Tbe greater part as these runaways hava escaped from At kaasas, hot at less: five hand red are, it is said, fhgitrvaa from Texas.

Tha eonfbanea whieh wo srprssssd in so correct aot % of the report has boon eoaflrmod by tho intelligence sices raoeivod, and which invests tho affair with tha character of one as tha bloodiest end most horn bio of outrages. The particulars which wo hava haanahla to gaehat ’ ap to the time of writing thin are iaooom de gree contradictory, hot this may ho ezplaiood by ftartbar accounts. Tho following details | are the most reliable that have coma to onr knowledge: A party es persons from Baltimore County, consisting es Mr. Edward Gorsuch, his sea Diofcineoa Gorsaeb, fail nephew Joehaa Gor sach, Dr. Thomas Peirce, Nathan Nelson, Nicholas Hau'hins, and another person whoso name wo have beau unable to ascertain, went into Pennsylvania for the purpose of recover ing two runaway alavoo, belonging to the el der Goreueh, and who v. era known to bo har boring ia Chester county, at a small place call ed Christiana, between Lancaster and Phila delphia. The party secured tbe aid of a deputy U. S Marshal, ai d of several police officers from Philadelphia, aod on Thursday morning pro ceeded to the neighborhood in which tho slaves were enppoaed to be secreted. When near i the boose to which their suspicions were di rected they met two negro men, one of whom i waa recognised by Mr. Gorsuch as bis slave. The whites gave chase and tbe negroes ran and succeeded in getting into (he boose, whieh i was closed against the panning parties. A born or bagle was then sounded by tbe ne groes in the bouse and a billet of wood was thrown from the windows, striking one of tbe party of whites. In the meantime a consider able crowd, mostly of blacks, began to collect around tbe hon. 1, probably called there by the sound of the bugle. Mr. Gorsuch and bis party attempted to force their way into the apper part of the house where the blacks bad fled, bat finding the ne groes armed with guns, scythes and other weapons and also finding that the crowd on lbs outside was rapidly increasing, attracted by the continued blowing of the born, they cone'tided that it was impornble to effect tbe capture of the negroes, and commenced a re treat from the house. As they left (he house a discharge of firearms took place from the ne groes in the house, and Mr. Edward Gorauch wee instantly shot dead, a ball entering hia breast near the heart, and another taking ef fect in the left shoulder of hia son. The ne groes afterwards rnsbed on the wounded men, and it is said, beat and mutilated them in a shocking manner. The son of Mr. Gorsuch, it is reported, waa entirely disembowelled by a sweeping blow with a ceythe. Mr. J. Gor such aod Dr. Pierce, it is said, was also dan geroualy wounded, and we r e lying at a houte in the neighborhood of tbe scene of the con fliet, in an c'most hopeless condition. An offi cer said to bo from Baltimore, was also wound ed though not mortally, and wrv afterwards taken to Columbia, where he wav lyirg at last accounts. Tbe aon of Mr. Gorauch after his father waa killed, drew a pis'ol and shot dead the negro who bad fired tbe fatal shot. He was then sat up on and barbarously murdered in tbe manner we have stated aoove. Tbe crowd that collect ed about the bouse at the blowing of the born is reported to have amounted to some two hundred, showing evidently that tbe negroes bad been informed of the purpose of the Ma ryland party, and had mads arrangements to oppose them in tbe murderous manner which waa carried out. It is also reported that sev eral of (he novroes were either killed or seriously wounued during the affray, bat this report seems to be unconfirmed by tbe more au thentic accounts. Among the crowd who col lected around the bouse there were a number of whites, who not only relnsed, when called upon by tbe Deputy Marshall, to assist in the enforcement of tbe ’ w and tbe capture of tbe negroes, bat actually encouraged them in their murderous outrages- The receipt