The following erticle, fromthe Lvening Journal ‘of the 2th inst, exhibits a sample of his vexation, rage, which he was subjected :— Suareny Paste ix New Yous —The Journal af Com merce, Exyrese, and Herald are making pauie fer the benefit of slavery in the city of New York.

But iteannot now, with the same impu- nity, mark for proscription and raia, merchants who refure to leod themselver to this seheme of slavery Agitation. We are somewhat of the opinion that the editor of thie journal, and the patriotic men who ere identi- fied with the movement to extract Thurlow Weed’s ability to infuse poison into the minds of the people, will survive his puny efforts to injure them, and | cere but little for all the venomous abuse which he may squirt at them through his clenched teeth. Abuse from such a quarter, is perfectly natural and entirely consistent with the known character of Weed, and his associate conspirators. They are each and all capable of nothing but making use of the dirtiest, meanest, and most contemptible lan- guage—language which is of the same cheracter as their motives. Their alarm at the movemen: going on in this city, at once accounts for the fresh issue of abuse and violence, which is heaped on the constitutional journals of this metropolis; for in it they see the handwriting on the wall, and feel the cup dashed from their polluted lips, when about to swallow its contents. As consolation, we caa inform them that this movement will not be confined to a single election, nor to a single week, nor toa single year. It isa great constitutional and thorough determinatione | which has been atrived at by the people, and will not be abandoned by those who have taken hold af | it, until the two old political parties of the north , ° are stopped of their power to do wrong, and purged and purified of such conspirators as Weed, Greeley, & Co., and of the corruption, i cendiarism, and baseness with which they are ident fied, aod which they have carried into the administration of our public affuirs for some years past. Well may Weedand his associates ery out “Panic !” “Panic!” | anic!” Let us see, however, whether there is any ceuse for such an outery. The Courierand Lnguirer, and Tribune, of New | York,and the Evening Journal,of Albany, all concur in deprecating the movement in favor of the Union and the constitution, which originated with the pa- triotic and national portion of the community of all sand parties. Inthe face of the excitemeat clas: raging in the North in opposition to the Fugitive | Slave lew recently passed by Congress, and when | the country had been brought to the verge of dis- jon, those journals were erying *—* Do not move,”’— Do not But such paltry tricks to prevent the patriotic merchants, mechanics and tradesmen of this city from stepping in and averting out ** Peace, peace, | the crisis, and endeavoring to impress on the public their constitutional duties, and to give a constitu- tional direction to the Northern mind, will not sue- ceed, and the movement will not be impeded by any efiort of the abolitionists.

They are now en- geged in the good work, and Weed and his asso- ciates may bark, and snarl, and growl, and hiss, and foam at the mouth, until they sink from ex- hevstion, for all the public care. They decliim about agitation, while they are the agitators and They oppose a law which is accordance with the constitution, end which makes it obligatory on the North to fulfil its constitutional contract with the South.

The real conspirators have been found out, their midnight councils have been broken up, and the people are about to fix the brand of treason on their foreheads.

The old misgivings, jealousies, and distrust, among the several cliques, still prevail. Their candidate for Mayor is a highly deserving gentleman, and in Fer- nando Wood's election we should secure an able and popular officer. The whig nominee, Mr. Kinge- land, though a men of wealth and of a certain de. gree of popularity, has yet many objectionable poiats against him. Certaia oil contracts are com- mented upon very severely by his opponents, and specimens of certain oils ere on exhibition at Dan- lap’s Pewter Mug, in connection with Mr. Kings land's soubriquet of “Oily Gammon.” Other charges, tending to show him up to the peeple asan aristocrat, are also industriously circulated ; and his friends must work hard successfully at the polls. Between Mr. Blunt the whig candidate for District Attorney, and John Crabom, the nomiace ef the malign influences of Temmony Uaell, there is, we apprebend, no sort of compaticon. The one is known to be a talented, high-minded, capable man; the other has proved himself a man of limited capacities—a man, in pro- fessional acquiremente, in probite, and tastes, but little qualified for District Attorney of the great city of New York.

