State Legislative Nominations. At a meeting on the "Democrat '"rc" Members of the Legislature ofthe State of Missouri on or about the 8th ult. Martin Van Buren w as nominated as a candid ate for the Presidency, and Thomas H. Benton, for the Vice Presidency, subject to the nomin ation of the Baltimore Conven tion, to which Convention, at the same time, Delegates were ap pointed. Musscchiisetls.--A. Convention ofthe Members of the Legisla ture of Massachusetts was held on -Wednesday the 21si ult., for From the Telegraph. We copy the following from the New York Journal of Commerce. The introductory remarks of the Journal show the spirit ofthe north ern press in relation to any attempts on the part of the owners of slaves, to recover their property. The fact is, that the provision of the Constitu tion authorizing the delivery of the slaves to their owner is little less than nugatory. The discharge of a slave claimed by his owner because the proceedings are not "according to law," is a summary mode of get ting rid of the claimant. Each magis trate may have a different idea of what is accord in ir to law, and let the owner do as he will, there is the un answerable donu "not according to law." Jin exhibition of Slavery in New Jersey. We copy the fol lowing account ofthe inhuman arrest of a company of blacks, claimed as fugitive Slaves, near Salem, N. J. from the "Freeman's Banner," of Wednesday last: About 4 o'clock on Monday morning last the quiet slumbers of our peaceful town were disturbed by the -ries of fire or murder. Those who understood the noise to be that of persons crying fire, proceeded forthwith to the house of the Reliance fire engine, and rang the bell violently, which soon drew a number of citizens from their beds into" the street to ascertain the situation of.the fire; but no light could be seen, nor fire found raging. It was not the calamities of a fire that caused the noise but the screams and heart rending crie of eight miserable beings bound in chains, being conveyed through the town in a wagon to the hotel, under the cus tody of a constable and persons who claim them as slaves. They were taken from their beds at a house four or five miles from this town their own homes, thus naked, with but their scanty bed clothes to wrap around them, to screen them from the piercing winds and falling snow; and brought here to be sworn to and remained there for four hours, i gave bail to keep the peace and appearance at teim of court. During the scuf fle in the room, ot the hotel, the reputed slave made her escape out of the window. The other blacks were deliver ed into the custody of the Sheriff on .Monday evening, with a charge thru they chonld be furn ished with comfortable lodgings in the county jail. Yesterday the further investigation of the claims of the slave holders was under discussion, when, after a number of preliminary motions and argu ments, the examination was fur ther adjourned to the first Friday in March.
