KiV S of fetf nVthe eatire union and harmony of ?SeS between themse ve. and the New TafcEvening Post.. The one is as much deH-hSdaT& other, and both appeal to rejoice with exceeding great joy. JThe Union publishes the resotttt.ens as adopted, but takes good care to throw under Uie tahli or into the fire the resolution that WM rejected, and all the debate and proceeds inrs thereon. Now, the Evening -Post, the grSat Democratic Free-soil organ o 'that par ty in New York, and decidedly the ablest and most consistent journal upon that side of the question in that State, is more honest. That paper, tells the rbhole story, and exults at the result. The Union is not guilty of a tuggestiofalsi, but it is of a suppresnoveri It does cot tell "the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth," but just so much of it asfsuits its own purpose, but which puts ' a false coloring upon the whole matter. Let us bring the honest, fair-spoken, frank, and disingenuous Evening. Post upon the atandas a witness in this important matter. r. fnrrA Mr. Pos take the stand, and tell us why you so exult at whst wastfoneand what was not done by the Democratic Free Soil Convention at Syracuse, Be frank and candid, as ym usually are. Go on, we lis ten. What about the resolutions? Evening Post. "The resolut ions are, in terms, aubstantiaHy the same as those adopted last year, BCT 1TOT AT ALL THE SAME IK THEIR SIGN1FI- caitce. Ttie attempt to induce the Democracy q of New York to approve of the policy of the pre terit National Administration, wa voted dowa by a large majority; and therein lies a moral which we leave 10 tJie Union Safety committee and the Journal of Commerce to digest at their leisure,- What was not resolved by the convention x of far graver significance than what was resolved, and we trust it will put an end to those unhappy divi sions in our party, in reference to Stale poLcy, which can only result in protracting ihe power of a; class ot men at Albany who have shown them selves indifferent alike to the restraints con science and the Constitution. Aware that differ ence of opinion existed among Democrats about the policy ol the present National MnuHisltation --especially . about itf caowsiwo achievement, the Fugitive Slave law the cohvektios TEKT FEOPERLT REFUSED TO 6ITE IT THEIR AP raovAL,or to permit Fuch an unnecessary and un profitable issue to be introduced into the canvass." And so vou Bav. Mr. Post, that your Dom- ocxatic Free-sou. Syracuse Convention considered the Fugitive Slave law as lhe crowning achievement of 'the present Na tional Administration,' and 'refused to GIVE IT THEIR APPROVAL?' Post. That is precisely what I said. If we understand you, you mean to say that while the resolutions that were adopted, or rather readopted, being those adopted last year, are in appearance an approval of the set tlement made by Congress of the quesiions which have divided the people of these States in other words, of lbe measures known by the name of 'the Compromise, yet 'their significance' or meaning is very different, and that,, in fact and in truth, they condemn one of (hose measures, to wit, the Fugitive Slave law? Post. That is the unmistakeabie mean ing of the language I have used. My opin ions upon that subject are no secret to any one "who chooses to be informed of them. Will you now be good enough to state what on meant by saying that What was hot resolved by the convention is of tar graver 8 ignipic a n ce than what was resolved?' "- Posf . Tbe meaning oftbia language is very obvious when you receUect.what the convention refused to do. What was it? Post; Why, 'Mr. Fowler, of Orange, for himself, and Mr. Murray, of New York, sub mitted the following additional resolution: tved. That the Democratic rarty in the State of New York will faithfully adhere to the recent settlement, by Congress, of the questions which have unhappily divided the people of these Slates, and will neither countenance nor sanction any sectional agitation or legislation on the sub jects embraced in that settlement.' . ;Mr. Wright, of Schenectady, and Nye, or Ma dison, urged the adoption of the report of the com mittee; Mr. Maurice dissented, and offeied the amendment above, voted down in committee. If it was voted down it would be regarded as a sanc tion of agitation and of legislation tending to ob struct Uie free operations of the law. "Mr. Murphy, sf Kings.sustainrd this view.-r- He accused the resolutions of ambiguity, and of confining themstlvts to an expression of adherent Hifih&,'Cprnprcmie resolutions, as they stood at the ,fnsH fhe adoption thereof, ard kot iitclubisg tneKGmVEBUX.

