Border Difficulties.

Our Geographic dispatches have given the
tidings of'the way in which the Fugitive slave
law is executed in Pennsylvania The officer
in selEdefence, is compelled to STAY the prisoner
and save his own life by flight, holly pursued by
infatuated enemies. But for his promptitude, he
would possibly have shared the fate of Con.
SUCH. This case will probably lead to wcrdy
war between the governors of Maryland and
Pennsylvania, and possibly to serious conse.
quences. In the Philadelphia North American
we find another case recorded, which shows how
the law is executed in Cincinnati These border
difficulties are getting grave:
FUGITIVE, SLAVE CAsE-We learn from the
Cincinnati Enquirer that on Tuesday week Mr..
G. w. Burnside, of Cynthianna, KY, came TO
Cincinnati in search of runaway slave q yellow
girl, named Alkaline, who had eloped from his
residence about two weeks previous, with a
colored barber, freeman, to whom she had
been married against the consent of her master.
On the Friday following, the master took two
stout fellows, and went to the House where the
couple were, surrounded by their friends.
Mr.. B. asked Alkaline if she would 20 with
him, to which she consented Her husband re-.
monstrated, which led to q rencontre between
the parties, in which one of the friends of Mr..
B. was knocked down. Dir. B. fired pistol at
the husband, which missed its aim, when the
husband fired another, taking effect in the thigh
of Dir. B. At this stage Mr.. B. and his friends
gave the idea of capturing his property up.

Campaign Papers.

When the coalition thought they had secured
the printing job, forthwith each of them put
forth glowing prospectus for" campaign pa
per-" From the TelegraphEwe learn that the
Union's first number consists " of a large edi-
ton Of the Wing address," which is being
"franked and distributed by thousands" as Pub.
Docs, we suppose
Well, that address contains sounder doc.
trine than tho Union is in the habit of putting
forth under its present executor.
We suppose the Republic will reciprocate by
re-publishing, as its first campaign paper, the
Union's laudations Of Messrs FILLMORE and
WEBSTER last summer. They would serve its
turn admirably In fact, a reprint of the Union
would do the Democracy more damage, than
any original Wing documents possibly could.

THE BAR AND HARBoK OF CHARLESTON
We have placed upon the first page of this
mornings Daily Courier, for the benefit of our
city readers, the report of the scientific CON-
mission, detailed by the United States govern
ment, at the request of the Charleston chamber
OF commerce, to examine as to the feasibility
of improving and deepening the channels at the
entrance of our harbor. 1t appears that their
Investigations have resulted in recommends
ton that an experiment should first be made to
deepen the Sullivan's island channel, which
they conceive could be effected with better
prospects of success, and at much less expense,
than any other. 1t is long within our rec o.
lection, when our New York packets, leav. q
the city with a fresh south wind, were enabled
to proceed directly to sea, by that channel, or
the north channel adjoining it, without making
a single tack; thereby avoiding the long reach
which stretches down to the old ship channel
and inward bound ships, of moderate size, with
the wind from the north, were enabled to run
in through that pass, and lay their course di.
rectly up to the city. If the suggestions of
these scientific gentlemen can be carried into
effect, the advantages to the commerce Of our
city will be incalculabe.-C Courier.

enofed aud avoided. The struggle between
the parties is TO be simply partizsu scufiis fot
place and power, struggle between men-a war
between the "ins" and the ~ohts."
What constitutes the cardinal difference be-
tween the principles Of the old Wing and the
old Democratic parties as proposed to be re-
organized Time was when such distinction
was broad and deep on measures of public po-
licy-a difference as to measures as well as
men. Is it 10 now! One cardinal principle OF
Democracy used to be "a strict construction OF
the Constitution" But now CAss and FILLMORE
and their respective followers combine In CON-
promising away that doctrine, while the Wanted
organ of Democracy joins the National infellt-
gcncer in singing rGans of praise to the Massa-
chusetts expounder and swearing most Justify
that athe principles of the East" as proclaimed
BY General JACKSON, are the true Democratic
principles. Another principle used to be oppo
sition to National Bank Well, that issue is
dead past resurrection. Another, Free Trade.
Neither party contends for high protection
now, but very orthodox Democrats would like
to see Pennsylvania iron and coal interest
protected little, while Southern Wings are
found pronouncing for free trade. Opposition
to magnificent system of public improvements
and the liberal donation of public domain for
such purposes, used to be another point of an.
angonism. The records Of the last and of the
present session will show whether this dividing
line is stil kept up.
In like manner we might run over the
whole political gamut. and prove that what
used to be discords have now been In
monized into melodies-payed in concert by
both parties-but the task is unnecessary, since
avery candid man will admit the fact without
argument. Are there, then, no issues before
The country sufficiently broad to form the basis
Of parties which could struggle for the suprem-
acy, not alone of men, but of principles Un-
there are-gravc, important, vital
questions, Of enduring interest and importance,
which cannot long be ignored, nor safely evaded.
Sectional questions which must be settled soon
,r never: which, if their inalty be not soon en-
,ured, will end in disastrous and fatal collisions
between sections discovered, discordant and bel
ligerent rent with internal feuds," and dreuchcd,
it may be, with fraternal blood
Such are the questions which really concern
the country, and the permanent peace and pros
perity of all it's citizens. Let them be looked
TO ere il be too late.

