discontinue the practice of searching
Alskoriean vessels Auring the pendency
of r.egotiations, or until specific instruc

the strong and irrepressible repugnance
of the whole American people against

It -e'ilir.-extract 'from the Ohio State,
.larilai r , the leading Black Republican
" paper of that State,
which Liesigiollicatit —as follows :
"Wowe people soma to inutgine that
parties can he made, dissolved. and re
eoristructed with as mach facility as a
:itlie and active boy unit turn a minter
set. This is a great mistako. Parties
are not made, but grow. They eunnot
be unmade : they may die, or, by folly
or perversity, be killed. We speak, of
course, of parties baying vital princi
ples—not ofephemeral organ iatiune."
The Journal is quite right. There
can be no vitality or soul in an firgaini
zation gutter up by re:4)1111.1011S; a party
must have a regular conception, grow th
and manhood. We are therefore to in
fer that the Ohio Republicans repudiate
the Buffale movement.
The picture of the proposed new par :
ty, AS driswn by the Pennsylvanian, is
life like. We give it :
Pie Mulatto Party —The opposition
proms have been speaking recently of a
project looking towa'rds the formation
of a new party, to be made up of men
of all parties opposed to the policy of
the Administration. It would,ofeourse,:
include the wool speculators, the fol
lowers of Sam and Sainbo, brdi tionists
and strong-minded women, and would be
torn to tatters by internal dissensions
in less than six months. Like the bat
tle of the " Kilkenny cats," only a bit of
hair would be found upon the scene of
conflict. This " People's" party would
present a picture similar to that of
(it way's old woman, whose gown of
many colors spoke
"--lariety of wretebedness:'
The Platform of the New Party.
We doa't know how often the charla
tans who afflict the politiiss of this free
country have endeavored to effect a
combination of "all the elements of or.-
position to the administration." Ev
ery Democratic administration in our
day and generation has had to encoun
ter a combination of "all the elements
of opposition." If no attempt, were
made to ootnbino the elements of oppo
sition against JAMES BUCKAWAN, thero
would bo room to fear thatho'had fal
len short of his duty to the 'ecitintry.—
The combination of tlume elements is
the very beat proof that Mr. Berthot4a;
like JACKSON, Pout and Przinc, hat
fearlessly done his duty and left the
consequences to take Faro of themselves.
Oitr adversaries, remarks the Valley
Spirit, pay us a great, compliin.tit n'hen
they admit thattheir only-hope of sad
cess lies in a consolidation of "all the el
ements of opposition." It is a con
fession of their weakness and ad admis
sion of our strength. The Democratic
party has never been reduced to the
necessity of fusing with the fag ends
of all factions, to maintain itself at the
polls. Vt has always gone into battle
under its own time honored flag and
conquefed by the power of its glorious
But we set out to give our readers a
glimpse of the New Party, which has
fur its head -lons J. CRITTENDEN, the
Judas Est ariot who betrayed HENRY
CLAY, and for its tail Joits W. Potrszv,
the other Iscariot who is trying to be
tray the Demoeracy of Pennsylvania.
The main features of the proposed or
ganization, as we learn from the papers,
"are the ignoring of all questions pro
ductive of sectional strife; the protec
tion of popular rights; a judicious sys
tem of internal improvements; a set
tled and firm foreign policy ; the preven
tion of the landing of foreign criminals
and paupers; the protection of the bal
lot box, and an extended period of res
idence after naturalization, as a condi
tion for the exercise of tlio elective
franchise; the fostering of American
gonins and art; allowing every Territo
ry rising into a State to have her Con
stitution and !aws framed by citizens
of the United States, who are perma
nent 'inhabitants, under such rules as
Congress may prescribe."
This is the old Know Nothing plat
form brought to light again. "Sam"
was going to put down sectional strife,
and protect popular rights, and inaugu
rate a foreign policy that would com
mand the admiration of the world; but
after all, ho simply debauched polities
for a little season and got put down
himself. Now he -is trying to crawl
out of his isareophajps, and, with the
assistance of CarrrEslaiN and Gamy,
get on his legit again, sad stand up for
another fight with the Democracy,

Iq2 the British (-;overnment—from
which the Abolition organs have re•
ceived their cue—urgedthis view of the
case. Mr. Wk11!•171:1t, then Secretary of
State, annihilated this di,tinetion st
out a difference in the following letter:
iti.t.suixeros. March, 1813.
The British Governnicut supposes that the
right of visit and the right of search are es
sentially distinct in .t heir nature, and that
this difference is well k non a and generally
acknoviled4ed: that the difference between
them consists in their .I;ffermit objects and
purposes : one, the visit having for its object
nothing but to ascertain the nationality of
the vessel : the other, the search, by an in
tininitiom, not only the nationality of the
tessel, but the nature and object of her
soysge, and the true owner4iii of her cargo.
The Got ernmetit Of 'he United States, on
the other band, maintains that Mere is no
such well-born and aelettosetedgeil, nor, in
any heutsti,oull qeseric dilterenee hchrerm
mina has itimatiy Fern coiled rout, oast whet
hers rrsrurllq been milled :frit rrls that the right

peace an authority which the IN , of nations
only allows in times of war. If such well
known distinr tior.s exist, where are the
proofs of it ? What writers of authority on
public law, what eldudhastion in Court* of
Admiralty, what pu blic treaties ressognize it?'
No smelt reeoanit• has presented itself to
the Government nt the United states; hut
tin the contrary, it tintlerstanthi that public
writers. courts of law and s olemn treati e s
have, for two centuries, used the virile
..visit" and "'search" in the same sense.—
What Great Britain and the United Staten.
mean by •• right of piettr.th" - he its broadest
sense, ircalled by Continental writer's and
Jurists he no other name than the " right of
visit." Visit. therefore, as it has been un
dereteml. implies not icily the right to in
quire nth, the natiennt character, but to de
tain the vessel, to stop the progress of the
voyage. to examine papers, bcdocide'on'their
regularity and authenticity, and to make in
quisition on hoard of enemy's property, and
into the business which the vessel is engaged
in. In other words, it describes the entire
right of belligerent visitation and search.--
Such a right is justly disclaimed UV . the
British Government in time of pence. "rhej,
nevertheless, insist on a right Whiehlher

is (lily terbal. it might be boned that no

alter the Constitution of Maryland, was
defeated at the recent election. It was
well understood that the real of of
the prime actors in the movement, was
to have incorporated in the fundameo.

embodying the famous and cherished
"twenty-one years" doctrine of the
Know Nothing or "American" party, us

prevailing at. a high pitch.
The Railroad, from Hanover, is near
completion. It was expected that the
cars would run into town on Saturday

bout' forty->e hands at work laying
truck. The company's Warehouse is
tinishod--a substantial brick edifice, of
sufficient capacity for a large business—
and a Turu-table, of the most approved
paPters, , is about to be put. down. Al
together, the enterprise has progressed
commentlably, and much credit is
duo to those concerned in its active
management for their untiring efforts!
The Warehouse of Dr. E. F. Shorb
and Ephraim Myers, opposite the Sta
tion, is up, find they have already near
ly MOO bushels of grain and 106 barrels
of flour in it, to be shipped off as soon
as the freight.business is opened on the
Railroad.
Mr. John Dutton has purchased the
Warehouse of Minch,her & Co., also
near the Station, for S2,(KX - .)--the build
ing to be completed before Mr, D. takes
possession.
Mr. John Miller will, this week, com
mence the erection of a fine hotel, three
