From the National Intelligencer.
African Slave Trade.
Some days ago we published an extract
from correspondence addressed to the New
York Journal of Commerce from the west
coast of Africa, and treating incidentally on
the subject of the suppression of the African
slave trade. The facts therein stated threw
light on the causes which operate to produce
the difference in the number of slave-ships
captured by the .British and American squad-rons
respectively, and relieved the latter from
possible unfavorable inferences on that ac
count. We publish below an extract from a
letter addressed to a gentleman in this city
by an American naval officer on the African
coast on the same subject, and as it appears
tending to the same conclusions :
" 1 will now give you a few facts respect-ing
our operation on the slave coast, that
you may sec some of the difficulties attend-ing
the subject, easy as it appears to people
at home. There is a vast difference between
urithing a thing done properly and support-ing
the person so doing it, when the act in-volves
a political responsibility. In some
such category our officers are frequently
found. Speeches arc made in Congress and
ernor and Chancellor. Ho was appointed
by President Taylor, tlovernor ol Minnesota,

the facts? A ship is seized on the coast of

S. Judges in California, but, also, declined
the appointment. In 1858, he was elected a
Member of the present House of lleprcsenta-tives.
Eanman's "Dictionary of Congress," says:
" In politics, Mr. Pennington has ever been
a Whig, and it was during his administration
as Governor, that the famous broad seal con- [
troversy occurred in New Jersey. In politics
now, he is a moderate Republican, decidedly
conservative in principle end spirit, a firm |

sent to the United States, and by law to the
port from whence she cleared, if this can be
ascertained, and in four or five months from
her seizure on this coast, she is back hero

custom-bouse papers apparently asperl'ectas
need be, and her intentions as evident as
light. We have just now a case in point:

The New Party Movement.
Address of the National Union Men of X. York
to their [-Wow-Citizens of the United States.
A crisis has arrived in the history of par-ties.
Patriotism demands that the sober, re-flecting
men, of all names and associations,
should rally and unite to rescue our coun-try
from impending dangers. Men of ex-treme
views, both North and South, regard-less
of the great bond of union and protec-tion
which the Constitution secures, have
flushed their disunion measures to such
ongths that the Btl bility of our institutions
is threat med, and unless a speedy arrest is
made it is impossib:e to exaggerate the dis-aster
which the Republic will suffer.
Our government was formed in a spirit of
concession and forbearance. A number of
sovereigt; and independent States, of com-mon
origin, language, and religion, with di-verse
domestic institutions and internal pol-icy,
with various climate productions and re-sources,
formed a solemr. league antl cove-nant,
under the form of a Federal Constitu-tion,
by which they became one people, one
country,with a national identity of interest
and destiny. The Constitution was framed
to protect each S'.t.te in the enjoyment of all
its rights, with the knowledge that the policy
of each State might in all things be regula-ted
by its own Government, provided always
that it does not interfere with the rights and
principles of a sister State. But lor this un-derstanding
the Confederacy, which is now
the light and hope of freedom in the world,
could not have been formed. When that
principle is ruthlessly trampled upon, or
basely ignored by the General Government,
or the people in their sovereign capacity as
electors, the ends for which the Union was
formed will have signally failed. Disunion
will thi:n have beonn in fact, and the catas-trophe
cannot long be delayed.
Already the direful influence of this unholy
war is felt in the disruption of religious in-sunpoi-
ter of the Union, and an advocate for
laving aside all subjects that may disturb \ Mnco> UIld,er circumstances stronger in some

Senator Davia's Resolutions.
[Offered m Senate of the U. .S'., Ft': 2.]
Mr. Davis submitted tho following resolu-tions,
which were read:
1. Resolved, That, in the adoption of the
Federal Constitution, the States adopting tho
samo acted severally as free and independent
sovereignties, delegating a portion of their
powers to be exercised by the Federal Cov-ernment
for the increased security ol each
against dangers, domestic as well as loreign;
and that any intermeddling by any one or
moro States, or by a combination of their cit-izens,
with the domestic institutions of the
others, on any pretext, whether political,
moral, or icligions, with the view to their
disturbance or subversion, is in violation of
the Constitution, insulting to the States so
interferred with, endangers their domestic
peace and tranquility—objects for which the
Constitution was formed—and, by necessary
consequence, serves to weaken and destroy
the Union itself.
2. fieoolved, That negro slavery, as it ex-ists
in fifteen States of this Union, composes
an important portion of their domestic insti-tutions,
inherited from their ancestors and
existing at the adoption of the Constitution,
by which it is recognized as constituting an
important element of tho apportionment of
powers among the States; and that no
change of opinion or feeling en the part of
the non-slaveholuing Slates of tho Union, in
relation to this institution, tan justify them
or their citizens in open and systematic at-tacks
thereon, with a view to its overthrow,
and that all attacks are in manifest, viola-tion
of the mutual and solemn pledge to pro-tect
and defend each other, given by the
States respectively on entering into tho con-stitutional
compact which formed the Union,
and are a manifest breach of faith and a vio-lation
of the most solemn obligations.
3. Resolved, That the union of these States
rests on tho equality of rights antl privileges
among its members, and that it is especially
the duty of the Senate, which represents the
States in their sovereign capacity, to resist all
attempts to discriminate, either in relation
to person or property, so as, in the Territo-ries—
which are the common possessions of
the United States—to give advantages to
the Baltimore Sun, says:
"A point was made in the discussion,
which is of great interest to the country—to
wit: that Mr. Pennington is in favor of the
fugitive slave law as it is. This was admit-ted
by the Republicans, and thus they have
been driven from one of their heresies."
The Baltimore Sun says :
There is neither honor or profit in and Presenting the unseemly spectacle to the citizens of one State which arenotequal-imA^

