10 whom have spoken declined on the ground that they
would have nothing do with matter because ogna
ted in Boston and doubt you will find that your
,crprisc will be in bad odor generally at The South"
Forcbly does the Editor Of the Transcript demand, il
Northern Art is thus under ban at the South what must be
the fuct in regard Northern trade and manufactures And
thus scnsby and paoticaly does the writer proceed
"If Boston had been engaged in the vindicaton Of uny
high principc-in resisting arbitrary ay in carrying
out instead Of violating an unpopular awand for this she
had been called upon suffer her pccuuary interests she
would have had The consciousness of right 10 sustain hcr
and we believe there Is community which would,
readily than Boston, brave any sacrifice under such
seriousness But crcumvent and defeat the execution Of
law, which must be carried OUT government be dissolved
of suicidal folly for which the business of
Boston responsible although they may be made the
sufferers. Nothing has been gained. No high principle has
been indicated upheld. Prescription bitterness and mis-
chief have been the only fruits"
"ncaculable injury has undoubtedly been done, with
good result present prospective But have fear
that the ancpatons OF our New York contemporaries
will be realized In the tme let every friend Of the
Union, whether North South labor 10 do away with
every remaining for e1aspeatlon discomfort and
alatory If will but faithfully observe duties,
under constitution and the laws peace and friendship
may yet be restored.
at is greatly be regretted under the circumstances al
uded to above, that Mr. Webster could not have had hear
ing Faneuil Hall. His remarks, carried as they would
have been lightning wings the length and breadth of
the country, would have had tranqui!zing and beneicen
effect ut this linIe.'
We certainly are not Of those Of the Editors New York
contemporaries" f indeed there be any auch who have
any eager ancpaons q! lasting injury Boston, The
consequence of agta,ons there. On the contrary
no has felt lvee emotions Of JOY. in view of the irm
dcterminncd and successful manner In which the Cons-
tuition and Law sustained BY the people of tina,
ancient and noble city upon the late exciting OCCASION Hac
Firtu.c!
In the course OF the article from which have been so
literally quoting, find tho following paragraph, which
fairly claims from US, perhaps passing notice:
1.-THE South is not dS:egardful q. the signs OF
the times in the great State New York. The South will
remark that the height Of the excitement here in regard
Sims letter from Senator Seward Ike bomb shell
into the Union camp The South will also remark, that ii
the Boston Board oil Aldermen have refused Faneuil Hall 10
Mr. Webster the New York Legislature have Hceatvcd
proposition for him 10 address that body"
Let friends OF the trmoRtanc city with the good
work they have begun in discolntenancng the runous
movements Of the agator and in due process OF time
will endeavo make good report OF the estimation In
which their coadutors are held in the Empire State.
