Court, under the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850,' for the arrest of Win. Crafts and Ellen Crafts, his wife, and Win. Jones, alledgeil fu gitive slaves. Crafts is a cabinet-maker, do ing business at his trade in Cambridge street, and with his wife made their escape from bondage in Macon, Ca., about two years since. It will be recollected that Mrs. Crafts, who is of very light complexion, disguised herself in male attire, and travelled from Ma cou to this city, as a dashing youth from the South, with her husband as her slave servant. Mrs. Crafts has left the city, but her husband remains to await the process of the law. No warrant had been served upon him last even ing. Jooei has left the city for Canada. He wa. employed at Parker's eating house. The fact of .the warrants having been issued caused considerable excitement in our com munity. Boston Atlas, Saturdtty. THE UNION MEETING AT SAVANNAH.

THE RESULT. , w The returns of the late election have come in very slowly. We are happy, at last, to congratulate our friends upon an. other triumph of the democracy. Morri, son, Brawley and Banks have carried the slate by a mnjority exceeding 10,000. The democrats have gained six congress men. The majority in the Legislature, on joint ballot, is large enough to secure the election of a democratic IT. S. Senator in place of Dr. Sturgeon. The amendments to tho constitution have carried by 71,000, This is essentially a democratic measure. It is another step towards placing the whole power where it should be, in the hands of the people. We may now look for a complete reform of the judiciary Men will be selected on account of their legal ability and moral worth, instead of political services and private friendship. We may hereafter depend upon their de cisionsand may hope to have the law es tablished. Lately there has been such an inconsistency in the opinions of judges that one can scarcely discover what the law is. We hope the next legislature in determin jng when and how this election shall be held, will not direct it to be held at the time of the general election. To fix upon another time will avoid confusion in the number of boxes, and have a good effect in preventing local causes from operating in the selection of such important officers as the judiciary. THE TURNPIKE BRIDGE. We mentioned some weeks ago, the in tention of the Centre Turnpike Company, and the County Commissioners to erect a new bridge over the "Gut" at the western termination of this road. We said then that the breadth between the abutments would be such as to permit the stream, when at its height, to pass through easily. If this was intended, it has not been accom plished. The mechanical work is good and substantial, but the abutments are too close to each other to permit the water, at all times to pass freely. Some years ago the water washed away a portion ol the turnpike just east of the bridge. This has never been filled up, and in consequence, when ever the water rises a few feet, this unrepaired part is under water, rendering the bridge useless, and compelling passen gers to use the rail road bridge. We are inclined to believe that this gul ley is intentionally left there by the Com pany to act as a waste wier to carry off the water that cannot pass under the bridge. The stream was rushing through it like a torrent on Sunday. The thing is a nui sance. How the constables, who make re turns of the condition of roads and bridges, under oath, at each Court of Quarter Ses sions, could have conscientiously omitted to notice this, is rather singular. THE FRESHET. The heavy rains of last Friday, Saturday and Sunday, have caused another fsesliet in the Susquehanna. During the whole of the first two days the rain poured down in torrents, deluging our streets and swelling the neighboring streams to a height little short of the freshet in July. The Shamo- kin creek overflowed its banks and did se rious damage to the fields of grain along them. Fortunately the fences carried away at the former freshet had not been re placed ; otherwise much more damage would have been sustained. The Centre turnpike was overflowed by the creek in several places, compelling vehiclei to travel upon the embankment of the railroad. The railroad itself sustained very little injury. The cars were unable to pass on Monday ; but are now making their regular trips. The Susquehanna at this place was not to high by several feet as it was in July. The West Branch was much higher. The low grounds at Northumberland were com pletely under water. The North Branch did not rise much, but, we understand the canal along it, was seriously damaged. , This is the third freshet that has occur red in tho Susquehanna since the first of July. "The oldest inhabitants" cannot re collect a season in which to many heavy rains have fallen. The Shamokin dam is usually perfectly dry during a portion of the summer, and the river below it has gen erally been fordable at the same time. This year the dam has been continually covered with water, and the depth below it so great as to preclude the possibility of ford ing. Many farmers aiong Shamokin creek lost nearly the whole of both winter and summer crops. The hay and wheat hav ing been carried away by the freshet in July, and the corn overflowed and destroy ed in August. Now their fields of winter grain have again been covered by the wa ter. .