makes it piracy for an American citizen to

action in the matter is to get rid at once

The System of Deception.
. ■
The Democratic papers are dctoraijoed
that their readers shall not see the \\3.ioK
truth as to the lato contest for Speaker. *Th<-
Wilmington Journal follows tip its tw. uu
founded assertions which wo exposed on
Thursday, by tho following:
"On Tuesday, Mr. Smith withdrew, and the
Democrats resolved to support Mr. McC'ler-nand
of Illinois. One would havo UtoOaht,
that after the strenuous and united sflbrtS
made by tho Democrats to elect Mi Smith,
tho Southern Opposition would have concen-trated
upon the cand dato brought out b\-
the I VIII.M rats, but they did not."
"United efforts" indeed! The Jourmd
well knows that a united effort of the i vim -
crats would havo elected Mr. Smith.
Not a word is said of the fact, wbi .1 tLc
Journal knew when it published the above
that on this Tuesday's vote, nine Democrat it-members
did not vote for McClernan., lb*
Democratic candidate, for refusing tc. vote
for whom the Journal censures the Southern
Opposition, but has not a word of com; laint
against the nine To have complnined of
them would havo been to let its rr adorn
know the fact that there were Democrats
who so refused to vote for the candidate ;
and that would have been a stretch of can-dor
to which the Journal could not bring it-self.
Its readers might think, as all fair-minded
men must think, that the DenOcrats
had no right to expect the Southern < '^posi-tion
to vote lor an anti-l.ecompton Dei|oi'rat
who was so objectionable, that nine Southern
Democrats would not voto for him. ftYiih-out
tho votes of these nine—allofth£:i—it
was impossible to elect McClernand Tho
Democrats appear to have put him u| with
no expectation (and no desire, we inspsot,]
that he could bo elected, but simply t'>.ob-lige
tho Southern Opposition members to
vote against him, so that these Sout' era Op-position
members might be abused aid mis-represented
at home. There are a good
many indications to strengthen tin' belief,
that from the first the Democrats have been
far less anxious to defeut a Black Republican
for Speaker than to secure material-for a
triumph over the Southern Opposition. In
this instance, the Democracy put up aJiqaal.

as worse than Scward himself,^ know-ing
that he was odious to both parties in the
South, and that whilst party feeling might
induce most of the Democrats to\oteibr
bim, there was no reason why tho OMOBN
tion should. Further, from tho very begin-ningof
the session the Democrats have m-ide
a point of abusing the American branch ol
tho Opposition. Even in voting for Mr
Smith, they did so protesting th.-.t they
would not vote for him if he had ever be
longed to the American order; that they
voted for him because he was free from tl'iit

HISTORY OF CLOCK MAKING.—Mr. Camp,
President of the New Haven Clock Com-pany,
in a recent speech at a supper, said :
Clock making commenced ab«»ut 1815, l>y
Klias Terry, of.Plymouth, who made wooden
clocks, whittling out the wheels with a knife.
The running was regulated by a heavy bag
of sand, and was wound up by a ball at the
other end of the Cord. Terry used to make
two clocks, swing them across his horse,and
ride off in search of a market. Very soon
he introduced the use of "brass movements,'
using old kettles because brass was scarce.
When he undertook to make two hundred
clocks, people laughed at him, thc-y thinking
iblo to sell them. In 1*2:1
fice to sectional purposes, or to the detriment is thought from information obtained from
'ime to all praces"orinterest in ! of his whole country, we shall condemn and the sailing master, who had command ot ner
