THE REPORT or TIE SUPERINTENDENT OF Conf

Mornings pepper, the repor, of the Superintendent
Of Common Schools OF the state of New York, for
the year ls49. II is an exceedingly interesting
document, and is verify of careful perusal by all
who take an interest in the education OF the rising
generation
by this report, we learn that the total expend-
ture for school purposes, during the year ls49 was
the sum Of 81, 766,6Ss 81 The capital Of the school
fund was increased during the year n the sum Of
az, 100 ST. The whole number of volumes in
district Libraries Is 40 $50. There is a variety
Of other statistics the report, connected with the
subject Of common schools, which are very inte-
resting

thoroughly established, it should be revised and

to the utmost to proract the settlement OF the sla
very question, and to oppose the passage OF the COM
promise bils-the one as a member OF General
TayIors cabinet, and the other in his seat in the
United States Senate. The public will not soon
forget their policy at critical time, and until there
are signs of their sincere repentance they will have
nothing TO do with them.
So much for the two regular parties, and now for
the irrspulars The abolitonists will, as usual,
hold a national convention, and nominate a candi-
date of their own The order to do 30 has been
issued by Gerrit Smith. |. is possible the South
ern utras will nominate candidate, but il 10 not
probable Notwithstanding the position of Gov
sruor Quitmsn and the Legislature of Mississippi
there is good for believing the people of that
State, like those of Georgia, are satisfied with the
compromise measures, and will not join in any
scheme of secession or disuAion as long as the
fugitive slave law adhered to-not that they have
any interest 10 the carrying out of the measures
for the escape of slaves from their being very rare
but they look upon its fulhlment by the North, as
pledge that their rights will not be nfringed upon
South Carolina, therefore, is the only State in the
Union in favor Of secession. She will retain the
position which she has always held.
Conspicuous among the statesmen who are
thought of candidates stands, tall and erect, the
Hon. Henry Clay-a man whose patriotism is of
the highest order, and whose integrity is above
suspicion To him the republic owes debt of
gratitude which it can never discharge. The bene-
fits which he has conferred upon it are above pnce,
and Office in the gift of the people could elevate
him one inch. Yet il would be desirable to make
him President He has grown gray in the service
of his country, and in the ordinary of nature
cannot survive many yeafs more. What pleasing
spectacle il would be to see great nation like this
evincing its gratitude to one of its patriots, by
elecung him. in he decline of his life, to the high
est office in lis gift. II is possible to do so. Party
asperi.y, which, former occasions prevented his
election, has, in a great measure, subsidized; and
were he nominated again, We are satisfied that
thousands of men, who hated his very name years
ago, would vote for him with alacrity. 1t is not
improba bic that Henry Clay will be the next Pres-
dent of the United States.

SNEAKINe ATTEMPT TO NULLIFY THE FUeIrrvE
SLAVE LAw.-The bill introduced into The Assem-
bly, of this State or Friday asst is nothing but
sneaking atte mp to evade, if not TO nufy, the Fu
gitive Slave law passed duriny the last session of
Congress. ctpy o. il will be ourd n our CO
lumns to-day. Il provides y at any person who
shall arrest, or attempt 10 arrest, free citizen of
this Safe, shall be dee ed 9uity of kidnapping,
and on convection sha be i prisoned for a term
not exceeding ten years; that any person who
shall have openly and publicly resided In the State
for one year shall be deemed tree citizen of this
State until the contrary is proved; that on the trial
of any Indictment found nder the act, no warrant
process, certificate issued by any officer
and no expartc affidavit, deposition or record shall
be admitted as evidence to establish the right to
arrest, or TO prove hit such person was not free
citizen of this State within the meaning OF the act
The last section provides that the proposed bill
shall not refer to persons charged with ison, fe
lohy or elher crime, or 10 persons employed in the
army or navy of the United States.
The purport Of this bill is plain, although there
is an attempt made to disguise its meaning. 1t is
a sneaking, unde.nand, and C, ntempube effort to
nuIlfy the Fugitive Slave law. If sucn an act
were passed, 1t would be of no avail. Every
officer and Judge in the State, who took an oath.
on entering upon his duties, to obey the constitu-
ton of the Unit States, would be bound to dis
obey it, unless he believed in the higher law doc
trine End then he would be guilty of perjury. In
addition this. the Supreme Court of tho United
States would decide at once that il was unconsti-
tutional The demagogue who introduced it knew
this as well as do. But what does be care,
provided he can make little capital from il 7 We
have but one word 10 say in reference this mat
ter. If this law should be by any chance passed,
and be upheld by force, the State of New York
viii be out Of the Union. We may talk as much
az We like about South Carolina secession; but if
the Legislature of this State pass this bill, it will
be practical secession, for it will be violating the
constitution and the laws passed under it.

