Prospects are daVk In Kansas for a large
agricultural yield next fall. There has been
protracted drought In the Territory, which has
destroyed nearly all the grain sown in the fall
and blighted early .spring vegetables. Such
season has never before been known. The gen
eral news from the Territory is quite meagre.
The seventeen year locusts are now per
forating the ground in the vicinity of Newark,

jj^** Of the Tennessee platform Itself (Which
is now proposed as the basis of reconcilia

Demqcrntlo paper, says: “It is of that character
of platform against w-hlch all parties, North and
South, Douglas and anti-Douglas, are emphati
cally pledged. It is ambiguous, equivocal and
uncertain, and every prominent man of either
section at Charleston declared against any such
platform.” . ^ ^
Thurlow Weed’s paper, the organ of Mr.
Seward, seems, gratified, in Its disappointment,
by the reflection that Mr: Lincoln is, after all
' ns violent a radical ns its own leader. That jour
nal congratulates Uselfns follows:
“Conservatism, in Its modern and odious sense,
lins no representative in Mr. Lincoln. Ills war
against injustice, inhumanity, and slavery, is
the ‘irrepressible’ sort.”
The Chicago JPmsoiid Tribune says that Mr.
Lincoln “eats with the appetite that goes with
lurgc brain,” and never swears', except once in
while to say d—n ! j

A New Southern Book.
The Clark. Gauntlet: A tnle of plantation Life in
South Carolina. By Mrs. IIhniiy R. Scnoob-
ORAFT.
The advance sheets of a volume hearing this
title have beeu laid before us by Mr. James E.
Ileum, of this city, who is agent for the work.—
Tho character of the authoress—a native of South
Carolina—as well as tho Interesting nature of the
subject, and tho admirable manner in which It Is
treated, must commend It to the favorable con
sideration of Southern readers.
Tho Washington States, speaking of this work,
truly remarks that “there Is no field of romantic
literature more gorgeous in* its scenery, more
jcli in its material, or more abundant In its va
riety, versatility and attractiveness of character,
than the rural districts of tho sunny South,
the combined interest of the uvastor and
slave move symmetrically on in a blended har
mony of action, tho wild lineaments of the Afrlc-
io contrasting with his civilized associations.
such a field are to bo found a mine of surpass
ing wealth of Ineldouti which needs hut tho dra
matic genius to mould Into the most fascinating
novels. Tills genius Mrs. SCHOOLCRAFT dis
plays to un eminent degree. The vividness of
Ideality—tho strength of narrative—the keenness
appreciation, aro all exemplified tu a manner
ortliy the pen of those who liavo become fa
mous In the domain of Scott, Bulweh and
Dickens. The “Black Gauntlet” Isa work of
power. It unites the. thrilling, tho comic, and
tha picturesque in a fascinating panorama of
plantation life in South Carolina. If it were
dramatizod, there is uo doubt of its successful
production on the stage. As it standB—aRa
clear, masterly delineation of life, manners, char
acter, flic people and the institutions of the
South, It Is one of the most truthful romances of
current literature, anil as a separate story of
rural scenes, must lie ranked with “Adam Bede”
and “The .Mill on the Floss,” which are no less
accurate and sterling.”
Iu her preface, Mrs. Schoolcraft gives some
liqe expressions of opinion upon slavery. On
slavery and the Bible, shqspeaks thus:
“South Carolinians, you kno.y, are ‘old fry
glcs,’ and consequently they do not believe, with
tho abolitionists, that Gent is a progressive be-
lug; but that throughout eternity he lias
been the same: perfect in wisdom, perlect in
justice,and perfect In love to alibis creatures.—
We cannot comprehend,'therefore, the new-light
doctrine, ‘that slavery is a sinfor It scums pre
posterous that God, through his servant Moses,
should have ordered his own peculiar people (to
whom ho delivered his commandments under the
thundering* of Sinai) to take t heir bondsmen from
among t he heathen nat ions around them,and keep
them iis an Inheritance forever, to their children s
children, if slavery was a crime against the moral
law. I have for twenty years studied the Bible
itli more intense Interest than any other book
.at, from Genesis to Revelation, I cannot find i
sentence that holds out the idea that slavery will
over cease while there are any hentheu nations
in the world—or, indeed, will over cense in this
present world at ail—for, in the dual wtndlng-up
of all things, dnguerreotyped to St. John in the
Rook of Revelation, we still And bondsmen al
luded to in very many places.
“Surely, every Bible Christian is willing to let
God Almighty he tho expositor of ids own laws.
And even when lie was made flesh, and dwelt
among us thirty-three years, lie never uttered
one single word against slavery, though Jesus
Christ rebuked all kinds of sin with the unspar
ing energy of omnipotence Itself. I might, It is
true, amuse my fancy, like our daring, dashing,
witty romancer, Mrs. Stowe, by Imagining a niil-
lcuini world, where all are born equal—where
one man is not a dribbling idiot, and nnothcr a
genius like Napoleon, Calhoun, or Webster;
where one (and lie a villain) does notroll in lux
ury and faro sumptuously every day, while the
wise and the good have scarcely the wherewithal
to keep from starvation; where Imre-honed,
ghastly want, pain, frightful deformity and de
crepitude does not number its millions, as it
does in every land we know anything about;
where that insatintc. monster, death, does not
stalk around day and night, slashing down, with
his cruelly relentless scythe, incomparable fath
ers and mothers, leaving their orphan children to
be brought up for destruction by*forelgn seltish-
noss; and the righteous, who are the only salt of
the earth, hurried away, too, tho moment their
inlluence and example seem indispensable to the
wretched and morally decaying humanity around
them. Or I might even lash my. sensibilities
Into fury that neither the Old Testament, nor the
New, neither Moses, Jesus Christ, the Apostles,

