tauzht thom that it is " moral blot upon Hit na
tion,'' which it is a sacred duty in them to wipe
out that laws made lor its protection deserve
te be " loathed" and ought to be 4isobeved.
We care not if Gen. Pierce should pledge him
self a, thousand times to aWde the Measures of !

The mystt-y is at last solved.' The reason
why Van Bi, en and Rantoul and Chase and
Dix and Cleseland and the villainous pack of
Free soilersfare flocking to the standard of
Pierce, is fuBy explained. They have a com
mon loathing for the Fugitive Slave Law and,
a eommon belief, that slavery is a moral blot up
on the nalio. The reason why Gen. Pierce re
fused to answer the letter of Mr. Scott is also
laid bare. He did not mean to commit himself
in favor of what he loahed, unless there should
b some urgent necessity for it. Not anticipat
ing a nomination for the Presidency, he prefer
red preserving for future use his modicum of
popularity in New Hampshire and therefore,
on Cant. Scott's inquiry, whether he would, if
President, veto any bill repeal inn or impairing
the efficiency of tlic Fugitive Slave law, he was
as silent as the grave.
. And now, we ask of Southern Democrats, as
patriots and not as partisans, do they desire the

and solemn responsibilities that it imposes, of

THE TESTIMONY OF THE ENEMY.
Some one would render good service (says the
Richmond Whig.) by recurring to the files of
the Union in 1847 and collectinz the magnifi
cent eulogiums then and there lavished upon
General Scott. At that time General Taylor
was the object of terror to the; palace minion ;
and it was, therefore, no treason to speak in fit
ting terins of the splendid achievements of Gen.
DCOtt.

ward one of these articles, written by the great
military historian, who then edited the central
organ of Locofocoism, We subjoin it :

THE EXTRADITION CASE.
New York, July 26
The extradition case of TitOmas Kaine, deman
ded by the British Government as a fugitive
from justice, has been postponed till Wednes
day. An immense mob of his excited country
men attempted to rescue him, but were preven
ted by a force of four hundred armed police,
who safely lodged him in prison.
Thomas Kaine, who is mentioned in the a
bove despatch, is an Irishman, charged with an
attempt to murder before coming to this coun
try, and demanded by the British Government
under the Ash burton treaty. After the usual
proceedings in the case, he was placed in the
custody ot the United States Marshal, who is
under orders to deliver him up to the British
Consul. Efforts have been made to prevent
this by means of a writ of habeas corpus, before
J udge Betts, who sustained tho demand under
the treaty. Another writ was then sued out
under a State law, and appointed to be heard
yesterday before Judge Bosworth, of the Supe
rior Court. In the mean time a meeting to
protest against extradition was held at Tamma
ny Hall on Friday evening, at which an address
was adopted reciting the charge, and cohtcneb
ing that there was no sufficient proof of hpine's
criminality to authorize his being given ip, &c.
These proceedings induced apprehensions for
the public peace, on Kaine's being talen to
court yesterday, which it seems were nol alto
gether unwarranted. JSat. int.

RECEPTION OF MR. WEBSTER AT MARSH
FIELD. IMPORTANT SPEECH!
Boston, July 25. The reception of Mr. Web
ster at Marshtield, yesterday, was a grand affair.
He arrived at Kingston, in the cars, at 4
o'clock, accompanied by Chas. Lanman, his pri
vate Secretary, and was greeted by an immense
concourse of citizens, lie was received at the
depot by a committee deputed to accompany him
to Marshfield.
Business was suspended along the route, and
the roads were" crowded with men, women and
children. Arriving at Marshfield, the procession
entered Mr. Webster's grounds, and halted in
front of a rostrum erected on a hill, around which
an immense number of his friends and neighbors
had cougregatod
The Hon. Seth S. Sprague delived an address
of welcome, to whieh Mr. Webster responded in
feeling terms. He said he had not looked for
such a testimonial of regard and Rnch a welcome
home. His heart was deeplv touched, not bv the
brilliant display around him, but by the fact
that the community among whom he had so long
dwelt, who knew him so well, should have man
ifested such unbounded esteem. After proceed
ing further in this strain he alluded to our poli
tical position. Mr, Sprague, he said, had been
pleased to refer to recent occurrences, unon
which he did not deem it fit for him to say any-
thimT'as- 6l?-Jtjmj had not yet come. Whatever
he had good or valuaBJ.fl in him, he would hold
in his own keeping, and nt trust it to tijie way
wardness of others.
He then alluded to the fishery question, and
said it would not become him to gay much on
t point, until he spoke officially; biOt he would
not neglect the matter under anyjrfrcujQBtan
ces. "Thefishermen," he continayfed, "shall be
protected in tW, rights at all hoards. Why

