There has been some curiosity to know
what is represented in politics by the New
York Daily Worl: We find in the Charles
ton Courier something to satisfy this curiosi,
ty. One of the editors Ct the World las in-
troduced himself by letter to the Charleston
plotters of treason, and liberal extracts from
his letter have been published. In this docu-
ment the position of the World is defined as
follows You are at liberty to say that not
one Of the editors Of the World roted for Lincoln,
and its publisher WOULD HAVE NO HESITATION
IN OWNING SLAVES" This remarkable dec.
laration of principles should not be hid under
a bushel. There fore we give it the aid of our
Giro MA ion.

,,,E PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.


Nearly half the presidents message is de-
voted TO the questions that now disturb the
southern states. He begins with n vicious
statement OF the slavery question, makes a
good argument against secession, declares that
he must enforce the laws in South Carolina,
and every where else, but deals rather gingerly
with the coercion question, and recommends
that the federal constitution lie amended so as
to make it endorse the bred Scott decision,
protect slavery in the territories, and sane
ton the fugitive slave bill. His statement
of the Kansas question, TOO, is vicious,
and he fails 10 recommend the admission Of
that new state into the Union. But we must
for the present leave the message to speak
for itself At another time we shall have
something more to say of it.

"THE PRAYER OF THADDEUs HYATT to
James Buchanan, President of the United
States in behalf of Kansas" is the title of a
pamphlet just published in Washington. 1t
includes a number OF letters and affidavits,
showing forth the destitute condition of Kan.
sas and the real misery which exists the-e. In
concluding appeal TO President Buchanan,
Mr.. Hyatt says:
Seeing that tile press of the country will
do nothing eiiectual tor them at this fearful
crisis seeing that only extraordinary remedies
can reach SO extraordinary case / come to
your Excellency as the proper source, and ask
Tor some official aclion, / care not what it u.s.
so that speedy relief may reach multitude Of
starving American citizens even though they
cannot vote
"Your ExeeIency can surely get these
dreadful facts before the country in way to
awaken sympathy and insure aid. though |
am powerless to do it. And this is nv PRAYER.
But if the Executive OF this great nation
should, in his better judgement and broader
knowledge, see no way for him TO succeed
where an humble citizens has failed, / shall
theh nave but one resource left / can make
only one effort more. But this must make.
Ior hsfing moved thus far aud awakened the
expectations OF the starving, il is impossible
that should now desert them until The last
promise las faded from the heavens until nv
own heart with theirs has utterly died nm;
One last hope femnins it is that ti,, ueonle ~
another government, and in another hemis
phere may take compassion upon stnryin,,
Americans, rs in former ears Of misfortone
Americans took compassion upon them"

The "Unon men" who mobbed the meeting
of the abolitionists, in Boston, last Monday,
adopted IL series of characteristic resolutions,
among which was the following -
"That the people Of this city have submitted
too long i'll allowing irresponsible persons and
political demagogues of every description to
hold public meetings to disturb the public
peace, and misrepresent us abroad they have
become nuisance, which, in self defence, we
are determined shall henceforward be summa-
rily abated."
This resolve speaks for itself and will hardly
need an Interpretation anywhere. The Boston
Courier, however, hastens to explain it in
such a manner as to leave no doubt OF its
meaning on any mind. We learn from the
Courier that this resolve contcmplatcs a sup.
preston OF the republicans, as well as the
abolitionists That incendary sheet has the
following impotent menace
''No such assembly for that or any similar
purpose is very likely to be held in any con.
spicuous place in Boston again Nor do we
believe that our citizens will listen hereafter,
as they have hitherto done, TO the fierce ii
rades of Phillips and lis crew, 10 the empty
pLdtitudeS Of Sumner, or the insolent brdrddo Of
wilson"
That is TO say. eve constitutional union
men in Boston, we who profess like stupid
hypocrites that our ruling passion is to enforce
the laws we have suppressed a meeting
of abolitionists, and we intend to go on until
we have suppressed all such republicans as
Charles Sumner and Henry Wilson" 1t is
impossible to say what the Courier and its
Il +la,-
as they are malignant. While there is toler.
ance enough in Massachusetts to protect the
free speech of the Boston Courier, Caleb Cush
ing and their particular friend Yancey the dis,
union traitor, we shall not despair of liberty
within our borders. No Interruptions of it
can be permanent, even though the Courier
sort of Union men" should all make it their
sole business to mob public meetings for the
next ten years.

PRIZE FIGHT.-A fight for prize of $1,000
came off near South Berwick, Me-, yesterday
forenoon, between Augustus Fitzpatrick of
Providence, r. l., ard James O'Neil of this
city, the former being the challenger. About
three hundred spectators were present chiefly
from Boston, Providence, Manchester, and
Worcester, who went from Boston in an extra
train over the Boston and Maine railroad, ear.
ly yesterday morning, arriving upon the
ground, seventy five miles from Boston, and
nine or ten miles from any village, at about
seven O'Clock. AT twelve minutes past eight
o'clock, every preliminary arrangement being
completed, both parties entered the ring, nc
companied by their seconds, and both appeared
in excellent condition. Sixty eight rounds
were fought, lasting four hours and nineteen
minutes, the longest time ever made in
this country. The first round lasted for
twenty two minutes, and the second round
one hour and twenty minutes, O'Niel having
the best of it at the end of both The first
blood was drawn by O'Neil, and the first
knock down was made by him, although both
fought well through the whole When they
had fought four hours, the friends of both par.
ties desired TO have the match withdrawn, but
the contestants and seconds insisted on fight
ing it out. On the last (G8th) round, O'Neil
got Fitzpatrick by the leg, which was declared
by the referee to be q foul blow" and this
ended the game, in favor of Fitzpatrick Both
contestants left the field in good spirits, neither
appearing much damaged.
O'Nel and Fitzpatrick are both about the
same age, q, the former weighing about 1852
pounds, and the latter 154. The latter is
about two inches the tallest

BURNING OF CoTToN FAcToRY.-The
'od cotton factory" of L. S. Pratt & Co., in
Nortliborough, was destroyed, with its con.
tents, by fire, Monday evening. The factory
was about forty feet wide by sixty feet long,
three stories high above the basement, which
was occupied as machine shop. There was
insurance on the building and machinery to
the amount of about $4,000, 81 500 Of
which was in the Traders Mutual Of Boston.
The factory was built about forty years ago,
and consequently was one of the oldest in the
state. 1t was remodcled and put in thorough
repair last spring, and gave employment tO
fifty or sixty operatives, who are thrown out

character, which did not occur in Conn

Senate Chamber. While the Compromise
measures were nnder discussion in 1850,
ON the 18th day of April, 1880, Mr.. Footo,
slave master from Mississippi, in tho
course of his remarks, commenced per-
