A number of whig papers have indulged ■!n some severe remarks against certain persons for taking ground against-Governor Johnston at the late election, anil thereby aided in his defeat. That some of Mr. Cooper's special friends, both here and elsewhere, did so, is not a matter of doubt, but for one, we are not disposed to magni fy them into so much importance as to at tribute the result of the election altogether to their deceptive course. Our friend of the Heading Journal, who is generally 14 right side up," takes the proper ground relative to this matter, and we heartily concur in all that is said in the subjoined article from that paper : We regret to see some of our strongest and most influential Whig journals, while review ing the causes that led to our recent defeat, indulging in accusatory and intemperate re marks in regard to the course of a portion of the party who are supposed to have leagued themselves with the opposition, and materially assisted in bringing about the untoward result. It seems to us that a course like this can do no good, and may, if persisted in, be productive of infinite harm. That a few traitors have dis graced our ranks is scarcely to be denied, but their number is so inconsiderable, and their in fluence so weak, that, treated with the con tempt they merit, it is hardly possible they will be able to work further mischief. To get up a hue and cry against them now, wouid be honoring them with an importance they by no means deserve, while it could hardly fail to raise them to a consideration which they most covet. The contest through which we have passed is after all, but preliminary to a greater and more glorious struggle. The Presidential election is fast approaching, and the choice of a proper candidate should now claim all our regards. If, as has been alleged, the course of the disorgatuzers was prompted with a view to effect that choice, they will find that they have counted without their host. The great body of the Whigs of Pennsylvania have already de clared almost unanimously for SCOTT, and what ever may be said by designing politicians abroad or at home, his claims, popularity, and chances of success, are in no degree affected by what has taken place. In a word, we can afford to be magnanimous—to let the miserable trick sters go—with the certainty that we shall tri umph over them most signally in the end, at Ipast so far as the voice of the Whigs of the Keystone is concerned. There was much '■Round philosophy in the remark of Sterne's <Uncle Toby to the -fly—'go poor devil—there is enough room in the world for me and thee.' hut while much that has been said, though ill advised, may be deserved, there is no ground, •that we can see. for the attacks nduiged by some of the print.-, we have referred to, against the present National Administration. What ever may be said of others in high places, J'resident FILLMORE, WC think it will be gen erally admitted, had no part or lot in our dis comfiture, and entertains no sympathy with the common enemy. I lis course proves him to be a true Whig—loyal to the Constitution, to the Union, and the The complaint that he did not throw the weight of his official ' influence into the scale of Pennsylvania poli tics and assist to determine the result in our favor, is altogether untenable, when we recol lect that opposi'ion to this very sort of inter ference on the part of our Locofoco Presidents, was one of the main planks in the Whig plat form. As ex officio leader of the party, it be comes him to occupy high national ground.— Any swerving on his part from this plain line of duty, would not only weaken his ad min isli at ion, but, if indulged in to any consider able extent, tend not a little to distract the party to whose united suffrages he is indebted for ins position. There is 110 shadow of evi dence to warrant the accusation that he has played false. On the contrary, the whole his tory of his political career, is a convincing proof that whether in victory or defeat his sym pathies have always been on tlie right side. Away, then, with useless regrets, and worse than useless criminations. We have been beaten, with as noble and gallant a can didate as ever canvassed a State —beaten not so much by treachery—(for we are not wil ling to admit that the Corporal's guard of poor miserable tools, cheered on by Ixicofocoisrn, are an any way responsible for the result) —as by intrigues, 'feise alarms,' and coalitions of the most disgiaccful and disreputable character. —By Wilmots clamorous fbr Free soil and Free Trade —and compromise men and pro tectionists, duped for the hundredth time by a set of artful demagogues.

