ilgrirultural. Agricultural Benefit* of Snow.

It U with noma feeling* of regret and dis-

comfort, that farmer* as well m other men,,

regard tho approach of winter. That dur-1 ing aeeeral months, there must continue an

exhausting drain upon tho accumulation* of the year,without any replenishing stream*

to counterbalance ila efTeats is a fact not

pleasant to contemplate, especially if an in-

dividual happen* to be straitened iu supply, llenco, when a storm of snow occurs early in tbe season, as one did in this locality on

tho twenty fifth ult., the inquiry naturally ari*e* of what benefit is snow ! We see it*

evil e fleets in the wretched state in which

it places our roads; in the strained and

broken manner it leave* our atreets, espec-

ially if il comes, a* in this Instance, before

they havo been de'oliated by the wind and

frost; in the downcast and sorry look it

give* to all animated nature, man included. It is not our purpose to assert the value of

an untimely *now, any moro than that of

an untimely fiost. Any one of the phe-1 nomena of nature may be attended with

evil conscquence, howevur beneficial and

necessary in a general way. Too much

rain or too little; too backward a season or

toofoiwaid; and a thousand things gener- al ally beneficial, may be espccidly injuri- ous. Nature woika by general laws, and! in their impartial administration, doe* not

atop to inquire whether or not thi» man's

harvest is secure.

Snow, iu latitude* where the temperature is *utficieutly low for it to fall, is of vital

importance to vegetable life. Its peculiar- ly porous structure render* it an exceeding- ly bad conductor of caloric; aud hence.,

when covering anything ei her warm or'

cold, anJ greatly dillering iti temperature from the snow itself or from surrounding object*, it tequiie* a long period of limo for

the equilibrium to be restored. If the earth becomes eaily covered with i

snow, and before the ground is frrzsn, it l

will remain above .freezing point during the entire winter, even though the atmos-

pheric temperature should go dofrn many Mr*. H® m «!• j>i u-

taction, that if the aoil bo penetrated with

frost to the depth of several inche* before

the fall of *;.ow come* on, the calorie of the

subsoil will remove the frost, notwithstand-

ing the atmosphere has not at any time

risen much above tho freezing point. We

were, when a boy, much 'puzzled at this

phenomenon. The gtound had been froz- en like a s'.one before the snow fell upon it, the weather continuing many week* below

freezing point; and yet afterwards on re-

moving the snow, the ground was thawed out, and easily lifted with a shovel. Of

course a boy's reason was given for this circumstance, viz. .—that th<* snow was

warm and thawed out the ground, instead

of the trus one, that its non-corwluclin^ properties had intercepted the ladiation of

tho heat from the lower strata of (he soil, and thisx acting upon the upper statum,

had removed the frost. Alpine plant* that outlive the severest

winters of mountain districts because pro- tected by snow, have perished in the com-

paratively warm climate of England for want of such protection. We had • good illustration of the genial influences of snow

in our own country last winter. Tho ther- .motneter went down to a point unprecedent- ed in our history, twins no less than twenty two degrees below zero. That was a point of depression indicated for the first time in

• record ol sixty-seven years, and for how long a period previously, it was impossible lo tell. Of course the peach crop was ut-

terly ruined, and orchards which were wont

to yield hundred* of bushels of splendid fruit, produced this year nothing but leave*. At our horticultural show, however, (here

were exhibited several magniticent speci- mens of pcache*, which, upon inquiry, were found in every instance to hare been

produced upon limbe that had by a fortu-

nate accident been bent down and covered with a snow-drift. The temperature in their position did not probably fall to zero, and if they could have lakl upon the ground would barely have reached freezing point. The earth at this period was mantled with a heavy (all, and we tremble at the possi- ble consequences which might bare en-

sued in case the ground had been exposed and denuded. Aa it was, the froat did not

penetrate to an unusual depth, and the wheat fields and ineadowa came out in the

spring fresh and green from their long win-

ter slumbers. Snow has been called the poor imn'i

manare; but we are not aware that analy. •is shows it lo po»se«s any fructifying ele- ments not contained in lain water. The

gradual manoer of ita melting away enable* the soil to absorb a greater portion, and thus become thoroughly saturated at the

season when such a result is desirable —

The absorption of caloric, which becomes latent in melting snow, prevents a sudden transition from the chill of winter to the

warmth of spring. If it were not for this, vegetation would start too early, and all the frails and tender plants would be nipped by vernal frosts. As the seasons a re now

constituted, the sun must at least cross the

equator, and tha length of days exceed

that of the nights, before the soow

melts from the hillside, and disappears in

tbe vale. It has then performed ite mis

lien, a gaulle and a merciful one wbaiertr

may have been iu chill and forbidding as-

pect in the e»xI f autumn.

A locality thai experience* abundant fall* of snow, which cover the £rouml uniformly through the winter, will admit of the culti- vation of many thing* that cannot be srowu in other place* with no lower temperature, but destitute of »uow ; and many countries would be, without it* protecting influence, mere regions of wasto and detoUtion.— RurM Stic Yorktr.

Watu in Baas Yakds. Such is the

solvent power of w^ter, that if admitted in large quantities into barn-yards, it will

dissolve into tho earth, or iota streams and

ponds, a large share of fertilizing salts of manure. Tbe manure of stalls should, if

possible, be housed. It ahould be kept moist |with the urine of acimala, and suf- ficient litter shcald be used to absorb the whole of this, unless it be preserved in a

tank to be used as liquid manure, the policy of which is perhaps doubtful in this coun-

try, where Ubir is high, though it may be well in Europe, where labor is plenty. The true proceeding for barn-yard m.inure is to

keep it as fur as possible moiit, but not suf- fer it to be drenched. If dry and hot, it

gives its nutritious gues to the winds ; if drenched, it looses its most fertilizing salts; when neither scorched nor drenched, it is

decomposed more gradually, and it retains in itself a larger portion of its enriching properties.—Amherst Farmtr.

Br Mm. Kikkland

Doctor R Ht alone in his study, when a lady wa« announced.

11 Mr*. Waldorf. sir,'' ami the doctor lai«J down hi* pen, anil received hi* vi«itor very

cordially. She ww the wife ol a rich Ger- man merchant, and a distant cou*in cf hi*

own; a handsome worn hi, of about the and thirty, with •ollicient repwe of man-

ner, but I-hi spirited au eye to pas* lor a

moro fashionable machine. " I have come to you, doctor, instead of'

•ending tor you," began the lady, " be-

C4U-* I do not \*Uh Mr. Waldoif to know

kervnnce of your direction* to the very let— t«r, that I idmuld hate no pcaco."

The doctor smiled, as if ho thought Mr. Waldorf would not bo *o far wrong as his

lady might suppose. " Hut what is it, my dear niad.^n 1" he

said, taking Mr*. Waldford'* hanf an (riv- ing a look of professional scru.\Vj* to her faco. " You look well, though th.ro is u

slight Aaccidity about the eye*, a not quite so ruby a nether lip a> o:-c might wish to

health i* miserable—at least I sometimes think so; I have pains in the right side—

and auch fluttering* at my heart—and such latitude—and such headaches—and sleep so miserably—"

" Are your pains very severe ? Arc they of a heavy, dull kind, or sharp and darting ?

And how often do you experience them!" '* They ate not very constant—no, not

constant, certainly, nor very severe—but, doctor, they fill mo with apprehension* of future *• vil. It U not prevent suffering of

which I complain, so much as a fear ol

worse to come. 1 dread lest disease should make such progress, unnoticed, that it will b« vain to attempt a cure." And Mrs. Waldorf* eyes tilled with tears at the very thought of her trouble*.

'• You are very wiso to take it in time," said doctor R But tell mo moro of

these aymptoms. At what timo of the day do you generally feel moat indisposed?'

Oh! I can scarcely any. When 1 wake

in the morning, I am always very miserable.

My hoad is full of dull pain, especially about the eyes. My lips are parched : I tind it a great exertion to dress myself, and never have the slightest appetite for break> fast."

1 Ah, indeed !' mused the doctor, • you breakiast as soon a* you arise, I presume. At what hour do yoa retire t *

4 We make it a rule to be in bed by twelve, unless we happen to bo engaged out, which is but seldom. Waldrof detects

part tot and late hours Wo spend our even-

ings with musioor books, very quietly.' 4 At what hour do you sup ?'

\\\ have nothing like a regular supper, but {of mere sociability's sake, we havo a

tray brought up about ton. I take nothing beyond a bit of chicken or a lew oysters, or

a slice of cake, and sometimes only a crack- er and a gla«« of wine. You look as if you thought even this were better omitted ; but I should scarcely know how to cut oil one

of my husband's few social plea»ures. He

would not touch anything if I did not par- take with him. He thinks as ill of suppers as you do."

u I beg your pardon—I interrupted your detsil of symptoms to ask these questions as to the evening. You say you have do

appetite for breakfast—how long do these fooling* of languor and exhaustation con-

tinue to trouble you V' 44 Oh! I generally feel better after • cup

of codee ; and after practicing at tho harp or the pianoloite for an hour or two, or

sometimes three, when I have new music. 1 generally drive out, and perhaps shop a

little, or at any rate take a turn into the

country for the air, and usually returu

somewhat refreshed." 41 Do you take airings alooo '" '• Yes — preforce, almost. There are

none of my intimate friends who can go with

me. They drive out regularly, and take

children with them, or they have other ob-

jects ; one cannot ask a mere acquaintance, so l go alone, which i* not very exhilarat- ing."

'• Your own children are not at home 1" '• No—if Ihey were, I should need no

other company for the carriage. The so-

ciety of young people U pleasant to me,

bul Adelaide is at Madame 'a, and Ear-

neat is with a German clergyman, a friend of hia father'a. I fancy my tides would be

of much greater service to me, if I had a

pleaaant companion or two." M Undoubtedly—and I know a lady and

her daugter to whom a regular morning airing with auch society as that of Mia.

