MORE AFFIDAvITs.-The Republic of
yesterday continues the publication of afH-
davits to substantiate the accuracy of "Gen.
Pierce's Home Views of slavery" as re-
ported by Parson Foss. Robert and VIM.
P. Warren of Goffstown deposed that 1--WE
distinctly recollect that he (Gen. P. said,
IN answer to questions proposed to him,
that the Fugitive Slave law was opposed to
moral right and to humanity and that his
feelings revolted at the idea of giving up a
fugitive slave"
Sandy Smith of New Boston, distinctly
recollects that he (Gen. p spoke Of slave.
ry and the Fugitive Slave law as morally
wrong, and odious to his feelings, but which
he thought should be submitted to for the
present to preserve our National Union
That he said no man abhorred slavery more
than he (; and that he never saw human
being IN bondage without feeling his hear
revolt at it."
David Kelso of N. B., also "distinctly re.
collects that Gen. P. spoke of slavery anc
the Fugitive Slave law as great mora
wrong, and as repulsive to his feelings, anc
he used the expression, l never saw hui
man being in bondage without feeling my
heart revolt at 1t but he said we must sub
nit TO it as an evil for the sake of preserv'
ing the Union"
Phlneas Dodge distinctly recollects thai
General Pierce spoke of slavery and the
Fugitive Slave law as great moral wrong
and revolving to his feelings, but to which
We must submit for the sake of preserving
the Union"
Jacob Baily distinctly recollects that
Gen. P. spoke of slavery and the Fugitive
Slave law as moral wrong and according
TO the best of my recollection, he said that
he loathed the Fugitive Slave law, but that
we must submit to it for the sake Of pre-
serving the Union"
Chas. NJ. Fisher, Of N. B., swears, 81
distinctly recollect that he, Gen. Pierce,
spoke Of slavery as morally wrong, and as
repulsive to his feelings. He said that he
never saw human being in slavery but he
felt his heart revol! at it. He further SAID
that we ought to submit to the Compromise
measures for the sake of quiet, and that our
National Union might be preserved"
Geo. w. Clark, of N. B., deposes that
Gen. Pierce spoke of slavery and the Flu
gitive Slave law as a great moral wrong,
and as odious to his feelings. He said that
no man abhorred slavery more than him
self, and that no man would do more than
himself to abolish slavery if it could be
done consistent with the Constitutions that
he thought we oughtto adhere to the Com
promise for the sake of the National Union,
Samuel Dane deposes that while | can
not remember the precise words which he
(Gen. P.) used,I do recollect that he spoke
of slavery and the Fugitive Slave law as a
moral wrong, and as repulsive to his feel
ings; but he thought we must submit to il
for the present to preserve the National
Union.
Stephen Whipple distinctly recollects
that Gen. Pierce spoke of slavery and the
Fugitive Slave law as great moral wrong,
and as repulsive to his feelings, but tc
which in the present circumstances we
must submit for the sake of preserving the
Union.-Rich. Rep. of25M.

MELANCHOLY SUrCIDE.-Wele le lrn from
the Savannah Morning News that quite a
painful sensation was produced in that city
on Tuesday afternoon by the startling re-
port that a young Physician by the name
Of Joseph NJ. Boggs had committed sui
eide in his room at Mrs. PIatt's Boarding
House on Pulaski Square. He was first
discovered between three and four o'clock
in the afternoon, lying on the floor of his
sleeping room, by his office boy, who i'm
mediately gave the alarm. DIR. Bird be-
ing sent for was among the first who en-
tered the room, where he found the deeeas-
ed lying in very composed attitude on
his back, his head resting upon pillow
which he had placed on the back of a chair
turned down for the purpose. On the
floor, by his side, were a tumbler and an
empty phial which had contained prussic
acid, and to his breast, over which his
hands were studiously composed, was the
following note, written in free bold hand:
81 have taken half an ounce of Prussic
led. You can prove it by going to Lin
coins, or formerly Turner & Co.'S.