A convention assembled in Worcester, Massachusetts, last week to deliberate on the best meant of securing to women their rights. The leaders of this demonstration were Mr. AUey Kelley, Esq., Col. Lucre tia Mott, Major Abby " Kelly Foster, Mrs. Wm. Lloyd Garrison and Mrs. Burleigh, the red , bearded abolition fanatic. The rights of woman; as set forth by the various speakers, female and male, black and white, upon this interesting Occasion, are peculi arly charming. They contend that women shall and ought to have the right and pri vilege to frequent gambling houses and grog shops, swear and make political speeches, go to Congress and get drunk, wear breech es and fight duels, and do all. and every other thing or things that the masculine gender can or may do. ' They consider nursing babies, educating children, manage ing household affairs, and every other do mestic duty as beneath woman's dignity, and decidedly out of her proper sphere.' All the female sex hitherto have been fools for submitting to such degredation. . They have as good a right to drink rum and go on a bender as men, and they : mean to do it. The course of things is onward and they must keep up with the times. They have voted St. Paul a heathen tyrant lor saying that women should obey or do any thing else that does not to them seem right and proper. Henceforth they will permit no distinction between the sexes. If God did not make them men, they will make men of themselves. There is nothing like independence. Although we can not approve all that was said and done at this Convention, we should like very much to see some of the principles there preached, carried into practice. There h nothing like constant employment of mind or body to keep one out of mischief. Mrs. Kelly, Mott fit Co., have been employed at little else than ma king speeches on some extravagant subject, all their lives. They have never enjoyed the pleasures of domestic life, and upon their own showing are not qualified for its duties, If they had been obliged to labor for their living, they would perhaps have been bet ter able to understand and discuss the rijrhts and duties of woman. If they had earned their bread by employment in the many lactones by which they are surrounded and toiled as others of their sex have been forced to do, they could better appreciate the blessings which they enjoy. They ve hemently recommend their sisters to labor to maintain an independence, but are care ful not to set them the example. A little work would do them good. Employment would prevent them from running about the country, preaching extravagant non sense and creating mischievous excitement. The cause of woman's rights will never prosper under their tutilage. The vast majority of American women are now far ahead of them in all that tends to usefulness and refinement ; and we would not insult them by a comparison with these fanatical non-descripts. ELECTRICITY AND HEAT. Our readers will recollect the recent pre tended discovery of Mr. Paine, by which, through the agency of the galvanic battery, &.c, water was to give light and heat to the world. Not only were cities to be lighted with gas which should cost comparatively nothing, but our steam engines and tea-kettles were to be fired up by the same simple element. Some noise was made about the same time over an invention, by some one, of a'n"electro-magnetic engine, of great power and velocity, whose motive power cost next thing to nothing. A paper was lately read by a Mr. Petrie, belore the British Association, on the subject of the application of heat and electricity as mov ing powers. He demonstrates that the consumption of zinc in the galvanic battery is very light, and that the cost is less than ot coal. Mr. Hocking, a scientific gentle man, in an article in the September No. of the Athenxum, takes