The next day they were followed by two persons, who, engaging the assistance of a constable, started on in their pursuit. The pur suers succeeded in overtaking the slaves at Wilkes-Barre- but owing to the strong expression of feel ingmanifested by the people in their favor, they were forced to desist. "Skcoxd Chop Peaches. The Rockville Md jftiiYnal speaks of a perfectly matured peach, of serond growth, from the orchard of Mr. ueorge Huddlestoti, of that county. The tree on which this peach grew is very full of the same kind. This peach is considerably smaller than those of the first crop. .Singular Offer. A lawyer in extensive prac tice in Philadelphia, has been offered S 12,000 per year for two years, the payment guarantied by se curity on real estate in New York, to go to Cali fornia and exercise his talents in defending an as sociation of burglars Tind thieves. The condition of; the offer was that any money received by him for.defending others, or for services rendered to others than members of the gang, should be cred ited, to them as part payment of his salary. He peremptorily declined the offer. Dreadful iMortamtv. Out of a cargo of 159 Norwegian emigrants, embarked at Buffalo for Aill'waukie, fifty four died on their passage, and were thrown overboard. They were victims of slfip-fever contracted during a recent voyage of three months from Europe. The . Philadelphia Spirit of the Times says that the old Bank of the United States has a claim of one million dollars against Texas, which will now be paid. A Precocious Couple. One1 of the census lakers for Greene county, Mr. M'cCoy, says the Xema (Ohio) Torchlight informs usfof -an instance of precocity that came under his observation in the eastern part of that county, which we venture to say, is unparalled in the this latitude. The parties are a married couple, the husband 18, and the wife 16. They have been married about four years, and have two children one of which is over three years of age, and the other over one! If a youngej couple than they have commenced "adding to the glory and great ness of their county," we hope to hear of it. Sentence of an Abolitionist. ;Tvvo men, named McBride and Crooks, were, recently arrested at Greensborough, N. C. on the -! large Df circulating an abolition pamphlet, going to charge the slave-holders with living in daily vi tiation of the ten commandments. The trial took place last week, when McBride was declared guilty, and Crooks not guilty. McBride was sen tenced to one years' imprisonment, to stand in the pillory one hour, and to 'receive twenty lashes. .lie appealed to the Supreme Court. New Jersey Peach Trade. A statement of the peach trade of the past season has been prepared, i Dim which it appears that there were carried to New York from New Jersey 1,338,500 bushels. Seven steamboats were employed in conveying litem. Allowing twenty-five cents per bushel as the average price, the farmers of New Jersey real ized the handsome sum of three hundred and thirty-four thousand six hundred and twenty-five dollars. Volcanic JSt'iiplions. An Oregon paper, dated the 2 1st March, gives the following account of Yolcanic eruptions in Or-egbiv:- t':W;e are informed by gentlemen that both the mounts (St, Helen and Baker) are sending forth volumes of smoke, giving undoubted evidence that their volcanic fires are not yet extinguished. The. craters from which the smoke was issuing in St. Jlelen were two in numbers, and low down the North and Northeast sides; while in Mount Baker, which is a perfect cone, the smoke was is ?ThiFusiUvSlave Law. s It appearsTthat before the Edent .gave hisj unction to this" law he submitted it to "the Attor ney General,-Hon.

This opinion has, within the last few days, been published, for the purpose of allaying if possible, the excitement which prevails alfovef the 'free States against the law. - Mr. Crittenden enjoys a" high reputation as a lawyer, as a statesman, and as. a Humane and be nevolent individual.,.

