WILLIAM J. BRON, Editor. INDIANAPOLIS, OCTOBER 29, 1850. The Fugitive Slave Law. If vre were to judge from tho great excitement that the Abolitionists, and their allies, of the north, are now creatin,"Fe would Iks led to suppose that the act of the last session of Conprcss, had introduced a new and unconstitutional principle into onr government for the exclusive benefit of the slaveholder but if we were to judge from tho tone of the southern press, Congress has been so far playin into the hands of the northern Abolitionists, as to justify even cceesstion or disunion. These antagonist positions are the more alarming, from the fact, that neither of them has the least shadow of foundation to rest upon from any act of the last session of Congress, and least of all, from the fugitive slava act, proving most incontestibly, that each faction is merely seeking pretexts for agitation, and that they are willing to seiza upon any and every act of the government or the friends of the Union, which they think can U forced j

into their service in the unholy war which they ftre : at the threat that the Constitution would ie voted down, wagins against the last and brightest hopes of freemen I T,,at the Delegates should take the responsibility of throuffhoat the world. The conservative actsof the last making a Constitution, without shielding themselves besessen, we had supposed, would have left no ground or hind the people. That it was a bad precedent to submit Complaint to any reasonable man, who is willin- to oparate propositions, merely to gratify the small faction and by thecoropromiscs and guarantees of the Consti- vho wc,e in favor of ncSr0 m8S. That other comnt! .. .Vk .,1 -of r ..,rj. binations of individuals would have the right to have

firmlv sustained bv the nrcat charter of our liberties. I The fugitive slave b w is said to be an exception to this position, and to jrive creater Powers to the slave- ,

holder in securing his fugitive, or runaway slave, than . bV tn5 pP'fi ad that in many portions of tho State he had under the Constitution. Let us see" how that is. j there was but one voice on the subject. "VVe maintain that it only secures to the owner of slaves j Mr- Dobsow offered an amendment providing, that precisely what the Constitution has guarantied to him,! tuos who vote for negro suffrage, shall be disfranchised, while it throws arouud the free colored man a protection ' ""'ess a majority of the people shall vote for such nethat was not given by the act of Congress of 1793, and ro suffrage. Mr. Doesoj.- said, this question, he tho decision of the Supreme Court of the United States thought, had once been settled, but having been again ia the case of Prigg vs. the Commonwealth of Peiin-jl- introduced, he had offered his amendment. He then vania. The Constitution of the United States, which acd if there was a solitary Delegate on the floor who we have supposed was obligatory as the paramount law j i favor of negro suffrage. He paused for a reply, of the land, provides that, "no person held to service or As there was not a single memlcr on the floor in favor labor in one State, under the laws thereof, escaping into of 1,e aste1 wnJ sl,oulJ tho lncstion be submitted? another, shall in consequence of any law or regulation After remarks at length, he withdrew his amendment, therein, be discharged from such service or labor, but -Mr. Beert then, in order to have a test vote on the hall be delivered up on claim of the party to whom such; matter contained in the resolution, moved to strike service or labor may be due." The decision of the Sn- ! it t from the resolving clause, and insert that the prcme Court in the eise referred to above, determined committee on tho elective franchise insert a provision in this ta be a self acting provision, authorizing the owner ' the Constitution, providing that negroes and mulattocs of a slave who had escaped from one State to another, ( shall be eligible to vote at the several elections in this whether a free State or slave State, to pursue the slave ' State. He would vote against the amendment himself; and take and carry him back to the State from which he but he wished members to show their hands, that it mip-ht had escaped, and where he owed services, without any , e seen whether there was indeed any necersity of rcfwarrant, certificate, or process whatever. The act of erring the matter to the people. Before the question Congress of 1793. affixed the penalty on those who pre- was takeu tho Convention adjourned until Monday

vented tho free exercise of this power with the purpose of procaring the escape of the slave. - Thus it is clear that before the passage of the late act of Congress, the rights of the owner of the slave, as declared in the Con- ! stitution, were defined and enforced quite as strongly in ' favor of the slave owner, as they aro by the additional aet of of Congress passed at the last session. That act recognizes the same rights, under the Constitution, of the slaveholder, that were previously in existence, but instead of authorizing the master to pursue and take his slave and carry Aim ottf of a Slate without process of any lind, as was the law of the land previously, expressly requires the owner of the slave to carry him before a legal tribunal, to make proof that such person so arrested is