of the intelligence of these hor rible outrages has caused tbe meat intense feel ing both in Baltimore county and this city. Mr. Gorauch reaided oo 'he York road, at oat 24 milee from the city, where he was the own er of a fine farm and valuable mill aeat. He was well known throughout the whole coun ty, and we may add, respected and esteemed wherever he was known. His eon, and in deed, all the parties who acted in the affair, were persons of standing and respectability, and the outage perpetrated uoon them whilst lawfully and peacefully attempting to re-pos seas themselves of their properly cannot, of course, but be dciply felt. The slaves they were in aeacch of • An away about a year since. It is supposed that the information which put tbe negroes on their guard, aod enabled them to perpetrate tbe murder which followed, was sent from Philadelphia, where Mr. Gorsuch and hia frien> 1 first went to procure tbe neees r try legal rd. This opinion has confirmation in the statement published ia the Philadelphia Inouirer, which says— From tha beet rep jfi, we learn that the colored population in the vicinity, having been informed of tbe nature of the visit of the offi cera to Ch istiana, held a meeting, and asked tko opinion ofseveral leading Abolitionists as to what course they should pursue. Tbe an swer was, mobs of;he most correot reports states, that Jh 1 ould stand their ground. Ac cordingly, ah, if 80 negroes assembled, with gons, Ac., and secre*ed themselves in the neighboring woods and cornfields. Tbe eig nal of attack on the officers was the blowing of a horn. Whoa the officers cams upon the party, they were surrounded on all sides, and a deadly fire poured upon them by tbe negroes. Additional Pmrtitularo. —Since the above was put in type, we have ascertained from Mr. Merryman, conductor on tbe Susquehanna railroad, who came through from Colombia and Harrisborg yesterday, seme additional nsrticulsrs in relation to this horrible tragedy. Young Dickinson Gorsuch. we are glad to loam, is not yet dead, though hia condition it such as to render hia recovery a matter of extreme denbt. He was shot in tha left shoul der, and also badly beaten and braised by blows with a dub. The report that hs arms mutilated by a eat with a scy the is not correct. He ia still lying at a house in the neighborhood of whore the affray took place. Joshua Gorsuch aod Dr. Pei roe, though beaten and braised by the negroes, we learn ware aot seriously injured. Tha farmer came oa yes terday moraine with the body es old Mr. Gcrouch, which wrv buried yesterday afbr aooa.. The faaeral took place from his late resi dence on tbe York road, sad wes attended fay a large coucoarse of persons from sit parts es tbe omnommhag country, by whom ha was greatly esteemed and respected.

W b have been exceedingly anzioua for a public, eendid acknowledgment by the Con atitntionaiint, that tbe doctrines held by tbe Sontbern Rights party on tbe aobjeet of non intervention are diometriesUy opposiU to tkoa* prscloimed by the Dome erotic forty. mud former ly held by tie most of the present member sos the SoutJteru Rights forty itsefj. We have proved this, by the rneolntiena of the Democratic Conventions, nod by the meet direci nod explicit quotations from ila own columns. The present stale of the question between ns (for it it between,as, though it feigns igno rance of tbe fact) is as follows. We establish ed the fact that it ms for non-intervention. It acknowledged explicitly that it had been, but said that nonintervention earns lee lots, because it came in 1850. We then proved that its own advocacy of non-intervention bore date in 1850. What was it now to do f Its argument was upset, plainly to, even to tbe meanest capacity. The plan it adopted was to deny the obvious meaning of the word. We then quoted from its own columns of May 15th, 18C0—the acknowledgement that, “By tbe Compromise (of the committee of 13) wi oet Territorial government and Roa-UTTsarsKTio■ on the slavery question for the Territories.” We quoted