The Daily News, on com petent authority, says " that there can now be no doubt that Sir John Franklin has passed up Wel lington Inlet ; that his ships are probably frozen in there ; and that the encampment at Point Riley was formed by a detachment sent to be on the lookout for vessels, who returned to their the ships, when their provisions were exhausted, or when the winter set in." There is much plausibility -in this view, and we welcome the hope that at sug gests. fl The Pope has issued a bull prohibiting Roman Catholic parents from sending their children to Protestant schools, either in Prance or England, and young ladies from teaching or taking part in them. Paris, Oct. 10. The cavalry review, which has excited so much interest here, took place to-day at the camp de Saiory. An immense crowd from the neighboring places attended. The number of the troops was, altogether, 25,000. The cries, with few exceptions, were " Vive le President," but "Vive la Republic," was not heard. It is sta ted as positive that a decision respecting the llol stein question has been come to by Prance, Eng land, Austria, and other German states, in favor of Denmark, and that the Duchies will be informed that they must refrain from further hostilities, and await the award of the intervening parlies. In an ticipation probably of this, the Holstein army has withdrawn from Freiderishstadt. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. The Schlcswig-Holstein army attemped to take Fried richstadt by storm, at four P. M. on the 5th, but were repulsed by the Danes. The army of the Duchies is in position at Sunderstapel. Its loss is considerable, particularly in officers. Our dates from the seat of war are to the morn ing of the 5th inst. After bombarding part of the town during the preceeding day, and after destroy ing the large block house close to the road, the town was in the evening attacked by two battal-" lions of infantry and a detachment of riflemen. The principal church was burning at the time, and one end of the town was one complete mass of flame. After a desperate struggle, in which both sides must experienced very heavy losses, the Danes gave way a little, but only to Beek the cover of new entrenchments and barricades thrown up in the middle of the town. The reststance which they met with here was so violent and determined, that notwithstanding the most brilliant bravery, the Schleswig-Holsteiners were conceited to re tire from the town at midnight. They took up a new position some what in advance of ihe old, and the conflict was to be renewed on the follow ing morning. The losses sustained by ihe Schle-swig-Holsleriners are yet unknown. Altona letters state that the loss above spoken of was nearer 500 than 300 man. We have the following correspondence relating to the second attack, dated Hamburg, Oct. 6. " The Scheleswig Holstein corps has again made an attempt to storm Friedrichstadt and with no better success. The troops ritired last night to a position between Sunderstapel and Sethe, with a loss of six hundred men. The withdrawal was covered by the Christainsen battery, and lighted by the flames of the burning city- I talked to, day with asoilder who was one m the assailing gorps. He 3poke of the block houses and entrenchments which the Danes had constructed at Friedrithstadt, as bulwarks so impregnable that the cannon shot had no affect upon them. After storming one breach, the troops would push on, believing that the road was clear, when suddenly a whole suc cession of new works became visible. The drum was incessantly beaten to the attack ; assault fol lowed assault but all in vain. The bullets flew round like hail, while the burn ing houses sent a scordhing heat. A bridge broke with a number of men on it; nearly all perished. Carelessness was imputable, for no offier should have trusted to approaches left by the enemy. The garison of Friedrichstadt, originally consisted of three battalions and had been considerably in ., , , J" ,v ' r.i, -,,m i creased. The communications with ilusum have cuing in dence masses from the centre ol the sum- ' -i4'"ov-v' . . miu.- It is probable that these are the only living volcanoes in Oregon." Feaeful Sport A. correspondent writes us, that a "member of Mr. White's shool, Amberst, Mass. a lad of 17 on Saturday, the 12th. having a rifle-In his hand loaded with a ball, in snort olaced ihemuzle under his chin, and said to another I that he Holsteiners would withdraw from before been almost uninterruptedly maintained, and Danes have been seen marching to and fro theEe three days. The colonel of ihe 6th battalion had been taken prisoner by the Danes." Our letters of the 7th.inst. contain only the con firmation of the report of the storming of Fred- richstadt, and further details. It was expected youth present, " see how easy a man could kill himself;" at the same time placing his foot against the hammer, and pushing it back until it had near ly 'cocked, when, his foot slipped, the hammer fell upon the cap, and the rifle discharged. The chin was entirely blown away, and the ball passed through the back of his head. The unfortunate youth never knew what hurt him. His name was Frederick Goodale. Boston Traveller. Mr. Clay was received with great demonstra tions of respect and popular enthusiasm on his ar rival at Lexington. Bonfires were kindled and can non discharged in his honor, and an immense' crowd assembled to meet him. He was compelled to make a speech to the multitude. After thank ing them for their kindness, and making a few re niarks'upon the conditition of the country, he told them that, happy as he was to meet them, there wa3'an old lady about a mile and a half off (point ing to Ashland) with whom he had lived fifty years,andwhom he would rather see than all of them.; He was released, after this good naturcd remark, and suffeied to go home. ihe place, as they could not invest it from the north and west. Half the town is destroyed. The Holstein army is to be increased by four battalions, or more than 5000 men. Some gamblers in Boston recently paid a round sum for the rent of a field where a military muster was to be held. The military changed the place afterwards, and the gamblers applied to the owner of the field for a return of their money. The own er replied that there was the field, and they were at perfect liberty to occupy it upon the days de signated; but as to returning the money, he could 'nt think of it. great blast was made on the Hudson River Railroad last week, by which nearly thirty thousand cubic feet of