THE SLAVERY AGITATION.

W" had hopcl-and in this hope we
w"r" no doubt Joined by every tru" lover
Of the l'noa ANA the country-that the
agitation of the slavery question was nj
an end. But the New York Post. one
of the most influential supporters of
Pierce and King. thus refers to the mat
ter in Il late iSSuc:-
There is every prospect, not of II re-
H"wal for that is not the true term. but
of II continuance of the discussion. MS
long us any attempts are made to en-
force the Fugitive Slave lar. The dis
cuI>siom seems. for the time. to have been
Sil"ncrd in Congress. but il is not SilcnC-
ed elsewhere. Every pursuit of Il black
fugitive into the free States rckindIcS
the controversy in all its original heat,
and nothing but the absolute dcSuctudc
of that law will quiet public opinion ON
that point.
Md to this the assertion made by the

we may easily conceive the reason of
the warm support rendered to General

When DIR. Collins arose to deliver his
sermon he whiStled four times. the notes
being the imitation of the song of the
