ABOLITION AND FREE NEGROES. ^
After the passage of the Missouri act of 1820, cj
Missouri proceeded to frame a constitution, and
F made application for admission into the Union
1 uuder the law. The abolitionists and freeHoilers
of that day opposed the application be- ^
cause the constitution adopted by Missouri for
HI wv/
I bade the introduction or immigration of free
! negroes. Their opposition was so powerful
? and so resolute that a compromise was forced
L in 1821, by the terms of which, Missouri was ^
[ prohibited from denying to free negroes the ^
t right of immigration, of settlement, as a condi- m
L tion precedent to its admission into the Union.
Since that time, several non-slaveholding tj
I States have passed laws forbidding free negroes aj
1 to come within their borders, and the abolition- a,
I ists and freesoilers have not uttered a word of 8j
complaint. They were willing to prevent the
admission of Missouri into the Union rather c<
than permit her to exclude manumitted slaves; ^
but they look on with an approving smile whilst ej
non-slaveholding States exercise that right.
This fact proves the selfishness and hypocrisy tj
of the anti-slavery leaders, and the dishonest C|
foundation of abolition and freesoil sentiments. w
We have been led to make these remarks by
the fast that, some lime ago, a southern genp
tleman, by his will, manumitted a large nuin'
r\f alnvpq and nrovided them the means of ,
(""* ? ' r CJ
settlement in either of the States of Indiana or ^
Illinois. It seems to be doabtful whether the
terms of the will have the effect of manumitting s)
the slaves unless they are permitted to settle in
the States mentioned: whilst the laws of both
v
of those States forbid the introduction of sach
c
persons within their borders. This case has Q
been made public for some time. The aboli- ^
tionists and freesoilers are fully informed of j
it, yet none of them have uttered a com- ^
plaint or taken any action to show their sympathy
for the slaves conditionally manumitted ,
in Georgia. If those slaves had been manumitted
on condition that they should settle in
Virginia or North Carolina, and those two
States had refused them admission, every free- D
Boiler and abolitionist would have become 8
furious and frantic. They care nothing for the r
slave. They hate the slave-owner and the
States which recognize slavery. When they 1
strive to procure the freedom of a slave, they ^
are not actuated by humanity or philanthro- ^
py?they are actuated by the mean desire to ^
injure the owner of the slave, and the wicked J
purpose of fomenting discord and strife. When 1
a southern gentleman manumits his slaves, e
then they cannot injure him; and the slaves
may be pitched into the sea for aught they 1
care. c
We do not mean to censure the laws of In- 1
diaoa or Illinois relative to free negroes. If 1
we were citizens of either of these States we c
would sustain and uphold them, for we believe c
them to be eminently wise and proper. The 1
African race is an inferior race, and slavery '
is its only salvation when it comes in contact *with
the Caucasian. The free negro is the $
most wretched creatare on the continent; and 1
a free negro population is the most worth- (
less, degraded, and troublesome that can *
afflict a people. Every State owes it to
itself either to forbid slavery or to require
thAt every negro within its borders shall have
a master, and all laws permitting manumission
should require as a condition precedent that
means be furnished along with the deed of
manumission to carry the manumitted slave
out of the country within a specified time. If
the negro should be found in the country after
the expiration of that time the deed of manumission
should be void. People may have a
right to set their negroes free, but they have no
right to afflict their neighbors with a pestilential
population.
ARLINGTON BANK.
We copy the following article from the
Washington Union of yesterday, and feel authorised,
by information received from the
most reliable sources, to say, that its representations
as to the character of the gentlemen
engaged in the enterprise, as well as to the
solid basis on which it fs established, are entirely
correct:
" A new banking house has been opened on
the eastern side of Four and a-half street, in
Morfitt's buildings, near Pennsylvania avenue.
It will be known by the name and style of the
'Arlington Bank'?in compliment, we presume,
to George Washington Park Custis, es^.,
of Arlington. The cashier of this institution is
; George F. Shannon, and the president is J. W.
