The Stockholders Meeting, held at the Com
mercial Bank on Monday, rejected the amend

THE AMERICAN ORGANIZATION.
The enemies of this order at the South charge
them with anti-slavery sentiments and designs,
'with a persevering mendacity worthy of party
surveillance and obedience; while at the North
they are accused of being pro-slavery in their
notions. It is a singular position of things, that
the only movement that has ever been made in
this country, by general effort, to vindicate the
Constitution and sustain the rights of the South,
is rejected by almo&t all the Democratic papers,
and some of the Whig papers also, in the South
ern7 States. This ungracious and ungrateful ac
tion is chiefly confined to the Administration par
ty, who go for the attainment of power and the
enjoyment of the " loaves and fishes.". . - ; I
It is well known that the New York Tribune
pours out its daily denunciations against the
orderj on account of its pro-slavery proclivity.
It is also known that all papers follow in this lead
who belong to the ancient line of the TVhig and
Democratic parties. Yet, with these things in
view which may be seen and known by all who
desire to see and know recreant Southerners,
impelled by the desire of office, betray they inter
ests of their section, desecrate all patriotic emo
tions and become " co-workers with those of the
free States who have for years, strained every
nerve and called out every effort In aid for our
destruction !
We were reminded of these facts by seeing, a
few days ago, a paper called the Fredonia Censor,
published in the State of New York. This paper
is quite as severe and denunciatory in speaking
the truth, iu regard to the objects of the Organi
zation, as the Standard and all in its lead are ia
speaking fatsely of it. It may be that the latter
do not known the facts. But this is a poor ex
cuse, because it is in their power to know them'
and they will not do it, for fear it might affect the
interests of party. So all th.it is dear to the
South may go by the board, ro that parly is sus
tained ! i
The paper above named has a long article on
the tubject of the Organization, from which we
make a few extracts :
" It will be an easy matter to cslablish the pro
slavery character of the movement from the out
givings of their own most prominent organs, were
other evidence wanting; but we will first call at
tention to the proofs as developed in its organiza
tion, and political action thus far.
" In the first place it is evident, from the au
thoritative statements thus far promolgated re
specting its objects, that it must become subservi
ent to the designs of slavery. It is proclaimed
that it is to become a great ' National party,'
farmed upon the basis of opposition to foreign in
fluence, and which is to ignore all 'sectional' is
sues, of a nature to produce division in its ranks,
or divert attention from the paramount object of
its creation. The issues between freedom and
slavery are considered ' sectional,' and of course
have no place in its platform. The discussion of
such topics are prohibited in its Councils, as in
imical to the harmony and unity of action which
must prevail. Of course the South can desire
nothing more favorable than this."
To understand the following, which is a part of
the same article, the reader will observe that
Grfely, of the Tribune, has given the name of
Hindoo to the American Organization :
" In our own State its movements are princi
pally c ntrollcd by men who were adherents and
office-holders of the Fillmore Administration, in
conjunction with Nebraska Democrats. James
W. Barker, the President of the Grand Council of
. r. , . -i - .j i- ii X" . - i (i : I
tne ctate, fina, u is saj,ii, oi mo auonai ouiien
.also, is a Silver Gray ione of the members of the
VId .New York Cotton Committee. The same is
true of Ulimann, the late candidate of the order
for Governor. The members of the order who
remained true to its behests in the Legislature,
labored to seenre the election of a Nebraska Dem
ocrat for Speaker, in opposition to an unexcep
tionable anti-Nebraska Whig. The Silver Gray
organs of tiie Fillmore Administration, which la
bored incessantly iu behalf of the fugitive slave
law, and to put down the free soil sentfment of
the North, are now. so far as we know, without
exception, d-evoted organs of the Hindoo party,
and the Albany Register, formerly the leading
Silver Gray oraan of the State, has now become
the official Hindoo organ. All of these papers la
bored with might and main, so long as they re
mained professedly Whig, to prevent the Whig
party from allying itself with the Anti-Nebraska
sentiment of the State, and to exclude from its
platform resolutions in favor of the re-establishment
of the Missouri compromise or agaftist the
admission of new Slave States. The acceptance
by the Whig candidates, of the Anti-Nebraska
nominations, afforded them the excuse for throw
ing themselves iuto the Know Nothing movement.