SNOW. —The Boston and Pittsburgh pa pers of Tuesday, chronicle a snow storm as having prevailed on Sunday and .Mon day last. A few flakes fell in this neigh borhood. Democrat takes good care to give currency to an expression said to have been made by a whig against the " cursed dutch." Of course this is intended to bring back some who have got tired of being foot-balls for the locofoco leaders, at d because a whig said so, the inference is desired to be drawn that a whig repicsents the whig party. It is not long since we heard a locofoco wish the Dutch and Irish all in , and under the same rule, we suppose are to take it for granted that he represents the locofoco partv just as much as a whig who would give utterance to the language harped upon by the Democrat. KHLIUIOUS I.VROLBRANCE IN POI.ITICB. —Judge Campbell, one of the Judges of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, and a candidate for election on the Democratic ticket, says the Baltimore Sun, has been defeated, although the rest of the Democrat ic ticket is elected by so large a majority. The reason for this defeat is said to be the religious belief of Judge Campbell, lie is a Roman Catholic, and enough have voted against him to leave him in the mi nority. We did not think that such intol erance existed anywhere in the United States, though there is said to be something of the sort in JVew Hampshire, the people there having refused to adopt the new constitution, which removed the old re striction preventing Catholics from hold ing office. It is to be hoped that in both cases, some other cause lies at the bottom of the result. A boy choked his mother to death, in Tipton county, Indiana, a few days ago.

Letter of Henry Clay on the Compromise Measures anil Southern Secession. A letter is published in the Eastern pa pers from the Hon HF.XRY CLAY, in reply to a committee of gentlemen in New York, who had invited him to address a meeting in that city, upon the Compromise mea sures, and the hostility to them which has been recently manifested. Mr. Clay expresses himself strongly in favor of the Fugitive Slave Law, saying that " the necessity of maintaining and en forcing that law unrepealed and without any- modification that would seriously im pair its efficiency, must be admitted by the impartial judgment of all candid men." lie expresses the belief that the law will he sustained, and that the show of opposi tion still made in the North is the cflect ol pride of opinion, and will soon give way to heartv acquiescence ; and that in turn ing to the Southern States " we behold enough to encourage the friends of the Union and but little to excite solicitude and alarm." South Carolina alone furnishes, at pres ent, occasion for profotmd regret and seri ous apprehension, not so much for the se curity of the Union, as for her own peace and prosperity. We are compelled, pain fully and reluctantly, to yield to the force of concurring evidence, establishing that there exists in that State general dissatis faction with, and a general desire to with draw from, the Union ; and that both par ties—that which is for separate State ac tion, and that which insists upon the ne cessity of the co-operation of other States —equally agree as to the degree of rash ness or prudence which characterize them respectively. Mr. CLAY then enters into a close ex amination of the arguments in favor of se cession, none of which he considers tena ble. We quote the most important pas sages : The partizans of this novel and 3trange doc trine attempt to support it on two grounds: First, they contend that by an express amend ment of the Constitution, as all powers not granted to the government of the United States are reserved to the States, or to the people, the power or right of secession is not granted, and that it is therefore retained by the States and the people, and may be exercised at their pleasure. This argument is refuted by cither of two sufficient answers. The contested power can not be retained, if its reservation be incompati ble with the obligations of the constitutional compact. But the constitution was intended to be perpetual, or, which is the same thing, to be of unlimited existence, subject only, from time to time, to such amendments as might be made, in the rnodo which it specifies. It created a more perfect Union, which was to secure the blessings of liberty to the generation which formed it, and to their posterity. The obliga tion which each State voluntarily assumed to the other States, by being admitted into the Union, was, that it would remain perpetually bound with the other States to preserve that Union, for their own benefit, and to inure to the benefit of posterity. To assert, in the face of that obligation, that a State may retire from the Union whenever it pleases, is to assert that a party, bound by a solemn compact to other parties, may cancel or violate the compact whenever it thinks proper, without their consent. In order to secure respect and submission to the Union, the constitution expressly provides "that this constitution and the laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof, and all treaties made, or which shall be made under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law ef the land ; and the judges in every State shall be bound thereby, every