CUIPAION.—The National Era • suggests, in order to promote union and harmony in the Anti-Nebraska political elements, that the Republican Executive, Committee, appointed by tke Pittsburgh bonvention, address the call for the Philadelphia Convention, "To the People of the United States, without distinction of Party, ' who are determined :to make the Question of Freedom - in the Territories the one groat issue F l of the canvass l" We rejoice to see cheering .i sages di' a strong desire on the part of men who have heretofore acted with different parties, to tilok all previous party and political differences, • and to unite on the one vital issue whioh Is now , pressing upon the country, and which can no longer be delayed. Nothing will give es more satisfaction than to nesiet in promoting this union, and we are ready to yield anything which will not sacrifice the principle of Freedom in the Territories itself, for the purpose of securing the great object we all hsve in view. Some difficulty may arise about the name by 1 which the union Forty may be known. Names for political parties are of but little consequence • only so far as they are thesigne of Ideas, yet they are oonvenlent and necessary to precision and harmonious organization. This union party will be composed of men who have heretofore been known as Democrats, Whip, Freescalers, Ameri cans, and Republicans. Shall any of these names be the synonym of the political Idea of the party, and the designation of which it shall be known, or shall a new one be adopted ? It is plain that Democrat will not do, as it is I the name of another party, holding oppoeito ' Ideas, and is now, whatever is its true meaning, and whatever idea it may formerly have repro- Seated, the synonym of pro-slavery, including the aggressions, the aggrandizement, and the nationality of the pecttliar institution. The term Whig will not answer, as It repre sents political ideas and measures objectionable to some Anti Nebraska men, and obnoxious to others, and is no mixed up with settled and ex• plotted issues ea to render its use at present impossible. ' The term American is, in partizan politics, a epecifie technical ides; and does not any more represent the idea of the campaign than Whig or Democrat. Some Americans are far slavery I In .Kaneas, while others are opposed to It, while all of them agree in certain specific principles in relation to foreign emigration and naturalized z eitizens. Republican-Americana, which has been adopted in New Hampshire, contains the idea at tame in the campaign, bat it also contain" more, Which may be repugnant to many honest Anti- Nebraska voters. If weirieek to unite all the ititi•lfebineks elements, we must use no terms 'Which will convey an idea repugnant to any. Fraud, sounds well, and seems appropriate, but it has ideals connected with it tot designed to be pressed in this canvass. Thb term Republican is both the oldest and latest name for a political party. The name Re publican represented the party of the people; the popular party, in She earlier days of the Re public, when there were only two parties known, the Federal and the-Republican. It was lost on the disruption of the cld parties, and the firma- Ron of new ones, in the campaigns which fol lowed Hr. Alearoe's last election. It has lately been revived to repreeent the idea of opposition to the extension of !Livery into the territories of the nation. It represents that idea at present, and that alone, and as that idea is to be the great bane of the Preeidential canvass, It would seem to be the appropriate term of designation ?or the Anti-Nebraska union party. There can 4rtalnly be to objection to it, except that it has been the name of, a party that has been in existence long enough to possess an independent position, and has come into political competi tion with the other existing parties; and voter, Who hare opposed the organization, but not the principle, may be unwilling to be called by the name. If this feeling exists to any extent, and . is any bar to union, no Republican will insist upon it, although the fftnese of the name, as rep resenting the Idea at - issue, and nothing else, 'past be apparent to all. To denominate the party "essei•Adosiedstration' , . is both awkward and • incorrect, and victory would destroy its name. It would then not be the anti-Admitdstration party. It would not be gorrest term, as the anti-Nebraska Organization Will not comprehend all the anti-Admintstra- Ron voters. There is a large anti-Administra tion party in the Southern States in favor of making Kansas a Slave State, and there are many persons opposed 'to the administration in tie Free States who are willing to ignore the great questionaltogether, or to take the South ern view of it. 'As we said above, the name is of no Goose qterioN so it represents the political Idea which hi at stake, to the public This Is very , hi:wort/int For all the opponents of the prasen `administration cordially to agree on the chief ‘; /*mere be made in the coming campaign, is jirrspoesible: The anti-Administration voters are ' oomposed of men of three classes of opinions in regard t o the extension of slavery; those egninet it,rhoee for it, and those indifferent. It is the former class — that is expected to compose the sari-Nebraska forces in t he coming strugg:e.— Any attempted union on the hula simply of oppo- Bitten to ties present adMiniatratton, will result in one !Arty to It being °bested, end in s Boa disruption. That thero can be no sash union the scenes exhibited at the late Philadelphia Xonvention conclusively :show. There WOB bond of union in that one higher end stronger than mere opposition to the administration, bra ft *could not prevent a violent &eruption. TheCpten or the campaign, es entertained by the best patriots and truest Mende of Freedom intho country, Is to ley oxide nit existing issues ezoopt one, and all existing differences which we not comprehended in 'this ons iI3Cle.

