MORE SOUTHERN vAPORING.

Gov. Winston, of Alabama, in his recent mes
sage, remarks as follows on the slavery issue.
The continued and violent agitation of slavery
by the people Of the non-slaveholding States OK.
hibits a settled purpose ON their part, led on by the
bigoted fanatic and the s~cbeming politician, to per-
init the south the enjoyment of no peace in the
Union until, aroused by t he spirit of freemen, we
will have them know VIC have borne with their
insult is no longer endurable.
The Union Of these States is only to be preserved
by q faithful observance Of the terms of the COM
pact, as agreed upon in the Constition and the
sooner the aggressor is made to understand such to
be our conclusion, the moro likely ia the Union to
last. So long as the Union is calculated to effect
the great objects which it was established to &C.
c~omplish, it should be sustained. But when the
government, under the control of n reckless major
ity, ceases to protect, and becomes an object of
oppression, il will have failed in the purpose Of its
creation, and will no longer be a proper object OF
respect or veneration.
Tho Government argues, as the only corrective
OF these outrages, q union Of the whole south; that
it has the men, the means and all resources in pro-
fusion to enable us to maintain both political and
commercial dependendence of the north-and
each section, from the ruin and bankruptcy which
must accrue to its interests, would soon be brought
to reason.
For myself, (says the Governor l have long
been convinced that the day for compromise and
appeals to northern forbearance had passed, and
that our safety depended on a sterner and more
manly course, resolved as heretofore, to ask for
nothing but what is right, aud determined to sub.
nit to no further wrong

The Southern Knownothings have been looking

Whether they will agree with the Kentuckians,

ALMOST a KIDNAPPING IL WoRcEsTEn.-Yester-
day forenoon, shortly before the departure Of the
$50 A. NJ. train on the Western Railroad, an Irish
lad about seventeen years of age came into the
Junction Depot. and begged to be secreted until
the the arrival of the train. lie told a straight
forward story, as follows:
That his name was Cronin: resided here with
his father. who together with the Roman Catholic
Priest, had endeavOred to force him to enter the
Catholic College here and become a priest that
they had often tried before to force him to turn
Catholic, he being a protestant; and that he had
broken away from them in the street, had taken a
hack. and that the hackman had knocked down a
big irishmah who was chasing him, and go he
made bis escape to the Dept, and wished to ge.

MEETING OF CoNGREss.-On Monday next, Con-
gress commences its sessions at Washington. OF
course the question of slavery will overshadow all
others. The Shareholders are united, they have
their purposes formed, their plans matured and the
cooperation of dem ocratic and know-nothing allies
secured, and they have all the weight of the presi-
dental power ana patronage with which to buy up
traitors who are now numbered with their oppo-
nents. The protested friends of freedom have to
struggle against this established and organized
power. Their organization is made up of discor-
dant materials. 1t has not been consolidated by
time. IL has made concessions to slavery which
have shorn it of its strength and will make it
easy for its members to make others still, so that
while we look forward with interest to the conflict
which will come, we can expect little else than
disaster and defeat as heretofore to the friends Of
freedom in Congress.
The Shareholders perhaps are somewhat more
fearful than heretofore for now they have to on
counter a ~professed majority against them in the
House of Representatives. But with the resolute
purpose and the appliances they have in their
power which they doubtless will use, they look con-
fdentally for.success. But we will wait and hope
though against expectatation, and chronicle to
our readers the events of the struggle as they tran
spire.

ANOTHER DIVISION BY SLAvERY.-The TURNER'S
is an organization of German gymnasts, extending
among the youthful of that class of population in
all parts of the United States. They have been
known always rs liberal in character and as espe-
cially the enemies of European despotism, and
have hitherto at least RETAINED from taking sides
with the Shareholders in this country. Recently
however the South Carolina branch of the Associ-
alton proposes a separation from their Northern
brethren because they are not sufficiently Jealous
as advocates of the pet institution of South Caro-
lima They are about to organize a separate asso-
citation of Southern Turner'S. No Union with
Freemenl is the shareholders motto. We APP

appointed military officers in Ohio, above the grade

G. G. BuRLEIGH.-By ue last Ashtabula SENT.
mel we see that G. G. Burleigh lectured in that
place on Sunday before last, while on his way to
the East. The Sentinel says Mr.. Burlcigh's "style
is almost free from exception. So ofhis argument.
But ais non-voting conclusions are simply imprac-
ticable and foolish" Also the Sentine | says ;
"IIe was listened to with marked attention by lis
audience-so much so, that lie had the eye and ear
of every one present except when urging his non
voting doctrines. For them. our people have SO
little sympathy that they will not listen to them
long. 1t is a pity thet such mastery eloquence
cannot be more practically directed"
1t seems to US Il sad pity that men have not the
patience to listen to the deductions of "almost I'M
exceptionable logic" Why is it that according to
their own confession they 'have no sympathy
with the logical and common sense conclusion
that to abolish Slavery we should cease to give ii
support? That is "simply" the ''impracticability''
and folly which Mr.. Burleigh and his associates arc
charged with.
