Pierce and Slavery—More Affidavits. Y\ e consider the testimony already adduced, touching the character of Gen. Pierce's speech at New Boston, perfectly conclusive. It proves that the General among his friends and neighbors in New Hampshire, expresses statements that are well calculated to arrest the " perfect gush of enthusiasm" with which his nomination was Wailed by- Mr. Forsyth and Mr. Soule, and the Secessionists and Fire caters generally. Wo have nothing to say in regard to those sentiments, except that the New Hampshire democracy have very sol emnly affirmed on various occasions that they are such as the New Hampshire Democracy entertain. The admitted fact, which appears from the " Life of Pierce," published by the Democratic Central Committee, that Gen. Pierce averred at Manchester, on the 20th of November, 1 *#o, that "the men who would dis solve the Cnion did not hate or deplore sla very more than he did." This admitted fact renders the alleged New Boston speech a matter of less interest, except from the deni als of Gen. Pierce and his friends, which are calculated to convey a false impression of the tacts in the case. We have never entertained a doubt that the report of Mr. Fuss of the General's remarks on slavery at New Boston was essentially anil substantially correct. '1 he most skeptical can entertain no doubt of its accuracy as to the immediate points in controversy after reading the affidavits which follow: Mayor s (Iff ice, ) MA.M IIK -TER, August 14, 1832.

T. Foss, and I then believed the report to be a true and correct re port of said speech, uud spoke of it as being such at the time ; and I never heard any per son sav that they doubted the correctness of the report until it became necessary to contradict it to save General Pierce's credit with his Southern friends.

C. W. CAMPBELL. Sworn, July 27, 1832, liefore JOSEPH COCHRAN, Jr.. Justice of the Peace. I, Rodney McCollum, of New Boston, in the county of Hillsborough, and State of New Hampshire, depose and say, that I was present at a political meeting holdeu in this town on the second of January, 1852, which was addressed by General Franklin Pierce: and while 1 cannot now testify to the words *ised, 1 do recollect that he spoke so decidedly against slavery and the fugitive Slave law, that 1 then thought, and made the remark to a number of persons, that he, General Pierce, was as strong an anti-slavery man as any we had about here. RODNEY McCOLLUM. Sworn, July 27, 1852, before JOSEPH COCIIRAN, Jr., Justice of the Peace. I, E. W.

Ayer, Esq., and General Franklin Pierce, and that 1 heard A. T. FOBS ask him several questions, and heard Gen. Pierce's replies. I distinctly recollect of hearing General Franklin Pierce Lay that be had the most re volting feeling at the giving up of a slave; diat he loathed the Fugitive Slave law, and other expressions of similar import concern ing slavery, and the Fugitive Slave law. E. W. GRIFFIN. Sworn, August 10, 1852, before ROBERT MOORE, Justice of the Peace. I, Nathan Hall, of New Boston, county of Hillsborough, and State of New Hampshire, •laposc and say, that I attended a political meeting holden in this town on the second day of January, 18 r 2, at which meeting Gen. i rank lin Pierce made a political speech, and I distinctly recollect that he spoke of slavery and the fugitive Slave law as a moral wron o arid revolting to his feelings. Let us see if Mr. Norris and Mr. Hibbard will undertake to impeach the veracity of these witnesses. We take it for granted that the deponents entertain precisely the same feelings with re gard to slavery that have been so repeatedly exhibited, in a marked public and official manner, by both Mr. Hibbard and Mr. Nor ris ; but we do not think that on this account they are not to be believed upon oath. Of what value are general certificates, vague and sweeping disclaimers, against the positive and specific averments on oath of men oj' unim pe ached truth ? General Pierce's own repudiation of Mr. Foss's report amounts to nothing. ItisinGen. Pierce's power, if he can do so consistently with truth, to deny specifically the language on the slavery question attributed to him at New Boston, and to state as well as he can recollect the precise words which he really employed on that occasion. He owed it to himself and his party- —if lie took any notice ot the report —to disclaim it in such a man ner that liis disclaimers would " stick." lie contents himself with saying that the " pre tended report is ail " entire misrepresenta tion.'' Now we know from a dozen quarters, indeed it is admitted, that a large part of the report is not a misrepresentation. On some points all the witnesses <>n both sides agree. But Gen. Pierce says it is an " entire misre presentation." This state of the case makes i f necessary for General Pierce to write a letter in which he shall correct his testimony in such a man ner that it shall not conflict witli that of all the oiler witnesses. General Pierce has undertaken to impeach the correctness <fa report made at tlio* time, and now sworn to, by a Baptist <1 -rgyman in good standing: and that report now confirmed by several other witnesses. \\ e have still other affidavits, which we shall publish at our Convenience. .Meanwhile, will the I'niou fur nish us with one of the several letters which it has seen from General Pierce denying .lie "calumny ' under his own signature? It may he more specific and distinct to thu points in controversy. Whig Mass Meeting.

