THK HAlt'Y Tlnryjoy AnpwM 9, IW. MRmciiwiM PfwlllfleatfaMi OU TblM. It ia a peculiarity of tbe straight land and pbar isalcal of abolitionism tbay MTir aeem to a single daftct ia tbetr awn character. If tbeea are guilty of tbe of tba publl their, vices are hallowed by tba sanctity of their and they gently style them "inftrattles" of tbe deab which ought to be overlooked fat them, though deserving damnation in everybody the State of Massachusetts seta model of American Union-loving Patriotism, and wbea South Carolina nullified, tbe horror of Masaachtiaatts at the Iniquity of nullification exceeded tbat of all the other Statea of the vonfederacy combined. She impatient for tha federal government to hurl ita thunder bolta at the head of South Carolina, and annihilate tbat andadoua nullifying Commonwealth.

There are people even in tbe South, who, deceived by tbe hud of thia Pecksniff of the- Statea, fancy she ia all she heraelf, and are ready to admit the inferiority of the Sooth ia patriotism and public virtue to Massachusetts. A single glance at her biatory enough to dls. pel thin delusion, and reveal tbe State represented by Sumner and Wilson in her true colors. A nullification act stands at this moment npou her statute book, setting at defiance the Constitution and tbe Laws of the general governme nt, and this act she baa repeatedly refused to repeal. But nullification is no new thing in the history of On tha contrary, whenever exposed to temptation and trial, her boasted loyalty has uui formly given way like ice before the sun.

We shall cite some memorable illustrations of this fact. And the witness upon whose testimony we rely no less a person than John tjulncy Adams The Embargo Law of 180? caused great excitement in New England. The Patriotism and the Puree of that section then came into collision, and we shall see which gave way. A plaa was started fur a New England confederacy and dismemberment of the Union! John Quiacy Adams wrote a letter to Senator Oiles, of Virginia, in the fall of 1808, urging upon the Administration an immediate repeal of the Embargo, and the substi. lution of tt Non-Intercourse Act therefor, so convinced was he of the imminence of the danger of dismembcrmontl lie said: "Their object was, and had been for several years, the dissolution of the Union, establishmeat of a separate Confederation," which he affirmed tiat he knot "from unequivocal although not proveable in a court of law; and in cane of eicil tear, the aid of Great Britain to effect that purpose would as surely resorted to, as it would be indispensably necessary to design!" Mr.

Adams afterwards mskes known that State Nullification was in full blast and practical operation at that time in New England, without even Sovereign ceremony of a Ruilyfying and in the same sentence communicates unmistakable indicia of the purposed secession! He bays: people were constantly imtigated to resistance against the acquitted violations of it on the ground of its unconstitutionality assumed in the face of a solemn decision of the Federal Court! separation of the Union was openly stimulated in the public prints, and a Convention of delegates of the England States to meet at New jlacen, teas intended and Here is nullification with a vengeance I A design to dissolve the Union, and to set up a separate confederacy, and call in British bayonets against men who, when Massachusetts cried for deliverance fioci British bayonets, were the first to fly to her rescue I This testimony of John Quincy Adams, that old foemau of the Sonth, is additionally confirmed by the fact that Sir James H. Craig, the British Governor General of Canada, despatched a spy, John Heury, troin Quebec, in January through Vermont and New Hampshire to Boston, for the purpose of intriguing for the dismemberment of a country then at peace with Great Britain. The followlag extract from a letter of this spy to hU government, is recorded by a New England his tori an Should Congress venture to declare Wsr, the legislature of Massachusetts would give the tone to t'ie neighboring Matm, aud invite a Congress to be composed ot delegates from the Federal States, aud crect a Separate Government for their Common aud in a condition to make or receive proposals troin Great lirilain, when scarce any other aid would be necessary, than a few vessels of war from the Halifax station, to protect the towns from the little American Mary Ho was he said, not to make an imprrscion analagoua to the enthusiastic confidence of the ujijuihition, nor the and that animate the friends of an Alliance beticceit thenarttu.ru States and Ureal War with Great Britain followed the sword was drawn, and Massachusetts, recreant to her new ally as to her old, remained in the Union, as she does now, but paying no regard to the obligation" ot law. The manner in which the higher ia worked among her juries (those juries whom she wishes entrusted with the derision of fugitive cases,) is thus described by a historian of that period: juries, the basis of legal admin is'ration, BUT INDUCING THEM TO VIOLATE THE OK I.AW AMI TH MR JUDICIAL INTERPRETATION, BY VERDICTS ANNULLING the introduction of that system of Executive, Legislative and Judicial fate National encouraging their individ nal rtjtction; proclaiming repudiation of Federal loans and debts, by eminent Statesmen: Altogether it wns insurrection abuse of personal freedom and State soeireignty!" According to the same historian, the Puritan parsons bad the same itcbinjr then as now for in troduring politics into the pulpit: "State and individual animosity fortified them selves bv the denunciations of the licentious press and pulpit virulence, all urging violence, till the whole Kastern atmosphere burned with malignant d. fiance of Federal authority, end in vindication of English hostility! What nullification newspaper in South Carolina ever preached Disunion more boldly than a Dos.

ton journal in following paragraph? "To the cry of Disunion," says this Boston paper, "the plain and obvious answer is, that the States art olriady stparoud. The bond of union is bt.vieu by President Madison. As we are now n' ing on, we shall certainly be brought to irretrievsble ruin. The Convention cannot do a more popular act, not only in New Kugland, but throughout the Atlantic States, than to make a pkack for HIE GOOD ok thk whole!

The African Slave Trade correspon dent of the New York Daily Times, writing from Havana, under date of July says that nearly every steamer takes from that place to New York persons who are directly interested in the African trade, and who make contracts at the North for vessels and their outfit for the traffic. Within the last seven months not far from fifteen thousaud Africans have been landed illegally upon the Cuban coast, from Africa, in nearly equal proportions upon the north and south sides, and no csptures of any consequence have been made. Daring this summer, extensive arrangements have been made in all the available ship-building ports of the Union for the requirements of the trade for tho next twelve months. An Aekrat at Cake May Sunday after noon au affray, which produced considerable excitement, occurred at the Mount Vernon Hotel, Cape May. The Philadelphia Inquirer says It appears that several young men were seated in a room, and one of them drinking wine.

A letter was read from President Hartleii, revoking the charter of the Massachusetts Council on the ground of recreancy, and authorizing the Filliuoreites to form a new Council The Fillmore men hereupon withdrew and formed a nsw State Council. The Fremonters endorsed the nomination of Governor Gardner, aud adhered to the nomination of Fremont and Johnson. President Tuesday sent to the Senate a message accompanied by various ofticial dispatches, relative to the affairs of Kansas, in which it appears, in reply to a resolution of that body, no order was issued from the War Department to any military rflic.er in command in Kansas to disperse any unarmed meeting of people of those territories; or to prevent by miliary power any assemblage of Ihe people thereof The Secretary of War endorsed the letter of Col. Sumner, dated July 21,1856, reporting his return Leavenworth, with the fallowing: The communication of Col.

Sumner and the proclamation endorsed, indicates that cirenmstan ces not disclosed in previous reporta, existed to justify him in employing the military forces to disperae the assembly at Topeka.