a similar acknowledgment made Apri' 30th, lo&O. Ever since th:s decisive evidence of the tense in which it used the word, it still has tbe hardihood to write of non intervention, as something which «) did not get. If it is not yet “sick and tired” of quibbling on this aobjeet, we believe we can promise that, provided only it u capable of penitence, it shall be aiek, tired and ashamed of ita con duct upon it, before wo got through with this article. Wo do not expect to effect this salu tary end by oar strength, bat by its own. In tbe article of last month (August 22d) it insia.a that by non-intervention was meant, among other things, the following s “Thalia es'ibl'tbing Territorial Governments, thii equal pai.iclpation in them claimed by toe . uthero f jople, should be recognised and secured to them, and tbe p: >ple thus made equa’, left free to de' .rmin* for them:-Ives whether slavery should or at raid not form a part of their i tcial system.” Again, in tbe earns at .isle, speaking of the daty of Congress to remove impedimenta, it aaye: 44 This Congress failed to do. TUa Congress pertinaciously refused ro do. It ws«, is this, dere lict to its doty and to ‘he just claims of the South.” Not relying npon the evident folly of giving the name of “non-intervention” to the ‘ inter vention” demanded by tbe Constitutionalist, we shall refer to ita own columns, of not on wtskprovisos, and shew the explicit acknow ledgment that whet tea did get mot nan-*»Or nsntien If we had bad the writing of it our selves, we eonld have made the acknowledg ment no more explicit. Hera It is: “ True, the-, i Territorial bills did not contain tbs Wfiac: provi x They cootsinsd nondntzrsenliax. Bat nen-intervanticn came too late.”— Cor xtt'ntim. e’iit, Aug. 16th, 1851. The italics are its own. r Wo have offered ila own testimony that hi got non irtirvwNii, taken from tbo paper qf May 19th, 1860. In a former artieie we offered its own teetimany, of April 30th, 1860. Wo now offer the same again, bearing date only Urn doge before ita dmiml. The former ovidoneo it eonridered i»saffi ®iont. Does it wont more f Wo offer It now. In n review of Mr. Toombs’ position on liw California qeestion, it has occasion to refer with greet point nod dfen iarincrian to the true maaning of non intervention. That ■•R wnnld havefn he amaatar es the woof langmge who could oxproaa moro forcibly tbo opinion that **romoving haariia impodiaoenta” winno —tent with tha doeirma ot non-inter vamiou. Ho ridfooioo (the £*teo oI Mr. Tnootno “in I£3o gravely oaßing on Conggoan Bntwe vriff let him apeak for hlmaaif. for be qpaofeo very plainly; •* Ifo.

Now, remsomg these tx-tile impediment-, means rep. ilir 7 those Mexican laws. It cannot mean nay thing erne. This demand of Mr. Toombs is sa ths pissuaaptisn that thess laws rare of force in those Territories, and moot continue (*> until repealed by Cong re m. This has uniformly bcMtbn nonitieu of Mr, Ttnacsaod of Mr. Ste phens. It lathe pr lit 100 of Mr. Clay, and es the Whigaof the Union generally, and of almost the eetire North. Tbe Whig patty of Uenrula stan I divided upon this question. Now, if these laws be of farce, and therefore exclude slavery, if Congre; l repeals them, will it not th -reby reestablish sis vary 7 Ccria'nly it will. Yet Mr. Tcxsos, iu the ta-re sentence, tells Congress he doe* not a*k it to do this, sod denies i»i power to do it. On the other band, it it ab;y end conclusively demonstrated by Judge Berries, tbit Ly tbe eorqusst and ahnexatKa by tfesty, the Federal Coastitntkn became extended ove; Ibe Territories ipso facto, and carried slavery wito >t. Had tbe Claytao Cora promise bill not been defeated by Me rs. Stephens and Tombs, this qu. ion would long since have been -t to rest by a judicial decision, Asitia, ve find .Mr. Tombs, in 1850, grjvely calling on Conxrrcs to pa i a law re pealing anti-slavery laws. He had as well call on Mas a:huo£fs ‘o p?rs c law rr-ot‘ ibliching slavery in that S ate. Tlwre is at >ut as much chance for tbe one as the other.
