Our “law and order” loping neighbor of the Gazette will please notice the above fact eov. JOHNSTON'S ABOLITIONISM. Gov. Johnston agrees with the Abolitionists is demanding that the right of trial by jury shall be incorporated in the fugitive slave law, and this is the amendment which he claims in the name of the Whig party, and which he is now advocating stamp, aided by the position in which the Whig party hoe placed him. Now, it is very easy in speaking on such a sub ject to make a parade of justice to the. free colored man, and reverence for the right of trial by jniy; but these are the mere pretences of po litical and personal Toguery, by which the inno cent are sometimes entrapped, and with which the meanest hypocrisy clothes itself in order to conceal its odious deformity. One of our covenants, in uniting together as states, is that fugitive slaves shall he delivered op, and all truly honest oitizons are determined that, so far as they have power, this covenan t shall be faithfully fulfilled. But the open abo litionist, with bold dishonesty, repudiates the covenant, and declares that he will throw all the obstacles that he can in the way of its ful filment. For this reason, he wishes to make the legal procedure so tedious and expensive that the Bervioea of the slave will not repay the oost of his recovery, and thus effectually to dis courage the pursuit of such fugitive. And to increase the ■ expense nnd trouble of the pursuit, and the improbability of its suc cess, he wishes a trial by jury. Why? For the very obvious reason that a verdict is the unanimous finding of twelve men, and he hopes that, in many or even in most cases, there may be at least one man on the jury who will be so regardless of the laws of the land and his. own political covenant and his own solemn oath, as to refuse to find against a slave, even on the clearest evidence. We say that the open Abolitionist, with bold dishonesty, avows these as ids motives for de manding the amendment, and we can readily see that there may be in his mind eame charity for the slave, by which he excuses his political dishonesty. Not so, however, with Gov. John ston. With him there is no excuse that he is guided by charity for the slave,- or apprehension!! for the colored free man. He seeks a violation of the constitutional rights of the master out of no love for any man hut himself. Under the cloak of generosity to the colored mon, he tries to conceal the lowest and most hyprocritieal sel fishness. He seeks nothing but the votes of abolitionists, and those who. are infeoted with abolition sympathies. By the course whioh he hoe adopted, he re- pudlates the principles of the Union Whigs and sots up for himself. Will the Whigs of Pennsyl vania still support him ? ' Ho denies their faith, Will they Still acknowledge him as their - leader? Will they allow one, whom they have raised out of a very low pit, to change their creed,- or to draw them into advocating suoh principles ? Will they sustain one who is pnblishing, in their name, suoh political .heresies? Honesty de mands that they should pnblioly disown him. iffl- By the late treaty with the Sioux, the United States obtain the title to twenty-ant mil lion aera of land lying east of a tine drawn from the head waters of the* Bed river to the north, to interseot the north-western comer of the State of lowa* The purchase- includes part of the magnificent Blue Earth river country, and that around the head waters of the Des Moines and St. Peters rivers.

It would require a laboring man or mechanic to livt and work too hundred and tuty-tuytert, at one dollar per day, to make this pun. Within the lost week there seems not to have been so much alarm in the Eastern cities, about money matters, os had been manifest for two or three weeks previous; but money still commands from 12 to -15 per cent.. Indeed, it is not won derful that a degreo of alarm should have been felt: for the rapid and very extensive 1 contrac tion by two or three of the leading-New York Banks, deeply affected a large number of the commercial men of that city, and such acir oumstanoe affects not New York alone, but every Atlnntio city. Capitalists, however, would now seem to be relaxing a little, and this, while in creasing their profits, will, for a time at least, help those who are now embaraesed, and perhaps save many of them from ultimate ruin. Wo are inclined to think, however, that a crisis is ap proaching, for which it would be well to be pre pared. The banks of the whole country have swelled their issues to a wonderful extent with .in the last eighteen months; and 'unless. they shall give a long time to those now indebted, to them, and shall manage their own affairs judici ously, we look upon a crash as inevitable within a year at most. In this we may he mistaken, and we conld hope that we shall bo; -but there are no creditors so heartless as Bank corpora tions ; and, therefore, we look upon it os an in evitable consequence of the immense expansion that has taken place, that we shall have a cor responding revulsion. The eastern merchants have large sums due to them; and unless these amounts can be realized, many of them itiust fail; and a few failures of suoh as have been regarded as heavy houses, would