Waldorf, would be the very breath of

life ! what a pity that etiquette come in the

way of ao many good things But go on, I

beg." " Etiquette! say not another word, doc-

tor—who and where are these frio'ids or

patients of yours I I should bo happy if I

could offer any service. I will call with

you on them this day, if you like, and in-

vite I horn to ride with me daily." (a Thank you a thousand timet, my dear

madam," said Dr. R " It is what I could not venture to ask. Yet 1 am not

afiaid you will not find my fiiends at least

tolerably agreeable—but will you not pro- ceed with tho account you were giving me

of your daily habits—you dine at four, I be- lieve !"

" That is our hour, but Mr. Waldorf is

often detained until live, an,I I never dine

without him. For my ewn part, I should not caro if dinner wero stricken from the

day. I Innch about one, nn>l with tolerable

appetite, and I never wish to eat apain un-

lill supper time. We take tea, however, at seven, and—"

" Green tea, I presume—do you take it

strong !" " Oh ! not vciy ; it I take it too strong 1

do not aleep at all." " You sleep bul indifferently, you tell

mo :

" Yci gonerally, and wake many times in the night umciines in the honor*, bo

that I am full of undelinable foaia, and dare not opeu my vyes, lest the d'jects in the room should assume territic shapes. The

rery shades cast by the night-lamp, have

power at such limes to appal me.

The dodoi's professional inquiries ex-

tended to a still greater length, but lie had

guessed Mrs Waldoit's complaint belote he amved at this point in the lift. He had- found solitude, inactivity, la o hours, sup

pers, coifae, green lea, music and books,— with not ono counterbalancing item of that labor—effort—ftuciilice—which has been attized as the unchanging price of health

andspiiits. Mrs. Waldorf was one of the

hundreds if not thousands of ladies in our

land, who walk through the world without ever discoveiitig the secrct of life. She

had abundant wealth, and a most indulgent husband, with all that this world can offer in point ofeoiuiort, and she imagined that1 health alone wuj wanting to complete har happincM. Passive happiness! what a

dream! Doctor R was at the head of hi* pro-

fession, and he had tome medicines at his

command, which aro not known at the hos- pitals. He thought he could cure Mrs. Waldorf, but he hinted that ho feared he

should find her but a poor patient. " You do not wish Mr. Waldorf to know

you are uuder my care, lest ho should ob-, ject to your neglecting my remedies—"

" Oh, indeed, doctor, I shall be very faithful! Try me! Try me! You can-

not prescribe anything too difficult. Shall I trav«l to the Pyramid s barefoot, and live on bread and water all tho way f 1 urn on-

ly atraid Waldorf should insist upon my taking odious drugs, and—you kuow cau-

tious meeting 0110 at every turn are so tire-

tom«!" " Then you are ready to tako any reme-

dy which is not at all disagreeable, and 1

which may be used or omitied at (litcrt- lion—"

" No, no—indeed, you misluko rue. I

only beg that it may not be too unpleasant.1 I will do just us you say."

Mrs. Waldorf now hod a lino color, and her eyes sparkled us of old. Sho had every confidence in tho »kill of Dr. II , and the effort of recalling and recounting her symptoms had given an impetus to her thoughts, and a quicked ^current to her blood.

The doctor apologized. He had an np- poiutmeut and his hour had come.

" But before I leavo you thus unceremo-

niously he said, " it strikes me that there is a root in my garden which might be ol essential scrvice to yuu, to begin with at

least. You know I have a |littlo spot in which 1 cultivate a few rare botanical npec- iments. Might ( venture to ask you to March fur thw root I ipvuk of? It is in that little square compartment in the corner, which appears nearly vacant."

" Ob, oertainly—but had I not better call John, as your own man is going away with you i

"John! Blow my soul, raaJam, there is not a John in the world that I would trust in my sanctum ! No hand but mine, and that ol a gardener whom I employ occasion- ally, under my own direction, ever intrudes among my pets. Let meeutroat you, since I have not another rnomeut to spare, to take this little trowel, and search with your own

tuuuls until you discover an oblong, white

root, like this"—opening a book of botani- cal plants, and exhibiting something that looked very much like a Jeru*alem (arti- choke—"Take that and hare it washed and grated into a gill of Port, of which try ten

drops iu a little water, threo times a day. I will see you very soon—but now I must

run away." And Dr. II—— departed, leaving Mrs. Waldoif iu a musing mood.

She cast a look at the garden which lay just beneath the wiudow, full of flowers ; then at the trowel—a strange implement in her band. She .thought Dr. K very odd, certainly, bat she resolved to follow his directions implicitly. She went down

staira, and was soon digging \ery icaloosly. Her glove was split by the first eflort of

coarse ; for • fashionably fitted glove ad-

mils not the free exercise of the muscles—

but all was of no avail. Every oornor of

the little square wa» disturbed, but no tal-

isman appeared. Weary at length of Irr

now employment, Mra. Waldorf gavo upjn despair, and sat in a liltlo aibor which oli<k-

ed its shado invitingly near her. Here »te sank into a pleasant revetie, as ono cfu scarcely help doing in a garden full of

sweet llowers, snd so pleasant was the sen*

of repose after the labor, that she thought not of the lapse of time, until sho was sing- led by the voice of Dr. , returned fiya his visit, and exceedingly surprised to fiul her still trowel in hand.

" Why, mj dear madam," he exclaimrd "you are forgetting your wish that Mr.

Waldorf should not discover your visit to

ma! If he walks much in town, he has had amplo opportunity to discover his car*

riage at my door these two hours. mutt learn ;o carry on claudesiinu affair/ better than this! ilavo you the medi- cine 1"

Mrs. Waldorf laughed, and ivlated her ill success, which the doctor very much re-

gretted, although he did not offer to assist iu her search.

41 You aro feeling tolerably well just now, I think," he said ; "your color is belter than when you came in tho morning."

"Oh, yes! much belter, just now ! Bui how charming your garden i*. I do not

wonder that you make n pet of it. We, too, have a fowsquaro inches of gurden, but it gives mo but liltlo pleasuro, bccauso I have nover done anything to it myself. 1 think I shall get a trowel of my own."

" You delight me ! You hare only to

cultivate and bring to perfection a single bed of carnation*, lo become as great an

enthusiast as myself. But it mud bo done

by your own hands." " Yes, certainly: but now I must be

gene. To-moirow I will hold iny>clf in readiness to call on jour friends, at any hour you may appoint."

41 What say you at eleven? Would that be too barbarous ! The air is woith a good deal more at cloven than al one."

" At seven, if you like ! Do not imagine me so very n slave to absurd fashions ! 1 i

am determined you shall own me u reason-

able woman yet." Mrs Wuldorf cnllid from tho carriage

window—u You'll not forget to send the

medicine doctor?" " Certainly not! You shall havo it at;

seven this evening, and I tru«t you will take it with exact regularity."

•• Do not lear me," she raid, and the doc- tor made his bow of adieu.

The tncdicine caino at seven, with a sedi- ment that looked not a littlo like grated po- tato, and without the slightest tli»agrceable taste. Accompanying directions required the disuse lor tho picsont, of cuiiee and green tea; and, recommended to Mrs. Waldorf a daily walk, and a very early bed- hour.

Tho lady took her ten drops at nine, and felt so much belter that she could not help telling her husband all about her visit to. rv_ 11 A-'•« A%

Tho next morning proved cloudy, and I Mr*. Waldorf fell rather lunguid, but nficr1 taking her dose, found un improved appe- tite for breakfast. She rat down to her \ music, but looked frequently at the cloud*, and at her watch, thinking of her appoint- ment. Whon the hour arrived, the envious skieti poured down such showers as will

damp any person's ardor. The drivo must

be given up fur that day, and it parsed at

usual, with only the interlude of tlio magic drops.

The next dny was as bad, and tho day after not a great deal better. Mrs. Waldorf's pains and palpitations almost discouraged her. She was quite sure she had the liver complaint. Hut on the fourth morning the sun rose gloriously, and tho face of nature, clean washed shone with renewed beauty. At eleven tho catriago and lady were at Dr. R 's door.

" Hare you courago to sco an invalid—a sad sufferer?" said the doctor.

" Oh, certainly; I am an invalid myself you know."

" Ah, my dear lady, my invalid wears a

different aspect! Yet I hope sho is genii;, to recover, and I shall trust to your human-! ity if the scene proves n sad one. Sickness ( of tho mind was, I think, tho otigin of the evil, but it has almost overpowered the frail |

body. This young laJy and her mother havo been giving lessons in music and in

Italian, and havo had but slender success

in the whiil of competition. As nearly as

I can discover, they come lo this country hoping to find a reverse of fortune easier to bear among strangers ; and their courao

was determined hitherward in consequence of eailier family troubles, which drovo a

•on of Madame Yumigliu to America. He was a liberal, and both displeased his father nnd put himself in danger from government by aomo unsuccessful attempt at home.—> The lather is since dead, and the old lady and daughter, left in poverty and loneli- ness, determined on following the young man to the now world. Rut hero wo are."

And they stopped before a amall house in a back street. Mrs. Waldorf was shown into a very humble parlor, while the doctor went to prepare his patient, lie returned

presently, with Madame Vamiglia, a well bred woman past middle age. She express- ed her grateful sense of Mia, Waldorf's kindness, but their communication was

rather pantomimical, for the lady found her

song-Italian of little service, and the sig- nora had not much conversational English. However, with some French, and occasion*

at aid from Dr. R their acquaintance was somewhat ripened before they went to

the bedside of the sutTerer. Mrs. Waldorf turned pale, and felt ready to faint, at the

sight which presented itself. There was a low, narrow couch in the

centre of the room, scarce larger than an

iufant'a crib, and on it lay what seemed a

mere remenaut of mortality. Large dark

eyes, full of a sort of preternatural light, alone apoke o! life and motion. The fig-

ure had been always extremely small, and waa now wanted till it scarce lifted (he light covering of the mattress. Madame Yarn- iglia went forward and spoke in a low tone to her daughter, and Mrs. Waldorf was clad to sink into the chair set for her by Doctor R The ghaitly appearance of the poor girl nearly ovcrcamo her.

