ssana We freely giro place to an account of tbe doings of the Political Abolitionists' National Convention at Buffalo, from the pen of a member of that Convention. VVe are not at all afraid to let our readers hear what the Political Parties an? tagonist to ours have to Bay for themselves, and should probably have published these letters with? out remark, us is our custom in giving corres? pondents' accounts of public movements, but for tho personal allusion at tlie closo of A Travel? er's second letter. In reference to this, we will barely observe that by the time get ready to turn Political Abolitionist we the present champions of that party will have got along a great way ahead of it, and become No-Govern- I mcnt men, denying the right of any man to com- raand or restrain unothrr, and pronouncing all laws usurpation and all taxes oppression, as their fathers in Abolition, Garrison, CoU'aiSj S. Pos? ter, now do. We think tho position of these latter decidedly more consistent and tenable than that of their Liberty Party' brethren.

Assured? ly, when wo become convinced that a part of the Constitution is null and void from its in? herent depravity and iniquity, and ought not to be obeyed but defied, we shall not nominate and advocate the election of candidates for President and Vico President under that instrument, who, when chosen, must swear to support and give ef? fect to that very whole of it, as it is written, and not as they might choose to manglo or amputate it. At prcpent, believing that nothing is to be gained but much lost to the causo even of Emancipation by giving counte? nance to a Political Abolition party, proscriptive of Slaveholders, while all our great National In? terests would bo surrendered to their worst ene? mies, and every consideration of Public Faith, Public Morals, and Public Prosperity, thrown overboard, we Bland opposed to this 4 Liberty Party but, if over wc do undertake to act po? litically for the overthrow of Slavery, we shall commence by openly and manfully urging a Dis? solution of the Union, and use the power im? parted to US by the Slave States in a perfidious warfare on their Institutions. Wo arc for Good Faith lirst in all things. (LT The- friends of John C. Caxhoun will hold their first Meeting in our City this afternoon, at o'clock.

This will ena'ole the curious to see who and bow many they are. und what pluck they have. i The Herald of Saturday, in the midst of a jumblo of fact and falsehood in regard to a Na? tional Pank, says of the late one, "In 1828 the Bank entered the vortex of politics, which was large aud overshadowing an institution cannot exist in a country like this where party politics run high, without being upon by ambitious lawyers for their own advancement." The assertion here made is a distinct, deliber? ate so; for the Money Ed? itor of tho Herald is by no means so ignorant of American politics as his employer. The Hank had nothing to do with the election of 1828, and its Directors were of both Political parties, several of thorn leading Jackson men. Neither party at tho time made any attack upon or complaint of the Bank neither professed to be hostile to it or seek itH destruction.

It was after Jackson's inauguration in IS'JD, that ho first attempted to dictuto a change of the Presidency of the Branch Bank at Portsmouth, N. H. which was resisted, and this gave rise to a deadly hostility and war upon his part. Tho Hank being thus doomed to destruction, endeavored to arrest the wisely, perhaps, since it failed to effect its object: but it is hard work for most of us to lie still and let tho life be peaceably pounded out of us. As to politics and politicians, a is very shy ot them, unless self-defence compels it to seek their aid and largo Bank is quite asapt to keep clear of them as a small one.

Why do not the Bank oi England ond that of France mix in politics and get ruined every few years if the natural tendency of such institutions renders such a result inevitable Judge Hammond replies in the last New World' Amdrosk SrKNCKR's strictures on his Sketches of Political Parties in tho State of New-York, with decided pertinence and ability. A perusal of this reply has modified but not re? versed our opinion that Judge Spencer was un? fairly treated in Mr. Hammond's book. Most certainly, some of Mr. inferences with rc- srard to Judge Spencer's conduct in certain cases imputed to tho latter unworthy and selfish mo.

tives without necessity. Hut the historian proves that on many points Judge S. misconceived him in his defence and has attributed to him accusa tinns or imputations where he had not intended thorn. Beside, he manifests a disposition to cor? rect fully anv injustice ho may have done. This controversy is on both sides able and interesting, and wo commend it to the attention of all who take an interest in the way, we re? gret to hear an intimation that Mr.