soon sot the ball in mo tion that would crush hundreds of others. Bat there is a way by which the severity of the blow that may be expeoted will be lessened; and that may oanso it to he scarcely felt: that is,—let all those indebted to the merchants pay what they owe, or at least as much os they can, at tho ear liest practicable moment; and they will find that even their own business will bo improved by it For there never was a monetary crisis that did not occasion panio, and in the midst of a panic even those most able to buy aro often deterred from doing so, under the apprehension that mat ters may yet get worse. [AUGUST 29, 1861, Wo do not Bee, amid the temporary panic that has beon created, that any of the more substan tial stocks of the country have suffered; odd, indeed, bat a slight effect has been produced up on those known as Fancies; but the former of these must suffer in case of a serious pressure, and the latter of course become of very ques tionable value. Effects produced in the money market are, however, generally sudden in their manifestation; and all those interested in stocks of every description would do well to know, if possible, the real state of tho Companies in which they are interested. All make a fair show until a time of embarassment and panic; and then, too often, those which had seemed to be most fairly conducted, prove to be among themost unsound and corrupt. Every day we are receiving additional evi dence that the Democracy of Pennsylvania are for James Buchanan as thoncXt Democratic can didate for tho Presidency. Tho following resolution was adopted by the! Democrats of Northampton county, at their meeting at Easton, on the 18th insti Resolved, That as for half a century the great ; Stite of Pennsylvania has never been permitted to fill the Presidential chair from among its own people, and has thus as it were silently admitted her own inferiority, it is time to abandon the position, and to vindicate our own dignity, by presenting ths name of James Bu chanan, whose commanding talents, sound de mocracy—and matured experience os a states man and a Diplomatist so signally fit him for the station. The Democratic Convention of Lebanon coun ty met on Thursday last, and appointed Messrs. David B. Marshall and William Murray, dele gates to the State Convention, and unanimously instructed them to support the nominstion of Hon. James Buchanan for the Presidency. The following is the resolution of instructions; Resolved, That the name and fame of James Buchanan are dear to every trne Pennsylvanian and his long faithful and able services to the democratic party and to the country entitle him to the highest honors in their gift, and we there fore instruct our delegates to the next State Convention to use every honorable means to se cure his nomination for the office of President of the United States by that body, and in suoh case not to vote for any man as delegate to the Democratic National Convention, who is not openly and avowedly in favor of his nomination for that office. The Lebanon Advertiser, the organ of the .Democracy in that County, has placed the name ot Mr Buchanan at its mast head accompanied by a powerful article in favor of his nomina tion. Lehigh county is also for Mr. Buchanan, as will be seen by the following extractof Col. For ney, Editor of the Pennsylvania, dated Allentown, Aug. 23d: • J. W. Forney, Pemuylvanian Office. —Our De mocratic County Meeting was held in the coun ty to-day, and was the largest ever held in this county.

Numerous delegates from Philadel phia, New York, Ohio, and elsewhere were pres ent. An opening prayer was pronounced by Dr. Duffield, of Detroit, after which Bishop Potter addressed the Convention in a foroible and elo quent speech. The afternoon session was em ployed in examining the credentials of delegates. Ta the evening, Samuel W. Bates, of Boston, ad dressed the Convention on education. He was followed by several gentlemen who dissented from some of his peculiar views. Mr. Giddings took the occasion to denounce the Fagitivc Slave Law. . On the 20th, the association was opened by prayer from Rev. Dr. Hare, of Philadelphia, Bishop Potter, the President, enjoined the mem bers to confine themselves to the proper busi ness of the Association, to preserve a proper dignity, and to abstain from all boisterous de monstrations of approval or disapproval. The Committee on Finance reported $lB5 in Treas ury. Several reports from committees were made.. An Amendment to the constitution was moved and postponed. A motion for a commit tee to examine and report upon a system of Pho nography, was laid upon the table. Several ad dresses wero then made by different delegates, and the association adjourned till the evening.' On the 21st, in the evening (wo havo not be fore us the proceedings of the morning Session) there was on address on Female Education by Professor Agnew. At the close of the lecture, various features which it presented wero taken up and discussed by the Association. On the 23d, the Convention was opened by prayer from Bishop Potter. On motion, a committee of three wero ap appolnted to report to the next annual meeting of this Association on the subject of Female Education. The chair appointed Cook, of N.

