The manifestations of dissatisfaction of the lPie democrats, on account of the President'. a 'l-lty fr freesoilers and abolitionists, han used many of the prominent party papers .voted to the support of the Administration t: attempt to eaplain the motive of the recent Ex isculye appointments. Those journals ascribt n athe President a desire to cement the demo. eora., ehlle others, shrinking from the task t defense, have taken refuge in a bold denial o the feqt that there have been any freesoilelc appointed to office. ence it Is that the whlob sfiuesue and patronage of the Government haoo been usd to build up the freesoil, upon the ruia of the Union, party. A few weeks ago we oemplained bitterly o. the ppohsntment of Win. J.

Putt.armtPlt'tA, July l25. Our city has been in a state of semi-excite ment for the last few days. growing out of a case under the fugitive slave law. The slave was claimed by Mr. J. C. Howard, a respectable gentleman of Cecil county, i3 i., and his claim so completely made out that the U. S ('otnmis sioner, Mr. E. 1). Tugrahanl,habu no difticulty in ·canting the usual ecrtiicate. remanding the slave to the custody of 1 . , Marshal. with di rections to see him safely returned into Mr. ITowanrl's keeping, and to protect the latter from all attempt- tint ltight be stide to leprive him of his property. The abolitionists, fialing themselves thu, foiled by the clear justice of the clnimant's case, and the decision of the Comonis nicner, procured two writs of habraos corl'tts, one ot'which was served on Mrt, tloward. auit tlhe other on Mr. Wynkoop. the U. S. MIarshal, re qluiring them to produce the body of the slave bIefore the Court of Quarter Sessions. This writ the Marshal, acting under the direction of his counsel, refused to obey. and declined pro ducing the negro, on the ground that he had been commnitted to his custody by a Superior Court. The Judlges of the State Court held that the production of the negro, unldr the writ of lhablt .; corpul,', must he made before any in quiry as to the oase could be gone into, and on the \lar'hal's c.ntinue I refusal toolbey the writ. hie was. by order f tlhe Court. taken into cus iIc,i aI tinmoitted to prisnt for contempt Tihe oiiject of the plarties who have taken out the writ i- lndouhtedly to get the negro out of the M.t'.hal: ' reutoly, have hint committed thr ome 1,tinor breach of State ohw, anI then in ano of the thontanl ways that the Itw let I',c opetn obtain lis release, and tranvstprt hinm ibe yondl his master's reach. In this ecae, it it in tendetd by the MIarshal's counsel that he would Ie respon'ible to the owner ter the full value of the .lave, even tltouglh hisq escape was act-,tm ptished by meanswhich he hiatL no power to re iAst. The United States Curt subsequently issued a writ of habeas rcrpuis for the holly ,'t Marshal Wynkotop. but afterwards ,luaslhedl it, thus acknowledging the legality iof the action halI hy the State Court. If this be so. the Mar shal willhave no resort lut to remain in prison or purge himself of the contempt lby producing the -lave.
