MISS DAvENPoRT,s BENEFIT.

After most successful engagement of two
weeks at the Variete, Miss Davenport takes
her farewell benefit tonight. Two Of her most
popular pieces are announced "Adrienne the
Actress and "London Assurance" She will
be ably supported by Mr.. Goodall, Mr.. Gala
gher Mr.. Divine, Mrs. Littel, Mrs. .Altemus,
Miss Newton, and the strength of the company.
This announcement should, as it undoubtedly
will, fill the house to its utmost capacity.
Miss Davenport's best delneations are, in
our opinion, her pathetic characters, as "Ca-
MILE" " Adrienne,n and others. In these she
stands unrivalled. But one opinion has been
expressed of her representation Of Camille =
and we believe full and fashionable houses
would have greeted her appearance in that
character for many successive nights, cir
cumstance almost unknown here for the per-
formance of any one character. In this en-
gagement she has made many friends and ad-
mrers, who will regret her departure from the
Variete.
On Monday night, Mr.. and Mrs. Barney
Williams will succeed Miss Davenport
We learn that Mr.. Risley has taken lease
Of the Charles street theatre Baltimore, lately
under the management Of Miss Laura keene.
Miss Davenport will add her attractions to that
establishment on the opening night, Monday
next. Mr.. Wayne Divine also appears there
for short time.

THE CLAMORs OF THE ABOLITION
lSTS.

A stranger to our people and institutions
whilst viewing the numerous public gather
ings that have been called by the abolhonsts
in different parts of the country, reading their
frantic appeals, and seeing the scores. OF peti-
tions and remonstrances which they have sent
ia TO Congress, in order to arrest the great
measure now before it-and seeing OH the 9TH
er side calm sobriety and unbroken silence,
would conclude that the great bulk and body
of the people were opposed to that measure
They would be led to suppose that there are,
comparatively but few friends to it. But to US,
who understand the disposition of our people,
who know the tricks, stratagems, and contriv
ances resorted to by fanatics, to produce agi'
tation and excitement, the whole thing is plain
and not to be mistaken.
The sound constitutional men of the country
view with contempt the loud mouthed clamors
of the abolitionists and freesoilers. Indeed
these clamors are but the dying walls OF
that pestent gang. They feel their weakness,
and seek to hide it from the eyes of others by
making a great show Of strength. They re-
semble the boy who, while passing BY grave
yard at night, whistles most Justify to keep up
his courage.
1t is gratifying to think that the friends o
the great measure tofshich we ailude, have
conducted themselvesiwith the gravity, digni
ty, and decorum, so well BETTING the subjec
and the occasion.
Washington sentinel., 1854-03-04

labor not being taxed at all, should not have
been represented at all; and yet the reverse is
the fact. If direct taxation were now to be
resorted to, there would be some seventeen
hundred millions of dollars worth of slaves to
be taxed, orer and Adore, and equal taxation
on all other property Nth the north Those
who make such a shameless and baseless out
cry against three-ffth representation of slaves,
should consider for one moment this view Of
the case.
That should the south exchange slavery to
an apprenticeship, they would BY that act gain
two-fifths in federal representation, and escape
an enormous tax, whenever made direct; while
theapprentces being disfranchised, the southern
white man would have the relative value OF his
vote with northern man, now so complained
Of greatly enhanced.
The alleged objection to slavery going into
the Territories, that white laborwil not go where
slave labor is is not the true one. The real
objection is, that white labor will not mingle
with negro labor on equal terms. Free negro
labor is vastly more distasteful to the white la,
borer than the slave labor. The latter are usu-
ally civil, sober, and have no object or motive
to interfere with the white man, while the free
negro is to the last degree offensive to the white
laborer; insolent, lazy, and intemperate, as a
class, vastly inferior to the slaves. So that il
slavery were abolished tomorrow in.the south
ern States, it would open upon the northern
laborer the Aood-gates of nuisance already
hateful to him. In the Territories slave would
be quietly at work on his owners farm q free
negro would be roaming about, thrusting HIM
self in competition with the white man, and
compelling him, if the negroes be numerous
enough to rival him, to come down to the scanty
pittance upon which they themselves starve, OF
eke out by thieving. The laboring men at the
north must ever be the mortal foes Of those
who necessarily struggle by every means to LEI
loose upon them hated negro rivalry.
Washington sentinel., 1854-03-04

we have received in the last few weeks, there
is nothing TO warrant the belief that peace
full settlement will be effected. Indeed oil the
foreign ncws tends rather to strengthen the be-
lief that the war will be pushed with increas-
ing vigor The period of forty days allowed TO
Russia for her decision on the terms of adjust
ment proposed by the four powers has expired.
The French and English fleets contemplate a
ing, however, the threatening aspect of affairs,
it is rumored that fresh negotiations are on the
tapis, which, it is hoped by many, will be at
tended with success. We have so often ex-
pressed our opinions in regard to this subject,
that we feel it to be almost unnecessary to in
dulge farther in speculations. Our readers are
furnished with the same means ofjudging that
we ourselves enjoy.
