rT . EVENING es states WASHINGTON CITY: FRIDAY..... September 26, 1886, STAR. 107" Advertisements should be handed in by 12 o'clock, m., otherwise they may not appear wit!) the next day SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Union, in allusion to the comments of the Intellegencer upon the letter of Mr. Jenk- ins, of Geurgia, thinks Mr Jenkivs has good reason for rezarding Mr Fillmore asin favor of the restoration of the Missouri Compromise, and that the editors of the Intelligencer have placed themselves in the dilemma of support- ing a candidate whose position is sanctioned by neither prudence nor patriotism. Accord- ing to the Unton’s understanding, there is no foundation for the assumption of the Jntel/s- gencer that Mr. Bushanan and Mr. Fillmore agree in regarding the repeal of the Missouri restriction as unwise and unfortunate. The Union says: “© We bave no information to the effect that Mr. Buchanan was at any time opposed to the clause engrafted upon the Kansas-Nebraska act for t xpress repeal of the Missouri res- triction ; but if he was, we are very sure his opposition was not to the repeal of that res- triction. We know that many democrats pre- ferred the — Kansas-Nebraska bili as introduced by Mr. Douglas. Whilst that bill contained no clause repealing inexpressterms the Missouri restriction, it contained in specific language the non-intervention principle of the Comprcmise of 1850, which necersarily super weded the Missouri restriction. The legsl effect of the original bill was precisely the same with that of the bill as passed after inserting the clause — repealing the Missouri res- triction. e preferred the original bill, and objected to the amendment in the shape in which it was first offered—not because we were opposed to the repeal, but because the original bill, by necessary implication. effected its repeal. and did it by applying to the Nebraska ‘Territory the same principle, in the same lan guage, which had been applied by the Com- romise of 1350 to the Territories of Utah and lew Mexico.” TarningtoMr Fillmore’s position the Waion says: “It will be clearly seen that there is a marked difference between him and Mr Buch- nan, not only as to the repeal of the Missouri Compromise, but as to the true import of the Compromise of 1850. Until the recent speeches of Mr. Fillmore at Albany and Rochester, he was suppoeed to have approved the Compro- mise oF 1350 as containing principles which furnished a fixed and permanent rule for the settlement of the slavery question in regard to all Territories. In bis message to Congress im December, 1451, be said expressly that he regarded the compromise measures of 1850 as “‘a@ final settlement of the question.”’ But he now says that he did not mean that they were a final settlement as to any other Territories than those of Utah and NewMexico In other words, that the principle of these measures was not intended to be the rule for any other Territory except that by the Utah and New Mex The Intelligencer, in answer to the enquiry of a subscriber in Pennsylvania ‘‘ whether, when the Fugitive Slave law was before the Senate in the year 1850, Mr. Clay was in favor of granting the privilege of trial by jury to the slave at the place where arrested,’’ refers to the record, and gives Mr. Clay's position in his own words. +028 PERSONAL. +++ Senator Mason, of Va., Hon.

A Stern Rebue.—That the patience and forbearance of the Southern people have been sorely tried by the impertinent interference in their domestic concerns, no reasonable man will venture to deny. In vain have the Northern fanaties been warned of the conse- quences which may result from their inter- meddling, but this seems but to serve as a stimulus to further aggressions. Of late, the Southern newspapers have furnished us with accounts of abolition incendiaries, who in va- rious ways have sought to inflame the uncon- trollable passions of the slaves and incite to wide-spread massacre. From Mobile, Ala- bama, and Livingston, Georgia, and frcm other Southern cities, recently, such dangerous char- acters have been properly exorcised, like #0 many “spirits of darkness.” And in Virginia and Maryland, among othor States, the ‘‘un- derground railroad” has been put into opera- tion, and the owners of slaves by this means deprived of that species of property which is recognized and protected by law. We should be unreasonable to expect the South to remain passive under such treat- ment, especially as it does not interfere with the institutions and statutes of the North, and, according to the terms of the federal compact, is content that the State governments shall revolve, each in its own appropriate sphere. Would that the North could be induced to pause in ite reckless career against the South, as alone by non-interference in the affairs of the latter can the Union be preserved intact, and the great principles for which it was form- ed promoted and perpetuated. Governor Winston, of Alabama, recently, administered to Governor Gardner, a severe rebake, saying “When you shall have amended your own conduct, your precepts to others may be more respected. Doubtless your want of faithful- ness to the obligations of the compact of the Union finds much relief in abuse of President Pierce, for attem ting to have the laws en- forced and the rights maintained. He may find consolation, however, under the crushing weight of your censure, in the hopo that, when your fanaticism shall have accomplished its traitorous purpose, bis name shall be enrolled with those of the mighty dead who have been willing to sacrifice self for the good of the country. when the acts of those now in au- thority in your State, shall only be remem- bered to be execrated.”’ And the Governor saya in another part of his reply to Gov. Gardner: “ The people of Alabama can properly ap- preciate your professions of kinduess and your desire for ‘a return of a fraternal spirit and good will,’ while assailing their institutions and maligning their character. Alabama has at no time, in any manner, interfered with the affuirs of the people of Massachusetts by le- gislative resolves or otherwise With our civil er moral obligations you have no concern; and futare interference with either, though accom. apes with expressions of brotherly love, will resented as unprovoked insuit.’