staves belonging to the citizens of this state :
we are bound to do as we were doue by,
and allow other states burthened with a black
population, to select the time and prescribe
the mode of emancipation, without intrusion
on the pnrl of tlieir neighbors.
Resolved, That while our Southern breth
ren are impressed with the belief, that the
mischievous attempts of the abolition and
anti-slavery associations, have a tenden
cy to provoke a general assassination of the
white population in the slave-holding states, it
is not surprising that they should express them
selves with warmth, and even with occasional
harshness, at this unjustifiable interference
with their domestic affairs, in violation of
the agreement between the several States
wheu the constitution was adopted.'
Resolved, That the people of the South
will do us great injustice if they ullow them
selves to believe that the few among us, who
are interfering with the question of slavery,
are acting in accordance with the sentiment
of the North on this subject; and we do not
hesitate to assure them that the great body
of the Northern people entertain opinions sim
ilar to those expressed in these resolutions.
Finally, Resolved, That we make these
declarations to our Southern brethren in the
same spirit of amity, which bound together
their fathers and ours, during a long and
eventful struggle for independence, and that
• we do, in full remembrance of that common
association, plight to them our faith to maintain
in practice, so far ns lies in our power, what
We have thus solemnly declared.
Insane as this class of men' are, they can-
not'believe for a moment that their scheme
can ever be carried into effect. They know
it is in its nature impracticable, and that it
must lead to bloodshed and confusion at the
South, and endanger the Union of the States.*

“The whigs have elected, as one of their

of the signers of the Circular lately, issued by
the abolitionists.here,”..
Here we have a member of the Whig Com.
mittee, at the same lime an active agent in
the abolition business. It will bo found in the
end, that political whigism in the South and
fanatical whigism in the North, are just such
enemies to each other as Mr. Webster and
Mr. Calhoun are to each other. In Boston,
no man abhors Mr. Calhoun and Nullification
more than Mr. Webster. In Charleston, Mr.
Calhoun is the antipode of Mr. Webster; but

LATE FROM FRANCE AND ENG. '/

By the packet ship Poland, thirty three
days from Havre, 'boarded off Gay Head, and
the packet ship Columbia, Cnpt. Cobb, arri-
ved at New York, we have accounts from
Havre and Liverpool to the 31st and from
London and Paris to the 30th July inclusive.
The most important intelligence brought by
theso arrivals are the details of an unsuccess
ful attempt on the life of the King-of France
and his Sons, by an infernal machine, while
on parade in celebrating the trots jours. It
does not appear that this was the result of an
extensive conspiracy, but it is impossible to do
away the impression that, political' consul
erations led to the attempt, the effect bf which
will be to strengthen the power of Louis Phil
iippe, and afford excuses for strong conserva
tive^ measures which will abridge the liberty
of speech and the press. * ■ r '- ~

awful and deadly nature of the perpetration
became apparent. The cries of the wounded
were heard—dreadful confusion ensued—and
then for the first time, people learned that a
shower of balls had been fired alt the King

of a marshal of France, the feather stained
with blood. This was the hat of Marshal
Mortier, Due de Trevise—this gallant man
(one of Napoleoh’s warriors) had been in
stantaneously killed by one of the balls of the
infernal machine. The King’s arm was gra-
zed by'a ball, his horse wounded in.the neck,
but he displayed great coolness, and instantly
rode up to the house whence the discharge

pied his proper place in the procession, his
would have been the forfeit life. ; He did not
take the centre of the Road, but retained'that
place on the side, next the troops he had been

incompetent judges in this case. They say,
“ It is not our province to bring forward the

if it .were, we are too little acquainted with
the gentlemen composing it to do so.” They
have passed judgment between the two parties,
with a confession in tlieir mouths, that they
do not know what are the merits of one of
