STAR OF TBI NORTH. R. W. WEAVER, EDITOR. Dloomsburg,-Thursday, Jan. 30, 1851. A SIGNIFICANT VOTE. last week a bill came up in the Pennsyl Vania Senate repealing the objectionable part of the slave act of 1847. The vote upon this act to repeal was almost strictly a party one. Only one Whig (Mr. Frick) votod in the affirmative and one Democrat (Mr. Gu ernsey) in *hc negative. The law of 1847 'is that one making it a misdemeanor in any elate magistrate to act under the law of Con gress far restoring fugitive slaves, and pun -isliing him severely by fine and imprison kaent. It also provides that the jails ol I'enn> sylvania shall not be used for the detention of fugitive slaves, under a penally of line und imprisonment to the sheriff or jailor. The vote of last week in the Senato shows the abolition sympathies of Federalism, and the hollow heartod hypocrisy of its cant a bout "Nationalism." After the fever of the last presidential elec tion, ar.d when statesmen like Lewis Cast, and Judge Douglass-appealed from fanata ,JMp. cism jjnd clamor to the thoughtful judgment <of a dispassioncd nation, the Democratic - doctrine of nan intervention was conceded 'to be right. Clay and Webstei had no ob ■jeotiens to admit its correctness, after the dec lion, aad when the truth was vindicating it -self. And after General Foote had fought ithrough the appointment of a Compromise committo in Congress, Mr. Clay had no ob jections to be chairman of the committee and to take the honors of the measures •which it proposed. The Rhinii.g lights of Federalism lound out that the Democratic doctrine was right after all, and great credit did they claim for this sagacity. Of course they subscribed to the Compromise meas ures of Gen. Foote when almost every dis criminating mind in the land had decided for .them, and when these Solons found that the were upon that side. In Pennsylvania, he/ore the election Governor Johnson peddled his Freesoilism ihroug the state as a dilapidated gentleman would ped die out antiquated oysters through the public streets ; and he cried off his abolitionism up on the highway and in the public places to •the highest bidder. Scarcely a township constable could bo elected without being asked whether ha was a proviso man. But after the election it was discovered that there was much truth in the non-intervention idea of Democracy and that it was growing ex ceedingly popular. Federalism grew won drou#patriolic and constitutional—i'.s high priests put on broad pylacteries with moltes of "compromise" and "nationalism," and tho followers worshiped devoutly and obedi ently. But now another election ia approaching, and it seems a profitable thing to bid high lor the abolition vote of the state. And with Teference to that the Whigs of the Senate last week voted And now let that vote go 4o Webster and Clay—nay, let it go to the American peopto and show what manner of two-faced Janus this thing of Federalism lias proved itself. Let its abolition sympa thies bo understood, and its phatisaical cant about nationalism and the constitution be cast to the teeth to give its demagogues the Jie. And now let us hear no mote reproach upon the Domocrats of Massachusetts be cause some Freosoil Democratic members voted for a Democratic governor. If in that state Mahommed has come to the mountain, the mountain has not yet gone to Mahom mied. And least of all should that reproach icomefroma Pennsylvania Whig, whose co-laborers have truckled to Antimnsonry— have cringed and fawned like hungry sup pliants around Native Americanism—nnd are now licking their parched jaws for a morsel of votes and plunder from Abolition ism. ANOTHER FUGITIVE SLAVE was last Thurs day arrested at Columbia, Pa. The proof of his ideitity was clear, and he was restored to hts master. He said he would never have run ofT if he had not been alrard of being sent to Georgia. It seems the abolitionists had been instigating the slave to insurrection untiT the master became afraid and jealous of him. The negro obsorving this fled to a more degrading servitude and fell into the hands of harder taskmasters. TCORTH BRANCH EXTENSION—The effect of ithe rapid advancement of this important link -of our Stale improvements, has been to ma .tarially enhance the prioe of lands along .its entire route. We are informed that an .acre and a half, situated near the mouth of ithe Lackawanna, in Piltston township, Lu xerne county, at the southern commence ment of the work, recently sold for S3OOO ; and that othei lands have also been disposed of at proportionate tates> particularly coal iands. ..... larThe Philadelphia county Democratic convention on last Monday chose delegates to the Reading and Harrisburg conventions with instructions for BIGLER for Governor and Judge CAMPBELL for the Supreme Bonch. CP" Col. Jno. W. Forney and Richard R. Young were on last Monday evening chosen