The assassination of two American cii-
Zcus in Pennsylvania, while IN the exercise
of th lr legal aud constitutional rights, is d-
recily attributable, not to the negro mob, who
resisted the agents of the law, hut 10 the
short-siglted fiid law despising men, whose
milanlmaiOry appeals and reckless counsel
insiigated the blacks to an outrage, irnught
only with ruin aud disaster to .he actors
however securely aloof from molestation
might be the instgators. Two wl,ite men
aud nine negroes have, il appears, been ur-
rested for high treason and, il punishment
is TO he visited on any, we hope the law will
not forget that the aiders and nbctiors of
treason are equally guilty with the active
perpeiraiors.-B Boston Transcript.
The melancholy tragedy at Christiann, in
this State, by which two citizens of Mary
land lost their lives, has established, in letters
of blood, the dangerous character of the
modern aholitionists.
The fugitive slaves in question, when they
fired on the representatives of the law, only
carried out in practice, what the ahoIhiOnisis
constantly assert in principle. For years
past Garrison, and his followers have been
telling lugiliycs that they have right to slny
any man, he lac even master or public Off
Ger, who attempts to impede ihcir flight; and
these doluded negroes, in perpelraling the
atrocious murder we record to-day, have Oh.
ly ohcyed the advice of those whom they
consider their friends. Other negroes. too,
who were in no danger of re-cnpiurc, have
become, under-ihc influence of the same
pernlcious doctrines, accessories To this mur-
der. Nor do the guilty parties stop here

TH, Of That damning deed, johnson and his
organ cOnspire to shield them. A more nu-
daclons insult to the community was never
dreamed OF, even by desperate men who see
aud feel that their doom is approaching.
We will not however, insult the reader
by arguing that which has not been hereto
fore doubled, and which is not now doubted
10y ten honest men in the Slate-and that is,
that the Aboliionists are implicated in the
Chrlsliann murder. All the ascerlained facts

the chief instigators White men are known
TO hnrbor the iigiliycs in the ~neighhorhood
of Christiana-and these white men are
kRolra TO be .AbohiioniSis- -knotcn to he oppo-
scd to the Fugitive Slave Lnw-and knoicn

less Than three wllic men are now in Ian
caster prison. aud were arrested on the
morning of the llth. And one oflIesc white
men was committed on n charge OF High

One would suppose, from the advice of
forciblc resistance, so lamiliarly given 10y the
aboltionisls, that they are quite unawarcs
that there is any such crime as treason re-
cognzed 10y the Constitution, or punished
with death by the laws of the United States.
We would remind them, that not only is
there such crime, but there is n solemn de-
cision Of the Supreme Court, that all who
nre concerned in conspiracy which ripens
into treason, whether present or absent from
the scene OF actual violence, are involved in
the same liabilities Ns the immediate actors.
lfihey engage in the conspiracy aud stmu-
late the treason, they may keep their bodies
from the aitray, without saving their necks
from n halter.
1t would be very much to the advantage
Of society, if an example could be made of
some OF these pcstilent agiators, who excite
the ignorant and reckless TO reasonable vo-
lence, from which they themselves shrink,
but who are, not only in morals but in law,
equally guilty and equally nmonnble TO pun
