Eir The central power of hunker
:sot in this county has great trouble to
'4 hum up a particle of interest among
th.-! people for their cut-and-dried cau
cus arrangement. This ii.diferenee
of the people is a hopulttl sg,t, and is
certainly very natural. Why should
14.! rank and file take any interest in
stntaining party machinery that. is
worked fin- the sole benefit of Slavery
or in attending a Convention whuso
u r,ceedings have been settled loag
q'ore the convention me; s
Why, the Condersp.rc leaden have
I , •abliuly bo;sted these two weeks of
le resolutions that would be adopted,
ad they hale detailed the purport of
ii Bargains ha% o been made and
concluded, which determine who sl
receive the nomination for' Congress
lids year, and who shall be nominated
'or Assembly next Year.
In all these little arrangements, it is
never once asked what the people will
ty M it; but it is boldly assumed, that
the laboring men of the county are so
.-I,laveil by party trammels, that they
ill quietly ratify the bargains made
the leaders, and rio-n of proptrty
standing. This plan use to w:irk
lo a charm ; but as it -has made the
tly conveniently RI - nail, it barely
c o,:ible that the rank aml tilts will set
y for theniselvc', and tell the Con
'sport leaders they are fully einupe
tolt to attend to their own interests.
la that case, the attendance on Sat
,l7day will be slim; for whoever goes
into Convention to-morrow, will find
himself b.,and by a web of r:rty

of yesterday, is one of the most brutal,
cowardly, and infinnous actions that
has ever disgraced a civilized nation.
What greater cruelty and crime
could be perpetrated by a band of pi
rates 1 If this wholesale destruction
has been authorized by the Federal
(;overnment, ages will not wash out
the shame from the \ational escutch
eon. The guilty parties, whether
high or low who have authorized this
cowardly act, should be degraded from
the stations which they disgrace.
We care not which party was in the
right, in the trifling affair which led to
the, demand of an apology. It is im
material. There could under no cir
cumstances be the slightest justification
of the cowardly vengeance which has
been taken. It is preposterous to pre
tend that the honor of the American
Nation demanded such satisfaction
from an insignificant village. The pre
tence is as false as the action is in
famous. We predict that
_this affair

for the annexation of the town and the

ARREST FOR =NAPPING
A man by the mite of Merrill' was arrested
at Gloversville,• Fulton count}•, on Friday,
charged with kidnapping Solomon-Northrup,
the slave. Our readers have doubtless seen
or heard of the book entitled, "Solomon Nor
thrup; or, Twelve Years a slave."
The book states how Solomon was invei
gled and enticed away, and sold into slavery
some fifteen years ago. Henry B. Northrup,
Esq., of Sandy Hill, Washington county, m
whose flintily he was brought up; expended a
large sum of money iu ascertaining the where
abouts of the colored boy, and after twelve
years' search he found and rescued him from
the' curse of slavery. Not satisfied with
Procuring the freedom of Solomon he has
been for two years endeavoring to ferret
out and bring to justice the wretch who, for
the sake of gain, trafficked in human flesh by
deliberately selling a free man into bondage.
The person upon whom suspicion rested, had
recently made his appearance in the vicinity
.of Gloversville, and the arrest was made on
Friday morning, at the above place. The
.prisoner was armed with pistols and bowie
knives, but so prompt was the arrest that he
had no time to use them. He is reported to
be a real deFperjdo, and had he had the least
suspicion of being arrested, would no doubt
have used his weapons freely: The negro
identified hint the moment he got his eye
upon him. The examination was set down
for to-morrow. We hope full justice will be
done him.—Buffalu Republic, of the 11.

The Pittsburg Commercial Journal discoursed
as follows in its issue of the 3d inst :
For the first time, since we have been
concious of a sentiment comprehending its
associations, the Fourth of July fimrs us
soured and indifferent toward the continuance
of these political bands which smite us to the
Slave States. 'We have been driven to deter
mine for ourselves "what is all this worthl"
and the day which shall separate us from
slaYery whch has dishoneied us at last, equal
ly with those who were always enamored of
it, will find us at least, not unwilling wit
nesses of a sepatation of the Union.
Whilst we make this admission, however
we have no will, no purpose, to relinquish the
golden and glorious histories which start with
Cis day, and cluster 'in association Around it
Bunker Hill and Yorktown are not to ba Sep
arated if the sons of the revolutionary flutters
find themselves forced by growing differences
of habit and temper to divide:their possession:::
and seek a seperate fortune.
For ourselves, we do not believe that the
Repeal of the Missouri Compromise, which
compels uS into new partnership with slavery
which Nationalizes that hitherto sectional in
stitution, will ever permit us again to look
with kindred feelings upon`fhe south, or cling
as we have done, to the Union as a guarantee
of our natiOnal greatness. The wherefore of
this we need not now argue. Enough, on this
occasion, that a recurrence of our National
Anniversary finds us constrained to make• the
admission.
