Mr. Helper isa native of North Corolina, who, as the Yegult of careful observation and extensive inquiry, has Yeached the very obvious and just conclusion that human slavery is the great primary curse and peril of the South, Impeding ts progress in morals, intelligence, industry Ith. is conclusion, with the facts on which it 4s founded, is embodied in his book, entitled “The Im- pending Crisis of the South”—a work everywhere re- ceived and hailed by tho advocates of free labor as one of the most impregnable demonstrations of the justice of their cause and the vital importance of its triumph to our patiodal and general well being. Were every citizen in the facts embodied in this book, we feel Confident that slavery would soon peacefully pass away, Tle @ republican triumph in 1860 would be morally cer- in. It is believed that this testimony of a Southern man, ‘born and reared under the influence of slavery, will bo More generally listened to and profoundly’ heeded, ‘whether in the slave or in the free States, than an equally ‘able and conclusive work written by a Northern man. And it is vory desirable, therefore, that a cheap compend of its contents, fitted for gratuitous circulation, be now made anc generally diffused in those States—Pennsylva- nia, New Jersey, Indiana and Iiincis—which are to de- Gido the next Presidcutial contest.

Kennedy, Abram Wakeman, W. Curtis Noyes: Both the original book and the “Compen- dium” are to be found at Burdick’s, the pub- lisher, formerly No. 8 Spruce, now No. 145 Nassau street. Any person going there can purchase a copy, as we did. There is stilla large stock on hand. An immense sale has been already effected, to say nothing of the vast number of copics distributed gratuitously. If the names of members of Congress which ap- pear in the foregoing extract have not been signed by their permission, our columns are open to them to say 80, and to disclaim the sen- timents of this trensonable book. But till they @o so the public will hold them responsible. Perhaps some are scared at the consequences of their folly--the tragedy whose first act was played at Harper's Ferry, whose nd act is performed at Charlestown to-day, and whose third act is still in the womb of futurity. They ave good reason to be scared at the effects produced by a book to which they are publicly represented as having Jent their names. For, what does the book teach? It teaches that slavery at the South © must be throttled,” and that if it cannot be put Gown by moral force and by legislative enact- ments, it must be overthrown “by violence; and whatever consequences may follow, they (ihe abolitionists) are determined to have it, one way or the other.’ There is no ambiguity in this; i¢ 4s as plain as one of John Brown’s pikestaffs. In the name of the abolitionists, the writer of the book swears a solemn oath, that if slavery be not abolished, they “will fight till from their bones the flesh be hacked.” Probably if the imsurrection in Virginia had not followed his publication, there would be no sneaking attempt to shirk responsibility; but that makes the matter somewhat serious for weak nerves. Let those members of Congress, therefore, whose names have been affixed to the treasona- ble document without their consent, and all those who are scared at the result, come for- ward at once aud disavow all connection with it. Seortinc Asrecr or THE ExxEction.—It is stated that no political event of late years has created so much excitement among betiing men. as the election to-day. More than half a million of dollars will change hands on the re- pult. People who have laid wagers on the election will remember that they have thereby disfranchised themselves, and if they vote will be liable to fine and imprisonment. Cortovs Cross-Reapmncs.—Some curious cross-readings have been furnished by the carelessness of the bill posters. One dead wall has the following significant announce- ments:—“Negro minstrelsy, for Mayor George Opdyke.” “To be sold at auction at the Merchants’ Exchange, Wednesday, Nov. 7, William F. Havemeyer.” Quatirtcations or Vorers.—Uniess your Mame appears upon the registry list the In- Speotors will be compelled by law te refuse your ballot. Should you still wish to vote, you must prepare an affidavit setting forth that you sre a legal voter; that you wore prevented from registering your name, Stating the reason, and this affidavit must be verified by two householders in the ward. Intsumen’s Sensk or SMELL.—The Irish are proverbial for the acuteness of their sense of emell. They can smell a nigger across the Al- feghanies almost. Let them turn their noses in the direotion of Tammany, and try whether dbey can smell anything there, Dow’r Fiout.—There is a great deal of bitter- ness between the two sections of the democracy ‘bout the Mayoralty election, and there may fhe some violence at the polls to-day.

