PUTMAN'S MAGAZINE.

The October number of this excellent magazine
is received. On our first page will be found an
admirable article on the Kansas Question,
which we extract from its columns, tprobably
from the pen of Parke Goodwin and which we
hope not one of our readers will be deferred from
perusing on account of its length. 1t is quite q
point gained when an American magazine car

Compromises" and instead of indulging in the
usual fulsome and senseless laudation Of 'oul
revolutionary flthers," clG utter freely its convic

manly course to settle the slavery contest at tn,
beginning, instead Of postponing it till that insti
tuition should grow and strengthen to its presen
enormous dimensions and power, We cannot hell

1t was reported in somes of the papers that the
Society Ia Montague Che old, well-known and
hishly Influential association of French Republi-
cans m this city, had countenanced this meeting,
and that the ever.vigilent and sagacious Col,
Forbes was present, but 10th these statements are
expressly cdntradicted by Golf. in a letter pub
helcd in The Times.
At the very moment when Mr.. Saunders plot
tings in the interest Of the slave power are cxcit
ing our disgust and demanding exposure, 10 oui
attention is arrested by toe voice OF kossuth, who

Saunders surrounded us with both in public anO
private life, while in London. With the domestic
party struggles OF the United states, anu with tht
opinions attached to them, we have nothing to do
but we know what he has been to us, and we know
what we have lost by his recall a fact we do no
cease to lament-a fact that has not boen without
influence and certainly o very sad influence upor

Cabinet diplomacy Of Europe that neither the Re

THE METHoDIsTs AND SLAvERY.-At the late
meeting of the Rock River Conference in this State,
the question of slavery came up. A correspondent
of the Press writes
"a report was offered from the Committee on
Slavery, in which was a resolution requesting the
next General Conference to insert in the discipline
a statute making Shareholders ineligible to mem
bership in the church.
Many amendments to the report were offered.
The general feeling was that the repors did not go
far enough. The whole afternoon session yes
terday was spent in debate, without coming to a
vote. a sani o ff
This morning the report was taken up again,
when DR.. Dempster offered an amendment that the
church, as well as those wishing to join.
cater somo debate, the report, with this amend
ment, was adopted"
This indicates progress IN the right direction,

TESTIMONIAL TO PASSMORE WILLIAM.
SON.
70 the Editor Of The N. Y. Tribune.

~ nv 'SN'tNf - q ~ ss 4
SIR: beg to propose, through your columns, 10
the people of the Free States Of this Union that
they unite in presenting to Mr.. Passmorc William
son a substantial and durable Testimonial Of the
admiration they feel for his patient and magnaui-
nous endurance Of the grosscst wrong which was
ever inflicted by a legal functionary upon an Amer
lean citizen.
Mr.. Williamson, ! presume, is not in circum-
stances to need pecuniary compensation for his in
~iquitous Imprisonment, nor is he the man to accept
a pecuniary reward for doing his duty nor would
he be pleased with q testimonial of the kind which
grateful passengers are in the habit of presenting
TO polite captains Of ships.
| suggest, therefore, that n sum of money be
raised by subscription for the purpose Of founding
in the City of Philadelphia an Institution for the
benefit of colored people, to be cal'ei by the name
of Kanes heroic victim, and its nature and objects
to be designated by him, Mr.. Williamson is prob
ably as well acquainted with the wants and condi-
ton of the colored population Of Philadel phia rs
any other Of its citizens, and it would doubtless
be deeply gratifying to Linn to he the means OF
rendering them the service they most require.
The WILLIAMSON INSTITUTION would be at once His
reward and his monument, as well as n standing
rebuke to the abusers Of power.
1t this suggestion should We approved of and n
proper eommitte named for carrying itout, | can.
not doubt that a very handsome sum win be
promptly contributed for the object proposed.

with q spade, and finally hung her. We learn that
Mrs. B. ~confesses to the killing. bat AYERS that il
was done in selfdefcuce. She has been arrested
and the affair was to have undergone a Judicial
examination yesterday. Our informant says Mrs
B. is rather a good looking woman, and appears to
be about thirty years Of age. IL the circumstance
of the murder are such as stated to our informant
they are perhaps without u parellel ia atrocity in
the criminal annals of the State. For the sakC
of humanity, we hope they are misrepresented.-

The Enquirer is making a great bug-a-boo abou
Negro Suffrage, and charges Mr.. Chase with being
in favor Of changing the Constitution, to permit
negroes to vote. We have authority for saying
that Mr.. Chase never expressed any desire to have
the Constitution changed in respect to this subject
nor does he wish to have it changed.
We find the foregoing in the Cincinnati Gazette
one if the accredited organs of the Republican
party, for this State. We do not know what the
authority" of the Gazette may be, but il it is Mr.
Chase, or if such announcements are made with
his conniyance, his nomination was certainly one
