The Bight Course oi the friends of the
Union.
The extreme Republican papors, North and
Northwest, laugh at the demands for tho.repoal
of certain State lawa obstructing tlio act of
Congress, based upon tho Constitution,of the
United States, in regard, to {agitiro slaves,
and for the abrogation of such other statntos
as are Tepngnant to the feelings ot the South
ern people on this subjeot. The other extreme
(composed oi the fire-eaters and Socession-
Ists) treat, with equal scorn, the efforts ol tho
National and Union-loving men in reforonce
to this adverse legislation. Tho one side In
sists upon retaining this legislation on the
statute-book, and the other asserts that if this
legislation is it will not lesson tholr
demands upon the Southern people to break
up the Confederacy.
Thus it is that men of opposite opinions,
both 'striving to attain a common end—al
though the one section denies the charge oi
disunion, while the other openly avows It—
are brought together. Tho men who ask for
the prohibition of slavery in the Territories,
and those who ask for its protection, by Con
gressional action, are now joining hands to
prevent the removal of one of tlv great stum
bling-blocks to the proper adjustment of this
qnestion, which has so long vexed the coun
try.
Caleb Cushing, some years ago, in a speech
ot signal ability, in the Legislature of Massa
chusetts, showed that Sonth Carolina and Mas
sachusetts, each representing a theory sup-
posed to be antagonistic to the other, had for
years been the headquarters of nearly every
scheme looking to the overthrow of tho Re
public ; and that no comprehensive national
statesmanship, looking to tho preservation ot
the Union by respecting tho equality of tho
States, could.maintaih itself in either. Mr.
Webster lost the affection of Massachusetts
when he ceased to be the mere echo of the
sentiment of that State, and Mr. Calhoun,
with all his great abilities, kept hiß position in
Sonth Carolina only by coltivating the loci'
fanaticism ot his State, and by yielding his
early national record.
We find that tho nttra-Ropuhlicans hoso thoir
hostility to the repeal oi the obnoxious laws
referred to, upon tbo ground that to yiold in
that respect would be to oxhibit cowardice —
would be showing woakness of spirit—and an
eminent Republican journalist states that tho
Repnblicans must not bo « bullied” into such
a concession. Somo contond that to do so
would be to surrondor a curtain theory in re
gard to human rights. Others defiantly de
clare that the Union had hotter go to piucos
than to accept such a compromise, us that
which demauds strict obedionco to tho man
datory provisions of the Federal Constitution.
Mr. Rheti and his school, which now num
bers thousands who have heretofore stood by
the country, not only doom this proposition
insufficient, bnt say that, as tho Union has
failed to servo their purposes, and in
consequonce of Mr. Lincoln’s election by
the votes of Northern peoplo alone, it is thoir
dnty and their destiny, their interest and their
inclination, to secede from tho Union, and
that no terms that may be offered to them, in
[ older to arrest this step, wifi bo accepted. I
. Congress assembles on Monday next. Tho j
Indications dearly point to the fact that I
the Northern and border States wifi be fonnd
co-operating in a body for the preservation
of- tho Confederacy. We think it wifi dearly
appear that most of the Cotton States intend
to retire at an early day; and, in so doing,
they wifi take care to provide the most strin-
I gent legislation against all the freo States, and
particularly against those which stubbornly re
fuse to repeal lheir laws obstructing the exe
cution of the fugitive-slave act. The Go
vernment Itself is on the verge of bank
ruptcy; and the Secretary of the Treasury will
immediately state this fact, so that the repre
sentatives of the people can provide for tho
, public necessities by loan or otherwise. The
Morrill tariff bill, which passed the last popu
lar branch of Congress, is now npon the table
oi'the United States Senate. It has gone
through the ordeal of the Finance Committee
in'the tetter body, haying been reported just
libefore the-adjonrunent by Hr. Hubtek, witb
I a recommendation that it do not pasß. It
would be the height of folly to attempt to carry
I on the Administration by means of a loan or
[troasory. notes, whan, oitr revenues are being
l ent off uid oqr-pablic credit - damaged. Thus
byre should, in all probabilityjNave a currency
Seiiatora of the great Middle States wifi take I
npthe Morrill Wit, And, with- the aid of their 1
.colleagues from the border Slave States, enact I
it into.a law, there wifi be some basis for the |
restoration of public confidence—at least!
