lican, to see now warmly their efforts, and theil
services, are appreciated by the head and front
of the Abolition crusade.
We find the following conspicuo usly inserted
under he editorial head, in the New York Tri-
bune:
Ex.SrEAKER CoBB ON THE UNroS--The Sa
vannah Reput ican brings us a brief report OF a
speech made in that city on the l4fh inst by
Hon. Howell Cobb, Speaker OF the last Congress
in support of the Union and in opposition to the
| schemes Of the Southern secessOnsts. Mr.
| Cobb is a man Of wide Influence in his State
and his speech evidently gave the fullest salts
faction to his friends. The audience, says the
Republican, embraced more intelligence, more
men of character and influence, than usually at
tend political gatherings Mr.. Cobb's main OBJ
ect was to vindicate the compromise measures
of the last Congress against the assaults of TIE
South Carolina hotspurs, and TO inspire deeper
love of the U"ion az the source OF priceless bless.
pgs to the South "a well IA the North. South
Carolina, he said had no right to leopard the in
sttutions of The South by her harty el-ndvised
action. Other States were equally interested II
those institutions, and abe could not in justice
to them take il upon herself to decide upon such
momen.ous issues and drag them down with
herself into the bottomless pit OF revolution
and dsunion. For one, he no bed that Georgis

sH" We have received, in the Argus, full
report of the speech pronounced by Mr. WEB
sTER at Albany. 1t does not strike us as equal
in ability, or in scope, to his Buffalo exposition.
The matters briefly dwelt upon are the Fugitive
slave law and remarks on its constitutionality
citing Judge WOODBURY., and other eminent legal
authorities, to prove it. He reterates upon
his professional reputation, the assertion that the
resolves Of conventions that the law shall not
be executed, are distinctly reasonable"
OF course, he ended by eulogzing WASHING
TON highly-but the young men of Buffalo, pre-
sent and perspective, yet more deliberately, in
the body OF his speech. In fact, Mr.. WEBSTER
seemed as bent on tickling the boys, as one o.
his rivals usually seems on kissing the girls; fol
we learn, that at the supper which followed the
speech, Mr. WEBSTER responded to a sentiment
in his happiest manner, and concluded with the
following
"The young men of Albany-the young men
of this generation and of the succeeding gene
ratons-May they live foreper, but may the Con
stitution of the Union outline them ALL"
In this sentiment Mr.. WEBSTER not only
surpasses the oriental amplitude Of compliment
but perpetrates "a BUR- worthy Of Sir Boyle
ROCHE, Of laundering renown.
Can any admirer of the "great expounder'
explain how the Constitution of the Union car
outline" the young men of Albany, should they
:" live forever"

"UNIoS.--The Charleston Evening News has

think that the politicians have gone just far

be put in jeopardy to crafty the ambition OF po-
litical leaders"

Another Compromise Proposed.

From the annexed statement in the New
York Commercial Advertiser, it will be seen that
aCompromise has been suggested by the bench,
as the proper mode of settling the dispute be-
tween the two branches of the Methodist church.
Thus it seems that justice is to be "compro-
Of legislation.
If there is an adjustment" we presume it will
be on the usual terms, the North taking the oys-
ter, the South the shell. Observe how Peck
sniff-ian is the tone of this advocate Of the
free-soil governor Of New York

and mayor of that city.
This Mr.. LANGDoN is a specimen of those

means superior specimen of that class
He is therefore fit representative of South

exotic editors and politicians such as he is-and
it is natural that such presses MS the Republic
and the New York Tribune, should exult over
his nomination. Even the submission men
however, swallowed him with wry face; and
he barely received the nomination by plurality
of three
Seven votes were cast for him, and four for a
gentleman who did not desire to be candidate.
Those who supported the latter finally refused
that the nomination should go forth as " unani.
NOUS" as the friends Of Mr. LAKGDoN desired
for effect. This pro lorna proceeding is very
seldom objected to on such occasions, and
shows the intensity OF the opposition.

IToRRTp DEATH-Lemuel Woodward. a
farmer of Painfeld, Con-, and worth half
million dollars, came to his end on Sunday
morning last, while sailing some young cattle
upon one of his farms, as is the New England
custom. He was probably killed by two ear
cid heifer, giving him fatal wound in the breast
and another in the groin, as her horns were
found bloody. After the attack he appears to
have climbed upon rock for protection, but
fell of from weakness, or was pushed off by the
heifer. Thus his son-in-law, Mr. Gallup, found
him; but while he went for assistance, the other
cattle, having scented the blood, gathered about
the corpse, tramped it into the earth and tossed
and gored it until recognition was scarcely pos
sible. It is difficult to imagine what could have
caused the attack on the part of the heifer.-

A New CLAIM AGAINST MExrco.-Some time
since we saw it stated that the Mexican minis
ter, at Washington city, had made formal
demand for sum of about $4,000, being the
amount by which the sum appropriated to
claimants for Mexican spoliatons exceeds the
sum found due by the late commission. We
find in the San Francisco papers a heavy de-
maod, which California makes against the gov
eminent of Mexico, which will absorb thirty

that the case is presented to tn, State legisa-

than hundred years ago, large amount Of pro-
