We have in various articles of late
showed that the Republican party were
the Abolitionist Party, and We scarcely
take up . paper bat what confirms that
opinion. They nominate avowcd Abo-
Etionists for Office, not only in Connec-
ticut but in other States. Seth Padel-
ford, the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor Of Rhode Island, 10 ao avowed
sympathizer With Brown, and an endors-
er Of the Helper book, and therefore an
advocate Of aggression upon our sister
States. But il this il not evidence
enough Of the fact, here 10 an extract
from the speech of Hon. Tbos. Davis
President Of the Convention which nom.
mated Mr.. Padelford:
"Twenty. five years ago, this anti-slav.
cry enterprise, this movement for, the
peace able abolition Of slavery, was com
mencsd in this country. = =
Until this time no hand had been raiseo
against tie slaue.Aolders BUT TO-DAY
A NEW PROPHET HAS APPEARED-A
PROPHET OF THE SWORD" (Tumultuou'
applsuse.) And again :-"I have little
hope that we shall not see our country
convulsed by the flow of the fraterna
blood Of our children !; there is no va,
to avoid it, but by absolute and devoted
adherence to the truth by tho people O
the North"

EE Before the great Victoria bridge
At Montreal was accepted of the con-
tractors, it was put to the severe test Of
. loaded train weighing the enormous
load Of one ton to the square foot which
it was difficult for three powerful loco
motives to drag along. While in the
first tube only, the DETECTION Of that
tube was seven-eighths Of an inch, the
adjoining empty tube being lifted in the
middle tbree-eighths. The load being
placed half over both tubes, the defect
ion was the same in each-three-fourths
Of an inch and when run wholly upon
the second tube, the result was the
reverse Of that in the first. The
final test was the long central span
$3.50 feet,) where the detection was on
~ one inch and three-eighths. In no
instance was the DETECTION greater than
fve-eigbths what it was expected.

W One Of our exchanges furnishes
an item which will be of intereet to all
who burn Goa, and who are so often trou-
bled with "clinkers" adhering to the
lining of the stove BY placing a little
line in into the stove, while the coal ia
ignited, the clinkers become loosened
and may readily removed without dan.
ger to tina lining. The remedy was pro-
badly suggested by the use of lime in
smelling iron ore, the chemical effect in
that case being to disengage the dross
and cinders from the pure metal. Oys-
ter shells will answer the same purpose,
though that article is not so convenient
ly in this latitude. Our readers are at
liberty to choose, however.

! Mr. McClernand proceeded 10 sustain his
assertion made Yesterday, that there was
no instance in which Congress had enact
ed special code TO operate in the organi-
zed Territories. The act of 1890 was gem
eral in its application and extended to
/ treason and other offences against the
United States. Congress by enacting a
/ Territorial government had delegated GER
tain powers so that the criminal became
amenable to the local law.
During a colioquy between Mr.. Farms
worth and Mr.. Clark, of Mo-, the former
said Johu Wesley spoke of slavery as the

Mr.. jenkins, of Va, enquired, do you

Mr.. Faruswortb was very much of that
opinion.
Mr.. Jenkins-Thep you declare lie.
Mr.. Fnrnsworth-T am not in the habit
of descending into cess pools to throw dirt
at blnckguards.
Mr.. Jenkins, his seat WAS understood
to say, can't receive that as an insult.

preamble and resolution setting forth that
VIM. Medill, comptroller of the Treasury,
had violated the practice of the depart
ment, in settling the post office accounts
and also the law and had therefore justly
incurred the disapprobatiou of Congress,
and that his conduct renders it improper
for him longer to continue in Office.
Mr.. Mason from the committee on For
eign Affairs. reported bill defraying the
expenses of the Japanese embassy on
their arrival in this country.
Mr.. johnson, of Tenn, wanted the home

The Indian appropriation bill came up
and the amendments of the Senate adhe-
red to. after which the bill was postponed
until Thursday.
The House homestead bill was taken up.
The pending amendment being the Senate
bill, Mr.. Fitch offered an amendment, that

of this bill, should he only those subject
to private entry at the passage OF the law.
Mr.. Wilkinson made a speech in favor of
the homestead bill. Adjourned.

LOUISVILLE, April 3.-Cassius II. Clay
published an appeal TO the people of
Madison county againstthc Revolutionary
Committee of that county, from whom he
escaped announcement by a small majOri-
t., last Tuesday, and who were to consid-
er his case again yesterday. He says he
advised Hanson and his associates to
leave; that he has discountenauced the
radicals, but if the Republicans are at
tackled they will defend themselves. His
appeal embraces a letter signed by Frank
Bland aud George Haley, in which they
say the troubles did not originate about
Hanson, but because George West, who
was sick with consumption, was maltrcnt-
ed, and Vests daughter insultcd with
gross language.
Mr.. Clay concludes: You may he strong
enough to ovcrpower me; you cannot
drive me from the duty which ] owe
to myself, to my friends, and to my
country; if fall I shall not fall in vain,
and it will he enough for all long cherish
ed associations. if Perchnpce my blood
shall atone for the wrongs of my race and
hese States shall at last be free
Private adrices intimate aPPrehensions
