The Cincinnati He'll and Everess
Netting.


The second edition of the BELL and EVER
EFT meeting at Cincinnati came off Friday
night Hon J. SCOTT HARRISON presided, and
speeches were made by Hon. L. D. CAMPBELL,
JAS. H. THOMPSON, Esq, and Hon. OSCAR F.
MOORE, OF Ohio, and Col. wv. FINNELL, OF
Kentucky. The meeting was largely attend
ed and the demonstration was altogeth-
er imposing and spirit stirring. The ringing
of bells and the shouts of the multitude were
deafening. One of the most pleasing Incl
dents of the meeting was torch light pro-
cession of Kentuckians from Covington.
The following are the resolutions which
were adopted:
Rasotved, That the nomination made by the
Constitutional Union Convention, of the Hon.
John Bell and the Hon Edward Everett, for
the Presidency and Vice Presidency of the
United States meet with our most sincere and
unaffected approval, and we heartily ratify
the same, and now publicly pledge ourselves
to adhere to them faithfully whatever may
betide; and disclaiming all sympathy with,
and rejecting all alliance and connection
with any and every sectional idea and organ
iZation, and with an eye single to the glory
and serenity OF our country, we Snail give
them our AID, and exert for them our most
ardent and active enei gies SO long az the can
vass continues.
RESOLVED, That we regard the nomination
of these distinguished citizens as most auspi-
cious, if not Providential, and by their tried
and fervid patriotism. aud their great ability
and experience in public affairs, they are pc
culiarly fitted to lead the honest masses of
the people olt of the wild tumult aud agita-
ton of the times, to prominent conquest
over the faction leaders now engaged in fu-
rious strife for the power and spells of Gov
eminent, each backed and sustained by an
unhallowed and sectional organization. Aud
to the end that we may be compactly united
and effective in our operations, we urgently
recommend 10 the State Central Committee
to call State Mass Convention forthwith of
the friends of Bell and Everett, to meet in
the city of Chillicothe on Thursday, the 10th
of August next. then and there to nominate
an Electoral ticket for the State, and toI per-
feet State organization.
And we further recommend to the people
of this city and county, irrespective of par
ty, who are willing to unite with us in a
county Convention, at such time as may be
agreed upon, in Cincinnati. to nominate
Union county ticket and candidates for Com
gress; and we further recommend toaour
friends in every county and Congressional
District in the State to follow our example.

5- The Uis,on and American affects to
think that Mr. BELLS friends are running
him in the present national race, with a view
to secure his election to the Senate OF the
United States by the next Legislature. and
not with any hope of elccting him President.
This is an exceedingly singular notion. The
Baltimore Convention which nominated Dir.
BELL, on th. second ballot, was composed
of delegates from most of tie States OF the
Union. who. according to the suppos.tion OF
oar contemporary, all Joined in scheme to
make Mr.. BELL a United States Senator from
Tennessee, A. incredible as the idea may
appear. our ncighbcr is evidently sincere.
We are surprised that that he cannot sec
anything in the cause of great party,
struggling in all the States of the Union. TO
maintain the Constitution, praserve the Union
and uphold and enforce the laws, above the
idea and object Of procuring the election of
a man to the [. S Senate! The thought is
so manilestIy absurd that it is scarcely pos
sible to treat it seriously.

The Boston Slave Trade,

The news We print in another column, from
Bermada, shows that some of Mr.. Charles
Summers constituents have been again caughi
in the slave trade. According to testimony
which seems to be perfectly reliable, the
American brigantine Virginia. four dya,s from
Boston. got ashore on the rocks. The good
people of Bermuda lost no time in extrieat-
ing her from her peiilous posiiion,-but made
the discovery, at the same time, that the Vir-
ginia was bound to the Coast of Africa, for
a cargo of negroes. Tie proof 10 the end,
appearing to be conclusive, Her Britannia
Majesty's gunboat SkiPJack took possession
of her asa lawful prize.
This is not the FIST, nor the second. nor
the third SLAYER that has cleared from Boston
within the past few months, to engage IN the
African slave trade. Mr.. Charles Sumner
represents these Massachusetts slave-traders
in the United States Senate. Mr.. Charles
SIMMER Is in condition of chronic trib1la-
| ton over slave trading and slave traders in
Alabama, Georgia, and the Carolinas.-
though We cannot recall an instance of a
single we'll authenticated clearance from
any of those States, for slave trading yoy-.
age to the Coast of Africa. We cannot thus
See. the utility, or the expediency. or the con-
sistency or the honesty of Mr., Charles Sum-
ner keeping his .'eye" constantly fixed on
the ''South," while the slave trade is in fnll
blast right under that eye and that nose, at
the East. Since tie adjournment of Con-.
gress, Mr.. Charles Sumner has been hawking
about this part of the country sophomore
cal Grafton upon the .'Barbarism of Slavery,
at the rate OF '.twenty five cents admission"
-but, as we are not appriZed that our New
England friends have been favored as yet
with n repetition of it, we respectfully sug-
gest that that Mr.. Charles Sumner be invited
to deliver an address upon the "Barbarism of
Slavery and Slave Trading in Boston, at
as carly day as his health will permit with
practical illustrations just received from Ber-
muddy. i. Express.