Hammond contemplates a suit at law for damage done him in Judge Spencer's fevorc but not unprovoked re- joinder. We hope he will think better of This Otsogo fashion of suing for libel the opposite party in newspaper controversy is a very bad one, and ought not to bo rendered profitable by verdicts carrying costs. If it is, all other litiga? tion must stand bark, and county expenses be in. creased enormously, Return of He v. Dr.

Dewey. Rev. Oryillf. Dewey yesterday morning de? livered his first Discourse sincr- Id? return from Europe, at the Church of the Messiah in Broad? way. The Church was densely filled, pews, gal? leries and aisle? and the were of a high I ly interesting character.

After the opening Prayer, preceded by an Anthem, the choir sang the following Hymn, written for the occasion: 0 Kotrj vrithiu whose hand ocean Thoi at whose word tbe awaies arid dies! at whose amile tbe throes ol pain depart, And health arid glad.T-ss fill the bouudmg We ve? bless tbe that, near. him who leads thy worship Watched, rtiwgtbeaed.bealed, and.oVr the stormy main, Haa brought him to these hallowed courts ajaim" The Discourse itself was most elegantly elo? quent and was delivered with all the grace and dignity with which Dr. Dewey's congregation, under his ministrations, have been so long famil? iar. It had reference chiefly to the interesting occasion, to the return of their Pastor to his friends and brethren, after an absence of two years, and to the meditations which would natural! grow out of such a position. The text from which he spoke was the last verse of tho 26th Psalm My foot standeth in an even place; lu the congregations will I bless the Lord-" The lirsl portion of the verso wa? applied liter? ally, and with peculiar felicity, to the exchange of the unstable deep for the firm change only to be properly estimated by those who have had the fortune to make latter part was devoted to the considerations which mado it pe? culiarly appropriate to offer tltanksgiving, on this occasion, in the the good? ness of God in bringing Pastor and People again together after so long an absence, in preserving so many of them in health und prosperity, and in leaving for their encouragement and guidance the memories and words of those whose places in the Church wcro vacant.

In returning from a two years' residence in Europe Dr. Dewet raid he had no hesitation in declaring his deliberate and deep conviction that the people of his native land were far better off than those of any nation of the Old World. He said this with reference not to the few who are born to inalienable wealth, but to the gross millions of both worlds: and theso in the United States, he said, were far better housed, better clothed, better fed, better educated, better moraled, und he only wished he could say better mannercd than those of any other nation in the world. The great question of the age, he said, in the nations of Europe, is that concerning the capacity of tho people for self-government and the progress of the United States is watched, with reference to this question, with the closest atten- i tion and the deepest interest. And he said it was usual, throughout all the European nations, much as we might be surprised thereat, to speak of the experiment of self-government as having failed here and therefore feasible no where.

This conviction he thought had been produced by tho exaggerated accounts of mobs, murders, and out? rageous and unpunished violations of law and order which always reach foreign journals, by untrue representations of our social habits, by false statements concerning the prevalence of a spirit of Repudiation, by the violence of our party contests, and the numerous instances of disorder and unprincipled conduct which a malicious vigil? ance can always detect. Ho said the occasion was not a proper one for speaking at length upon this subject; but lie thought that the estimate of American character abroad, founded upon these and other matters, demanded a more full, ear? nest, serious and satisfactory reply to such asper? sions titan had yet been made. In the course of his discourse. Dr. Dewey spoke at pome length and with groat earnestness and ability of the true character, dignity and pur? pose of tho Christian Ministry.

Tn coming back among his people, he came to enter with zeal and energy into the great brotherhood of human em ploymncts, in some of which they were all enga? ged. He claimed for the ministry the dignity ol a tun ful, as well as a noble, calling. The utility of putting new thoughts reviving old truths in the mind, of arousing to life and conscious energy the powers of that inner world where the kingly Conscience sits enthroned," of waking the spirit to a sense of its duties and utility, he thought, could be greater than this. He protest? ed, therefore, against tho feeling which would put asunder the Pastor and his People as having no common common duties of daily life, which they were each in their respective po? sitions seeking to discharge. lie spoke somewhat at length and with great feeling of several emi? nent ministers of tlie Unitarian Church who, since his departure, had been removed by death from their labors, and said he should embrace tlie opportunity offered by the approaching anniversa? ry of his decease, to speak fully concerning the character of the departed Dr.

