Disunion or Anti-Slavery, 5 A few days ago, the New York Tribune, while making some calm, cool, and collected remarks on tbe momentous character of the present crisis, deliberately announced its purpose and doctrine to be, disunion or anti-slavery—that between the two alternatives, 1t would prefer disumon to slavery or slavery extension. This bold, studied, and candid avowal is consistent with the charec- ter of that journal, and developes perfectly the un- compromising spirit of the clique of respectable fanatics, and supporters of all the isms of the day, by which it is surrounded. Dusunion or anti-slavery—that is the cry! A disruption of this glorious Umon, or the carrying out, to the fullest extent, of all the principles and purposes of the anti-slavery fanatics, who have been agitating the North, and the whole confederacy, for the last twenty years ? We are not surprised that the coterie of politi- ciuns, philosophers, infidels, religionists, and men of thought and imagination, of all shades and colors of opinion, who circulate around tha; peper, have at last come out openly, and declared their purposes to the world at the present moment, and during the present excitement in Washing- ton and threughout the country. For months and years past, this coterie of French, German, English, and American philosophers, believing in all the isms and wiras of the day, have been en- gaged in the same purpose, and are now adding ouly thear digtinct avowal to the long list of dog- mas with which they have afflicted this metropo- lis and the North. Fouriensm, atheism, com- munity of property, socialism—every specics of wild and extravegant thought and doctrine, has been advocated in that quarter—and why? Under the mavk of aiding, and forwarding, and enlightening the mass of the people, and of bettering and im- proving the condition of the working man end the mechanies of the country! These are the false colors which they have lung out, to lure the honest and industrious portion of the community, and through them the politicians, the manufacta- rers, and the religious portion of society. Now, taking up their lust ism, their anti-slavery purposes, what would be its effect on those classes of the population of the North? We need not look very lar to find a solution of this important ques” tion. Read the history of the British West In- dies, Ananti-slavery egitation shook England for a Guarter of a century, carried all its points im the Porhement of that country, and the result was the emancipation of the blacks in the West Indies, and the rapid ruin aad destruction both of the colored race and of those islands, with all the interests in England that are connected with their prosperity, If this anti-slavery agitation, set on foot by the | coterie of the Tribwae, and held up as better even than the Union itself, shall go on, a few years will see the Southern States reduced by civil con- flicts, by intestine wars and insurrections, to the condition of the British West’ Indies, thereby in- flicting on the free States of the North, and all our interests, from those of the working man up to the merchant and shipowner, a degree of destruction, of which no parallel can be furnished in any re- vulsion that has ever occurred in this land. Aati- slavery or disunion! h principles inculeated city, and backed by the | by a leading journal in th merchants, traders, and property owners of the » will soon tell a fatal tale on their own in, and on every branch and avenue of trade erprive.

The inde- pendent whigs of this magnificent State are deter- mined to revolt trom the imperial sway of Thurlow, and have been preparing, for the last six months, to bring out a new whig journal at Albany, ready for the campaign of Waterloo. This has brought Thurlow to his bearings, and made him propose, in a very pathetic note, to sell out his whole establish- ment to the rebellious crew, who seem to be led on with the Vice President of the United States at their head, and John A. Colher at their tail. The manifesto of Thurlow, in the present crisis of the whig party, and the transitory nature of his power, 18 most amusing and very philosophical. It sounds very much like the confession of an old peniient under the gallows; it has all the meekness, all the confusion of ideas, all the confidence of sal- vation, which mark the productions of that inter- esting class of human depravity. In this, his confession, he goes over his whole political life of sim and sorrow for thirty years past, but brings forward only those points which will tell in the sale of his journal, now in the market. Thurlow acknowledges himself to have been a revolutionist, to have set up the whug party in his district, but he forgets to tell on what capital, viz., on that of anti-masonry. But he omits to relate some highly curious things about Jack Straw shaving off dead men’s whiskers, to make them available at the polls. Thurlow, how- ever, now wants to retire, and advertises his pro- perty in the Journal for sale to the best bidder, the velue to be determined by printers and editors in some of the Atlantic cities, who, though they may be good judges of such kind of property in their own neighborhood, cannot, by any means, be qual- ‘fied to decide upon the value of a newspaper in Albany. The truth 1s, Thurlow’s day is past and gone— his reign 1s over, and it is now of no consequence to any newspaper in Albany, whether he dies or lives, or sells or keeps to his post in that place He has been a vile, unscrupulous, unprincipled editor, of the worst order, debasing the eharacter of the whig party for the last twenty years, and putting himeelf on a level with the most vulgar of the anti-masens, antt-renters, and all the other po- litical isms of the day. If the projectors of the new whig paper are acquainted with their business, they will start a clean newspaper altogether. They can qemolish Thurlow, and his paper, and his power, in the course of eighteen month, instead of buy. ing him out. We can show the way. Stveviar Divorce Cases.—Soctar, Transi- tions.