Senatorial Delegates from Philadelphia city to the Reading convention and has. Harvey, Patrick Couroy, Charles Worrell and Jas. Vandyke as Representative delegates. THE Legislative bodies of New York and Massachusetts have fixed upon the 4th of February for the time of electing a United States Senator. • HT Our thanks are due to Messrs Brishin md Strong of Congress, and Messrs Packer, Buckalew and M'Reynolds of the state leg islature for their friendly missives. Another Figltive Slave Cave. One day laat week a fugitive slave named Grayson and aged 21, was arrested at Dan ville and taken back to hia master. He was rejoiced to learn that he was to go '•back to ole Virginny," and find there a hand more provident for good than his own had been. He had led a hard life as a gitive, and suffered much by degradation and toil. He had become a wandering vag abond for whom there was here no kindneßS or help. No wonder then 'hat his sable countenance seemed to brighten with the prospect of again ficding a protecting mas. ter. We have often said that the frantic aboli tionists are the worst enemies of the slave, and this case illustrates the fact. The preachers of discontent make the slave rest less, unhappy and without better ing his lot. They engender a spirit ot jeal ous bitterness : etween the master and slave, and draw tighter the gives of slavery as thoy cut deeper Poor G ravson had felt the cruel kindness of negro degra dation and sufioring in the North, and he was heaitily glad for deliverance from his strange new friends. This case at Danville passod off without any faitful fever of crazed minds to mani fest a hypocritical or morbid sympathy. There was no consequent convulsion in trade-—no stopping ol the iron business—no special squalling of babies—and no fainting <f women, asGrayson was taken ofT to have a home again. Danville is still in existence, and the sun yet shines. And indeed it is a wholesome reflection to know that correct views prevail in our neighborhood upon this much distorted subject of abolitionism The spirit of lawlessness and treason is harmless here, and the public mind is based upon reason and right. How diffiereiit is the result of this case from that of Henry Long. Grayson goes back to find the protection and home of in dulgence. Ho goes to find friendliness and kind treatment, for no one has embittered him against his master. But for Long con tributions were begged even from the poor est white slaves of New York. He was in stigated to evil against his master, until the master could no longer hold him in safety, and the miserable object of misguided sick ly sympathy was sold like] a brute in the public market place to a strange new task master. He was sold to go further south where he would never escape, for he brought the good sum of $750 and his purchaser by the conditions of sale was compelled to en ter into a bond of $3,000 with surety, to re move Long to the South. Let a discrimina ting public say who is responsible for that sale of the un r orlunate bondman. Meeting ot the Democratic Standing Committee. In pursuance of public notice by the Chairman the Democratic Standing Commit, tee ot Columbia county at the Court-house in llloomsburg on Saturday afternoon Janu ary 25th, and to procure a fuller attendance and for further consultation adjourned to meet the same place on Tuesday afternoon, January 28th. on Tuesday atternoon January 28th tho Committee met at the Court-house in Bloomsburg, agreeably to adjournment; when, on motion of Col. Hiram R. Kline, Charles Kahler Esq. was called to the chair and Franklin M'Bride chosen Secretary. The object of the meeting being explain ed, on motion of Mr.Jolm H. Quick the fol lowing resolutions were unanimously adop ted. Re.ml icd that, as the regular delegate to the annual Democratic State Convention haß already been chosen in this county ; after due consultation with our political friends, we have come to the conclusion that since the usual necessity for a county convention at this time does not exist, and the usual in terest oi the public is not manifested for tho call of such a meeting, we deem it propel to dispense with such call. Resolved that HON. SAMUEL OAKS of Lime stone township now Montoui county is here by chosen a Representative Delegate from this Representative district to the Democrat ic Judicial State Convention to be held at. Harrisburg on the 11th of June next. Resolved that WESLEY IIOAT of Columbia is the choice of this county for Senatorial Delegate to represent this Senatorial district in the Democratic Judicial Stalfc Conven tion to be held at Harrisburg on the lllh of June next, and that he is hereby chosen as such delegate so far as this county has au thority to choose. Resolved that these delegates have author ity to appoint substitutes. Resolved that these proceedings bo pub lished. CHARLES KAHLER President. F.

