that property ? We cannot understand how or

ING OF THE SLAVE TRADE.
Several of the Yiginia papers have taken
very decided gronds against the re-opening of
the slave trade. As an indication of sentiment
in that quarter we copy the following from the
Richmond Enquirer. Alluding to the late
er yon would grant the vessel protection on the
1 coast of .Africa from molestation, that I would
land the cargo on the levee in New Orleans,
and test the legality of the matter in the courts
of the United State.
You stated that "ordinarily, it would be an
unsafe rule for a public officer to act upon a
suspicion of a purpose on the part of another
to violate the laws of the country.” From
your course, it would appear that the excep
tion to this rule shold exist only as a bar to
southern enterprise, as northern vessels are
constantly employed in the transportation of
Coolies, who are persons of color held to ser
vice or labor.

Io a late controversy in the Senate between
Ur. Toombs and Mr. Preston King, of New
fork, the latter commenced n reply to Mr
Toombs as follows:
“ 1 suppose I shall not be required to furnish
understanding to the Senator from Georgia,
who has chosen to misunderstand the facts of
this case, and of course to misstate them,
will read the law.”
To which Mr. Toombs replied:
•• I will certainly relieve the Senator from
Xcw York from any obligation to furnish me
anv brains in this case, because I have seen
nothing in that Senator’s course which indica
ted that he could spare any."
Hr. Rlifkin’s Baby.
That first baby was a great institution. As
M on as he came into this “ breathing world,
the late \V. Shakspcarc has it, betook com
niaml in our bouse. Everything was subser
vient to him. He was tho balance t*heel that
reflated everything. He regulated the tem
perature, ho regulated the food, he regulated
the servants, he regulated me. For tho first
six months of that precious existence he had
ne up on an average six times a night. “Mr.
Blifkins, says my wife, “faring that light here,
do; the baby looks strangely; I’m so afraid it
will have a’ fit!” Of course the lamp was
brought, and of course the baby lay sucking
his fist like a little white bear, as ho was.—
• Mr. Illifkins,” said my wife, “ I think I feel
a draught of air; I wish you would get up and
se» if the window is not open a little, because
the baby might get sick.” Nothing was the
matter with the window, as I knew very well.
" Mr. Blifkins,” says my wife, just as I was
going to sleep again, “that lamp, as you have
placed it, shines directly in baby’s eyes—
strange that you have no more consideration.'
I arranged the light and went to bed again
Just as I was dropping to sleep again, “ Mr.
Blifkins," said my wife, “did you think to buy
that broma to-day for the baby I” “My
dear," said I. “ will you do me the injustice
to believe that I could overlook a matter so
essential to the comfort of that inestimable ?”
She apologised so very handsomely, but made
her anxiety the scape-goat. I forgave her, and
without saying a word more to her I addressed
myself to sleep. “ Mr. Blifkins,” said my
wife, shaking me, “you must not snore so, you
will wake the baby.” “Jest so; jest so,’"
said I, half asleep, thinking I was Solon Shin-
-le. “Mr. Blifkins," said my wife, “ will you
get up and hand me the warm gruel from the
iurse lamp for baby ?—the dear child! if it
wasn’t for his mother I don’t know what he
would do. How can you sleep so. Mr. Blif
kins ?" “ I suspect, my dear said I, “ that it
is because I am tired.” “Oh, it’s very well
for you men to talk about being tired,” said
my wife; “I don’t know what you would say
if'vou had to toil and drudge like a poor wo
man with a baby.” I tried to soothe her by
telling her she had no patience at all. and got
up for the posset. Having aided in answering
the baby's requirements, I stepped into bed
again, with the hope of sleeping. “Mr. Blif
kins,” said she in a louder key. I said noth
ing. “Oh, dear!” said that estimable woman,
in great apparent anguish, “how can a man,
who has arrived at the honor of u live baby of
sleep, when he don’t know that the
I dear creature*will live till morning!" I re
mained silent and, after a while, deeming that
Mrs. Illifkins had gone to sleep, I stretched my
limbs for repose. How long I slept I doi^’t
know, but I was awakened by a furious job in
the forehead by some sharp instrument. I
started up, and Mrs. Blifkins was sitting up
m the bed adjusting some portion of the baby’s
dress, sjhc had, in a state of semi-somnolcncc,
mistaken my head for the pillow, which she
customarily used for a nocturnal pincushion.
