The Fugitive Slave Rescue.

FIFTH ARREST FOR AIDING IN THE ESCAPE OF
THE FUGITIVE SHADRAcK-Joseph X. Haycs, Su-
perintendent of fremont Temple, arrested this
forenoon and brought into the United States court
room, during the examination of MIR. Davis, upon
charge of aiding and assisting in the escape and
rescue of the fugitive Shadrack, on Saturday last
Mr.. Hayes was placed at tho bar in charge Of spe-
cial officers ID. Cloutman and w. Griffith
MIR. Commissioner Hallett read the complaint
(made by Mr.. Lunt) to the prisoner, to which he
pleaded not guilty.
c. List, esq, appeared as counsel for the pri-
soner.
The prisoner was then ordered to recognise with
sufficient surety in the sum of 1000 for his APP
for examination. William II. Davis became surety
in the required amount, and the prisoner was re-
leased from custody.
A Sixth ARREsT.--Deputy U. s. Marshal John
ii. Riley, assisted by officer Sawin and several
others, arrested colored man named Alexander
b. Burton, and charging him with participating
in the riot ON Saturday last. The prisoner is a
barber by proleseion, and at work in chop
near the railroad depot in Salem
When he was first arrested, the cry raised by
his friends that he was "fugitive," and a crowd
OF nearly three thousand persons assembled in the
vicinity of the shop and expressed their determi-
nation TO rescue him from the officers. The mayor
called out the whole police force of the CITY, the
sheriff, and the officers under him. TO quiet any at
tempt that might be made towards a rescue The
prisoner was brought TO this city in the H. O'Clock
train Of cars, and was taken to the United States
district court for examination. Several Salem off
GERS accompanied the United States deputy mar
shall TO this city.-Boston Journal.
1.-THE Boston Post abiding to the person last a r.
rested, says it subsequently satisfactorily as
certained that he was not the person who was in
tended to be charged in the complaint, and Mr.
Lunt, the U. S. district attorney, ordered him I,
be discharged without formal examination

In another column of this mornings paper
will be found letter from GEO. N. SANDERS,
one of the parties interested in the establish
ment of the line of African steamers, addressed
to the editor Of the Southern Press. It Crap
pies directly and successfully with the objec-
tons raised to the project by MIR. FISHER, and
indicates that the author of the enterprise has
mastered it in all its details and aspects. The
more that this subject has been considered and
discussed, the more emphatically it has COM
mended itself to the public favor, till we can
say, with entire confidence, that there is ne
measure which has been before Congress for
many years that has brought with it such a
mass of recommendations from the public and
the press. We understand that it is the in
tention of the Chairman of the Committee on
Naval Affairs to offer the bill establishing this
line as an amendment to the Naval Appropria-
ton bill, with every prospect of success.

The HIGHER Law COMING Dows.--If we were to
state that one of the editors of the newspaper
known by the title of the Commonwealth had sued
US for a libel our readers would suppose were
jestinR. Nevertheless, we must recount what fol-
lows. Mr. Richard Hildretb, who ia understood
to be one Of the conductors of the Commonwealth,
rio, claiming five thousand dollars damages, for
injury dono TO his professional character in the
port Of Eiizur Wright's examination before the
United States Commissioner. II so happened that
Mr. Hildreth who counsel for the defendant,
behaved with much discrcdit to himself on that
casion, and was described in the reporters
minutes. This is a libel for which MIR. Hildreth-
n great liberty man-comes down upon us for dam
ages Such a movement from the purlicus OF the
Commonwealth newspaper, will, we think, DO much
100 ludcrous for the gravity Of the public.

"The Presidents message, at the opening of the
present session of Congress, expresses fully and
plainly his own and the unanimous opinion of all
those associated with him in the Executive admin
istration of the Government, in regard to what
are called the Adjustment or Compromise mea-

measures should be regarded in principle az

subjects which they embrace; that though they
were not free from imperfections, yet, in their
mutual dependence and connection, they formed

and best for the entire country that could be OBJ

opinions, and that therefore they should be ad-
hered to, until time and experience should de-
monstrate the necessity Of further legislation to
guard against evasion or abuse. That opinion, 80
far as know, remains entirely unchanged, and
will be acted upon steadily and decisvely. The

