Summary OF News by Telegraph, Sc

1t particularly gratifying 20 the lovers Of this
great republic, and those who wish to see the laws
Of the land fully and imrartiahy carried out, TO
learn that nearly al Of those who known 10
have participated in the recent negro riot and muir
der In Pennsylvania, have been indicted for high
treason by the Grand Jury Of the United States
District Court, az Philadelphia This is very
important movement, as II is the first unhincAing
step taken by the high judicial authorities to bring
TO Justice the vile aboitonistg-those base calam-
nators Of the constitution, and reckless opposer Of
the laws But, while the government officers 10
sister State are thus evincing their determine
ton to uphold the principles Of laws, we sin
cercly hope that the officials 10 our own state will
not prove recreant TO their duty by winkny at the
parties who assisted the escape Of the negro at
Syracuse, by breaking the arm Of the Marshal,
violently assaSlting other officers who lad the slave
in custody, and brick. batting ;ae police Office
where he investigation was gong on. We are
pleased 70 observe that measures have been taken
TO bring ,hese Syracuse misereants to jEstice and
although no arrests have yet been made, d. IL hoped
that they wall ne. be long atlarge These violat,rs
Of an enactmen. Of Congress, together with their
various leaders, abettors, and editors throughout
the state, are equally guilty Of high treason as
are the Peaasylyauia negroes and their white coadi
tutors, and should le dealt with in the sane man
ner. "Giving aid AID comfort to the opposers Of
Law; commenting, counseIling, and inst eating
forcible resistance &c the law come under the
head Of high treason; ana therefore contend that
all those abolition editors Throughout the country
who have, time and again, recon mendcd the negroes
20 set AZ naught the laws Of the nation should De
indicted and tried traitors, and Il found
guilty, punish ed as traitors. We perceive
that the Hon. j. q. Palfrey and Joseph
Lyman have Withdrawn from the edit)rship
Of that notorious abolition organ, the Boston
Commonwealth. Perhaps these gentlemen were
aware Of what ght be the result Of their contin.
vance Of their labors in the cause Of the abolition
lists, and thought il prudent to retire. We again
repeat that it Is desirable, for the honor Of the
great DO iy Of the people, tia, e9sctusl check
should be put upon the sediioss proceedings Of
those misguided beings who arrogste TO themselves
the title Of philanthrors:s bat who in reality, are
the enemies Of all that sppertsins to Law, order,
and justice.
