AmenGe Honorable.

While the Kansas Nebraska bill was
pending in Congress, the Hon. John
NJ. Bolts took decided and bold ground
against it. The editor of the Richmond
Wing, who then denounced Mr.. Bolts
in terms of unmeasured, severity, is
now satisfied that opposition to the bill
was wise and right; and publicly frank
ly and Internationally apologies for
and retracts all expressions Of a harsh
character which he applied to Mr..
Bolts during tho memorable contro-
versy. This course is highly honorable
to the Whig,and especially compliment
tary to Mr.. Bolts political sagacity.

lately in Southern opinion upon the

E8- Cooper, Of the Clarksbure r

E3~ Cooper, Of the Clarksburg Re-
gistor, would like to fix the charge of
ubollttontsm upon US, by what he calls
circumstantial evidence" Suppose
We accuse him in like manner:
Cooper has been trotting in harness
with Brucn, ergo, he's a Bear!
But what is the circumstantial ev-
idcnce' in our case? Simply declaring
that " the whole thing" of the negro
oscapade, was distasteful to us. -
Well it was; and so it must strike any
sensible man. Look at it:
1. The enticing away of women and
children from comfortable homes, for
winter flight to Canada, under the lead
Of a desperate, who urged one of the
blacks to clash away her child, or
they would all be taken" That was
distastcful to us; and so doubtless it
was to Him who said, "pray that your
flight be not in the winter"
.. The base and cowardly desortion
of Col. Armstrong, IN ertrenlis, by tho
pursuing, or, as it turned out, the pur-
sued party, is decidedly distasteful to
US. Is it otherwise to you, Cooper?
3. Those mangling gashcs Of the
corn-cutter were distasteful, we know,
to our friend, Col. Armstrong, in whose
sufferings we sincerely and kccnly SYM
pathiscd.
4. The duplicity Of certain persons
across the line, who have oily words
for masters and material aid for fugi-
tlycs, is distasteful to US.
Now, Cooper, if you would not bear
false witness against your ncighbor,
copy this article, and then drop the
subject, and mind your own business
Be- Once for all, on this species of
'llifcation. The charge that we arc
an ab0litiOnist won't lie, though every
one who makos it does. In Chester
county, Pa, (wherc we spent twelve
years among tho Quakers,) we were a
members and manager Of a Colonial
ton Society -tho antipodcs of aboli-
tlonlsm, and We still believe it would
DO blessing to both races if the last
negro were coloniacd in Africa.

in persuading them that they had only
stolen some most excellent rum.

The PRESIDENTS MEssAGE.-Tho
Washington correspondent of the Balti.
more American writes as follows, on
Friday last; p.
The rough draft Of the message was
completed last night, and will be pre-.
scented to the Cabinet to-day, more for
forms sake than for substance. Mr..
Buchanan has not yet introduced the
practice of really consulting his Cabi-
net, and while ceremonial is sometimes
observed, Of submitting O State paper
or State question, it is only with q
view Of extracting favorable estimate
of his own production or policy. This
fact is as well known here as that the
White House stands on the bank of
the Potomac, and by mono so we'll as
the gentlemen who mcekly encourage
this exclusion, while drawing tho pay
and holding the position Of Cabinet
officers. There is no doubt but mod,
