Stockton did not succeed in petting himself elected to the U. S. Senate from New-Jersey, yesterday. Another trial will take place to-day. In Couarrs?. Yealrrday, There was much talk, liut little action. The Senate had up the Postage Reduc? tion bill, and made one good amendment, rejecting a number. Very little was ac? complished. The bill remains in Commit? tee of the Whole. The House talked about Steamships and Mails, and indicated a disposition to extend the Steamship Mail system. But little was effected. ? Ten day, of the Session remain, and everything is yet undone. How much must be badly done during the last two days! W bat it all Henna. The Buffalo Commercial Advertiser* whose Editor is understood to hold a very intimate personal relation to President 1 'illmore, has a letter from Washington, conspicuously paraded under its Editorial head, purporting to set fwrth the reasons why Hamilton Fill was and should have been defeated. The upshot of his long story is as follows?Mr. Pi 11 more is now the strongest Whig candidate in other States fol next President?but Mr. Fillmore seems to be weak in his own State because the Legislature don't approve the Fugitive Slave Law?this attitude of "armed neu? trality ' must be broken down, or Mr. Fill moTe will not be likely to receive the nom? ination?wherefore Mr. Fish must be de? feated unless the Legislature will pass gome sort of Varnum or Thompson resolu? tions! (If the logic seems to limp, how can im help it ?) The letter-writer says : " It it ? v possible to overrate the importance of hav? ing Mr. Dl< BIMSOsCs placefdled by alborotigh-i/olng Union man. ' One of the greatest obstacles u? ihe rulttvs tfoa oi ssolhagaef coacord and fraternal regard between the North and South Is the unreasonable and wicked conduct of Ii.? Abolition pinion of the Whig partv of the Empire State. Mr. Hll kMAN evidently comprehended al' this, and couid not conscientiously emieur In the election of Mr. Ki?h UBtll he had purged lumeelf of the imputation of sympslhia inn with tiie Klee Boilers. " I know Htvii ton Kish well His career in Congress made me aci|uai..ted with his estimable qualities, arid lha palrlodc and honorable motives that uniformly actuate hin. 1 do not doubt that ids course in li e Senate would he emi? nently wise and conservative.

