efforts to dissolve the Union is an extract from the speech of J Van Buren at the Democratic Convention of Vermont held at Burlington It is also to be to detection of a distinguished custom statesman who had been a uniform earnest and open advocate of the Proviso until the of March 1850 u hen he announced that it was unnecessary to apply it to Mew and Utah as ho had ered that it was the will of God that slavery should not go As Mr Webster voted to insert this provision in the Oregon as he hid claimed it in a state convention in Massachusetts in 1848 as his as he had made several earnest and vehement speeches he alight have fulfilled the duties of his mission with honor to himself and with signal advantage to the country ilo would haw called around him the friends of the Union without regard to carty and have extinguished forever nil thoughts of its dissolution but he chose to take the opposite courso to turn his free inhabitants Now York the abuses of the F Slave law a wise just

territory the ordinance of Mr Jefferson was necessary to abolish it Slavery existed in the territory of Iowa it had to be abolished by law The safe course then is to arrest its extension by law in the only mode which has thus far proved effectual Cheers Then after reviewing Fugitive Slave law he proceeds as follows Having thus considered ibe present aspects of the slavery question let us briefly consult as to the present duties of the friends of freedom la my judgment they ought to unite in uncompromising hostility to the present national tration The action of tho head of that administration has been adverse to them when they had every right to count upon his friendship Mr by his public pledges by the acts of his past life by his well understood principles and ses all this seems to ma as little like martyrdom as he is like my idea of a moult Laughter Bat I agree if his ambition is to be President of the States there is below or above all thesa superficial a deep settled public which places him a hopeless distance from that object of general pursuit Even the southern politicians who are so industrious and so successful in warping the opinions arid action of northern men would catechise him unpleasantly if he solicited their suffrages To be strong at the somh a northern politician must be strong at home They would aak him can you If a Whig state assails you and the convention throw him overboard dare the people elect If a defeated Whig candidate for Congress in the strongest Whig district of prefers charges of corruption carry r of Congress in that death It is certain that whenever he was laid upon his bed with he began straightway to talk aloud of his approaching dissolution and bored his friends and neighbors with querulous complaints Once when sick an old who had traveled with him and aided him in despoiling the ians in evory part of the state called to see him This friend comprehended the anxiously to their restoration to nature of his complaint at once and re- mouse applause and laughter These are questions that should be wi red by those who look to him as the of freedom My hopes re.-.t on tho democratic I look power in the nation are

un- misunderstanding in the domestic establishment of Mr Augustus J penter who resides in the southwestern section of this city Miss Letitia who is a lady not more than fifteen had eed one of those admirable books called Complete which contained patterns or models of letters tu suit all conceivable cases and circum- stances Wishing as she to im- prove herself in the elegant ment of Miss Letitia mined by way of practice to copy several models of vy composition and address them to different persons of htr acquaintance She found in the book a formula of a letter From a young lady to her married friend This she scribed on a fine sheet of gilt-edge letter paper and directed it to Mrs Carpenter with whom she is on terms of intimacy The experimental epistle happened un- fortunately to contain the following sage am sorry to hear that your un- worthy husband has formed an ment for a young woman of very character in the neighborhood I you will let him understand that you have discovered his baseness Be sure and no- him that a lady of such virtuous ns yours can by no means such licentious and criminal conduct This letter was delivered on Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock At 1 P M on the

to gain sion of tho offensive weapon and in tho struggle for this object the lady was thrust into the street While she hurried to the police with her complaint Mr arpenter with the unlucky epistle in hand to the residence of Miss Clark to demand on what authority she had made a statement so to hia Ilia excitement astonished the young lady who with innocent simplicity gave him an account of the whole metier staling that she had copied the letter word for word without attending to the sense of it and supposed it must be all right of course if it was according to the book Mr Carpenter wiped the smut of the sauce pan from his face followed his wife to the police office satisfied her with an explanation and then the returned arm in arm to place of residence A new Platform An aspirant for a