Post What .else could, I mean when I said that 'ihe resolutions are, in terms, sub stantially, fhe same as those adopted last year, , but not at all the same in their significance? I said, also, that Mr. Murphy accused the resolutions of ambiguity that they did not include the Fugitive Slave law: - ' Very well. You have been very frank and explicit in your testimony, and may now retire, unlf 6s our neighbor, tbe Union, wishes to cross examine you. Here we have the whole matter what was done, and what the convention refused . to do -all of whicb meets the warm and en tire approbation of the. Umom, edited as it is . by Southern men!

W$ give the editors joy that they have finally tuned their organ uj to the Evening " Post's concert pitch; all 'will- hereafter, we . presume, be concord and harmony between ' them. . ; . : ' " . ' The tTwiON, if we rightly remember, was : iriuch concerned when a jesoiutmn offered Cbv John'M. ' Scott; q., t the-Lancaster Whig Convention, was laid on the table ; bat not a word of complaint or censure has escaped it thai a somewhat similar resolution was laid upon the table by the Syracuse Con venfiwj, and others, declaretl by Mr. Murphy to be 'ambiguous and by the Evening Post to be very? different . 'in their significance from what they purported Jo be, were adop ted. This reminds us of flop's fable of the Farmer and the Lawyer. i- Joha Van Buren can now, doubtless, cer tify for the orthodoxy of the Democracy of New York, as Senator Chase certifies tp that of the Democracy of Ohio, and avow the tame, determination to support the ticket formed by the convention, for the' same fea sons.to wit: though 'it is true that the conven tion adonted no distinct resolution concern ing the Fugitive Slave act;' nevertheless, the position of the Democracy ot unio, Lcw Ifork, J in relation to that odious enactment, is sufficiently apparent by the Censure passed upon it by the convention in the unanimous I nomination," &c. THE BOSTON JUJB1LEE; t f THE CLOStXG PROCEEDINGS. , , . Boston, September 19 The grand "finale of the three days Jubilee in this city closed to-day, whh a military and civicproceBsion -a dinnner on the Com mon beneath ari immense tent made foe the occasion, andageneral.illumtnation and fire works in the evening. It is estimated that over 100,000 strangers are in the city. THE GREAT PROCESSION. The procession started shortly before 1 1 o'clock, and was two hours and twenfy min utes passing the Revere louse. The escort was composed of Ihe National .Lancers, one rigement of artillery, and a brigade of infan try. The mechanical and manufacturing arts were strongly represented, and constituted the most interesting feature of the pageant. This department was one mile in length The Students of Harvard College, the various Societies, and the Children of the Public Schools, were out in gr at numbers. The distinguished guests oi the city rode in open carriages. Prominent among them was Lord Elgin, whose reception among' the people was' most cordial. Tbe absence of the President from the pro cession, on account of illness, caused some disappointment. The. diversified and brilliant decorations of the streets, and buildings on the route, and the immesse crowds gathered in the streets and on the balconies, presen ted a scene impossible to describe. THE DINNER. After the -procession, dinner Was served up under an immense tent on the Common. About four thousand persons were present, including President Fillmore. On the removal of the cloth, Mayor Bige low rose and said: On account of the departure of the train, it becomes necessary for the President of the United States to leave us early; and I sup pose that you, as well as myself, would be unwilling that that misfortune should befal this assemblage, until we have at least prof fered him our respects in the ua.ua! manner. (Applause.) I, thirefore, interrupt you thus early m this part, to give you as a! sentiment . "The health of the President of he United States." j The above sentiment was received by three times three hearty cheers, after which it was responded to by Mr Fillmore, as fol lows: Mr. Mayor and fellow-citizens : In ac knowledging the compliment which you have paid to the high office which it is my fortune to bold, I rise rather for the purpose of excusing myself than of making a speech. You have been pleased to drink my health. 1 wou'd it were as perfect on the occasion as it usually is; but, unfortunately, a slight in disposition within the last twenty-four hours has deprived me of the great pleasure which I should have enjoyed this day, in participa ting in your exercises. I am unable to par take of the costly viands under which your miles of tables groan; I am scarcely able to enjoy the 'feast of reason and flow of soul;' and, more than all this, I am compelled by imperious circumstances to leave vou thus eaily in this banquet, because I feel that my public duties require that I should be at Wash ington with the utmost possible despatch. I have stolen from the hours that were perhaps due to the nation a brief space to meet my fellow-citizens in the city of Boston. (Ap plause.) 