The mother introduced her guest to her daughter, who coolJ only look an acknowl- edgement; and then asked the doctor if he thought Ippolita could bear tho motion of a

carriage. " She seems weaker to-day/' he replied ;

" very weak, indeed. Yet, if Mrs. Waldorf will allow tho mattress to be put in, I think we may venture."

Madime Yamiglia seemed full of anxiety lest the experiment should prove tco much for tho flickering remnant of life; hot r,ft«r much reparation, John was called and the poor suflerer transferred, mattraai and all, (o the back seat. Mrs. Waldorf and her mother took the front seats and in this way they drove slowly out towards tho country.

At first, the poor little aignorina seemed exhausted almost unto death, and her mother watched her with the most agoniz- ed solicitude ; but after a while sho became accustomed to the gentle motion, and seem-

ed revivod by tho fresh air. A» thu road wound round through a green lano shaded with gieen troes, Ippolita looked about her with admiration, and made a aign of pleas- ure with her wasted hand. Tears started to hor mother's eyes, and she luoked to

Mrs. Waldorf for sympathy and not in vain. At length the invalid gnvo sign, nnd they

tlrncil about. \Vhonthey icachcd the lodg- ing-bouse, Ippolita wiu in a quiet ►leep, and

they cariied her back to her own room al- most umttsturbeii.

"To-morrow at eleven!" whispered Mrs. Waldorf, at purling. Madame Vam- iglia prosed licr hand, but could not jpenk

We need not describe the morning rides which sucr eedcd this auspicious commence

ment. We need not traeo, step by step, t!ie slow amendment of tho young lialiam no- attempt to express, by words 'hfl grat» ilude of mother and- daughter. 1'hnj felt words lo bo totally inadequate. Wu may Biontion, however, the rapid improvement of Mrs. Wablrof's health and spirits, which must of courso be ascribed to that excellent ntedicine of Dr. it's. This enabled that

Udy to study Italian more strenuously, both at home and by (amiliar Io-hoiis fiom Mad- ame Ynmiglia and her daughter, durinu their Ion if excursions. This pursuit was

never found to tocieaso tin palpitati <ns, and seemed almost a specific against headache.

Before Ippolita had so far recovered ns to

be independent of tho daily Hiring, Mrs. Waldrof picked up a now object of interest. We ray pickcd up, for it was n road side acquaintance, and as Mrs. Waldorf hus since observed, one which she never would have made if »ho had been reading dming her drive, as was her custom formerly —

She had, every morning for sometime, ob- served a poor woman drawing a basket-wag- on of curious construction, in which lay a

child much larger than is usually found in such vehicles. Tho child was pretty, mid tastefully, though plainly dressed ; but the whole establishment bespoke anything but abundaut means, do that Mrs. Waldorf was

puzzled to make out tliu character of the

group. Tho woman had not tho air of the servant, and yet tht child did not look as il it could be her child. In short, niter see-

ing the same thiug n dozen times, Mrs. Waldorf's curiosity was a good deal excit- ed.

She did not, however, venture to make

any inquires, until it so chanced that, in the very green lane wo havo spoken of—the favorite resort of the grateful Ippolita—they found tho poor woman, with tho child taint-

ing in her arms. Grief and anxiety were

painted on her honest face, and she was so

absorbed in her efforts for tho recovery of the child, that she scarcely answered Mrs. Waldorf's sympathising inquires.

Oh, don't troublo yourself, ma'am ! It is nothing now ! She's this way very of-

ten. It's tho whoopin'-cough, ma'am; and I am afoard it'll be the death of her, poor lamb, in spite of all we can do!' And she

tossed the child in the air, and fanned its faco till the breath returned.

Is it your own .'' asked Mrs. Wald- orf.

• No, indeed, ma'am ! Mine are other

gue»s lookin' children, thank God ! This dear babe's mother i*u delicate young lady that lives a neighbor to me, as has n tick husband that she can't leave. I'm a wash-

erwoman, ma'am, if you please, and I have to go quito away down town every day, al-

most, and so I take this poor thing in my basket—it's largo enough, you see—aim «o

aires hur a turn in ihu open air, 'cause the doctor 8.i) b it's the open air, if anything, that'll do her good.'

You ate rery good,' said Mrs. Waldorl, who had listened in a kind of icverie, her thoughts reverting to her lonely diivcs.

Oh, no, ma'am ! it's far Irom good 1 am! The Lord knows that! Rut a little bit of neighborly kindness liko that, is what the poor of:en does for one another, and dont think anything of it. neither! To be

sure, this babe's mother isn't the likes ol

me, ma'am, but she is far worse off than she has been. Her husbitnd is what they call an accountant—a kind of clerk, like ;

and ho cin't get no employ, and I think it's breaking hi* heart pretty last.'

Here Mrs. Waldorf fairly burst into tears * Tell me where you lire,' she said, and

*ay nothing to this lady you speak of, but come to me to«morrow, will you f * and she

pot a card into the poor woman's hand. 'Surely I will, ma'am,' said the washer*

woman,• and it'a a kind heart you hare !' Mrs. Waldorf rode home with her heart

and head full. 11 low could I ever content

myself with giving mon y,' she said to her-

self, when there are so much to be dont!'

[•••••••• • How do yon find yourself, this morning,

my dear madam ? * said Dr. R——, ihort- ly after this.

Oh, quite well, thank you!' * What! no more lassifudo! no more bead*

ache?' * Nothing of the sort I assure you. I

never foil better.' When did your aymploms abate 1'

GERMAN PRISONERS.

Amid the mn«t shultliyfootel nnd do- mestically-benign of this felino race, wore

the Wi low Zwran/igor nnd Mis. Gottfried ! of Germany. They were among the mo»:

successful, though not the ruo»t extinguish- | ml, in this ait of poisoning. They went on [

{their way slaying all around them, fur years1 upon yeais uud yet were too good and agree-

| able to be suspeotod, though death was but anotlier n unu for their shadow*. Funerals followed those fatal sisters as ccrtainly n>

thunder follows lightning ; and undertakers were the only men who flourished in their path. >.'ho Widow Z ivnn/iger was an ad- mirable cook and nurse. Her soups nnd coIIco had 11 peculiar strength ; lier watch- ful cato by the sick bed was in nil hearts ;

she kissed tho child she meant to kill, and

pillowed tho aching heid with such sooth-

ing address that it never ached again. Mrs. Gottfried was so atractive a person that her ministration was sought by peoplo of much higher rank than her own; she was so

warm a friend, that sho was a friend unto

death, and one attached soul ufler another breathed their last in her arms, llusbund after husband departed und still her hand was sought, and still her hand was sought, and still it practiced its cunning. At length in her four and-fiftieth year, she was detect- ed arrested. In prison, slto walked amid the apparitions of all her victims, wept tears

of tenderness over thuir memory, and fin- ished by desiring that her life might bo

written; so that, having lo»t everything else, she might onjoy her fame. All woman of thi* class have an extraordinary degreo of

vanity, and what is more, they have had a

peifeet pis*ion for their art. Tho March- ioness de Biinvilliers was an enthusiastic in the composition of tho rarest poisons, of which hor accomplice, Saiuto-Croiz, was

so eminent a compounder. The adraira*! lion of her beauty, tho distinction of her

rank, afforded hor but a feeblo satisfaction in comparison with that of watching the

operation of sonm subtly lethal essence.—

She certainly was not the mere marpnion- ess, but the princess of poisoners ; and yet it remained for Madame Ursinus to give additional touches of perfection to this pe- 1

culiar character. She was at once n lady of fashion, a piotest, a writer of useful' tracts, a postess, and a poisoner. Through 1

all the dangers of these various careers tho j lived to a coo I o' 1 a »o of seventy-six, and 1

died— lameraled. Hrinvilliera, Zwanzi^er and Gol fried, con fussed that they wero c>n-

(jucrcd by thoir crimes; but M idame Urain 1

CELEBRATION. AT PLYMOUTH. or THE

Landing of the Pilgrims.

The 235th anniversary of tha landing of the Pilgrim Fathers wat celebrated at Ply- mouth, on Friday, the 21st instant, under

the auspices of toe Pilgrim Society. The weather wai delightful, though rather cold, and the day was, as usual, observed as a

holiday by all claases of the citizens. Hun-

dred* of people flocked into town from the

adjoining country, and delegations were also present from Boston and other cities.

