Bn by United States Marebat Lowe, of Colombur, Ohio, on & warrant issaed by United States Commissioner Cnit- aenden, of the Scuthern istrict of Odio, at the instance of Andrew D. Jeonings, the depnted agent of the alleged ‘eestr, Joho G. Bacon, of Kentucky. Ca the game day the fogitive was rescued from the officers at Wellington, a fow wiles from Oberlin, by a mob of the citizens of the latter pace—a well known antislavery town, Subsequent to te reecue, # giorificaticn meeting was held at Overtia, swhen it war resolved to resist tho arrest of any fugitive gave ip future. ‘ ‘The Grand Jury of the United States Court at Cleveland imdjeted thirty cight ot the alleged ringleaders of tho mob, inciuding Rey. Hepry Peck, Professor of Oberlin Ositege; Rev. James M. Fitch, formerly Missionary to Ja ‘maica, five fogitive slaves and thirty-one othor citizens, ‘among whom were & number of students of tho college. ‘The two clergymen and eleven others wero indicted for siding and abetting the rescue, and the others for the act maelf. ‘The first one tried usder this indiotment was a Mr. Buednel!, who was found guilty on the 1sth of April. Aa ‘application bad been previously made to the Sapremo @ourt of the State of Obio for a writ of habeas corpus, to take all the prisoners out of the hands of the United States Court, on the ground of the unconstitutionality of the Fu- gitive Slave law. This appiication was denied by the Bate Court, oa the ground that it had no right to interfore ‘with the pridoner while he was aimply in tho hands of the ‘United States Court, and not sengenoed, or on the general gveund that the proceedings of the United States Court ‘wero not yet completed, The application was based ona ‘oupposed parallel case—that of Booth, in Wisconsin, who ‘who was taken out of the custody of the United States of- ffoera in a similar case, after conviction and sentence, on ‘Me ground of the unconstitutionality of the Fugitive Slave Taw. The following is an extract from the opinion of the ‘@hio Court in the Oberlin case, delivered after able argu- meat by Jadge Spalding, on benalf of the prisoners, and ‘Waited States District Atrorney Belden, aasisved by Noah B. Swayne, on bebalf of the United States:— 2 We refer to these cases in Wisconsin with no design of expressing our assent or dissent to the decisions under tho ‘Mest and last writs of habeas corpus, but merely lo show ‘has a court which bad judicially decided the law to do ‘wpeonstitutional, still held that in a case like that under eepeideration they bad no legal right or authority to in- berfere. On the whole, we are unanimously of the opinion that the relators, upoa their own showing—admitting te law im question to be unconstitutional and yoid—could not be @ischarged by us if toe writ had been igsued, and they Were bow belore us for deliverance. It would be an idie ‘and cxpensive ceremony to award the writ to bring the parties bere, and, fur the time, intercept proveodings ia @axd District Court, when our next duty would be wo re- mand them into the custody of the oflicer who now holds them. ‘The application for writs of habeas corpus in behalf of ‘the relators is, for the reasons stated, refused. This view of the case renders an examisation of the ether propositions mooted in the argument as to the con- Stitutionality of the act ot Congress adyerted to, and the wight of the State tribunals to iterfere with the final ac- tien of the District Courts infthat behalf, altogether unne- ‘eceeary. ‘This decision ona pene re oa of the gs areraery mess of the procecaings in the Un! States Court—o! seurse, left untouched the questions of the right of the Beate to interfere with the United States courts, or the con. Miutionality of the Fugitive Slave law. We may me: ‘ten, en passant, that a etapid journal of this city, which ‘Wwies to rise from the dignity of a cur by barking at tue Bera, evinced its usual discernment by hailing the deci- sion as in favor of non interference with the United States eourts, a question which we have showa did not arise in ‘the opinion of the State Court, se, until sentence was — the State Court oould have no wrong to redreas. is not too late for the State Court to interpose its arm 4 prevent the punishment of the prisoners. At the conclusion of the trial of Bushnell, the prosecu- 1B proposed to proceed with the trial of the balance: but fence was only really in tne case of Professor Peck, ‘who objected to the “ struck jury,’’ which had tried the