1 meftt you as citizens of Boston. On this festive occasion we know no party distinction. (Applause.) Nay, more, we scarcely known a 'national distinction. (Great applause and cheers.) There are gathered around this festive board the American and the 'Briton, liyin under different laws, but, thank God, two of the freest nations und r the sun. (Cheering ) me iiui e asperity mat wast engendered bv the Revolution which separated us from our mother country, I am happy to say has lony since disappeared, and we meet like breth ren of the same family. Speaking the same language, and enjoying the same religion, are we not one? (Applause.) Feljow-citizens, I trust that Jhe unexpec ted necessity that. compels me to leave you thus early on this festive occasion will induce no one to leave the table on my account.' 1 trust particularly that his Lordship, the Gov ernor of Canada, will remain with you. (Ap plause.) ' I know that he, and those with whom he is associated,, will receive.from you, as they have already received, a most cordial greeting (Applause.) But fellow-citizens, i can say no more; my heart is full. I had no c0ncr.pti.9n of what t witnessed this day from my window. I thought I saw Boston in all its g'ory when I first came info Its borders. I knew that it had its merchant princes, but I did not know until to-dav that it had its me- I - 11 t " cnanic noDie-men 01 nature . (lireat applause and cheering,) --. But, fellow-citizens, pardon me, and per mit me to bid you adieu. I can assure you that this joyous occasion will be remembered oy me to tbe latest hour of my life. I .shall look back upon it with delight, and I trust that my children will also. Mafrthe H Union, which sheds these blessings over a happy people of 25,090,000, continue tintil time shall be no longer.- (Nine cheers.)

(Applause.) -And as he imposed upon me his command to remain with you, most certainly I shall re main. ; (Applause.) But I must say I never rectrrvra an oroer Deiore, Irom any authority, which more completely jumped with my own wishes. (Laughter and applause.) jne-rresiaent having giveti the hand of ieuowsmp and tarewelt to Lord Elgin, May or Bigelow; and others, left the pavilion, Hon. A. H. Stuart. Secretary of thelnte rior.having beejn called.upon, spoke as fol I0W8: . Gentlemen: I have no time to respond toyour flatteriijg call for a speech.

I go away from Boston! with the frank declaration although-1 said a few days ago that I wa not a stranger upon your soi!--that I iave never before known what Boston was. (Ap plause ) I haye never known the heartiness, the cordiality, tbe warmth of the true New England character, and it satisfies me that it has not degenerated from the character of the fbrefatherf of j the country. ' I regret exceedingly that 1 am compe$el to tak this unceremonious and abrupt de parture, and to inierrupjt the flow of your festivities by so sudden a retreat. But yon know the necessity. The President .awaits me, and I bid you farewell I hope a short farewell for I hepe it will -not be lone before I shall have an opportuni'y to visit Boston, and to pay my respects to her citizens, and especially to public ; friends , whpm I- have known before, but whose acquaintance jL have, now formed ; .'in their private capacity and at. their homes. I bid you fare well and wish to all of y ou all possible prosperity and happiness. (Applause.) "Secretaries Stuart and Conrad having ta ken leave of Lord Elgin, Mayor Bigelow and .others, here left the Pavilion. 4 Speeches were Afterwards made -by Lord Elgin, Gov. Boutwell, Edward Everett, R. C. Winthrop, Hon. Joseph Howe, of Nova Scotia, Hon. Mr. Hincks, of Canada, and others. The festivities closed about 7 o'clock. We welcome, with the greatest pleasure, from Massachusetts, voices like the following, which, it will be perceived, precisely concur with what we said upon the same matter a few days since: : From the Boston Courier of September 15. Practical: Working of the Higher Law. The deplorable event which we have just had occasion to chronicle in our colums namely, the murder of two American cit izens bv an armed mob of negroes must give a most serious and alarming turn to the thoughts of every man who has been heieto tore in the habit of looking with any forbear ance upon the doings of the Abolitionist and Freesoil. agitators. There is no man of com. mon information who does not see that this melancholy occurrence never would have ta ken place but for the instigations which have been applied to the ignorant and deluded blacks by the fanatics of the "higher law" creed. They are the principals in the mur det, the bKcks are the agents; the principals will escape punishment, while the unhappy and misguided agents are sure, to suffer. All this was clearly foreseen from the be ginning, and distinctly pointed out to the Dublic. wherever common sense and rnmmnn discretion had any connexion with the news- .1 . .. . paper press, in me nature at tning. could an v other conseauences than sedition, riot. 1 1 and murder, with their regular concomitanta of evil and suffering, follow the teachings of . . . . . . tnose maumen who have Deen urging people to resistance against legal authpnty? Again we