Py the wav, we notice that in the ptogieao ol the loll.
pending a motion to commit ton lull to the ominiUcc
of the whole, Mr. Stephen of (lenrjr, n, moved to
amend the motion to commit by adding intiiiciion,
and Mr. Puno of Indiana, moved to amend the mo
tion of Mr. Stephen to commit the b 11 with nitrnc
tiona, by adding an additional eertion to reaiore the
Miaaouri Compromise Mr Miinn'a motion Wii
agreed to by a vole ol in!) aye to l'J n.iy j
Among thoe w ho voted lor Mr Punn'e molioii we
find the name of the o called " National" Know
Nothing at the North, including Jaeoh Kroom. that
remarkably fine man and model ol nationality (rom
Fennylvanirt, Bennett of New Yoik, Haven of New
York, Mr. Fillmore's representative and right hand
man.
Finna'ly a motion to commit tho bill with the
amended instruction failed.
f- Political resurrection are seldom poildo
hardly, if ever, successful, Rnd this Mr Fillmore and
hit friends Will find. The world moves forward
What is decent mediocrity under s me cirrmnsian
ces, degenerates into timid imber ility under other
circumstances. So the country would find were Mr
Fillmore, by some unprecedented miracle, or by some
second accident to be placed in the Presidential
Chair.
Tba days of the compromise excitement are too re
cently pant to he forgotten by any one, even the
youngest, who is at all qualified to take a seriou
part in the discussion of public nfhurs We all
know that the only portion or part of the cne of
measures known as such, or which passed at
that time, at all favourable to the South, was ihe
Fugitive Slave Law, a law which, although m strict
pursuance of a distinctly worded constitutional re
quirement, received not a single senatorial vote
from the northern wing of Mr Fillmore's then
party, and but three representative voles from the
same wing of said party. Now, Mr Ki I inn re's
frienda claim for him much credit ns a grcnt pacifi
cator. How was this shown what are the evidences
of it what influence did Mr. Fillmore exert ? Hither
be bad no tort of influence ut all with his liicnds
and parlizans, or he exerted it the wrong way -Take
tither horn of tho dilemma biu! what comes of
his claims. Evidently he was a mere cipher or
worse. His friends at the North in defending him
for signing the Fugitive Slave Law, say, and say
with troth that aubstantially the North gained every
thing. It gained California, the most valuable of all,
and the other territories were certain.under the opera
tion f the Mexican law, to be Free Soil, even if na
ture did not unfit them for slave labor.
A very short time sinee Hon. James Brooks, of New
York, delivered a speech at a Fillmore meeting in
Cincinnati an able and plausible speech, ij w hich
be defended Mi. Fillmore's course as President with
special reference to these compromise measures, which
speech he concluded by asserting that Mr. Fillmore
was bound by bis pledges to his party not to use the
teto power to arrest any lcg;slation of Congress, un
less manifestly unconstitutional--that be was advised
by bis Attorney General that the Fugitive Slave Law
was constitutional and therefore he signed it. And
Mr. crooks adds mat even Jir. drward, similarly sil
natcd moat bare acted in a simitar manner. Mr.
Brooks does not r-ay tbat Mr. Fillmore would not
bare signed thi law but for the advice of his Attor
ney General, and, perhaps it would be making rather
iree with any man's private, motives to assert this,
a " - m a ' -.m a -" a a

signing the bill bis care in fortifying himself op

It ia to le remembered that Mr. Kii'.aure and his
friends rest lis c'a m n ainly upoft b w,t(t on

and proper to eiamir e in'o the nature and extent cf

It is u little singular that a Southern loan once
periled his life to establish the claim of (leo James
Vatnn Webb of the New , ork Courier and Hmin
rr to be considered and treated as a grnt!(miii.
Webb challenged Cdley, a Northern man, who de
riming to fight him. tefu-ed to say whether he was
or was not a gentleman. For this Webb's second,
the Hon Wm .1 Craves, of Kentucky, challenged
Cilley and kd ed him in a duel Then it appears
that Webb, whom a Northern man refused to ac
knowledge to he a gentleman, and whose c ami to that
character a Southern man fought to est.ib.ish, is now
the bitter assailant of the South, entering into all the
prejudice of ihe New York Tribune and I imes on
the subject of " peculiar institutions" of the South
and rivalling Sumner, lieecher. Mrs. Stowe, Abhy
Ful-oin, and I nrkcr in their cant and hypocrisy

I'coplc are often subjected to extreme mortifica
tion by indulging in disparaging remarks of s'rangers
and learning siihseiuently that the person them
selves, or some of t t.eir intimate friends, were wiihm
hearing of the remarks. Such unpleasant occurren
ces rarely have so pleasant a termination as the
following singu'ar rencontre between fir. Pwight
and Mr. Uennie :
A Dr. Pwight was travelling through New Jersey,
bechanced to stop at p stage hotel, in one of its
populous tow ns, fur the night At a late hour of tho
same night, arrived al-o at the inn, Mr. Pennie, who
had the nvsforlu' e to learn from the landlord that
his bode were all paired with lodgers except one
occupied by the celebrated Pr. Pwight.
Show mc to his appartment, exclaimed Pennie ;
although I am a stranger to the Itev. Poctor, per
haps I can bargain with him for my lodging. The
landlord accordingly waited on Mr Pennie to the
Poctor's room, nnd there left h ni to introduce him
self. The Poctor, although in his night gow n, cap
and slippers, and just ready to ics gn himself to the
refreshing arms of Somnus. requested the strange in
truder to he seated. The Pcctor was struck with the
literary physiognomy of his companion, unbent his
austere brow, and commenced a literary conversation,
j The names of Washington, Franklin, Rittenhonse, a
I host of literary and distinguished characters, for some
, time gave zest and interest to their conversation, un
I til Pwight chanced to mention the name of Pennie.
I "Pennie, the editor of (he Fortfoli, (say tba
: Poctor in a rhapsody) is the Addi'on of the United
States the father of American Belles Lettres. But
sir,'' continued he, " is it not astonishing, that a man
of such genius, fancy, and feehni, should aban ion
himself to the inebriating bowl, and to bacchanalian
revels 1"
M Sir " said Pennie, "jou are mistaken, I have
been intimately acquainted with Dtonie-for several
years, and I never knew or saw him intoxicated."
