ABUSE OF THE PARDoNNa PowER.-Gov. Clark, of
New York, during his term of office, pardoned $50
criminals, and Gov Seymour 465. This is altogeth-
er worthy of New York. Of late years sickly SEN
tlmentaHty seems to have possessed the Northern
public mind. and no where has it operated more in.
juriously than in New York and Massachusetts,
These Governors, (and especially Gov Clark have
been influenced by sort of instructive, impu'sive
benevolence, and have thus done injustice to the
immunity generally. No such wholesale turning
loose of criminals in the Southern States
Our society is in every respect more conservative
than society is in the free States virtue is more
surely and adequately rewarded, and vice more cer
ainly punished. Another result of this sicky sen.
timentality is to be in the abolition, by many
of the free States, of the death punishment for cap
tai fclones 1t distresses the delicate anti-savery
mind to see murderer hanged by the neck until he
is dead. In England and in the Southern States the
law of Moses in this respect is executed to the let
ter, however painful it may be to those whose duty
it is to deal with the criminal. We trust that this
may be always So and that the Southern States may
long be shielded from the injurious influences of the
scky sentimentality and the isms which infest and
afct what is boastfully denominated free society,"

ANOTHER New SrATE.-Arrangements, it is said,
making to form State out Of the northeast cor
ner of Michigan, under the name Of Superior. Mich
igan agrees to the surrender Of that part of her
territory which lies without the peninsula, and
Wisconsin consents to part with that portion Of her
territory, which lies the shore Of the great lake;
besides which Minnesota must yield corner of her
territory Immediately adjoining. A memorial pre-
sentng the advantages of this scheme is already
preparing for Congress. We give this statement as
we find it in the papers. No State can thus be
formed without the consent of Congress. But sup
pose-what is highly improbable-that Congress
should consent, the State thus erected would be
sovereign-and what power would there be, in case
she should refuse to ask admission to compel her to
come into the Union?

that they will not be published as the evidence was