say, these dreadful deeds of blooshed ought to bring to his senses every man who has been so far misled as to lend tbe smallest countenance to the anti-slavery "higher-law"doctrine. What has been done in Pennsylvania at the instigation of the pseudo-philanthropist in that region might, for mere accident, have taken place at our own doors, as a consequence of the insane ravings of Theodore Parker, Wendell Phillips, Gar lison.Stc. If we have escaped blooshed thus far, it has been owing to the greater self restraint of the blacks in this quarter, greater cowardice in the apostles of sedition and mur der. And now let any man ask of himself, who are the real friends of the blacks? Are those men their friends who stir them up to crime, and then. leave ihem to suffer the penalties of the law? Are those men their friends wha are doing their utmost to change their char acter from that ofpeact able and inoffensive beings to that of rioters and shedders of blood? Are those men their friends who are foment. ing between them and the whites that most savage and inappeasable of all hostilities, the war of races? Are those men their friends who, under the name ot philanthropy, eman cipation, equal rights, and the like fine-sounding phrases, have in all quarters brought up on them increased oppression and animosity, a heavier present evil and a blacker pros pect of the future? who have added weight to the chains of the slave, and made the free black an object of jealousy and suspicion ? who are mnkingr diM-ker and mnre HmaVv tko house of bondage, and removing further off the day of universal freedom? The sad destiny which awaits the colored race in this country, khould they -continue much longer under the guidance of snrh "friend," is well depicted in the following cam at is ironrme vt. x. express: The poor negro of the free States, under the criminal auvice -to arm ana Bhoot of the Free Soil Abolitionists.

The "higher law" we have been hearing so much in theory is only the musket and bullet in prac tice ; and when the ignbritnt negro is taught this higher law, he knows no other way to execute its high behest Hence, when the lower law, as it is nicknamed, of the Constitution and of the federal Government, is brought to bear upoir one of Ins face, he naturally resorts to the higher Jaw of shooting the other race; and so name these murders and these rndbs we record to day in Pennsylvania. - ! sTeachinsr men dav after Av norant nesrro man. that lau ri . passed. and which ihn iiii,na t , - ,k j- . .

A a general .thing, they appear to be contented with' their lot, out the action of several or the estates, in passing prohibitory laws to their further emigration, like Indiana, js arousing them to proper appreciation of their destiny, n We prcffiSf that this is only a commencement of a war against the blacks. The next step in the work will be to expatri ate them from the Free States by compulsory means. We believe, if a vote in the State of Indiana to expel every negro from its borders were taken to day, it would be carried in the af firmative two to one. To this rule of expatria tion the black race is inevitably tending. We are more and more convinced of this every day. We voted against the negro clause of the new Con stitution, but on looking over the vote in the sev eral counties, we.find ourselves in a minority of over ten to one. We voted against that clause because it made no provision to colonize the blacks irom tne country. PLANK ROAD TO RALEIGH. The Stockholders in the Fayetteville and Northern Rank Road, at their general Meet ing on Saturday last, upon hearing the report of their Engineer, determined to locate their road from the market square in Fayettville, through t'erson street, to a point on the Cape Fear; thence on the East side of that river to Raleigh. The routeXsfill pass some twelve or fifteen miles West of Smithfield, so as to enable the Stockholders to project a branch.! as soon as the subsoption to stock in that place will justify it. A resolution was adonted to prosecute the work with all possible dispatch; and hand are already on the first section of the route, between the River and McPhail's, three miles distant, near the juncture of the Raleigh and Taiborough roads, and contracts made for the Lumber. In the location, this route will be a common road, both to Raleigh and Warsaw, for at leait five or six miles making one bridge across the Cape Fear River and the road as far as Archibald Holmes's answer for both. The route from McPhail's is contemplated to run near bmith s Mill, on Black River, thence neat Steward's Mil, on Mingo, thence to the cross roads, near Esquire Stevens's, thence me best line, crossing Middle Creek between Finch's Store and Leach's Mill, thence by Raitd'a MrH 4o Raleigh. A resolution was also adopted, offering a compromise wun me "Joint Stock flank Road," who are projectinsr a road to Raleish on the West side of the Cape Fear River: and the matter was left with a committee consisting of D. G. Mac Rae, J. G. Shep- nera, ana a. a. McK.elhan, to arrange. Fayetteville Observer. Wives of the Scarlet Degree. Ai the last meeting of the I. O. O. F., Grand Lodge of the U.

