JOHN NJ. BoTTs.-This gentleman is bitterly
denounced by the Democratic press and speakers
"a an abolitiouist In September, 1850, no de-
livered an address at the State Agricultural Fair
of New Hampshire, of which the following Is an
extract: "No, gentlemen! what all sensible and
rejecting men in the South will expect and de-
mapd is, that whenever there is violation of
the fugitive slave law, or resistance is made to
the execution of the law, or the slave is rescued
from the custody of the officer, that the offender
or offenders against the law shall be suitably
and properly punished and if the State will not
pass such laws as will provide for the case, Con-
grsss naust. : If you think the law
is ia conflict with the constitution, your remedy
is to appeal to the Supreme Court of the United
States. If they shall decide the law to be I'M
constitutional, we of the South aoitL submit; and
if thew shall decide that it is constitutional goa
must be made to su5mit" These do not look
like the sentiments OF an anti-slayery man. And

From THE PARAGUAY ExPEDITIoN-A letter
to the Philadelphia Ledger, dated ''Port of Ros-
ario. January 6, 1859" says;
We have cleaned nothing here from Para
puy. A small steamer, the "Salto de Agus,
came in on the Srd, from Assuncion, and sailed
shortly after our arrival, for Buenos Ayres; yet,
we could learn nothing further of the intentions
OF His Excellency, President Lopez. Il appears
her officers had some dread OF the hllousters,
for we understood they doubted for time tue
propriety of flying their national ensign yer
tain it is, she passed US faster than ever steamer
went before. She is one of the four steamers Vi

On the Upper Paraguay. Ny informant, who

names of no other vessels, and doubted If there
were any. -
As far as | can learn, the sentiment prevails
here that everything will be amicably arranged,
md that we will soon wend our way home
The Argentine people have not ooJected, as we
thought probable, to our passage through thel'
dominions; and although they stare outrageous
" at the Norte Anericos1l0s, | do not believe
they are much interested in the result OF our