among.the.Commonwealths that conclude to 1
remain in tho Union—and such an inducement I
I to the revival of business as ina y ward off what |
is supposed to be upon ns, viz: tho calamities |
' of a hard winter, growing ontof tbo discharge I
of hundreds and thousands ol laboiorß in our I
j cities and towns. I
/The Dlsunlonists who may remain in Con-1
Mess'cannot complain of this legislation as I
injurious to them, because they bavo already I
avowed their determination to go, and that!
I which might, be a cause of objection under
I other circumstances, will be a matter of indit-
I ferencetothemnow. Such action on tho part of
| Congress wonldmspire every Northern Statoto
J move at once in the enforcement of the fugi-1
I tive-slave law. If New England refuses ta
I repeal her offensive acts., let not Pennsylvania
land Ohio hesitate; and it Now England wifi
I consent to abrogate her laws, hut not as
I against the seceding and revolting States, le
I her exclude them in her legislation. In other
.1 words, the duty of all the people of the freo
I States Is to make entry effort to strengthen the
J Union men of the border slave States) including
Louisiana.
We look forward to tho day not far ulßtanl
when the Middle States and tbo Northwest, I
and Virginia and Kentucky, including Loul- J
si&na, California, and Oregon, may become a I
grand Confederacy, the progress, power, and I
prosperity of which will become so control!-1
j ing, and the liberality of its policy so manifest, I
os to induce those who now clamor for soccs-1
slon .and disunion gladly to return, and place I
themselves under its protection. For tho pro-1
sent, let it Buffico that tho Legislatures of the
free States owe it to thcmsolvos to adopt I
I prompt measures in roforcnco to their prohl-
I bltory statutes; and it tho Union Eoprcßonta-
I tlves In Congress shall encourage tho sent!-1
I ment by such action as wo have indicated, wo
{may not only’ahield ourselves from many of
I the blows now aimod at tho integrity of tho
I Union, but in ft great degree paralyze tho of-
I forts’ of those who are engaged in tho Seces-
I Mon movement.
Toleration.
* \ correspondent courteously excepts to our
baying praised Gabibaldi’s liberality in not
only allowing the English Protestants to eroet
B church at Naples, but also , in presenting
them with a site for the sacred edifice, and
adds that neither at Borne nor in Spain is there,
or tw been, any obstacle thrown in the way of
Protestants worshipping together, in their own
houses ef prayer. It is true that permission
is granted in Rome, provided that the assem
bling and separation ot the congregation bo
done in tbe least public manner, but, as re
gards religions toleration in Borne, we find an
illnstration of it in the very latest foreign
journal before ns, which says: “ About three
hundred Protestants, connected witli tho rail
way now building near Bllboa, having collected
a lew Sundays ago to worship, a number of
Spanish officials entered the church and put a
stop to the service."
The remark ofonrNew York correspond
ent, “Huron,” in reierenco to The World,
the last newspaper enterprise in that great
city, should not be understood as reflecting
upon the management of that paper, or as dis
couraging the experiment of increasing it
from a penny to a two-cent journal. The
World was established, and is conducted by
gentlemen who are laboring hard to- deserve
success, and we trust their expectations may
be realized.
The Montgomery Advertiser, the central
organ of the Disunions of Alabama, speaks
of the great conservative States of Virginia,
Kentucky, Missouri, and Maryland, as follows:
it We think that all the Cotton States will ne
cessarily follow South Carolina and Alabama,
within less than three months after their .se
cession. We do not think that semi-Aboli
ttonized Missouri, or the State, in which
Botxs, and White* Davis, and P.ehiioe are
leaders of peat parties, will follow ns until
kicked out of the Union.”

' WILLIAM F. PACKER,
GOVERNOR OF THE BAIT) COMMON WEAT,fn :
A PROCLAMATION.