Channi.no, of tho peculiar Mission of his life, and the manner in which it had been fulfilled. The Sermon was heard with the deepest inter? est by the large congregation which the occasion had assembled. Dr. Deweyhealth is decidedly better, and he expressed tho Hope that it was per? manently restored. "mi ILj The Whigs of St.

BrjTFALp, Aug.31. I closed ray letter to you last night while the Rev.

Mr. was in the midst of an inter? esting rp'-eeh. I subjoin the resolution upon which he spoke, and which, after full discussion, was unanimously adopted by acclamation. Tbe best speech of the evening was from Rev. Samuel R.

a full-blooded colored man, who the pastor of a white church in one of the interior counties of this State. His matter and manner were alike appropriate and excellent, and the au? dience gave the best evidence of Lheir interest in his remarks by their profound attention while he spoke and their tumultuous approbation at tlie close of his remarks. lie was followed in a very neat address by Professor Hudson of Ohio, after which the resolution to which I have referred was adopted. It is follows W1ir.r*as, The Constitution of these United States is a Se? ries of covenants, or contracts betweun the peo pie of United States, each with all and all with each; and, Whereas, it is a principle, of universal morality, that moral laws of the Creator are par.tni">unt to human laws; or, in the-laagnageof an Apostle, that'' we ought to obey tatter than men;" aud, Whereas, the third of th--1 second section of the fourth article ci Constitution of the United w'k-u coustraed as providing for the surrender of a fugitive such a basi-," in that it is a contract to rob a man a natural Lis natural to his own liberty; and therefore, absolutely void. Therefore, That we give it rib be dis? tinctly understood, by this nation and" the world, that, as abolitionists, considering that of cause lirs in its and our hope for it in f'ur conformity to the or tJoo and our respect for the Rights of we owe it to the S.ver-iiru Ruler of the Universe, is aprool of oarallegiance to Him.

in all our civil relations ana offi? ces, n-private citizens, or as public functionaries sworn to support the Constitution of die Coiled States, to regard and to treat the third clause of the fourth arricla that instrument, whenever appli-d to the case of a fugitive slate, a- utterly null and void, and consequently, as forming nopartof the Constitution of the United States, whenever we aru called upon, or sworn, to support it. Upon the passage of this resolution the Con? vention adjourned to meet again at 9 o'clock this morning. The session of this forenoon has been an in? teresting one. and was in part devoted to ballot? ing for candidates for tho Presidency and Vice Presidency. The choice was made upon the first balloting, and, what may seem more singular to many, that choice was unanimous for Presidi nt, JAMES G.

BIRNEY; of Michigan: for Vice President. TIH J.MAS MORRIS of Ohio. The vote was taken by States, each State represented casting a vote equal to its Electoral College. States balloted the whole number of votes taken was 1-I-. The was received with three cheers, long, loud, and full of enthusiasm.

Order being restored, thanksgiving to Almighty God for the harmony of views which had charac? terized the Convention, and for the desirable re suit to which it had arrived, was returned in a most fervent feeling manner by Rev. John IvKErof Ohio. G. W. Clare, the popular vocal? ist, followed in an original Liberty Song, written for the occasion by Elizur Wright, Esq.

the popular translator of the Fables of La Fontaine. The music was also original, and was written at the stand, after the vote had been declared, by Mr- Clark himself, who is a composer as well as a singer. I have, never witnessed a higher en? thusiasm even in the political gatherings of 1840, though the enthusiasm was of a different charac? should say, of a higher and holier character. Tho afternoon session is now in progress, and thus far has been principally devoted to the pas? sage of resolutions in continuation of tho scries introduced on yesterday, three of which I tran? scribed for you in my letter of last evening. I would copy the remainder, so far as they have been adopted, but they would occupy so much of your columns, that.

cannot suppose that you would wish to publish them. Tho question of Finance came up upon a mo? tion to raise for defraying the expenses of tlie Convention, including the publication of its proceedings, and more than $350 were contribu? ted on tho spot. Rev. Mr. Nevin of Ohio, and others, addressed the meeting, after a ses? sion of lour hours, the meeting adjourned to four o'clock, evening.