occasion to correct this error, and shows conclusively that coal is by fur the cheapest and best material for producing heat. He says : The author (Mr. Petrie) is in error when he states 'that the best Cornish engines onlv yield one-fourteenth of the power that the com butt ion of the carbon actually represents;' for it we consider ttio healing value of the coaU to be represented by the quantity of caibon which they contain, it will be found that one pound of coal of a good quality and such B8 will raise in the bed Cornish engine t,U00,000 ib. one foot high will have healing power equal to above 10,000', which, being multiplied by Mr. Joulu's equivalent of 70o! as used by the author, we shall have for the theoretical power of one pound of coal the sum of 7,000,000, and the practical result in the Coruish engine being ihe sum of 1.000, 000, or one-seventh 'of the power that the combustion actually represents.' The author has not therefore given a correct alatemeutof the practical value obtained from heat. It is in fact, just double the value which he has given it. The comparative cost of power ob tained I rom heat and eluclricity, according to the author's statement of the quantity of zinc required per horse-power per hour, theoreti cally and practically : Theoretically, the consumption of nine jn the buttery should be 1 66 pound per hour per horse-pow er. Piao- lieally it is from 50 to 60 pound per hour Assuming that the price of zino is SO, per ton and the price of coal 10s pei ton, their relative prices will be as 40 to 1, 7'u-o pouiuls of tool per hour will, used in the best Cornish engine, produce the power of one horse ; and to produce the same amount of power by Ihe best electro maguetio engine fifty pounds of xinc must be consumed. Their comparative cost will, therefore, be as (40X50 v ' ' ' - -1,000 1,000 to 1. Even auppo- ing, with Ihe author, that engines may be constructed to give one-fourth of the theore tical power, the cost compared l the cost of ( 84 X 40 124 8 1 125 (nearly) to 1. RIGHTS OF SCHOOL TEACHERS. On the trial ol an action ot assault and battery against a female teacher in ono of (he common schools, of Philadelphia, lor chastising a pupil, the Court (Kino, Presi dent,) laid down the law a follows : 1st. That a Teacher of the Publio Schools has the right to inflict chastisement upon a pupil for improper conduct and breach of School Discipline. 2d. That a Teacher of a Publio School has the same right, in this respect, as a teacher of n private school, or if there is any differ ence, it is in favor of the rights of Public Touchers. 3d.' That a Teacher can onlv be convicted of assault and battery, where there is clear evidence that the chastisement was uncalled for, or immoderate and excessive. These, raid the Judge,, are the principles of the law the common law the law of Old England, introduced into this country, and by these the Jury ousht to be governed. There is no oth er law no higher law and though we hear ot members ot the branches of the Govern rnent invoking the higher law, it has not as vet toutiU any lavor in our judicial tribunals. The question of fact for ilia Jury to consider was, he said, whether the defendant had overstepped the authority with which she was invested. KF" Another outrage was committed in Moyamensing last Tuesday night. A party of the police were fired upon, and Capt. M'Shea and a policeman named Slaven, were severely wounded. M'Shea received two balls, one in the groin and another in the thigh. Slaven was wounded by two balls in the abdomen, and one in the leg. His physicians have slight hope of his re covery. KT The Mails. The Philadelphia mail intended for this place, strayed up to Dan ville again on Monday night. This is not the first time we have been obliged to no' tice this outrageous carelessness.

