A C(IitttECTION
During the•rpeech of Mr. Stevens. in Con
gres.,i, on Tuesday last, some eonversn'tionSoe
edired,betw.een him and others, relative to the
reported outrage:, in Southern and Northern
States, when 'Mr. Webster of Marylona' 'said
he "wished to tell NIT'. Stephens what he had
seen. When he was a student at Carlisle Col
lege, he saw a white nura who went after his
negroes murdered in th'ntreet."
Can it be Ivondered at, that there should be
so much mimpprehonsion of facts aniong‘ the
people, Northltud South, when men occupy
ing prnntinent.Tosit lops will make statements
ro utterlyclit. variance with, thc . truth, to suit
• t heir present purpoSe, •
The Slave riot at Carlisle; has been ..o
•
quentlY alluded t 0,.. that' we feel inclined 'to
give ah.rief.shtternent of the occurrence.
In Dirt, Mr. Kennedy, of Hagerstown;M.l.
'with ode or Iwo others canto fu Cat:lisle, in
mearch of fugitive slaves. The slai•es were ar
rested by our civil Mlieers and lodged in jail,
until brought up for :Cite:lring before dodge
Hephurn. During the inVestigntipt, it was
discovered that. the Act of 1847, just passed,
took all jurisdiction froth the Court, in the
case of fugitive slaves. The. invest iga t ion was
nt once closed, and the judge told Mr. Ken
. nedy, to take his slaves; a carriage was sent,
r
for, and in the act of getting them in, a large
mob of colored men, who had gathered around
the Court !louse door, Made a rush and o gene
ral riot occurred, itt which two of the slaves
made their escape. Mr. Kennedy ; in the act
of running, tripped nail fell. on the corb-sione,
severely injuring his knee. he was efirricd Io
a hotel and'phoed under the care' of one of
our best physiciaus. Ile remained,'het'c for
some weeks, and had so far recovered the use
of Itis -that he was about to•return.home
when, in the evening, before' he intended to
leave, he indulged heartily in eating sobte in
digestible' food, contrary to the adVice of his
physician, was taken suddenly ill in the night,
and died before morning. ,
Prejudice could hardly say, that the occi
dental injury rile. Kennedy received, was evfn
the remote of his death, and had the
citizens of the place, su,pected an attempt t.t
reSoue, on the part of the black., it -would have
ken effectually prevented. 110 it was, fifteen
..'./!4:theill were convicted of riot, and sent to
the Penitentiary.
The Immediate friends of Mr. Kennedy;
could not hove regretted the ocenrreMle more
than the citizens ufle, , and it' is n gross
outrage on. the port of Mr. IVelister, to cost
uch an imputation on them, by a perversion
of the facts.
11=
The free.soil, anti ittriff Republicans of
New York, of which faction, Horace Creely
tioumes to be I.lmOs mouth piece, have' been
using every effort to induce Mr. Lincoln to
reconsider his offer to lieu. Cameron, of a
seat in liiipealdnet; but so ft,, ive hope and
believe, without effect.
The tariff rstcord of Mr. Cameron does' not
suit the arttkariff elements of New York,
which,. actuated by "a narrow 'selfish policy,
"Irathl - strike - dowit the ifidustrial ii:teres'ts vof
Pennsylvania to build up their own ; aid .
the recent declarations or Mr. Cameron hi the
Senate, in favor of coneiliation, So as to
strengthen the IJO6O me'n of the Itot:dcr
'F.tatt.s,. has yonsed the ire of Mr. (freely,
whoSe free•s:rilproclivities are alarmed at
the prospects of , asettlement ; and hence he
untkrtakes to read Mr: Cameron out -0f41Le,..
party, in the following. ahnotincement:
In the Scents yesterday, according to etv
congressional report, Mr. Cameron announCed
his readiness to sustain the compromise pio•
positions of Mr..l3igler for the surrender of-
Northern' rights and Republican principles,
and was_duly compliniented by the Southern
Senators.. This, we presume, will be • sutli•
eject to.setle his claims to a seat,,in
Lincoln's Cabinet. If tic be ..tvalfreport.l
ed, be maybe considered to have• formally.
separated from the Republican party. •
Oaineroa was truly
.Kiportcd, when ho
said•he would fa-or any compromise, and make
any.reasonable concession that would giro
pence to the country, and save the Union ;
aittalstend of being ostracized by the party,
he is today, stronger than ever.
. The following dispatch to the Philadelphia
North Iterican, sztUea the question for the,
•
present:
Harrisburg, Tau. 2'.7.Mr. P. Posen, one
of the Committee froM the Republican Club,
of Philadelphia, to Springfield, has'. just re-
turned to this place. "He says the appoint
ment of Gen. Simon. Cameron as Secretary
of the Treasury is •cartaiu. The opposition
to his appoithment, he states, was confined
to a very ,mall circle-in this State. it being
principally from the free traders of Now York.
The appointment . -of Mr Cameron may
stilt be an open question, but, it is certainly
no argument against him that he is willing.
to yield something of his political feeling in
the common desire to 'heal the breach now
existing between the North and the South.
Mr. Greely and his,satteliteS,must be taught
that the country now requires patriots, not
politicians.
The Attack ou Washington

To'quiet his apprehensions, we ekkact the

. .
There is not a word of truth in the rumor
that tin armed force is being organized in Vir

of Columbia. The idea of any such fillibuster=,
ins expedition has never been seriously enter
tained by any !non for eornomeut, and, more
over there is not the slightest unusual activity
knOurmilitary circles. I have never seen fewer
paiodes, or less military 'ardor, in this city at
least; And it is because, as a sensible member
of the Sonia of Delegates said the other day,
•we do not belieyo thopeople of the Northern
States are a set, of assassins, 'robbers. bucca

Congressmen, withheld the proposition. ,
Gov. Picrene now tells. Commissioner Ilayne
to make a final demand for the forts, and re')
pinholes the position of the President when he
soya he has no power to give them up, but
must leave it to Congress.

Preamble and Resolutions made and.adOpi•
ed at a Union meeting held in Newville,
on Saturday evening, January 12, 18tH
Whereas, recent events have convinced us
that efforts have been made, and are still be
ing made, for a dissolution of our glorious
Union, by selfish 'demagogues and unprinci
pled party leaders, aided and abetted by those
_whet are blinded by their prejudices and led
estray by their scruples.
Whereas, the conduct of many our Sena.
tore and Representatives seem to indicate that
they are more influenced by personal consid•
orations, and the illusions of a selfish atnbi
Lion, than by a desire to settle the political
and financial difficulties of our country, and
avert the horrors of such a civil war •as the
world-has never yet witnessed; and
Whereas, We believe that their own inter
ests, separate from all sentiments of patriot•
jean, will force them to listen to the united
wishes of many thoulands of conservative
citizen's of the United States, without (listing,
tion of party ; and ' •
Whereas, %Ye view with srrow and appre•
beasion the rapidly increasing feelings of
distrust and animosity with which the differ•
out sections of the country regard ono'auoth•
er, end which threaten our very existence as
a intact) i and .
• Whereas, We are ready to sacrifice all ,
our minor differences and dogmas on theal
tar. of the common good to which our fathers
pledged theirdives, their,lbrtunes and their
sacred honor,L-Therefore,
'Re;if g red, That we, citizens of Cumberland