* Are northern fanatics so deaf that they will not hear; their hearts so hard that they can not feel’ Their appreciation of the Union so indifferent that they will zvsist on addition- tionally weakening the ties which unite the sovereign States’? Kansas —Dicagreeable as must be the in- telligence to the Republicans, whose fatten- ing food is the biood of the slain in Kansas, there is a general impression among candid and sane men, that the disorders in that Territory are in a fair way of being quieted, owing to the firmness of the Administration, through Governor Geary and General Smith, in whose discretion and abilities the strongest confidence is reposed. The St. Louis Kepubd/ican states that three hundred and fifty citizens of Missouri had re- cently given up their military organization and returned to that State, in obedience to the proclamation of Governor Geary, and that General Lane had fled from Lawrence with the remainder of his men and was in Ne- braska. Thus the unauthorized forces un both sides of the question which now agitates Kan- sas are being withdrawn, and the inhabitants will soon be left to the enjoyment of their so- cial pursuits. The Repudlican adds: “ Itis very gratifying to hear these tidings, and to know that the violence which has so long prevailed in Kavsas is atanend (Gov. Geary began right, and a like firm purpose to reserve law and order, and to panish all of fenders against it, will soon make life and property as secure in Kanses as in any State of the Union.” The President's Visit to New Hampshire. The military of several of the principal cities are making arrangements to receive the Pres- ident of the United States, or his return to New Hampshire, and to extend to him the compliment of an escort; and in this connee- tion even political editors who dissent from the policy of his administration, speak in ap” probation of the contemplated public demon- strations in his honor. But as he intends to proceed direct to Concord, by the usual mode of travel, we presume that no opportunity will be afforded for his reception in the mode Suggested. As the object of his trip is one of @ private character merely, and but fora week or two, it is not to be presumed that he will care to be detained upon the way. From our long residence in Washington, we are aware of the fact that no previous Presi. dent, for the last twenty-five years, has en- joyed less recréation from the affairs of State than President Pierce. His devotion to the duties of his resposible station, and his close business habits, are well known at the na- tional metropolis.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE It appears to be the common opinion in Paris that the French and English Cabinets are at issue on several points, theugh no one supposes that the differences can essentially affect the alliance The investment of General 0’ Donnell with the grand cordon of the Legion of Honor, and the marked attention paid to Count Morney by the rial takes of Kussia, are not likely to lease the English government. The English ‘abinet take the same side ss Turkey and Austria on the question of settling the Danu- bian Principalities Tho French government is still undecided on this point The Momiteur ssys that on the 8th inst , it being the anniversary of the capture of Se bastopol, the Emperor invited the 35th regi- ment of the line, which is stationed at Biarritz, toadinner. The privates and subaltern offi- cers were entertained in front ef the barri- cades by the Emperor and Empress, who car- ried in her arms the Imperial Prince. ‘The officers of the regiment afterwards dined with their Majesties.

Thalberg, the Pianist, at the last accounts, was about to leave Paris for this country. His Piano has preceded him. Fifty-four Democratic mass meetings are called in Ohio, between the 19th of September and 13th of October . A Hamilton (Canada) paper says ‘‘ Horace Greeley has been nominated Governor of New York, on the Democratic interests.’’ Since the nomination of John A. King for Governor, the Fillmore Club in Jamaica, Mr. King’s residence, has broken up, and the members gé for the Republican ticket In view of the *‘Straight Whigs’’ having wandered from their fold to the Know Noth- ings, it is suggested that they should now be termed the *' Strayed Whigs.”’ The Boston Courier (Fillmore paper) urges a cordial reception of the President, with- out regard to party, should he pass through thatcity. A charter election was held in the town of Washington, Daviess county, Ind., a few days ago, resulting in the success of the entire Democratic ticket. Hon. Edson B. Olds, Democrat, of Ohio, has accepted a challenge from Governor Cieve- land, Free Soiler, of Connecticut, to canvass the latter State with him until the day of election. The Boston Courier says that the Committee having in charge the petition to the Governor of that State, for an extra session of the Leg islature, bave withdrawn the memorial for the present, in consideration of the compara- tive degree of quiet lately restored to the Territory of Kansas. An anti-slavery convention was held in New Bedford, Mass , on Sunday last, at which Wm. Wells Brown and Charles tL. RKemond (negroes! were the principal speakers. In the evening, a discussion arose as to the propriety of voting at the ensuing Presidential election Beecher (Rev. Rifle B.) is represented to have said ina stump speech at Hudson, N. Y , the other day, that if Fremont could not be elected he preferred the dissolution of the Union. As Beecher despises one who fires a rifle without hitting his man, it is presamed he will take care to hit the mark when he sets about the dissolution of the Union. The Charleston (S C ) Evening News says : No man should go to Washington committed to or predetermined upon either the Union or Disunion, Consolidation or Secession. His intent should be to do the best he could under the circumstances — to do it prudently, but de- cisively, and to hold himself ready to meet the emergency. whether or not it involves na- tional disruption or individual danger.