a slave , or, in other words, owes service in the State from j The motion to reject was withdrawn ; when, on motion which he has escaped, and then to obtain a certificate of j of Mr. Ed.monstow, the petition was laid upon the tathe court or officer, before such fugitive can bo taken out . i,e. Mr. Bo a ten also presented a petition from tho

of the State. This aet, then, is most clearly a protection thrown around the free man, and imposes additional restraint upon the kidnapper, to those previously imposed. In a word, it only secures to the owner of the slave, his rights solemnly guarantied by the Constitution, while it effectually shields the free colored man, and places a barrier between the kidnapper and his victim , that he cannot overleap, leaving the State laws against . kidnapping in full force, and the habeas corpu$ act unim- j paired should there be a case of injustice attempted. With all due deference to the opinion of others, it seems ' to us, that the act should meet the approbation of all ( who are willing to stand by the guarantees and compro-, rnises of the federal Constitution, and who value, as we do, the prosperity of this glorious Union.

!OB elective franchise be instructed to enquire into the expcJiency of wparAtcW 8ULmittin the question of e-

gro suffrage to the people. A long discussion ensued, in which Messrs. Colfax, Cookerly, Miller ot Tulton, Owen, Edmonston, Dobson, Smith of Ripley, Barbour, Taylor, Foster, Kilgore, Robinson, B!ythc, Hawkins and Pepper of Crawford participated. It was contended by the advocates of the resolution, that although no one an the floor advocated nejrro suffrage, yet from five to ten thousand citizens of Indiana were in favor of such a policy, and as these persons had votes to give, for or against the adoption of the Constitution, when submitted to the people, the whole work of the Convention might be voted down, as ihece persons would vote against the Constitution, if this small !oon were denied tlicra. That other States had submitted this subject as a distinct question, in their amended Constitutions. That it would allay agitation, by putting a stop tothe complaints of those who wished this question decided at the polls. On the other hand it was said, that to submit this question, would increase agitation that the country would be filled with abolition lecturers, who would cause an unnecessary excitement amongst t"e pcP,e- That tho Convention should not be alarmed their peculiar notions submitted in like manner, howcv er ridiculous they might !c, or repulsive to the general sentiment. That this question had already been decided ,'mormng at nine o dock. Monday, October 23, 1350. The . Convention was opened by prayer by the Rev. Mr. Babb. Mr. Hitt presented a memorial from Isaac Blackford and others, the Executive committee of th Colonization Society of the State, in favor of a provision in the Constitution, in aid of the objects of the Society ; which was read and referred. Mr. Borden presented a petition from sundry colored persons in Allen county, asking to be placed on equality with white men. A motion was made to reject, when Mr. Pettit said he would oppose the motion, as he was in favor ol receiving the petitions of all human beinjrs that could either write their names or talk. members of a Baptist church in Stculcn county, for a clausein the Constitution, that every colored person who sets bis foot on Indiana soil shall be free. Mr. Smith of cott said, this petition was at war with the Constitution of the United States, and should not be entertained. Mr. Dobsox said, that petitions coming frora organized churches were improper. He thought tnev slIOuld petition as citizens, and not as churches, There were no peculiar rights given to any particular cuun:h ja our government. Mr. Borde thought there should be no objection urged against petitions coming from anv organization. Mr. Morrison of Marion was ; favor 0r reCeivinir all petitions. He thousht individuals and bodies of men, religious as well as others, had a right to petition. The best method, in his opinion, to dispose of these petitions, was to refer them nd let a rertort bo made at onoe. and the Convention would in a he may be at thirty-one or forty-one or fifty-one years of . ; haveeo.ua! privileges. Mr. Ckcmbacie favored the objects of the resolution, as originally introduced. That