FaLLOW-oiTizENfi : Tho revolutions of the year
have again brought us to our annual festival of
Thanksgiving to Almighty God. In no preooding
year have wo had moro abundant oauso for gratis
tude and praise. The rovolving seasons have
brought with them health and plenty. The sum
mer fruits and the autumn harvests have been
gatbored and garnered with unwonted exuberanoe.
A healthful aotlvity has porvaded all the depart
ments of life; and provident industry haß met
with a generous reward. Tho inorease of material
wealth has been liberally employed in sustaining
our educational and religious institutions, and both
are making the most gratifying progress in en
lightening and purifying the publio mind. While,
in Europe, oentral and absolute governments, by
their pressure on personal rights and liberty, aro
producing exoitements which threaten to upheave
the very foundations of sooloty, and have led, in
some Instances, to bloody and oruel wars, we, in
the enjoyment of constitutional libarty, and under
the proteotion of just and equal laws, aro peace
fully pursuing the avocatlpns of life, and engaging
Id whatever promises to advanoe our sooial ana in
dividual improvement and happiness. “The
lines are,” indeed, “ fallen to us in pleasant plocoe,
and we have a goodly heritage." In all this we
see the orderings of a kind and meroiful Provi
dence, whioh call not only for our reoognition, but
for our publio Thanksgiving and Praise.
Under this conviotion, I, William P. Packer,
Governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
do hereby* appoint Thursday . the twenty-ninth
day of November next , to be observed as a day of
pablio Thanksgiving and Prayor, and reoommend
to all our people, that setting aside, on that day, all
worldly pursuits, they assemble in their respeotive
places of worship and unito in offering thanks to
i God for His manifold goodness, and imploring His
i forgiveness, and the oontinuanco of His meroies.
I Given 1 under my hand and tho Great Seal of tho
State, at Harrisburg, this twenty-fourth day of >
I October, in the year of our Lord one thousand
eight hundred and sixty, and of the Commonwealth
tho eighty-fifth. Wh. F. Packer.

Secretary of the Commonwealth.
More About the Water Gas.
Wo porecivo that tho contest between tho
City Gas Works, and the gentlemen who
aro interested in tho manufactory of water
gas, has not been closed, although tho former'
has consented to light tho Girard llouso du
ring tho repairing of tlvo machinery necessary
to a fair trial of their invention. We have no
moro interest in this matter than that which
concerns tho entire community; but we be
lieve that it is the duty ot tho managers of tho
City Gas Company to extend every facility to
tho experiment for testing tho cheapness and
quality of tho water gas. Wo understand,
from good authority, that tho parties con
cerned in making tho gas which has been used
at tho Girard House have lost many thousands
of dollars, owing to tho course of tho officers
at the head of tho old system, and that other
! obstructive steps are contemplated. This is
sheer obstinacy or worse. It can do no good
to tho public, and will only awaken a deeper
Interest in tho discovery which is thus sought
i to be depreciated and embarrassed.
Monsieur Blondin.
This afternoon, anil alio in the evening, Mon
s’our Blondin will reproduce, at tho Academy of
Musio, the most remarkable of tho wonderful and
adventurous feats with whioh he “ astonUhed the
natives” and Royalty, at Niagara Falls. If any
bold-hearted gentleman, weighing two hundred
pounds, or thereabouts, has any ambition to ride,
on Blondin’# shonlders, from the stage to the
upper gallery, and b&okftagein, upon no broador
tramrbiid than & stretched ropo, M. Blcndln will
be happy to accommodate him. Ladles, who de
sire to take this excursion, must previously reduce
themselves to a state of Bloom'erißm, by discarding
their hoops nnd crinoline, whioh, we understand,
M. Blondin thinks would be rather in the way.
The Academy of Mueio will have some thousands
within its walls to-day.
