The New York SENATORS AND THE PRESIDENT.
We adverted last week to certain circumstances
nected with the election CT Hamilton Fish to the
United States Senate which were to Southern Wings
of painfully suspicious character. The known fact
of his Intimate connexion with Seward, the accusa
ton of denty of opinion with that aemagogue, and
the color of truth given that charge by Stewards
participation in the eleconeering and wire pulling
necessary to effect his nomination, coupled with the
fact OF Fishs obstinate refusal to give any express
sion Of his opinions, induced irresstbiy SUSPICION,
if it did establish the fact that he is an ally of
that infamous Abotionist, and will lend his aid in
furtherng his detestable schemes. Nor have any
direct and substantial evidence that such conclusion
is not in fact correct. Indeed the only why
do not yield implicit credence to the truth of the
charges made by several New York papers of Mr..
Fishs unsOundness is the fact that the Republic the
organ of the President has, no doubt by authority,
expressed its qualification at Mr.. Mr.. Fishs success.
We are unwilling to believe that the promotion of
Abotionst to the important post of United States
Senator would be cause of qualification to Mr..
Fillmore.
But we have alluded to these facts a second time
for the purpose of noticing them in connection with
late demonstration in New York City. We allude
to the dinner given by the City corporation to the
Legislature when Mr.. Seward and one of his COM
peers made speeches of peculiar significance. This
latter abolitionist sprout concluded his harangue
thus.
Dissolve the Union! Why, sir, the men yet
live among u.s. who have seen few feeble colonies,
scattered along the Atlantic coast, inhabited by less
than three millions of people, expand into thirty-one
Independent States. And sir the grandsons of these
aged men will live this confederacy grow
under our glorious Constitution till its population out
runs the march of enumeration, till its territory
washed by oceans, reaches from the arctic
of Labrador to the tropc heat of Panama, and till
the sun, he this wide domain. neither rises
upon master SETS upon a siaue. ILong contin-
ued appIause.l / conclude by proposing to yoS the
immortal sentiments of Daniel Webster:
Liberty and Union and forever one and INSOFAR
able"
And Seward while responding to toast compl-
mentary the President, took occasion to laud him
in that shows that the existing feud between
them is forgotten and their former personal and pot
ical relations restored Now it is matter of some
importance the Southern people to know whether
MI Seward is to have any influence upon the deber-
atoms of the Cabinet, the mind of the President.
Upon this question there should be no temPorzing
policy, federation of the Abotionist, no political
consort with him, or fawning upon him. His coun-
sells and himself should be rejected with scorn and de-
teston. His grandiloquent laudatioL of the Union
will be received and understood by all true Union
men in its proper light Weknow that he clngs TO il
because he believes that his vile aspirations and
desires be gratifed by its preservation,
and that its destruction would, in his opinion be the
deahblow of the scheme, the consummatian Of which
he so devorty wishes. We repeat that we are very
10th believe that Mr.. Fillmore would lend his per-
sonal influence, and the influence of his position to
the election of any friend, follower ally of Mr.
Seward, and hope that the facts of the present
case when fully ascertained. may justify us in ou
belief .alDemarie Bulletin.
