on slavery, at the vestry of the Congrega-
tional church. lie was formerly slave in
Baltimore, but not being satisfied with that
comfort" which is so superior to freedom,
according to Judge Redfeld, he escaped
some twelve years since, and is now trying
to secure an education. lie is very intel

of the institution he left behind, and gave

Assault on Mr.. Hickman.

The negro driving democracy are COM
mencing the campaign in manner similar
to 1856. Failing to meet their opponents
with argument, they of course resort to
the bludgeon. As slavery is a creature Of
physical force, to physical force will it re-
sort for support. On Friday of last week,
as Mr.. Hickman of Pennsylvania was re-
turning home through the capitol grounds,
he was overtaken by Edmund<on of Vir-
ginia, who Immediately called out and drew
back to strike. Mr. Clingman Of n. c.,
happened to be passing at the time, and
FASTENED up and seized his arm, when Mr..
Edmundson struck at Hickman, knocking
off his hat, but doing him no injury. Mr..
Breckenridge, the vice president, came up,
and they took him away, and the scene
ended. The cause of this assault was
recent speech of Mr.. Hickman, in which he
said that Virginia had been frightened by
seventeen men and COW at the IIarper's
Ferry affair. This EdmundSon is one of
the bullies who stood by as sentinel with
Keitt of South Carolina, to help Brooks in
his assault on Mr. Sumner. Mr.. Hickman
is slight built man in very poor health,
and was alone while Edmundson had Keitt
of S. c. and Bonligny of La, near by as

Glddlngs is splendid specimen of humanity,
large framed, tall, portly and dignifed, with
his head whitened with the frosts of over

The Philadelphia Press states with some
confidence that movement of a formidable
character is on foot in that city for the purpose
OF presenting the name of Mr. Banks to the
Chleago convention as d candidate for the
presidency. If it should be found that Mas
sachusetts can do better for the cause than to
furnish a candidate for the presidency, then
his name will probably not be pressed
1t is said that the pressure has become SO
great upon the national democratic committee,
Tor a change from Charleston to some other
place for holding the democratic convention,
That the committee have determined to hold a

New HAMPsHIRE--The result of the New
Hampshire election has disappointed every
body outside of the state The democrats ex.
pected to make gains, while the republicans
on the other hand did not expect gains But
Mr.. Goodwin the republican candidate for
governor will have 5000 majority, nearly 1000
more than last year and the republicans have
all the councillors, all the senators but two,
and an overwhelming majority in the House.
The New Hampshire democracy have been
defeated regularly, every year, since President
Pierce introduced his Kanzas policy; and now
the republicans are about as strong in that
state as they are in Massachusetts and Yer.
mont We shall triumph also in Connecticut
and Rhode Island.
The republican party of the county was
never before so strong as it is today nor was
the democratic party ever before SO weak.

given by himself and his friends during the
somewhat active canvass which preceded the
ballot left no doubt of his preferences. The

The discussion and ballot on the word
"whte'' closed the exciting business of the
House, Tuesday. Various bills were ordered
to a third reading among which was one in
favor of the Salem street society in Worces-
ter. Mr.. Sears, of Boston, offered an order
that Dr. j. S. Rock be allowed the use of the
hall of the House of Representatives on Fri
day evening, March 23d, for the purpose of
| delivering lecture on the subject of "Wom.
an, the intellectual equal of man, illustrated
| in the character and writings of Madame De
| StaeL" The House, a majority absent, re-
fused to pass the order by a vote of 81 to 81
| The dictionary question was revived Mr..
RICE, OF Worcester, opposed the resolve in
favor of Worcester's dictionary, on the ground
that the state ought not to incur the expense,
and, especially, that the state ought not to
espouse the cause of one rival publisher against
another. Messrs. PUTNAM of Danvers, JOHN
son of Dana, and others, spoke on the same
side, while Messrs. WENTWORTH of Lowell
OLIVER of Lawrence, MERRILL of Boston,
and others, spoke in its favor. The previous
question was moved by Mr.. WooD of Nan.
tucket, and the resolves were refused third
reading by vote of 43 to SO. Somebody
moved a reconsideration, and after much effort
to obtain quorum, it was unanimously re-
fused.

ordered, on motion of Mr.. PARK Err of Wor-
cester, that the clerk of the Senate be directed
to notify Messrs. Muzzey, Macy, and Hunting

of overseers. The order was sent to the

exhausted by the Benedictine monk whose ap.

library claims to have had the good fortune to
see real ghost and has gone south to recover.
The ghost actually haunted the alcoves where
the books on demonology and witchcraft were
stored. 1t is not stated whether its shadow is
still cast in the dusky places.

"THE SOUTHERN OPPosITIoN.'-It will be
remembered that, in Virginia, the southern
Opposition were even more clamorous for
the ultra measures of the slavery extremists
than the democrats. So it was in Kentucky,
and in some other slave states. In congress,
the southern opposition have voted often with
the democrats for speaker, printer, &C.. but not
man of them would vote for Mr.. Sherman,
and only one of them for Mr.. Pennington.
And yet, some republicans have been SO infat-
uated as to dream of an alliance with these
men for the election of a president, and to
preach that Success" by such means is ga du-
ty," One of the opposition members from
Tennessee is named Maynard. He once re-
sided in Millbury, in this county, we believe /;
but he has now something more than New
England education. The other day, Mr.. May
nard offered a resolution in the house of repre-
sentatives, directing an inquiry into the expe-
diency of negotiating a treaty with Spain
which should establish reciprocal free trade,
and permit "the unrestricted inter-passage
from one country to the other of all persons
whomsoever."
This expression, it will be seen, intends an
indirect restoration of the African slave trade
Itmeans treaty with Spain which will open
an African slave trade between our southern
states and Cuba. When the republican, party
take in men of that sort, there are a gooC
many of its present members who will inquir,
whether their associations might not be i'm
proved by joining the democrats and borde
rnffians.