ease of Busbnell, which the prosecution claimed should fry all the cases. The Judge, at tho conclusion of the trial of Bushnell, said the prisoners might gout large under the pre rious ameunt of bail on their own recognizance; but they nearly ‘all refused to enter inwo any recognizance, and even to ac- eept the order of the Marshal to let them go on their werd. They were avxious to become martyrs, and so the ‘Marshal gave them thirty minutes to go home and make arrapgements for their imprisonment. While in jail wey ‘were provided with comfortable quarters, and, from ail ac- @ounis, had a pretty good time, making speecies, hearing mermons and receiving visiters, being, altogether, about as jolly a band of prisoners as the jail ever held, so that ‘here is some difficulty in deciding which evjoyed thoir | eonfinement the most, themselves or their captors. | ‘The trial of Langston, anovher of ihe rescuers, was com ‘menced on the Ist inst., the Court having allowed the em- pannelling of a new jury. He was thoroughly ideatified as baving been in the : | and urged the service of a warrant on the Kenwcky offi- veers for man stealing. Langston was convicted on the | 30th inst., when application was made for the sentence of Buehne!}, £0 tbat another effort could be made to obtain a writ of habeas corpus from the State authorities, ‘and test the opinion of the Supreme Court of Ohio on tas eonstitutionality of the Fugitive Siave law. The Court, however, refused to pass sentence at thst time; bat, on ‘the 1ith ‘inet., Buebneli waa arraigned and sentenceil to sixty days imprisonment, and a fine of $300 and cozis. ‘The case now assumed another phaze, for the Keatuoky ‘ficers, who were siding in arresting Ube fagitive slave, ested on warrants from the State courts on a ebarge of kidnapping. They were only exemoted from arrest during the tral, upon egreemont by the United ‘States authorities to surrender tnem at the conclusion or temporary suspension cf the proceedings. ‘Langston was sentenced ov the 12th instant to pay a flae ef $160 and costs of prosecution—taking occasion tozspeak teaif an hour on the subject. On the 6th instant four of the rescuers—Williams, Cum- wing, Niles and Mandeviile—who had been at large on their recognizances, were indvicod by the District Atuorney to plead guiity, he stating to the Court that they had been influenced by the Oberlin “ Higher Law fanatics, aud hhad acted in the rescue from ingenious and malicious ms- representations.” They were sentenced to pay a flac of $20 and costs and twonty foar hours imprisonment. None of these four were Oberlin men. They were all from Wellington; and it is stated that the Marehal remarked ‘that toe Oberlin men would not get off ao easily. Three ef tho others—Wadsworth, Willams and Boyco—aiso gave bali and were ect at large. The fifteen who remain- ed im jail were ordered into custody on their refusal to be tried by the “struck jong.” After the sentence of Bushnell and Langston the United Btates District Attorney moved for the postponement of ‘he other cases, on ground that he ‘to argues the mew motion before the Supreme Court of the State for a ‘Ihabeas 001 , and also to dofend seven of his witnesses, who had arrested by the State authorities on barges of kidnapping; and he had been directed by the United States to defend them. On these reprezentations ‘the Court ordered the balance of the cases to hold over ‘antil July 12, 5 ‘The citizens of Oberin meanwhile have become highly indignant at the treatment which their friends are rezeiv- ing, and at a recent meeting, presided over by a reverend gen! and attended by a number of professors and students of the College, Professor Monroe stated the points ‘of their grievances as follows:— 1, We are engaged in an obstinate and bitter war with ‘the whole force of the federal government—a war not of eur own secking, but, nevertheless, an obstinate and bit- Tetreat. ter contest, unless we i point of attack.

It now remain to be seen whether the Supreme Court ‘of Ohio will dare take upon itself the responsibility of in- ‘werfering with the United States Courts, and of attempt- ‘40g to take the prisoners out of the bands of the Marshal. ‘The Attorney General of the United States has iostructud the Marshal to resist, at all hazards, any attempis of the State authorities to get possession of the prisoners, either ‘by babeas corpus or otherwise, guaran ‘him tho pro- teeing Section of the Vuited States Courte atall hazards.

