Portions of the Union party in East Alabama
refuse TO acquiesce in the movement for send

are holding meetings in favor Of maintaining

The resolutions adopted at Wing county and

already been published in our columns An
adverse meeting has since been held in Russell
county, when resolutions were agreed to de-
caring that it is impossible to affiliate with the

A Fact for the Friend. OF Reciprocity.

"By referring to the great volume of annual re-
ports from the colonies, laid before the Imperial
Parliament, entitled "The Past and Present State
of Her Majestys Colonial Possessions for 1851
now lying before me, find that Canada imported
from Great Britain, in 1850. goods to the value of
e., 407 $780, from the United States El ,6iS us
Now, any Wholesale importer will tell you that the
articles taken from Great Britain are chiefly MANU-
features, whilst those from the States are composed
mostly OF such things as Canada ne Their pro-
duce nor make; such sugar, tea coffee tobacco,
and long list Of others of less importance. 1t
must, therefore, be against the English manufac-
turer that you want protection, and not against the
American"
The above, from the London correspondence
of the Hamilton canada WesD Spectator, is
strongly confirmatory Of the views we have
endeavored to impress upon our readers in re-
lation to the so called question Of reciprocity
with Canada. The fact mentioned by the wr-
ter shows the insignifcance of our interest in
the Canadian market as compared with the in
terest of the English manufacturers, and with
the importance Of the surrender which we are
called upon 10 make. The thorough going
free-trader, who persists in policy depressing
TO every branch Of American industry for the
enrichment Of foreign power, may with per
feet consistency seek to carry measure that
would enlarge the area of competition,
and tend more rapidly to destroy the small
remainder Of domestic trade. Blu, we are at a
loss to comprehend the philosophy of politicians
generally sound on the proteclionst question,
who propose TO make our commercial inter
course with Canada exceptional for the sup
posed benefit Of circumscribed localities.
The statement has another bearing. 1t re-
veals the error Of those Canadians who, while
seeking protection, limit their efforts to the
exclusion Of the lesser imports, while the greater
are TO be permitted 10 flow in as now. Canada
needs protection as much as any section Of the
Union, but she needs it most Of all against
England.

adopted by the convention:
Resooed, That we recognise in MiLLARD FILL

just and patriotic in the proper discharge Of the du-
ties Of the office of President Of the United States

Resolued, That great credit is due to him for his
noble and firm course in regarding strictly the
policy of the illustrious Washington, and for the
firm manner in which he made known to Louis
Kossuth this his determinations; that. from the Pc
riod OF his taking the reins OF Government. he has
proved himself the strenuous advocate OF the doc

The writer, it will be seen, awards high
praise to the capabilities of Canada as a field
of labor; but that point is widely apart from
the real question at issue. Are the negroes in
Canada sober, Industrious, and happy2 The
AbolltIonists say aye. BIBB, a more compe-
tent witness, declares that the contrary is the
truth. He charges that they drink whisky, lie,
do not work, and live by mendlcancy; that the
country is fertile, and that any man living there
may obtain the means of subsistence, are cir
cumstances that add force to the impression
that under no possible influences can the free

RIoHTs OF MARRIED WomKN IS ISpI.rA.-We
learn from statement in the Louisville Democrat
thai among the reforms IN law proposed uy the
law commissioners Of Indiana is a bill regulating
the Law Of descenis, changing materially the rights
OF married women. Tho Democra at says:
They nre plnced by the proposcd law on he
basls OF the civil law, entitled TO the communGuiS,
or the partnership interest in the property Of tho
husband, instead Of th, dover, or lic-esiate. They
hold the fee in one-thrd Of tho realty on the de-
cease Of the husband, instead of the tcndancy, ns
formerly The husband is restricted from nlienn-
ZION by will or deed without the consent Of the
wife OF her interest provided for her by the law.
Until copy OF the bill shall be published, shall
be unable TO more than glance at these radical
changes. We believe, however, that they are cal
culaod 10 be Of much service. The stern doctrines
OF the fathers OF the common law have had their
day; and chivalry, which made pet, as slso
puppet Of n woman, has yielded TO tho belief that
women are neither angels nor devoid Of common
sense. Chivalry, or bread and butter; the last is
decidedly preferable"
