We have in the Legislature of N w York, a practi cal demonstration of this union between the political Whigs and the fatidical Abo litionists. Contrast the action of the 0 h;o L-gislaiure, under a Democratic major i.y, with thit of the Whigs in the Legis lature of Now York- In tl first, every aid is giv n by law to the master for the recov piy of hi "slave.

He is pledged to veto any bill which Congress may pass, abolishing slavery in the District of Columbia, or with its interference in the States. 2. He is pledged to veto any bill appro priating the surplus revenue to emancipa tion, as being unconstitutional. 3. Me is pledged, and in that his North ern friends go with him, to approve any bill, without the restriction of slavery for the admission of Florida as a State. With such an open, direct, and positive course on his part, and such an equivocal and unsa'isfaclory a one on the part ol Uen. Harrison, can the south hesitate between them? Gen. Harrison has been pronounced by one well qualified to judge, to be both "physically and intellectually" incompe tent to the high duties of President. His opinions and his acts, his friends and his supporters; all admonish us that he is not the man for Republicans to trust. The principles he professes, the means employ ffi-pio a!lv does wh H it profoscs, aids the master in the recovery of his runaway ne-ied, and the ends proposed by those who law of New York.

That the Whigs j ti )t our p -opk, then fore, he deceived by act with the AboluioUists, both in (ongn ss the clamor ot our opponents, their parade? surplus revenue to this object, so near his heart. I he South and South-west will he called on to contrdjute this revenue, net necessary to any legitimate object of the Government, but to the. purchase and emancipation of thrir own slave-; and those who own no slaves are to be taxed to aid this great scheme of emancipation. The number of slaves i:i the U. States exceed three millions which, at a moder ate average, would be valued at twelve hundred millions oj 'dollars. Thi would not only exhaust the public lands the surplus revenue but would r; quire a di rect tax on something more substantial than chickens ami ducks; anil would more likely call for th;-; Tile of the log cab in man s cow in in tut? purchase oi nis gun, about wh'ch, at one time, we he rd so much. To the same question, Mr. Van Huron answers that Congress has no such power and 'the consent of the States" cannot add any p.v.ver whieh Con gress does not already possess under the Constitution. To the question--' V onld you sanction any bill granting appropri ations of the public money to any State, for the emancipation of their slaves" JUr. Van liuren answers "I unhesita tingly sav, Congress could not, and that 1 never would give my sanction to such a measure In the same letter, he further adds If State consent could confer power, when the want of it. otherwise be so manifest might it not lead to attempts by the Federal Government to accomplish the came object, without either the ceusent of the slave holder or indemnity for his losr.?"' That such would be the consequence none can question, who will loM; around and see what is passing on this momentous subject The supporters of Gen. Harrissoa, to a man, from the non-s-iaveholding Sta;cs, have voted in Congre-s against the resolu tions forbidding the introduction of Aboli tion petitions. They ate pledged to a re peal of those resolutions. This will be iheir first move, should they gain a ma jority. The. abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia, iuxt. Then the interdiction of carrying slues from one Slate to another tor sale. Thus encour 'aged, like the murderer, fatally bent on mischief," their next and final move will be universal emancipation. This i no chimera, intended Io alarm, but a reasonable calculation, which ihe feeii.t, and conduct of the Abolitionists fully justifies. The bold and impudent res .lotions of the 'World's Convention," in London, declar ing the sale and transfer ot negro s from the "older to tue more mewlv eetikd States, and log cabin proee.-ieiis the ballot box is and the Journals fully testify. That the the pi ace to w 'hich freemen resort, through Abohtiom-ts, every where support tt c Whigs in iheir eh -rtions, as .a fai t no longer admitting tdMoubt In a le'ter just received whim their might is felt and their voice aid.
