for whole week. Being disObedicnt, and
refusing to answer her mother when spoken

corner for about an hour, brooding over her
bad conduct, that she was unable to utter or
articulate word Her friends did not take
particular notice of her for a couple of days,

speak, when her friends became alarmed

son knows it, who knows anything about that
gentleman-is much better at fighting battles
than at writing letters; and hope his friends
will impress that fact very strongly on him, If
he is nominated Besides the Democratic Con-
vention will meet first, and if they commit fa-
tai errors you will have the benefit of expe-
rience, and can avoid them. But if General
Scott in an authoritative manner, undertakes
to put himself ON that platform, the defeat that
he will experience will be more overwhelming
and severe than any he inflicted on any OF the
Mexican generals with whom he came in con-
tact do not believe his chance is very good;
at the best not more than middling To be
sure, he has a good deal Of military renown
which may help him along; but give him
everything-give him all his PreStige-he Is
tall without his feather but put that on him,
and his chance is not great and if, with all
that, he undertakes to step on this platform,
that moment he seals his defeat it will be
hopeless, irremediabe.

CASTE IN THE CHURCH.

The Church Of the Crucifxon, Of Philadel-
phia, has colored congregation, but the yes
trymen and clergymen are white. The subject
Of admitting white delegates from this church
was debated with great warmth in the Episco-
pal Convention at Philadelphia on the 2lst A
special committee was appointed on the subject
in 1851, and majority and minority reports
were submitted at the late Convention
A majority report Of the committee recon-
mended that the churches should be retained
in union with the Convention, with the priv
lege Of sending lay deputies.
The minority report from the two object
ing members Of the committee was then read
by Joseph R. Ingersoll, Esq. The report OPP
posed the admission of lay deputies from the
Church Of the Crucifxion
Rev. DR.. Hare spoke at some length in favor
of the majority report.
aRev Mr.. Kirk, in favoring the majority re-
port, elected reply FROM Mr. ingersoll, in
which that gentleman commented ON, with
combined wit and argument the marked line
of distinction, and the irreyersible difference
between the white and colored races, as mani
fest decree of Providence
After an eloquent appeal by Bishop Potter
in behalf Of the resolution of the majority, the
vote was taken by yeas and nays, with the fol-
lowing result
"The vote was-Clergy, SO yeas to IS nays
Laity, % yeas to 81 nays The resolution was
lost
If these negatives should ever happen to get
to Heaven, there will be some awkward remn-
iscences on meeting with their brethren of the
Church of the Crucifxion. Mr. Ingersolrs
I" wit and argument in favor of caste will not
be quite so amusing there as in the Episcopal
Convention of Philadelphia.

THE POSITION OF THE DEMOCRACY.

On the retirement OF Major Donelson from
the Washington Union, it was supposed that
the course of that paper in regard to the FL
nality test would be changed-but this was
mistake, Its policy continues unchanged. II
rtill urges distinct recognition of the Com.
promise and Fugitive Law by the Convention
about to meet at Baltimore, and the nomina-
ton of a candidate openly committed to them
The speech of Mr. King of New York does not
seem 70 have even modified its tone, 1t finds
in it nothing very decided-it understands him
to acquiesce in the adjustment measures and
to be favorable to harmony; while his Incl
dental declarations at variance with what it
considers the main purpose of his speech, 1t re-
CARDS us the consequences Of the false position
IN which he had previously placed himself
We have no doubt that at one time il was in
the power Of any respectable number of North
ern Democrats to have determined the action

PUBLIC SENTIMENT IN CALIFORNIA

The Fugitive Slave Bill, after protracted
struggle in the Legislature of California. has
become a law II authorizes the reclamation
of colored persons as fugitive slaves, brought
by their owners into California prior to its ad-
mission as State An attempt was made TO
restrict its application to those introduced be-
fore the adoption Of the Constitution, but it
failed-the majority assuming the ground that
as California was Territory until its admis-
sion into the Union by Congress, the citizens
of the United States could not be deprived of
their property by any law save that of Con-
gress. In their Judgment then, slaves are
property, Shareholders have right to carry
them into every Territory of the United States
whatever its condition or local law. In other
words they adopt in full the dogma Of the
Calhoun school Of politicians
The bill authorizes the claimant TO hold the
so-caled fugitive in servtude merely for the pur-
pose of taking him away, and it, provisions
are to have force and effect only for twelve
months from the pssess Sf No aet except
where a fugitive within the meaning Of the
act conceals himself 10 avoid seizure.
The law has no warrant in Justice, or in the
Consultation Of the United States, and we hope
it will be declared nsll and void in the first
case that shall come ap under its provisions
The Constitution Of the United States provides
for the reclamation Of fugitives from service
or labor escoping from one STATE into another
The Fugitive Slave Law, under which alone
fugitives from service Or labor can DO arrested
and delivered up follows the phraseoloy o.
the Constitution. Nov, BY what rule OF oos'
struction can persons who were carried By
their masters from the States in which they
were held in slavery % . Territory in which
slavery was forbidden b Tho local law, be con