Change of air must have had instant effect upon his spirits, for from Galena he- writ us a very a musiag letter, which, among otherlbinos, .tells us of a desperate quarrel that ; took plac on board the boat between a real live dandy tourist and .a real live Yankee settler. The latter trod on the toes or the former, whereupon the former threatened to "kick oat of the cabin" the latter. 'You'll kick me out of the cabiu ! 'Yes, sir, I'll kick you out of this cabin 'You'll kick me, Mr. -Hitchcock, out of this cab in!' . ; . Yes, sir, 111 kick your Mr. Hitchcock!' Well, I guess sid the Yankee very coolly, after being satisfied that it waa himself that, stood in such imminent peril of assault, I guess, since you talk of kicking, you never heardrne tell about old Bradly and my mare, : there tu hum V 'No, sir, nor da 1 wish ' Wal; guess it won't set you back much, any how, as kicking is generally best to be considered on. You see, old Bradley is one. of those sancti monious, long faced hypocrites, who put a religions su t on every Sabbath triorning, and with a good deal of screwing manage to keep it. on till after church jn the afternoon. Wal,hehad an old roan mare, that would jump over any sixteen rail fence m Illinois, and open any barn that hatTtit a pad lock on it. Two or three' times I found her in my stable, and I told Bradley about it. He was very sorry an unruly animafc would watch her, and in a serious manner, with a face twice as lung as old Deaeon Farm's on Sabbath day. I knew all the time he was lying, and so I watched him, and bis old roan .u, and for three nights regular old roan come to my stable about bed-time, and -just about daylight old Bradley would come, bridle her, and ride her off. I then took my old mare to the blacksmith's, got corks made about four inches long, and had 'era nailed to her hind feet. Your heels, mister, ain't nothing to 'em t took her hum, gave her about ten feet halter, and tied her right in the centre of the stable, fed iier well with oats about cine o'clock, and uking a good smoke, went to bed, knowing that my old mare was a truth. telling animal, and that she'd givea good re port of herself in the morning. I wasn't fairly asleep, before the old 'uman hunched me, and wanted to know what on earth was the mailer at the stable. Says I, 'Go to sleep, Peggy ; it's nothing but Kate she's kicking off flies, I guess.' Pur y soon she hunched me ag tin, and says she ' 'Mr. Hitchcock, du get op and see what in the world it the matter With Kate.' "Lay still, Peggy; Kate wdl take eare of her self, I guess ' 4Wal, the next mornini, about davliaht, Brad ley, with his bridle in his hand, cum to (he stable, and as true as the book of Genesis, when he saw the old roan's sides, head, and starn, he cussed and swore worse than you did, mister, when I come down on your toes. 'Arter breakfast that mornio', Joe Davis cum to my house, and says he 'Brad ey's old roan is nearly dead she's cut all to pieces, and can scarcely move.' I want to know-,' says I, 'how on arth did it happen V 'Now, wh 1st we were talking, up cum that ever lasting hypocrite, Bradley, and says he 'Mr. Hitchcock, niy old roan is ruined !' "Du tell,' says I. 'She's all cut to pieces,' says he ; do you know whether she was in your stable last night?' W.al, mister, with this I let out : 'D. you know it V (ihe Yankee here, in illustrating, made a sud den advance on tbe dmdy, who m ide way lor him unconsciously , as it were); 'do I know it, you no uouled, squash headed, old night-owl,-you ! you hay-hooktn, corn-cribbin. fodder-fugin, cent-shav-in, whitfin of nothin, you ! Kate kicks like a mere dum beast, but I've reduced the thing to a science!" The Yankee had not erased to advance, or the daudy, in his astonishment, to retreat; and now, the motion of Ihe latter being accelerated by an apparent demonstration to suit the action to the word, he found himself in the 'social hall,' lumb ling backwards over a pile of baggage, and tear ing the knee of his pants as he scrambled up, a perfect scream of laughter stunning him from all sides. The defeat was total ; a few moments af ter he was seeo dragging his own trunk on shore, while Mr. Hitchcock finished his story on tue boiler-deck. ST. Louis Reveille.