Two battles have been fought, in one of which the Acting Governor of the State was killed. ingular to relate, the revolutioniss were commanded by officers of the federa! government. This circumstance gave rise to the suspicion that the President of the con- federation and h‘s Cabinet plotted the overthrow of the party in power in the State of Santander, who bolong to the democratic or liberal party, and who are opposoa to the conservatives represented by the present national ad. ministration. The charge was cpenty mado in Congress, but was devied by the conservatives. Circumstances have lately transpired to justify the be. lef that the congervatives, im order to perpetuate their power, will even ignore the constitution, and, if necessary, distranchise the States of the confederation. For instanco, -/ a short time since they introduced a bill in Coagreas | which, among other things, provides that the Supreme | Court of the confederation and the Senate and House ye ‘Representatives shall have power to appoint a board of electors or supervisors, with full powers to supervise the register of votes, and to decide who shal! or who shai! not | vote in the elections for senators and ropresentatives in ‘the national Congreas. No appeal is ailowed; the decision | of the hoard is to be considered final. The bill, it ap- | Pears, has passed both branches of Congress, and beon | apnroved by the Fxecutive. ! ‘Thus are the people of the several States of the con- | federation virtually, if not in reality, deprived of tho | power to clect senators and repreentatives to Congress, | the constitution, which guarantees universal aufirage, | igvored, and the States disfranchised. It is claimed by the friends of the measure that there are four States in favor of it. This can hardly be poseioie.

The publi> mind is already in a atato of great excitement, and it would require but very little to produce an explosion. It is to be regretted that Congress did not piuse before perpetrating such a deed. New Granada has happily been exempt for many years from civil wars, but the moment this measure i§ Bttempte! to be carried oat, that moment puts an end to her tranquillity; anarcdy, in its ‘worst form, will predominate, and hor condition will be- come infinitely more deplorable than that of any of her sister repndiics, ‘There has been no further outbreak here since the dis- turbance of the 17th ult.,an account cf which I sent you per steamship Northern Light.

Sin—My attention bas beon called’ to the publication in one of the journals ef the city of Mexico, of a document entitled “Protest of the Supreme Goverament,” sigaod by Don Monue! Diez de Bonilia, Minister of Foreign Af- faire of the government of whith President Miramoa is Chief of the Exccative, making the following allega- ons — 1. That Mr. th recognized that, government, and caused @ negot to be begun for the purchase of a considerable portion of the national territory of Mexico. 2. Ubat not having accomplished his object, he sought opportunities for dieptte and bad understanding, and ex- cited hig fellow ctizens to disobedience, whose proceed- ings terminated ip the suspeneion of political reiations be- tween that gentleman and the goverament, 3. That the suprems geverament tolerated that evil conduct only to make ft known to the govarnment of the United States, which, instead of censuriug it, approved the conduct of thelr Minister, and to make their hostility manifest, and their disloyalty to tne supreme government patent, recognized the coastitutonal goverument, of which President Juarez is Chict of tho Executive, aud from which he wes previously repulsed, with the object of vesting bim with that legitimacy and autnority which he bad b. jon with the government of the Une 2 om Bexicu Ber national tovrivery. 4. This article cecares pull and void tho agre ments and treaties botween the government of tne Udi States and the constitutional goverament of Mexico. This is tbe explabation of the occurrences which are connected with tho ackaowledgment of the central government of tbe city of Mexico by Mr. Forsyth, wisely combined with other acts 2nd incidents which took place on a diferent occasion aad under totally distiact circum- stances, with the object of interfering with the coutormity and good faith of the governmont of the United States. When Mr. Forsyth recognized that government Presi- dent Comorfort bad abandoned the country, and be could pot know that President Juarez bad already organized the constitutional government. In consequence, the go- vernment recognized by Mr. Forsyth was only tho de nmi—tbat which ruled in Mexico at that time; cognizug it as such be actet m conformity with the well established practice and policy of the go. verpment of the United States. ‘Afterwerds he terminated his relations with that go- vertment, not for the wans of good understanding, nor tions for the pur- chase of territory, but beczuse that goverament malig- baplly trauppled vpon the jong established