Evening Ipencd with prayer by Rev. S. EI. Ward, Samuel Lewis, of Ohio in the Chair. A large number of resolutions were adopted without discussion.

Rev. Owen Love joy, of Illinois, the brother of the martyr of Lib? erty, gave a most interesting account of the ope? ration of the oppressive la ws of Illinois, and of his own prosecution for having fed, clothed and com? forted an old woman of sixty years, escaped from slavery. The penalty for this offence is a lino of or six months' imprisonment, at the discre? tion of the making righteousness a crime! Mr. Lovcjoy's remarks were listened to with intense interest, and often responded to with the most enthusiastic when he described his kneeling by the side of his mur? dered brother, and before Cod ami in the presence of the dead, dedicating his life to Lhc cause of the enslaved and come weal or wo, come life or death, he was determined, by the help of Cud, fulfil his vow. No speech has been delivered be? fore tlie Convention th.it has created so deep and general an impression as Mr.

Lovcjoy's, and at its close the speaker was greeted with a series of the most tumultuous cheers from the thousands who listened to him. As last to-night the Croat Tent is compactly filled with ladies and i not titan a thousand I ladies arc in attendance, probably many more. Henry P. Stanton, of Boston, was the I next speaker, und described in the most felicitioos 1 manner the great uprising of the people of Mas I sachusctts, occasioned by the attempt to drag Lattmer into slavery. He also traced the im? poverishing influence of slavery upon the interests of instituted a comparison be? tween Massachusetts ami Virginia, in their agvi I cuiiure.

commerce, and manufactures. For tho I most part he treated the subject with great seri i ousness, though at times Iiis remarks were hu morons, and called forth bursts of the most hcar i ty laughter. Uhcr addresses were delivered, but i my letter is already too long to permit my speak ing of them particularly. They were listened to till the small'" hours of tho night with an attcn tion that 'indicated the deep interest which was I felt, either in the speakers or tho subjects which they discussed, or, perhaps, in both. The influence of this Convention will undoubt i edly be greater than cither Whigs or Democrats will bo willing to wait, friend be? fore you speak or thmk contemptuously of tins young giant, tho Liberty Party.

It appears that Sentmauat has not abandoned all intention of raising a hos? tile llag in Mexico.

He has gone to Yucatan for the purpose of levying new forces, eualde him to meet Ampudia. He ii enlisting soldiers with threat activity, and as toon at his numbers respectable, will return to Tobasco and recommence hostilities. Job Jacksonville Illinoian, of tlie 19th inst. saya "A gentleman of this town, who has jnst returned from a visit to Cartilage, states that considerable excitement ex? ists in Hancock county, on account of a gnus outrage com? mitted by holy Joe Smith, upon the collector ofthat county. It seem-; that Jo- had taken offence at the collector on ac? count of tlie- manner in which be had discharged hu duty, iu reference to some of the prophet's Iota Nauvoo and, du? ring a recent visit of the collector to that city, he was at tacked and cruelly beaten by loe iu presence of never ,1 hun? dred of his faithlul.

The testimony of Friday mainly to the comparison of the trsrks with the shoes of Carter's horse, and adds little to what was known before. Eliza Case, whi lived about a quarter of a mile from the scene of the murder, teatiliej that ou that night at a after 9 o'clock she heard the sound of a wagon crossing the creek, apparently near place. Presently it stopped, and iu about twenty heard the halloo of a ipaick and a single crv apparently one of distress. Georg? Duckworth stated that the day after murder ha saw a man who looked lik, "eter Parke go to Carter, who was ploughing ia the field They talked together 13 or 20 mituites, Unharnessed thr horses and rods off together. He saw Carter re torn the same day, and asked if any thine; was tlie matter.

He there was; rascal had been murdering Cast ncr, and John and Xiar, and one of the children." He then went is all the testimony of any consr quence that was given.

ET The Danville, Va. Reporter states that scv I oral letters have recently been broken open and money taken ut on the route between Richmond and that place. It hints that the villany is perpet, by some of the Postmasters, and a statement in the hroniele that a letter mailed at Richmond, enclosing a check for to a gentleman sr that place, reached him with the seal broken and ci.irk stolen, seems to -ender the suspicion not wholly groundless.