| Greatness, whatever its character, generally hu
I imitators. It is so M. Blondin. There are
now In England two or three performers on tl)e
I rope who call themselves “ Blondin,” and, to
carry the Imposition fully out, Advertise them
selves as having crossed Niagara in a sack, upon
'Stilt#, with people on their a *©w
contains ah elaborate advertisement
I from a pseudo-" Blondin,” minutely describing his
I passage over the Rapids, and promising a fac
simile of that surprising performance. There is
another u Blondin” now exhibiting In London, as
the veritable “ Hero of Niagara,” and, on tho
strength of this pretence, orowds are thronging
Ito see him. As yet, however, as M. Blondin por-
I lonslly awared us a few days ago, when he oalled
I upon us, accompanied by bis intelligent agent,
I (Mr. Henry Coleman, formerly of Liverpool, and
I an old friend of ours,) tho real hero of Niagara
[ palls has not yet set foot npon English soil. He
I purposes to visit England next April, and he lias ev-
I otj reason to expect and believe, that the Prlnoe of
I Wales, who witnessed bis perilous feats at Niagara,
J and sent him a munificent token of his admiration
I and approbation, will be as kind to him on English
las be was upon Canadian Boil. The Prince ex-
I pressed a hope, ©if that oooasion, that M. Blondin
I would not retire from hlB hazardous profession until
| after he had performed in England.
I This day, M. Blondin will execute his most rc-
Inownod and difficult feats, and of course he will
I draw large houses.

prise headed by Mr. Eli W. Whelan, designed to
contribute to the improvement of the blind. The
main feature of Mr. Whelan's plan oonsiete of a
periodical printod in raised letters. Although the
first oi its kind over proposed to be published, no
special argumont is necessary to prove its im- I
poftance, sinoo rvhatovor aan bo said in favor of I
toaoliing the blind to read, or providing a perma
nent literature for them, will apply equally to it.
Mr. Whelan earnestly invites all porsons in- I
tsrosted in this good oause to snbsoribo, and
thereby Rid in establishing the projeoted under
taking ; and especially solioils the aid and en
couragement of tho managers, principals, and
te&ohers of tho soveral Institutions for tho Blind
in Ibis and other oountrlos. 1* is designed to ap
pear monthly, eommenotog as soon ns a suflloicnt j
number of subscribers shall hafe boen prooured to
defray the expense of publication. Each number
will consist of from ton to fourteen largo folio
pages, and will furnish what in goneral terms may
bo called periodical literature, together with snob
current itoms of news as may bo compatiblo with
its oharaoter and limits.
All communications addressed to E. W. Wholan,

WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE.
Letter from Occasional,”
[Correspondence of The Preic.l
Washington, Nov. 23, iB6O.
Ou Monday next, the second and olcdng session
of iho Thirty-sixth Congress will assemble in this
city. It is oomposod of llepresentativos and Delo
gatoß from all the States and Territories. Whe
ther it shall be the last Congress of an unbroken
Union Will depend alone upon Providenoo. It is
now hoping against hope to expoot reasonable ao
tion on tho part of those who have resolved to re-
tire from onr family of Republics. Every day
adds to the evidenoe that South Carolina, Alaba
ma, and Mississippi will seoede before the fourth
of Maroh, unless, in the meantime, moderate coun
sels should prevail, and those who marshal the way
to dissolution shall entirely ohange their oonrse.
Muoh good may be done, however, during the com
ing session. The Republicans, in December of
1859, bore themselvos with admirable equanimity.
They received all tho attacks of the extiome
Southern men with singular complaoenoy and for
bearance. If this deportment was desirable a
yoar ago it is,a thousand times more desirable
now*. If they could afford to rejoot all passionate
retort and reorimioation when they wore out of
power, they oan cerL *uiy afford to oxoroiso similar
self-denial when the ruponsibiUties of oonduoting
the Administration of the Government have
boon laid upon' their shoulders. The common
danger may inspire oommon patriotism. The im
pending catastrophe may still the tempestuous
waves of anger and of hatred. The South contains
many good and staunoh friends of the country in its
respective delegations, and it is upon theso repre
sentatives of tho conservative olasses in that sec-
tion that everything depends. Millson, Harris,
and Clemens, of Virginia; Branob, Gilmer, and
Winslow, of North Carolina; Houston and Cobb,
of Alabama; Miles Taylor and Boaligny, of
Louisiana; Brown, Anderson, and Stephoneon, of
Kentucky; Quarles, Etheridge, and Nelson, of
Tennessee; Phelps and Craig, of Missouri, will, I
hope, be found on the side of oonoiliation. Similar
anticipation is indulged a* to suoh Senators as
Pearce of Maryland, Hunter of Virginia, CHng
man of North CuroUna J# Pitzpatriok of Alabama,
and Johnson of Tonnessco. Let the appeal to the
hearts of tho whole Union come from an old states
man like Crittenden, of Kentuoky, and I think it
will not bo unheedod. As yet, so few members
have arrived, that nothing can bo foretold as to
the probable course of the Southern members ia
the coming session.