priaciples of law abd political courtesy which regulate the relations of civilized States, apd the government of the United Sta approved bis resolution of suspending dipiomatic and po- hhueal relations with @ government which pursued such conduct. Yet afterwards, ‘tn nearly the whole Mexican nation hod rejected the cepiral goverament, and the constitu- tional xovertment of President Juarez was entirely re- estabiinied in iu fanctions, and accepted by more than four iithe of the republic, by the conduct of its special Mivistor in Wasbington, Mr. Mata, the government of the United States was myited to re-estabitsh political relations With Moxivo, Tho government of the United States only had to be assured that tbls constitutional government existed in Mexico, With suillcieat authority and power to regulate questions pending between the two republics, at a time in which p ations might have been suspended, and & Lic Which was disposed to exercise its power, animated by « friendly and loyal spirit. ‘The great extension of the territory of the republic of Mexico being a I'mit to the United States, tha very impor- twpt and oltmate political and commercial relations es- tabliehed between the two republica by the existing trea- ties and the exterprise of tho citizens chboth countrise, ae- termined tho urgent dety of the:United States to re-es- tabiisb its political relations with the republic of Mexico a! ays suppoeing that a just respoct to itaown dignity and the laws aod urages of nations would place it in a condi- tion to act in that manner, Under these circumstances, notwithstanding that civil ‘War exleto| In the repubiic of Mexico, and that the govern- ment, of which President Miramon s Chief of the Execa- live, occupies the capital of tbe republic, and two or taree of it# principal cities, the government of the United States could not weil have se/used to recognise the constitutional government of Mexico ss the legal and dz facto authority with which it was ite duty to 4 in reference to all the principal questions pendibg between the governments of tbe two republics.

The Opposition and the Next Presidency. THE TROULLWS OF THB REPUBLICAN PARTY—W. H. SEWARD V8..N. P, BANKS, ETC.» BTC. (From the Boston Atlas, o rgan of Mr, Banks and the anti- Popery republicans } SBALL THE OPPOSITION UNITE IN 1860 ? No ope cnn survey the political field without fecling an Areurance that there ig an earnest desire on the part of the Opposition to the present democratic party to form a vbion, both North and Seuth, which will be the forerun- ber of success in 1860, Since 1866 the cfy of sectionalism whieh wug raised against the republican ty, or rather the party which supported Fremont and Dayton, has in a great cegree been hushed, The people bave seen thatthe only rea) national of the country ia the party which voted against Mr. isan and the "only real sectional party is the party which voted for him. The American republican party have po higher aim tuan to resene the goverpment from the power of the mon who now control it, They bave no sectional feeling, thovgh they bave a very clear and distinct formula of Ppriverples. They neither seek nor degire to entrench upon tho constitutional rights of the South. Taey frecly and folly acknowledge that the general government has no right, ove way or the other, interfere with slavery in the States in which {t exists, The republicans believe slavery 10 be not only anovil but a curse. They are, Uerefore, opposed to baving it extended into regions whorein it does not pow exist, and they act and will act accordwgly. It is, perbaps, natural that mon who have deen brought up in slavebolding communities should not fee) on this subject as the people brought up in non slave. bota'ng communities feel. one may bo in favor of ex- tending the inetituiion, the other must be oppoeed to it. Upen Question it is next to folly to suppose that silence can be maintained, The North is willing to let the ma- jority In Congress settle this question, and if the South is ipg to accede to stich a proposition, then the thing is in come eeeere eee: a toes in Kentucky, The Douglas democracy and the democracy mucky, Jedzing from the speeches which have been made during the present canvass in that by Mr. Magoflin, the de- moeratic candidete for Governor, Mr. Stevenson, of the Covipgton district, and other distinguished members of the party, have taken the ground that the whole question of sinvery or hon-slavery ja the Territories should be left for the cecision of the people of the Territories. We believe thet the question should be left where the Constitation leaves it, with the Congress of the United States. Tho difference is neither wide nor radical, but it involves question of constitutional power that we cannot if we could concede away. There is another party m the South who profess to beliove that reas has no power to ox- clude rats § from tho Territories, but that it is the boun- den dot; Congress to interfere for the protection