Hon.' William H. Seward, of New York, delivered the oration. It was aa able an

eloquent production, occupying nearly three hours in its delivery. The Boston Atlas of

Saturday contained a full report of it. We

copy from this report a lew extracts touch-

ing the character of the Puritans and their

principles. Aftsr alluding to the fact that the church of England was the result of a

compromise " which was claimed stood

midway between the uncompromising church of Rome, and equally uncomprom- ising latitudinarian Protestant ism, and that absolute and active conformity with its re-

quirements was demanded, and being in-

corporated into the constitution wi'h such

auxiliary political powers, it must neceesa*

rily augment the influence of tht throne, and be subversive equally of the civil and

religious liberties of the people. A conservative power, a new conserva-

tive power, was necessary to prevent that fatal conaummation. That power appeared in the form of a body of ohacure religious sectaries, men of luonaalical devoulness, jet retaining the habita of domestic ami social life; simple, but not unlearned : un-

ambitious; neither rich enough to forget their God, nor yet poor enough to debase their aouls; content with mechanical and agricultural occupations in villages and rural districts, yet conscious of the liberty with which Christ hail made them free, and therefore bold enough to confront ecclesias- tical and even royal authority in the capital. Serious, as became their religious profes- sion, they grew under persecution to be grave, formal, and austere. Chosen em- issaries of God, as they believed, they wil- lingly became outcasts among men. Di- vinely constituted depositaries ot pure and abounding troth, as tliey thought, they an- nounced, as their own rule of conduct, that no article of faith, no exercise of ecclesias- tical authority, 110 rule of discipline, and not eveu a shred of ceremonial or sacra-

ment, should be accented, unless sanction- ed by direct warrant from the Scriptures, as interpreted by themselves, in the tree ex- ercise of their own conscience*, illumina- ted by the Holy Spirit. God, although a benevolent Father, was yet, as they believ- ed, jealous towards disobedience of His revealed will, and would punish conscious neglect of its commandments. These were the l'uritans. They camo into ihe world to save it from despotism; and the world comprehended them not. They re- fused to actjuieico in the compromise, be- cause it involved a surrender of natuial rights, and a violation of principles of duty toward God. Nevertheless, they were true

Christians, and therefore they declined to set up iheir own convictions as a standard for others who subscribeJ to the Christian 4

faith, and freely allowed lo all their fellow subjects the same broad re'igious liberty which thoy claimed for themselves. They persisted in non-conformity. The more

hardly pressed, the more firmly they per- sisted. Tho moio firm their persistence, the moie severe and unrelenting was the

persecution they endured. More than u

hundred years virtually outlawed as citizens and subjects, and outcasts fiorn the estab- lished church, the Puritans bore unflinch- ingly their unwavering testimony against' the compromise, before magistrates and councils, in tho pillory, under stripe*, in

marches, in c&mps^ ill prison, in flight, in exilo, amon^ licentious soldiery and disso-i Inte companions in neighboring lands ; on | the broad and then unovplored ocean, when j the mariners lost their reckoning, and the ship'* supplies becaiuo scanty and her seam* opened to the waves; on unknown coasts, homeless, houseless, and famishing; in the leailess forest, suirounded by ice and •now, fearful of sarase beasts and ccufront- ingsavaso men. The compromise policy failed. Civil and religious liberty was not overborne ; it ruse erect; it triumphed ; it! is still gaining now and wider and more en

during triumphs; and tyrants have road anew the lesson, so often wasted upon ihctn before, that where mankind stand upon. their convictions of moral right and duly, t

in'disobedience to civil authority, there is no middle course of dealing wi>h them, between the persecution that exterminates, and the toleration that satisfies. Tho Puri- tans were not exterminated, they were not | satisfied.

The Puritans thus persisted and prevail-; ed becau«e they had adopted one true, sin- gular, and sublime principle of civil can-

duct, namely: that the subvert in every State has a natural right to religious liberty of eonscience. They knew too well the ( weakness of human cuarantie* of civil lib- erty, and the frailty of civil barriers against tyranny. They therefoie did not alfeot to derive the right of toleration from the coin mon law, or the statutes of the realm, or

magna oharta, or even from that imaginaiy contest between the sovereign and the sub- ject, which some publicists had about that time invented as a basis for civil rights.— They resorted directly to a law broader, older, and more stable, than all these—a law universal in its application and in it* obligation, established by the Creator and Judge of all men, and therefore paramount to all human constitutions. Algernon Syd- ney, Locke, and Bacon, and even Hooker, chosen and ablest champion of the Church of Kngland, demonstrated the ezistenco of this law, deriving tho evidences of it. and of lis universal nature and application, from natural and revealed religion, in the high debates of the seventeenth century. Black- stone, Vattel, and Montesquieu nave built upon it their respective systems of munici- pal law, public law, and government; and our own Congress of 177G sunk into the same enduriny foundation th« corner-stone uf this vast and toweling structure of Amer- ican freedom. The Puritars could there lore iay no cuirn 10 in.? ui-covery 01 iiiw

Kre»t principle*, or lo tho promulgation of it. But the distinguished glory of having <

fir*! reduced ii truin speculat:on lo actual and effective application, us a conventional rule of political conduct, i» all their own.

Tho trr«*at principle \vj.« not only a dis- turbing, but it waa abo an offensive and an-

noying one. It was an appeal from the highest sovereign power in ihe Stale, to a

sovereign power •till higher, and therefore vraa thought additions. Il of cuurse en- countered then the same ingenious •ophia- try which, although olten overthrown, has not even yet been silenced. It was argued, that if individual conscience mar rightly relate to acquiesce in the results of the

general conviction collected by the Slate and established as law, it may also right- fully resist the law by force, which would

product disorder and lead to anarchy. It was argued, also, that inasmuch as civil government is of divine appointment, it must be competent to aot as an arbiter be- tween conflicting consciences, and that im

plieit obedience to ila decrees, as such ar-

biter, is therefore • religious duty. As

might well have been foreseen, there arose, on Ihe side of Ihe Puritans, contestant*

worthy of ihe majeatic principle they de-

fended, contestants whose voices, then silenced by persecution or drowned by pub- lic clamor, have reached this more congen- ial age, and are now giving form and con-

densation lo the whole science ol political ethics. Not again recalling the names of Look* and Sydney, there was Kdwaria. urofoandest metaphysician of all agee, and

Milioa, always discontented and distrusted among men, bu» familiar with angels, and learned in the counsels of Heaven. It wm

their sufficient reply, that unenlightened anil onsanctified consciences will never

disturb despotism with their remonstrances, and that consciences illuminated and puri- tieil cannot be pem»rted to error; that God haa delegated to no human tribunal author- 1

ity to interfere between Himself and the monitor which Ue l>&* implanted in the bosom of every moral being, and which is

responsible to it* Author alone; and that the boundaries of human authority are the boundaries ot eternal justioe, ascertained by the teachings of that monitor which, where it is free and fully awakened, muat

always be the same. They answered far-

ther, and with decisive energy, that tradit ions and compacts subversive ef freedom, were altogether void, because the masses of men living at one time in a State, mu»t al- ways have supreme control over their own

conduct, in all that concerns their duty to

God and their own happiness. • • • • It was especially fe-

licitous that the lives of the puritans vindi- cated their sincerity, magnanimity and piety. Equally in domestic and social life, and in

the great transactions of the State in which

they became concerned, their conduct was without fear and reproach. With all these advantages, the Puritans, as naturally as

promulgated. With effective simplicity, ther confined themselves to the main point in debate. They neither pretended to deBne nor to make luminaries ot all tho natural rights of man which tvranny might invade, nor to trace out the ultimato secular conse-

quences of the great principle on which they insisted. They rested tho defence of the one natural right, whieh was distinctly in- vaded, on no grounds of expediency or of

public utility, but on the grbunus alone that God had given it, and that man could not either inva<le or surrender it, without sin against the Divine Majesty. It was the peculiarity oI the right thus invaded and de- tended, that lent to the Puritans their crown

ing advantage. Religion is the profoundest and most universal atlection of our nature.

Apparently the cause of innumerable differ- ences and endless controversies, it is, never-

theless. the one common and principal elo- inent which control* the nctions of all men. It sustained the Puritans. It gradually won for them the respect and sympathies of men and of nations. Tho right assailed brought equally conscience and the love ol liberty, the two moat elastic and enduring springs ot activity, into resistance. Its in- Tasion <*us sacrilegious, because it assumed to add to the Divine commandments, and to take away from disobedience to them the curses that art written against it io tho Book of Life. • • • • • • » #

Let us consider now tho scope and full import of tho Puritan principlo. That scope is not narrowed by any failure of tho Puri- tans themselves to comprehend it, or even

by any neglect on their part to cover it ful- ly in their own political conduct. Christian- ity is the same, however narrowed or per- verted by erroneous creeds or practices among the faithful. Nor U the res 1 merit of the Puritans diminished, becuso they did not fully comprehend all possible applica- tions of the principle they maintained. Hu- man progress is only the following of an

endlesa chain, suspended Irom tho throne of God. The links ol that chain are infinito. The human hand can grasp only one of them at once.

The Puri'an principle ot the inviolability of the light of conscience, necessarily cov- ers the inviolability of all the acknowledged natural rights of man, as well thoso which concern his duty to himself and his duty to others, as those which mri*o out of his direct duties towards God Certainly tho Creator and Ruler.'of the Univorse, the be- neficent Father ond Preserver of ull lile, tho universal Lawgiver and Judgo of all moral brings, is not in any human sense a jealous nud exacting God, incen ed by tho with- holding of homage due to himself, and yet regardless of the neglect of other human duties wh:ch be has pr<»scribo<l. Assuredly, when he commands us not only to walk humbly before lliaisoll, but also to perfect our own nature, and to do justice, and love mercy towards other men, he has givon us

the same absolute right to tho freo cx»rcue

of our faculties, in pcrlorming these latter duties, that he has given us for the per- I fortnance of the first. Nor is there any homage to God so acceptable as the upright heart and pure. He that loveth not his brother, whom he hath seen, bow can ho love God whom he hath not seen ?

Tho Puritan principle further involvos the

political equality of all men. Ahsolute rights arise out of tho moral constitution of m in. There is only one moral constitution of all men. The absolute rights of all men

are therefore the same. Political equality is nothing else than the (ull enjoyment, by every member of the State, of tho absolute rights which belong equally to all men.—

Any abridgement of that equality, on whit- over consideration, cxcept by discriminating JU9IICT7 HI MIU puiil9iiui«;u» vi vuuits, mcjv-

ing upon the right of conscience. • * * • ♦ # # ♦

The Puritun principle draws closely alter it the consequences of un absolute separation of Church and State, for (he reason that the toleration of conscience can in no other way Iv* practically and completely established That aepur ition baa been made in the Amer- ican constitutions, with abundint advantage to both the cause of religion and the cause

of good government. Great Britain ia ad- r mcing steadily towards the adoption of the lamo broad, just and beneficent policy. The i *paration of Church and State may thero Tore be regarded ns a contribution mado by the Puritans towards perfecting the art of

jovernment. The political equality of men has also met

srith obstinate resistance, and h.ia also ichieved many and auspicious ttiumpha.— After ooe hundred and fiifty years of con-

troversy, it waa carried into the British con- ititution by the judicial decision in Suner- jot's case, that a slave could not breathe the air of England. Ten or fifteen year* later, t was theoretically adopted and promulgat »d in the Declaration, of American Independ- >nce. The suppression of the African slave trade, by convention of the Statoa of Chris- endom, transferred the same princinlo to the aw of nations. The abolition of slavery by J1 t.ie European nations, and with few ex-

•eptions, alto by all of the American States, s indicative of the universal adoption of the tame gtvat principle by all Christian nations, it some period not far distant.