Tre Sixta Conoresstonat Distaict.—We find in the journals of yesterday morning, the card of jeorge Washiagton Blunt, who comes out boldly and bluntly, by name and by nature, as a candidate for Representative in Congress, in opposition to free soil Cochrane and tweedle-dum Brooks, some- times tweedle-dee. Mr. Blunt comes out on his own hook, andhe stands a fair chance of polling more .ores than the ether candidates, who are everywhere sometimes, and nowhere at others. Blunt is bound to go ahead. Here's the card :— A CARD. he Sith Congressional District : Paiiow Orrin cogrees, tor the Bixth offer m:; as a candidate for at the coming election.

The principal journals engaged in | proving white to be black, are the Evening Post, | The Courier and Enquirer, and the Tribune. The | Jatter journal was the first tq publish the names of merchants engaged in attacks upon Southern | rights, by finding capital for an abolition news- | paper ; and now, in conjunction with other journals, | devoted to party and political power more than to | patriotism, it wou'd represent the Herald to be the cause of destroying the trade of merchants, who sell their principles in ene shop, and their dry goods in another. Nay, the Zribune is not satisfied with attacking the journals devoted to the preser- vation of the Union, but it is engaged daily in making the most outrageous and desperate attacks | upon the sincerity, patriotism, and honesty, not only of Southern merchants, but on the character, disposition and principles of our great commercial publi It ig, however, pretty evident that the origin of all the abuse heaped upon the mercantile classes, has sprung from a defeated attempt to obtain money, and under false pretences, too— from the very per- Sons whose conduct, as honest citizens, has been called in question by this journal of philosophy, of isms, and of moonshine. A few weeks ago a se- cret circular was distributed by thissame Tribune, daily engaged in making charges against cotempo- raries, of levying black mail, from which we ex. ract the grounds of its appeal to the merchants, to sustain it against the tide of unpopularity setting against it for its treason, philosophy, odds and ends» abuse and bad grammar. Thus runs, in the edi- | tor's lish, this secret circular.

Perhaps more atrocious libels on the character of the mer- chants of this metropolis have never been publish- ed, and it remains to be seen how a disclosure, through our columns, of this madman's malevo- lence, will effect the body politic.

What a silly cock and bull story is thie! Would the infidel philosopher give an instance of spectal Providence? Does he think to frighten the mer- chante of this metropolig, by citing an incident in the panic of 1837, as the result of a declaration of devotion to the express stipulations of the eonsti- tution? Does he really think that men are so shallow as not to understand their true position, ond the nature of their duties to their country and its constitution? Let him continue to abuse the merchants of New York, who foresee the terrible evils which must result from the election of the Seward abolition whig State ticket, because they Will aot adopt it—it will only make Greeley’s de- feat, end that of Thurlow Weed, and the other conspirators against the constitution, the more | signal and decisive.