Sun ' 1 • ► r •> «W ~ .’■ Defeat* >l-i "T '.^vVy.' i-t}' Stcamflliip City of PittsTjurgli ; We findthefollowing description oflheabove magnificent steamship in the Philadelphia hedg er, -which will be read with interest by most of our citizens: : : The Steamship City of Pittsburgh.—Timneaset, now fitting out at New York as the third for the tine, of Philadelphia and Liverpool steamships, will bo readyfor trial in about a montb,niidvrill probably sail from this port on her first voyage to Liverpool about the first of October, under the command of Capt. Wm. C. Stotesbury, one of our most experienced commanders. The Pittsburgh is 260 feet long on deck, 40 feet beam, and 82 feet depth of hold, and measures 2800 tons burthen. She was built by Messrs. Perrine, Patterson & Stock, of Wiltiamsburgh, and is considered by judges to be as fine a speci men of marine architeohire’ as New York can turn out. Her engines were built at the West Point foundry, and are now nearly completed.— The engines are on the trunk principle, of which a specimen built by Messrs. J. T. Sutton & Co., was pot on board the Venezuelan steamship Li bertador, fitted out at this port this winter.— The cylinders of the Pittsburgh are 86 J inches, stroke, working direct action. Her propeller! is of iron; with three blades, and is 16feet 4 inches in diameter and its weight is nine tons. The rigging is nearly complete.; She has three masts, haring square sails, and the mizzen, fore and aft sails. She has three decks, with a spa cious dining saloon on the upper deck. Though not quite so long as the City of Manchester, now in port, she has more beam, giving her an in creased tonnage and greater carrying qualities. Her bow is likewise sharper, , with more of the dipper about her whole appearance,; and it is thought she will make better time than the Eng lish propeller. , Hews from Hantoazaa. By the arrival of the brig Henry Marshall, Captain West, at Bristol, R. 1., we have received nine days’ later news from Matanzas. Captain West says that the rebels had broken out afresh on the eastern part of the island; that the government had been successful in putting them down, and had mode a great many captures; but on the western part of the island the rebels, had been rather successful. The government is trying its best to keep everything os quiet as posable. They are expecting large forces from the United States to invade the island. j, Captain W. also says he heard from a private and very reliable source, that great uneasiness and dissatisfaction prevailed among the govern ment troops. . ' Fine Cambric HsndkerbhUfr. A most woudorfal piece of linen has been wo ven for the World’B Exhibition in the North of Ireland, near Worringstown, by a weaver named George Haddock. It is a web of fine cambric handkerchiefs. Small print can be read through it, and yet the web is so dose and compact that a single thread could not be distinguished with out the aid of a microscope, or rather web glass; the cambric, when held up to the tight, looks tike a fine airy fabric. In the production of this beautiful gossamer looking cambric, Mr, Had dock almost realised with classic fiction ascribed to the performance of Arachine, who, as mythol ogists inform us, was converted into a spider on. account of equalling that ingenious little archi tect in the production of fine webs.— Hunt's Merchant Magazine. Suicide.— On Wednesday of last week, Mr. Matthew Barr, of Ross township, in this county, left home for the purpose of going to a neigh bor’s house. Not returning within a reasonable time, and the family finding that he had not been at the place he said be was going, search was instituted—the alarming apprehensi. a forcing itself upon the minds of his friends that he had been murdered. The following day the melan choly fact was revealed that he had rode into the river, above Wellsrille, deliberately jumped off his horse into the water, and was drowned. The body was recovered, and committed to its last resting place at Wellsrille. Mr. Barr was a higly respectable citizen, about 50 years of age, and in good circumstances. It is supposed that ho was laboring nnder temporary insanity: ! though the cause that produced this state of mind is not even surmised. —Steubenville Messen ger August 27.

An older brother, Robert Hairis, Esq., | survives her, and her descendants to tho third j generation were gathered around her when sho died. Fata*.
