THE NATIONAL WHIGS AND THE sEwarp | 2) gs TICKET—MORE TREASON IN THE AMP. {from the Commercial Advertiser, Oct. 24 ] ANOTHER WHIG CONVENTION TALKED OF. We hear a rumor of another whig State convention, but apprehend that there is scarcely time for the con summation of the project, if it has been really seriously entertained. Of course, the movement has its origin with the more conservative portion of the whig party, who are much dissatisfied with the nomiaations made at Syracuse, and still more with the condact of the ne- minees in endorsing the resolves of the Sarat Con- vention, which act of theirs, so unwarran‘ed under the circumstances, is nearly equivalent to an endorsement also of the still stronger language adopted by the same convention, after its adjournment to Auburn. With thete objections we strong!y sympathise, believing the conduct of the candidates vo bave inflicted a deplorable calamity on the party, and to be in violation of its well established principies. So strongly do we entertain this bel:ef, thar since those letters of “cordial approval” appeared, ws have been unable to urge upon our readers the support of the whig nominees, as whigs, at the ballot box. Other recommendations they may hsve—other juslities that will commend them to the suffrages of their fellow citizens ; but as whige we cannot accept their theories as party doctrines, or recommend others todo so. It iss painful course to adopt toward gentle- men regularly chosen by the perty’s convention, but it in the only couree left to us by our e-nvictions of public duty. The feult is no: ours, but that of the candidates who have departed from the platform So far, we presume, the conservative section of the whi, organization is united in sentiment. Weare inthe post- tion of a varty having no candidates. Those in whose no. mination we in all Capt, fon Fapy and were prepared artily to support cordially and at’ the ballot bor, have Jailed us Tt would seem as though they bad so far mus- taken the of the unevimity that prevailed is the convention, as te interpret it into a license to follow their own proclivities to bent of their inclination. Be that as it may, have mistaken, and ia their pre- sent position co greatly misrepresent the real, heartfelt sentiments of true whig party. The whigs are no. where radicu! ‘are inherently, essentially, neces sasily th conservatism upon their banners, and such must ever their disting ui: characteristic. Radicalism and de: agogism, and wild, impracticable theories, cannot find a eongenial and permanent home in their ranks. Circum- stances of a jar natare may occasionally elevate extremists or their leaders into prominenge, as in all other izations has happened and wili happen again and Agitating events may even so generally dis- turb the public mind as to give temporarily a radical bias to the majority of the whole people, and the sober, reflecting portion of the community have fogs 8 the alter- native of waiting for that calm which, in the political world assurely asin the physical, succeeds the storm. Then men can see further before them; then they can hear the voice of reason, and their fears being allayed, and their excitement no longer sustained by the roar of the elements. they are prepared to think and do as be- comes deliberative, judicious and patriotic men. The whole free states have been lashed into agitation ty the passing storm evoked by Senstor Douglas and his abettors in administration and in the routhern States; and one cannot wonder that their political views and other things taken into consideration, the whigs of the freo States have participated largely in the common agitation, or thatin the present stateof the popular sentiment the Syracuse convention, and consequentl: its nominees, were strongly impregnated with the anti- ale feeling—much more so than the minds of those who have entertained other ideas and aims than that One question which with the masses has for the time almost annihilated every other. But who supposes that the storm is never to spend itself and be succeeded b; scalm? Whe supposes that the American people—at it is with them that we have to do—will cherish extreme and sectional views on a question of such moment and such delicacy as that which is now exciting them? The reaction is as certain as the zeturm of the Seasons. It = ee to stenf the torrent while the storm , but with the abatement of the tempest will come also fs bask of tae waters into their accustomed We woald counsel our whig conservative friends, therefore, to wait, xt year will bring forth. We should counsel even were there ten weeks instead of ten days for deliberation and action.

And if avy whig has reached that state in which @ distasteful nomination makes him indifferent to such s consideration—in which, because his views have not been met, therefore he would have the party disorganized—he had better consult his senee of honor as well as his peace of mind by joizing some to which he can give heart ser- + ao on as li legiance. a ed om But Jeaving general question, and recu: to that jar of it represented by the ru om | Te- ferred to at the commencement of this article, we would inquire of what practical utility such s convention, or any movement ‘of’ that character, could possiby be at the present moment.

How is it sible to effect anything of organization, or even judicioualy to select candidates, within thet time? even if the \didates are al- ready agreed upon by the movers in this diversion, do they expect to obtain for them whig support without placing before the party full and satisfac expos ticn of their reasons for separate action?