The RIGHT OF jews TO SIT In PARLIAMENT.
In the court of exchequer, on the 23d utimo,
Judgment was given in the case of Miller against
Siiomons. 1t was an action to recover penalties
from Alderman Salomons for having sat and
voted in the House of Commons without having
taken the required oaths. Baron Martin was Of
opinion that as the oath which was taken by the
defendant was the most binding on his con.
cence, that was the mode in which he most con-
formed with the law and he, therefore, was of
opinion that judgment ought to be entered for
the defendant. Baron Anderson differed from
Baron Martini and was of opinion that Judgment
should be entered for the plaintiff The Lord
Chief Baron said it could not be doubted that
the oath must be taken in the very form and
words prescribed by the act, and judgment must
therefore go for the plaintiff Judgment for the
plaintiff accordingly.
On Tuesday, April goth. in the House of Lords.
the Marquis OF Clanrcarde put the question az
10 what were the intentions of government with
respect to the grant to the College of Maynootb
The Earl of Derby repeated, that government
had no intention of making any alteration in the
Law on the subject, but should circumstances
occur to change their views, and lead to an al.
teration in their policy, ample notice would be
given In both houses Of Parliament. Earl Grey
expressed his dissatisfaction with the want Of
expcitneps in the Earl Of Derby's statement,
and called upon him to declare whether he still
entertained the same opinions upon the matter
which he expressed in 1S45 The Earl of Derby
said that was question which the noble earl
had no right to ask, and which he declined to
answer; but he would Fay he had been greatly
disappointed in the result of the policy he then
supported. After spirited discussion, in which
Earl Mimic. Earl Harrowby, Marquis Of Lands.
downe, and the bishop of Cashel took part, the
matter dropped.

The ARREST OF CHANGARNIER.-Mr. Walsh,
in late letter to the New York Journal of Com
merce, relates the following anecdote, which he
says was related to him by disguised French
gentleman as from the officer in command in the
Place de la Concorde.
"On the Cd December before daylight, two per
sons, muffled in coaks-one a tall man, the other
ofmddle stature--appeared on that place or square,
and approaching one OF the sentinels near the
obelisk, asked whether he had heard the sound of
bugle; the answer was in the negative; but soon
there came three distinct notes Of bugle from
the direction Of the Tuileries. The smaller man
said to the other, ''non cher-it is done; let us
CO." They retreated towards the Palace Elysee.
The event was the arrest Of General Changarnier
the speaker, Louis Napoleon, who had come
forth the better to hear the concerted signal.

stage. Lola lodged at the hotel whore the La
dy boarded, so after tho dancer returned from
the theatre, the lady walked softly 10 the door
and peeped in through the crack. Judge of her
surprise when she saw her own husband seated
at the table taking cozy oyster supper with
the object OF her adherence.

coalition organ of this city. 1t will be seen that
it wants substitute for the Union, as Demo.

| see by Boston paper that General Uraga
and the Spanish consul, lately visited the navy
yard at Boston, and were received with salute
of thirteen guns. II is not stated whether the
honor was intended for the consul or the gen.
eral; but presume it was equally divided be.
tween them QuERE: Would an American gen.
eral be received in this way in Mexico, or an
American consul in Spain 1t is to be pre-.
sumed, however, that as the fifty gun salute to
the Spanish consul at New Orleans was an
owledgement for the fifty Americans butch.
cred at Havana, the six .and'ahalf guns in honor
of the Spanish consul at Boston, is to conciliate
the Spanish government, 80 far as not to garote
the American engineer who is now imprisoned
by the authorities of Cuba under some pretence
or other Our statutsh administration seems
to think this species Of firing much preferable
to that annually resorted to in defence of the

DISCRIMINATING DUTIES.
1t is surmised that an attempt will be made
to modify the tariff-at proper season-by re-
hitting all duties on railroad iron, and adding
ten per cent. on all iron imported for other pur-
poses. Being great way behind the spirit of
the age, should like very much to know on
what pri.ciple this discrimination is based, and
why unemployed for one purpose is to be re
leved from all import duties, while an additional
duty of tan per cent is laid on iron for all other
purposes. Is not the iron used for domestic
purposes quito 40 important to the general and
individun interests ms railroad iron Are not
