Fugitive Slave Lawr inoperative. By the return of our fellow-townsman, VV. H. Hcgiies, Esq., we have a testimonial, from a gentleman whose veracity is above impeach ment, of the beautiful Government farce now being acted upon the Northern stage. Mr. Fit.* more has wisely consented to be suneshifter for his Northern brethren, and some of those who have to pay the piper really think it a treat to read such a letter as was written by the Pres ident's Secretary to Dr Collins. For our part, we sincerely think that the patience and com mon sense of Southern people have become tor pid if they quietly succumb to this climax of injury, offered as a palliation for the euormities committed by the Bostonians, and enumerated at length in MB- HUGHES’ STATEMENT. I arrived in Boston on Saturday, the 19th of October, and kept concealed in my room, until Monday the 21st. During this time, I ascertain, ed that Bill and Ellen had not left Boston as had been reported I then called to see Mr. Shewers, (an Attorney to whom I had a letter from Mr. Fay, of Savannah ) He was absent from town and I did not see him. On the next day I called on Judge Levi Woodbury, and sta ted that I wanted a warrant for the arrest of two fugitive slaves. He stated that he was not the propsr person to issue it. I asked him to tell me who was the proper person to issue such war rants. He stated, we would recommend me to goto Mr. Lunt, U. S. District Attorney. I call' ed on Mr. Lunt, who stated that he had agreed to lake a case of this kind before, and that it was an unpleasant business and created a great deal of excitement, and he would not take another case of the kind. lam inclined to think this statement of Mr Lunt a mere pretext to evade responsibility. I was unable to learn that there was any such case ever in existence. I asked him to inform me who was the proper person to apply to. He recommended me to Mr. Benjamin F. Hallett, U. S Commissioner. IcalledatMr. H's office and he was not at home. I then called at 11 o'clock at night, at his residence and stated to him my business, and asked him for a warrant—saying that if I could get a warrant I could have the negroes arrested. He said the lam did not authorize a warrant to be issued that it was my duty to go and arrest the negro without a warrant and bring him before him. I stated to him that this was requiring an impos sibility under the state of things, and that that was not my construction of the law, and showed him a copy of the law. After looking at the law, he said he would consider of it, and give me an answer next morning at 9 o’clock. I applied next day at 9 o'clock. He then slated he had considered of it, and that it was not his business to advise me what course to lake. But if I would make out my charges in a legal form and come before him lie would hear me. I then went to Mr. Thayer (a merchant, to whom I had a letter,) I told Mr. Thayer I wanted an Attorney. He got a friend who went to see Mr. Selli J. Thomas, an attor ney, who agjeed to take charge ofitie case. Mr. Thomas was engaged and called on Judge Sprague for a warrant. This Judge equivocated and shullled like the others had done. He then called on Mr.Curtis, a United States’ Commissioner. He wanted time like the others, to consider, and requested us to call at 4 o’clock, P. M. which we did, and he then stated that they had agreed to have a meeting of the six Commissioners and the two Judges, namely Woodbury aft'd Sprague, that night. They held that meeting and decided that the Judges slionld hear my complaint next morning in Chambers. 1 was then required to go into Court and make my complaint, when they ordered the warrnnt to he issued in open Court, which the Clerk did. By this time it was known all over Boston, that the warrant was issued, and who for, and who applied for it About the time the warrant was issued, a man, apparently of respectability and influence, was on a dry goods box speaking to (he crowd—advising the negroes and their friends to arm themselves with Bowie knives, pistols and dirks, and resist the law onto death that if it was a law of the United States, it was in direct violation of the law of God, and might to he resisted at all hazards, and advised them to shoot down all slave catchers from the South The warrant was then planed in the Marshal 's hands—l told him I was ready to go and point out the negroes to him. lie said that tlirje was a question whether he could break the door op Bill’s shop, where he understood he was, locked up. He took the balance of that day to settle that question. I called next morning and told him 1 was again ready to go. lie then said it was reported that Hill, (whom he called Mr. Crafts,) had left town, and he had a man on the look out, and we must wait for him to report.— I also had a man on llio same business. I call, cd on the Marshal again in the afternoon. He said his man reported that Rill was not there. 1 then stated that my man reported that Bill was there. He said my man was mistaken, for his roan was reliable and conld not be mistaken. The next day my Attorney went to see the Marshal, who stated to him that he was ready to go with ma alone. I immediately went to him and prnpnsed to proceed at once. He then said it was a difficult matter, and he would have to get a large force, some twenty or thirty men.