The City Council at Chicago has passed resolutions nullifying the act of Congress re specting the Fugitive Slave Law, and releas ing the Police from obedience to it. This act of the City Authorities has caused great ex citement, and last night a meeting of four or five thousand people was held the Major presiding. Senator Douglass made a power ful speech, sustaining the acts of Congress in passing this bill, and also the Compromise. His speech had a powerful effect on the meeting, and caused a change in public opin ion in favor of the law and against the acts of the City Council. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT MILWAl'KI E.

A circular from Professor Schumacher, o Altoim, received by the editor of the Astro nomical Journal, "announces the discovery of a planet, on the 13th of September, by Mr. Hind, at Mr. Bishop's Observatory, London?' "From the discovery of Vesta by Doctor Olbers, of Bremen, in 1848 no additions were made to the number of known planets belong ing to our system till the discovery of the Asirc a by Hencke, on the 8th of December, 1845, a period of nearly forty years. Now, in less than five years past, the have been ad" ded no fewer than nin primary and two se condary planets, so that our Solar system, as at present known, consists of twenty primary and the same number of secondary planets or moons. The discoverer of the new planet has pro posed for it the name of Victoria, and 'a star surrounded by a laurel wreath for a symbol;' but it is not probable this name will be re tained by astronomers. Lest some of the readers of the American, who feel an interest in such subjects, have not access to the names of the nine new planets discovered within the last five years, a list is subjoined, viz: Aslrea, Flora, Iris, Hebe, Hygea, Metis, Par theuope,. Victoria, and Neptune. To Neptune has been discovered a satellite, and an addi tional one to Saturn within that time." Omnibuses in Lonbon. The total number of omnibuses travelling the streets of London is three thousand, paying duty, including mileage, averaging 3 per month, or 324, 000 per annum. The number of conductors and diivcrs is about seven thousand, paying annually 5s. each for their licenses, or 1, 750 collectively. Tho average journey of each omnibus is six miles, and that distance is often travelled twelve times a day by each omnibus. The proprietors pay their servents fairly, and exact rigid sobriety, punctuality and cleanlinesss. Their great difficulty is to ensure honesty. Every proprietor insists upT on the difficulty of trusting men with uncount ed money. Several plans have been resorted to, to obtain a check. One plan now in pra tice, is to engage a well-dressed woman sometimesaccompanied by a child, who trav. els by the omnibus, and immediately on leav ing it, fills up a paper for tho proprietors, showing, tho number of insides anil outs, of long and short (ares. Many other schemes are employed to prevent dishonesty. One of these women kept the list of passengers with a bag of beans and peas. Fugitive Slave Law in Boston About half past four o'clock, on Saturday afternocn, H. J. Knight, who is alledged to be a slave catcher from Georgia, was ni rested by Depu ty Sheriff Rugg, on a writ of slander. The writ alieges that Mr. Knight chatged William Crafts a citizen of Massachusetts with being a slave, to the damage of his bu siness, and detriment of his character, in the sum of $10,000. Mr. Knight was taken to Mr Rugg's office, where a great crowd soon as somblcd, composed of whites nnd plncks abuse was heaped upon Mr. Knight, but no violence offered. Mr. Knight, after remain ing in custody about half an hour, obtained bail in S10.000, and was set at liberty. This is said to be one movement of a series by the opponents of tho Fugitive Slave Law.jo ren der its execution as obnoxious as possible The Committee of Vigilance have had seve al sessions, ami hnve, it is said, resolved to invite the suspected fugitive slave seekers to leave the city foreivith. So far no attempt has boen made to arrest a fugitive. The warrants lie dead in the Marshall's office The excitement is great. Many say Ihe law should be enforced, while others cay it shall not. A number of fugitives, fearing they cannot be protected, have fled to Canada. i.nroHi'ANT association. An association has been formed at Jerusalem, which has for its object the literary and scientific investi gation of all subjects connected with the Holy Land.

LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM CUBA. By the kindness cf a friend we have been favored with the perusal of a letter front Cu ba, concerning the late movements of the Spanish Government in that Island, &o. It is dated, Matansa, Isle of Cuba, Oct. 15, I860) ana nays that on tho evening of the 7th, and the morning of the 8th, of the present month, fifteen persons, all Cubans, were arrested by the Government, and put in prison, charged with being spies and revolutionists: manvi however, made their escape from the island The writer of the letter then goes on to re capitulate the names of those arrested, among whom we noticed that of Don Francisco de la O. Garcia, Don Saturnio Hernandez, nnd others of the most influential mid wealthy men of the Island. Among those who esca ped, was Col. Francisco Hernandez Morejnhn an officer in the National Army, and his bro. ther Don Pedro. It is said that these men who are arrested are some of the most wealthy and influential persons in Cuba, nnd though they have been taken up only on the mere supposition of be ing spies, the whole country around, inclu ding even the soldiers and officers of the ar my itself, are dissatisfied, and dark mutterings are frequently heard. By the intervention of some olficer of the government, one or.two of tho gentlemen were released, and managed to leave the Island. Tho principal officers of I tio nr. nl arm, nml mm., r.Ttl. . n n ment emissaries, it is said, disapprove of the J 1 course thus taken, and wonld, perhaps, on the opportunity' resist the government in so doing.

A Philadelphia correspondent ol the Chester Republican, says 'that in the Killer' gang to make up for disparity of age and strength, the slung shot was adopted as the most efficient wea por they could use. This dangerous tool, as used by the Killers, is a leaden ball ol two pounds weight, fastened to a slron cord four leet hi length, and attached to the right wrist. When this club was organized, crowd of young men and boys were con stantly occupied in practicing the art of using the shot, on the board fence in the district. The science consisted in driving it up to its head with one blow, and jerking the ball back into the hand.

The debates will probably increase In interest during the next session.
