Ah Invitation Answered.
Melancholly indeed would be our condtlon, 11
the invitation which lias been extended to us by
tho Republican, to "come over to Mr. Fillmore, ? *
was our only escape trotn the difllculties of our
position. •• Doleful," ludecd, would the Repub
lican lie entitled to call our editorial, if it should
have wound up with such a conclusion. We have
beard of a good many extraordinary tilings in
this world. We have seen the adventurous youth
quit the comforts of home and family for the
hardships of the soldier's or the sailor's life.
We have seen the ndvoente take the weak side
"f a case. We have heard of u preacher who
deserted a fat living for a poor one; hut wc
have yet to see or hear of the politician (suppos
ing all things to ho equal and speaking as of a
mere question of expediency,) who has ever
deserted a party, strong in all tho elements of
power and success, for one hopelessly in decay.
This would he a degree of sincerity which it
has never been our good fortune to experience.
But suppose we lmd every desire to ho of a
mind with tho Republican, would it he required
of us to take the Platform unou which Mr. Fill
more Is to run ? There, has been a singular sil
ence upon this subject in onr neighbor; from
the fact, however, of having discovered a hidden
treasure in the 7th article of the Platform a
tew days ago, we suppose it U to redeem the
whole. We wish to know from the Republican,
More we proceed further in the discussion,
whether it tenders us Mr. Fillmore ns a mnu
alone, or ns the representative of a party which
is to rule the destinies of this couutry. To the
tirst we reply at once, that we would take no
mau on the face of the earth without being the
exponent of principles; nml viewing the matter
again as a matter of expediency, must he well
convinced that to make any candidate available
merely upon personal grounds, he must have
military renown.
Appointmenlt to Oiei by Fillmore and *
Pierce. .
The Washington Sentinel, one of The cen
tral Democratic organs rays:
It unli require a new Administration to turn
out the Fi'tetoiler* from office. Ihe present
does not dare to do 11
Mr FtUmore la exactly the man, the Sentinel
calls for. Ho turned out the Freeaoilers, when
he was in ofllco before, and he has no better
reason to like them for spitting their foul ca
lumnies at him ever since. Mr. Fillmore turn
ed them out, and Mr. Pierce turned them In
—now let’s turn Mr. Pierce out and Mr. Fill*
more In.—Savannah Republican.
If opposition to the Kanna Nebraska bill
constitute a northern man a free soller, as it
practically does, we would not fear to wager
our existence that nine tenths of the men
whom Fillmore put into office, on the other side
ofthe.Potomac, are freeaoilers. And should he
os President (uot a probable caso)be called
upon to dlscliarge the Northern Democrats
now In office, uext March, their places will
remain vacant if he seeks for successors, only
nniong such of his friends ns support
that great measure of constitutional justice.
But a word further—as to the Free Boilers
Mr. FlUmorc turned ou( "when in office beforo.”
Who put thoso Free Boilers i« f Why, unques
tionably, Ueueral Taylor and his advisers, meu
whom the Republican aided in placing in pow
er. When Gen. Taylor's administration was In*
augurated, it mado nearly u clean sweep urnong
the office holders. If, then, Fillmore, ou the
death of Taylor, found the offices in the hands
of men so intensely free-sollish, that even tho
author of tho " Erie Letter" had to dismiss them,
it strikes us that the less the Republican says on
the subject the better.
But quenj—did Mr. Fillmore ever turn n free
soller out of office merely became he teas a Free
Sailer !
That, as the rival and political enemy of
Seward (though both members of the same
party.) he discharged Free Boilers who to pro
mote Seward's interests were making] war upon
Fill more's administration, is quite certain. But
tlmt he ever discharged a Free Soller merely
for being a Free Soller, we apprehend the Re’
publican would find it very difficult to prove.
.Vow we confess to a high respect for Mr.
Fillmore as a gentleman—much higher it seem-»
than the Republican is capable of feeling for
any prominent Democrat while in full fcllour
ship until his party—yet our regard for the gw*
tleman should uot blind us to the false principles
of the jtoliliciun. Wc dare not shut our eyes
to the fact that a* the South count* soundness
hols far from being sound on tho slavery quos
tion. He stauds much below the elevated position
of Phrce and Douglas and other leading North*
ern Democrat*.
We speak not of his past. We care not to
open its dark record. Wc look alone to the
present—to his position as defined within the
tost few weeks by his eonlldential friend and
former cabinet minister—Hon. .1. I*. Kennedy,
of Baltimore. In a letter in reference to Mr.
Fillmore's acceptance, Mr. K. writes ns follows»
dating his letter May 8.1850 :
I know, uiul ho do you. with what profound re
gret Mr Fillmore noted the actiou or the present