—Some frend of Mr. Forrest has sent us an article from a Philadelphia paper, asking, as an intimate personal friend of that great actor, that we should abstain from prejudging his remarkable divorce ce or from indulging in any harsh thoughts or words. So far as relates to Mr. For- rest himeelf, the writer professes to know all the secrets of this singular case, and‘to have his heart warmed to an extraordinary extent in favor of Forrest, and the grievances he has suffered, which ke will prove when the evidence reaches the Le- gislature of Pennsylvania and the public mind. We are periectly willing to refrain from any hasty decision in this case; but we think the lady whose character and reputation are involved, is equally entitled to sympathy, forbearance and suspension of unkind judgment, as much as the other party. According to recent developements, many singular divorce cases have made their appearance before the same Pennsylvania Legislature—a queer con- cern it is—all of them connected with persons and names occupying @ social position superior to the common order, and commanding more than ordi- nary notice and sympathy om the part of the public. We allude to the Butler case, to the case of the Middletons, to what has been said of the Wethe- yells, including this case of Forrest—all of them hailing from Penneylvania, and all more or less before the Pennsylvania Courts or Legislature. The conjunction of these singular events, with the rumors of others to come, in fashionable life» both East and Weet, produces strange impressions upon the contemplative mind, and almost leads to the conc cholera or small pox, coming at certain intervals, and in such a quantity as to amount to an epide- mic. In the fashionable life of this country, these conjugal disorders seem to have increased, of late years, to a very remarkable and startling extent. Yet we doubt whether, in many of these cases, there are any real grounds on which to proceed to the eeveral extremes sought after by the parties pressing for such a result to their complaints, During the last few years, in certain fashionable circles, a greater freedom of manners has been cultivated in our principal cities, principally by those who have travelied in Europe. These have brought back with them many of the clegancies wich many of the levities of social life across the water, in exchange for their own loss of principles and purity of thought. In fact, we have now fash- Jonable journals, both French and English, es tablished in this great metropolis, for the express purpose of advocating a more easy style of social life, and greater liberty and freedom of manners, founded on no principle of any kind, but left en- sion that divorce isa disease like the | tirely to the direction of what they call *‘ good taste.” In these channels of fashionable intelli- gence, those theatrical manners and modes of ex- istence prevailing in France and Italy, are brought iw those places.

The descriptions given by the sulory Watson G. Haynes, of the ecenes on board the ill- tated Somers, a few years ago, which resulted in the execution cf poor Spencer, were, we have been informed, the most thrilling, graphic and terrible, that have ever been heard in the Taber. The actors in thove awful scenes—those who were co unjustly executed, as well as those who perpetrated the execution—are now, we be- lieve, gone to another world, and will have to eccount for their deeds elsewhere. The recollee- tion of thoee scenes, end the excitement growing out of the trials to which they gave rise, caa never be oblicerated from the minds of those who lw tered to and heard them Another curious statement of another of the | speakers, affected toa remarkable extent the repu- tetion for benevolence whieh hitherto a distia. guished character and divine of Philadelphia has mainteined before the public. We certainly are in favor of diserpline, both in the Army and in the Novy—in civil and social life—when founded on right principles, and directed to hamane purposes. Dot it must be admutted that the present state of crc pline in the Nevy is anything but creditable titber to the government, to the serviee, to the age, or te that spirit which ought to prevail among a { republican and Christian people Tue Recent Custom Hovge Fravo —Talman, who commutted the recent frauds on the Custom House, has escaped, but he has left a few facts and a eertain flavor behind him, bearing very badly on the management of the Custom House under its present regime. We have received several articles discussing the mode ia which these frauds were committed, and they concur in the general belief that they were principally effected throagh the bad management of business ia that estab- lishment. The truth is, the more we see, and the more that is developed of the management of affairs in the Custom House, under the present Collector and his system, the more we are satisfied the government committed a great error in assigaiog to Mr. Maxwell the management of that establish- ment, which is unsuited to his experience, his profession, or his previous life. Mr. Maxwell should have been made District Attorney of the United States, in place of Prescott Hall. In that capacity he would be a valuable legal officer— prompt and strict in his duty, according to the uimoet verge of the letter and spirit of the law. In his present position of Collector, he not only obstructs businese, makes bad appointments, and throws difficulties in the way of the system, but he gives the whole complexion and the sinuosities which are now suitable for a District Attorney conducting a troubleome case in the Tombs, and starting all sorts of legal points in the prosecution of erminals. The Custom House, under its present manage- ment, is conducted like a huge Court of Sessions, where the merchants are considered criminals, wanting to cheat the government every day, and where the officers are allowed every latitude, and no questions asked, uatil they are off with the black mail in their pockets. Apropos, Mr. Maxwell also still continues in office a number of sinecu- rists, who are eating out the revenue of the govern- ment, without performing any service, Has M. M. Noah yet been removed, who has been enjoy- ing, for several years, a snug salary, for doing nothing, or little or nothing ? Tue Latest InTevuicence rRom CENTRAL Awenica.