If the Whigs of our State are willing I see ? U. S. SBBttonhip for >ix years BOW theirs thrown to the winds on such ground8 in.i1 lor Mich purposes, they know how to n.ukt- i mauiiest. They will further know how to elect a k Silver Gray' U. S. Senator \\i ii' ver they shall have imbibed a taste - . Mich a peifoininiK e. Rut if the Silver <ira\s are willing to act upon lieh motives, it was base, it was cowardly on their part, t c&st a majority i.f their votes for Hamil? ton Pish and throw upon one man the re? sponsibility of defeating him. They ought t" have faced the music in solid platoon, and not left Mr. Reek man 'alone in his lit bei I ion in the Blood. The lower law jjurnals and speech makers are indulging iu unmeasured defa? mation of the 1'eople of Massachusetts, especially those of Roston. on what seem to us very insufficient grounds. It is very true that a large majority of the Bustonians detest the Fugitive Slave Law and mean to have nothing to do with it; but it is not true that they bore any part in the recent rescue of the black Shadrach Sherwood, claimed as a fugitive slave, from his jailors, nor that they even knew anything of it until the af? fair w as entirely over. What, then, have they done to subject them to such torrents of abuse ? The negro was arrested, put on trial for his liberty, and was probably in danger of losing it, when a hundred or two of his colored brethren helped him to get away. This is the whole case. Proba'ely nine-tenths of the citizens of Boston knew nothing of the matter?not even that this alleged fugitive ever existed ? until after he had escaped. And this is not the first, nor the i-f'y-first, case of an alleged fugitive Sla\ e bcirg aided lo escape from his cap? tors. Why, then, is Boston singled out for su?.h an o*etpowi|| of pro-Slavery indigna? tion ? ? But Boston is iw ! to denunciation. She endured more of it. and far hotter. st\euiy or eighty ^ears ago. and it did n si seem to set her back a ureat deal. We take the following specimen from The Ptnnsyl' tMSkti Journal (by Wn.. and HkOB. Brad? ford. Philadelphia.; oi June J-.1U, 1775. It will be found interesting, apposite and in? structive : By his Evcet.ercy. Tbe Hon. THOMAS G * 0 1 Bee,; Governor and Commander in Chief, in and over his Majesty's Prov? ince of AfussutAswrts-iKik sud Vice Aaiutrel of the l erne. A PROCLAMATION W'HERKAS the infatuated Multitude, who t Y have long suffered themselves to he con ducted by certsin well known lucendiariet and Traitors, in a fatal Progression of Crimea, againtt the coDJtUutinrjal Authority of the States, have at length proceeded to arowed Rebellion; and tbe good Krtecta which wore expected to arise frjm the Patience and Lenity of the king s lijverc. meet, have been often frustrated, and are now rendered hopeless, by the Influence o! the tarns evil Counsels, it only remains foe toots wit > a- < intrusted with tupreme Hule, as well for the Pan ishment of the guilty, as the Protection of the weil affected, to prove they do not bear the Sword in rain. . The Infringements which have been committed upon the moat aacred Rights of the Crown and People of Great Britain, are too many to enume? rate on one aide, and are all too atrocious to be palliated on the other. All unprejudiced People who have been Witnesses of thfc lato Transac? tion, in this and the neighboring Provinces, will lind upon a transient Review, Marks of Premedi? tation and Conspiracy that would justify the ful nesa of Chastisement And even those who are least acquainted with Farts, cannot fail to receive a just Impression of their F.normity, io Propor? tion as they discover the Arts and Assiduity by which they have been falsified or concealed. The Authors of the present unnatural Revolt, never daring to trust their Cause or their Actions, to the Judgment of an impartial Public, or even to the dispassionate Reflection of their Followers, have uniformly placed their chief Confidence in the Suppression of Truth And while indefatigable and shameless Pains have been taken to obstruct every Appeal to the real Interest of the People of Americ a the grossest forgeries, calumnies, and absurdities that ever insulted human under? standing, have been imposed upon theircredulity. The press, that distinguished appendage 3f pablf s liberty, arid when fairly and impartially employed its best support, has been invariably prostituted to the most contrary purposes i The animated lan? guage of ancient and virtuous times, calculated to vindicate and promote the just rights and in terest of mankind, have been applied to counte? nance the most abandoned violation of :bose si cred blessings and not only from the flagitious prints, bot from the popular harranpnea of the times, men have been taught to depend upou ac? tivity in treason, for the security ot their persons and properties; till to compleat the horrid pro? fanation of terms, and of ideas, the name of Qod has been introduced in the pulpits, to excite and justify devastation and massacre. The minda of men have been thus gradually prepared for the worst extremities, a number of armed persons, to the amount of many thousands, assembled on the nineteenth of April last, and from behind walls, and lurking holes, attacked a detachment of the King's troops, who not ex? pecting to consummate an act of phrenzy, unpre? pared for vengeance, and willing to decline it, made use of their arms only in their own defence. S'nre that period the rebels, deriving ontidence from impui.ity, have added intuit to outrage, have repeateo'y lired opon the King's ships and sub j< i ts. with cannon and small arms, have posses? sed the roads, and other c iinnxini ations by which the town nf Boston was supplied with provision!; and with a preposterous parade of military ar? rangement, they affected to hold the army be? sieged . while part of their body make daily and indiscriminate invasions upon private property, and with a wantonness of cruelty ever incident to lawless tumult, carry depredation and distress wherever they turn their steps. The actions of the l'.'th of April are of such notoriety, as m ist baffle all attempts to contradict them, and the tlamet of building! and other p-operty from the island! and adjacent country, for SOOtS weeks past, spretd a melancholy confirmation of the t<ihse<|uent assertions. In this exigency of complicated calamities, I avail myself of tho Inst effort within the bounds of my duty, to spare the effusion of blood , to of? fer, and I do hereby in hit Majesty's name, offer find promise his most ? us pardon to all per? sons who shall lorthwith lay down their arms, and return to the duties of peaceable tubjectt, ex? cepting only from the benefit of tuch pardon S'imvf/ Adams and John Hanrm-k, whote of frncei are of too flagitious a nature to admit of any other contideration than that of condign pun? ishment. And to the end that no person within the limits of this proffered mercy may plead ignorance of the contequencei of refusing it, 1 by these pres ents proclaim, not only the persons above named and excepted, but til their adherents, attociates and abettors, meaning to comprehend in those terms, all and every person, and person! of whit class, denomination, or description loever, who have appeared in arms against tho King !govern? ment, and shall not lay down the same aa afore? mentioned ; and likewise all such as shall 10 take arm? after the date hereof, or who sha 1 in any? wise protect or conceal such offenders, or assist them with money, provision, cattle, arms, ammu nition, carriages, or any other necessary for sub? sistence or offence; or shall hold secret corros p< ndf-nce with them by letter, message, signal, or otherwise to be rebels and traitors, and as such bo traatad, AND WH B ItB AS, during the continutnee of the present unnatural rebellion, justice) cannot ba administered by the common law of the land, tha course whereof h?s, Kra lone timo pttt, been violently ImptsJttj, lad whoiiy interrupted; L'om whence results a necessity tor usinc and exer? cising the Law Martial i I have therefore thought tit, by the authority vested in me, by the royal I harter of this proviuce, to publish, and I do here by publish, proclaim arid order the use and eter. eise of the Law .Martial, within and throughout this province, for so long time as the present un? happy occasion shall necessarily require , waereol til pem i.t aie he-eby required to take notice, Utd govern thems-.lv, ?, ns trail to maintain order ar d regularity among the peacea'nie inhabitants ol the province, r.s to resist, or encounter ami subdue the rebels ard traitors above described by tuch aa shall be called upon for these purposes.