There they have continued,- and are foremost in
upholding the degrading conscience tramels, and
advocating the exclusion of the qnestien of slave
ry in the organization of the order."
We consider this matter conclusive to the point
and so will every man consider it, who is really
desirous that truth may prevail, which can only
prevail to the advantdge of the South and the se
curity of the American Constitution. '
It is true that many have joined the order in
Massachusetts, who arc described, by the Cam
mercial Advertiser, as follows : -
" In a State so given over to abolitionism as
Massachusetts, the recruits which have swelled
the ranks of the Knew Nothings have, of course,
come into the new party tinctured with the fanati
cism which characterizes the anti-slavery ultra
ists. In becoming Know Nothings, they did not
entirely divest themselves of that fanatical and
ultraistic turn of thinking, which is as mischie
vous in practice as it is contemptible in the eye of
reason."
Wc will go no farther it,to this subject, for the
present, than to present the following truthful ex
position from the LeruisttUe Journal:
" Whatever sins the mass of the Know Nothing
party Of the North may have to answer for, here
or hereafter, Abolitionism is not one of them.
Undoubtedly there are Abolitionists among them,
and undoubtedly, in some few localities, the abo
litionists predominate among them; but take the
whole of the Kcow Nothing party of the North
together, awl it is sounder' at heart, sounder in
principle, and sounder in action, upon tie great
S'avery issues, than any other party in that section
has ever been knoirn la he. I's strong efforts to na
tionalize itself, by sinking the Slavery agitation,
so as to be able to harmonise with the Know A"
tiingism of the SouthKhace been and still continue
to be very great, and the degree of its success is
cheering to the entire patriotism of the nation. . If
the slavery agitation is destined ever to be allayed,
that mighty woric.U telainly- to be accomplished by
ichal is coiled the Asierican party, which, if tee
are correctly informed,, now requires of all its
members a solemn obligation- to adhere to the Con
stitution and the Union, in any and every emer
gency that may arise."
A KISS FOR A BLOW.
It is said that Gen. Wilson, of Massachusetts,
whoso conscience is so sorely troubled ou the sub
ject of slavery, makes his living by selling bro
gans for Southern slaves! However, if Southern
men choose to patronize Massachusetts -wares,
and kiss the hand that smites them, they have no
right U complain.
A SINGULAR MUSICAL FACT.
Hverj orchestra contains at least two musicians
with mustaches, one with spectacles, three with
bald hads, and one very modest man in a white
cravat, who, from the force of circumstances, yoo
wall observe, plays on brass instrument.
REMOVAL. 0? JUDGE LORING.
It may be thought 'hat too much is said about
the immolated judge. But a transaction which
is a scandal to legislation and a disgrace to the
age, should be widely noted, that the world abroad
may kuow that the American people do not sanc
tion the Outrage, and that they have intelligence
enough to appreciate its enormities.
The National Intelligencer of Thursday says:
" la copying the annexed remarks from the Even
ing Post on the removal of J udge Loring, it is
due to that journal to say that, considering its
uniform and uncompromising hostility to the fu
gitive slave law, its condemnation of the proceed
ings of the Massachusetts Legislature does as
much honor to the candor of the paper as the
force of its reasoning docs to its ability :
" Wo say frankly that we have never approved
of the removal of" Judge Loring by the Massa
chusetts Legislature. He was not displaced for
misconduct or incompetency in his office as a
judge. Neither his intt-gnty, nor his learuins, nor
his capacity have been in question. Hus otlence
was that he acted as a United States Commission
er under the fugitive slave law of 1850, and re
manded an escaped slave to his master. He shares
the views which Webster and Professor Stuait, of
Andover, inculcated, and whieh, about the time
of the passage of that law, it was the fashion in
Massachusetts to preach from the pulpit. Accor
ding to those views it was a patriotic duty to co
operate in enforcing the law and restoring the
runaways to those who claimed them. Such no-
tions are now old-fashioned in Massachusetts;
but Judge Loring .seems not to have renounced
them with the same facility that others have done
when it became certain that they were no longer
popular.
" We should certainlv have thought better of
Judge Loring if he had refused to have had any
thing to do with the execution- of that infamous
law. It did not, however, belong to the Legisla
ture to punish him fcr the part he took. All le
gislation of a viudictive nature is wrong. It is
not the province of the Legislature to punish ; its
duty is to enact laws, and leave the punishments
to the civil magistrates. If Judge Lonng had
committed an act which the community disap
proved, but which no law had defined as a crime
or attached to it any penalty, it was the easiest
thing in the world to restrain him from repeating
the offence. The Judges of the State Courts
might have been prohibited from acting under the
fugitive slave law, and there the matter would
have ended.
