New - Yorle Sun declares itseif to be in the

i this - ease will be decided by the

sal. of the - plaintiff. ' The ease involves the
ritht.:of the t Slaveholder to bring his
slaves iii`rientsfiu'into Northern States, as
praperty , antitled to :protection under the
Constitatiort, and if decided in accordance
with:the Sun's statement, Slavery at once
becomes the 11;w of the free States, in de

A Great Question.
"There is an imperative necessity f rre!km
ing the naturalization laws of the UnitedStatft-
The preservation of the government, the inter:
est, the real welfare of all parties, the honor of
the nation, all require that subordinate and
different party questions should be made to
yield to this great end. And no man who es
steema the prosperity and existence of his
country, as of more importance than a deet•
in". party triumph, will or can hesitate to gime
his adherence to those principles.'
So spoke Daniel Webster. a; lone age

old English sects, and they are beside them
selves with anger. The warehouse of their
own theology offers them hut few weapoes.—
Their religion is cold, intelligent; and yet not
rational enough; they therefore libel the 'Galt

most ferocious beasts of prey, only fit to he de.

the thing most vretrable to the Catholic man

RUN 'ON THE WHEATLAND
BANK.—The Cincinnati flatly
alluding to the recent "run" on the Lan

or near Lancaster, on which there is eke a
"run." We allude to the Bank at Wheat
land. We have private information to the
effect that many, who have deposited in
that Bank are becoming alarmed as to its
safety, and aro clamoring at the doors of
the institution, It is said that the Presi
dent—one BUCK— is quite uneasy over
this state of things, but that the Cushier
—one FortwEy—takes it quite coolly. It
is , 'questionable whether the Bank of
Wheatland isjci a safe oondition. Unless

Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, moved that it
be:referretlan the Committee of the Whole
on the Siate•of the Union. He regarded I
the document as one of the most extraord.!
leery that ever emanated from the Exec- I
olive. It was, in his opinion, a budget of
inconsieteneies, containing serious charges
, .
agamst a large portion of the people of
the North. which have no foundation'
whatever in fact, whirl' he could prove.
Nearly' four.years ago the : President was i
ins (Iterated into Office, and announced t 6
the people of theimuctry that the repose
which the Union then en'oyed relative to
slavery; anti the measure of 185 C, should
receive no shock during is officiai term:
vet the first session. of Congrese bad
seaccely began, before the President;
thrOugh his friends in this Hall, sought
by all the . means qt his '`command, to ro
peal the rime-linnored Compromise of
1820. The pretence was that it was ne:
cresary to enable the people of "Nebraska
and 'Kelm& to enjoy the principles 'of the
Compromise of 18fiN That repeal was ; I
carried, anti. the repose'which so long
blessed the country disturbed, and all ex

to its very Centre. Noiv that lie is re.
tiring from office, he arraigns a vast Ma
jority, of the people of die Free States
. as
guilty of making
, war on the Constitution
al rights Of the South. The President
hoe been tiondemood by a majority 'of
800.000 'freemen: •
Mr. Keitt inquired. whether' Mr. Camp
bell took the Freinoilland Fillmore' . vote
together.to•make tiiithat majority.
Mr.' Campbell replied affirmatively. '
Mr. Keitt asked Mr. Campbell, wheth
er he regarded the supporters of Mr.'Fill-'
More at the North, no enli-Nebreska, and
in. favor of Frees oilistn. . • •
Mr. CaMphell theught there was not
a aingle•member °fans House, belonging
to the Fillmore- party of the North, who
did not, when before, the people, ep_pase
the principles of the Nebraska bill, and
.
Ventured to say that there.:was not one
man out of every hundred who supported
Mr. Fillwore, wilco did not oppose the re
peal of die Missouri Compromise. They

relative to Mt. Whinield's seat, once ju
dicially determined, and before this was
disposed of, the Democrats procrastinat
ing, the President hadsent in his message.
The President not only.maligned by un
founded accinations, the party -which his
adminietratinn brought into existence, but
sought to defemthimself by attributing to,
that party purposes which they did not,
entertain. Ile charged them with, while
pretending to prevent the spread of slay- 1
ery, a desire to change the existing insti- 1
lotion of the States. thus accusing this par-1
ty of false pretences. Those charged
with this, are expected to listen patiently.
and not open their mouths in reply. The
Republican party are conservative men
in.tha North, men of influence, who stood
by the Compromise of 1850. They gave
Fremont majorities unprecedentedly large.
This charge of false pretences was end
founded, The Republicans did not pro-1
pose nor wish to interfere wilt the relit-
tions of the whites and the blacks in' the
Southern States, They never claimed
the power to dom., The President die
potes that which 'is unfounded. They
claim that in the violation of :he pledges
made by the President , and for political
purpoisee, the 3listiouki - Compromise was
repealed, and new.they were called on to

assailed the 'question of the repeal of the!

a matter of . no political importance, and
that Mr. Buchanan was nominated against
the combined tote of Pierce and Douglas,
Ize repudiated that law, and that '
further Mr. Buchanan would make FCan-;

shown that persons could live cheaper by