of slavery ip the Territories. To this doctrinc we have an utter abhorrence. Thie doctrine, however, is destined to become the Shibboleth of the democratic party in the slave States. One of the most conservative and Upion-loving States of this Union 1 the good old State of Maryland. whirl. wird of Buchananism was unable to force that old and Patriotic State to cast ber vote for the Cincinnati nominecs. Maryland voted for Millard Fillmore, and, what is better, be sent to the Congress of the United States Henry Winter Davis ond J. Morrison Harris, two of the best and ablest mev in that body. When one speaks of pational men, the names of the gentlemen we have recorded above instinc trvely rise up in our recollection. They were true to their State, to their constituents, to thelr principles and to their | country, and, altbough did not always vote pro- cigely a8 we would have voted if holding a seat in the House, yet wo know tbat, they have won the highest re- gard of the conservative and good men of Massachusetts for their in¢ependent and patriotic course, and if either of them ebovld ever be put in nomination for the firetor s¢cond oflice of the government, they could ever rety upon the electoral vote of Massachusetts. For Mr. Davis, with ‘bom We formed an acquatotance in 1862, at the great scott Convention at Niagara Falla, we have a bigh regard. Be is ope of the most ablo, as he is one of the most inde- pendeut and )borai minded gentlemen in this country. Though young in yeare, he is old in wisdom and eloquence. We have been led to make these remarks at this time {rom reading the following res.lutions, passed by the Suite Counell of the American party of Maryland, and the comments of the Baltimore Patriot upon it, in the | wssno of May 10. The resolution is as follows:— Riroived, That the State Council of the American party | of Mary jand, repudiating gectionalisna in every shape and orm, Whether as abotitionism at the Norta or secession at the South, congratulate the country on the auspicious proep opposition to the present democratic adminiatrs And, inepired by this prospect, the poopie of Maryland, | Whilst they reaflira and hereby express their uns ltorable attachment to th eprinciples which have hitherw chtrac terized tbe American party, invite the whole body of con- valive opposition in all the States of the Union to co- perate with them im welectingtdelegates hereaftor, to & National Convention, to be charged with the solg duty of dates for the offices of President and jent of the United States, to be voted for by the whole body of the opposition in 1860, and whose past life, emivent fitness, and unquestionable nationality shall on: em thein to the couzeryative yore of the whole country. To tho foregoing we give a hearty concurrence. We cewire a upion of the opposition in i860. We desire to tet m the Convention to nominate candidates for the two highest offices in the government dolegates from all the States oT the Union. We desire to see in that Convention men a8 Kenneth Raynor, Mr. Gilmer, Mr. Vance, abom, and others of North Carolina; John M. Botts Di ndge Summers of Virginia; H. Winter Davis and Morrison Harv is of Maryland, and gentlemen of repregenta- tive position m the eeveral Southern States. Lot us meet Jike countrymen, as patriots, and gec what can be done to vuite us all in one solid phalanx to defeat the party now to power, which bas ‘corrupted the youth and introdueod strange gods into the city,” and to the lips of which tae cup of hemlock theuld be prersed. ‘To alt that 18 anid in the editorial comments of the Patriat wo cannot give Our aseent, but we like the tone and spirit of the article, and we are willing to meet our friends io Maryland and otber Southern States in the same tone and spirit. We believe that a free interchange of views ina National Convention, between members of the opposition from: all the States ia the Union, would have a most bene- cial and salutary effect. ‘The fact would bo developed | divided that we cannot unite upon | ‘Uhat We are Dot 80 ares of ee La? one we ea like to have tho Oppositional National Convention holden in the good old city of Bakimore. ocensions in 1840, 1844 and 1852, and for gencrous hospi- tality and kindly greeting we know of no city wi fuuale it, All honor to old Maryland and the good city of ultimore. {From the Albany Journal, organ of W. H. Seward and the no-slavery republicans. } It iso significant fact that in Virginia and Kentucky, the opposition make war upon the democracy besause they have conceded too much to the North on the subjoct of slavery. It is with such am clement that the repubil- cane are expected to combine. It would be much easier to mixef and water, Admit the false assnmption iat the Northern democracy have not dono enough for sla- very, and the republican party loaes its vitality in a mo- ment.

The interior of the church js neatly and plainly finished, provided with biack walnut pews, and the aisics and puipit are carpeted.
