Ilorible Scene at an Execution.
Allgemeine Zeitung contains the follow
, ing account of a frightful spectacle' recently
j exhibit at a public execution in Switzerland.
A strange circumstance has just taken
place at Herisnit, the 'capital of Inner Ap
ipenzell, in SWitzerland, showing how much
in these countries of old liberties civilization
is behind hand in some matters. A young
girl of 10, some months back, assassinated
her rival. fhir lover Was arrested with her
and, as she caused him of the crime, both
were. put to the torture..., The . girl yielded
to the pain, and confeSsed 114 i crime'; the,

Abolition and Minion.
The extreme fanatics : of the ,North had
South sayS, tliwPhilittlelphitrphiVguh,ftro
vieing with ,erteh.o,ther in• their itlechkratioas
of infidelity to the •COMtitutionai
Senator' Better; of S. C., in the debate on Mie
Vermont Rescilutions,declared, in traitorous
language, that the tithe was past for the
South to submit to the decision of, the Su-
Promo Court.' It prefers the policy of cor
rection, and:will oppose all approbation bills,-
in hopes .to starve the nations so low; that it
will swalloW slave territory, rather then'eb
! tnin nothing. A IVashington correspendent
of the .lournol of commerce thus states the
position of the two extreme sections. "Equal
ity or Independence" is announced by Sen,
ator Butler, as the motto of the Southern
States. • The South sees that the Sceptre is de
parted. • She sees gathering millions in the
Eait, in the North, and in the West, all
agreeing upon one line of policy—opposition
to slavery—her essential institutions. She
sees three or four free States, of great-pow
er, almost ready to come into the Union
orever t estroying all the influence of the
South—controlling her in the &Mate, over
whelming, her in the House, Mid annulling
every constitutional barrier that was set up
in her defence. The ballot-box, as Mr. But
ler said, is to the South Pandora's-box and
worse, for at the bottom of the latter, was.
hope. The South contends with majorities
and without hope. She witnessed the ful
fillment of the prediction of Geo. Mason—
that the North when armed with the power
of majorities, would trample on the constitu
tional rights of the South, end say, "the
Lord has delivered them into our hands."
The cey of the abolitionist is that Provi
dence wills Ate downfall of slavery, and all
that upholds it. The crowding of slaves into
their present limits, till they become too nu
merous to be supported by, their labor, and
then emancipation by means of servile war,
is the destiny before the South, and those
who now annul one constitutional provision
will then, with vastly increased numbers.
espoused the part of the slave population, and
rush down upon the South with the'Crusa
der's cry of "Id Dela v u /I."
In view of this principle, the South choose
now to take a stand: Whether they can ob ,
tain any guarenties such as they see is doubt
ful. But if they do not now, they never can
hereafter." 13ut how easy all the danger
and excitement might be allayed by adopt
ing the moderate and,popular policy of Pres
ident 'Taylor's territorial message ?
European Notions of the U. States..
An Italian correspondent of Erie “N. Y.
;Courier and Enquirer" makes the follow
ing just remarks in regard to American in
fluence in Europe greatly overrate
both the amount and the value of the influ-
I once of our institutions on the popular mind
of Europe. The great mass of the people
on the continent are either totally ignorant
of our national existence, or have the yang
' est idea of our geographical position,our his
' tory, our character and our form of govern
ment. The Parisian matron who inquired
on my mention of Washington, if he was
.that horrid English physician who poison
ed Napoleon 3.'—the Athenian who congrat
ulated me that our 'king was plenty rich,
since he has got so much gold in California
I'—the Neapolitan who was satisfied that
'America is the finest kingdom in Europe,'
and wished me to take him there a foot
and the custodian, at Pompeii, who could
expound antiquities admirably, but hnd ne
ver even so much as heard of America—
; afford thir illustrations of the intelligpice
generally possessed on the continent of
Eu
rope respecting our country. In truth, how
should it be otherwise ? Nearly half of the
people are unable to read, and a large pro
portion of the remainder are both too poor to
obtain books, and too uncultivated to care
for information. The educated class enter
tain the most inadequate and perverted ide
as concerning us. They indeed that
we are a Republic, but they have no proper
conception of either Ole theory or the prac
tical-operation of our government : they un
derstand that we have liberty, but they are
ignorant of the moral strength which con-
trols it, and one of the great. constitutional
and legal barriers which hedge it. in.".
