A NEUTRAL VIKw.-The New York San,
commercial journal, neutral in politics, takes a
sensible view of the Union agitation:
But while We show our devotion TO the Union,
and give to our Southern brethren the mos, am
pie assurances of our friendship, may we not ask
from them cordial reciprocation Of kindly and
iraternal sentiments? Southern men, and espe
cialy those who assume to lead public opinion in
the Slave States are responsible, in a great de-
gree, for the sectional animosties which endan.
ger the Confederacy. They have been intem-
perate in their language, and instead of discour-
aging agitation, they have frequently provoked il.
They have furnished the capital upon which our
Northern abolitionists are enabled 10 carry on an
aggressive warfare, and by injudicious acts they
have weakened the hands Of their friends in the
free States
If our fellow ctizans in the Slave States really
desire to maintain the Union invioste. and to
cultivate friendly relations with the people Of the
Free States, they can easily allay the agitation
which threatens to convulse the country. lie,
them cease their indiscriminate denunciations OF
Northern men, and their disunion speeches, and
all conservative, peaceloving men, will unite
with them in putting an end TO this sectional
| strife.

WoMAN's SPUSK.-The Newaygo Republican
il informed as follows, by an individual who was
present at the trial of Mrs Furman, before
Esq. AcNet, of the town of Sparta, Kent coun.
ty, charged of assault and battery with intent to
retalaie, upon one Edward Eddy, of that town.
It appears that the said Eddy circulated some
slanderou. reports, damaging materially the fair
fame of the said Mrs. Furman, charging her with
improper intimacy with certain Mr.. Noble, &c
The said Eddy happened to the house OF Mrs
Furmau, on business, ~hereupon the lady, with
courage not common TO the eek, pitched into
Mr.. Caluminator, and with beech Cad" gave
him a good "trouncing," before he could max,
his escape. The said Eddy takes said sailan
for assault and battery. The jury disagreed anC
the Justice dismissed the case. Served hin

Col. FORNEY on THE SPEAKEIsHIP-Col For
ney, who has been spending a fortnight at Wash
ington, says in a letter to his paper: fisherman
comes within a few votes of being elected every
day, but from present appearances he cannot be
elected, unless Messrs. Adrain, Riggs, Clarke, J.
G. Davis, Reynolds, (all of them elected by Re-
publicans) vote for him, as think they should
do, against any Administration man, and as they
could do without parting with a single one Of
their Democratic principles. Mr.. Sherman is a
Republican. but | believe that if he is chosen
Speaker he will be SO fair to the South that he
will take much of the wind out of the sails of the
fre-eaters. And this is really what many of the
disunionists fear"

True ENoUGH.-The y. Y. Tribune SAYS with
truth, that the dead lock at Washington presents
a singular aspect. A Republican organization is
prevented by the votes of Members of Congress
'aho are there By the aid of Republican rOte,,

but for those votes. Voting regularly, they pre-.
vent the choice of the Republican who for three
weeks has had large plurality, as much as if
they were voting directly for Bocock, Barksdale
OF Mcqueen. II their votes were withheld, a
choice would have been effected long since
Would not this, considering that they cannot
elect the man they would prefer, be a slight evil

in them by the thousands of Republicans who, in
each Of their district. turned the scale in their

WHAT CORRESPONDENTS THINK-The n
1ribunde Washington telegrapbic correspondent
is of opinion that no rally can now be made after
the last failure, and successful coalition seems
impracticable. Mr.. Millson was the most unob-
jectonable candidate, and fell short ten votes.
The Democracy are wholly demoralizcd by these
attempted Know Nothing fusions and bargains,
while the Opposition have gained confidence on
every test; their column not being broken from
the start
Efforts are now making to combine tomorrow
but their last defeat dscourages an attempt. No
candidate, either OF the Democracy or the South
Americans, can concentrate a united strength

ARRIVAL OF Mr. SEwARD.-Ths distn gushed

wednesday, and was received bv a concourse Of
friends, and welcomed by hundred heavy guns
from the park. Demonstrations of honor and
affection were made all along his route horne-
ward, at Albany and Utica, and upon his arrival
at Auburn, all parties joined in doing him honor.
IL was touching proof Of the hold upon the
people possessed by Mr. Seward, that in every
church in the city of Auburn prayers for his safe
return were offered up by the respective otficia-

return.
Mr. Seward will resume his seat in the Senate,
when We may look to see his defamers called to
account for charges Of treason, which they have
circulated in his absence.

Gro. WASHINGTON AN ANTI-SLAyERY MAN.
The following is a paragraph from Washington
lrvngs Life of Washington:
In letter to Mr. John F. Mercer, in Sep.
TENDER, 1856, he George Washington writes /:
: | never mean, unless some particular circum.
stances compel me TO it, to possess another slave
by purchase, 1t being among my first uishes to
see some plan adopted 6y uhich slavery in thi.
country may be abolished BY la~.' And eleven
years afterwards, in August, 1877, he writes to
his nephew, Lawrence Lewis, in q letter which
We have had in our hands, Il riM from nv soul
that the Legislature of this State could see the
policy Of a gradual abolition of slavery. IL
might prerent much further mischief'"
The Lansing state Republican. [volume] (Lansing, Mich.) 1855-1874, 1860-01-03

Mr.. Buchanan, in his message, makes the not
uncommon blunder of taking cause for efsct-in
other words, he seeks to attribute to what he
calls slavery agitation, consequences which evil
IDENTITY 6ow from the institution itself. He says:
"f the mothers of families within this extern.
slve region should not be able to retire to rest at
night without suffering dreadful apprehensons of
what may be their own fate and that Of their
children before the morning, it would be vain to
recount to such q people the political benefits
which result to them from the Union. Self-pre-

therefore any state of society in which the sword

was . STAKEHOLDER, once informed . gentleman
who is now in a high position this State, that
fear Of going to rest, with large body of slaves
in the vicinity, made her hate slavery, and that
after she became q housekeeper, she would never
have one about her. On commenting upon this
portion Of the message, Mr.. Greeley says: Ten
years ago, an eminent Southern statesman tcld
u that he never retired to rest at night en- his
plantation without carefully examining his pis-
tolls and rife, which hung at his bedside, to make
eass that they were ready for instant use !; and a
mother Of Virginia told u.s. years ago, that if &C.
cidentally wakened at night by any noise in the
neignborhood, her first impulse was one Of terror,
Lest il should proceed from revolt Of the ne
groes. II this is the case where the slaves form
only minority Of the inhabitants, how will it be
when they come to form great majority! Will
not that state Of things be ntolerable that :he
whites will finally flee from it in obedience to the
instinct Of selfpreservation which Mr.. Buchanan
speaks ots And what utter folly and wicked
ne0 to endeavor to plant such a social condi-
ton in countries that are now free from its
blghting curse!
