Still DO no, dany, es severe as tie case may
be, THAI the National Legislature has The
power to mvke such Law. The exIraord',
nary exercise Of that power, however, should
lead to a yerJ close aRd cautious exam'na'

be satisfactory, aud should induce The same
.caLe and cauioa in regard 10 the identity oi
tae fugitive before he is demanded.
But the most offensive ieatnre in ills law,
unexplained, is the provision "That ia no
trial or Learing under this acl shall the tesla
mony oflhs alleged fugitive be admitted in
evidence" This, in the way ia which u is
generally understood, shocks every feeling OF
humanity --every principle OF Justice. Il Is
construed TO mean that The fugitive shall not
be allowed to produce any evidence in his
behalf, even as against the &c Pdrte, (so cali
ed y testimony against him. Whereas, II
means NO more, land that is certainly en"nghl
ihau that the alleged slave shall not be re-
| ceiyed as witness in the case. That he
has tho Hght, however, to prove BY others,
n AT he is not the person claimed, no ln'elll
oe II or Just man cun for moment deny.

MAYOR BARKER .

The freaks of this man, elected Mayor o
Pittsburgh by wing votes, is acquiring t"'
him an extensive reputation. We have not
kept our readers posted in the doings of this
maniac, for the reoscn that VIC supposed he
would serve his year ont and then be per-
mi,ted quietly to sink into oblivion, or II re'
membered at all oAIy to illustrate the nnc-
tlon with which whggery seIzes on the most
disgusting iSms to secure success. Bt It
seems His Honor" has no idea Of rrlin-
gushing Office with one term. a meeting oi
his faiends was recently held with view to
his re election, at which he made speech,
an account of which we transcrhe from the
Post" merely remarkng that many more
outrageous sayings and dongs are every day
occurrences with the Mayor of P'tisburg:
"1'nG MEErlNG ON TUESDAY NiGur A
meeting of the friends Of Mayor Bukcr,
was held in the Diamond on Tuesday night.
His Honor was present, and made speech
in his usual style 'and little more so,' lie
raked the Cou cilmen, and denounced Them
as thieves, &c. lie spoke of the inequality
Of taxation, and refer cd TO specic items in
the Fifth Ward. A gentleman who heard
some of his speech, deliberately went to the
Collector yesterday morning, examined the
books, and found that there was not one
work of truth in The statement made by Bar
Rer.
Iii, Honor paid some aitentl' n to the ed'-
tors and reporters of the city. Just I" le,
our readers al d stance know what sort OF
man got 1900 votes at The last m"nIc'pal
election in this city, we will make single
quotation from his speech, substituting John
Doe for real name:
'John Doe. John Doe, John Doe, stand up
here YOU Cd d. son Of n b-------h.
Yon told lies on the Mayor; you are tot'el.
with disease; you stole thousand dollars
ave believe in the lei alone policy in re-
gard 10 this man Barker. We vii! no, de-
nounce him. We give a specimen OF his
language, &C., and leave our citizens To Judge
for themselves. If he is 10 be sustained in
this community, we have the consolation of
knowing that his friends will suffer as much
as his enemies in consequence. Experl-
ence has proved that he does not spare his
friends while administering Justice.

Lime for Apple Trees.

No fac, has been more frequently and salts
(acloriy demonstrated OF late, than that old
lime, Iha, has been used in plaster, is one Of the
mos, energetic and sauIary applications for
apple trees, tha. can be named. Trees that
for years have been nearly or quite barren, and
so overrun with moss and oIher parasireal
plants, as TO induce the belief ,ha. no efforts
for their regeneration could possibly be sue
cessfu, have, by being manured copiousy with
this article, been made TO yield politically and
to resume in few years the appearance and
almost the energy Of youth.
This fac, is worthy The serious consideration
of the farming community. There but few
homesieads around which there may not be
found trees, once healthy and valuable, that
present the symptoms Of approaching if not
present barrenness, and which, consequently,
demand the immediate application to obviare

the surface soil, to the depth Of three OF four

bushels, an immediate effect will be produced
for the better, and the whole system return