Our friends should recollect that they have eve
rything to lose by impulsive and inconsidorate ac-
tton. They have to deal, not with strangers, but
with countrymen; and if they dosire to make
suoh a record up as they can stand by, and to fur
nish suoh a contrast as will do them honor here
after, they will be guided by no other motives
hut those which should inspiro every man when a
universal calamity is at hand.
The daily publication of the Congressional
Globe will bo resumed on Monday next, and will
be continued during the session of Congress. It
is the most successful and entorprising parliamen
tary journal in the world; and ae the debates are
reportod in it verbatim, one of tho most interest
ing to all who liko to peruse the discussions of
great questions. Mr, Rives, the proprietor of tho
Globe, is a man of great energy and experience,
and deserves the rich reward he is reaping from
his invaluable paper. Occasional.

LATEST. NEWS
By Telegraph to the Press,
FROM WASHINGTON.
Speoial Despatches to " The Press,’’
Washington, Nov. 28, 1800.
Rupture in the Cabinet.
It is now stated to be oerlßin that the Cabinet
cannot, hold together until the meeting of Con*
gross, on Monday next. Seoretaiy Cobb, of the
Treasury Department, and Secretary Thompson,
of the Interior Department, have openly taken
stand against the Union doctrine of the President’s
forthcoming message. Governor Conn’s family
have shipped their goods, for Georgia, and will
leave on Saturday. He, himself, had not written
one word of his annual report as late as lußt eve
ning, end his severe siokness, it not his withdraw
al from the Cabinet, may prevent his making sny
at all. I learn that Secretary Thompson’s family
are also preparing to take their departure for the
South. It grows more hopeful that Mr. Bucha
nan will be equal to the orisis. .
Lincoln’s Cabinet*
It is ooDfidontly predicted that Hon. Robert C.
Schenck, of Ohio, will form one of Mr. Lincoln’s
Cabinet. Corwin and Sherman are both wanted
in tho llouse in the present distressing exigency of
public affairs. Mr Schbnck was eight years a
distinguished member of the lower House, and
Minister Plenipotentiary to the Argentine Confe
deration under Fillmore He first nominated Lin
coln for the Presidency, at Dayton, when he ac
companied him upon his canvassing tour of Ohio,
in 1850, and it is significant that he was of the
President eleot’s suite on the oooaaion of his recent
virtit to Chiongo.
Governor Corwin.
Governor Corwin, who is bore, continues uu
woaried in his efforts to pour oil upon tho troubled
waters. Do allogos that Lincoln’s Administra
tion will command, by itaadberence to tho Consti
tution, tho respeot of conservative men of all sec
tions. It is probable that he will tuke the floor of
tho Ilouro at an osrly day next week, for the pur
poEc of allaying, as far as may be, tho agitation
now prevailing in the Southern mind.
Charges against Census Marshals.
Official corruption promises to sturtlo Congress
and the oonntry at the next, as it did at the last
session. Whatever may have been said of Coyodb,
u corruption has not shrunk scorched from the
glance of his ejo.” Among other charges is this,
that the census marshals of an adjoining slave
State, and of ono of the larger Northern States,
have extorted from their deputios 33i per cent, of
their salaries. The fact looked out by refraotory
deputies refusing to pay the porcentoge, and thus
bringing the mattor to the attention of the Presi
dent. Tho secession' excitement has, as yet, pre
vented its being attended to.
Virginia Scuatorsliip.
Gonoral John S. Millbon, a firm Union man,
and Douglas Democrat, promises to succeed Janes
M. Mason in the Senate of the United States. It
will be a proper reward for worthy publio services.
Dr. Gwin.