A cha be an eminently disgraceful one; it is converting @ publio trust to one’s own pecunti and benefit. 1 One of the charge yernment is the facility afforded for bribing men io the ageinst the republican form of go- discharge of a public trust. ‘The freest and most ea nation of antiquity was nt exempted from rament like ours, the progress ® national character in its consequences, There con scarcely be any crime greater than that of the man who, charged with a sacred trust, negecta or betrays it for bis own personal profit, and there can be no doudt, therefore, thst a charge of this kind made agaiust 4 public officer is of sufficiently grave s character to war- rant, an action for defamation. in this cass the charge, if true, would subject Mr. Barr to an indictment. The character of the defence is, first, that Mr. Erbem had the right to make these starements agaiast Mr. Barr, whether they were true or not, as Mfr. Barr was a can. @idate for Senator of this State, and that the words were Lae 5 in reserence to bis qualifications for the office; t the statement was mace at @ priva’e meeting upon ® subject in which all were interested, and that he could not be he'd responvibie for what he said, even if it was untrue in addition tte defendant says that if the statements he rade use of are not covered as privileged communications, the charge, at all events, is rue As to the first ground of defence it is usual to sot up's privileged communicstion in the plesdings But this has not been done, and it is my duty to sell you that you mast not take it into consideration. unless it sppears from the plaintifi’s evidence that the words Were spoken under sush circumstance as would excuse Erben. If you should fins this to be the case, then the question of privilege becomes material. There are cer- tain commoupications regarded in law as privileged; thst they may not be true, but the circumstances under which they were uttered operate as privilege to the person who spoke them. ‘is protection exists when what is spoken or done is so spoken or done in the dis- charge of s legal or moral duty. But if tne daty shor not prove to be the real motive that actuated the 4; er, and he was infiaenced by malice, then is not shielded by the privile, ‘lo ilustrate thie: When man inquires of another the character cfa servant, and that other ets Mi that he has lost certain articles, and aye that the ser. yant stole them, though the charge may be untrue, yet the communication being in good faith, the individual who gives it is excused. To illustrate it ia a more gene ral way: When e communica‘ion is made by one citizen to the appointing power in reference to the qualif*ations and character of another citizen about to he appointed to office, the commurication is excusable, for the pro’se- tion of society requires that auch commutica‘ions should be privileged, unless some malevolent motive is shown. This privikge is, somo degree, extecded to what citizess say of / blir office, @ opinion of Chief [The learned Jucge, here. quotes justice Parsons on this point, which wont to show that & candidate for public office ix to be oonsidered putting his character, to a certain exten*, in isuu 4s his fitness fcr the office in concerned; and thet tne ubjication of the truth in this respect, is nt libel! t at the same time, the publication of falsenoo: against public officers is a dangerous offense People, and should be punished. Kis honor a ma care determi quoted in the “tate of South Carolina, in which the justice stated that when « candidate for public office comes forward f r the puffrages of the peo: Je, he makes himself a spocies of public property. of tue fitness of which all may speak. But, his boaor con tinued—while » certain privilege uodoubtedly exists as to what s man may say of a candidate, it bas its limits Itis, perhaps, dificult to assign this limit. It is aiffi- cult so to adjust the rules of lew that citizens, on the one hand, may be left at liberty to comment on the merits and qualifications of public men, and on the other hand, that the individual be protected from lice and calumny. I « that whatever a man ex- presses in respect to the fitnesa or capacity, or moral character of a candidate for public office, as a matter of opinion, is jastifable—for he is even cilied upon to do this. may also state the grounds of his opinion—he may repeat what he has heard from others—he may to rumour, but if » n brings a spesific inst any individual, and gives it, not on Tee hear'ay authority, but on the authority of his owa knowledge the ence is very different. It is no longer a matter of hearsay, for he assumes all the responuibility of the charge he makes. No man can be justified this, It has been well expressed by an eminent judge, that however great a blessing this vrivilege of freedom of sh may be, it is not # shield from under which any man, secure from the law, may hari his slanders. In England, too, the same doctrine is held. This rule must be applied to this case. It is in proof here that Warreil made a communication to Erben, of certain information he receired from Geo. J. Sith Itis further stated by Smith that Krben calied on him in respect to it. I¢ Erben hed merely staied the purport of his information—if he had stated simply what he had heard, he would be protected, unless circumstances pinch he was actuated by rat ey the fret A x lore, gentlemen, ‘will have to pass 4; as & quertion of fact, whether it ware matter ohich Eee ‘bem gave as having heard, or whether he stated it of his own knowledge. If he propagated it as a matter of his own bnowlecge, he incurs the responsibility. If, on the cther hand, he has given it only as a rumor, he is protected, unless can be abown. If he only stated what he had reason to believe was true, I have no doubt that his communication would be deemed privilezed. While on this subject I should draw your attention to a dirtinet . This matter of privileged communications does not refer to ths publication of the unfitoess of a candidete for office in the columns of @ newspaper. Buch & case was decided in the English courts. An individual was a candidate for election to Parliament for the bo rouga of Finsbury, and publication reflecting on his character ed in the florning Post An action was the defendent urgei that article in ited to the fitness of the plain’ in Parliament, and was addressed to the electors of Fins- io The court, however, said thet this did not jasti fy the publication, as it was addresved to all the world im the columns of a newspaper. Thus, the fact of a ing « candidate for office in New York, does not justify the ng charge at him in s newspaper which exteade ite influence over and * itical excitement of the womeat, and pr-ve injarious Ete consequences in after tims. Tho difficulty, there- fore, is to draw & distir ction in this matter, so as to leave the citizen at liberty to discaxs the merits of the candidate, butat the same time protect the indi. vidual from the tongue of malice. The courts in England bave drawn that line of which I have spoken, in rafer- ‘ence to public newspapers. Now the Lh peta gon. tlemen, for you to consider, if you believe that the communication is not private, is, has Mr. Frben proved the charge? You must determines this from the evidence, To prove it the defendent relies on two spe- cific facta, the sale of the appointment to A. M. 0. Smith, and the sale of the appointment to one Captaia rp ted ecuniary consideration First, in respect to the ged sale of an appointment to Smith. From the evidence of A. M.C Smita it appears thet he undoubt- edly intended to bribe ® public officer. He ssys that he bad applied to Barr for the appolutmert, and that Barr saii he could not give it to him. He then saw Gi J. Smith, told him all that had occurred, and asked hi to intercede with Barr. This happened in Jane and the elections were not to take place until November. A. M. C. Smith said that he would give ss much towards Barr’s Clecticnas any man. Geo. J. Smith then went t some time after returned, aud said that if M. C.

