TERRIBLE RESULTS.

TERRIBLE RESULTS.
The Salem rescue seems to have madc a stir in
Memphis as well Ms in Cincinnati. 1t will DO re-
collected that Robinson who claimed the child was
n resident Of Memphis. We learn that the people
Of that city, have held a meeting and unanimously
adopted resolutions which were reported in due
form by n Committee Of ten. Those resolutions
portcnd terrible evil to Cincinnati, nothing less
than the suspension of all commercial relations
with it Ivy the Memphis people, unless they repu-
diate the action of Salem. They also recommend
to other slave holding communities the same
coursc.
The members of the Memphis meeting could
certainly not have read the Cincinnati newspapers
else they would have seen that their resolutions
were entirely supcrnuous. If the press represents
the ointment Of the city, the course of Salem was
repudiatcd-and tho city on Its marrow bones, hum
bly, dcprccatiug slaveholdiug disploasure, long be-
Fore this Memphis Convention was hold or their
oversccrlikc resolutions reported or adopted. The
thrifty merchants with here and there an cxcep-
ton, have no idea of risking their custom, against
freedom. Hence in advance they deprecated the
wrath of the Memphis and other slave holders.
Prices OF NEwsrArERs.-.An exchange paper
says:
For IS months past, charging was all the
rare with newspapers. size was the test of merit.
But we believe, that without exception, every pub
Usher has burnt his fingers thereby. The tribune
which spread out most cxtravagantly, was the first
to come down. Many papers arc following its cx-
ample. Tho n. Y. Sun has cut off n column on
each page. The indianapolis Journat has taken
off a column. The Cincinnati Dailics have increas-
cd their subscriptions 20 per cent. q
The Bugle is published at u lower price than it
can be offered. 1t ought to be two dollars Fer
year. But if each subscriber would send us
vone nep one we conld afford to continue to furnish
them at our present rates. Villa all try to give a lift
in this direction.
SALEM USIoN SCuooL.--By q reference to the
advertisement of the Union School in our columns
to-day, it will be seen that the Board have secured
the services of Mr.. lIolbrook. They offer rare adj
vantagcs to pupils frop Salem, as well as to those
from abroad. Their excellent apparatus, MIR. Hol-
brooks long and successful experience as a teacher
and the character of his assistants, give assurance
of the most ample means of instruction, to all who
choose to avail themselves of the advantages OF
this School.
Mr.. SULIoT's CLASSES, for the study Of The IAN
guagcs and the mathematics, offer excellent advan-
tagcs to all who desire to prosecute these branches.
"SYMrToMs OF A New MovENENT."-Th Column
bian and other papers, think there are symptoms
of Il new political movement" among the disunion
abolitionists. We have not detected such symp-
toms yet, not even when pointed out by our friends.
An article from the Standard, by Edmund Quincy,
so,,, u, lao Tho I,,EiS Of This opin;nn rIn last
STANDARD contains an article in reference to these
symptoms, which makes it manifest that they are
no symptoms at ali, of a new political organization,
but only indications Of the writer's good will to-
wards Free Sellers, and other voters, who would
make their voting tell in behalf of freedom.
Horse FAIR.-The ample preparations for the
fair next week, arc fast vcrging to their completion.
The Democrat Of last week says:
"Tho company have been ut great expense in
fitting up grounds and preparing for the exhibition,
and are happy to announce that the prospects for
n grand display Of coed horses are more favorable
than the most sanSuinc anticipated. From all
parts OF the country, east, west, north and south,
we hear of men who are coming with their noble
stccds to add to the interest of the occasion. The
citizens of our town have placed the latch string
out med that no man shall go away dissat-
isled with his accommodations"
"
TIE CoLuMDIANA COUNTY FAIR was held last
week. As was to have been expected, the cxhibi-
ton of agricultural and horticultural products was
a meagre one, and the mechanical and stock de-
partment not much better supplied. To make up
for lack of interest in the legitimate objects Of the
Fair, the managers introduced on the grounds
equestrian fcats, representations Of Indian songs,
dances and massacres, with Jim Crow music and
gymnastics. In this the managers decidedly erred,
and we hope to see their error corrected another
year. Under such an arrangement, fairs will soon
dcservedly come into d~isrcpute with those most re
.sponsiblc for the success of the interests they are
profcssedly designed to promote.
The drouth was as unfortunate for the orators rs
for the vegetables. Two speakers were advertised
but none appeared.
Nor SATisFiED.-The Wilmington Herald Of
Freedom has never been satisfied with the Columbu:
platform, and, as we think, for very good reason
1t says of it in reply to a taunt by tho Cincinnati
Enquirer;
ave feel ashamed to think that ABoLIrIoNIsrs
aiayc accepted the proposition to stand side by side
with Shareholders in the ostcnsiblc act of staying
the progress of slavery to free territory, and only
that. We always did despise ute things, and that
platform is in its moral aspect SO inconceiyably
little as to be justly considered dcsricable. But
Jhe Enquirer is not mite Just we DO not oppose
the measures, and support the men we support
the measures and the men. The measure is as
good as any single one we could propose, and the
men are fit to be elected; but we objected to making
a single plank serve as Il platform"
RAILROAD FARE.-The Railroad Convention at
Columbus, two weeks since resolved to increase the
charges for freight and passengers and also to dis
pose with the distribution of free tickets.
So far as editors are concerned, we are on the
whole pleased with this last arrangements. II