The proceedings of the Conrt at January Sessions show a healthy state of morals in the fact that only three indictments for trivial offences came before the Grand Jury, ex* cept those in the Robison case. The Grand Jury on Thursday noon presen ted the following report and were thon dis charged. To the Honorable the Judges of the Court of <iuarter Sessions of the Peace in and for the county of Columbia— The undersigned, grand Inquest of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, inquiring for the body ol the county of Columbia, respectfully REPORT That in pursuance of their duties, they have examined the Public Buildings, and find that the Iron-railirg, heretofore recom mended, in front of the Court House portico, has not yet been put up which is much nee ded—that several panes are brokon out of the Grand Jury room, and also in other parts of the public buildihgs, which ought to be repaired immediately—that the hand-railing on the steps inside of the prison is torn off— that the opening in one of the jail room walls up etairs, made by prisoners who escaped some time since has not been sufficiently repaired—that the fire-plsces ;n the prison rooms up stairs are considered dangerous . that a number of glasses in the prison rooms lately broken are much needed—that the pripy iu the jail yard, is in a bad condition and requires repairing, and that the privy between the Court House and jail also re quires attention- That the attention of the Supervisors is di rected to the importance of opening the re maining part of the state road, leading from Kohrsburg to Sullivan county. That the condition of the roadß and Bridges, generally are in ordinary state.—We recommend that the foregoing suggestions be carried into speedy execution. All which is respectfully submitted. LEVI L. TATE, foreman. January Session, 1851. On Friday morning Mr. Freeze presented to the court the proceedings of a meeting held on Wednesday evening bearing testi mony to the virtues and worth ol the decea sed Judge Anthony.

In the oase of Rittenhouse and Thomp son vs. Barney Hole the jury reported a ver dict for the plaintiff. The court ordered a term for one week a; April and adjourned on Friday noon. PUBLIC MEETING. At a meeting of the Bar of Columbia county and other citizens; held at the Court House in Bloomsburg, on Thutsday evening, the 23d January, 1851, called to express their regret for the death of the Hon. JOSEPH B. ANTHONV, late President Judge of this district, Hon. JAMES POLLOCK was called to the Chair. L. G. Bancroft, Esq., in a beautiful and ieehnjr address, cnmmomorata.l tha viriuas and talents of the deceased.' He reviewed briefly the important events in tho life of Judge Anthony—remarking upon his com plete fitness for all the stations he was called to till ; civil, political and judicial. On motion of James Pleasjats, Esq, J. G. Freeze, Esq., presented to the meeting the following preamble and resolutions: WHEREAS, By an afflicting dispensation of Providence, we have been called to mount the decease of our late President Judge. Therefore. Resolved, That as Members of the Bar of Columbia county, in the eigth Judicial Dis trict, we have heard with the most profound regret, the death of Hon. Joseph B. Anthony late President Judge of this District. Resolved, That we hold in the highest res pect the memory of the deceased—as well for his personal character, as for his exalted judicial iutogrily—which held the scales ol justice in his hands, above the reach of in fluence, and away from the breath of preju dice— Resolved, That this meeting condole with the family and friends of the deceased in their bereavement, and hereby tender them, our sincere sympathy for their great loss, with the hope that they may be sustained in their affliction, by a hand from above. Resolved, That the members of the Bar, in memory of the loss they have sustained, wear upon their left arm the usual badge of mourning for thirty days. Resolved, That L. G. Bancroft, W. G. Hur ley, and J. W. Comly, Esqrs—be appointed a committee, to transmit to the Family of the Deceased, a copy of these resolutions and proceedings. On motion of Mr. Pleasants— Resolved, That the proceedings of this mee ting be presented to the Court of Columbia county, und entered in full upon tho records of said court, as expressive of the sense the Bar entertain of the great worth and distin flushed character, of their laie President udge Resolved, That the procsedings of this mee ting bo published in all the papers of Colum bia county. On motion tho meeting then adjourned. Appointment ol Delegates. It will be observed that the Standing Com mittee of this county have chosen the dele gates to represent this county in the Judicial Convention at Harrisburg. The delegate to the Reading Convention having already been chosen last fall, aud but bitter interest being felt in the Judicial Convention, it was with truth thought that the Standing Committee, chosen by a convention of the people, and directing representing the Democracy of the whole county, are more officially the organs of the whole party than