" The removal of a judge because he happens
not to agree with a majority of the Legislature in
lus interpretation of the Constitution or his views
of official duty is a most dangerous precedent.
A Whig Legislature may find a Democrat on the
bench, and insist upon displacing him ; a Demo
cratic Legislature may discover that a judge is
unsound in regard to the doctrine of internal im
provements, or some other dogma of their creed,
and vote for taking away his office. A Know
Nothing Legislature may remove a judge because
he i3 against repealing the naturalization laws.
There will be no limit to the caprice of Legisla
tures; there will be no possible security for the
independence of the judges. The Legislature will
erect itself into a general avenger of all political
heresies.
" The Southern journals complain bitterly, but
they should remember that it was they who pro
voked these proceedings. It was the wanton vio
lation of their old compacts with the North which
has raised the spirit shown in the removal of
Judge Loring. Every day vindicates the truth of
the prediction made, when the Missouri compro
mise was rejiealed, that the measure would do
more to put strife between the North and South
than any thing which had ever happened iu our
history."
The Troy Whig remarks pertinently of the re
moval of Judge Loring :
" Judicial officers are sometimes arraigned for
non-performance of duty, but this is the first in
stance on record, we believe, where a Judge is
sought to be virtually impeached for having con
fessedly performed his duty, strictly to the letter,
and nothing more. A bolder stroke at the inde
pendence nf the Judiciary was certainly never made
in any country or unuer any circumstances, buc-
cccd it may, but it will not injure Judge Loring ;
it will only disgrace Massachusetts." !
F03 THE COMMERCIAL.
HARD TIMES.
I have heard various causes nsvgncd, among
the merchants of this place, for the present pres
sure in money masters. Some accusing the banks
for the stringency, in refusing discounts for the
relief of the merchants; and -on the. other hand,
the banks accusing the merchants of buying too
lagely; others blaming the large purchases of
produce for shipment.' These are all evil in their
way, but thftre is a gr.-ater existing, which must
be reformed before business can be done hern
with any thing like ease or comfort , and it hont
depending so much upon banks fo- relief when
' Hard Times" beset ns.. I aliud.; to the unlimit
ed credit business done here by our merchants
as things are at present, the customer think it
sufficient honor to the merchant to buy goods of
l.im op a credit, to be paid for at his convenience,
without taking into consideration the ncce-ssitii s
of the merchant at nil, and the merchants them
selves allow this state of things to exist ; whereas
the credit system should be placed on the other
footing ; customers are Ihe ones who are benefit
ted Ly credit, and should look upon it in its right
light, expecting to pay for goods bought in that
way at some time within reason. Let the merch
ants of W ilmington resolve to sell goods on short
lime to have their books settled np once in six
months,- and t he tronbles will be obviated at once
Some say this rule cannot be established now.
It can very easily, if all will resolve upon it, and
I will venture to say that both customer and mer
chant wi'.l le better off by it. The customer will
then only buy what he can pay for at the time
specified, nd the meichajit wilt be enabled by
certain collections to meet his notes without clam
oring at the banks for relief.
There is not a merchant in Wilmington, to-day,
but could pay his debts if he could collect what
is due htm, and but few but that have accounts
on their books of from one to three years stand
ing As long as this is the case they must look to
other sources to meet their debts, and failing in
other sources, they arc cramped, and their credit
ruined abroad.
I have stated my views ?n a crude way, only ho
ping that some one moc comctcnt will take up
the matter, and present the thing propely to the
community. MERCHANT.

THE CANONS OF CONTROVERSY.
As the weather will soon be warm, would it not
ba well for Editors to put in practice some of the
"canoes of controversy," to as to avoid onneces
sary excitement and danger 1 If so, you might do
tberu a seiviee by inserting in the Commercial
the following, which ire taken from a standard
work on logic. Indeed, I have thought that a fre
quent recurrence to these elementary rules might
bo of service to Editors ond disputants, in all sea
sons, for too many cither forget them or seem to
them more honored in the breach than in the
performance.", I kDow of no per which more
uniformly illustrates the correctness and beauty
of these rules than the National Intelligencer.