Mrs. Gwin heard from the Senator by the last
pony express. Ho thought that Douolas had car
ried California, although Lincoln was some 800
ahead by latoat returns. He was overwhelmed by
the result.
Conference.
Judge Black, ConD, and Thompson, had a long
conference this morning. Its result is unknown.

Indian Outrages.
Port Kearney, Nov. 28. —Two men, named
Pope and Punk, employed by Mr. Davidson, about
seventeen miles on the Platte, abovo here, came
in to-day and reported that a party of fifteen In
dt&ng, supposed to ho Cheyennes, chased them
from Elm oreek yesterday. Whon near the road,
one of the Indians rode up to tho ox-team Pope
was driving and snapped his gun at him, and then
threw his lance. Popo drew his pistol, but it
snapped. Punk, who was on horseback dose by,
snot the Indian, when Pope jumped upon the In
dian s horse, and both fled and so esoaped, leaving
the wagon and team The other Indians were, at
this time, half a mile behind, but they pursued
the-men for some distanoe when Pope and Funk
sought protection from a largo passing train, and
the Indians retired slowly. a
Assoon as the commanding officer was informed
of the attack, he ordered the dragoon oompany
stationed here into the saddle, but found that all
the wagons belonging to the fort were down the
Platte after wood, One has been sent for to oarry
the provision and forage, and the company will
start this afternoon and go to Davidson to-night,
and proceed to Elm oreek In the morning and at
taok the Indian oamp if the report is true.
A large party of Sionx ana Ohoyennes came
near the fort and into Kearney oity this morning.
They stated that they were from Republican fork,
and were seeking the Pawnees. The settlers ana
mail agents are very uneasy at the attitude the
Indians have assumed of late, and anticipate an
attack from them. The Indians having heard
that somoof tho dragoons had left, and the post at
Fort Kearney was to be broken up, have threat
ened that, as soon as this was done, they intended
to wipe out overy settlement on the Platte.
THE LATEST.
l'? 1 , 1 ? 1, h «ing arrived, the dragoons
left hore about half past two this afternoon. They
are very handsomely mounted, and tho display is
altogether creditable. We may expect to hear
from them by to-morrow night.
The KnußiiH Troubles.
St. Louis, Nov. *B.—A speoial despatch to tho
Democrat says that the volunteers composing tho
Border Expedition, under General Frost, had on
oampod near SmithviJJe, the terminus of tho Pa
cific Railroad, awaiting orders frem the Governor
of the State Rumors wore current in Jefferson
City that tho Governor has ordered the troops to
return, in consequent of the President having
given Gon. Harney directions to pursue aud arrest
Montgomery wherever found.
It is probable that the troops will remain en
camped for the present, and a small mounted
squad, under a competent commander, will bo sent
to the neighborhood of Fort Scott to report at head
quarters with all possible speed, and the move
ments of tho troops will be in accordance with the
information brought back.
Leavenworth, Nov. 28. Acting Govornor
Beebe has lesuod a proclamation in relation to
the affairs of Southern Kansas, calling on Captain
Montgomery and his band to disband and return

Tho Austrian Gazette says that England will

bassador plenipotentiary instead of an envoy, and
that Lord Bloomfield will be appointed.
Tho Paris Pays says that Sardinia has claimed
the oannon taken from the Neapolitans disarmed in
the Papal territory, but Gen. Govondoolinea giving

London, Nov. 18 —The United States minister,
Mr. Dallas, Lord Palmorstoa, and Lord and Lady
John Russell, are on a visit to her Majesty at
Windsor. Tho Observer remarks that the invita
tion of tho American minister to Windsor, so soon
after the arrival of the Prinoe of Wales, in com
pany with the heads of the Government, is a proof
and a grateful acknowledgment of the hospitality
of tho President, and the attention and enthusiasm
upon the heir of the British throne exhibited by
all ranks and olasses of the people ef tho United
States.
From Mexico.
New Orleans, Nov. 27.—8 y the arrival of tho
Bohooncr Alphonsine , from Tampioo onthelflth

Regarding the $400,000 recovered from the
seized conduota, the courts decided in favor of a
pro-rata distribution. *
Everybody was preparing for a change of go
vernment.