— He had made this same excuse before. At din ner time, this day, my eighth day in Boston, Mr. Knight and myself were both arrested, under a bail writ in the penalty off 10,000 for slandering Crafts, alledging that we had charged him with stealing his body and clothes. This consumed the balance of this day. On the Monday following,we were both again arrested under bail ofs|o,ooo each, for damag ing “one William Crafts’’ in his business. The excitement kept increasing. We were then car tied to the Sheriff's office. By the time we gave bond, the sidewalks were crowded with Abolitionists, negroes. &c. The account given °f the carriage scene from the Sheriff's office, as given by the Chronotypc, Daily Mail, Pos t and Journal of that city, is correct. We then 'vent to the Hotel to tea. About tea time, we "or* both again arrested for slendering Ellen r ’af«, and held to hail fw s2o,r>oft each. W hen arrested the Sheriff told me I must go with him to his office and give nbod—l told him I could give bond, at my Hotel by sending for my securities—that iff wentto his office it would col. lent the ittob again,arid that they had already in tuited me ns much as I could bear,and 1 wanted to avoid n recurrence of similar contact. The Sheriff however, still persisted afid required me to go. \Ve started but soon met itiy lawyer,who said that one of my seeurites wag on his way, and told the Sheriff that we should not go to his office, as the bond could be given sooner by not going. The Bond was then given for $20,000. The next day, I learned that the mob had col lected the night before ut the Sheriff's office, as I had suppossed, and that among other things said and done there,while they were on the look out for me, a negro was there on horse*back charg ing and swearing,that he would be the first man to shoot Hughes when he made bis appearance. On the same day, I went to seethe Marshal if he had got futher information. He said lie had not- My attorney then advised me to goto N. York for a few days, for the purpose ofallaying the ex. citement, which had become too furious be thought to admit any success I prepared to leave that evening, which becoming public, a large crowd collected at my hotel for the purpose of insulting me. I therefore concluded not to go that evening. Before 6 o’clock next morning, when 1 expected to leave, they were around the house agatn in great numbers, with the Rev. Theodore Parker at their head, knocking for admittance at my door. 1 admitted Mr. Parker He said he had come to give me a piece of friend, ly advice—that he had kept the mob off of me for two days, and was afraid he could not do it any longer. I told him that I understood he was a minister of the gospel and a great advocate of morals—in favor of people's obeying the laws— but was sorry to find myself mistaken, and want ed him to leave—that I was nut going to leave under any such threats, and that 1 was deter mined not logo then, the crowd dispersed short* ly afterwards, and after transacting some busi* ness, I left at 2 o'clock, P. M. for New York. After being in New York for several days, 1 learned that Bill and Ellen had positively left for England. There were five warrants (besides the cases named) issued against me, all for the purpose of harrusiug me and driving me away.—One for “smoking in the streets”—one “for swearing in the streets”—(which was not the fact,) —on e “for carrying concealed weapons”—one for “driving fast through the streets”—and another “for passing Cambridge Bridge without paying toll,” (which was not true ) So far as 1 had any dealings with those who thus endeavored to obstruct the law and harras me, or had a chance of ascertaining their posi tion, 1 would say, that they were of the highest standing, socially and politically in the conimu* nity. As an instance, Francis Jackson who re fused to take Knight's hand, was a candidate for Congress ; Mr. Charles Sumner one of the U.S Commissioners; Rev. Theodore Parker; Mr' List an eminent lawer; Dr. Hanson ; Rev. Dr. Channing; Mr Charles Bowdige and others) who interested themselves in preventing us from arresting Crafts are all abolitionists. As to the friends we found in Boston, 1 found Mr. Hamil ton Willis (a broker) a true friend and feel un der obligations to him. There were also Mr Thayer; Mr. Thomas my attorney ; Mr. Patrick Riley, one of the Deputy Marshals; Mr. D Draper; Mr. Freeman a Deputy Sheriff; the Proprietors of the United States Hotel, their Clerks and Servants, and Mr. Ladd. To all these gentlemen, 1 am under great obligations for their kindness. In refcrrence to the abolition sentiment in Boston, I would state this circumstance. Al 1 the lime the excitement was going on with me, there was no protection of the city authorities offered me, and none turned out in my favor.