a prepared county meeting where accident gises voioe ; and can doubtless as correctly judge the public wish as a convention of six or eight town ships. J. E. BONHAM, Esq., the democratic candi date to fill the vacancy in the house of Cum berland, was elected on Friday by a majority c.f about 500. This is a most gratifying re sult, and shows the high estimation in which Mr. B. is held at home. BT The bleak winter winds are 2*B good as paint for the girls. Democratic Caocus. At a caucus of the Democratic members of the Legislature on Friday evening Jan. 17th, it was on motion of Mr. M'Caalin, re solved unanimously, that John M. Bickel be the candidate of the Democratic members of the Legislature for State Treasurer. Mr. Lilly of Carbon offered the following resolution; That this caucus request the chsirm atf*f thejfete Central Committee to call thst fommjltee together for the purpose of the difference that now exists, and to agree on the place of holding the Stale Convention for nominating Supreme Judges. * Mr. Muhlenberg moved that the chairman of the State Central Committee take the sense of the membdrs of that committee by letter, on the time and place of holding the convention to nominate the Judges. Mr. Penniman moved to refer the motion and amendment to a committee of five, which was carried. The chairman appoint ed Messrs. Penniman, Muhlenberg, Cessna, M'Caslin and Blair, to constitute the com mittee. The following resolutions were moved, and after consideration unanimously adopted, to wit : Resolved, That we, the Democratic mem bers of Assembly of Pennsyl vania, most cordially approve of the general course of the Hon. Daniel Sturgeon in tne United States Senate. His high toned patri otiaa,Mfkßn and unwavering Democracy, merits and receives our highest commenda tion, especially as exhibited in the trying situation in which he has been placed during the pendency ef the great Compromise mea sures in the National Legislature, the speedy and harmonious settlement of which was so deeply important to the continued prosperity and happiness of our glorious Union. Resolved, That the Secretaries of '.his mee ting be authorized to transmit to the Hon. D. Sturgeon a copy of these resolutions. WM. F. PACKER, Chairman. R. Simpson, ) „ C. R. Bucklliw, j Secretaries. Another Democratic U. 9, Senator. We announce, with much satisfaction, the election of Hon. James A. Bayard, of Wil mington, Delaware, to the U. S. Senate, for the full term of six years, beginniog on the 4th of March neat—Mr. Wales, Whig, reti ring onumt dajf. "The election took place at Dover, the capital of Delaware, and on the S3d inst., and Mr. Bayard received the entire Democratic vote'of the two houses. We believe the new Senator has never be fore occupied any representative position!; but he goes into the Senate with all the ad vantages conferred by a ripe education rarely equalled poweis as a lawyer and a debater, and a mind of /he highest order. As the champion of the Democratic party in Delaware for many years, he has often dis tinguished himself by his eloquence, and has always been found consistent and true. The country does not contain a more thor ough and fearless defender of the national Democracy, or a bolder foe of faction and of abo!itu>nim. Ha will adorn the eeat lo whicL he has been elected, and will be a most acceptable addition to the majority of that body. We congratulate Delaware upon the choice of such a Senator. New Gold and silver Mine. One day last week as two lade, sons of Mr. Charles Reed, were playing near Fish bach, in the upper part of this Borough, they discovered a string which showed itself at the surface of the earth and on pulling at it found it fastened to something underneath. On removing aome two or three inches of earth they found a small bag containing a quantity of Jewelry, some of it in an unfin ished state, and evidently from a manufacto ry. The articles consisted of Gold and Sil ver Chains, Pencil cases, Lockets, Rings, &c. See. which Mr. Reed exhibited to Mr. Green, Jeweller who estimated their value at $250 to S3OO. They were in all probability bronght here from Philadelphia, and were some of the property stolen there within the past few months.— PoUtville Emporium. We are told the population of Luzerne county will be nearly sixty thousand. An immense increase.—ln 1840. including Wy. oming—the population was 44,000, being an increase in the old county of nearly thir ty thousand The ice gave way in the Susquehanna on Saturday, aftei running some hours, formed a dam at the bend below this place—raising the water, so as to make the road from the west end of the bridge difficult of passing.

How to detect the CounterfeUe. —The Coun terfeit ten dollar notes on the Miners' Bank of Potlsville, bear dale 1848—while the Bank, as we are informed by one of the of ficers, lias no notes of aay description in circulation, of a later date than 1847. This should be borne in mind. From the late Annual Report of the Audi tor General, we learn that on the Ist ot De cember, ult. the actual public debt of this State amounted to S4O 216,363.
