members of the People's party, composing a large por

conciliate those who are honestly noting with us, they
should not object to such unequivocal declarations of
principles as may nasure our delegation a welcome re

much slave territory as South Carolina. They aro just
upon the point of nicking their final and crowning de
mand, that. by virtu., of On acme decision, thee have a
right to hold their slaves to Slasseehusetts and Penn
sylvania.
Under thin construction of the Constitution, we of
Pennsylvania know not how soon the slave master may
b ing his ehattels within our borders, and hold them
among lib by authority of law. Tito question now us,
not how to hoop slavery outer tho Tel rttories, but how
to keno it out nfthefrer States; not how to counts reed
its debasing effects at a distance, but how to avert its
dexolntinx pollution from our own hearth-stones.
It is evident, to every observing mind, that the wel
faro of our country is bound Kiln the slavery question.
Its solution cannot he evaded or postponed, and parties
must distinctively declare their positions on this vital
issue. We make no war on the institution of slavery in
the States of the Union. We regard it as the patriots
of the Revolution end the fathers of the Constitution re
'larded it, to be a giant evil in morale and in political
economy ; bet. whilst deploring its existence there, we
recognise it to be under the proteotion of State sove
reignties, and not to be interfered with in those States,
except by their own citizens.

Notiee3 of New Books.
From B. McHenry, 408 Walnut street, (tole
agent to the publishers,) we have. received the 11th
volume of the new edition of Cooper's Novels, il
lustrated by Darley, which is in course of publica
tion by IV. A. Townsend do Co., New York. We
have repeatedly eulogized the getting-np and truly
superb execution of this most beautiful and truly
American series. Darley's drawings, reproduced
on steel and wood ; tinted paper, new type, end
handsomobinding, it contains all that can Interest
the admirers of Cooper, our greatest American
novelist. The now volume contains "Lionel Lin
coin," a romance of the Revolution, aret publisbod
in 1825, fruit of the author's mature genius. Re
wrote no book with more care, and his descriptions
of the outbreak of the Revolution are spirited to a
degreo. The two vignettes, after parley, which
embellish this volume, are noble specimens of that
great artist's talent.
Captain Randolph B. Marcy, U. S. Army, has
written a Handbook for Overland Expeditions, en
titled "The Prairie Traveller," which Messrs.
Harper, Now York, have published, with maps,
illustrations, and Itineraries of the principal routes
between the Mississippi and the Pacific. A greet
deal of valuable information, acquired by the au
thor during a quarter of a century's experience in
frontier life, is here condensed into a small space,
and the book, it cannot be doubted, will be found
exceedingly useful to prairie travellers.
The Harpers have published an amusing volume
of North Carolina sketches, with capital Illustra
tions by John MoLenan. It is Called "Fisher's
River Scenes and Characters," and professes to be
written by Stitt, "who was raised than," They
aro very humorous, and have the merit of being
short as well as racy. They represent people and
things, in Fisher's River vicinity, as they were to
bo found in 1820-20. We detect a bit of plagiarism
In Uncle Davy Lane's " Ride in the Peach Tree,"
pp. 0944. Apeach-stone shot Into an old buck's
head, takes root there, and, in fulness of time,the
buck runs about, bearing a peach tree In fruitage
right bkween his shoulders. The same exceed
ingly tough yarn is to be found in the veritable
adventures of Aron Munchaneen, where it was
first printed some eighty years ago.
Miss Harriet B. McKeever, author of "Sun
shine," " The Flonneod Robe," and other books,
has just published another volume, entitled
" Edith's Ministry," to which she traces the his
tory of an Old Mold—a elms In society generally
sneered at, but who generally contrive to do a
great deal of good, by their singleness of purpose
and good feelings. This is by far the beat of Miss
McKeever's productions, and has been written,
like the previous volumes, under circumstances
unfavorable to composition. She is a teacher,
with perpetual daily labors, and her writing is
necessarily performed with her mind disturbed
and wearied by her hard but useful toil for daily
bread.
The ion. 'William Elliott, of South Carolina
whose contributions to sporting literature, over the
signatures of " Piscator " and " Venator," are
well known, has collected his sketches, with addi
tions, into volume, neatly illustrated by Derby a
Jackson, New York. It is called " Carolina
Sports by Land and Water," and 'naiades inti
dents of devil-fishing, wild-oat, deer, and boar
hunting, Ac. A lively, well-written, readable
book it le, and we endorse it as such.
The Rev. John Cumming, 1). D , a Scottish
clergyman in London, who makes # great many
books out of the intellect quantity of materials.
and who believes that this world is within a very
short time of its final Jlestruction by Are, lately
published a lugubrious volume. setting forth his
views, and has entitled it "The Great Tribula
tion; or, Things coming on the Earth." It is a
volume which a sane mind could scarcely have
produced, so extravagant and extraordinary are
many of its opinions and assertions. Dr. Cum
ming, who, always makes the most of an idea, put
this strange book out as a " first series." Rudd a
Carleton, of :tiow York, have republished it, in a neat
form. We recommend it to persons who have
leisure and patience to grope through a volume of
ecoisitlirldireerdy idatitudia.-..- .

