AMERICAN TRAVELLERS IN EUROPE.-We are in
formed that during the three years of Mr.. Buchan-
ans administration, the Department of State has
issued about eighteen thousand passports to citi-
zens desiring to travel in foreign parts This num-
Der does not represent the whole number of trave-
lers, because man takes only passport for him
self and his wife and children. We suppose that it
would be safe to say that at least eight thousand
people 60 annually from the United States to Eu-
rope. Most of them persons who have money
in abundance, and who expend it quite freely.
THE FUGITIvE SLAVE LAVA new flaw has been
found in the Fugitive Slave act. In the case
of Lewis W. Weld, on trial before the United
States District Court at Leavenworth, Kansas, for
assisting in the rescue of a Kentucky slave, last
fall, from the hands of guardian Of the children
to whose estate the slave belonged Judge Petit has
decided that the indictment does not hold because
the fugitive law does not authorize pursuit and
reclamation by guardian. lie saws there is no
provision for recovering slaves owned by minors,
which is very singular omission.

The Bergen tunnel will soon be completed.
Thursday the workmen succeeded in dislodging $50

Belgian pavement. The work in three shafts is
completed, and the workmen are about ready to

dents, &c. 1t is generally conceded that the cars
will be running through the tunnel in about six
months time.

Tho N. Y. Tribune, in an article on the Presi-
deucy, gives the following cogent reasons why
Bates should receive the Chicago nomination.
If, then, our Convention shall decide that it
cannot safely nominate Seward OIL Chase, We hold
with due submission, that the man for the hour is
Bates of Missouri. Mr.. Bates is COM
mended to our judgment, because, while essential

fed with the Republican party, and is not exposed
to the unjust prejudices which ~incessant misrep-
resentation has excited against our veteran lead
ers. Born, reared, and always residing in a Slave
State, il will be morally impossible to make any
body believe that he meditates disunion as a
means of getting rid of Slavery. or that his cleo
ton would result in disunion. A practical Eman'

ten allege, that they hold slaves from necessity
that they would gladly get rid of their slaves, il
they could. This is all hypocrisy. Let these men
get toto debt, and their creditors will very soon
find a way TO relieve them of their slaves. Morei
over. every STAKEHOLDER has the power to carry
his slaves to a free state, or he can give them a
pass and they will 60 themselves without his help!
Hence. the idea of holding slaves from necessity,
is exactly parallel with getting drunk from neces-

either case, or in any suppOsatle case; results
simply from the desire Of the individual TO per-

TEE ATLANTIC MoNrnLY.-The March number
of this periodical is on hand in good season, and
its contents are nowise inferior to those Of its pre-
decessors. This work has established q national
reputation, and is received far nbove any other
monthly, as the exponent of American literature.
It's independence in morals contrasts ~favorably
with those magazines which carefully exclude
from their pages every sentiment which may be
supposed offensive to either Northern or Southern
conservatism. And though thrift! may follow
fawning," wo are glad to know that it also some.
times waits upon the free thought freely spoken.

'PLEAst EkcuANGE."-We lately Received a
paper Published in Georgia, requesting an e1-
change, to which request we gladly acceede, 1t
came directed to the "Anti-Slavery Buglc, or any
other Republican paper" The Georgia editor has
probably discovered ere this that the Bugle being
an auti.slavery paper, it is, as a matter of ne
c~essity, not n Republican paper. We suppose he
desirs to see anti.slavery in what he would call its
worst phase, and therefore send him a paper which
advocates a dislution Of the Union as q duty on
she part of abolitionists, and as an eAectual
means for the abolition of slavery. As none of
our articles are copy righted. be is welcome to
tran sfer to his columns the most traitorous and
iucendiary matter he can gather from our pages,
and we assure him we are always prepared to
stand by, and defend our principles.

PROTECT HOVE LABoR,-The Pittsburgh Ga
xeHe, speaking Of a recent Republican State Con-
vention held in Pennsylvania, says:
''The enthusiasm for Gen. Cameron was un-
bounded, carrying all before it, and overshadow-
ing the claims of all his distinguished competitors.
Other prominent and able men had their friends,
but their feeble voice was drowned in the wild en-
thusiasm for Pennsylvania Favorite Son, the
embodiment of the principles of Protection to
Homo Labor, and the able and fearless representa-
tive man Of his party in his native State"
The protection to home labor spoken of above,
Is the protection given by a tariff to the labor OF
the whites, and not the protection to be given in
the form of wages to those who now toll with
out compensation.

SLAVE TRADE BETWEEN THE STATES

Charles Reemelin, Of Ohio, is publishing in the
Cincinnati Commercial notes OF u Southern Tour
he is now making, Attached to the train he was
on in Alabama were two car loads Of negroes, and
Mr.. r., writes:
We went forward to have u look at them, and a
sight met my eye neser to be forgotten. There
were some $50 negroes, young and old, meu, wo-
men and children, mothers of large families, sJme
alone, some surrounded by their offspring. Their
clothing WAS Of the most motley character, and the
gifts of fair white ladies Of cast OF bonnets and
gowns, and Of fine white gentlemen of worn out
hats and coats, were there to show that at parting
there was some material feeling. Abe negroes
came as the trader said. from Virginia and North
Carolina, from which region and Tennessee lOO,-
600 are taken South each year; at this time the
emigration amounts to 5000 a week. They we're
destined for the New Orleans slave market, where
HE trader expected to get $4,000 for every heal
thy, full grown negro. When | first entered the
car, a fntid stencil, like that Of a menngerie Of
monkeys, made me doubt for the frft time in my
life that the sleeping bodies before me belonged to
human beings, and had l not afterwards heard
them talk and seen them exhibit their attributes
and propensities, my noeo would have taken
Judgement by default. Some among them looked
Just as if imported from Africa. They were nearly
naked, and seemed unable to reply to questions
put to them. The conductor frankly admitted
that negroes, whom be could not mistake to BIZ
slaves directly from Africa, did frequently CONF
on their road; that 200 such came the week prev
ious, and that 800 more were contracted for.