abolish slavery in any territories, tior to prohibit the
introduction of slavery therein, nor any power to i

this entire proposition to he true, as no parlor it is to

solution Is a ratification of tho whole doctrine of
squatter sovereignty. It is a refusal to deny to Terri
torial Legislatures Jurisdiction over the subject of
slavery, so as to exclude It either directly or indirect
ly therefrom by legislation. It lias nothing to do with
the doctrine of non-lntoi ventlbn on tlm subject by
Congress.
The report of the majority of the committee asserts
it to be the duty of thu Federal Government to pro

is mere black republican cant, originating with
the fanatics of that party, and which should have
beeu left, with them. We cannot exactly tell
wlmt Is meant by n “slave code,” and we doubt
If anybody else can; hut wo am sure that It Is
either «of contained in the democratic platforms,
or else It Is something which fe notpnly harm
less, hut which ought to he there, and ho heartily,
supported by tho democratic party in every
State. The late splendid and Convincing speech
es of democratic Senators in debate on this sub
ject havo thrown such a blaze of light around
the points under consideration, that wo honestly
cannot see how any democrat, alter reading
those speeches—some of which we lmve pub
lished, while others aro yet to come—can retain
a doubt, that any principle contained in the Sen
ate resolutions is not legitimately, faithfully aud
correctly draw'll from tlio ancient and well-
recognizod creed of tho nat ional democracy. We
think it has been shown us nuir to demonstra
tion as any point not absolutely mathematical
can be, that the South does not nsk for any
thing new, by any proposition which is laid
down in the Senate resolutions or in the major!
tv resolutions of the Charleston Convention,
We do not mean to repeat the argument on that
subject in this article, however, for if the speech
es wc have alludedJo and our own former arti
cles have been read, there is really no more to lie
said than has been said, nor could former rea
soning lie repeated in any clearer or more forci
ble language tlinn that in which it is already
clothed. Besides, our present purpose is not to
argue so much as it is to entreat, democrats to
reason with themselves, and to reason with an
Inward monitor which, if.it gains a victory over
self-deception, will not mortify the victim by Its
triumph.
We are convinced that the honest mass of
those who appear to believe that it is sought to
interpolate a new doctrine Into the Democratic
•reca have done so from mere prcclpltaucy; hut
.t is to be feared that now the pride of opinion
will step in to prevent them from endeavoring
to see tne truth. We exhort Democrats to east
off any such unworthy fetter upon the free ac
tion of their tnituls. Tho sacrifice of tho Demo
cratic party is too great to be made at tlio insti
gation of so low a motive/ Itr.eeme unavoid
able, unless vainglorious exhibitions of chop-
logic In unprofitable dispute can lie exchanger 1
for serious and earnest inquiry after the truth .
and the latter is what wo would therefore urge,
with all the eloquence wc can muster, upon
every individual Democrat whose actions he
desires to bo guided by hiA conscience.
It seems to us to require but little effort on
the part of any Democrat to accept the idea that
thirty-six Democratic representatives of sov
ereign Htatcs, together with a real majority of a
convention chosen to fix the platform of the
jarty, would bo able, after the. gravest delibera-
i jon and debate, to define correctly the doctrines
of the Democratic party. What authority so