You are now prepared. I truat, Tor anoth-

er and still more comprehensive view of the puritan principle, mtinoly : that its lull and wrfcct development ii the puie system of

vpublic in goveromenl. Such was iu mark- k1 tendency in the beginning. " A gener- >ui disdain of one man'e will," save a trulj >hil<Mophical writer, " is to Republic* what ihastitv ia to woman—a conservative princi- >le, not to be argued unon or aubjee'ed to

raleulationa of utility. Puritanism «u a

jrotcst ogtinst tho will of one man, whether lhat mas was Pope or King. What lorin of

government, other thin the pure Kepublio, .-an there be, where there ia complete appar- ition of church and Slate, and where abso

lute political equalitv prevails ? Abolish the

ranncction ol chuirn and State, and all po- litical distinctions betwoin the member* of

the State, in any of the king-lorn* or empire* of Europe, and what would remain, or could exiat there but a pur* Republic 1 If the ar-

gument ia not jet conclusive, consider then that tho Puritan ptinciple tjnda to th* pure RepubHe, by virtue of iu conservative pro- tection oi the individual member of the State

against it* corporate oppression ; bj virtue, also, of it* elevation of individual conscience —thus bringing down the importanoe of the

aggregate mass, and raising the personal importanoe and dignity of the subjeet or cit isen; by virtue of the importance it attachee to pereonal right*, exalting them above material interest*—and *o making those

right*, and not property, the primary object ol lhe care of government; and by virtue still further, ol the openness, directness, and frankness of conduct which it require*.— Equal tolerance in religioo, and equal eiyoy- tnrnt of the ot!ier absolute rights of man,

arc inconsistent with the aecrecy and fraud which mooarcby and aristocracy necessarily employ, and cannot endure private councils or cautls. The Puritan principle tends to the pure Republic still more obviously, be* cause it seeks to abridge the powers of gov- ernment, and substitute consent and free aoquieecence as the bond of union between the members of the State, instead of armed or military force. This operation of the principle is happily illustrated in our own

Republio, which, although constituted by an

ever-increasing number oi distinct States, has nevertheless been held together eighty years, and is, I truit, to be held together loroTor, without, for that purpose, even the shadow of a standing army—an anomaly as

I pleasiog aa it is full of profitable instruction. The oration closes as follows : Come forward, then, ye nations, States,

and races—tude, savage, oppressed and de- spised—enslaved, or naturally warring among yourselves, as ye are—upon whom the morning star of civilisation hath either not yet dawned or hath only dimly broken ami>l clouds and storms, and receive the

1 asaurance that its shining shall yet bo com-

; plete, and iu light be poured down on all alike. Receive our pledges that we will wait and watch and »lrivo for the fullness of that light, by the exercise ot faith, with patience and perseverance. And ye rover* end men, whose precious dnst is beneath our unworthy feel, pilgrims and sojourners in this vale of tears no longer, but kings and princes now at tho right hand of tho throne of the God you served so faithfully when on the earth—gather yourselves, immortal and awful shades, around us, and witness, not the useless honors we pay to your mem-

ories, but our resolves of fidelity to truth, duty and freedom, which arise out of the contemplation of the beneficent operation

; of your own great principle of conduct, and | the ever-widening influence of your holy I teachings and Godliko example

At the dinner table, speeches were made by various individuals. One, received with cheers, was as follows :

The Orator of the day—Eloquent in liis tribute to the virtues of the Pilgrims ; faith* ful, in his life, to the lossoris they taught.

Hon. William H. Seward, the Orator of (the Day, spoke in response substantially as follows:

Ladies and Gnitlanen—Tho Puritans were Protestants, but they were not protestants

I against everybody and everything, right or I wrong. They did not protest indiscrimin-

against everything they found in Eng-

abuudant indications in the works of genius ! and art which they lelt behind them, they hail a reverence for all that is good and true, while they protected against everything that was false and vicious. They had a

| reverence for the ?ood taste and the litera- ture, science, eloquonce and poetry of Eng- land, and so I trust it is with their succes- sors in this once bleak and inhospitable, but

| now rich and prosperous land. They can

appreciate poetry, as well as good seme and good taste, and so I call to your rcccl- Icction the language of a poet, who had not

1 loomed up at the time of the Puritans as ho has since. It was addressed to his stood, after an ill-starred journey from London to

Islington town. '1 he poet said : " TV»« for your pK-a*ur« you e*rao brre. You ihall ko buck for mloc." (Laughter.)

Being a candid and frank man, at one

ought to be who addresses the descendants of the Putitans, 1 may say that it was not at all fur your pleasure that I came here.— Though I may go lack to gratify you, vet I came hero for my own purposes. Tho timo has passed nway when 1 could make a distant journey from a mild climo to a cold, though lair region, without inconvenience ; but there was one wish, I might almost say there was only one wish of my heart that I was anxious should be gratified. I had been favored with inanv occasions to «ee the seats of empire in this Western world, and had never omitted occasions to see

where the seats of empire were planted, and how lliey prospered. I had visited the capital of my own and of many other Amer- ican States. I hail regatded with admira- tion the capital of this great republic, in wlnse destinies, in common with you all, I leel an interest which can neverdio. 1 had seen the capitals of the K itish Empire, and of many foreign empires, and had endeav- ored to study for myteli the principles, which have prevailed in the foundation of States and empires. With that view I had beheld a city standing where a migration from the Netherlands planted an empire on tho bay of New York, at Manhattan, or

ey sought to plant a commercial empire, anil ihcy did not fuil, but in New York now, although they cclehrato the memories and virtue* of fatherland, there is no day dedicat- ml to tho colonization of New York by its original centers, the immigrants from Hol- land. I have vi«itcd Wilmington,on Chris- tina Creek, in Delaware, where a colony waa planted by the Swedes, about the limo of the settlement of Plymouth, and though the old church built by tho colonics still standi there, I learned that there did not remain in the whole State a family capable of speaking the language, or conscious of bearing the name o( ono of tho thirty-one original coloni«t«. I havs stood on the spot where a treaty was made by William Penn with the aborigine* of Pennsylvania, where a seat of empire was established by him, and although tto statua of tho good man stands in public places, and his mem-

ory remains in the minds of men, yet there is no day act apart for the recollection ol the time and occasion when civil and re-

ligious liberty were planted in that State. I went still further South, and descending ihe James river sought tho first colony of Virginia at Jamestown. There remains nothing but the broken, ruined tower of a

poor church buil: of brick, in which Poca- nontxs was married, and over tho ruins of which the ivy now creeps. Not a human being bond or free, is to bo seen within the sircumTerence of a mile from the spot, nor

i town or city as numerously populated as

Plymouth on the whole shores ol tho broad, !»aullful, majestic river, between Richmond it Ihe hoad.and Norfolk, where arma and ihe government have established fortifica* lions. Nowhere olso in America, then, was there left a remembrance by tho de- fendants of the founders of colonios, of the virtues, the suflerincs, the bravery, the Fidelity to truth an<l freedom, of their ances-

tors; nnd more painful still, nowhere in Europe can be found an acknowledgement, ir even a memory of these colonists. In Holland, in Spsin, in Great Britain, in France, nowhere is thero to be found any remembrance of the men they sent out to

plant liberty on this rontinent. So on Ihe

nay to mo .Mivtissippi, i i.iw wncro ue

Solo planted the s'an.fard of Spain, and in imacination .it least, I followed the march if Cortrz in Mexico, and Pizarro in l'eru ; >ut their memory has gono out. Civil lib- iftv perishes ami religions liberty was nev-

»r known in South America, nor does Spain inj more than other lands, retain the mem-

try of the apostles she sent out to convert ho new world to a purer faith, and rai«o [he hopes of mankind for the well being of the future.

Hot there was one only place, where a

company of outcasts, men despised, con-

temned, reproached as malcontents and

fanatics, had planted a colony, and that col* ony, had grown and flourished ; and there had nerer been a day since it was planted, that the very town, and shore and coast, wbero it was planted had not grown and

spread in population, wealth, prosperity and happiness, richer and stronger continually.

1

It had not only grown and flourished like a 1

vigorous tree, rejoicing in its own strength, I but it bad sent out oflshoota in all directions. Everywhere the descendants of these col- onists were found engaged in the struggles 1

for civil and religioua liberty, and the rights i

of man. I bad found them by my aide, the

champions of humanity, upon whoae stal- wart arms I might safely rely.

I came here, then, because the ocoasion offered, and if I pretermitted this, it might be the last, and I was unwilling that aoj friend or any child, who might lean upon me, who reckoned upon my counsel or ad- vice, should know that I had been such a

truant to the cause of religious liberty and

humanity, as never to hare aeen tho Rock of Plymouth. [Cheers.]

My missiou now being accomplished, having shetl tear* in the first ohurch of the Puritans, when the heartfelt benediction was pronounced over my unworthy head by that venerable pastor, I have only to a»k that I be dismissed from further amice with your kind wishes. I will hold the oc- oasion ever dear to my remembrance, for il is here I have found tbo solution of the great political probUtm. Like Archimedes, I have found the fulcrum by whoso aid I

may move the world—the moral world—and that fulcrum is Plymouth Rock. [Loud ap- plause.]

