An Unnecessary Apprehension.

The Newark (Oho) Advocate Gays: Oar fear is, that
the interference Of the Administration With the free
dom of the press in the loyal States of the North will
be regarded In England and france as an indication
that hostility to the Govermen. itself has formidable
existence in the North as well As in the South" No
fear of that Elehnd and France can never be guilty
Of 30 gross an error to suppose the people of the
North sufficiently brave and vruous TO oppose the kan
CARGO usurper at Washington. Eogl.nd and France
know that the pcoIls Of the North are vsns ssrv',
fAn.tica-eadowed with all the low iusiacs that t
for the condition of set political slavery, and they
will neyor mis- axe the efforts of party TO eoy the emou
ments of ofc,, for the struggles Of brave people 70
nrsserve their liberties.

fanatics forced eleven States TO withdraw from the

We have been told that Rspabicln political leader
has heard say that that party TO put can

platform they could rot receive three hundred votes 10

Wilmington permitted eroy her due share OF the trade