upon other topics, when the ceremonies closed
and the meeting adjourned.
A "SIGN OF THE TIMES."
The Union of yesterday, under the head of
"Sighs of the Times," publishes a series of items
to prove the desperate positions of the Whig
Jarty, and the glorious attitude of its own. The
bllowing scrap is the first ih the list :
"James E. Belser, a distinguished citizen of
Alabama, has withdrawn his name from the
"Union electoral ticket."
The Union will perhaps inform its readers, in
its next issue, that the Mr. Belser alluded to was,
until very recently, an influential and highly res
pected member of the Democracy, and that he
is now a staunch supporter of General Scott,'
Mr. Belser took a prominent part in the proceed
ings of the Scott ratification meeting at Mont
gomery, Alabama, and will make himself felt
in the Democratic ranks before the close of the
canvass. His change is one of the many "signs"
that indicate the approaching discomfiture of
Pierce and King,

and, in the opinion of rois meeting, the roote
along the Valleys of John'sSdver and the Watau
ga, crossing the Blue Ridget the Johns River
is cneaper, more practicable, more direct
in its connections with the Rail Road systems
of South Carolina, Tennessee and Western Vir
ginia, and more in harmony with the interests of
those systems, as well as with the interests of
our own rail roads :
Therefore, Resolved, That it would be impoli
tic in the Legislature to limit the western ex
tension of the Western Rail Road to the route
by Asheville and the French Broad.
Jiesolved, That while advocating the claimj of
the Watauga route, we will rejoice in any ex
tension of tho Central Rail Road, West, secured
by fair and impartial legislation, the State taking
two thirds of the stock, and ooenine the comne
tition of all the routes , and, while meeting our
nreuiren oi other sections, with this liberal feel
ing, we expect to be met by them in a spirit o,f
equal liberality.
Resolved, That tho chairman of this meeting
appoint delegates to represent the County of
Caldwell in the Rail Road Convention to be held
in Morganton on the twenty first of this month.
Resdvcd, That the proceedings of this meet
ing be forwarded for publication to the Salis

Whereas, throiihthe inscrutable providence
of God, we have been deprived of our beloved
tellow member, Lemuel Uoodman Daughtry ;
who, though in extreme youth, was an ornament
to his Society, to his class, and whom to know
was to love ; and whereas, the sad duty devolves
upc us, ot thus teebly expressing our sense ot
the loss which we, together with his much af
flicted family, have sustained, and of bearing
testimony to the pious virtues and worth of the
deceased, therefore be it unanimously
Restdved, -That, deenlv sensible of our bwn
and of his family's-S.creavement," we do- tender
so very young, so universally esteemed, ana
every way promising, should be cut off thus
suddenly, to the irreparable loss ot oil connected
with him ; as if, in very truth, "those whomthe
gods love die early."
Resolecd secondly, That, as members of that
Society to which he belonged which he loved
and spoke of to the last and as fellow-students
with whom he was connected by the tenderest
ties of friendship, we deeply deplore the remov
al of one from our midst who, avoiding every
approach to vice, ever preserved himself blame
less, and proved himself exemplary in the per
formance of every duty required of him.
Resolved ihirdlu. That, in testimony of our
esteem for the memory of the deceased, we will
wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty
days ; and especially request those members o
the Dialectic Society who were his class-mates
to join us in tnis last token of respect to our de
parted brother.
Resolved fourthly, That a copy of these resolu
tions be sent to the family of the deceased ; and
also to the Raleigh Register, North CJarolina
Standard, and Albemarle Bulletin, requesting
their publication ; and that they bo published
in the Universitv Magazine. "