Wendall Phillips, E«a., was called upon to respond to a toast to the Pilgrim Fathers, and was received with cheers. He said tb« line of thought of the oration—the deef resounding march with which the oratoi pasted in review the centuries, and pointed out their signification—had full possessioi of all their minds, and he could not depar from it. The claim of the Pilgrims unor

their age, was that they had acted whilt others speculated, and instead of letting •' 1 dare not" wait upoA " I would," launch* ed boldly upon the Atlantic and trusted God, They can claim every free altar and fret homo as their work, for they tanght men t< bo free. The Pilgrims, if they had lived ir 1855, would not be in Plymouth, but ii Kansas, if Elder Brewster were alive not he would add to his creed tho Maine Law, the Under Ground Railroad, and n thousand of Sharpe's rifles, addressed " Kansas," iiiuf labelled "Rooks." [Applause.]

Ho would not acknowledge tho right ol Plymouth to the whole rook ; it underlies the whole country, and only crops out hire, It cropped out, too, when Putnam said—

' " Don't fire, boys, until you seo tho whTiet of thoir eyes." [Cheers!] It ahowed itsel when Ingraham rescued Martin Kotza fronr Austrian despotism. Jefferson used it foi his writing-desk, and Lovejoy levelled hit musket across it at Alton, Illinois. H< recognized tho clink of it to-day when the great apostle of tho higher law laid hisbeaa liful ffarlund unon tho sucrcd nlinr. fMr. Seward remarked thai he had not n descend ant of the Pilgrims of tho Mayflower.] H< •ays he is not descended from tho May flower, said Mr. Phillips; it is n mistake, There is such a thing as pedigreo of mind as woll as of body, and he knows so much about the Mayflower, that I am sore, as t

Western man would say, ho was " tl:ar." [Cheers and laughter.]

It was proposed to raiso a moriumci.t tr tho Pilgrims, and he would suggest thai one cornor stone bo placed upon tho Bock, and tho other U|ton that apol whero lie the fifty of that noble band who perished the first winter. Every sdbond man of them went down to the gravo, but they onlj clos- ed up their ranks, shoulder to shouU'er.— They stood between the tempest anJ the English sovereign, but they chose Jeath rather than compromise.

Who struck the strongest blows for *elig- ious liberty ? Was it those reformers who stood nearest the English throne, or was il tho uncompromising band whoso sliength was developed In America * Carter anil Bradford did not stop to criticiso ; liki Mi- chael Angclo, thoy criticised bv creation.— Tho Edinburg Review calls them intoler- ant, but it gets it* yard atick to measure their intolerance from the tery insli utions these men havo given them. Ho would select as mottoes to bo placed on th« Pil- grim monument, oter tho rock, " Tho right —it is moro than our country," and over tho grates of tho fifty, 11 Death rather tlun compromise."

Ho distrusted tho word "Compromise," and would kick it out of doors, lie had no doubt our lathers talked for lluncombe sometimes, as, for instance, in their expres- sions of allegiance to Elizabeth, and to King Georgo; but underlying (hit lnn- 2ua<;o of couiiesy, was a iloep earnestness of purpose. Governor Doutwell talked ntaut taste, but ho remembered that the Pilgrims voted that each man build his own house, and he hoped that each ono of their descendants would continuo ta luiiM his own mental house The Pit >•»:...» Imilt in- siitiitions for men, not men for institutions. They planted wisely, and though wo may have men to dreadfully conservativo (hat they dread to sweep down the cobweb* lest the roof should fall, nnd oppose the new moon out of rcspect lor that venerable in- stitution of the old moon, yet iho seed will never be so deeply covered up but that it will bear tho glorious fruit of liberty. He was sometimes called a fanatic, nnd would acknowledge that he trained in that compa- ny ; yet he was suro that this generation was far behind 1020. He yet saw before him the venerable forma of the Pilgrims of the Mayflower. [Loud cheers ]

Hi: Systematic. It will add mote to jrour convenience and comfort through life than you can now Imagine. It saves time, laves temper, saves patience, nnd saves

THE UNION

E4STERN JOURNAL. Biddeford, Friday Morning, Dee. !8, 18H.

Close of the Volame.

The eleventh volume of oar paper closes with this number. We havo endeavored to

make our weekly visits to the houses of oui

patrons pleasant and profitable, omitting nothing within our mean*, to contribute to

the interest of our readers, and to fulfill just expectations. While we cannot prom- ise to be more solicitious to satisfy hereaf- ter, or to increase our labor to make our

paper valuable, we may venture to suggest, that increased means, added to wider ex-

perience can scarcely fail of rendering it more acceptable and useful to the commu-

nity in which it tnainly circulates. The

year to come promises to be one of more

than usual interest. In the wide field of business, politics and morals, there is prom- ise of more than ordinary activity and for honest, earnest workers. Abroad the social elements are unsettled, the clash of con-

tending armies still continues, giving interest to passing events, and demanding wider space for their circulation among the peo- ple. At home, whether we look to the National or to the Stato Legislature, to the mart of trade or to the quiet of the country, whether wo survey the field of morals, or

tho field of politics, we see the foreshadow- ings of important events in whioh the peo- ple have a deep interest, and which the

journalist will be called to spread out with increased care.

Tho past yoar hat brought lu us ila re-

verses, a* well as successes. In aomo

things our expectations have Tailed. Tho earnest hopo for tho attainment of ends which would have given a greater share of

political and moral prosperity to the Slate, has been frust.ated, but the end ia not yet!

Looking back with no regret for past ac-

tion, but earnest as ovor for the right, and hopeful for the future, we shall pass from the old to the Now Year, ready to work and to wait, and meaning to neglect nothing which should be brought homo to the pub- lic who look to us for a record of passing event*. We have already seourcd tho means of making improvement! in tho ty- pographical execution of our paper, and •hall mako our appearance in our next in tho birth day suit we have provided and we

hope that this, together with the determin- ation to chroniclo the interesting events which aro foreshadowed to come to pass, will be the means of adding to the length of oursubscription list.

Thanking onr old friends for past patron- ago, reminding delinquents to pay up, and hoping that every body, and evory body's uncle, and rotative who wants a good paper, will subscribe for ours. Wo close up the books of tho past, and make preparation for the re-opening of them on the New Year.

An Attractive Gift Book Just Pub* limied. Forest Buds, a collection of poems, by Florence Percy. 200 pp 10 mo. Price 73 cents in plain cloth; J 1,00 full Gilt.— The usual discount to the trade. This vol- ume is noaily printed on line while p.ipor, And bound in various styles. Moet of the

poems it contains origi nnlly appeared in the leading literary periodicals of New

England. Many of :hem have been ex-

tensively copied, and have become as famil- iar as household words throughout the

country. Competent critics pronounco soino of them as worthy of taking rank

among tho finest pocrni in the langaago. Wo presume that there Is no occasion for

secrcsy in regard lo the real mine of the

pootess. It is probably known to the most of our readers that Mrs, L. C. Taylor, of Furmington Falls, has for several yean, over

a variety ol signatures, contributed to the

leading litorary periodicals of New England many poems of great merit, which have been

extensively copied and much admired. Her fuvorito pseudonym has been Floronco Por-

cy. and by this name she is beat known.

Many of her best poems havo appeared originally in the Portland Transcript. It

may not bo amiss to say that the en-

tire benefit of tho publication of tho work is secured to Mrs. Taylor. Any fa- vor shown to the work will bo a direot benefit to a lady who is an ornamont to the

literature of tho Slato. We have published occasionally gems from tho talented autaor-

es«, and trust tho work will meet with an

extended and rapid sale. For salo at Boy- den's, Washington Block.

The State or Maine. After the first of January, this Portland daily will bo pub- lished as an evening paper. The arrange- ment will be a convenient ono for the East- em section of the Statu. Thero is a com•

mendable degree of labor bestowed on this

paper b^ its proprietors in all things but their politic*, whioh are hunkorish beyond measure, excepting now and thon, when

they get up a little well seasoned indigna- tion on Nebraska outrages, which continues about ono month, and then subsides into a

worse state than the first; but they are pa- tient, industrious collectors of the items of

public interest

Rots' Boot and Shot Establishment continue* to be thronged with cash custom-

era. The Rom's understand that by keep- ing a large stock, the newest styles, having good articles, selling at low prices, and pat- ronizing well the printer, who keep* them

always before the publio; the end of busi-

ness, " good profits," is attained. Large sales, small profits, and satisfaction always given, is the secret of success; and the

Ross's, acting op to this motto, aro bound to go ahead and get rich, while Iba sleepy ones are plodding in the old track, which

keeps them just where they are. There is

nothing in the shoe or boot line, from an

elegant kid slipper to a cowhide brogan, that may not be found at Host's Liberty at.

N*w Y tins' Guts. The rush for Christ*

mas gifts is over, but New Year's day is close at band. Don't forget the presents to the children. A little sum invested in

toys for them will yield a rich per cent, in

general lore and good behaviors. Oar

friend, Mr. I lock IIill, has i shop fall of

them, and he and his better half are most

patient waiters while the selection is being made. It is no easy matter to select toys especially if there is a large lot to select

from, but this work is made comparatively easy in Mr. Hill's shop. Don't forget to call

and aee his assortment.

The Plymouth Celebration. We a»k

allcniion to the extract* wo publish from (ho oration of Hon. Win. H. Seward, de- livered on Friday last, at Plymouth, at the

celebration of the anniversary of the land-

ing of the Pilgrim*. Speaking of thi* ora-

tion, the Boaton Atlaa, which publiahca it entire, aaya

"It ii a work of rare merit, and one of the moat vigoroua, taatefol, and philoaophi- cal production* ever called forth by the an*

oiver»ary. Mr. Seward ha* studied, to

good purpose, the hutory and character ol the Puriiana, and haa given to both, by hia illustration*, a new Intereat. Although widely published in the newspaper*, we

hope thi* great tfration will be immediately given to the publie in a convenient and permanent form.

