G*N. SCOTT.—The Whigs of Michigan, nt their re-

to stand up for the Constitutional rights of the
South, in opposition to the Seward faction.
rp. The returns already received at Washington
City,show that the population of Massachusetts,by the
U. S. Census will be greater than by the State Census,
and that chefcas, without doubt,* little over ono mil-
Ion inhabitants within her borders.
Whites and Blacks: in South Carolina.—
Statistics founded on thmtax returns receded at the
office of tho Comptroller General of South Carolina
give the white population at 280,385, and the slaves
at 358,714.
Free Negroes.—The Jcitlzcns of the District of
Columbia are very uneasy in consequence of the pro
position submitted to the Virginia Reform Conven
tion for the expulsion of the free negroes. They
dread the overwhelming influx of that class, and the
addition that would be made to the ten thousand al
ready residing in the District, a majority of whom
are idle add worthless.
“Northern Men nnd Foreign-born Adopted
Citizens.”
The attempt that is making by certain presses in
this State to woo our "foreign born and northern
citizens," nnd to create the impression on their minds
that tlie advocates of southern rights are,inimical to
them, will bo duly appreciated by htghminded and
honorable men'of nil parties, foreign or native. Our
adopted citizens, who have fledfrom tyranny at home,
nnd who have felt the wrongs oi the oppressor, will
not bo so easily deluded as thoso tacticians snpposo.
They will require some better argument than more
unfounded assertions, before they will be induced to
array themselves in oppositon to thoso who are con*
tending for their just rights, against an unscrupulous
and unrelenting majority, who would reduce this
fair land of tho South to a condition of political vas
salage, equally degraded and hopeless witli that
from which they have fled.
An for our Northern fellow-citizens, thoso who
have cast their lots among us, and who are identi
fied with us in principle» as well as interest—they
urenottho class of meu to be won by sycaphantry
and flattery. They know tho true bearings of the
questions that now agitato the countiy, nnd are too
Arm in their dovotion to the principles of equal Jus
tice and right, to ho moved by tho clap-trap argu
ments, and hypocritical cant of their would-be be-
guilers. It is an insult to the understanding of suoli
men to attempt to excite their prejudices against their
fellow-citizens of the South—to appeal to their sec
tional feelings with a view to orrny them against the
friends of Southern Rights. Such nttempts will, we
repent, .receive from all high-minded northern
men, tlie contempt and reprehension which they
merit. '■
Here upon our own soil, wo know nopnrty, no na
tional nor sectional distinctions. We know only the
advocates and opponents of thoso principles, the
maintenance of which we conceive to be essential to
the safety and prosperity of tho South. Wc ask not
whether a man is from New-Eugland or Old England,
from Ireland or from Germany. Wo only aBk—is
he true to the constitution of the country nnd to the
rights, interests and honor of the 'South ? If it is
our misfortune to differ with him in regard to the
modes nnd policy of political action, it is no reason
why we should doubt his fidelity to the South. We
have never questioned tlie patriot'am or integrity of
those who are honestly opposed to us in the contro
versy now waging in this community. We havo
never discriminated in our remarks between Northern
and Southern men, nor between native born and
adopted citizens. Neither in praise or reproof, havo
we ever acknowledged any such lines, nnd we do
not hesitate to pronounce our strong condemnation
of the man, he he native, northern or foreign born,
who would seek to array parties on such a basis in
Georgia. Suck a man is no (rue/Wend to the. South,
and should be regarded with suspicion by thoso
whom he seeks to place in so unjustifiable, unpatriot
ic, and we may say, dangerous an attitude.
The Expulsion of FaKF.NEanoES.-in the Vir
ginia Constitutional Reform Convention last week,
Sift following resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, That the Committee on the Legislative
department of the Government be instructed to in

or her removal beyond tljp limltsofthe United States,
or for the support of such as may be authorized by
the Legislature to remain within the Commonwealth.
Itesnhcd, That the Committee on the Legislative
Department be instructed to inquire into the exp di-
ency of inserting in tho Constitution a clause provid

Letters from Harve allude to the compete
tionfor freight between (he American and Cunard

