The design Of Orr in going to New York was
to sound the city Democracy as to their dispo-
sition toward Southern Democrats of the Doug
las stripe. He means. if possible, to oyerbid
bis e1emplar for Northern votes. He Is O slip
perry politician, and recently declared that Doug
las had no more chance OF nomination from the
Charleston Convention than Martin Fan Buren,.
Yet short time ago be WAS one Of the warmest
Douglas men in Congress-. Crafty, selfish, and
perddious, Orr is scheming to take advantage
Of the prescription of his little friend to obtain
foothold at the North. His fraudulent and
sectional course Is Speaker Of the uouse will
stand but little in the way Of his pretensious.
for the Northern Democracy expect nothing
but cuffs from their Southern leaders, and ap-
pear gratiied when they get them. Brecken-
rldge is PLAYING the same game of abduction
with the Ant,Lecompton or Northern wing Of
his party, seeming confident that the Southern
ultras will eat themselves up in the coming
fight, as the Fogies of the North did in 1852.
There hare been Jet no positire preparations
made here to receive Douglas. 4 committee of
MARYLAND Democrats out Of Office hare invited
him to dinner in Baltimore. The answer has
not been made public.
An authentic account OF the causes of Lord
Napicr's removal from the mission to Washing
ton. has been furnished in letter from London,
which is attributed to Hon. Charles Sumner.
The letter is doubtless from au American gen
tleman Of high position, but Mr. Sumner is no.
i:s outbor 1t discloses tho important fact that
the British government will not tolerate in its
ministers here open sympathY and contraternity
With slave.trnders and dibnnionista- That is
the offence charged upon Lord Napier. II Is
also shown in this statement, that for several
years past, the slave'dEivers and the repudlators
Of the cotton States have been tempting the
Ministers of the British crown with offers Of cd
vautsRes in trade, ns the price Of their encour-
aeemen. TO plans for establishing on indepen.
dent Southern confederacT. These propositions
have been rejected, and the conspirators hare

With she detestation Of the world.
The assertion that Mr. Sumner procured the
recall Of ';ap:er is idle and reckless. 1t is not
improbable, indeed. that the Derby ministry
msy have asked Information from Mr. Sumner

that there is published in London weekly