In eleven of the alave state*, containing 790,000 while inhabitanta, fire-eight* of which cannot read and write, 80 electoral votea are thrown.

In Now York, whero nearly ull can read and write, containing 800,000 inhabitanta, only 36 electoral votea are thrown.

During 70 yeara of the existence of our

government, slaveholder* have occupied the Preaidency 49 yeara, K.d Northern

Doughfacea nearly 12 yeara. So much for ignorance, slavery, and

Dooghfaceiam.

A New Firm. Wo are glad to team lhat n young man, Mr. Applkto* Nason, who has attracted oar notice, a* wall m that

of others, by hii industry, good habits, and courteous demeanor, while in tho employ* ment of Messrs. Hill k Sand*, Saco, for several year*, and afterwards with Messrs. Hazeltine Co Saco, has associated him-

self with Mr. Jesse Gould, and tho two, under the firm name of Gould k Nason, have commenced the grocery business, in the store recently occupied by Mr. Boy- den, near Smith'* Corner. If correct prin- ciples, attention to business, cooplod with

enterprising habita, will ensure success, tho new firm is bound to succeed. Our young friend Naaon has tho apirit of accom*

tnodation and ol business largely developed, and if his partner has similar traits, and we

are told that ho is equally fortunate, the

good public will show their appreciation ol these qualities by giving them a liberal share of patronage.

The Senate Committees. The venal in- struments of the slave power, who disgrace the once respectable name of Senator, lancy that they have done something astonishing* ly acute when they utterly xclude from tho most important committees all members suspected of fidelity to freedom. They have the power to put Mr. Sumner upon the Pension Committee, arid to pais over

such men iu Ke«.«endeii, of Maine, or Foote, of Vermont, infixing tho appointments.— They have the power, and so havo other blackguaids, fortunately not Senator', the

Ejwer to <lo underbred and insultiui! things, ut tho best of the joke U, that these wise-

acres fancy mat oy mis course mey arc

really Joint; something lo stay the progress of that reform, which Mill, before many years have gone by, hoiit some of them out

of their seals. Never were deluded mortals moro mistaken. The only result of their

Dspi'e will be a renewed feeling at tho i of the importance of union for tho

sake ol securing to tho free Status their s>rare of inducnco in the government. The exclusiro gentlemen havo done us tho fa- vor of proving our whole case for us ; and have virtually said "We mean to make Massachusetts n cypher, and Maine and Vermont of no account in tho Senate."— That is preci««|y what we have again and again charged upon them, and wo thank them now tor this tacit admission of the truth of tho accusation.

Very soon these people will have lost the power thus to insult us. The time is not far distant when the pwtr as well as the

right will be with tho parly of freedom, by wlivtever name it may bo callod. And then it will be amusing lo notico how these

sycophants will change their tune, and fawn upon those they are now insulling.— Yon will find them growing suddenly cour* icons with a Free State President, elected by Free Slate votes, in the While House —

These folks, who, to use the language of Mr. Blair, "arrogate to themselves the ox- elusive tutelage of the Democracy of the country*' will grow suddenly compliant nnd civil, when they find to their utter dismay ihut power and patronage have been trans- ferred to tho other aide, and that Iroason to Ihejwillof their constituents will no long- er promote their Presidential aspirations.— Their present arroganco will serve the cause nf liberty a good turn. Something liko it is needed lo convince certain very good peo- ple in the Free Slates that the slavo power is really agsrossive, greedy and domineer- ing. The Kansas bill did much. Tho al- nost incredible servility of the Democratic majority in tho Senate will do more. We like to seo them showing themselves as

hey are — bigolod, pioscriptive, grasping ind pig-headed. Wo like to have the Washington Union denounce all freedom, md particularly freedom of speech. We iko to hear the voice of Caleb Gushing pro. Haiming that "agitation" must be put down. kVe like to seo the Senato tabooing every nan who will not oat grass and crawl.— iVhen things are at tho worst, tbey aro the loonest mended.

Col. Walker'* Doings in Nicaragua.— The Aspinwall (Panama) correspondent of he New York Evening Poet thus speaks of he execution of Gen. Corral and the gen- ital scope of Walker's expedition

"Corral is reported to have died like a

rut and bravt man. His only regret at lying, he said, was that ho loft an aged nolher and two helpless sisters without neans of support, and a country torn by nternal factions and plundered by ruthless breigh iuvsilers.

This invasion of a neighboring stale by a

land of lawless men of notoriously bad re-

pate, who were openly embarked from a

port in the united State*, under the very ere

of our government official*, having pub* lished their intention long before the event took place, appears rather strange to us out- aidera, especially when viewed in connec- lion with the government'* treatment of Gen. Wool, who had just put down such an

attempt. While Caleb Cushing is fulminating

political anathemas against British minis- ters and consuls who are using lawful means

to induce the worthless denizens of your city to go to her majesty's dominions and enlist in her Crimean armies, is not some

other stockjobbing, aorlp (peculating mem* ber of Mr. Pierce's cabinet enoouraging this species of piraoy, peculiar to our young American republic, and which seems to

be peculiary grateful to the taste of the fill* ibustoriog arm of our strangely ineoosisteot government at Washington.

There is but one sentiment among for- eign residents hereabouts, which is. that Walker and hii associates are no better than pirates, and that the murder of the CaU ifornia emigrants who were abot through his interference, should subject him to the severest penally of the law. The shooting of poor Corral was also a inurdtr of the worst kind, for which Walker and hi* friend and comrade, Parker French, of California and Texas memory should be made respon- sible."

A Political PuTroaM. The Demo- cratic members of the Legislature of Flori- da reoently held a meeting, and appointed the second Wednesday in April neit for the nomination ol delegates to the Cincinnati Convention. These delegates will be in- structed to insist upon tb« adoption of a

platform of principles as tho basis of a nt-

tional 01 ionization piioc to the nomination of candidates, and that said platform aball among otb«r thinga include, in *ub*tance, the following proposition* r—

1. Tho reco(tuition* and adoption of th* principle* established in the Kansas-Nebras- ka act, and their application to the admis- sion of neur State*.

2. That neither the Missouri Compro- mise nor any other anti-Slavery reatrictiona ■hall hereafter be extended over any terri- tory of the United State*.

3. The prompt and faithful execution oi tho Fugitive Slave law, and it* permanent continuance upon tho statute book.

If these proposition* shall not in auba- tftncu be incorporated in the platform adopt- ed by the convention, the delegate* from Florida will be inatiucted to withdraw.

Saturday Dec 22.

In tho houae, on Saturday, a resolution was adopted confining every member in de bate to ten minute*. Mr. Slatoo offered a

resolution to elect a Speaker by a plurality vote. The roll waa called and the resolu- tion waa tabled by a vote of 114 again*! 107. Mr. Sapp offered a resolution that after Saturday the House shall meet at 10 o'clock, A. M.t until the election of a

Speaker. Rejected by two majority. Mr. Perry said that the House had decid-

ed to-day not to elect a Speaker by pluraliiy therefore ho offered a resolution that after to-day no debate be in order until the Speak- er is elected. Ha thought tliia plan, if adopted, would result in the speedy organi- zation of the Houso.

Mr. Keiit ottered as an amendment thai alter to-day all balloting for Sneaker be

suspended until the third day of January, the reason assigned beiog that a majority of the Senate havo left the city, and it will be therefore impossible to obtain a quorum for iho reading of the messago, even U the House should organize before that time.

Mr. Bocock suggested that acting under ordinary parliamentary usage, n mijurny might rescind the resolution, oral then pro- ceeding to ballot an undue advantage might bo taken.

Mr. Keitt said it would be base and in- famoaa to do so.

Mr. Sherman maintained that the first business to be done was to elect a Speaker, and the House cannot postpone that duty.

The Hou»e refused by a majority of ten to lay tt.o wholo subject on the table.

Mr. Keltt's nmendment waa rejeoted, and the consideration of Mr. Perry's reso- lution postponed until Monday, when tho House adjourned.

A Washington correspondent of the Her* a!«l teloi(rnphed 0:1 Saturday evening, to that journal, as follows :—

" Today's proceedings in the llou^e are

bn'li indicative and afcriifiranl. The plu- rality proposition was voted down by a com-

Another correspondent enys, " I am as-

sured that it is the purposti of Mr. Fuller to withdraw on Monday I'.omi tho contest for Speakership, and that another candidate will bo put forward hy tho X itiorial Ameri- can party,"

Wasiiikuton, Due 24. House —'The following arc the proceed-

ings in the Hou»e this morning— Mr. Lester, having received from time to

time two votes f ir Speaker, staled distinctly that he had never been a candidate for the office, and never would be.

Ho stated this lest it misjht be suspected that there might be something wrong in hia position. He had as consistently and reg- ularly voted for Mr. Banks as any other man in tho House.

Mr. Stewart, in explaining the reasons why he had been voting for Mr. Ri«hsrdson saidthal his " Richardson and Mr. Fuller's position had been explained distinctively and explicitly, but Mr. Banks had not."— He asked Mr. Banks if in a speech in Maine ho ever said, " Let the Union slide 1"

Mr. Banks replied—In that speech he j said there mi^ht do such a state of things, \ I.. I... »«,«!.< nnn..n» It tin,I

unco to future conlin^encit-a, such as the prostration of the gigantic power of the government to the support of a single insli- tntion—'lavcry. Ho was for the union as

it ii, and would meet its enemiea in a fair field. He wna for the union aa the guaran- ty of tho rights of tho stale* and the main prop of our government. He would hare the Union stand on the recorda of hiatory, in the langungo of Washington—-crowned with immorality and fame.

Mr. Smith, of Virginia, K. N., am not satisfied with the answer ol the gontlemon, did you say, under ciroumatancea you would let thu union slide.