In looking over an old volume of the Jour nals of Congress, we find Pierce voting against the old revolutionary soldiers, indiau fighters and widows. On page 130, House Journal for Dec., 1833, the following resolu tion appears: Resolved, That a select committee be ap pointed. w hose duty it shall be to inquire into the expediency of so extending the provisions of the act of Congress, passed 7th June, 1832, granting pensions to certain classes of troops therein named, as to embrace in its provisions those who were engaged in the wars against the Indians subsequent to the close of the rev olutionary war. This resolution was debated for eleven days, at different times, and on the 11th of Febru ary, 1834, Mr. Chilton Allen demanded the previous question, the call was sustained, and the main question was put, and the resolution adopted hv a vote of 120 yeas to 80 nays — FRAX KLiX PIER('E voting against the res olution! Among those who voted for the re solution are the names of the following gen tlemen—John Quincy Adams, Chilton Allen, Kufus Choate, Thomas Corwin, Edward Ev erett, Richard M. Johnson, Millard Fillmore —and the following from Tennessee: John Bell, John Blair, David Crocket, David W. Dickinson, John B. Forester, Cave Johnson, Luke Lea, James K. Polk, James Staridifer, Samuel Bunch, and William M. Inge. The Committee reported a bill—that bill provided for the widows of officers and sol diers, and PIERCE voted against it! In 1841, the House revived the measure, passed the bill; it went to the Senate, there it met with the same FRANK PIERCE again, who spoke and voted against it! See. Congression al Globe, 27th Congress, page Jl7, good dem ocratic authority.

The operations in Flour and Grain in this Market, since the last English steamer, are restrained hy considerable caution on the part of buyers, and by some distrust iu the result of the crops on the other side. Prices to-day gave wa v under enhanced supplies, and the unwillingness of speculators to move freely in advance of the actual orders re ceived from abroad. Flour is quoted 12] to 19 cents the barrel below the extreme rates of the week, and Wheat from 3 to 5 cents the bushel less. The export demand, however, has been decisive enough to sensibly help the shipping interests, and freights have recover ed from their previous low rates. The caution of our home speculators is scarcely to he regretted. Nothing is more uncertain than English harvest weather, and no definite opinion of can be form ed for some weeks to come, while nothing is so hurtful to regulate trade as a premature movement in sending forward supplies on American account, not likely to be taken in London and Liverpool, except at a loss, in case the harvest should prove a good one. The chances arc we think, that the partial short-coming of the Wheat Crop, on the other side, will justify from $4.50 to $5.50 lor Flour in the course of the Fall months; and it is almost certain the Potatoe disease will be the means of keeping up an active shipping demand for Indian Corn. The crops of Cotton in the United States, as we have before had occasion to remark, are un usually largo and promising, and the country will be able to spare, at moderate prices, more than double—and if need be, quad ruple the quantity sent forw; 1 last season.