Miramon’a declaration of his inability to defend
the capital oieated considerable excitement. The
last aooonnts state that the Constitutionalists had
captured Tacubaya and Guadalajara. It was be

Meeting of Manufacturers to Take
Some Meakh op Reducing the Amount e? Pro*
auctions.—a meeting of influential gentlemen,
manufacturers of ootton and woollen goods in
Philadelphia and vicinity, was held at the estab
lishment of Garsed St Co., No. 22 North Front
street, yesterday noon. About forty gentlemen
were present. Mr. Abraham Lately, of Delaware
oounty, presided. H. A. Dubrlng acted as secre
tary.
The president stated that the object of the meet
ing was to consider the present depressed state of
aflairs, and to agree upon some plan by which less
goods should be manufactured. By unanimity of
aotion there could be less produotlon without &
general stoppage.
Mr. Riobard Garsed said that it was evident that
production must bo decreased. The supply was
greater than the demand. The partial stoppage
in 1857 had been attended with good effects, and
he believed that it would now be attended with like
beneficial results. He regretted that there was so
little harmony among persoua where there is so
great an interest. There is no market at home or
abroad, and some way of lessening the supply
generally, and fairly distributing the reduction,
should be devised.
Mr. John Dunlap mado seme remaks on the
philosophy of trade. H labor is in excess of the
demand, there must bo depression, without regard
to political causes. When there i* an overglut of
goods, prices must inevitably ccme down. There
are pertain goods now in the market sufficient to
last two years, if there are no more of them made.
Xhere are too many goods mado, and the supply
must be diminished, or thoso undo must be sold at
ruinous rates.
The president again urged the necessity of re
ducing the supply, or there would bo a general
crash through the glut of goods. He was opposed
to reducing pricos of labor, but he wanted to see
the mills run half time. He thought the depres
sion would bo temporary, and it only noeued a
unanimous lessening of tbo supply to prevent se
rious loss
Mr. William Bowers proposed that the meetiog
pledge itself to unity of aotion.
Mr. Garsed moved that a second weotingshould
bo held, whore there would bo a more general re
presentation of the large interests involved.
Mr. Kent also made some remarks. It was evi
dent that a great diversity of opinion prevailed
among the manufacturers.
. After some further discussion the meeting ad
journed to meet again en Saturday at noon, tbo
persons present agreeing to rigu the call for the
second meeting.
. After adjournment, the manufacturers gathered
m knots to diseass the questions at issue. We un
derstood that the politiosl crisis had materially af
fected the demand for certain goods, and that goods
of a certain kind had beon manufactured in im
mense quantities. Unless greater unanimity pre
vail among the manufacturers, little oan be done.
The Negro Valet of J. Buchonait
Cross.—Bob Burrlll, the valet of Cross, theforger,
whose romantic attachment to that unprincipled
man formed tbo staple of gossip and admiration ae
the time of his master’s downfall, is now in Rioh-
P l .®,, »Va » his seoond sale to the highest
bidder. °
At the time of Col. Cross’ first trial in Philadel
phia, (several months before the commission of the
offenoe of which be was convicted,) Bob ohlval
rously volunteered to go South and mortgage him
self to raise money for his master. He went, and
nothing more was thought of him or his advantage,
nnU! within a day or two, when he was heard from
at Riohmond, Va. It seems that Bob had been
sold once, and was, at last accounts, in Richmond,
awaiting a second sale, when he expected to be
sent farther South.
Bob has sent on to this city to endeavor to pro
cure his old passport, in whioh he was declared to
be a free white mao. The paper was given to the
wife of Cross, by the police, after the trial, and no
thing is known of her whereabouts.
While in Paris, Col Cross obtained for his friend
this passport, whioh was duly signed by Mr. Ma
son, then minister to Franoe, and whioh repre
sented Bob as a free white oitizen of the United
States Mr. Mason, upon discovering the facts,
was very desirous ofxeoovering possession of the
passpart, but he was not snooessfal.
Bob has negro blood in his veins, but his whife
akin, straight hair, and his Intelligence and easy
manners, enable him to pass readily for a white
man.
