Now we have no anthoiity to pledge or con trol the votes ol oilier abolitionists, but we give it frankly, as an obvious inference from the above facts—and it is all the inference, we w.sh to make—that for abolidonists to lend any support to -ueb a candidate will be to renounce j their principles and nullity their measures, and i that it will be more honorable for abolitionists 1 to allow uuy other candidate lo be elected with out their votes, than for them to give their votes, und -rany circumstances, to Henry Clay.

The parlies met again on Monday, when Morrison gave Milne some matches to use ns a signal foi a boat to put off from the American stihre; pointed out the place where the latter was to be in waiting; told him to use the word “Mflrrcau” as a countersign; and informed him that the parties who would come over to assist in hi., escape were VValker a publican, Lane, and Smith, a gu n , smith, all residing on the American side, and all ol whom would be armed in case of an atiank. Things being thus pm in train, Milne arrested the precious scamp, and ho is now in limbo as above slated. A party of Dragoons went to the place of ren dezvous, and the signal having been made as di rected by Morrison, a boat put oil'from the Yan kee shore, and on nearing this side the boatmen bailed, when Milne etied ont“Morreau.” From nn error in using a concerted signal prematurely, the boatmen became alarmed and pushed off dragging 100 of the dragoons, who had seized the’ boat tor the purpose of boarding it, into deep wa. ter, and they, having their carbines in one hand, had to swim ashore with the o'her. The boat I was armed; two or three shots were fired into it, with what effect wo cannot learn. It is slated in an English paper, that a Mr. : McCall has suggested to the British Post Office ib parlment, a plan for transmitting a mail from I, ndon to the most distant parts of Irrdand in litrccn hours, and to America, via Valcntra, in seven days. The plan is to avail himself, he r ,a ys, “of the wind which prevails eleven months in the year, leading in'o V’exford and Fishguard harbors, with tides a beam, which would insure punctuality ;” whereas, he says, the Holyhead packets have repeatedly taken three days to per. form the voyage between Kingslfm and Holyhead, a distance of only sixly-lvvo miles. He proposes to extend the Great Western Railway to Fish, guard, thence to Wexford by steam-packets, and by railway tbenre to Dublin, By this plan be says only one mail between London and every part of Ireland will bo requisite; and the Lon don mails ran arrive in I ,e most distant parts of Ireland in fifteen hours. Regard ng the Ameri ca!! voyage, he adds, a railway from Wexford to Valentia, as a foreign packet station, will bring Gnat Britain and America within seven days sad by steam packets. This plan is similar to Uje one suggested -omo lime before the design of s'eam roxn-r-uninnion between England and New \ ork was carried into execution. It was then proposed n*ni! fully to cany out the plan on this si-.o id the Atlantic by constructing a rail road Ifom New York the whole length of Long Island, ami thence to connect wiih the British provinces by steam boats.— Baltimore liepublican.