— But when George Thompson, the English abo lition Lecturer w as expected and a meeting was announced to receive him, it was rumored that a mob might assemble on his reception, and the Mayor instantly ordered out the city officers to attend suppress any mob —showing thatthe city authorities were disposed to give prelection to an abolitionist, which they had withheld from me while engaged in my lawful business; and my opinion is, if we had succeeded in arresting the negroes, that they would have been rescued by the citizens. In conclusion—to give a full history of my visit toßoston would occupy too much lime and patience. I will therefore, conclude by saying that; f went to Boston as an agent to execute a fawful trust, thinking I should be protected and assisted by the laws of my country But on the contrary, from the fiist, the laws of the country, instead of proving a proterlion,were made an en gine of cruelly, oppression, injustice and abuse ; so that my life was constantly endangered ; and this wiihout the first offer ofassistancefrom Gov ernment, national, Slate or city. 1 feci that every man who has a Southern heart in his bosom, and would maintain the honor of his country, should sustain the Southern ltighl ß cause, by every Constitutional measure, until our rights are acknowledged and justice obtain ed. WILLIS H. HUGHES. Macok, Nov. 21st, 1850. Firf.s.—A fire occurred in Charleston on th e morning of the 19th inst., which destroyed scv. eral buildings and a quantity of machinery. On the 12th inst. property to the amount of $30,- 000 was destroyed by fire in Albany, Ga. [for the soothers tribune] Let Georgia .Hove. The great trill of the Southern people, which has been so long agitated and undetermined by conflicting emotions, has at length began to as sume definite and determinate form—and from amidst these convulsive elements of agitation the light us truth has shown to the people the absolute necessity of some positive demonstra tion to the North of a determined opposition to further aggressions upon ottr right* and liberties, to which they are urged by political and famti- cal insanity. The people have at length openfed their eyes to the hollow, shallow and unpatriotic fcry of submission or disunion os the only alter natives—they perceive it is the banner cry of many heterogeneous elements in the same ranks —affiliated by accidental circumstances, and of such dissimilar affinities that even temporary success cannot give them adhesiveness. They find political speculators, whose desire for self aggrandizement Would induce them to sell their souls, their friends, their country and their God toobtain success—Again they find many who honestly believe there is no resistance short of disunion, atid prefer submission under existing conditions, because ofgreat aversion to all dis urbing causes—among these we have many who entertain for their country a deep and abiding love, and who, if they could see the necessity for action would be foremost in the call,—as an ex cuse we allow them that honest difference of opinion which will obtain, and on the most un ■mportant matters, —but the time is near at hand when will awake those who have been deluded, as well as those who have taken counsel of their fears—And again there are those who have taken advantage of the leadership of some Southern politicians, are thus enabled to indulge their real sentiments and nre induced to give aid, comfort and countenance to the enemy. Many of those who honestly believe there is no alternative save disunion, have only to be convinced that the assertion is a mere political artifice to blind the masses, and they will immediately array themselves on the side of their country and of Southern rights. There is now plainly perceptible, a policy which like a great spirit, is gradually yet rapidly spreading itselfover the face of the country, and every day brings intelligence from every quarter of the Southern States, that the doctrine of non intercourse in trade will soon bn universally adopted in the South, and that it only now needs unity of action, to make it at once as potent as the lever of Archimides. No man who is not wilfully blind, can shut his eyes to the truth, that it has even now made a deep and abiding improssion upon some of the great commercial cities of the North—and her merchants so long r enowned for sagacious and deep-sighted knowl edge in mercantile matters have already seen the fearfully ruinous consequences which the policy of non-intercourse would have upon their trade. And it has by their own declarations, been the cause of the first demonstrations in behalf of the South, which the North lias ever made, and this by the men who at the same time declared their invincible ablisrrenen of the laws which call forth this necessity. You have al ready been told by tlioso (who for commercial and political sagacity are second to none in the Government,) if the South should carry out this policy, that grass would grow in the streets of New York, and that thousands and thousands within the tolling of a single bell would be turn ed out to starvation and ruin. The light is be fore and around us, and he is blind indeed who will not see. Eet us form Associations in every county in the Stale, and in every State in the South, and in hut a short time we will form a bond of Union, which will he absolutely irresisti. ble. This policy hut a short time since, was looked upon as untenable indeed, and passing strange, has now forced itself upon the attention of the people by its inherent excellence until it has become the grand and prominent feature to nrrest Northern aggression. And it really seems to me any one having the principles