Nor QUITE FULL rHoUoH.-Ex. President Tyler,
who took the chair at the opening o: the Wash
ington Compromise Convention, made an anti
sectional, Union.saving speech, in which he refer
red specifically to the several States that had sent
Commissioners. Speaking Of Pennsylvania he
said,
Then comes Pennsylvania, rich in revolutions
ry lore, bringing with her the deathless names of
Franklin and Morris, and l trust ready to renew
from the belFry of Independence Hall the chimes
Of the old bell, which announced Freedom aud In
dependence in former days."
1t was a pity he did not quote the inscription
upon tho old bell, and urge the Convention to
make no compromises which would interfere with
its metallic injunction, "Frocldim liberty through
out the land, unto all The Inhabitants thereof" Per-
haps such proclamation vas not thought to be the
best Union specific which the convention could
recommend.

TIE TABLES rURNING.-For twenty years past
the members and friends of the American Anti
Slavery Society have been advocating a dissolu-
ton of the Federal Union; Rrst, as a measure nee
essary to clear the North of political support OF
slavery, and second, as a means to destroy the
system. They have urged upon consideration of
community the obvious fact that such q separation,
whi.e it would weaken slavery in the South, would
greatly advance the interests Of the North.
In returnfor this preaching they were denounced
as Missionaries, fanatics, and traitors.
In the first article on our FIRST page the editor Of
the N. Y. Epening Post advocates the worry doc
trine that abolitionists have been hooted a. for
Neutrality-suspicious. unwearied, persistent action is
beginning to produce its fruits; the little leaven is
leavening the whole lump. Tho truths that were
long since clear to abolitionists, politicians in their
blindness failed to perceive; the scales are now
falling from !heir eyes, and they are awakening TO
a Consciousness that We have only told them the
truth, though the time has not yet como for them
to make such acknowledgement.
Yes, tho North will be relieved "frOm an inAu-
ence which has corrupted and demoralized our
politics." and ''freed from that clog on our actions,
and clear Of that dark blot, shall proceed on .
career Of glory and prosperity to which the world
will offer no parallel" But We must not look for
this too soon, not until We pass through the pur-
gatory our completely with slavery has created
not until the penalty is paid for violated laws
