The news spread. Tli'e otiicial is attacked j?v ;
a mob of colored people, and 13 compelled to

and thence, hv a new escort, conducted to iln>

the respectable classes applaud. The news- '
papers are frantic with enthusiasm. A proela-:
roatioii is issued hv die President, derlaiing.
that tho law must be enforced, and n thousand
tongues reply that human legislation m st be :
postponed to the dictates of the conscience and
the instincts of nature. It is the extreme of
violence defended by the extreme of aiiti-soci,.!
doctrine. Well! you turn from the disastrous
columns, and, looking to the other side of the ;

leading men of all parties have met together to
consecrate the name which is in itself a symbol
of Union, and to proclaim the eternity of
the hero's works. Every form of strong ami
sensuous metaphor is enlisted to express the
strength, the vigor, the stability of the republic.

The commotions at Boston point umlouht"dly
to a real and abiding dangpr. but they do
not prove drat it is any closer at hand than it
was before. The tendency of the abolitionist
agitation to degenerate into a disunionist movement
has provoked aao.l of reaction in favot^/
of the fugitive slave law which, obnoxious
it is, has been enforced with unexpected readiness
in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, nun

froitiess, and the last failure took place under
the alarming circumstances which we have just
sketched, nut, as regards the popular feeliig
on the subject of slavery, there is a considerable
difference between. New .England and the free
States which are in immediate contact with slave
soil, or whi' h receive h certain propoition of
their immigrant population from the South.?
An arrest under the recent enactment seems to
strike the Mew fchiglnndors more ill the light
a foreign aggression than as legitimate, though
oppressive* interference of a domestic authority.)
There is much, indeed, iu the accounts we have
perused, which recalls and is illustrated bv our
own experience of tiie hist fo'nr mouths. 1'ufting
out of the question such exceptional i.-r i
tants as tliv Durliarn letter, we may asseit that
the no-popery agitation grew out of conditions
combinations exceedingly germane ti? the
source of the ferment* in Massachusetts. We
were all of us told from our infancy upwards,
that popery was |>ersoctihiig and ustiiping. The
religious education of Englishmen pre-suppo-es
^ 8uc.lt an article of belief. I?ut though an insig- j
nifiennt section of the community had ai ways
especially devoted itself to the cultivation of
anti-Romish sentiment, in the great mass of j
Englishmen it had become practically extinct I

colored their \icw of the cvcilasting

Just s , the New F.ngluttd populations have I
been brought up in conventional abhorrence of
negro slavery, against which the whole ee.ono- j
my of their society is a standing protest.? ;
Hitherto they have content j luted it from a dis. '
tance, through the oh-cure ami embarrassed '
medium of sectional controversies at Washing
ton, and they have been content to abandon its
permanent condemnation to the abolition societies.
The fugitive slave bill passes; an arrest
is effected in their streets--aml In! the accursed
thing is there in the midst of them. A first
cause has l>ee n damaged by the* excess ol" irritation
in which they have momentarily indulged;
and it would he vain to deny that their
turbulence contrasts very unfavorably with the j
dutiful, though reluctant, acquiescence of the |
Middle States, whose intercourse with the j
South has furnished a due Corrective to their
judgment on the matter.
There is little room for donht that the measures
which have convulseu the Boston populace
were expressly shaped to that end by their
authors. The recovery, under process, of a
slave from New England involves so much
trouble, vexation, and exiwme, that if isuwual|v

Mngli-'t distinction; hat Lexington is
down on the sore nnint in an instant, and, ilex
tetously commencing with calling his victim
an "Knglisb serf," lie proceed.-, to argue that a
member of the British I'm liuient who devotes
himself to sedition in America, must necessarily
have been paid by his government to bring
the Union into contempt. Perhaps this is a little
two bad. Mr. Thompson's pecuniary transactions
aie scrupulously routined to dealings
with oriental despots, and we believe that it
would be unfair to inter, from his connection
with the cabinets of Delhi and Sattaru, that he
is a stipendarv of Lord Paloio&ton's on mission.
We find it stated that he intends to remain a
little longer i:i \taeric.a, for the purpose of living

One of the str ingest infatuations of the day
is that which loads certain females to advocate
vvliat they are pleased to call "Woman's lights,*'
as though man, from very harshness, put stumbling
(docks in tiioir way to perferment, and j
would in no wise permit them to rise a hove the !
; degrading position of menials. .Nothing we
conceive, can he more humiliating to every j
high minded woman, than to see a large num. i
her of her sex petitioning the Logislalme (as
was recent I v the case in New- I'm*.) for the
light to \oie. These weak, disaffected creu- |
lures think the station allotted to them insigui
iicant and alicgeliier too degrading; forgetting,
| or rather not liiily appreciating, tiie extent of j
I their power when conforming to the position ac- ,
! know lodged to he the one for which they alone j
J are tilled. ;
I H hen a woman steps from her natural sphere, :
| all her loveliest attributes forsake her; her nat- j
; oral delicacy gives way to assumed strength, j
i followed by uiiseeiiiiogly boldness; and regard- i
| loss ol the laws ol nature aa?l the duties incom!
bent on her, sacrifices her hotter feelings to
i participate in the hold and determined design
i of man. ^Shc feels that in intellectual cap.iei
: ty-tilte is his equal, and therefore should possens j
. with him equal power; that the reins of (jovernnient
should not be held bv hi.a exclusively,!
j nor should she l)e deprived the privilege of enter- j
! iii'r into all his mental contests, and rather than '
1 * '
remain subordinate, she raises a crv of "man's !
j tyranny" and Hoods the market with works on i
' "woman's ligl-.ts and duties," the "social posi- ;
' tion of woman," and the like, in which the so- 1
cial subordination of her sex is condemned '
and principles advanced, which, if received, '
would nbrog, te the laws ot nature.
i In Europe, writers of this class are common t
I especially in (Jerinuny and France, and we too !
are not without our "Jvmmh d'txprti" who
prove themselves equal to man, lose no oppor- \
tunity of appearing in public, to the discredit of)
themselves and tlrs ridiculu of their cause.
Every true and highminded woman knows ;
that the station assigned her is one that should j
he her pride and ornament. She who would
desert her trust to participate in scenes for
which man alone is lit:ed, would bo faithless to
all, and in i.o way qualified to make those !
; around her happy, or to participate in the jo\s '
of a well regulated hottSehohl. Such aa one'
should know that while man has to buffet tin' 1
storms oi the world, and is daily racked with '
cares that ought never to penetrate her tender
breast, to her belongs all the minor duties of life !
and that it can be no unimportant vocation to '
the happiness of loved ones, nor unenviable po- I
silion to become the centre of a lumpy ;iti?i u:ii I

PRESIDENT'S PROCLAMATION.
Hound Island and Paper Blckkades.
Washington, April 5i(>.
"The papers oflhis morning contains a proclamation
from the ('resident warning all |>ersons
against embarking in a Cuba invasion.
Tin* President believes that military preparations
are now on loot tor an expedition
(principally composed of forcigu'-rs) against
Cuba. The proclamation announces the penalties
to which nil persons engaging in such
expeditions will he obnoxious, as well as their
forfeiture of all claims to the protection of the
Government. The authorities civil and military,
are ordered to use all precaution to arrest
a I persons engaged in such an expedition, and
good citizens arc urged to discountenance such
schemes." /
Thus it will be seen that the President, barked
by the I.ion-hearted and "god-like" Secretswy of
State, guards with sacred jealousy the possibility
of the annexation of any Territory, v? Inch is likely
to arid strength to the South. The Government