of Southern rights nt heart, could not well refuse its advocacy particularly when no other alternative presents itself but submission. We should then not only advocate voluntary non-intercourse, but should assert, bind and enforce it, by all constitutional legislative enactments. This matter should he well deliberated upon by the Convention. Let the Convention meet and declare the State R ights sovereignty ofGeorgia to be a foundation stone on which all their deliberations shall rest—let them recommend to the Legislature to impose a discrimination tax upon all Northern goods brought into the State—let the tax bo so high as either to exclude entirely or greatly to cripple their profits and trade of Northern interests—the latter would be besl at present, and should re main ill f.irco as long as necessary to effect ou r object. Let the Convention recommend also the imposition of a tax upon all goods brought in or conveyed away in a Northern vessel—Let jtrecomuiend such legislation as will develope rapidly and surely our internal resources—and toencourago home manufactures by relieving invested capital from all taxation for a series of years—Letthem offer a bounty on different kinds of produce and premiums on different kinds of manufactured articles—Let them recommend to t be Legislature to appoint Commissioners and empower them properly to effect immediate and direct trade between our Southern ports and Europa. This is the proper general policy, and would effect in weeks what armies could not accomplish in years. Towards all those States which refuse to de liver up our fugitive slaves, or obstruct the law, let the State authorize retaliatory measures—Let them exelude the goods of such States entirely, seize on all their vessels coming into our ports, audsell them and cargo to the satisfaction of all justly established demands for fugitive slaves— stop the collection of all debts due those States by our citizens, and by all and every lawful en actment thus paralyze their trade and interests- If any one should say, these last measures which you call retaliatory , are unlawful, I reply so is resisting the Fugitive Slave law, and the mobbingof our citizens, who seek to regain their rightful property by lawful means. If you say they are revolutionary and will bring an army upon us, l reply you arc neither ready nor willing to march on Massachusetts in defence of your property —Are you willing to allow them more courage, manliness and independence than yourselves—if so, you have well selected the banner of Submission. Let this system of non-inttrcoiir*e be adopted by Georgia and invite our sister Southern States in Convention, or otherwise to unite in this policy and the South will not only be able to resist all fuluro aggressions, but she will soon bloom with prosperity, save her honor and pre serve this Union. ALPHA [FOR ttfx SOUTHERN - TRIBUNE.] The Crisis, Will the politicians at Washington, lias pass ed fnr the present, and the divisions and huck steriig propensities of some of the Southern Deltgates for office and distinction, have despoil ed tie South of her Territorial fights, deprived her if her equality and reduced Iter to a minori ty And now comes on the crisis in Georgia, between those Imckstering politicians, and the peoale. They, the politicians knowing what they would have to meet, set their strikers in motion long ago, who influencing those who have not the firmness or the faithfulness to look full in the face the condition of the country and the tendency of the government, under its pre sent auspices, have marshalled themselves in opposition to those of the people who remon strated against the Clay Compromise, and to the able,manly, patriotic Senator J.M. Berries, and his followers, who faithful to their trusts, had nobly batt'ed in Congress for the rights of the South. Now comes the struggle, fellow citizens, let them not deceive you by the false issue of Union and Disunion. You arc contend ing with the politicians of the present day, who nsvermeet the issue fairly ; but always seek to take a position which they think public opinion wlil favor. All this time they try to make the people believe that those who have risen up in defence ofSoiithern rights against the encroach, incuts of the Clay compromise are seeking a dissolution of the Union, and this when there has not been passed by any meeting of the people a single Resolution in favor of Secession or Dis union. The only palliation or excuse for such conduct is, that some more zealous than prudent patriots have given way to their indignant feel ings and expressed themselves in favor of acces sion or a dissolution of the Union as the only efficient remedy against the aggressions of the North. But this is in reality no good excuso for such conduct, because no assemblage of the people or the Southern Rights party, have adopt. ed such a Resolution or acted upon the sugges tion. It was the opinion of individuals, and it still remain* but the opinion of individuals.