New BSGLAND AS1I-SLNrRY CdSyENtioN.-We
can give no account Of the proceedings of this
Convention We have seen none, except q carried
ure which has been going tic rounds of the papers
Our friends fail, in not getting abroad, early ac-
ccounts of thoir meetings Papers of wide circu.
lation, as the Tribune and Evening Post would
gladly publish them il they were furnished. Thus
we might get abroad truthful representations of
our doings and sayings, and forestall, mcasurably
at least the false representations which have SO
prejudiced tho community against our principles
and measures. 1t is vexatous to us not to be able
to publish the accounts Of grand and important as
semblings until three or four weeks after their
occurrence. Readers have by that time lost much
Of their interest and the publication is less valu-
able than il would otherwise be.

THE VALUE OF THE UNION.

Those who would SEQ what the UnioH Is worth,
pecuniarily should send TO the Tribune Office for
copy Of the pamphlets Published there, containing
the articles recently published in the Tribune.
Many are now calculating the Unions value, who,
while ago, deemed it treason to put arithmetic to
any such use. Now, men are beginning to have O
glimpse at the truth, that slavery must last while
the Union lasts; and that while ii lasts, there can
be no end TO its outrages and aggressions. Hence
articles such as those of the Tribune are read with
interest and appreciation and paragraphs like the
following from the Canton Transcript are to be
found in many papcrs of the country.
Speaking of the Nebraska bill, the TranscriI,
says.
Thus has been consummated one Of the grossest
frauds upon the wishes, liberties, and rights Of the
people which the future historian will have occa
sion to record Of the sovereignty Of the people a
the commencement Of the first decade Of the latter
half of the nineteenth century, perpetrated unt
accomplished through the influence Of q corrup
executive.
| The North has tacitly submitted to two inferna
aggrcssons from the South and We think 1t higl
time for the North to take her position ms lfcemen
We are no advocates for the dissolution Of th
Union, but rather than become the tools Of southcri
aggression and usurpation to see our dearest right
trampled under foot and the slave power predomin
ant we would advocate the dissolution Of the UniOi
and the annexation Of Canada.
If we submit tanely to the repeal Of the Missouri
Compromise, andthe Introduction of slavery int
Nebraska We will be obliged to submit to the pur
afterwards 10 the annexation Of the whole of Mex
leo MS slave State
The Transcript goes FOR tho whole measure o
active resistance to the slave power.

NEBR AsIIA.

The special organ of the Administration backs up
Douglass Nebraska Bill This is natural. In fact it
is a godsend to The Union TO have subject which
il can denounce the Free Sellers and pledge itself
anew TO lick the feet OF the Shareholders Its bunker
friends have been crowdng it hard lately for its de7O
ton to the Sets and the Abolition procyities which
they charge upon IT,
We hear from Washington that Douglass Bill is
likely to be supported by some Northern Wings. We
shall not be surprised at any turn affairs may take at
Washington. 1t takes pluck to resist strong adverse
current in political affairs And this is too much to
expect of good many gentlemen who find their way
TO Washington Ii is vastly easier to 20 with the tide
always than to stem it, But why Northern men who
have steadily sustained the doctrine OF the Wimo.
Proyiso should now abandon it, is past our art to dis
cover Is il said that every State has right estab
sh institutions of whatever kind AMI color ii chooses
and that what State may do after it has become
member of the Union, il may do in IFS incipien steps
to become one There is pausibility in the sugges-
ttn, and on this ground the course recommended in
Douglas Bill viii be concurred in by Northern Wings,
If concurred in at all. But how wide will be such
departure, from sound doctrine There was a solemn
compact made between North and South, or the ad
mission Of Missouri, that there should be Slave
State north of S6' 80. 1t was clearly and uneqlyO-
caly sgreed that Slavery should never pOute the
great Northwest Territory and up TO this time, the
idea Of departing hairs breadth from this explicit
stipulation and compact would have been secuted by
the entire North sHd by every honorable man in the
South Why, even Mr. Webster himself voted prompt
ly and squarey to apply the ProysO to the bill estab
fishing the Territorial Government of Oregon. But

We call attention to the decision of the Commits
soner of Patents published in another column against
the application OF SAMUEL COLT for an extension of
Lis patent. We think our readers will fad the con
celebrations Of the Commissioner satisfactory and his
conclusion just The case which he thus disposes of
has been carried before Congress, and attempt is
there making TO carry through special law in favor
of this patentee. We understand that his application
is one of considerable number which it is hoped may
be disposed of in the same way. We trsst the hope
may be disappointed. There is no good reason for
newing these great privileges by special legislation
and matter what influences may be brought to bear
Congress, trust they will prove insufficient to
carry the project through.
