If Mr. Seward in this effort, will lake the mantle of henry Clay, and , etnidating ' example of the "Great Pacificator" dismiss all personal con. siderations, and throw hioLself into the breach between, the eolnding factions, he will en. title himself to the lasting gratitude of his country. We believe he has the power and influence to heal the dissensions, if he chooses to net as_tr mediator. If Ife refuses, then let the ultra men of both sections, who have set the political cauldron to boil and bubble with their heldbroth, stand aside for the people, who in the end, must, be the petteC•llrlkeni TILE 11ORDEIL COMittITTEE The members of Congress, from the Border States, comprising Maryland, Virginia, tlto souri, North Carolina, Texas, Kentucky, Del aware, Arkansas, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, net in caucus, and appointed a committee of ono from each State, to submit a proposition ; on which to base a compromise of the present difficulties between the South anti the North. Senator: Crittenden was Chairman of the Committee. On tho 4th inst., they adopted the following • propositions: Recommending tbe`lrepeul of nil person liberty bills. An efficient amendment to thefttgitiio slave law, preventing kidnapping, equalizing the commissioners' fee, &c. That the constitution be So an - tended as io prohibit any interference with slavery in any of the Statel._ That Congress shall not. abolish slavery in the dock-yards, etc:,•or in the District of Col umbia, without the consent of Maryland, and the consent of the inhabitants °film District,. nor without compensation. That Congress shall not interfere with the inter-Sitite slave trade. That 'there Hindi be a perpetual prohibilion of the African slave trade. That the line 80 degrees 30 minuteS shall be run through all the existing territory of the United States, and in all north of that line slavery shall be prohibited, and south of that line neither Congress nor the territorial Legis lature shall hereafter pass any law abolishing, prohibiting, or in any way interfering with African slavery; and when any territory con-, Wiling a sufficient population for one member of Congress in any urea of 60,000 square. miles shall apply for admission as a State, it shall be affinitted, with or without slavery, as its 0011:41 ii ution may determine. It is arid, this compromise is not accepted by the South, They do mit' ivish the slavery question to remain an open one south of the line, believing ENS by such a course, tho scenes of Kansas would be revived . They de- mood the recognition of * slavery south of the line, until the territory shall be divided into States, when the people,, in their sovereign capacity, may alter or confirm their States in regard to it. The Republican members, held a caucus to receive the report of the border—nommitteo, Mr. lisle, of Pennsylilipia, it, resenting the 'report said that he believed the mem,bers of his cAnnittee representing the border slave States would agree to liis proposition, that all the territory of the United Staten north of thity• • degrees thirty minutes 'should free, id all south'of tha't-line to remain as it is ith liberty to the people to organize into tlttcs whenever they please, with or without slavery. Ile was of the opinion that it might be better for the north to take thia 4 proposition titan to precipitate the country into war. Mr. lloward, of Michigan, objected. to any compromise, because he believed it would be an acknowledgement of error. Mr. Lovejoy, of Illinois, spedking of the malcontents of the slavc States, and the pro posed compromise of dividing the territory between freedom and slavery to the Pacific, said: "There never was a more causeless revolt Mace Lucifer led his cohorts of apostate angels against the throne of God. but I never:lmolai that the Almighty proposed to comprognise,The matter by allowing the rebels to kindle the fires of boll south of the celestial merigati of , . thirty-sil4"lhirty Mr. Sherman stated that, as a mernber'of the border States, ho could neither. vote for the proposition proposed by Mr. Halo, nor that proposed by Mr. Crittenden, to restore the Missouri line and extend it to the Pacific. Ile was also oppoesd to the compromise to prevent the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia. • Messrs. Grow; Stevens • and Hickman of Pennsylvania, and Case and Pettit of Indiana, expressed themselves decidedly opposed to all compromise.. No cote was taken on any the propositions, and the caucus adjourned.

The ran corous feeling behimen' the North and South is not of yesterday, It is the 'full harvest Of twenty years of arrogant anti agre,ssive policy by the pro•slavery poworin Congress, backed up by the pliant tools among the DoniO6ritcy of the North. For ten l ,3.ears, the Detilocralic Party has been daily losing • its -hold on the People; for by'a fatuity, so often observable in action, they have carried out a poli cy utterly at war with the conservative senti ment of the people North and South; the re: peal of the 'Missouri compromise, the attempt. to acquire Cuba, the •encouragement given to firlibustering, the reopening of the African Slave Trade, and the efforts, to force a slave constitution on Kansas; created nn intense hatred against the Democratic party, and with it a 'desire to drive it front power.

This festival of the Christian Chinch it is said, was instituted in the 4th century ; to com memorate the manifestations of our Saviour to the Gentiles, and the name Fleiphany (which signifies an appearance from, above) given to hp allusion to the star, described hs the glade of thO wise men; to the cradle of the in fant Saviour.

The " United States Railroad and Mining Register," in, referring to thooonservative sentiment-which prevails in Pennsylvania, al ludes as follows to the geographic position which renders her the " Keystone" of the Federal arch: Penneylvrinia is in the Union. The ens tern boundry- of Pennsylvania is marked by a rive'r'which , pnce bore the name of •Soui h river,' and which flows south pasta State and into a bay which betirs its own name, Delaware. The interior river of Pennsylvania. the Susquehanna, fed by the Swatara mutt he Lack awanna, which flows down from the mountains in the anthracite coal regions on the east ; and 'by the Juniata and the We-t Drone'', which decends from the heights Of the Allegheny on We west, meanders south into Maryland, where it empties into Chesapeake Bay, and thence __passes its venters out into 'the ocean, through illel'apes of Virginia.' • F' The Western river of Pennsylvania, the, Ohio, from its halftime' font nt Pittsburg, where the Allegheny and the Monongahela come togetheroasses away down to the south west, between the borders of Ohio and ginia, and along the boundaries' of Indiaila and Illinois and Kentucky, till it joins and merges in the Mississippi, and seeks the gulf on the bosom oft he 'Father of Waters.' The great lakes, too, which leash the mliores of Minne,ota, _Wisconsin and . Michigan,„am well as ihti frontiers of 'lndiana and Ohio, sweep past the harbOr_ of Erie, In Penn . sulvania, on their inorth•eastern journey to thdeccan. through the Gulf of St.. Lawrence. So much for 'the water-ways of Peupsyl vania, which pass out into the see through the water gates of the St. Lawrence, the pelewere, the Chesapeake and the Missiseippf ; whilst the main water-shed of Pennsylvesik the Allegheny Mountains stretches far evatiy to the south, turning the waters of Western Vir ginia, Kentucky and Tennessee, down into the lap of the Ohio Valley, to mingle with streams which greet them from sources in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indians and Illinois. Pennsylvania, therofore,•in common with the States in the Ohio Valley, miiit have free ost.let via the Mississippi, and in this vital sense she is a Western State. Pennsylvania must enjoy free navigation of the Lakes, in common with Now York, and in this sense she is a Northern State. Pennsylvania must have a free outlet via Chesapeake Bay, and in this sense she is a Stin'hern State. Pennsylvania has her seaport upon the Delaware, and-ships thence her coals to the East, and in this sense she is an Eastern State. • Pennsylvania, con sequently, has ties end interests in the South, the Southwest, the West, the Northwest, the North and the East; being in variety dove-tail ` ed and interlocked into the Union on all sides, alike in interest and affection,, Pennsylvania, if lhe worst comes to worse, cannot be expelled . or dislodged from a Union reaching at least from the Chesapeake Bay to Lake Erie, and from the Delaware river to the far West.
