~ what is obvious to everybody less " patriotic
than they profess to be-but they want faith
nevertheless.
The PeansyJcsnion affords notable instance
Of this, in tho extract sujoped. 1t actually is
astonished that Mr.. CRADLES, one Of its repre-
sentatiyes in Congress, should have voted with
Mr.. JULIAN the other day, substantially for the
repeal Of the Fugitive slave bill, after figuring
conspie uously az Vice President Of the GREAT
UNION MEETING in Philadelphia! and actually
6nds fault with him for it-and charges him
with " misrepresenting' the sentiment Of Phila-
delphia.
This is very ungrateful in the Pennsy lranian
for did not Mr. CHANDLER kindly aid in setting
that gull trap, and may not nine out Of ten Of
Mr. C-'s constituents take his view of the re-
spective rights of the North and the South-for
the FIRST acts---for the last wordss Very few
people at the South will share in the Amusement
Of the Pennsyloanian--bu the want Of faith in
such good Union man as the Vice President Of
The Philadelphia Union Meeting, shows sec

how it talks:
The FucirivE SLAVE BILL IN THE HOUSE,
On Monday last, the following proceedings took
place in the House OF Representatives at WASH
ington. We read the vote Of Mr. Chandler, the
member from this district, with pain and amaze
ment. He served as vice president of the great
Uuion meeting recently held here. where the

expression on the proprety Of carrying out the
law which he now seeks to strike down. The
sentiment Of Rve out of every six--of nine out Of
every ten-of his constituents is against his yote
and he ought to know and TO respect it. The
record shows that every Democrat in this State
voted so on the motion of Mr.. Julian; but Mr.
Chandler took his place among the Moores, the
Stevenses, the Giddingses, the Julians, the Roots
and the Wilmots, and thus deliberately misrepre-
sented his district. This city, which he mainly
represents, IL the commercial metropolis Of the
State, and his vote is given at time when
men Of all parties here are facilitating themselves
upon the good feeling existing towards Philadel-
phia in the South.
Now this vote, every body knows was by no
means test question and therefore, ought not
to be so regarded--but it shows the Punic faith
of these Unionists per Sc. The same print, how
ever, seems to think that remote Free-soiler,
