James A. Mims, Secretary.
The longest despatch ever sent from Boston
to New York, was that giving the Acadia’s
news, on Sunday. It commenced coming
through at half-past 4 o’clock, and finished at
half past 9 ; the greatest telegraphic feat on
record. Copy could not be furnished in the
office in Boston rapidly enough to keep the
wires actively employed.

Pillmorcism
The anxious zeal with which the whig jour
nals trumpest forth their assertion that Fill
more voted for the first of Mr. Atherton’s re
solutions, proves the flimsy and utterly
groundless nature of their attempts to vindi
cate him from the charge of being deeply tinc
tured with the doctrines of the abolitionists.
Very true, Fillmore did vote for the first reso
lution, and so did Giddings. One hundred
and ninety-three of the members of the House,
besides Fillmore, voted for it—only six mem
bers voted against it. If voting for the first i
resolution proves that Fillmore is not an abo
litionist, it proves also that Giddings is none,
and Giddings boldly avowed, in the face of
live House, that he was an abolitionist in the
broadest sense of the word.
As soon as |he first resolution passed, it ap
pears from the journals that, on motion of Mr.
Coffin, the House adjourned. The next day
the friends of abolition assembled in the House
with a better organization and more determin
ed opposition to the resolutions.
The first resolution is the most general of
the whole series ; a mere truism, or abstrac
tion, which only an amalgarnationist could
think of opposing:
Resolved, That this government is a govern
ment of limited powers, and that by the Con
stitution of the United States, Congress has
NO JURISUICTON OVER TH*E INSTITUTION OF SLAVE
RY IN' THE SEVERAL STATES OF THE CONFEDERACY.
Fillmore, however, and the other abolition
ists, wore taken by surprise, or they would
not have voted even for this ; for the next dav
they opposed all others, which are in fact
equally unobjectionable as interpretations of
the letter of the Constitution.
The fourth, for instance, was divided—one
branch of it declares that ‘ Congress, in the I
exercise of its acknowledged powers, has no
right to discriminate between the institutions 1
of one portion of the States and another, with j
a view of abolishing the one and promoting 1
the other.’ One would suppose no man would
contradict this proposition, unless he were
convinced that one portion of the States pos
sessed privileges not possessed by other States,
and unless he were anxious to bring on civil
war and disruption of the Union. But on the j
question of this second branch of the fourth
resolution we find Fillmore, Adams, Giddings, ,
Slade, and twenty other abolitionists voting
against its adoption, while one hundred and
seventy-four members voted in favor of it.
The fifth resolution declares that ‘all at
tempts on the part of Congress to abolish
slavery in the District of Columbia or the
Territories, or to prohibit the removal of slaves
from State to State, or to discriminate be- j
tween the institutions of one portion of the I
Confederacy and another, with the views afore- j
said, are in violation of the Constitution, des
tructive of the fundamental principles on
which the union of these States rests, and be
yond the jurisdiction of Congress &c., &e.
Would anybody but an abolitionist and ene
my of the Southern States, vote against the ■
adoption of such proposition as these ? Is
Congress clothed by the Constitution with
power to prohibit a planter from carrying his j
slaves from one State to another r May he not
buy half a dozen slaves in Mississippi and
bring them into Louisiana, with or without
the consent of Congress r May not a planter
remove with Slaves from Louisiana across the
Sabine into Texos ? And whence does Con- i
gross derive the power to prevent such remov
al ? Fill-move, the abolitionist ; Fillmore, the j
whig candidate for the Vice Presidency, thinks |
Congress‘;has such power —we would like to !
see Fillmore the abolitionist or any of his
friends point to the clause or sentence in the
Constitution that bestows such power. We
will tell Mr. Fillmore and his friends that the
attempt to exercise this power would be an act
of revolution —an act which the people of
the South will never submit to.
We should bo glad to hear General Taylor’s i
nation of a bill to prohibit him from transport- !
ing the slaves he lately purchased in New Or
leans to his plantation in Mississippi. We
should be glad toj know whether or not he
would veto such a bill, if presented to him,
while President oi the United States.

xV. follows;
Cambridge, Vt., June 18,1846.
Mr Seth W. Fowlc—Dear Sir; For several years
j past, my usual good health has been occasional!}'
j interrupted by spells of cough, produced by colds;
: a year ago last winter I was brought to the verge
of the grave by a very severe cough, accompanied
with pains in botli sides, between the shoulders,
tfcc., which, with long continued night sw r eafs. and
other alarming symptoms, reduced me so low that
my friends despaired of my recovery. 1 consulted
physicians, and tried the various remedies of the
day, but none of them cured me. At last I procured
Dr. Wistar's Balsan of Wild Cherry, and it saved
ray life; I have not enjoyed better health forma»F I
years; therefore 1 ean recommended others who I
need it, to try it. SAMUEL BENTSEY.

of pine land, a stone factory building on the Tal

forty feet broad, two story high, with the addition
of two wings each thirty feet long by twenty feet
broad, and the machinery of the factory, consisting

the purpose of manufacturing cotton goods are
equal to those ol any other place iu the Southern
