knit together by the sense OF common interest,
common danger; they live on the labor Of others
and have more leisure for politics than their fel
low citizens they are accustomed TO- rule and the
non.siaveholders TO submit; they are IN constant
communication, and understand each other; while
thetr domestic adversaries are mainly humble iso
lated and down.trodden.. II every man In the
slave States dare speak what he thinks, slavery
would soon totter to its fall Among the delegates
from slave States 70 the late Peoples Convention At
philadelphia was Nj. J. G. Underwood Of Clarke
County, Virginia, who made . briefspeech thereat,
evincing his devotion to the common cause Tgav-
cling ieisureiy home ward after the adjournment of
the Convention, he was met At Washington by In.
telligence thai his attendance and remarks 40 del
egase had greatly incensed his neighbors and
caused fierce excitement throughout the county,
and that he must not venture to return to his hone
Finding on inquiry that there was no mistake In
this information. he stopped At Washington and
sent friend Gen. Francis Il. Spinner, NJ. g.,
from Hsrkimer county Ia this State) for his fami
". Gen. Spinner started last Friday mornings
noble way ofspending the Fourth of Jnly-and re-
turned the next evening with Mr.. Underwoods
family"
Another hullabaloo is also raised about George
Bye, Of Shenandoah county, who was one OF the
Vice Presidents of the Black Republican Conven
ton, and who was warned by . meeting of the
citizens Of that county that in the event he shall
continue to agitate the subject of slavery in their
midst, they will take steps to maintain their rights
and secure their community against the dangerous
consequences OF such misconduct"
Now, 1t 80 happens that the counties in which
this fierce excitement" against the Black Repab-
licans was manifested, are by no means among
the principal slsveholding counties in Virginia
Clarke county has but 5000 slaves. Shenandoah
county, where such general indignation WAS man
ifested against Mr.. Rye, Is . Western Virginia
county, and, within its wide and populous borders
has but Gil slaves. This statement sufficiently
shows that the reign Of terror which the nom
sensica Greedy pirates about, has existence save
in his own cracked skull and of course, no infu-
snce In the manifestations of public sentiment to-
wards Underwood and Rye.
The truth Is, as Greedy probably knows the pee
pie Of the South unit upon all quessons &C n
nected with slavery. There are no men among
them Of whom Underwood and Rye would be
proper representatives. The disgusting farce Of
picking up half dozen stray emigrants from free
to slave States, and pronouncing them delegates
from Virginia, Kentucky, &C., could scarcely have
been expected to deceive any sane person There
are no more incorporating enemies of abolition
ism than the people of Western Virginia, aud the
non-slayeholders generally of the Commonwealth. |
1t is not necessary that man should own proper

5g M. de Sartiges.
This brilliant, unique and original ambassador,
who, it is said, exhausted every possible argument
to convince Monsieur Marcy that the dismissal of
Mr.. Champion necessarily involved war with Eng
land, and mysteriously limited to somebody or 9th.
II that his own residence in Washington might be
brief, has, according to correspondent of the N.
Y. Herald, waited upon the American Secretary
since the refusal of the British government to dis
miss Mr.. Dallas congratulatng him upon his sue
GEES, and insisting that he was the greatest of lv
ing diplsmats and more than match for both Cla
rendeu and Palmerston. We presume that the
American Premier is as Indifferent to the fattery
to the insolence Of this versatile Frenchman,
requiring but little dipIomstic penetration to per-
ceive that Monsieur de Sartiges is a grand hum
bug. 80, 3.vgs..s las
The correspondent of the Herald appears to be
COMPOUNDED at the amazing and audacious expert
ness of Sartiges in turning somersets. Did any
one expect stability or sincerity in this volatile
and diplomatic Gauif 1t part Of his trade and
policy to frown when he feels like smiling, and to
smile when he would frown. 1t is too late, how
ever, fer Sartiges to play such shallow tricks
The American people have noted, and will not
soon forget the evident and intense soicitatude of
The French Embassy in this country to embroil
United States in q war with England, IA war
which would have thrown both countries behind
the asea quarter of century, and left France
the mistress of the world. IT British squadrons |
are not now bombarding our towns, and sweeping
bur commerce from every sea, If oceans Of Amer
lean treasure and blood are saved, no thanks to
the representative in America of Louis Napoleon
In word, the French government, by stirring up
'srife between England and this country, has can
seled all the obligations we are under to France
for her friendship in our Revolutions whilst the
British people, by sternly refusing to be coled or
jusgled by France into such . war, and manifest.
ing the most fraternal sentiments tow ards Ameri.
ca, have sblitarated the last trace Of hereditary
rancor against England which the struggle of the
Revolution had naturally engendered Hence
forth, : war with England will be unpopular in
his country, and war with France just the re-.
verse. fs Il
We perceive that the master Of NJ de Sartises
has bestowed upon that parsonage the cross of the
Grand legion Of Honor, which is regarded bv
,erns q m approval of his ministerial course IN
his country by the Emperor of France. We
know not how the Frenchman has distinguished
hinssh herr, except by his expertness in shoot
ing cats and rats In Georgetown.