Sheldon & Company, New York, publish a vo
lt:tate of Sermons by the Rev. Dr. Richard Fuller,
of Baltimore. They are good, practical discourses,
much above the usual overage of inch especial

The killing of Senator Broderick is here regard

his life by such a course, he would have been

General Lane probably thought of introduoing

"It may be interesting to the readers of The
Pres' in New Hampshire to know that the preei•
dent of the first Douglas meeting in New Hamp
shire has been elected a delegate to the Charleston
Convention. In December, 184 when the Le.
compters swindle was first broached in Congress,
the Democratic press in Now Hampshire, without
a single exception, either defended the measure
itself or maintained a neutral petition. George
W. Stevens, F l , of Dover, then of Concord, called
a mootingof the Democracy of the city of Concord,
under the call of the Democratic Workingmen's
Club, and was chosen president of the club. These
meetings were kept up during the debate on the
Leoompton swindle in Congress. They were, in
fact, Douglas meetings, and were then denounced
by prominent leaders in the city and State—men
who now claim to be first and ' all right.' Mr.
Stevens then told them that in less than two years
the some doctrine that he then advocated, and has
ever since advocated, would be the doctrine of the
Democracy of New Hampshire It has been in
one section of the State, at least, and Mt. Stevens
in spite of custom-house cliques and demagogues,
has been chosen a delegate to the Charleston Con
vention, and will give his vote for the man whom
be has defended when his friends In New Hamp
shire were not so numerous as at present."
The official vote of Massachusetts at the late
election has been declared. The total is 108534,
which is a smaller vote than has been polled for
many years, and but little larger than in the me
morable contests between Everett and Morton,

The Governor, with characteristic wide-swaks
ness, desiring , to discover if the rift of tigilanci
was as fully developed in the guardians of the plane
as be should like it. bethought himeelf to try the
old strategic idea of earnatenng by the sentinels in

Washington, it is true, and many generals of a
later day, bad played the seine cid rune ; and, the
soundness of the guards they tested being endorsed
by their promptitude, all that these werthies ,had
to do was to make themeelves known or give the
countersign and pass on But the Governor, in lila
contempt, doubtletet for adopting the old method
entire—played out as it already was—did not go to
the trouble of making himself au fair for an affair
of the kind. He leafed tosspiciously about the lines
of the camp for &short time, and fealty approached

RV•Wubingtes Irving probably died from an
enlargement of the heart, as his physicians were
aware be was in danger of sodden death from
that disease. Gov. Morgan, Moses H. Grinnell,
and Mr. 0. D. Morgan, paid their respects to
Mr. Irving on the afternoon of Thanksgiving Day.
He was in his usual cheerful spirits, surrounded
by his relatives, and after a pleasant interview
the visiten bid the genial author farewell, little
thinking It would be fbrthe last time. The great
popularity of Mr. Irving's works may be inferred
from the fact that during the part-ten years, Mr.
Geo. P. Putnam; the - publisher, has disported of
nearly 600,000 volumes. The query, "Why there

aware of the talents of Mr. Randolph Rogers as a
sculptor, and ehould most willingly stand to him
for a bust, bat I have some time since come to a
fixed determination to stand or aft for no more like
nesses, either In painting or sculpture, and have
declined repeated and urgent solicitations on the
ibiNA. The last one I declined was from Mr.
William B. Astor, who wished it for the Astor Li
brary. I offered him, however, the use of a model
of a bust executed some years since by Mr. Ball
Hughes, and which at the time was considered by
my hinds an excellent likeness. Of this Mr. Astor
hvd a copy made, (by, I think, Mr. Brown, of
Brooklyn,) which is now in the Aetor. Library.
Should the Mercantile Library Association be dis
pried to bare a similar copy made, the model by
Mr. Ball Hughes, which is In the possession of one
of my relatives, is at their disposition.

be more intensely gratifying.
