:"WAlKiSG PAPERs.p-Our friends at Wadcs-

the last week held a meeting aRd with salts
factory evidence before them, came to the con
clnsion that a man named Anderson, was a
dangerous man to the community, that he was
an aboIi,onist, that he had been tampering
with negroes, and that he had been expressing
his, abolition sentiments rather too freely
Upon these grounds, they passed a resolution
that he should leave the town within given
space of lime; he did leave, and passed
through this place on his way to somewhere.
That's the way to act. We cannot be too
vigilant but should every man act, sentinel

in every shape and form, and the sooner we
are rid of them the better. Keep the ball a

of the features OF the Code respectfully submit.
foT the consideration of those who think they do
right in defending this book of modern improve
ment, the annexed extracts from Chap o., which
treats Of executions
Page Isl says: - There shall be three kinds of
execution-one against the property OF the judg-
ILent debtor, one against his person, and one for
the delivery OF the possession Of real or personal
property, or such delivery, with damages for
withholding the same. -
Page 3Si 7" In (the executon) be against the
body Of the jndynent debtor, it shall require the
Marshal TO arrest such debtor, and commit him
10 jail until he shall pay the Judgment or be dis
charged according 10 law -
Page 3g2: "The execution against the body
shall be served by arresting the DEFENDANT and
unless discharged by due course of law, commit
ting him TO jail "
IL the code, in this connection does not revive
imprisonment for debt, then I must plead that
kind Of stupid ignorance of the letter OF the law
which disqralifss me from cast ny my vote either
way My object in this communication IL ayow-
edly for the benefit Of bsnighted humanity and
III some ardent friend of the code will endeayor
To remove my suspicious, it may result, possibly,
IN securing one more vote. I will not say that 10
