Well, wife, this is too horrid: I cannot continue this business any longer.” .. Why, dear, what's the matter now ? O, such a dream, such a rattling of dead men's bones, and such an army of starv ed mortals, so many murderers, such cries, and shrieks, and yells, and such horrid gnashing of teeth, and glaring of eyes, and such a blazing fire, and such devils !—oh ! 1 cannot endure it. My hair stands on end, aud I am so filled with horror I can scarcely speak ! Oh, if ever I sell rum again!” My dear, you arc frightened.” <t Yes, indeed, I am; another such a night will I not pass for worlds.” tt My dear, perhaps—■” tt Oh, don't to me. I am determined not to have anything more to do with rum, any how. Don't you think Tom Wilson came to me with his throat cut from ear to ear, and such a horrible gasli, and it was so hard for him to speak, and so much blood ; and says he, t See here, Joe, the result of your rum selling !’ My blood chilled at the sight, and just then the house seemed to turn bottom up, the earth opened, and a little imp took me by the hand, saying, . Follow me.’ As I went, grim devils held out to me cups of liquid fire, saying, < Drink this.’ I dared not refuse. Every, draught set me in a rage. Serpents hissed on each side, and from above reached down their heads and whispered, i Rumsellcr /’ On and on, the imp led me, through the narrow pass All at- once he paused and said, < Are you dry ?’ i Yes,’ I replied. Then he struck a trap door with his foot, and down, down we went, a ad le gions of fiery serpents followed us, whisper ing, . Drunkard !

Under the most depressing cir cumstances,woman'sweakness becomes iniirh- it eminently to the interest of the country that both of the two great political organi zations should extend North and South. It will be an evil day, a portentous day for the republic, when this fact shall cease to exist. 1 have resisted, and I will resist the formation of sectional parties, to the extent ot my power and influence. But if, against my wishes and efforts, I must be scctional- ized, honor, patriotism, manliness, every quality that constitutes a man, require me to be careful to bo on the right side of the line.

Whatev er may be liis individual sentiments and purposes, that will be the direction of the canvass. Already we see that the editor of the New lork Tribune heralds to his read ers the nomination of General Pierce, by the Democratic convention, as follows: •<Tlie Union does not contain a bitterer or a more proscriptive pro-slavery hunker than Franklin Pierce. For years he has been loremost in stifling every aspiration for freedom among the . Democracy’ of New Hampshire. He insisted that John P. Hale should be ostracised aud crushed because he refused to vote for the annexation of Texas without a stipulation that some part of its immense unsettled teritory should be secured for free soil. The Post lias more recently seen this same Frank Pierce deprive John Atwood of'his nomination for Governor, and drive him out of the party for nothing else than expressing a repugnance to the fugitive slave law. In all New England, slavery and slave catching have had no more un scrupulous,thick-and-thin servitor than this same Frank Pierce.” Honor to General Pierce, if the Tribune truly states his position, as I believe it docs. Now, with what face can a Southern man go before a Southern audience to oppose the election of General Pierce to the Presi dency of the United States, if he shall be opposed by any man who does not stand as unequivocally upon the same ground de nounced by Mr. Grecly in the Trihune^smd described in the article from which I have read. Why, sir, you may talk aliout Bridgewater, and Lundj’s Lane, and XTra [After referring to the fact that Seward introduced a bill to abolish slavery in the District of Columbia, immediately after the passage of the Compromise measures—quot ing liis letter to the Massachusetts Abolition Convention in favor of the repeal of the Fu gitive Slave Act, and stating the fact that when a fugitive slave was rescued by a mob at Syracuse, and a motley , crowd of men, women and children, white and black, were arrested for trampling the law under foot, this same Seward repaired to the court house and volunteered to become their bail, and not only so, but << invited them to liis house and treated them to its elegant hospitalities” —after referring to these and other equally notorious facts in Seward's infamous career, Mr. Gentry proceeded :] “ W hat does all this mean ? I3 it not to encourage rebellion, insurrection, and re sistance to l:nv ? Is it not to deny that the Constitution can impose any obligation to execute the fugitive slave law ? Is it not to deny the constitutional validity of that law ? Is it not a hypocritical claim that there is a higher law which absolves him from that oath ol allegiance which lie lias taken to liis country, and which binds him to maintain the Constitution of liis country? Yet this is the doctrine he teaches, and this man, with that powerful political organization which he controls, is to be our leader—is he? Under his auspices Gen. Scott became a candidate for the Presidency; and if Gen. Scott is nominated at Baltimore, lie will owe his nomination to WilliamH. Seward; and, therefore, General Scott's nomination can not, under any circumstances, nationalize Cruz, and Cerro Gordo, aud those battles in the V* big party. As soon as the compromise vain.