Opposed to that great con&titutiouul measure
Mr. Fillmore was indebted for his seat iu the J Q f justice to the South—the repeal of the Mis-
Vice-Presidential chair to the hrazeu cm»h or j MUrl Cmupromim, und in foyor or it* restore-

horse, who did such excellent service to ids
ered to his fathers; hut were hcalivo, lie would
refuse to do service in so unwarlike a cause. Mr.
Fillmore could not have so much as the heating of
a tin pan to lay claim to,being nothing hut a plain
civilian. Admitting him to lie the most
estimable gentleman, and one who is cal
culated to grace society by the exercise of every
virtue; admitting, for the sake of argument,
that his administration was one display
ing considerable capacity and Integrity—we
would ask, who was his chief adviser, and
where is he? Where is tho mighty Webster?
Who will take his place ? Will he he allowed
to select from the conservative men of the coiin-
try generally,or will he he guided by the dictates
of party? Wo do not think that the American
party 1ms been ever distinguished for electing
to office those who have differed in opinion, and

The stake for which the South is playing is an

voice will counterbalance tho voice of New

don'. Letter—BnRll.lt Comment..
Wo cannot help thinking that there ha. been
an extraordinary effort, In connection with
Lord Clarendon's late reply to Hr. Uarey, to
creole lit our couatry a baity jiublio •enument
favorable to the Uritbh aide or the recmltment
controversy, lt la scarcely a matter of doubt
that a number of coulee of the English Blue
Book containing Lord Clarendon’a reply wia In
Washington, and in tho hands of patties as
sumed to hare British sympathies on the ques
tion, before tho doooments were In pomisslon
or onr government. It la certain that then has
been an unusual cage mere manifested In bring
ing this reply before the pubi c, accompanied
with comments well calculated to make the Im-
dresalon that the British government, If It has
uot satisfactorily met Hr. Uarcy’a arguments,
has, nt least, satisfactorily atoned lor the unin
tentional violation of our laws and sovereign
rights.
Wo will not attribute this promptness, not to
say haste, in responding to tho paciffo and con
ciliatory tono which la assumed to bo so satisfac
tory to nn actual sympathy with the British Gov
ernment; hut we will say that, whilst it may
arise from extramo sensitiveness as to the fears
of a war with Great Britain, it is also well calcu
lated to conflrm that government in the erroneous
impression that tho sentiments of the American
pecplo aro not in unison with thoso of tho admin
istration on tho recruitment dlllieulty. It Is not to
be disguised that the opinion prevails extensively
in England, produced by giving too much im
portance to certain well known journals in our
own couutry In opposition to tho administra
tion, that the controversy on the enlistment
question has been resorted to by the administra
tion for political purposes, and with n view to
the presidential succession. Hence It Is notsur-
prlslug If there should he nearly as much anxi
ety felt In England as to tho action of onr se
veral nominating conventions for the presiden
cy ns in our own country. Nor would it be u
matter of surprise If Lord Clarendon s reply
to Mr. Mhrey was written under the errone
ous impression alluded to, and with the expecta
tion that it might exert some influence on the
nominating canventlons aoon to assemble at
Cincinnati, Philadelphia, and New York. Nor
would It be extraordinary If tho eagerness to
create premature impressions ou the public
mind In our own country by the hasty com
ments an Irani Clarendon’s reply, to which wc
have referred, should have arisen in some de
gree from n hope tlmt the results of the conven
tions named might Ira affected hy the impres
sion that the administration had unnecessarily
protracted the enlistment controversy. But,
without pursuing this train of reflections further,
wc prefer toexhlbit a most remarkable contrast
betwixt the comments of those American Jonr-
nela which have so promptly insisted on ac
cepting Irani Clarendon’s reply as satisfactory,
and two leading Loudon journals which we have
just received by the last steamer. The reader
will be struck with tho liberality and Indepen
dence with which the London Homing Star and
Telegraph espouse the cause of troth and na
tional honor, as involved in the recruitment con
troversy i
^ [rrom the I/railun Moraine Star, May 6 ]
The counsel learned in the law who practise
at the Middlesex sessions have a trick which
passes current In that court, aud serves instead
of a case fur tho defence. When they hare
eotlilng better to say for a prisoner, they plead
his good character, and tranneo that of the wit
nesses against him. Prom tho earliest days ot
his infancy they declare that lie Ima been re
markably distinguished for his Integrity and
honesty; while, on the other side, they can
only recognize rogues by birth, adoption, und
profession, whoso oaths aro not to be believed
on any uccasion whatsoever, and, least of all, in
opposition to the complete denial of so respect
able a person as tllc prisoner at the bar.
The pica set up by Lord Clarendon on lrabalf
of Mr, Crompton Is precisely the plea of the
Middlesex sessions. All Lord Clarendon can
say for Mr.Crampton is, that the British am-
liassador is” so very” respectable, and tlmt the
