e borne transparencies, on which were painted the following mottoes: "The Jerry rescuers played out;" "The rights of the South must be protected;" "Freedom of speech, but not of treason;" "Abolitionism no longer in Syracuse." At several points on the route of the procession, it halted and made the effigies of Mr. May and Miss Anthony to dance "Hall Columbia," in company to the music of the Union. Passing into Hanover square, the procession halted and an impromptu address was made by Moses E. Hart, who took occasion to denounce the abolitionists in strong terms, and expressed a hope that their race was run. The effigies were here set fire to and burned, amid groans and hisses. The procession again took up its line of march to the City Hall park, where after renewed cheers for the Union the crowd quietly dispersed, evidently well satisfied with their day's work. The abolitionists left here this evening for Anburn, the home of Wm. H. Seward, to hold a Convention there.

s of the rights of the South, and the absence of any movement among the principal Northern States to inspire a hope, we cannot resist the conclusion that the constitutional process of amendment, slow as it must be, is to be protracted, and that Mr. Seward's remark that some amendment to soothe the South may be made after the Southern mind is calm — perhaps in "two or three years"--really expresses the policy of those who follow his lead. But in that time what events may come, Mr. Seward cannot Mr. Seward cannot tell any more than he can control.--Let us look at probabilities. 1st. Congress is discussing schemes of settlement. The Commissioners to meet at Washington on the 4th will discuss schemes. Discussion involves necessarily delay. After determining on amendments, they have to be submitted to the States, (their Legislatures or Conventions, as they choose,) by a vote of two-thirds of Congress, counting all the States, or nearly the unanimous vote of those remaining, as nearly one-third wi

Seward says all will be right--Mr. Everett Thinks not. We have been furnished with the following extract of a letter dated "Washington, D. C., Jan. 29," from a highly respectable gentleman to a member of the Virginia Senate: "I spent a very pleasant afternoon, on yesterday, with Mr. Everett, at a friends's house, in Georgetown. He says that Seward assured him on Thursday last that all things would yet come right, but declined giving his reasons for so thinking; but that he (Mr. E.) have been furnished with the following extract of a letter dated "Washington, D. C., Jan. 29," from a highly respectable gentleman to a member of the Virginia Senate: "I spent a very pleasant afternoon, on yesterday, with Mr. Everett, at a friends's house, in Georgetown. He says that Seward assured him on Thursday last that all things would yet come right, but declined giving his reasons for so thinking; but that he (Mr. E.) has no hope of an adjustment, or even peaceable separation."

No compromise. The patriotic efforts of the venerable Crittenden have failed to melt the iron obduracy of Lincoln, Seward & Co. It is evident that, confident in their numbers, they are bent on Coercion. Our conciliatory attitude only excites their contempt. They mistake the calmness and caution of the Border States for fear, the greatest and most fatal mistake they have yet made in their chapter of blunders.
