Sentiment at the North.

There arc numerous indications that
public sentiment at the North is rapidly
assuming position Of true conservatism.
The reverses TO our arms have taught the
people that they are not engaged in
days sport, but in a desperate struggle,
which will task all the energies of the
nation. We have been purified, as with
fire, by the recent disasters. More earn
estncss marks the popular efforts now
Men, at last, in their determination to
save the country, gaze suspiciously upon
rulers-criticise all their acts--blame them
when they ought to be blamed. Among
other gratifying indications is the loath-
ing with which the mass of the people
regard abolitionism. They feel that the
abolition party are hostile TO the Union,
and TO the great patriotic sentiment which
now animatcs the nation. They are,
therefore, not simply wearied with aboli-
tionism, but they begin TO hate and fear
it, and to wonder why the government
permits it to remain an element of dis
cord in these times when the country
should be harmonious. The war has
proved the whole abolition theory false
hood. Slaves do not want to be free, but
fight and work for their masters. Slav-
cry does not weaken the South, but ena-
bles nearly every white man TO fly 10
arms. Slavery does not enlist the SYM
pathies of civilization against it, neither
has it so degenerated the Southern men
that they will not fight, nor so impover-
ished them that they cannot sustain ar
mics, nor in the contest have the "poor
whites" arisen against the Shareholders.
On the contrary, they are the rebels
This class, whom abolitionists relied upon
to revolutionizo the South, are now the
leading spirits in the attempt to revolu-
tionize the government. We see, then,
that wherever aboltionism has asserted
facts, or attempted prophecy, the result
proves how foolish and ignorant it has
been. The people now feel this, and un-
derstand that the real friends of disunion
at the North are the abolition journals
and men who, in their mad desire to drive
the border States entirely into the REBEL
ion, declare that this shall be an aboli-
ton war. B.
In truth, popular sentiment has greatly
changed. Tho people will tolerate no
policy in the war save the preservation
of the constitution Chicago Times.

From the st. Joseph Traveller, Sept. 4.
Eleven Persons Poisoned by Negro.
Their Refusal to associate with
Him the Cause.

The citizens of northern Berrien were
thrilled with horror, the early part of
last week, by the intelligence that John
Sutherland, Esq, and his entire family,
residing in Pipestone township, some
fourteen or fifteen miles from this village,
with DR.. Fowler and one or two others,
had been poisoned by some malignant
person, and were lying in so dangerous
and critical condition that deep fears
were entertained that they would not re-
cover.
As soon rs it was ascertained that the
illness of the family was the work of
some malignant person, steps were insti-
tuted to discovered who the wretch could
be. Suspicion, fer reasons hereafter
named, at once attached itself to a negro
living near by, named Shoemaker, and
the next day he was arrested.
1t has been shown that about ton DAYS
previous to the transaction he purchased
half pound Of arsenic at the drug store
of G. Ii. Crane d Co., in this village,
which he informed Mr.. Crane he wished
to give to diseased horse. Rumor says
that he purchased q similar amount at
Dowagiac.
The negro had long threatened violence
TO Mr.. Sutherland and family, and all for
no reason, unless the fact that Mr.. S.
wholly discarded him in social point of
view, be considered a reason. While
some others of the people round about
countenanced kind Of social quality
with tho family of Shoemaker, Mr.. S.
and his household would have nothing
to do with them. This excited the ma
lignant nature of tho negro, and his
threatniDgs finally eliminated in the aw-
ful, damning crime which we chronicle
A short time since a "raising" came of
on Mr.. SIS premises, TO which Shoema-
ker was not invited, and il is said this
slight, as he considered it, made him in

to protect them from being the sport and
sacrifice of politicians who order battles
from ideas Of political necessity, or the vic
Tins Of contractors who make the peril
of the country the occasion of general
spoliation and peculation.
RESOLVED, That the hopes of the coun-
try depend upon the unity and vigor Of
the democratic party in this crisis; that
a democratic victory in this State would
be hardly less suspicious TO the cause Of
the Union than the triumph Of the Fed
eral arms on the battlefield; that, there
fore, we hold those democrats who, from
motives Of ambition or factiousness, are
seeking to divide and distract the party,
as not only treacherous to its principles,
but disloyal TO the country.

ordinately angry, and stimulated him an
earlier commission of the deed which he
meditated.
The poison was mixed in tho -four in
such quantities that several biscuits made
from IL were thrown to some chickens,
which they ate and then fell down and
died. A cat died from the same cause,
and a stump was found in the cornfeld
on the top Of which the pcrpetrator of
the deed had scraped from his hand some
lard as he passed by, and mouse hav-
ing crawled out and eaten of it, died be-
fore it could quit the place.
At last accounts Mr.. Sutherland's
family were doing well, and, it is thought,
would all recover, excepting, perhaps, the
youngest child.