Webb. We learn from the most undoubted authority
that this new financial house has been established
upon a most substantial basis?upon
an adequate canital,in what the now politicallycrushed
'old bullionist' was at one time in the
habit of calling 'the hard.1 In other words, the
capital of the new bank is in the only money
known to the Constitution of the United States,
gold and silver coin. There are gentlemen of
wealth and distinction interested in it_residing in
different parts of the Union. The officers enjoy
an enviable reputation for integrity and excellent
business qualities, and, upon the whole, we
cannot doubt that the bank will prove a convenience
to the public, And, we trust, productive
of profit to all concerned. The five and
ten-dollar notes of the bank are most beautifully
engraved, and, what is of much more importance,
they are redeemable on demand in specie.
We have been consistent in our opposition to
the circulation a* money of promises to pay irredeemable
in coin. They are illegal, and
should be discountenanced by the pnblic, but
notes redeemable in gold, Ann issued by responsible
persons, are as sound and reliable as
those which are put in circulation by chartered
institutions. We hope that the career of the
Bank of Arlington may lie prosperous and
useful."
John Van Benin requests the editor of tbe London
Morning Advtrtiotr to contrsdicl the report,
thst he will attend the anti-slavery conference at
Manchester. He adds, thst though he freely expresses
his feehnga on the subject of slavery at
home, he entertains no ides of taking part in the
disousaios* on the subject elsewhere.

NORTH CAROLINA ELECTION. | t},
The Wilmington (N. C.) Journal thus speaks |
' the election in that State: " We feel, at
ngth, justified in announcing the election of
houias Bragg, esq, the democratic caudidate je
r governor, in this State. This much we con- m
der as certain, suflicieut returns having been te
ceived to place the result beyond a doubt. ot
urther returns must determine the exact ma- CJ
rity. It may be over two thousand, but we ar
> not think it will. It cannot be under one ^
ousand. However, that is a matter which we 0f
vait with commendable patience, now that
e main fact is determined. Taking into con- j-(
deration all the circumstances?the style of at
ectioneering adopted, and the unparalleled ^
:ertions made, by Qen. Dockery and his cr
lends, we look upon this as even a more de- w
sive proof of the democratic character of the jn
ate, than the election of Governor Reid.
If our opponents have failed to carry the
ate this time, there is very little prospect for tj(
iein again for a considerable period. It seems ^
bo conceded, and may, indeed, be looked ^
)on as certain, that the democrats will have a 0j
ajority in the legislature on joint ballot. ^
bat majority will necessarily be small, not, we cc
link, over ten ; time and returns must show,
hat there will be such a majority, we have no jjj
anuer of doubt. During the week which has C(
rased since the election, we have been cau- ga
ous in the expression of any decided opinion
i to the result, as we are always anxious to
raid misleading our readers, or giving occaon
for hopes that the full returns may not sua- ^
tin. Our present announcement may, we feel te
;rtain, be implicitly relied upon, It is a clear a,
emocratic victory, carrying with it both gov- v<
rnor and legislature, putting the quietus uppn cc
le convention move, and securing the elec- Si
on of democratic United States senators; it is tl]
ertainly, as some of our jubilant cotemporaries
ould say,' Glory enough for one day 11
OUR GRATITUDE TO THE "WASHINGTON
UNION."
c
We were really relieved after seeing the ^
barge of the Rochester Democrat, that we
ad been influenced by actual "receipts of w
xecutive favors 1" iu our support of the con- w
titutional veto of the President of the River T
nd Harbor bill, to And the Washington Union ti
indicating us from so unjust and improper a r<
harge by the commencement of a publication
f a seventy-column advertisement. Surely, in C{
bis instance, even so unprincipled a sheet as e
be Rochester Democrat will admit we have not e
ad our share of "executive favors." P
fj
We thank the Washington Union for so
imely a rebuke to the Rochester Democrat. a

AMERICAN LOVE OF TITLES. o
A joke has been going the lounds of the is
cwspapers about a Dutchman, who was en- n
aged in ferrying passengers over a western sl
iver and who became so accustomed to hearing
hose who passed over, called by high-sounding u
itles, that when he encountered one who called ft
limself plain mister, he was so surprised and 0
elighted that he carried him over the river 11
ree of cost, und told hiin that ho was the only j
ankee gentleman that he had seen for a long (
ime who was not either " his honor," a gen- c
ral, a colonel, or at least a solemn captain.
There is much truth in the Dutchman's renark.