thing in the constitution or laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding." Thus each and every one of the States has agreed, not only that its ordinary legislation, but that its constitution, the higher law made by the people themselves in convention, shall, in any cases of conflict, be subordinate to the par amount authorliy of the constitution, laws made ir. pursaance thereof, and treaties of the United States. If, therefore, any State were, either in its Legislature, or in a convention of dele gates of the people, to declare, by the most for mal act, that it had soceded from the Union, such would be nugatory and absolute nullity ; and the people of that Slate would remain bound by the constitution, laws, and treaties of the United States, as fully and perfectly as if the act had never been proclaimed. Hut there is another view also, conclusive against the pretensions of secession being a power reserved to the States under the amend ment of the constitution referred to. The re servation of a power implies its existence in the party reserving it, prior to such reservation, llut when a Siate existed in its independent, scpaiate and unassociated character, it could have had no right of secession, there being no confederacy or other party from which to secede. Secession is incident to union or confederacy, without which it can have no existence, and, unless it is clearly provided for in the compact of Union, out of which it springs, and still more, if it be utterly irreconcilable with that compact, it can have no constitutional or legiti mate foundation. It is contended., however, in the second place, that the right of secession appertains to the States, under and in virtue of their sovereignty. This argument scorns any reliance upon the re servation of powers in the constitution, cuts loose from all the obligations in that instrument, defies the power and authority of the general government, and finds a solution of the authori ty for secession in the sovereignty of the States. What that sovereignty is, it does not deign to define or explain, nor to show one of its attrib utes is to disregard and violate grave compacts. The sovereignty of the States, prior to tlie adoption of the present constitution, was limited and qualified by the articles of confederation. They had agreed among themselves to create a perpetual Union. When, therefore, the thirteen original States passed from under those articles, to the constitution, they passed from a less to a more perfect union, and agreed to further limit ations upon their sovereignty. Under the present constitution, among limita tions and prohibitions upon the sovereignty of States, it is expressly provided, that 44 no State shall enter into any treaty, alliance, or confed eration, grant letters of marque and reprisal, coin money, emit bills of credit, make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts;" and 44 no Stale shall, without the con sent of Congress, lay any duty or tonagc, keep troops or ships of war in time of peace, enter into any' agreement or compact with another State, or with a foreign power, or engage in war, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent danger as to admit of no delay." It may be af firmed, with entire truth, that all the attributes of sovereignty which relate to peace and war, commerce, navigation, friendship and inter course with, and, in short, all that relate to for eign powers, and several of those attributes which relate to the internal administration of the States themselves, are voluntarily surren dered to the general government, and cannot be exercised by the States. The performance of any of the forbidden acts would be null and void, no matter in w hat solemn and authentic form, nor by what State authority, the Legisla ture, a convention of the people themselves of the State, in an aggregate muss, it might be performed. The Constitution of the United States would instantly intervene, vacate the act, and proclaim the overruling, supreme and para mount authority of the constitution, laws and treaties of the Luited States. j It is clear, therefore, that no State can do j anything repugnant to the constitution, laws and > treaties of the United States. M hat it might do, if it were in possession of all its absolute sovereignty, and had never entered into this Union, is a different question. Hut if we sup- j pose, contrary to the historical fact, that the States were absolutely sovereign when the ex isting constitution was adopted, could they cir cumscribe and contract their attributes of sov- ; creignty, by the stipulations and provisions j which are contained in it? All history is full of j examples of the total annihilation of sovereignty ; or nationality, oftener by the power of the sword j and conquest, but sometimes by the voluntary i act of one nation merging itself into another, of \ which we have a striking instance in the case of Texas, in our own country. Assuming that the constitution is a mere com pact between independent nations, or sovereign States, they arc, nevertheless, bound by all the obligations'which the compact creates. They are bound to abstain from all forbidden acts, and to submit to the supremacy of the constitu tion and laws of the United States. But, it will be asked, have they not also the right to