Dorr to his rights vras defeated In the Rhode Island Senate, on tho 1st of the present month, by a large majority. G*N. SCOTT.—The Whigs of Michigan, nt their re- cont State Convention, adopted resolutions in favor of Major General Windfeld Scott as the Whig can didate for President In tha canvass of 1852. KgF 1 It Is said that In case the Democrats have themsjority in the legislature of New-York, John VanBuren will be sent to the U. S. Senate in the place of Mr. Dickinson, who has had the hardihood 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 quire into the expediency of providing that no hereafter to be emancipated, shall be entitled 60 “J® or her freedom, unless the person «o . emflikiimatuig such slave or slaves shall first make provision for hiH 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 ing that no deed or will emancipating a slave or slaves, shall be admitted to record In any court in tliia commonwealth, so tar as It does emancipate such slnvn or elnves.

Letters from Harve allude to the compete tionfor freight between (he American and Cunard steamers. The agents of the latter vessels, to com- iete with the Franklin, have lowered the rate from lavre to New-York, via Liverpool, to $20 per ton. The former'rate was $40.

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 - Special Notices.

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 guns and deliberately fired into the group.

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.