iete with the Franklin, have lowered the rate from

jgp* in the Virginia Convention to reform the Con,
atltution, on Saturday laBt, Mr. Floyd offered a res.
dution to the effect that the power should he confer
red on the Legislature, to pass a law discriminating
against all goods manufacturodln a non-slaveholding
State; or in other words, that a lgw should be pass
ed prohibiting, by refusal to grant license, tho sale of
all goods from non-slaveholding States, within tlie
Commonwealth, either at wholosaleor retail.
Mr. Floyd gave notico of his intention to urge
this resolution on tho Convention at its re-assem-
bUge.
Tables Turned—It will be seen, says the South
«rn (Vs.) Argue, from tho doings in Boston, which
wo publish iu another column, that the order of things^
Is reversed in that city, and instead of arresting aud
surrendering tugitive slaves on the demand of their
masters, that the fugitives are arresting and imprison
ing these who gd in pursuit of them. This it a no w
phase in this Controversy, and rather more than the
South bargained for. The next act in the drama
will be, that tome Southern citizens will fall a victim
for daring toissert his constitutional rights.
jgpr* A fatal affray occurred at Calhouu, in Gordon
county, on Saturday last, during a political meeting.
The difficulty occurred between Capt. Charles
Hamilton and his brother, and two young men by
the name of Johnson—sonsjof Col. Johnson of Cass
county. Both the Hamilton's and one of tins John
sons were wounded. Charles Hamilton received
three wounds—two in the baok and one in tho hand—
-which it U supposed he cannot survive. Jefferson
Johnson and the younger Hamilton were also se
verely wounded, but it is supposed will recover.
The Danvers Bank Tragedy.—From further
developments, there is not the slightest, ground to be-
lieve that young Page, who,was shot at Danvers,MaSs.,
last week, by the watchman, under the eupposltion
that ho intended to rob the bank, had any such object
in view. A countryman, who was lying in his wagon
near the bank, witnessed the whole scene, aud dentes
ihat there was any one in company with Page, or
(that any parties loft in a carriage after the shot was
fired. He says he drove his wagon off shortly after,
which the watchman doubtless took fora carriage.—
Bateman, the watchman, acknowledges that when ho
Jjfcttasw Page stop in tile front of the bank he started
to get his gun, and made a noise by striking his foot
against a coal hod. The countryman testifies that
Page suddenly tan up to the door, enquiring who
was there, shortly after which the gun was fired.—
The probability, therefore, is thnt, hearing some oho
in tho bank at thatunusual hoar,no thought thercWc-ry
robbers within, and approached the door to ascertain
the fact. The watchman evidently was very hasty
in firing^ ,
Amendment of the Fugitive Slave BUI
The abolition correspondent of the .iY. Y. Tribune,
writing from Baltimore, under date of 3dinst., says :
"The Fugitive Slave law lias had tho effect to in
crease tho value of slaves in this State,in consequence
of the greater apparent security of that kind of pro
perty. This security is, however, merely ideal, as
will be found neit spring. Slaves do not abscond
to any great extent in the tall or winter, preferring to
travel either in the spring or summer. A statement
has already been made through the Telegraph that a
number ot persons in this State are preparing the
necessary papers to arrest and identfiy their property
at the North. Some few havo done so, it is true, but
the great majority of persons who have lost slaves
have as yet taken no action to recover them. It is
deBired at the South, and will bo urged in Congress
this winter, to amend the Fugitive Slave law by a-
dopting the amendment oi last Bpring,(which was then
lost) to remunerate from the public treasury tho
owners of such sluves who may fail to obtain them
by due process, after they may have iudentlfled
their property."
The question in Congress this winter, will not be
whether the Fugitive 31ave Law shall be enforced or
repealed. Out of the Southern delegations, the Bill, as
it exists, will have no friends, and the question will
be whether to strike it from tho statute books
entirely,or to so modify and change its character as to
make if acceptable to the Northern people. Tlie
tniddlb ground party in Congress—the sappers and
miners of that body, who think it wiser to attempt
the subjugation ot the South and the distruction of
our institutions by alow and cautious approaches—
will be very apt to attempt to curry the amendment,
alluded to by the writer, ns a Union Compromise
measure (!) in favor of which they will appeal to tha
conservatism (?) of tho South. The remuneration
clause will be offered as a bribe to the border South
ern States, and should it be successful,. we will have
the extreme gratification of seeing the General Gov
ernment converted into a general emancipation or
ganization, while we of the South will be compelled
to bear our portion of the burthen of Its ph ilanthro-
pie operations—in other words, our people would be
forced to pay for the emaucipution of their own slaves
to gratify the abolition prejudices of thepooplo of tho
free States.
This measure was promptly denounced by Sonator
Berrien, last winter, and it is greatly to be hoped
thnt it will be patriotically and determinedly resist-
ed by the men of tho South, should it again be at
tempted. ,
Another riot occurred in Baltimore on Mon -

of ruflians belonging to some of the rival fire
organizations. The name of the young man who was
killed was James McMichakl. He had nothing to
do witli the affray, and was returning home from a
night-school when be was shot. The Sun says:
From the evidence before the jury it appears that
while this young man and several others were stand
ing on the corner, a party of six or eight persons
came up Hanover street, nil armed with muskets.
Wheu on the opposite corner one of them remarked,
“crack your whips," when they alt cocked their

This is a dreadful state of things to exist in one of

Philadelphia Theatricals.—A Philadelphia
letter says:—
Last evening, at the Walnut street Theatre, the
tragedy of Romeo was converted iuto a farce by the
heroine falling fiat while attempting to pick up her
hankerchief, and was carried from the stage by
Mamiger Richinga. Previous to this she interrupted
the Manager's apology to tho audience, by declaring
him to be no gentleman, and would not leave the
stage, determined to brazen it out. Miss Cushman a
performance of Romeo was excellent, though much
marred by the necessity of prompting Juliet. The

Ganger substituted.

Bath Moving fob the Fugitive—A crowded

on the Fugitive Slave Law, without respect to par
ty. Speeches were made by D. C. Magoun, a lead
ing Whig, Jeremiah Ellsworth, a leading Democrat
oi the county, by Rev Mr. Brooks, (the greatest
speech ever made iu Maine,) and Dr. Nourae, former
Collector, all denouncing the lnw in the severest
terms, and going for its unconditional repeal. This
is well for a town having more than a million invest

$50,000, stud tlie South might burn his ships before
he would assent to such an inhuman law.
Colored People in Indiana—In tlie Indiana
Constitutional Convention the committee have re