The Tariff and Slavery.

None but the wilfully blind can have fail
ed 10 learn, that while the slave power has
repeatedly procured submission to its de-
mands by the promise of tariff, it has al
ways, in the end, cheated its deiuded dupes
of tie promised equivalent. The same game
is now playing. Northern Wing papers
urge upon the advocates of protection, that
the only hope Of protection is from Southern
Wing votes, and that these can never he had
while the North continues the agitation of
the slavery question. But we do not rccol-
lect ever TO have seen the alternative so dis
tinctly pre-, entcd, the threat so shamelessly,
SO UNANIMOUSLY made ms in the following pa
ragraph from the New York Express, short
ly after the Pennsylvania election. We have
itulclscd some portions;
awe observe that some ofour Wing friends
in Pennsylvania, now, after this defeat, ut.
terly despair OF any change in the Tariff
which will promote their interests. This
defeat brings no disaster to the Protective
Tariff interest; for the Northern Wings
must have the votes of Southern Wings ia
better the Tariff, and these they never can
have until Northern Wings are willing to
giUe as iceH as demand protection. Kentucky,
North Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia, Tonnes-
see, Missouri and Virginia, which arc to give
us Protective Tariff votes, are Just ms much
Interested il uny he wrongiully, but never
! iheless Just MS much interested, in having
their siGve property protected by The Federal
Constitution and The Federal Government MS
Pennsylvania is in her coal and iron. To
have protection for herself Pennsylvania
must show disposition TO give protection
to her sister States. Protection, we repeat,
rs a mutuality-a reciprocity-Gnd The South
hare their olCn great interests 10 protect as nell
as The North"
| Now we ask the advocates of protection il
they are ready TO come 10 this? Arc they
ready to protect "slave properly" as the price
OF protection TO iron and coal. cotton and
woolen goods? Arc they willing, by the
clearest violation of the Constitution, 10 say
nothing of the inexpediency and wickedness
Of The policy, to pledge the protection of the
Federal Government TO slave property, even
II thus they are sure of shelter tariff"
We will not believe that the sincere anti
slavery Wings of hlnssachusetts-and there
are thousands of such, we doubt not, still
connected with the Wing purty-nre ready
TO sell their birth-right for this miserable
mess Of potlage. To such we appeal. Re-

dares not protect his rights. The pnrty who

he has witnessed the rescue of Shadrach in

the fierce excitement caused by them, have

the Slave Power, will never stand up brave
" and successfully for Northern interests.
A few months ogo, protection was the
most prominent Of the cardinal articles of
the Wing creed. Now, the leading Whig
papers declnre-you need expect no tariff
you eau have none unless you sanction the
compromise measures. Those same papers
recommend the Withdrawal of the protec-
ton OF salt TO punish the Syracusnns for the
rescue of the slave, jerry. And this. all

Yours, for the Right,
T.. WARNER.
Cherry Valley, Nov. 10th, 1851

O. There is one view Of this subject,
which we wish merely TO suggest. Mr.
Walker, is an earnest, impassioned friend of
freedom, is constantly in contact with the
worst dcvelopemenis of pro-sIavery false
hood aud meanness. lie sees men con,in-
ually resor,ing TO every species of misrepre-
sentaiion, slander, aud personal abuse, to
screen themselves from guilt, and justify
their support of slavery. lie must, there
fore find occasions for denunciation and Sc
verify ofrcprooG, which the quiet homc-stay
ing abolitiorist knows nothing of
We say this not particularly in justifca-
ton of Mr.. Walker, in this instance, for we
know nothing of the facts, except what have
been spread before our readers. But we
speak of the position occupied by Mr.. w. in
common with all prominent abolitOnists.--
We believe they nre often condemned by
those, who, could they decide from the posi-
ton occupied hy those they condemn, would
give them their entire Justification. But
they are hastily aud unjuslly censured-their
motives and conduct Inexperienced, aud
unnpprcciaied, because ofinperiect acquaint-
ence with the facts on which the decision
is given.
We cannot agree with our correspondent
in supposing that to avoid the cplhets he
specifies, and other kindred ones, would be
always TO strengthen our cause. Though
we confess we sometimes hear them used in
manner not at all TO our taste, or in ac-
cordencc with our judgment. But if man
does tell a lie, aud especially if lie tells it TO
sustain slavery or its aids and abettors, the
popular church and government, we know
no better way then TO characterize it by the
use orgoo4 strong unmisiakaJie English. To
decline so doing, would be, not to disnrm our
opponents, but ourselves.-ED.