solid rock were loosened. The blast, in which 36 kegs of pow der were used, was successfully set off by the action .of a galvanic battery, under direction of Professor Morae: More than three miles of clcgraph wires were used tin the occasion, thenceforward have much less respect either, for the Constitution or for the Judges of that Gourt than we now feel. The Constitution (section 9,j provides, that lthe privilege, of the writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended unless when, in cases of rebellion or invnsjnn. the nublifi safety mav require it." This j g j , is the great writ for the protection ofpersonal lib-. erty. It lies, where a person being indicted or. im prisoned (and an illegal arrest is in law an " im prisonment") unlawfully or unconstitutionally, ap plies to another tribunal for relief in the premises. Mr. Criuenden says there is nothing in the bill in question which conflicts with, or suspends, or was intended to suspend the privilege of the writ of Habeas Corpus. I think so, because the biU says not one word about that writ." Now, let us see what the bill does say, and then we shall be prepared to judge of the soundness of the Attorney General's opinion. The bill enacts that the cer tificate of a Commissioner "shall prevent all mo lestation of said person or persons the claimant and his agents by any process issued by any Judge, Magistrate, or other person whomsoever." The Habeas Corpus is a " process issued" in behalf of freedom. It is obvious, therefore, notwithstand ing the opinion of the Attorney General, that the bill does declare that the writ of Habeas Cprpus shall not issue in the case of a person arrested as a fugitive, slave. We beg leave to digress a . few moments, in or der to set the enormity of this feature of the law in its true light. The word slave, or slaves, is not used in the act. It speaks only of 'fugitives from service or labor.' An apprentice owes service or labor to his or her master, and so does a minor child to his or her pa rent. This act, then, reverses all the laws of this state, and other states, regulating 44 masters, ap prentices and servants," as well as of "parent and child." A man-thief has but to come among us, demand our children as his children, claim that they " owe him service," or demand them as ap prentices who "owe him service or labor," and we are forbid the right to try the question whether the vjllian's claim is true or false. If a man should claim our horse or cow as his, we could resist his demand, and compel him to substantiate his claim here on the spot or to abandon it ; but if he has the audacity to claim another's child as his own, or as his apprentice, there is no appeal save to "the higher law," and that appeal ihe supporters of this act hold to be treasonble. Let us cease this digression. The Constitution (Art. 5, of ihe Amendments) says that no person shall be 'deprived of life liberty, or property, without due process of law." Is that a 4 due process of Law' which strikes down the privilege of the writ of Habeas Corpus, "and -virtually denies the right of Trial by Jury ? It is to insult the understand ing of the community to call that a 4 due process.' It is a 4 process' precisely identical to that adopt ed by the Russian Tyrant to spirit off to Siberia ihose inhabitants of his empire who are so impru dent as to avow liberal principles. The Constitution declares that 'any person held to service or labor in one state under the laws thereof, escaping into another, shall be delivered up,' &c. Mark the expression ! The meaning clearly is ' another state" not a tertitory. A slave, then, escaping from a territory into a state, or from a state into a territory, cannot constitution ally be pursued and remanded into slavery. Of course, that portion of ihe fugitive slave law which authorizes the arrest of a slave who fled, or may flee, from the District of Columbia, or from any territory, is unconstitutional and void. But it is said, 'the compromises of the Con stitution must be observed; these men are not cit izens, but only slaves." This is said by men who have no rebuke for the plain and intentional vio lation of the Constitution by South Carolina, Geor gia, and Louisiana, in imprisoning colored north ern seamen, and selling them to pay jail fees. But fugitive slaves are not the only persons dis turbed by the law recently enacted. Every col ored person in the free states is liable to be arrest ed and to be carried into slavery under this bid. The affidavits of two perjured accomplices, would be sufficient in most cases. It is on this account that this law has carried consternation into the dwelling of almost every colored family in the free states, and that men, women and children, born of free parents, and pursuing their honest occupa tion, are now living by day and night in constant dread of molestation. Honesdale Democrat. i mm tnd on the Amenawiemt Question. Canal Commissioner Auditor Gen. Surveyor Gen. Amendment. sr. COUNTIES .ft'; n kut V. v. Oi,d VVhitev. This famous war charger, used by Gen. Taylor in most of his celebrated battles in Mexico, passed through Harrisburg in a canal boat on Sunday last, on his way to the West. He was visited (says the Telegraph) by hundreds of citizens, and generally seemed pleased with their attentions. The old fellow was pronounced to be about fifteen years old, and has what are called 'glass eyes.' At Columbia, where he ar rived in the cars, there was a fireman's celebra Hon with music when he arrived, which elated him that he almost broke through the car. The music appeared to revive his recollections of the glories he had attained to under the same trains. A story of the imprisonment of several Ameri can sailors by the Araba on the west coast of Af rica was put in circulation some lime since, and at the time generally believed. Com. Powell, of the United States ship John Adams, of the Afri can squadron, recently endeavored to find their whereabouts, in order to release them from captiv ity; but, after the most thorough search along the coast for a distance of more than thirty miles, Com. P. came to the cpnclusion that the entire story was without foundation. Portandic, the town where they were said to have been confined, is but a short distance from the French colony of Senegal, the inhabitants of which place knew nothing of the affair. The tanneries of South Danvers, Mass. occupy 3,8-10 vats and use 150,000 hides a year, and 9200 cords of bark. - Several very extensive tanneries have lately been erected in Susquehanna county.