the privilege to take this separate vote would allay excitement. - A contrary course would prejudice the friends of universal suffrage against the new Constitution, and might endanger its adoption. He entered into a defenee of tho abolitionists, as a party ; that they were, many of them, men of character and integrity, and who had an abiding love for the Union, and would never go for its destruction. These men had been called a faction here. Such was not always l"ne case. They were frequently courted by politicians of both parties. Mr. Edmon stox was not in favor of truckling to the friends of negro suffrago, for fear they would vote against the new Constitution. They were a faction with whom he had never had any connection. In Congress, last winter, where they held .the balance of power between tho two parties, they had prevented an organization for weeks, and in other respects had caused nothing but troublo in the country. He would resign his scat on tho floor of the Convention, before he would pander to such fanatics. Mr. Kiloori said, that he would have lcen in favor of letting the Constitution remain as it is; but agitators had come here and were in favor of preventing an emigration of negroes to the State. This had caused the present movement of a reference to the people. Mr. Kilcore then entered into a history of the rise and progress of the free-soil party ; of tho course of Mr. Van Buren, and of the positions of the Whig and Democratic parties in Indiana. II contended that thert was no one here who was in favor of placing th negro on an entire equality with the white man. There might le a property qualification or a qualification of education. He was not in favor of this, as a Constitutional provision, but that it might bo left an open question for after legislation. Inducements, in his opinion, should he held out for improvement. He asked, whether there wcro not hundreds of the negroes now in Indianapolis, who were better able to judge of our free institutions than many of the foreigners who had resided only two years amongst us. He was not opposed, however, to foreignrs voting after remaining a proper time in the country. With his Kentucky prejudices, he could not now vote for negro suffrage; but Le might change his mind, and he wished tho question to be kept open for after consideration. Mr. Kent now moved the previous question; which being sustained, under the rule of the Convention, was first taken on the amendment of Mr. May; which was not adopted. The next question was on the amendment of Mr. Berry, striking out the original resolution ar.d inserting an amendment providing " that ne. groes and mulattocs shall be eligible to vote at the several elections in this State;" which amendment was not adopted, ayes 1, (Mr. May ) nocs-122. The question now coming up, on the adoption of the resolution as originally offered by Mr. Colfax, for an enquiry into the expediency of a separate vote of the pccple, on the subject of negro suffrage, it was decided in the negative, ayes 60, noes G2. An imperative resolution heretofore laid over now came up, that a provision be inserted in the Constitution preventing negroes from giving evidence against white men; whioh resolution was adopted, ayes

73, noes not counted thus settling this question. Mr. Tagce, offered a resolution, as to the expediency of amending the Constitution, so that there shall, hereafter, be no charters granted for Banking purposes or internal improvements, unless a reasonable share of the proceeds be set apart for common school purposes; adopted. By Mr. Alexander, in relation to the organization of Probate Circmt Courts; adopted. By Mr. Smiley, in relaiion to contested elections of members of the Legislature, by providing for properly constituted courts to try the same, in time for members to take their seats; adopted. By Mr. Milroy, as to the expediency of adopting a volunteer military system; adopted. By Mr. Fepfer of C, that no separate propositions shall be submitted to the people in the amended Constitution; adopted. By Mr. Robinson, for a clause in the new Constitution, that no person shall be put upon trial for a criminal offence, punishable by confinement in the penitentiary, except on presentment or indictment ; and the grand jury shall not have cognizance of petit misdemeanors, not so punished ; Jics over. By Mr. Johnson, that the first session under the amended Constitution shall not be held until January 1353; lies over. Mr. Morrison of Marion offered the Pillowing resolution, which was read and ordered to be printed, to-wit: Rttolredf That the committee on currency and Banking inquire into the expediency of reporting a provision in tho new Constitution, embracing the following povisions: 1st. That the Legislature be prohibited from passing any law granting any special charter to anv person, persons, or corporation, for the purjose or with the power to issue bills of credit, notes for general circulation as a currency or for any banking pupose whatever. 2J. Corporations may bo formed under general laws. All laws governing or regulating corporations, or granting any rights or franchises, or taking any privileges which the people mav wish to reclaim, may be altered, amended or repealed, by the Legislature. The officers and stockholders of any bank, banking association or corporation, shall be individually liable for all debts, notes, issues and obligations to pay money, incurred bv said Bank, association or corporation, during the time "of the service of said officer, or while any such person was or may be a stockholder. 3d. The Legislature shall pass no law authorizing or sanctioning the nupcnsion of specie payments, by any person, association or corporation. 4tb. The Legislature shall restrict all persons, associations, or corporations, from issuing any bills or notes, to circulate as money, until such person, association or corporation shall have first civen ample security, to Ins deposited with a proper officer of State, cither in gold or silver, or in State or United States stocks or bonds: such stocks and bonds, to bear and pay full and legal rates of interest, and the amount of said stocks or bonds to be fully equal tö tho amount of bills or notes to be issued and circulated by said person, association or corporation. It shall not be lawful for anv person, association er corporation to issuo or put in circulation, as monev, anv bill, bills or notes, without the same have bsn regularly registered by the proper officer of State, and he, the said olfi'-er shall have numbered and countersigned all bills or notes thus to be issued or to lie put in circulation. 5th. In the event of tho insolvency or suspension of any bank or banking association, the bill holders thereof, shall be entitled to preference of payment, ovor all other creditors of such bank or association. 6th. Tho Legislature shall provide, by law, that no transfer of the property, assets or obligations of the debtors of such person, association or corporation shall bo transferred to preferred creditors or to any other person or persons, whereby the property, means and assets of said bank, shall Ik? diverted from the payment of the notes, bills, iesucs and obligations of said person, association or corporation. 7th. Tho Legislature shall provide for the creation and existence of such necessary supervisory power on the part of the State, as will insure a knowledge of the proceedings and condition of all banking institutions which may be organized under the laws of the State, and shall retain such 'control, through a State Directory, as may be essential to the safety of the people. 8th. The rights, privileges, powers, and franchises of the existing State Bank of Indiana, to be continued until the expiration of its charter, without extension or diminution.