So far from evincing any such lair spirit, Mr. Sewari used h.s power in every instance to reward St ica>d men, even when to do so it waa necessary to mortify and i'.sult Vice President Fil'ra ire, is in the caje of tl a late Collector ol Buffalo Oar. i hi S.l us Oturi Rt narks.

Wr would gladly have avoid? ed the necessity. Hisoriginal complaint expressly was that "For a aeries of years this [SDrarQraj) branch of the party had been ty*'<m<i'.icmlty ottra>'itei." We showed by facts that there was no truth at all in this complaint?that fully two-thirds of all the more desirable nomi? nations and appointments have been given to that very wing of the party which is now bolting and breaking up because it cannot have everything fixed to its liking. Our correspondent does not pretend to de? ny thi-?. But he falls back on the other branch of his assertion, and says that the Conserva? tive Whigs have 'in hardly a single in? stance' been nominated or appointed when the power was in the hands of the 'Sew ar<i men.' Now suppose this were the fact?what of it? The Silver Grays have had two thirds of the desirable offices, to be sure ; but it was very mean of the 1 Seward men' not to give them a go"d share of the other third!

But. even though his charge would amount to nothing if proved, yet it is nev? ertheless false?grossly false. Mr. Fill more v.as heartily urged for Vice-Presi? dent in H44 by 'Seward men,' and what little opposition was made to him from this State came mainly from the most conser? vative men in the Whig ranks?Chief Jas tice Spencer. Dudley Seiden, dec. He was soon after taken up and unanimously nomi? nated for Governor. He might have been nominated the next term if he had chosen tu be, but he was wiser than those who c laimed to he his friends, and declined.? John Young was then nominated?never a * Seward man.' and now the bead and front of Silver Grayism. The men active and inlluential in procuring his nomination were nearly all -Seward men.'and the friends of Gov. Seward had a clear preponderance in the Convention. Hamilton Fish, whom nobody tficn accused of 'Seward ism,' was nominated for Lieut. Governor. The next year (1847) the Whig State Convention contained a large majority of what are termed 1 Seward men,' as was repeatedly proved. Millakd Fillmore for Controller and HAMILTON Fish for Lieut. Governor htaded the list of candi? dates it prosented. Chas. B. Stuart, a vindictive anti Seward man, was nominated I for State Engineer. 'Systematically ostra J died.1 did you sa\ ?

'Systematically ostracised.' did you observe .' The next year (1849) the Whig State Convention stood about two 1 Seward men' to ore of the other stripe, as was proved on repeated divisions. Among its nominees were Joshua A. Spencer for Justice of the Court of Appeals, and Samuel Ste? vens lor Attorney General?the latter by a unanimous vote, the former over George Wood?all three known to be anything but ' Seward men.' 1 Ostracised,' eh ! The next year (1650) it was pretty thoroughly proved that Gov. Seward's friends had a large majority of the Conven? tion; and, as none of them bolted, they nominated as they thought best. Their candidates, all told, were Washington Hunt for Governor, Georoe J. Cornell for Lieut. Governor, Ebknezkr Blarelt for Canal Commissioner, Abner Baker, Jr. for State Prison Inspector and Wessell S. Smith for Clerk of the Court of Appeals. Of these certainly Messrs. Cornell and Smith were conspicuous for the bitterness of their hostility to Go*/. Seward, and not more than one or two bad ever been re paHed as 'Seward men.' Such is the matner in which the Silver Oroya have beer: 'ostracized' in our State. Even when they had th Fl left! G ..ern ment in their Lands, and were aipewediag many of the very best Pootnoaeaera and Kever.ue officers in the Sta;e for no :rirne but that of being ?

Seward excluded Conner\ ative Whigs from appointments when Governor. If that should be said, it won Id be false. The d iet appointments of Gov. Seward in this ( ity were given to David B.

What Radical Whigs were appoint.d by him to post* of equal emi MOJCC and honor ?One word with Mr. Silver Grsy, and we let him run. He complains that Mr. Fillmore was thwarted by G.>v. Seward in the appointment of a Collector at BufTalo, and in the same breath explains tbe ap? pointment of Messrs. Maxwell. Hone, Tallruadge. dec in this City by asserting that QoT. Seward was powerful at Washington than he afterward became. But if he will look at the dates, he will find that the appointment of Collector at Buffalo was made before a part if not all in this city ' He shoots to hit if the game be a deer but to miss if it be a ralf. If two-thirds of the best appointments are made from the Silver Gray ranks, that ?roves that Gov. Seward has no inlluence; but if one 1 Seward man' happens to get a place, that proves that the Silver Grays are ' svstematically ostracised.'