A new-Yorker in California, wruing from San Francisco to his friend in this City, says : " California, wish all its wickedness and li censed hella, will not stoop for a moment to ihe meanness of Northern Slates in succum bing to Slavery. A case occurred in one of our 'towns' recently, in which a man had his slave brought before a Judge to compel him to obedience. The Judge heard the parties at lengih, and then gave his deci&ion at length, the cream of it being : t As we found no Slavery in the country when we came here, the Court acknowledges no such peculiar institu tion, and the man is at liberty to go where he chooses." Very soon after, however, he was brought in by a crowd, again, to answer for having commiticd an assault and baitery upon his master, knocking him down, &c; and also for resisting the Sheriff who attempted to arrest him. Arguments were again heard, at the close of which the Judge said : " As the Sheriff attempted to arrest him, without a writ, the man was justifiable in his resistance ; and as his so-called master had no right to lny his hand upon the man, the latter merely acted in self-defence ; and there was, consequently, no cause of action." So he was again at liberty. It is astonishing how soon they learn the mean ing of that word, and practice its precepts. They are a very happy set of fellowB here, tfs they do just as they please, and the most grum bling I hear about it comes from our own mean Yankees, whom the negroes laugh at for their value of a picayune. One fact 1 have noticed, which 9, at the eating-houses a colored man will walk in and take his seat at the general table, and no Southern man object, while low deep curses will be muttered by some from the North, and East patticularly. New President of Lafayette College. The Trustees met at Philadelphia, on Friday last, arid elected Dr. D. V. McLean, of Free hold, New Jersey, President of this Institution. Mr. McLean ts a man of ability, and we under stand of considerable wealth. We hope the College under his charge may prosper. The Winter Session commences next month, and it is expected that the President will move to our Borough immediately. Eastonian. Awful Acoident. A german by the name of John Openauf fer, fell into the large cooling tub, containing hot swill, on Friday las, at Yohe's distillery. He remained in the boiling hot liquid about three minutes. In taking off his clothes and shoes a few minutes afterwards, all the skin was removed from his body, and the nails from his toes. He was so terribly scalded that even his hair fell out. The uufotunate man lived in this terrible condition until the next morning, and retained his senses until l he last. Ih. Catasaqua Iron Works. The following from the Philadelphia Co.il mercial List, gives the history of these inter eatins works, and the effects of different Tariff regulations upon their prosperity. In 1839 several enterprtseng citizens of Phil adelphia, deiermined to erect a furnace for the manufacture of anthracite iton, a process which had then been only recently discovered and brought into use by Mr. Crane in England. They selected a piece of ground on the line of the Lehigh canal, three miles above Allen town, Lehigh county, in which iron ore of ex cellent quality and limestone were found in close proximity. Late in 1839 the timber was cut from the ground, and in 1840 a furnace was erected capable of producing 4000 tons of pig metal annually. During the summer we visited the place and found the furnace had just been blown in. Three or four houses had been erected ihat year and several others were in progress for the- workmen, being the only buildings within some distance of the place. The experiment succeeded, and under the tar iff of 1842, the proprietors erected that year another furnace to produce 400 tons, and anoth er in 1846, propelled by steam, of 7200 tons. In 1849 iwo additional furnaces of 8000 tons each were commenced, which were completed early in 1S50, and put in blast. These works all belong to the same propretors, the "Crane Iron Co." During a summer excursion we visited this place in July last, and found it had becdmo a large town, ereccd entirely for those dependent upon and engaged in these works. This is another evidence of the advantage of encouraging our home manufacturers. Un der the present tariff, enacted to benefit Great Britain, all our furnaces, except those advan tageously located, must stop, unless prices ad vance, and nearly all the rolling mills have already suspended operations, by which sus pension thousands of hardy and industrious mechanics have been thrown out of employ ment. Adjoining Catasaqua is Burysport. It, too, is dependant upon these furnaces for employ ment, and contains a population of 400 to 500 persons, principally employed in these works The whole population of Catasaqna is 884, z : 245 from Ireland ; 68 from Wales ; 32 from Germany ; 9 from England ; 4 from Scot land : and 527 were born in the United States. Cost of ore, coal and limestone consumed 8250,000. In IS50 the product of these fur naces will be 25,000 tons. Impudent. To ask an unmarried lady' how old &he is.