judge of the fidelity with which the common government has judged of the common compact ? Yes, most certainly. They have that right, and so has every citizen of the United States, and so has the general government also. The allegod violation of the constitution must be exposed and denounced by all the weapons of reason, of ar gument, and'of ridicule, by remonstrance, pro test, appeals to the judiciary, and to the other States ; by the press, public opinion and all le gitimate means of persuading or influencing it. If, after the employment of all or any of these peaceful methods, the government of the United States, sustained by a constitutional majority of the nation, persist in retaining the obnoxious law, there is no alternative but obedience to the law, on the part of the minority, or open, un disguised, manly and forcible resistance to its execution. Mr. Clay then says that the right of Se cession is sometimes confounded with rev olution, and enters into an argument, show ing the dillerence between them. Concerning the remedy that should be applied in case of an attempt to dissolve the Union, Mr. Clay speaks very clearly in the following passages : But suppose wc should be disappointed, and that the standard should be raised of open re sistance to the Union, the constitution and the laws, what is to be done ? There can be but one possible answer. The power, the authority and dignity of the government ought to be main tained, and resistance put down at every hazard. Government, in the fallen and depraved state of man, would lose all respect, and fall into dis grace and contempt, if it did not possess poten tially, and would not, in extreme cases, practi cally exercise the right of employing force. The theory of the constitution of the United States assumes the necessity of the existence and the application of force, both in our for eign and domestic relations. Congress is ex pressly authorized "to raise and support ar mies,"' "to provide and maintain a navy," and " to provide for calling forth the militia to exe cute the laws of the Union, suppress insur rections and repel invasions." The duty of ex ecuting the laws and suppressing insurrections is without limitation or qualification; it is co extensive with the jurisdiction of the United States, and it comprehends every species of re sistance to the execution of the laws, and every form of insurrection, no matter under what auspices or sanction it is made. Individuals, public meetings, States, may re solve, as often as their tastes or passions may prompt them to resolve, that they will forcibly oppose the execution of the laws, and secede from the Union. Whilst these resolutions re main on paper, they are harmless ; but the mo ment a daring hand is raised to resist, by force, the execution of the laws, the duty of enforcing them arises, and if the conflict which may ensue should lead to civil war, the resisting party, having begun it, will be responsible for all the consequences. The following id the closing paragraph of the letter : In conclusion, gentlemen, let us enjoy the proud consolation afforded by the conviction that a vast majority of tiie people of the United States, true to their forefathers, true to them selves, and true to posterity, are firmly and im movably attached to this L nion ; that they see in it a safe and sure, if not the sole, guaranty of liberty, of internal peace, of prosperity, and of national happiness, progress, and greatness; that its disolution woulfl be followed by endless wars among ourselves, by the temptation or in vitation to foreign powers to take part in them, arid finally, by foreign subjugation, or the estab lishment of despotism; and that 44 united we stand—divided we fall."

MORE FILIBCSTIERISM. —The fact that a num ber of Texan Rangers and a company of U. S. Troops had joined CARAVAJAL in an attempt to overthrow the Mexican Authority between the Rio Grande and the Sierra Madrc—par ticipation in which by persons from this country is a violation of our treaties with Mexico, and of all international good faith—has led President FU I.MORE to issue a Proclamation on the sub ject, which will be found in another part of this paper. The National Intelligencer is of the opin ion that this revolt is merely to get possession of the Mexican Custom Houses in that region, and to rob them of the goods stored therein, large quantities in amount and value of which bad been seized in an attempt to smuggle them across our border into that country in violation of its tariff laws. It says:— 4 lt may be that the two hundred Filibustiers who banded together ill Texas, and, before they heard of the fate of LOPEZ, marched towards the sea-board to join the Cuban invasion, have, in default of any other liberating enterprise, turned their attention towards the coffers and custom-houses of Tam aulipas, or formed the nucleus of a large inva ding force.' It does not appear that this razzia is intended for any other purpuse than that of robbery, like those of the caterans of the High lands to levy black mail on the Lowlands of Scotland, unless the inefficiency, cowardice or want of ability of the Mexican Government to resist and overcome the-e Filibustiers, may en able them to gather strength, and give to their i avages the consequence of a Revolution.— Yurie lit publican.