Rule 1st. The terms in which the question m
debate is expressed, and the precise point at is
sue should be so clearly defined, that there could
be no misunderstanding respecting them.
2nd. TJje parties should mutually consider
each other as standing on a footing of equality in
respect to the subject in debate. Each should re
gard the other as possessing equal talents, know
ledge and desire for truth with himself; and that
it is possible, therefore, that .he may be in the
wrong, and bis adversary in the right.
3rd. All expressions, which are unmeaning, or
without effect in regard to the subject ia debate,
should be strictly avoided.
4th ; Personal reflections on an adversary should
in no instance be indulged.
6th. No one has a right to accuse his adversa
ry of indirect motives.
6th. The conteqnences of any doctrine are not
to be charged on him, who maintains it, unless be
expressly avows them. -
7th. As trath, and not victory, is the object of
controversy, whatever proofs may be advanced on
either side, should be examined with fairness and
candor, and any attempt to ensnare an adversary
ly tho arts of sophistry, or to lessen the force of
his reasoning, by wit, cavilling, or ridicule, ia a
violation of the rules of honorable controversy.
It is hardly to be expected that these roles will
always be strictly complied with, but an approxir
mation to them is possible, and would doubtless
greatly conduce to the canses of truth, j-istiee.

ARREST OF A PICKPOCKET.
Boston, May 12. About half-past five o'clock
yesterday afternoon, officers Dunn and Lynch, of
the second police station, arrested a young man
who gave his name as Augustus Crawford, for
picking pockets. The fellow was observed at thsi
Worcester depot, on the arrival of the five o'clock
train, to be very busy apparently in looking after
baggage, but for good reasons the officers sus
pected his real purpose was to look after fat pocket-books.
They observed his movements chJsely,
and finally detected him with his hand in a lady's
pocket, and arrested him before he could with
draw his hand. The lady was Mrs. Sarah Jane
Ward, who with Mrs Severance, had just arrived
in the city. Mrs. S. stated to the officers that the
fellow had previously attempted to abstract het
purse from her pocket. . Crawford, who was very
well dressed, and with any extent of assurance;
became very indignant that t'.ie officers should
dare charge him with such aii offence. He was
taken to the station house, when, finding that in
dignation was not exactly available, he pretended
to bo very much grieved, arid wept like a love
siak school girl; this did not effect the "hard
hearted '.officers, ami he was sent to jail. The
dodge is a neiv one, and is qu:te ingenious.
The operator is well-dressed, wears a cloak or
a thin outside garment having two pockets one,
however, like the Irishman's well, the bottom of
which has fallen out, so that while to the careless
observer, the thief appears to stand with his
hands thrust into his pockets, his digits in the
bottomless pocket at work with the personal prop
erty of his victim.
About five o'clock, as a lady was passins
through Post-office avenue, a young man thrust
his hand into her pocket, seized her purse and
ran. Tho act was seen by a by stander, who pur
sued the thief so closely that the latter dropped
the purse and effected his escape. It is supposed
that Crawford was the man who committed the
act. He is from Philadelphia, and is an adroit
pick-pocket so say the police. Lately quite a
number of persons have been robbed of various
amounts, and several of these ofleiices are now
charged upon Crawford. He will be brought be
fore the Police Court to-day. Chronicle.

A PROFANE ONE.
Corporal Trim's comrades swore terribly in
Flanders, but Henry A. Wise is swearing more
terribly iu irgiina. buch a rampant, tearing, i
raving, thunderous, fuligetious candidate never
was and never will be. Notwithstanding Bob
Acres's assertion that "damns have had their
day," we perceive that Mr. Wise is strictly con
servative, and sticks to our' time honored and
most venerable imprecations. His principal oath
is that which has given our English friend. a very
strong nickname, (Mods. G. D.,) mid he raps it
out on every occasion with wrathful fluency.