Mr. Batiks—I have said nil I doaire to

say. Mr. Smith of Vn.,—I wlih it to be dia-

tinctlv underitood that those who auataln Mr. Banks, are voting for him with the

knowledge that in a certain contingency he would let the union slide.

Mr. Grow aaid—I ask the genta and every member who haa been here for the las: four years, whether such a declaration has not beon repeated time to time by aome

of thoao who are uow voting for Richard* aon, namely, that they are willing to dis- solve the union—let it alids in a certain contingency. We stand here to aupport the compromise of the constitution, aa it is explained by the father* of the republic, ana by contemporaneoua reporta for over

sixty yeara—we aay wo nre not willing to

take any other contraction, or to consent

that slavery shall go wherever ou* flag floats.

Mr. Ruik aaid—He believed from the beqining that all debate wan out of order, aa the tint business before the House was

the election of a speaker. Tbe proposition pending when the House adjourned on Sat- urday, namely, that no debate shall be in order until after the election of a apeaker was tabled.

A resolution to elect tbe apeaker by a

plurality waa rejected by fifteen nava—the llouso then voted with tbe lollof ing re- sult—•

Banks, 101; Richardson, 73 ; Fuller, 37;

.Mr. Stewart submitted a proposition dec- laratory ot the national principle* on which the speaker of the Houae ahould stand.

Mr. CoWox stated if Mr. Stewart would accent as a substitute a proposition oppos- ing the annexation of Cuba, and appropria- ting bj annexation of Oregon surrendered to Ureat Briiian by Mr. Polk, he might then vote with thai gent. [Laughter.]

Mr. Bocock raised a question of an or-

Jer, saving tho law required that a Sneak- er be elected and members sworn, Defore the transaction of other business.

Mr. Boyoo asked Mr. Banks among other

questions—are you in favor of recognising Kayti, and receiving a block minister ?— Do jou favor the abrogation of the fugutive ilave law, and the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia 1 [Cries from the friends of Mr. Banks—call the roll—coo- fusion.]

Mr. Banks rnplied to Mr. Bojoe, and nid he distinctly recollected Mr. Richard- ion as being a candidate for Speaker, had declined giving answers to questions pro- pounded to him. [Laughter—cries of good, good—call the roll.]

Mr. Florence here made an ineffective attempt to have the House adjourned until rhuraday, for the purpoee, as he aaid, that members might participate in the religious ind social observances of CbrUtman.— [Laughter ]

Mr. Brooks referred to the enunciations »f Messrs. Banks and Gwin, said in the re-

verse contingency he was willing to let the Union slide, and if the genta on the other tide who support Mr. Banks have that fix- id determination, he wanted his conalito- mis to know it. He desired the issue made liere that it might be frankly meet if neo-

MUJ.

Mr. Shorter, although voting for Mr. Richardson, was willing to unite on eome other oonaervative candidate, who lha Miaaooii Compromise lino ahould not b« restored.

In order to effect an election, the Ilouaa then voted with tha following rranll:

Banka 101 ; Riehardaon 72; Fuller 31 ; Pennington 4 ; acatteriiij* 7; neceuaiy to a cboiee 108.

Nicholson offered a resolution that a

Speaker bo elected by a ploialitj vote, which waa tabled by a tola of 116 against 101.

Mr. Orr moved that when the Ilooae ad- journ, it be till Thuraday.

Mr. Giddings aaid we bare no power to adjourn, if the motion waa agreed. A ma- jority may come here to-morrow, rererae the order ana elect a Speaker.

Mr. Orr—If a apeaker were elected under ■ueh cireumatancea, the majority would And 'Jordan a hard road to travel/ [Laughter.]

Mr. Florence—It would be a very pretty ssample for chriatiaa men to eat toe ooun- Iry. [Merriment.]

Mr. Orr'a motion waa negatived, and the Houee adjourned to Wednesday.

The Inruion of Kinui. The New York Tribune of Saturday, haa

direct acoounta from Kanatfa of much later late than thoee prcvioualy received—the newa being brought by a gentleman direct from Lawrence. Theae acoounta confirm the report of the withdrawal of theMiseou* ri mob. The terror of the good arms and the reeolute conduct of the Free State men ol Kansae hare preserved them Irom destruc- tion, and their familiea from horrora than death. Tho following is tho informa- ItAH

We tarn from Mr. J. Willeta. who ar- rived in New York yesterday from Lawrence, K. T.. which place he led on the 10th inst., that Got. Shannon had discharged hla army of bolder ruffians, who had returned to their hornet, and that peace and ouict once more reigned in Kansas. The ruffians were very much oxaspcrated at (he Governor when they learned that he bad concluded not to uae thein in an attempt to teduce the people of Kanaaa to the vaasalsge of Missouri.— Thcj charged hie excellency with perfidy, and thrmtcned to Tiait him with their very

!articular vengeance at eome future time, 'he ruffian array, eome 12,000 atrong, while

atntioned at Franklin, mado ptiaonera of all who paaeed that way, either going to or com* ing from Lawrence, and oa a rulo robbed their prisoners of auch articlee of value aa

they happened to poetess. They stopped tho U. S Mail, made a prisoner ot the car- rier, and detain*! him about an hour, when some ol the shrowder ones came to the con* clucion that they might perhapa get them- lelvcs into difficulty with uncie Sam, so they finally released their prisoner, und let him

with the mail to Lawrence. Mr. Willets assures us that not more than

fifty of tho Governor's twelve hundred men were residents of Kansas ; but to make a iliow of regularity, they camo aero#a tho Missouri lino into tho territory, (fetching their arms with them, of course) before be- ing enrolled into tho service.

Coleman, tho murderer of young Dow, ia still at large, and during (be invasion waa

promoted to offieo in the cainp of tho marau* lorn. Got. Shannon excuse* bimsslf for [ho ridiculous figure he has been cutting by ia)ing that ho did not understand tho posi- tion ol the Free State men—in other worda he peoplo of Kansas—that tho state of things had l>een grossly misrepresented to lim or he nover would have iasued his proc- lamation, &.c. Our infonnant is of opinion that had the Governor led his ruffians sgainst the peoplo at Lawrence ho would have been !>adly beaten. They were very well forts— Tied, had n force of about 1000 atrong, witb iOO of Sharpe'a nil's, capuhle of discharg- ing ten times a minute, and doing execution at a distance of one mile ; and from prac- tice it had bcon demonstrated that there •art plenty of men in Lawrence who coold lit a mark the aim of a man, Tour times in ive, at a distance of half a mile. So, had he Miaaourinns marched against Lawrence :hey would liavo stood n " right smart :hance" of being cut to picoea by the 300 Jharpo'a rifloa boforo coming in range of the 7Ui' common mica.

Tho story extensively circulated in Mis- aouri and tlio East that ilio people of Kan- aaa had reccdcd from their poaition as a con- iJition of being lot alono ia utterly unirue and without foundation ; but the story bad to be told aa a cover for retreat by the Gov- ernor and hia partya. The peoplo of Kan- zm occupy pteciaely the ground they occu-

pied before the raid, vis : that ol law-abi- ding citiscna : but they do not recognise aa lawa tho atrocioua acta of the aham legis- lature forced upon them by the Missouri invader*, nor will they recognize aa law officers tbo appointees of that ruffianly body. Governor Shannon is said now to be dispo- sed to sido with the people of Kanzts, and will probtbly take up hia rcaidcnce at Law- rence.— Sulem Mtrtury.

tt^We understand Iht Senate assembled oo Saturday for business. Tho members, with tho exception of four, all answered to ibeir names. After • short time spent in organising, tho Kansas Slave Bill was taken from the table preparatory to its pataage.— Tbo debate was opened in • spirited man-

ner, and so continued until a late hour, when tho bill was rtjttltd by tbe following vote:

Ytat—Akrrman, Andrews, Bean, Blake, Cressey of Fa., Cressey of N. C, Davis, Dunn, Everett, McNeally, Smith, Stevens and Tarbox,—13.

Nays — Anderson, Bosrdmsn, Butler, Clark, Curtis, Knowlton of Wis., Knowlton of Mass., Lampher, Littlefield, Lunt, Nel- son, Odell, Plumb, Tharston, Trafiun and Warren,-10.

We are much pleased with the action of our young men in referenco to their selec- tion of questions. In our opinion it is much better to discus such as are of prao- ioal benefit, than to have those that will ooly learn the speaker to talk. And espe- cially, ia discussing polities, is it necessary to be well supplied with batkbmt.

xne great and inii>ortant events—Religious,Po- litical, and Military—now agitating the nation* of the Old World, give to these Publications an in- terest and value they never before possessed.-— They occupy a middle ground between the hasti- ly written news it:ins, crude speculations, and living niinoisof the newspaper, and the ponderous Touie of the historian, written long alter the liv- ing interest ill the facts he records shall have passed away. The progress of the War in the East oc-

cupies a large apace in their pages. Every aiove uient is closely criticised, whetlier of friend or of loe, and all short-comings feailcssly pointed out. The letters from the Crimen and Iroin the llnl- tic in Blackwood's Magazine, from two of its most popular contributors, give a more intelligible aud reliable account of the movements of llie great belligerents than can elsewhere be found.

These Periodical* ubly represent the three great political parties of Great Britain —Whig, Tory, and Radical,—but politics form* only one feature of their character. As Organs of the most profound writers on Science, Literature, Morality, aud Religion, they stand, as (hey ever ha.e stood, unrivalled in the world of letters, being consider- ed indispensable to the scholar and the profess- ional man, while to the intelligent reader of every class they furnish u more correct and satisfactory record of the current literature of the day, through- out the world, thancau be possibly obtained froui any other source.

EARLY COPIES. The receipt ol Advance Sheets from the

British publishers gives additional value to these Reprints, especially during the present exciting state of European atlairs, inasmuch ns they can now be placed in the hands of subscribers about aa soon as the origiual edition*.