Of the in- tegrity, honesty, and patriotiem of the mass of the people, these political Rob Roys may be well assured; and the sophistical, malignant, and out- rageous slanders upon the sincerity and conserva- tive spirit of our people, will yet prove elements for the destruction of this mischievous pest to eociety—this Fourierite, socialist, abolitionist, whig and pudding stone in politics—this head of the party of “scrupulous respect for the rights of other countries,” and very front ef the faction of unscru- pulous disregard for his own country and country- men. His agitation is one that costs him much, and those who are disposed to encourage his black mail system, may give all due heed to the hint, wa” “Money MAY BE SENT THROUGH THe PosT Orrice aT THE RISK OF THE PuDLISHERS.” Tue Priary Meerinas—Hornrire De- VELOPEMENTS OF Bxriserny, CoRRuPTION, AND Fravp.—The primary elections in this city, for the last few years, have developed a sum total of brib- ery and fraud which, if exhibited to public view, would strike the world with amazement and hor- ror. Occasionally, when disappointment and che- grin make men leaky, or when objects of pecuniery interest or personal ambition are to be served, a corner of the curtain is maliciously raised, and we get a glimpse of what is behind ; but, as a general tule, the wire-pullers and agents in this nefarious wickedness,so manage to conceal the proofs of their guilt, that nothing appears upon the surface of the etegnant pond of corruption but the results, and the commnnity at large can only guess that some. thing is rotten heneath, from the kind of men that are thrown up. Now and then, however, the naked villainy is revealed, and from such speci- mens we are enabled to form a pretty accurate idea of the whole. The iniquity is not confined to either of the two great factions, which alternately divide the spoils. Itpervades and ramifies through the whole system of primary elections and nomi- nations, both whig and democratic. The whigs generally keep their own counsel better, but it is notorious that they are just as deep in the mire their antagonists. Never, in any former year, did euch an amount of electioneering rascality exhibit itself as during the present fall. It has stalked all over the city like “the pestilence that walketh in noonday.” The revelations made at the Congressioaal mass meeting of the Feurth district, on Monday after- noon, in Madison street, and reported in yester- day’s Herald alone, of all the city papers, are but Samples of every district and ward in the city, and this humiliating confession was made by some of the leaders themselves, who let the cat ont of the bug, not perhaps so much from the promptings of patriotism, as from the desire to take down some man who stood in their way, and to set up in his stead another, not one iota better. There isan old adage that ‘“‘when rogues fall out, honest men come by their own,” or, at all events, they find out who the rogues are, and can thus better protect them- selves from future depredations. If they fail to do eo the fault is their own, and they deserve to be plundered. It is a fixed fact, well established and known to every man who has eyes to see and ears to hear, that the merchante, storekeepers and other re- spectable citizens are driven from the primary elections, which are left in the hands of the cor- rupting and the corrupt. The whole mechinery is moved by the almighty dollar, and hired bullies do the dirty work, for which they are paid. Decent men will not come into contact with them to gain a mere political victory, end the consequence is, that they “rule the roast” with a highhand. The most worthless characters, with exceptions, like angels’ visits, few and far between, receive the nominations, because they are able und willing to expend money in paying rowdies and fighting men to surround the ballot box, and allow only those tickets to be polled which they know to bear the names of their paymasters) and these mon get themselves thus nominated that they may tura every dollar they expend into ten or tweaty dollars, by bleeding the candidate for Congress, Assembly, Moyoralty, Common Council, head ofa city de- partment, or any other office in the gift of the peo- ple. The nomination being once obtained, the rati- fication meeting is managed by the same agencies ; and the citizens who pay the taxes are driven away from it. The electors, according to ‘the usages of the party,” vote for the candi- date thus nominated, and thus ratified, like a flock of sheep following a bell wether; and if he is elected, by way of showing his gratitude to" the people, he plunders them, not only by reimbursing himself for what his fraudulent election cost him, but adding interest upon interest, through dishonest contracts, and a thousand other meens. Thus the round of wickedness goes on from year to year, and the people are fleeced, under the de- lusion that they are honest patriots, and are serving their party by voting for a good whig, or a good democrat. Hence ignorance, incapacity, blunder- ing of every deseription, the most disgraceful | neglect, and the most criminal fraud, sit in the high places of the city government, the State ; Legislature, the federal Congress; and the | party newspapers, who profess to be the watchfal | guardians of the people, are like “dumb dogs | which cannot bark,” because they are afraid of | exch other. Conscious that those who live in glass | houses cennot safely throw stonea, both the whig and the democratic organs shrink alike from ex- poring the turpitude of the faction leaders, either on their own or the other side, and accordingly the evil is allowed to accumulate from time to time. There are many good men of the two great po- litical sections, who are beginning to see and to feel the terrible realities of ¢ system, and are trembling for the conseguences. They are medi- | citing upeo the mode ard means of overthrowing it, but they have not yet put their thoughts in any tangible shape. We would suggest that a noble opportunity presents itself this evening at the great Union meeting, to make a beginning, for one blow struck there would be half the battle. Let a reso- Jution to the purpose be drawn up and oflered, de- nouncing primary meetings in toto, and there is not the shadow of a doubt that it will be carried by the assembled people. Something must be done, and that soon, to stem the tide of political ane ing that overspreads the land threatens to engul, e , together with the glo- rious constitution itself—“the envy of sarrout nations, and the admiration of the world.” Tre Frxe Ants—Ancunisnor Hvenes tv Paxo- Ramas —In one of our morning cotemporaries, we find the following very important official document, which seeme to have been the first issued by the newly created Archbishop of this diocess, since he received the Palliom from the Hely Father at Reme:-— Dear Bir:-Having been prevent at ihe, Atel exbtbt v= Ha rat ox! thon of your ‘Views of the Island ot Cuba T }JONIN. Archbishop cf New York. Mr. 0. B. Loomrs, New York. The Archbishop's approval of this exhibition is very important and very satisfactory. It reflects the highest evidence upon his good tasig and cri- tical judgment in the fine arts. But there are a number of ether interesting exhibitions to be seen in this city—there is a wonderful collection of strange and curious articles in Barnum’s Museum, for example, for which the certificate of the Arch- bishop might be of great advantege in the present crisis. The woolly horse, of course, needs no apostolicnl affidavit, he having been daily exam- ined and pronounced upon by Col. Beaton at W. ingten. But seriously, it is a matter of regret that Archbishop Hoghes should lend his archipiseopal ev'hority to the puffing a panorama.

