Summary OF the Latest News.
The steam ship Atlantic had not rea shed this port
at two o'clock this rorning, at which hour she had
been cu. from Liverpool thirteen days and eleven
hours. she has probably experienced the same
heavy head winds that the Asia did. Her news
VIII be four days later from all parts of Europe.
With regard to the elections which took place
yesterday in the Ststes Of Pennsylvania and Ohio.
we have but few returns-hardly enough on which
20 venture surmise as to the results. In the for
mer state, Col. Bgler, the democratic candidate
for Governor, appears to have gained on the vote
Of ls4S and sh ould not be the least surprised
ascertain that he has been elected Indeed, from
present indications, we strongly suspect that the
democrats have been successful in both States.
Several persons, we learn, have been arrested by
the United States Marshal in Madison county, in
,his state for assisting participating in the res
cue of the fugitive slave Jerry, in Syracuse, short
time since and i. is TO be hoped, if their guilt be
established after a fair and impartial trial. they
viii be made to suffer the rigor Of the law which
they 3isobeyed The abolitioEists OF tia. hot-bed
ef fanaticism openly derided Mr. Webster for as
ser,ing that the Fugitive Slave law would be en-
forced even there. He was disappointed in this in
staEee, for no doubt he did not for a mo nent Ell
ter,ain the idea that the inhabitants Of that
part O. the country could be SO far guilty Of
moral perjury and so false to their duty
20 he laws, legally enacted, and TO the
constitution Of the country, under which they
framed, as TO aid in the rescue Of prisoner from
the custody Of the officers Of the law. Mr.. Web
ster il seems was mistaken, and the atolitionists
were right. We shall, however, now see whether
those who committed tie crime will escape the
punish nent which they have incurred. II an i'm
partial trial cannot be had in Onondaga county,
we presume it will no. be difficult matter to pro-
cure change Of venue, and bring the prisoners
into some other county, the Inhabitants of which
have 10; been bereft Of their senses, or have no:
cast of their allegiance TO the laws aad TO the 90
vernment.
The democrats and free soile-s OF Massachusetts,
held convention al Dedham, at which some very
ex.rSofdinary proceedings occurred The old line
democrats drew up and adopted, among then
selves, resolutions approving Of the compromise
Of Congress, and declar ring it violation
az the constitution TO interfere with the Fugitive
Slave law. This movement, Of course, aroused the
indignation CT the abolition portion of the conveu-
tor. and Teg ular ruInpus ensued between the two
parties. The national democrats say that they will
never .calesce with the free soilers Let them
stick 20 this determination, and they will reap
great honor, though they should receive no imme-
date Irofts.

We have received late and important news from
Mexico By il we learn that the revolution In the
northern departments is proceeding spa;e, tha.
the insurgents have met with further successes
without meeting with any opposition from the 20
yerrment. Il is not probable that much opposition
can te made 20 the insurgents, FOR the government
Of Mexi.o is weak and bankrupt. Il is not impro-
bable tha. this is the commencement q a move
ment that will strike out, sooner or later, Mexico
from the LET Of nations Il is certain that unless