We find the above sentence in a letter
written On the 18th of this month: and
published amongst, the proceedings OF a
BRECKENRIDGE ANCEY meeting in New York.
Who could have written it Alb, reader,
yeu- could not, if your life were at stake,
guess the man. You think it mnst be some
one renowned for his public virtues, for
his devotion to the Institutions Of his
country, for his respect and reverence for
the rights of the people, and all those at
tributes which constitute the glory of great,
and good. and beloved leader and states
man. But. you are vastly mistaken. In
the writer of the sentence you will recog
nize the converse of the picture. You will
recognize party chief, whose career has
been almost exclusively one of intrigue
and management to crafty his own ambi-
tions aspirations, aud with that view TO
build up and strengthen party. to crush
out independent thought and action, whose
later years have been made notorious by
successful attempt to convert the govern
ment into an engine of oppression and
tyranny, and who will close his political
life in the midst of al epoch of corruption
such as has never before stained the annals
of our country. In a word, you viii recog-
nize the head of the late democratic party

- Our acknowledgements are due to
very many friends in this and adjoining
States for their words of compliment, APP
probation and encouragement on the con-
duct of the PATRIOT. Within the past
month or six weeks we have had so many
of those expressions conveyed to US in pri-
vate letters, that we know not how to re-
ply but by renewed Cxertions to justify
them. We trust that the latent spark of
vanity which is said 10 slumber in the
bosomS of all men, will not be ignited in
ours by the handsome thoughts that may
lie entertained, and the complimentary words
that may be said Of Us. We rather think
it is more the noble and glorious cause,
which we are defending and striving to
make paramount in the national admins
tration, than our own powers, that enlists
the popular heart and inspires our friends
to exalt our merits. While thanking them
for their generous confidence, good opinions
and kindly sympathy and encouragement,
we can only pledge them that, with the in
creased facilities we now enjoy, we viii
still further task cur energies and industry
to make the PATRIOT worthy of all that has
or may be said in commentator of it.

Mr.. Pool closed up with an eloquent ap-

s-The Constitutional Union party, at
the head of whose serried ranks waves the
glorious standard of BELL and EVERETT, is
assaied most fercely by the disuniOnists of
the South and the fanatics Of the North. The
extreme YANCEY- BRECKINRIDGE men oppose
it because they know its success would block
their reasonable game Of disunion; while
the free-soilers ard incoTrigible abolitionists
oppose it because they know that its success
would destroy their hopes of power, and an
initiate their evil designs upon the equality
of the States. These two facts. thus simply
stated, constitute one Of the strongest argu-
ments that all men true to the Union and the
interests of all sections alike, and who op-
pose the secessionsts on the one hand, and
the fanatical sectionalists on the other, to
unite on BELL and EVERETT, for the prestrva-
ton of the Union and the assertion of the
true principles of the Constitution.

~The greatest want of The couutry at

dispute and agitation; aHI If We are to con-
tinue united, friendly and prosperous people

one of the four candidates for the Presidency,
would tend to secure peace, and that one is

The democratic leaders have thought so
long, and talked so much, on the subject of
slavery. they appear to regard the masses of
the party as slaves to do their bidding,
without rewonstrance. In this campaign for
the Presidency they will find that freedom of
speech and action are things which the masses
many of them, at least-intend to assert
and maintain.

Hon DANIEL S. DICKINSON, the Hard leader
caved in last fall, and, with his supporters,
conferred with the Softs in Convention at
Syracuse. This ominous alliance produced
the Delegation which represented the State
of New York in the Observation-Disclosures
democratic Convention. What sort of off
spring that was, let some of our BREcKIN-
RIDGE-YANCEY friends say. The conduct of
the delegation did not please Mr.. DICKINSON,
and he is ashamed of his position as sire. In
o speech last week in New York city, he dis
inherited his bantling, and declared war
upon the Sofss. Here is the declaration.

cessful, because of the bad conduct of this

have been crowded with complete success but
for them, kfOr the ranks OF the party had
closed up, and the masses hailed a deliver
ance from internal division and strife, as a
proud day IN their countrys hlstury. But,
they have torn open again its wounds to sub
serve their own selfish schemes, and now let
division be the order of the day until these
faithless political gamblers are driven
without the pale of the democratic party
forever. So totally abhoired they are, that
We shall sooner attain success without than
with them, and we have proved now, to the
satisfaction of all, how vain the attempt for
a party to repose upon such rotten -founda-
tons, and hereafter their power will not be
courted, nor their necessities rewarded by
democratic administrations. No, shall here
after make no effort for union where they are
to be recognized, but war upon any faction,
under their treacherous rule, and nothing
but faction will follow their lead.