Ricuonp, Va., Dec. 5, 1859. ‘The Legislature of Virginia organized to-day. Governor Wise’s message reviews the Harper's Ferry affair at great length. It speaks of tho spirit of fanati- cism and one idea of the abolitionists which has feomed to madden whole masses of one entire section of the couniry, which enters into their religion, education, politics, prayers, Courts of Jus- tice and LIegislatures; which has trained up three generations in moral and social habits of hatred to the masters of African slaves in the United States, but turns not upon slavery elsewhere; which would have sent @ rescue to assassins, robbers, murderers and traitors, whom it has sent to felon’s graves. Unless the numeri- cal majority shall coase to violate the confederate faith, ‘and cease to disturb our peace, to destroy our lives and Property, and to deprive us of all the protection and re- dress under the perverted forms and distorted workings of the Union, we must take up arms. The iasue is too essential to be compromised any more. We cannot stand such ingults and outrages as these of the Harper's Ferry, without sutfering worse than death as citizens, and without suffering in dishonor the death of a Stato. It is not to be denied that we have many sound and sincere friends in the non-slayeholding States; but the conserva- tive elements are passive, whilst the fanatical are active, and the former is fast diminishing, whilst the latter is in- creasing in numbers and force. With regard to the insurgeuts, he says it is a mockory to call them monomaniacs. i thoy wore, then a large por- tion of the people of many of the States are monomaniacs, ‘The leader himself spurned this plea, and it was not put in upon the trials. They were prompted by the evil spiits of incendiarism which demoralized a nume- rous host of enemies behind them, who now sym- pathized with their deeds before the world. These hired them, without themselves incurring the risk of their erimes, and no wonder they now sympathise with them even to madness, and that John Brown despised the hypocritical cant of their pretence that he was insane. The execution of our laws is necessary to warn future vic- tims not again to be the tool of this sympathy. We have friends or we have not in the States whence these invaders came. Thoy must now be not only conservative, but active: to prevent the invader coming. It was impossibie for so: much of such sympathy to exist without exciting bad men to actiou—rescue or revenge. On this he acted. He has been compelled by the apprehension of the most un- paralleled border war to place the State in as full panoply of military defence as if foreign enemies invaded the United States. Indeed, one most irritating feature of this predatory war is that it hag its seat in British provinces, which furnish asylums for our fugitives and send them and their hired outlaws upon. us from depots and rendezvous in the bordering States: ‘There is no danger from our slaves or colored people The slaves taken refused to take arms, and the first man Killed was a respectahle free negro while running from the philanthvopists who came to liberate the black race. In closing the message h2 says—We must rely upon our- selves, fight for peace, organize and arm, demand of each State what position she means to maintain in the futare in respect to slavery and the provision of the con- stitution and Jaws of the United States, and the provision of the State laws for its protection in our federal relations, and be governed according to the manner in which the demand may be answered. ‘Weare in arms. With segard to the reports and rumors of organized conspiracies to obstruct our laws, the Gover- nor says they wero from so many sources, 80 simultano- ous, so far apart, from persons so unlike in eyi- dences of education, they could be from no conspiracy to hoax; but he relied not so much upon them as upon the earnest continued appeal of sympathi vers with crimes. Let us defend our own position or yield at once. Tet us have action and ro- solve upon a definite settlement. No more temporizing with the constitution—no more compro- mises. The other convicts await execution, and will be executed unless the General Assembly orders other- wise. This will meet the open invasion but acts only on individual convicts, and don’t settle the question of our peace and protection in the future. It remains only for me to offer myself, all that I am and all that J have to the Commonwealth, whenever she may order me or mine in service when my term of office closes. Tho second message makes detailed recommendations, aud alludes to State matters generally. 7 chusetts Town Elections. EDFORD MUNICIPAL ELECTION.

President Geffrard Supported at the North and South—De- cline of Sectional Complaints, and General Progress—Ne- gro Emigrants Landing from the United States—Trade at | Jeremie—Reli¢f to the Sufferers.by,the Late Storm, dc. From Cape Haytion and Aux Cayes private despatches and the newspapers refer to splondid displaya.in honor of the President’s murdered daughter and in gratitude for the President’s escape from death. At both places the ceremonies were well attended, and the easily influenced Haytiens wept at the sad fate of Madame Blanford, and shuddered as the priests described the atrocities that would have attended a successful revolution. The same crowd would have shouted vivas to a victorious Prophete, especially at the Cape, for tho General was the darling of the north, and there he looked for his strongest support in men and sympathy. ‘The North, too, has of late complained that they havenot their share in the government of the whole country. Even under Soulouque, when complaints were dangerous the North permitted itself to be heard. With the present |, Mies freedom of speech their assertions are louder, but, fortu- nately, under the judicious rule of ‘le bon” Geffrard, they are not go well founded. The interior aifairs of the {sland are freely di |, and the remarks of the United States newspapers are commented upon with singular modera- tion, the more so as these remarks often contain protty hard cuts, and, worse ets true ones. That Hayti is advancing in intelligence and wealth is be- yond a question, and our President exerts all his influence ‘and that of the State in aid of any enterprise that may pro- mote civilization. Many young men are educated in Ea- rope, especially in France; the general government each year sends a certain number of children to the best French Schools at its own expense. When the news reached us that the first children sent to Europe had reached their several destinations in safety, there were great rejoicings, and all looked hopefully to the future. Perhaps another L’Ouverture is receiving his education—a man who, with reason, signed himself first of the blacks. ‘Tue emigration movement excites the attention of the government, and already we have received a numbor of American negroes, especially from New Orleans. Until some occupation {s found the government supports the emigrants, and to each is offered a portion of public domain totarm. They are, moreover, exempted from mili- tary duty, except a8 members of the National Guards. Children, however, born on the island, are not to enjoy this advantage. At Jeremie busines has been brought toa stand still by the discovery of an organized band of thieves, about seven Jeagues from the city. A detachment of about two hun- drea soldiers dispersed the robbers. The woods, how- ever, gave them refuge, and but four prisoners were taken. Collee is coming into market in large quantities, but not go freely as usual at this season. The general govern- ment has despatched agents to the Southern district, do- vastated by the late hurricane, with pccuniary aid’ and kand encouragements.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. My name appearing in your valuable paper of yesterday morning, in connection with an “alleged quarrel” at Del | monico’s on Saturday with John Ling, I desire simply to. state the facts, which are as follows:—I never had any *) quarrel with Ling, and had no idea he intended to take my life, which he did by assauiting me, as I enterod the house to arrange some business matters with some oiher par- ties, Without any warning Ling struck me in the face with his-pistol, stunning me and cutting my face. He then inquired if T'was armed, at the same time Renvecint: the revolver, cocked, and peinted it at my breast. I sei the pistol, holding my hand under the hammer, and threw him upon the floor, thus saving my life. ‘The police then came in and took from Ling the pistol, and separated us. ‘This is a plain and truthful statement of the occurrence.