cratic organization. The nominations of tho
“ constitutloiial-iinion” party have fallen dead
before the people; and as to those of the repub
lican party, uo such men os those, with such
principles aft they boast of, can ever obtain the
suffrages of this people while the democratic
party’ remaintf in a position to'rocelvo the trust
which the country is ready to renew in Its hands.
We trust, therefore, that the Senate resolutions
will be universally acquiesced in, for they can
not ho denied without denying genuine demo
cratic doctrine. On this platform let the Balti
more Convention assemble ami act in the spirit
of harmony and devotion to the democratic
cause; aud if this be done there will he given
next November the assurance of the indefinite
perpetuity of constitutional government. De
feated in this contest, the many heads of the
black-republican hydra will never any of them
agaiu exhibit harmful life, bnt will at once lan
guish ami die of their defeat. We believe we
can safely say, in less metaphorical terms, that
another defeat like that in 1850 will ruin the abo
lition party and perpetuate the democratic party
in power as long us it chooses to retalu it.

Tlio writer once strayed into tv menagerie In
the north of England, which had camped for a
day or two in a little mountain metropolis. A
largo elderly lion was making an Involuntary

and a fine family of young people. What nn in

round and round the show ip - thohundred faces
of that unfeeling crowd, as if searching for sym

Bnt no; they cannot, rend his eye of mute ap

lion, with a shaggy inane and tufted tall. Sud

throws hack his grand head, utters a tremendous
desert roar, and Kills down heavily on ills side—
dead. Dead; hut with un imperial gesture, such
as Csesnr’s when he fell.
Look at the widow! She has -been taken

a very Juno In her gait, and temper, too. But
she stops, looks Inquiringly nt the prostrate fig

upon tne denJ monarch With great abandonment.
Presently.---up comes the heir; crown prince lie

flop upon the dead body of the old liou. Up

Pueston.—In »i series o,f sketches of orators
and statesmen published in the Mobile Tribuno,
tho author, (Cnpt, B. A. Reynolds,) remarked of
Mr. Preston :
This gentleman was one of the most gifted of
tlie heroic hand of Nulllfiers, and subsequently
became one of the most distinguished statesmen
of our country, electrifying the Senate and all
ranks and classes of men, with tlmt matchless
oratory, which In Us effects was like one of those
tremendous tropical storms, which sweep away
everything before them. He spoke like a man
inspired 1 towering above tho conflict of debate,
and bathing iu the Biinhright excellence of ids
own glorious intellect. IDs speeches durlngthu
Nullification controversy eclipsed everything
since tlie time of Patrick Henry, “the forest-
born Demosthenes, who shook tho Philip of the
seas.”
In fact, William Campbell Preston was the
most eloquent mini that America lias produced
since the Revolution. No orator in the country
could stand before him for a single instant. He
towered above tho argument and tho audience In
those splendid harangues that stirred up your
blood until you were ready, like tho Athenians
of old, to take up nrms and march against tlio
Macedonian*. Oh, how g.cat, how noble, how
sublime, were the orations of Preston! Jeffer
son said that Patrick Henry spake as Homer
wrote, hut Preston was tlie y’od of Homer.