TuRNEY on the other. Unless we misunder-
stand the position of the honorable Senator from
Virginia, he believes that the Fugitive Slave
States, because it is repugnant to the senti-
menls Of the northern people.
At the same time, he avows that if the law
is not executed, the failure will be sufficient
cause for dissolving the Union. But Mr.. Ma
SON is the author of the law. 1t follows then
that Mr.. Mason advocated the passage Of the
law with the belief that the catastrophe would
follow which he does not pretend to deprecate.
Worse than this, by his very Vaccinations, he
seeks to bring about the state Of feeling at the
South which will receive a partial or tempo
rary failure ofhe law as equivalent to its entire
and absolute non-execution. TIE distinguish
between effort of this kind and reasonable
purpose Of Dsunion, requires nicer faculties of
discrimination than zoe possess.
But it is not Mr.. Mason alone who believes
that this law cannot be executed. Mr. JEFFER-
SON DAVIS agrees with him in the opinions and
Mr.. BoRLAND and Mr.. TURNEY swell the cho-
rus of Disunion with their feeble and discordant
voices. In the case Of the gentleman last men,
toned. the 'tvenom of the shaft does not com
pensate for the lack Of "vigor in the bows" and it
is only because they add numbers to the ranks
of conspiracy, that they extort the compliment
of notice. These gentlemen, in the debate,
conceded, in their action and language, with
Mr.. CHASE. They all agreed in assailing Mr..
CLAY as an agitator They all agreed in de-
nouncing the Compromise, not only on its
original merits, but on the ground that it had
failed to produce the repose and quiet that
were expected to flow from it. They all agreed
that the Fugitive Slave law had proved and
would prove of but little practical value, whe-
Their it were executed or not. They all, in short,
breathed the spirit Of disloyalty and Disunion,
not to say of conspiracy and treason.
1t was with sincere pleasure, therefore, that
we listened to Mr.. DoDGE, and Mr.. DOUGLAS,
and to General CAss, in their replies to the
men who pursue measures and avow princi-
pies that will render Disunion inevitable, and
to those who by their prophecies and denuncia-
tions are aiding them in their unholy purpose.
1t was not merely that they abandoned their
political prejudices to do justice to the Pre-
sIDENT that we heard them with satisfaction,
but chiefly because they gave warning to the
coalition of extremists-.o the Abolitionists and
Secessionists conspirators and Disunionists
of all quarters and all compilations, that no
party associations and no party antipathies will
prevent them from rallying to the support Of
the Administration in matter that involves
the supremacy of the laws and the perpetuity
OF the Union.

On Saturday last, Sefor Don JOSE DE MAR
coLErA was presented to the PsEsIDENr by
the SECRETARY OF STATE, an1 delivered his
credentials as Envoy Extraordiesry and Min
lister Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Nicara-
qua to this Government Mr.. MARcoLErA
made the following remarks upon the occasion:
Mr. PRESIDENT: have the honor of placing in
the hands of your excellency the credentials ac-
crediting me En-, oy Extraordinary and Minis
ter Plenipotentiary Of the Republic of Nicaragua
near the Government of the United States of
America Having been directed by my Govern
ment to express the strongest sentiments of friend
ship and good will for the Government Of the Uni
ted States of the North and for its ustrous chief
consider myself fortunate, Mr. President, in hav-
ing had the honor of being selected to be the faith
ful interpreter of those sentiments. The Republic
of Nicaragua is fully persuaded that these senti-
ments are reciprocnted, and that they will ever
continue to be, in oil cases. and under all crcum-
stances, between the two countries She desires to
live in peace and harmony with all nations, in
order to facilitate the interchange and deveope-
ment of friendly offices; but, above all she is anx-
ious to draw those relations as close as possible
with the Government of the American Union.
May also be permitted, Mr.. President, to ex-
press to your excellency, and to the country over
which you preside, the most sincere thanks, to-
gcher with the liveiest of gratitude for the
evidences of generous friendship which the govern
ment of the republic has been pleased to give to
Nicaragua, for which every citizen preserves, and
will ever continue to cherish in his heart, the strong
est and most sympathetic gratitude.
To which the PRESIDENT made the following
reply:
Mr.. MINISTER: We are very happy to receive
you the representative of the Government of
Nicaragua. You have been expected for some
| time, and latterly with some impotence, and we
have signifed to your Government our regret that
| any causes should have occurred to delay you.
Interests are springing up ut the present moment
in Central America of now and high character,
which concern this country well ~ other COM
mercial States. and which will necessarily render
the connection and intercourse between Nicaragua
and the United States more important than 1t has
heretofore been. The Government and the people
of this country desire to perpetuate peace and good
will between the two Republics, and doubt not
that the relations between them may be conducted
in such manner AZ to accomplish these objects,
and at the same time essentially advance the inter-
ests of the two countries.