cspitalists and landholders to obtain the mas

tives has exercised the power plainly given,
:" to dispose of the territory belonging TO the
United States" The assumption that thepower
should be exercised according to the will, IN
the way, and for the purposes indicated by the
grantors of the lands coded to the United States,
is untenable, and has been repeatedly over
ruled in principle by the Supreme Court of the
United States, which refuses to look behind
the Federal Constitution in determining the
validity of an act Of Congress.
On the policy of the bill the article OF the
Inteiigenceris vague and unsatisfactory. We
do not see the point of its remarks, except
that it is an agrarian law and agrarian laws
10 ancient Rome were the devices of dema-
gogues for the overthrow of the rights of prop
erty and the cause Of order; and that the bill,
moreover, is favored by Socialists, Anti-Renters,
Sc, and is therefore mschieyous.
This mode of augmentation, if entitled to
be SO designated, may prove quite effective with
those who are apt to take counsel of Prejudice
or Fear, rather than Reason but that it hai
failed to make any impression on men famlllal
with the lessons of History, of discerning minds
with an enlightened regard for order and tn
rights of property, is sufficiently shown by tn
fact that the most distinguished statesmen o
the country now favor this great agrarla'
measure. as it is called and when we nam
Daniel Webster among them, We should thinI
that fact alone calculated to raise doub
even in the minds of the editors Of the Inteti
gencer, whether they are not unnecessary
alarmed
We know not how far the attempt will b
made to damage the prospects Of the BILL b
chasing it with the agrarian laws of Rome, an
conjuring up all sorts of vague horrors abou
those laws; but should it be persisted in, W.
shall try to expose the gross miscopceptiol
Of agrarianism prevalent among men, other

information on this subject from worn ou

LEWISBURG WING.

~The Presidential Election il over;
and the People have decreed-as they
did in 40, "A, and '4s-a change in the
National Administration.
Nothing is more natural, in great con-
test like that now closed, than for the
friends of the prominent candidates to ia
dulge the strongest hopes Of success Their
wishes, and ex-p.rte information, always
tend to strengthen their hopes. Both par
ties believed victory almost certain. Hence
the result causes most sincere, abiding
sorrow to the friends of Windield Scott ;
nor do We believe his opponents anticipated
anything like the success which they
enjoy.
The causes Of this revolution of popular
feeling, are variously stated. No one
doubts that Gen. Scott's services far out
weigh those of his rival. His claims and
qualifications, civil and military, exceeded
those presented by all but one of the four
distinguished Generals at the time they
were elevated BY generous people to the
hig hest honor in their gift.
We attribute Soott's defeat, not to the
American people, but to adverse Ioreiiys in
Auenoes The Tory journals of Great Britain
it ID known, universally advocated Pierce 8
election. The Manufacturers of England,
who now make many millions yearly from
US directly BY the Revenue Tariff Law, it is
asserted and believed contributed One Mil
lien Of Dollars to be employed in defeating
Gen. Scott and tas protective Tariff party.
1t is certain that Auguste Belmont, acting
Charge d Affairs Of Austria, and Financial
Agent of the Rothscbilds in New York
City, was heavy better on Pierce, aud one
Of the most energetic in devising ways and
means to elect him. Nine out of ten of
the Foreign votes we're cast for Pierce.
Another active under-current at work
against Scott, was the gillibuster' or
Cuba-etealiug enterprise, which has been
twice frustrated BY VIII: administration.
'Ss ""'0n ""s, - We pciieSe, the secret
agency which brought about Pierce's nom.
inatisn just 40 Texas was employed to carry
Polk against Clay. The history Of tho
sslfstyisd Democrats" party for the
past eight years, is history Of attempt.
to extend the cause Of Slavery under The
sacred banner Of Liberty. 10 give more
strength, and By come pretext, real or
