots
Henry Clay and Daniel Webster, for the magnani-
nous and patriotic course which those distinguish
ed men pursued in the Senate, In bringing about
settlement Of the slavery agitation. BY the reso-
Iutons, the convention sPplsuded the Of the
densgogue. Seward, thereby condenning that Of
Clay and Webster. Are the wings Of New York
10 abandon such illustrous men, and accept Seward
kinselfi IL this the reward which those distin-
ssished Statesmen are to get for their noble pat
Kiotism We shall zee. Are the wings prepared to
wage wa of aggression on the Southern States,
by interfering with institutions the existence Of
which is guaranteed by the constitution Are
they prepared, at the bidding Of VIM. II. Seward,
sre-open the slavery agitation. which, through the
kuaf ofaltf of Ca,
Foote, and other choice and noble spirits, was
settled in a manner satisfactory to all sections OF
abe country We shall see.
II is very evident that there must be another con-
yenten, and nav set Of nominations. The nomi-
nees Of the Syracuse convention are, as whole,
,olersbiy good candidates but they cannot be sup.
ported BY the national Of this State on accoun,
Of their having bean nominated by a convention
that sought to destroy the nationality Of the party
and 10 change Il into an abolition faction for thei
private purpoeee The late convention, their nomi-
naoaf, their resolutions, and everything else con-
necied with IL, must be distinctly and unequivocal
" repsdisted by the conservative and national
wings Of New York. twill be an easy matter to
rrnominsie such Of the candidates 90 will decline
90 sseept the nominations rendered to them, or 90
many Of them as will distinctly refuse to sanction

and everything connected VITA il, must be distinctly
Tepusisied.