Considering that this is a republican (
:ountry, and that the Constitution says, first? n
hat " no title of nobility shall be granted by n
he United States ; and no person holding any ,
ffice of profit or trust under them, shall, with- h
>ut the consent of the Congress, accept of any v
>resent, emolument, office, or title, of any kind
whatever from any king, prince, or foreign
State"; and secondly?that " no State shall j
frant any title of nobility"?considering these /
hings, it is somewhat singular that such an in- li
srdinate love of titles should prevail in this 1)
jountry. 1
Ambitious men love distinction, and all men
ire more or less ambitious. Ambition ruus in t
? - I
rarious channels; lis successes uecume uinum- j,
ions, and those distinctions are indicated by ,
particular marks or titles. e
There are certain offices to which titles must n
necessarily attach. It is absolutely necessary, 1
ind it is very useful, that such titles sboold be
assigned. For instance ; in the army there "
sre various grades?the general, the brigadiergeneral,
the colonel, the lieutenant-colonel, the ?
major, the captain, the lieutenant, the sergeant, 1
:he corporal. In the army these distinctions 1
ire necessary. It is needless to enter into a
tedious argument to show that necessity.
Every man of good sense will, at once, perceive
it. Nor would we invade tho almost ludicro- ,
solemn sacredness of the militia system in the
States. The militia officers cling to their titles
with brave tenacity. The general is a general; (
the colonel, a colonel; the major, a major; and ,
the captain, a captain. They have been elected ,
?gravely and solemnly elected. It matters not <
whether their FalstafT regiments are mustered
with, or without arms, with umbrellas or sticks, '
bare-footed, or well shod, they hare still been 1
elected and they are entitled to their title*.
But there are a great many sham-militia gen- i
erals, and a grefct many more spurious colonels. <
If a decent looking man travels, some polite '
fellow-passenger who has occasion to spei.k to '
him salntes him as Colonel, and he prondly assumes
that title. Here, in Washington, every
man is at least a colonel.
Rut w<* nn* pome to civil titles. "His Ex- '
coHency!"* That is either the title of the President
or of a Governor. " His Honor I" That J
is the title of either a member of Congress, a {
Judge, or a member of the New York Legislature?for
wo see that it is assigned in New
York to the members of the Legislature.
There are such things as professors. These
professors arc men who are distinguished for
their attainments in science,and in compliment, ,
have received from authorized institutions the
honorable title of Professor. But the whole system
is thrown into ridicule by teachers of music,
of dancing, drawing, jumping, boxing, wrestling
and magnetism. Every mountebank
claims the title of professor, and so advertises
l:
(I1IIIOCU.
From time immemorial we here had doctor!;
but now a days every man who dmwi a tooth
or eradicates a com ambitiously claims the
title of Doctor. Wherever there is a genuine
coin, there also will be found a counterfeit.
The professors ought to be called professors,
the teachers of dancing, dancing masters., Doctors
Ought to be called doctors, and dentists
dentists. They are just as respectable with, as
without their appropriate titles.
But we wiU return to those other titles?
*
ose of tho public men and officers of the
m n try.
In speaking of the President of the Uuited ?
ates, what is the use of saying?" llis Excelncy."
Of a governor of a State, the same a '
ay be said. And what is the use of charac- (n
rizing a member of Congress, as "the Honable
Mr." so-and-so. The one is no more ti?
ccellent, or the other no more honorable, than w?
ly body else. The judge should have a title? an
e title of judge?but wherein is the necessity
'calling liini "His honor?" 'ie
The independence of this country was estab- du
ihed seventy-eight years ago. The great men
id eminent patriots who founded it, abhorred
ties of nobility, and they showed that abhor- W(
ice by interdicting them in the Constitution th<
ilich they framed; but we are gradually undo- so
g what they did. We cannot by law confer de
:les, but by courtesy we confer many. The
iople elect representatives and then confer otl
:les on them. Those titles aro as enduring as
e seals to a deed, and esteemed as sacred as k
e truths of religion. What is this but an aping |)ri
nobility? It is anti-republican. It is aris- "t
cratic. More than all this, it is spurious and pu
mnterfeit. W|
It has become the custom of the country, and fe<
ie others we have fallen into the habit of re- dr
ignizing these titles. But this we say, and ^
,y truly, it is a bad habit. th(

provided with pistons, as a common it ?*id<

produced by the admission of a certain qoantity
of alcohol aud of atmospheric air, each lime ?p?-ut