— The people first united in opposition to the Clay Compromise and the aggressions of the North, which those who now cry Disunion were aid ing at the beck of the politicians at to pass through Congress. From tiiis, fellow citizens, which you must acknowledge to be the truth, you will perceive that the issue to be decided by your votes is not Union or Disunion; but in fact whether you will encourage Northern aggression or oppose it and seek to protect your country, your property, your homes and your families from ruin and inferiority, and may be, from desolation. Will you tamely submit to such a fate, when by the Union of the South the Constitution can be preserved in its purity ; or if our Northern brethren will not listen to our united voices, but shall he determined to press on in their tnad career, and try to subject us to their unjust and unrighteous will, regardless of their honor and the stipulations of the Constitu tion, and will force you to an independent posi tion among the nations of the earth, then you will say let it come, if we cannot be allowed our rights in the Union, but not before. This Is no doubt the position of every man who has ex pressed an opinion in favor ofdisuriion, and he has no doubt too been driven to it by seeing some of his fellow citizens, so duped by the po liticians, and led to support that which he con siders destructive to the honor, to the equality, and to the safety of his country. Asyetthedis unionists, if there are in reality and truly any, stand alone. The Southern Rights party, the men, who, when the Clay compromise men combined tu aid the Compromise through Congress anu make i ( the law of the country, united and opposed it, expressing at the same time a willingness to ac cept the Missouri line to the .Pacific ns a settle, merit, are the only men who are united in party and they cannot be disutiionists, for they have offered, for the sake of peace and union, to ac cept less than their rights. The fact, under the present circumstances is, that the Clay compro mise party is, if there is any disunion party, the Disunion party, at was stated at the first of this controversy —because they advocate a compro mise, which is aggressive upon the rights of the South and the priuciplcs of the Constitution.— The Constitution was a compromise—a bargain between two parties, the North and the South— the terms, principles and rights of that bargain bound both parties, and neither party has the right to change, or make any infraction of the terms ; and the principles of the Constitution, the bargain, were sufficient to sottle any difficul' ty that might arise—Equality and justice were the foundation principles and the rule for the settlement of every difficulty ; therefore those who advocate a different course of settlement are (lie Disunionists, and the Clay compromise men banded themselves together to force a different mode of settlement, therefore no matter what ground they may lake, so long as it is not in accordance with the principles of the Constitu tion, they are the Disunionists. - he Constitution was not made, to bear upon words, but upon tho action of men and sections of the country towards each other, and for the rule of action for the Government. It was a compromise, and being a compromise, no addi tional compromise could bo made without the consent of all the parties or ratified by three fourths. The South has been shut out of the Territo ries and there is neither justice nor equality in that ; nor lias three-fourths of the Union sanc tioned it—The principle of emancipation, too, has been recognized by Congress, and may be enforced under certain circumstances, by the Slave Trade Bill in the District of Columbia.— i Once established, it becomes precedent ; and who can say where it will stop, while such poli. 1 ticians as those of the present day, rule the country,and while lawyers and not statesmen ar6 the interpneters of the Constitution, and j where parties are so lost to principle and so ready to back what n partisan may do. Arise my countrymen, and by your votes put | down this misconstruction of the principles of j the Government, or corruption if it be. Your j salvation depends upon your ability to restore puiitv to the Government, and that the South can, if all will only unite ; fnr it is but the crca* ' ture of tbe people’s creation. Strike now pro perly and boldly by your votes and you will re generate the Government. Tbe North is de pendent upon you for prosperity and If she is fool enough not to yield, and will proceed to aggress ; when the time and the circumstances may come, which shall render it necessary for the South to lake her position as an independent nation, she can with a certainty oftlie friendship of all other commercial nations, and of being able to make herself as great a nation as ever existed. Look at her statesmen, that have been, and more such she has—look at her soldiers—and look at her productions ; what better guaranties are wanted for the preservation of her rights > , None can be ; if they are only properly used, j And what better to insure her prosperity, if ahe should he forced to take an independent posi tion l These circumstances and facts should make the South firm and decided in protecting her rights under the Constitution, which is the Union—Say what they ploaae, to yield our rights under the Constitution is to give up the Uuion, and to give up the Union is disunion.— And this the Clay compromise party are doing, and trying to hide their action under the cry of Disunion.