While he is blowing up the brethren of the mystic
tie for administering unlawful oaths, he is contin
ually taking them himself, and his fiercest and
finest speeches -.all end like affidavits When he
denounces the knights of the new order as "god
less,' we suppose be means that they do not know
how to swear with propriety and elegance, the
adjective being applied rather to their co nversa
tion than to their principles. If curses, like chick
ens, do come home to roost, Mr. Wise had lietter
make extensive pi epilations ia Lis perch depart-,
nicnt; and he ought to do this before hand, as
poles will be a very disagreeable word after elec
tion. We do not know how extensive Mr. Wise s
repertory of blasphemous expressions may be,
but we think he had lietter be less prodigal and
more prudent, if he desires to do justice to the
subject at the conclusion of the contest. It will re
quire very tall shearing to express his feelings
then. :
FIRE RIOT.
Baltimore, May 14. During the alarm of fire
about ten o'clock on Friday- night, caused by the
burning of barrels on Catswbrth street near Per
kins' Sprins, a fracas occurred, which resulted in
the wounding of three or four fireman by pistols
fired. It seems that whilst the New Market and
Mount Vernon companies were passing along Bid
die street, near Pennsylvania avenue, a quarrel
arose and a fight ensued. One man named John
Doyle, a member of the New Market, received
five shots in his thighs, two of which were extrac
ted by Dr. Dalrymple. He was afterwards con
veyed to the Infirmary, where we yesterday as
certained that he was improving, although there
are three balls remaining in him. Three others
were also injured by the discharge of pistols, but
whether or not their injuries are of a serious na
ture we have been unable to learn. We also un
derstand that in the melee the lower part of the
ear of one of the firemen was bitten off. The
United Fire Company, as a company, was in no
wise connected with the fight. Clipper.
GROSS OUTRAGE.
An infamous outrage was committed yesterday
morning before daylight, the prepetratoi of which
we hope will be ferreted out, and have condign
punishment meted to them. Mr. Wm. Van Wagg
ner, better known as tho Poughkeepsie Black
smith, an eloquent temperance lecturer, on Satur
day last pitched his tent on the Bel-Air common,
between Forrest and East streets, near Cay street.
About half-past one o'clock iu the moruing, some
miscreants threw a pair of stockings, well satura
ted with camphenc,. and on fire, upon ItTe top of
the tent. The canvas at once took fire, and be
fore it could be extinguished, about one-fourth of
it was ruined by the flames. The Independent
Fire Company was promptly upon the spot, and
succeeded in extinguishing the flames. While
this was being done, some villains in the crowd
took advantage of the confusion, and w ith kuives
cut the canvas in about twenty places. This is a
bad way for the enemies of temperance to oppose
the spread of the temperance cause. Sun.

GOD HATH A VOICE.
BY ELIZA COOK.
God hath a voice that ever is heard
In the jeal of the thunder, the chirp of the bird;
It comes in the torrent, ail rapid and strong,
Iu the streamlet's soft gush as it ripples along.
It breathes iu the zephyr just kissing the bloom;
It lives in the rush if the sweeping simoon;
Let the hurricane whistle or warblers rejoice
What do they tell thee but God liath a voice 1
God hath a presence, and that ye may see
In the fold of the flower, the leaf of the tree;
In the sun of the noon-day, the star tf the night;
In the storm-cloud of darkness, the rainbow of
light.
In the waves of the ocean, tho farrows of land;
In the mountains of granite, the atom of sand;
Turn where ye may, from the sky to the sod,
Where can ye gaze that ye see not a God I
Joy to rne Ivvalid. Persons afflicted with
any of the diseases arising from a disordered liver,
stomach, nervous debility, dyspepsia or liver com
plaint, should try Perry Davis' Pain Killer. It
seldom fails to effect a cure hi a very short time.
May 17. 28-lt.
When death is at the door, the remedy which
would have saved life, if administered in time,
comes too late. Do nottrido with disease. Rely up
on it, that when the stomach will not digest food
when faininess and lassitude pervade the system
whe-ii the slee-p is disturbed, the appetite feeble, the
mind lethagic, the nerves unnaturally sensitive,
and the bead confused rely upon it, that when
these symptoms occur, the xwers of vitality are
fa:liii2,"and that, unless the mischief is promptly
checked, life nil be shortened, as well as rendered
miserable. Now we know from a mass of- te-sti
monv, greater than was ever before accumulated
in favor of one remedy, that Hooftand's German
Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. M. Jackson Philadel
phia, will immediately, abate, and, in the end,
entirely remove all these disorders as surely as a
mathematical process will solve a problem. Who,
-then, will endure the. agony, and the risk of life,
with health and safety w ftbin reach. 27-Ct.
