I [Prom the New York lieald.] The political horizon of the North is grnwhni dark, and portendn the swallowing e up of the Whig party in tl'm Aholition movement. The course of the majority of the Syracuse Convention Conmnittee is gen erally approved of throughout the North and bast, and especially in the State of New York has it been adopted as the true Wai r platform. In this city, where intere.t would prompt a diferent course, the reso. 1 Jutionst of that Convention have been de. nounced by the more considerate of the party; but, in the interior and Western sec. ions of the State, the principles put fort Ih and a'kocated by Villiam II. Seward are f nlorsed and republished as the only Whit creed. The press in those sections, withi two or three exceptions of minor charar- C ter, have taken up the cry, mid thrown the titi slavery standard to the hrcee. Thu Albhiny State Register and BJut1lo Com.. .nercial Advertiser are tIm -"r- haters of i - at.. ..--"" unte that have taken up the aunnletlo battle against the proceedinr of the Convention. The Albany Evenin, Journal was the first to prainclaim the cause of Seward, and the smalier prints iii the I interior have followed, and, with every issue, denounce all who do not endorse the ity of his principles. The late postmas t Aht Albany, L Benedict, has published a correspondence m the Kvening Journ;l, be t wcen the Postmaster General and hitmtself, and the Jlourtal has made an attack upon President Filmnore and his admiinitration, which cannot fail to make wider the already existing breach in the Vhig party. The 1 caise of the publication of the correspni deuce was because Mr. Benedict failed to obey the instructions of the head of the !)e parttnent, or left the whole business of the otnire to the care of an assistant, which re stilted in his removal, and the nppoineinnt of another in his stead. The Democratic pless are of cgnrse placed in the dilemma in which the Vhig party is placed; and, should the Freesoilers hol to the nonmina tiois made by the Democratic Convention, 11 their success is more than probabe. 9 ple of action, and the Boston Atlas strongly censures the Whig sereder, i'r the course they have pursued.

The Democratic press is generally qnict, and leaves the Whi party to absorb itself into abolition without an expression of opinion. At all of the late SMate and County Conventions (if the Whig a party inthe-Northern and Eastern States, it 1 eslavery question has been the chief sub e- et of commient, and they have nniversally I SIemnied the action of Conigress in thie w h~'~ ae Bpu~ r-and lFugi.

The anncxed suggestion from the Charleston Mercury is worthy of consider. tion. The rI eittmbers of Congress, who have just been elected, will not take their seats (should the union last) until December 1351, a year and two months from the time of their election.

[From the N. Y. Tribune.] "The Fugitive La.-Beau Brommel was once asked to indicate the best joke lie had ever heard in his life. After con sidering a minute, he said be thought it wao a bequest of five pounds left by a man in his will towards paying ofd' the British National Debt. "The Beau lived in one of the darker ages. lind he been blessed with the day. light of 1850, lie would have confessed that the passage of the Fugitive Slave bill (among others) expressly to 'settle the slave question,' was a joko entirely ahead of his. And the vehement assertion of Messrs. Duer, Bush, &c., at Syracuse, that the en tire slavery agitation, present and future, had been settled, quieted, put to sleep, by t hems measures, went even to a degree, be yond the other. It was carrying absurdity, I to the verge of the sublime. "How slavery agitation has been buried by the passimee, among others, of this fugi tive slave bilI, the telegraph and the jour nals already begin to show; though as yet I only a very few of the thousands of "fu- I gitives fron labor," in the free States have been reached for under it. Yet al ready Massachusetts is deeply agitated by the efTects of this bill, and our own State begins to be convulsed by it. Penn. sylvania, Ohio, Indiana, will soon be ablaze with it. Not many members of the House will henceforth be elected from the free States unpledged to its repeal; while any general or systematic attempt to enforce ;;a provisions will obviously be motby con certed evasion, if not by overt resistance. The law never can be enforced, even to the extent of returning to slavery, one tenth of the fugitive slaves now living in I the free States. It will be difficult to en. force i', at all fifty miles further cast or north, than this city ; and of the thousand to fifteen hundred fugitive slaves living in Massachusetts, we don't believe twenty could be re-enslaved without costing as I many lives." [From the Morning Star.] The Slave Law. We published the leading features of the Fugitive Slave Bill, while it was passing through Congress; but as it subsequently received some alterations and additions, we will recapitulate, in a concise form, some of is nest strmgent provisions. It provides that any person having the power of at. torney, may pursue and reclaim the party alleged to be a slave, either by procuring a warrant from a Judge or Conuissioner of the United States Court, or by arrest. ing him, where the same can be done with out process, and t king him before the Judge or Commissioner. Persons who ob struct tho arrest, or ihall rescue, directly or I indirectly,nrsail t14.slave to escaperare subjected to a fltf notexceeding 81,000, atnd imprisonmen t not exceding 6 mtonthis; atnd, in the event df escape), comnpelledi to forfeit, oni a civil p'rocess, 81000 as the va tue of theo slave. TPhe testimonty of any ailledged fugitive slave will not be admitted at any tria!l T1hiec law also repeals the! Iliabeas Corpus Act with regard to fugitive slaws. Accoring to it "the certificates of Judcges or Cousnmissioners are contclusive oif the right of the pirs:i in whose favor a warrant is ifrant.ed; to remuive a fugitive slaive to the Statei ur Territory front which he inay~ have ercaped; and prevent all iiio lestation~ hy 2. oy process issued biy any couirt, judg~e. mai~gisitrate, or any ot her per. son."
