ABOLITION AND OREGON.
W e have heretofore extracted from
leading New York jou.rnal, proofs that
the movement of Mr. Adams and his tail
is lutkeJ upon hy his own political friends
as only a new phase of Ahoittio-or
rather it is Aholitition developing. its tilti
mate design and real character. 3Mr.
Adams. .. ho for long years has as n pub
lic man had but one predomirieti idea
hatred to the South and war tipon slavery,
now takes the. lead for war-measures
against Entgland, and Ihrgets every thing
else for the sake of Oregon. Mr. Gid
dings follows and supports hint. and at
the same time declares in languige ot
course and brutal exultation, thaut war
with England wvill revenge The q.arrel t
Abolition witlh the Suuth, and for that
reason he goes for it. This is the positiun
of the Abolition leaders.
The N. Y. Express nhbich is as little
given to sympattize %with us as any of its
whole Whig brotherhood, spetaks in the
rollowing language.
" We make light of these grave sports
in the logomachic ring at Washington, for
we see, or think we see, in the turn the
debate is taking, atid the breeze that ir
springing up, the starlight of peace,-of
a contnced, prolonged and happy peare.
As we have been for sonm time anticipa
tingi this Oregon question is becoming
pretty much of an Abolition question, and
if it does become so, it is very certain nt
warlike steps can be taken in the Senate
of the Unitea States, unless the honor of
the country calls for them. The moment
Mr. Calhoun showed his hiand, and Mr.
Addms tonk ground against him, fiollwed
byso distinguished an Abolitionist vs Mr.
iddings, there was a pretty clear indics
:id6'that' fro m Virginia to.. Teras there
k no 2arfijrdiV-rnnn W'A
do I-'tilin -whei Mr. Adams' and Mr.
qiddings' speeches get among the people
f the South, the Oregon fever will cool
f 'as fast as hot water cools when the
hermtoitterer is in the neighborhood of
zero. On such epeeches as Mr. Giddings'
the South never reasons, buit feels, and we
therefore set down his and Mr. :Adam
speeches as the great pcace speeches of
he session. Mr. Calhoun, throgh them,
ill unite nearly all the slaveholding
States, nov. fifteen in number, for peace ;
and unity among them, or nit approxima
ion to it, is ntow soverteigtnty in this Un
on."

We haweread the Report of the President ofthe
ank oft thec State of South Carolinaa, idade in
prsuance of a call fromt the Senate. It wotald
fford u, taleasuare to paublisha this Report. but
its great leangth precludes. It is sufuicient to
ay. thaat it Is highaly satisfactorily, with regard
o thte cndaitiona of thue Bank. and shows clearly,
the imapolicy and fully of exposing Id the public
the names of the defaulters to thec Bank, and the
unas which they respectively owe. The Sen.1
te wath great nananaimnity accepted thte report,.
ad discharged ihe President of tlae Institution
from anay irthter anaswer to the call made biy
e resolutiona, anad ardeted an extra numher of
theeport to hie printed. We can only make
the following extract from the report of the
President.
->Of the defauilters to the Bank, some are
doubtless more or less i-riminal, while more
are themselves victims of their own or others
misfortunaes, tar perhlaps even of the dishtonesty
of others. Soame have faithafully surrendered
all their properly, anad paid as far as they had
a cent. Matny are dead; others have remno
ved ; hbut most of them are alive, or htave dei
scerdants or relatives, ad whose feelings
would he deeply woutnded by thaese exposnres.
Who can safely, azt this late day, say wvho nf all
these arc guilty, and who innocent? The
sense of all, especially comnmetcial comumui-n
ties, is againast sah proceedings, and all the
sympathies of hutman nature will take sides
with the weak and opprcssed - and if it be
done. thec regaad and good teillof great num
bers of its friends anad customers will be turned
into hatred anal haostility to y our Bank; ;at will
bccome rmire odious than a pittblic execution
er,tasmuchas it sacrifices the dead and the
inocetnt. No mani whose name is in its books
will ever feel scafe', for no one is so strong in
wealth or so high itt credit, that visitatioans of
Providence or the failtare of those he trusts
may not rob him oh amtple means to pay his,
debts, and leave hais namec to be exposed an the
catalogne. The customers of banks are al
ways sensitive and easilf ;alarmed. an~d they
will not feil to regard thtis as an entering wedge
-the beginning of a series of exposures which
will ultimately embrace every' other transaction
in your institution, aud -annahilate evea pro
tction to their lausiness wvhich is provat kin.