The Coal 8 sion. fren the Philedelotis North merican, Oct. 24 } ‘he sur persion of shipments, which was threatened by the Schuyikiil operators, has at ieng’h taken place, as our readers bave no Goubt teen in the diminished re. ceipte of coai bere sy railroad. Am articlein ‘he Miners’ Journal informs us thst it will continue through the Greater part, if not the whole of this week. Th» ‘Sasigns 46 8 reason for the suspension, the withhol o1oréers, ome cf the papers of this city have stat that the suspension was caused by a strike of the opera- tives atthe mines This may be trae, but the Miners’ Journal cays nothing about it, which rather tarde to throw ¢coubt over it For the information of our read- €18, we apperd the Journal's usuai trade article:— ‘Lhe quantity rent by raitroad this week is 28,719.07 tons, my caval 16 216.01 tons, tor the week 44 934.08 tons. Inert < 57,728.01, to P year. The shipments are light thi: week, showing s falling off sicce last week of 21,170,183 tons. ‘The cor! trade is in ‘a sparl;’? consumers sbroad still coptinue to bcid back, expecting coal to fall; deals: of cours+, capnot purchsee, and the trade at “ichmond cannot sell Freights and wages remain without cbange, and our Operatc76 eswnot furnish coal at “be prices offeres for it; hence they heve determined to suspend operstions until the coal is wanted a‘ « price that will pay for mini = rate of wages and materiais that enter iato the business. This was the cnly course left for the ope yators uncer the circumstances. ‘ihe suspension is pretty general; only ® few persons who have contracts continue to mine. ‘The trace here have reduced the prices as low as the circumstances wiil permit Just as our paper was going to press, we learned that the suspension will be almost, if not quite, general, throughout the ensuing week. But about five weebs of the shipping season remai and scme of the markets, we learn, are bare of coal; an 0 long as the pres abroad teems with articles stating tha: the ailing, ‘80 long will the consum- ere hold bsck—thia is the natural course of trads—and if they ere cangit with a short rupply, let the respon- sibility rest where it properly belongs have furnished an increase of 446,826.10 al — its of Inst season, ia the teeth of all the publications made ip the cities last winter and spring, that they could not incrense the trade ove ton on ‘the seaboard this year; consequently they have done ity towerdi supplying the market, and «re not Keble toany censure if the supply should prove to be ort. ‘What will be the result of thi: we cin only conjecture. ‘There is probably good ground for the tion that the consumers of New York and the eastward have with- hela their orders, as we have intimated on a recent oces- sion, and, indeed, it is true that some of our own dealers abrivk from storing thelr winter stock of coal at the j ew ruling rates, for fear of heavy losses. As it is, profits are reduced to hepa figare, in conse- ence of the high rates Cemanded at the mines, ani the Savy tolls. And neither suspension cf eg pied eny other cause which may be resorted to, will be likely | to Qpoce them to store thousands of tons of coal at rates which they may not be able to maintain through the win- ter Here is the grand difficulty. We are unable to say how much troth there may be in the statement that the wages demended by the miners are too high fer mining to te —. to the operators. If there be any strike, some reason for the suspension; but if there be none, it seems odd that the wages which have been paid ‘ell the season should be too high now. We had hang that the large «bipments by ra‘lroad and canal after the | recent controversy, and the intimation of the Afiners’ Journal thst orcers were plenty, were indicative of an onc to all present trouble on the subject; but it seems tbat the course of the New England press, in advising coprumers to withhold their orders, has produced ite na: ture] effect.