witneaws against him are “ so very” unworthy
of heller. ” Ktrobel mid Hertz," the noble lord
snys, “ ore unworthy of credit.”
It is lmpossibe for her Mqlcsty’s government
to set the assertions of such meu ns these
against tho declarations of Mr. Crampton—a
man of unquestionable honor. Now. if the
assistant judge at tbe Middlesex sessions came
to sum up this defence in the cose of a pick
(racket, lie would|;irobably use some such lan
guage as the following: Gentlemen of thojuiy,
von huve heard Irom tho leurued counsel Ibr
the defence, that the prisoner nt Aha ha r. up tc
tbe presentUime, lies horn a character for un
qucslkmublc£bonor, aud he has striven tu show
you that the witnesses against him aro men on
whose veracity you cannot rely. The relative
credibility of the parties is of course exclu
sively for your decisiuli. All I can say Is, that
there arc, on this occasion, two witnesses
agalust the defendant, who nro not shown to
ho connected, and who agree la their testi
mony ; and, as regards one of them, at any
rate, nothing whatever bus heenadducedjigalugt
him.”
The Jury In the U. S. who were charged
somewhat to this cflbct, did credit the testi
mony uf Ktrobel and Hertz confirmed, na it
was, by that of other witnesses. It was niter a
fair and full review of all the facta that they
found a verdict of guilty against the parties
who acted under the instructions of the British
minister. To set up in theee days,, eight
months after the verdict has been passed, a
case of perjury against the witnesses for the
proseentiun, is a sort of after-thought which
wc are confident would have no weight with
Lord Clarendon's colleague at the Home (Mice
If a men's life depended on It.
Let us take tlmt position. Suppose a man
was convicted aud seutouccd to death; suppose
Sir George Grey was importuned tu respite 1dm
on the ground that he was so very respectable
and tlmt the witnesses against him were un-
worthyof belief: every body knows what Sir
George Grey would do. In a few hours the ap
plicant* would receive answer from Mr. Wau-
dlngton, dated from the Home Office, "April
ilO,” informing them that the Secretary ofStuto
“saw no reason, In the lace of tho verdict, and
lu the absence of any recommendation from tbe
judge, to question the propriety of the judgment
that was passed.” Wc should, therefore, be told
that tbe law must tuko its course; and, probably,
on this very Monday morning, tho slierlflk of
London and tbocliapluinof Newgate would lie
assisting Jack-Uetcli, under tbe orders of Sir
George Grey, in the despatch of the miserable
culprit.
But, in dealing with nations, the government
pursue a different course from that which they
take with regard to iudividuals. Their policy
iu the one case is nil on tile sido of execution ;
iu the other, it is all on' the side of acquittal-
One cannot but usk the meaning of this. Is
there anything in the back-ground? Had Mr.
Crumpton any "privutc” instructions wliichdo
not appear upon the face of the eiglity-Ihur de
spatches published by the government? The
facts of tiio case arc so very rcinarkahlo tliut
one is obliged to conclude In the nflirmntive.
"On tho breaking oat of the war,” says Irani
C'luroudon, “the British government was in
formed tliut ninny persons miilrnl within tlw
t/nitrd Stair* were desirous of entering the
military service of < Irent Britain.” “They took
steps to avail themselves of this disposition.”
"It was soon seen tlmt some persons might do
tilings nt variunco with the laws of the united
States.” "Being desirous of shuwiug their re
spect for these laws, the government determin
ed Pi give up the further prosecution of thu ar
rangementsand acordingly tho enlistments
were stopped, though not until alter the mis
chief was done.
The despatch stopping the enlistment was
sent out P> C'uuada ou .lime 'll. On July I! n
letter was received nt tho Foreign Oflico, from
Mr. Buehnnan, complaining tliut "lira neutrali
ty law of tho UniPul HPiles had tieen violated.”
Irani Clarendon replied on July IU, expressing
"the regret of her Majesty's Government if any
law of the United Hiatus bad Iraeri In uny way
Infringed hy any personsucting with or without
authority.'' A nd yet it la after tills, after the ere

Tue Slavery Discussion.—It will he
perceived that the protracted discussion in
tho New School General Assembly on tbe
subject of slavery has terminated, though
without any practical result, aside from
the decision to print both tho majority
and minority reports relative to the con
stitutional power of the Assembly over
tho subject, more particularly as regards
tho discipline of slaveholders und slave
holding churches. While the debate
throughout was characterized by a Chris
tian spirit, there was evidently a wide
diversity of opinion und strong emotion
was excited. In the struggle between
passion and judgment men laughed through
their tears. The power of fixed christiun
principal was happily illustrated.—
Throughout the discussion a disposition
wus shown, on the part of leading minds,
lo nvoid the extremes of fanaticism and
adhere to the old conservative paths;
wisdom und mordcratiou prevailed.—
Tho result will be to harmonize und con
solidate rather tlion to nlionntc and dis
sever. Tho Assembly may be regarded
ns possessing greater claim to confidence
ami respect.—A*. V. Journal of Com.