After a desprcate strugle, in which the parties must have experienced heavy losses, tho Holsteins were forced to seek the cover of" new entrenchments, when barricades were thrown up in the town. The resistance which they met with here was so violent and determined' that, notwithstanding the most determined bravery, the Holsteins were compelled to retire. At midnight they took a new position and the conflict was to be renewed on the f allowing morning. The loss sustained by the U llsteins is yet unknown. Both sides behaved extremely well. Gen. Willison writes his d-sspatches in very desponding terms. The Holsteins, finding themselves in-want of, funds, have made most urgent appeals to the United Germanic Confederacy. The State of Germany itself continues to excite great alarm. Austria and Prussia seem to be upon the verge of an open rupture, and the position of Hesse Cassel and several other of the German States renders the relations of the German powers still more precarious. St. Locis, Oct. 23, 8 P. M. The extensive flouring and planing mill of Joseph Powell, at the corner of St. Charles and Eighth streets, caught fire about 3 o'clock this morning and was turned to the ground. The mill, with its machinery and valuable fixtures, was valued at $15,000 and insured for $5,000. The stock of wheat and flour destroyed is cstimamated at $2,500, on which there is insurance for $2,000. A quantity of lumler in the yard, owned by Mr. Powell and others, to the amount of $3,500, was entirely consumed, on which there was no insurance. The two adjoining two-story brick bouses were materially' damaged by the fire; and a portion of the east wall of Dr. Vaneourt's church was scorched but not to any serious extent. The fire originated while the mill was running, and while the engineer and fireman and one or two others were aliout. It is supposed to have caught in a room eontaing shavings from tho sparks emitted from the fireroom. , C7"The telegraphic despatches of the 23th inst. from the Eastern cities contain the following intelligence: The Woman's Rights convontion assembled at Worcester, Mass., on Wednesday morning. Ten States ware represented, viz: Maine, Nerv Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island. Connecticut, Massachusetts, NewYork, Naw Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. Frederick Douglass was in the meeting, and several dark-colord sisters were visible in the corners. Miss Davis, on taking the chair, read a very elaborate and philosophical address on tho wrongs and rights on women. She presented tho restraints under which women are bound down to slavery in a very touching manner. She asserted the equality of woman by nature, and insisted that she was entitled to equality in politics, legislation, and everything else. Woman wanted an equal chance for unfolding her great capacities, and she was bound to have it Society was in a Mite of barbar-' ism while it denied equality of privileges political, religious, and all other privileges. Letters were read, from which tho following is extracted: I Mr. Lucius Hynde, of Cincinnati, put in a letter main taining the equality or woman and her rights to all priviloges assumed by man the right to vote, hold offices, and go to battle if necessary leaving men to take their fair share of duties of the kitchen and nursery. Miss Elizabt h Wilson, of Ohio, put in a protest against the despotism of men, especially that despotism which makes them inferior bc!ngs, in point of intellect, when it was no such thir.g. She thought Jenny Lind in her public singmg for the benefit of these tyrants over her sex, was violating female delicacy. ! The United States marshal has warrants for the arrest of a large nnmlicr of fugitives in Boston. Much excite-mei-.t prevails among ths negro population. The courthouse has leen surrounded by them all the morning. They aris determined to resist, even to the shedding of blood. The negro named Latimer, who has resided here three or four years, has been pointed out by his master, . Blood will no doubt be shod if an open arrest is attempt ed. It is said that several arrests have been made, and that one or morf are lodged in jail. Judge Sprague was questioned this morning, but would not say whether any arrests had boen made or not. He declared that all examination should be made publicly in the court-house.