KASSAB Lzotarxruni.—The legislature of this new State, oiler electing U. S. Senators, pro ceeded to decide upon its course of action. On the 6th, a :leer special message from Governor Rontssou was received. He said that as there was a difference of opinion to regard to the right of law-making by the Assembly, and the con struction of his 'message to it, it was proper for film' to state that ho wished to recommend no ware to be taken in opposition to the United States Goiernment or the Territorial Govern ment. The only object souglit to be attained, was to make each provision as was indispensi ble to the action of a State, especially to its ac tion as a member of the Union, prior to its ad mission. The legislature then adopted o resolution set ting forth that the laws adopted by, it were not intended to go into effect until the State wee ad mitted into the Union by an sot of Congrese. All that is to be done is preliminary to each admis aloe, and dependent upon it. Junta Cosccuto, of New York, who occupied a prominent place among the politicians of that State, and was an eminent member of the Whig party, has lately published an able and interest ing letter getting forth the reasons which lead him to regard the success of the Republican movement as itssential to the peace and harmony of the Union, and to the general welfare of the Confederacy. He gives to it hie unqualified ad hesion. The letter derives additional significance from the fact that Judge Conkling has long been an intimate personal and political friend of Mr. Fillulbre, by whom when, President, he was ap pointed United States Minister to Mexico, and has never before toted with any party which had for its object resistatioe to the aggressions of Slavery. Former political connections, there fore, have had nothing to do with his determina tion to act hereafter with the Republicans. TEE New York Herald annouoces that steps are being taken to conga monies doe government from various defaulters who hate heretofore beenrmpunisbed. When Mr. Guthrie was made Secretary of tbo Treasury, there' was the sum of $182,621,704 69 due the Department. This seems incredible. A portion of the sum elated had been due for twenty years. The Herald says: "These old defaulters availed themselves of the act of 1841, and went through the Bank rupt Court, surrendering the whole of their property. This surrender has been implledly ' construed by the Secretaries of the Treasury, subsequent to 1841, so a compromise which re leased the defaulters from farther prosecution by the government. Mr. Guthrie hen taken • different view. According to law, no statute of limitations or statute cf bankruptcy can be pleaded against the government. The Treasury Department was expressly relieved from the operation of the law or 1841; at least this is the doctrine set up by the law officers of the ad ministration, and approved by Secretary Guthrie. :tin the strength .of it air. Guthrie has directed legal proceedings to be instituted against all the old defaulters, and the case is now under con sideration by judge Bette. At the same time, efforts were made to re cover the balances due by defaulters aubsequent to 1841. So vigorously was the matter prosecu ted, that up to the present time nearly thirty millions of dollars have beensettled, leaving one hundred millions yet due to the Government.— The circumstances, and the whole proceedings, reflect credit on Secretary Guthrie. TIM ALLEGED SLAVER CAPTIIILID lINEW YOLK. —The New York Tribune contains the particulars of the capture, in that port, by the United Stales offices, of the schooner Falmouth, on the charge of being a 'slaver. The Tribune says : The schooner is a rakish schooner of 250 tone, painted black, with a-red fillet around the base of the bulwarks. She is fitted up with all the appliances of a regular slaver, and in her bold, which runs clear fore and aft, could stow 500 or 600 negrees. A large quantity of rice, beans and pilot bread roe on board. liar bold was stowed full of cooks of firewood, and lumber for a slave deck.. Two immense CODpefß were also on board, together with a number of spoons and dishes.— The medicine chest, from Milheu'a, was stored with lint and castor oil enough for an army.-- A large number of cane of preserved meat were found, together with "spirits and wines, a coop fall of chickens, and four young grunters, From every package and barrel all direction Marks, as well to other signs which could lead to the con tents being traced to the .tore where they were purchased, or the person to whom they were sent, were carefully ermined. Indeed, nothing could be found on board, so far as we could see, which indicated who she was owned by or where she was bound. After giving the necessary in etructione, Mr. McKeon went ashore, where he was soon followed by the Marshals with the crew handottffed, on their way to the King's County Prison. It ie also stated by the WI tw. journal that no leas than thirty vessel• are fitted out for the African slave trade, at that port, every year. Pe013.71•16:11‘ Legislature Tuesday, May 18,„—The House held an Evening session and pawed finally the bills on the private calendar read a first time in the morning.— Among these was the bill providing for the open ing of streets in the city of Pittsburgh.