— Our reagers will find in another columa some interesting news from Central America, con- firming the surrender of Tigre Island by the Bri- tish. Mr. Chatfield, the British Charge, it appears, is nom est inventus, and it 1s supposed that either he has been recalled by his government, or has abdicated his post in consequence of his acts con- nected with Tigre Island not having been counte- nanced by the British Admiral in those seas. It is supposed, however, that he really had instructions from home to make the seizure. The insurrection in Guatemala, it appears, still continues. ‘The Opera Campaigns—Maretzek’s Compii- mentary Benefit To-Night. An important and interesting event is to take place tonight, at the Astor Place Opera House. The com- plimentary benefit of Mr. Max Maretsek will bring to- Sether all the fashionable society of the metropolis. A review of the past operatic campaignsis fall of brilliant points, flashes of animation, lights and shadows, and winds up with something like « desirable realization of the ideal structure in which so many have been en- gaged, and in which several persons have notoriously and signally failed. About four years ago, after the frequent intercommunication with the European world bad become no longer a matter of wondering admira- tion, the luxury, ease, and wealth of New York began to sigh forall the possible delights and enjoyments of faehionable life in the old countries of the earth. Act- ing upon this general feeling, not then ready to accept | anything short of the measure of enjoyment to be ob- tained abroad, several capitalists, with the sealous Mr. Morgan at their head, conceived the ides of preparing the great headquarters of beauty and feshion, and soon dieplayed to the public, in the very heart of the fash- fonable section of the city, the Astor Place Opera Houre. Mr. Morgan had profited by the downfall of | Mr. Falmo, who had sspired te become ® bustling Na- polecn in the realms of song. He had seen the artisti- cal cook, at an expense of eighty to a hundred thou- sand dolisvs, marabel his forces out of the curious and motley materials to be gathered from the Italian resi- dents of the metropolis, and had seen how utterly in- competent be was to serve up the renived and delicate | treats of the great masters of music. The worthy, | though misguided, Palmo, after a few skirmishes in the | field, wisely retired to the Elba of the kitchen, there to receive the homage which he had always exacted in | that epbere from hie numerous admirers. Mr Morgen and bis coadjutors strove to gain ground, in vain, fora considerable period. The whole thing was one series of transitions, ill directed, confused, and uncertain. The small manegerial captains, Sanquirico and Tatti, well | meaping and amiable, were wholly unfitted to | with the adverse tendency of circumstances. ‘eny i edvanced—were repulsed—rallied and advanced, and were again repuleed, till entize defeat overwhelmed them, betore their attempt ata campsigu was com- pleted. In the next movement, it was thought, there would be success beyond all question. The brother of Mr. Fry, « composer of considerable merit and talent, was | brought forward, backed by funds, and hopes were centred upon! him as @ general equal to all emer. gencies, Miserable dirappointment soon manifested itself in every quarter, Mr. Fry bed po well defined purpose, rushed madly on an eccentric course, purhed his way into difficulties, instead of over and around them, quarrelied with the prees, disagreed with the public, kicked up s row with his artists, lost « large eum of money, amd ingloriously retired from the field of action. At this stage, the very singular ele- ments of tarblonable society were in an unsettled es tothe future, However, the crisis was eo peculiar, the cecasion demanded so much nerve, assistance aod sympathy, that we resolved to throw as much of our Ipfiuence as possible Into the tide of battle, for the purpose cf deciding the question as to the possibility of a victory. The matare of that influence irs matter of histery. We joined with Mr. Morgan in his at-— tempte to censolidate his power for rome useful practical end, end the next campeico presented s mor encouraging erpect. The Opera committee mow saw the necessity of ing of their white kids, and of putting their hands rgetically to work, while their beads were rupplie’ | with wholerome counsels. They looked about for some one calculated te play the part of Nepoleon im earnest — seme one who could mould the various coteries of fashionable life into something less anomalous than thore amusing divisions, reserved distinctions, and a | hydra headed exerescenecs, which faintly Cesignate the yet unwritten and unpletared phases of society. Such a person they found in Max Mareteek, skilled in murieal eclenee, master of sll the modern fashionable | languages, and presisely suited to bring together, into one arrey of beauty, wealth, iwtelligence, tarte, wit, . | refinement, and apparent cordiality of purpose the he: terogeneous macs of materials at bis command. This wae Ot yarpose of his “ mission.” He was, also, to *urmount the difficulties incident to the jealousy of mo usieal rivals, to harmonize the spirits of the vocalists, maleand female, who, in every such care, and under the most rhilful treatment, are ® souroe of trouble and perplexity.

TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE, | | 3% Tre Latest Movements in the Country. Mr, Stavley’s remarkable epeech yesterday will not surprise these who have noticed Mr. Foote’s teply to Mr. Calhoun. It belongs to the same political category. It is a part and parcel of the attempt at the gradual absorption of political capital for future purposes. This would be clearly understood, if it were a fixed fact, as yet it may be, that Mr. Webster will take higher Southern ground than many Southern mea, for in that €vent, the prospects of Mr. Webster for a national bonor would be neither small nor unimportant. Disunion would seem to be taking an active shape in the State of Massachusetts, but it is only in the shape of active petitions. One-third of the Senate were in favor of laying the petitions on the table. The folly of certain classes of New Eng- land people is past comprehension.