Jenny Lind’s Third Concert tm Tripler Hall. Mademoiselle Jenny Lind’s third Concert in Tripler Hall, last evening, was distinguished in three respects from her former concerts. It was the best yet given in New York, it was far more enthusiastically ap plauded than either of the two previous ones given in the same building, and Tripler Hall was better filled than we bave hitherto seen it at these concerts, The upper gallery, for the first time, was well filled, and lower gallery, in “first circle,” as it is called, was crowded with a highly fashionable audisnce, while the parquette, or lower part of the house, was all filled, with the exception of one or two back seats close to the door. It was a brilliant assemblage of humen beings, in perhaps the moet beautiful musical bell in the world, Such ao eelection of “gems of the purest ray,’ were, perhaps, never exhibited at asingle concert before, On mak: her sppea: ‘nce tosing the aria “Non mi dir,” from Mozart's opera of Don Giovanni, she was received with warm and prelonged cheers. She sung it magnificently, and a‘ter the close, the audience called ‘her out for ap- plause, The “ fatal memento,” aterzetto from Ro- berto Il Diavolo, sung by Miss Lind and Signors Beletti and Perelli, was a beautiful performance, in which the solemn sadnees of the subject was admirably expressed. It was earnestly encored, and Mias Lind fupg her part the second time better than the first, which rarely happens in her encores, which, by the by, from the heart. The from*Der Freyschutz,” she weet and expressive plaintiveness, which sang with was duly appreciated by the audience. But the great triumph of the evening, was“ Perehe non ho del Ven- to,” an aria from Donizetti's opersof “ Lucia di Lam- mermoor.”’ In this, she revelled in her bird-like carolling, so as to astonish the listeners and transport them with delight. Buch singing was never heard be- fore, even from Jeany Lind. She produced an electric sensation simultaneously in every heart. A perfect hurricane of applause followed, She was encored and applauded enthusiastically ag The manner in which she executed that gem, fills one with regret that he cannot have the pleasure of hearing her perform the whole part of Lucia, in that opera, in which she was fo great. The song is but # taste of what sucha banquet would be. jer next performance was t! ich wa such appla minds of the audience, but piano, and commenced the “Invitatioa to the Dance,” & charming rapid melody, whieh ebe sang with a most happy end laughing expression. She was applauded vehemently, and encored, but, instead of singing that an encore was evidently in t quickly sat down to the encore, she sung the “Echo Song,’ to the info! light of the audience, because unexpected. She was rewarded with the most hearty applwuce, and shouts of “bravo” One gentleman, who rat near us, exclaimed, while she sang it. “Oh, my God." i Belletti acquitted himself with the usual éelv nd Perelli proved himself good singer. There was euole plano. or two pianoes in one, on which a quartette was periormed in bewutifal style. It is manufactured by Pirsson. Jenny Liud never gave & more successful concert. We learn that Harnom bas despatched an agent to Havana, and bes already concluded arrengements in the Southern cities, which, we understend, wil! ren- dcr it necessary to finish the converts of Jenny Lind in this city very shortly. We are further informed that there will probably be her last concerts in New York, or at most, that she will not be able to give more than one or two here in the spring, as it is near. ly positively fixed that ehe proceeds to London in May to be present at the great World’s Fair.