I protested against such treatment in some
what round terms, pointing to several perfora
tions iu my forehead. She told me I should
willingly bear such trifling things for the sake
of the baby. I insisted upon it that I didn’t
think- my duty as a parent to that young im
mortal required the surrender of my forehead
« a pincushion. This was one of the many
nights passed in this way. The truth was,
that baby was what every other man’s first
haby is, an autocrat—absolute and unlimited.
Such was the story of Blifkins as he related it
to us, the other day. It.is a little exaggerat-
ri picture of almost every man’s experience
Xovcl Horse Race In California—
UO MILES IN SIX HOCB8 AND FORTY-FIVE
mixites.
At the Union race course, San Francisco,
the other day, a jockey named Jack Powers
won $5,000 on a "bet that he could make J00
miles in eight consecutive hours.” The race
took place on Sunday, and it was accomplish
ed in s ix hours and forty-five minutes. He
used twenty-four horses (of the California
Mnstang breed). Tho first sixty miles were
done in two hours and thirty minutes. Pow
ers dismounted seventy-two times during the
'tee- The furthest any one horse was ridden
# a time was four miles, and the least dis-
**ace one mile. He ran at top speed the whole
distance. .
On taking a new horse, he would spring
from the saddle, run a few steps to stretch his
legs, and immediately vault into the saddle of
we animal which awaited him. .Attendants
fJoetimcs made tho rounds with him, tcndcr-
j®? h'm drink, and receiving his orders. About
130th mile a little “ shenanigan” was per
petrated for the benefit of those behind the
^frtaia. Powers up to that time had ridden
wiinoat difficulty, und sat in the saddle like a
monument. He now began to spit Hood, and
J* 1 taken with a sudden weakness in the ftb-
which seemed to communicate itself to
* the leg..
Doubters now began to bet against Powers,
which was all that was desired, and oottsidcr-
tole sum* were put up by those who considcr-
L) . l !* 8 game as over. The only blood vessel
h'chwas ruptured was a small sheep's blad-
*which was filled with the sanguinary fluid,
yt the close of tLc race Powers mounted tho
°Ws stand and publicly offered to bet 5»-
o that he would ride fifty miles in two hours;
thought of. The 4 slave trade ’ absorbed the
entire time of the Convention, to the distrac
tion of the councils of the South, and the divis
ion of her unity; crimination and recrimina
tion were indulged in by one Soutbera State
against another Southern State, until, as Mr.
Scott said, 4 the Convention had been turned
into a political debating club.’
_ “What good could possibly result from the
discussion of the African slave trade ? Sup
pose the South united, to a man, is it possible,
without disunion, ever to accomplish the re
peal of these laws that forbid the slave trade ?
—and do the advocates of the slave trade im
agine that the South would be guilty of the
folly of dissolution, to accomplish a measure
that would destroy the value of her now largest
interest ? Then why continue the discussion
of a question that can never be accomplished
in the Union, and for the accomplishment of
which the South would be unwilling to dissolve
tho Union ? Why continue to agitate a sub
ject that divides the South and distracts the
attention of her people from subjects of more
practical importance ?
“Wo can sec no good, whatever, to be ac
complished by the continued discussion of this
question. If the cotton States are determined
to revive the slave trade, and thus to destroy
the value of slavery in every non-cotton grow
ing State, it will demonstrate a selfishness of
which wc have believed Southern States inca
pable. If a dissolution of the Union is to be
followed by tho revival of the slave trade, Vir
ginia had better consider whether the South of
the Northern confederacy would not be far more
preferable for her than tbc North of a Southern
confederacy. In the Northern confederacy
Virginia would derive a large amount from the
sale of her slaves to tho South, and gain the
increased value of her lands from Northern
emigration—while in the Southern confedera
cy, with the African Slave trade revived, she
would lose two-thirds of the value of her slave
property, and derive no additional increase to
the value of her lands.”
The Petersburg South-Side Democrat thus
concludes an article on the same subject:
44 We grant that the material wealth of any
country is enhanced by the accession of labor.
We granf that the South would be richer and
strooger by the accession of slave labor from
any source, if she produced any article with
which the other productions of the world come
in competition. But the very isolation and
peculiarity of her cotton power, deprives the
ordinary rule of wealth of its force, as applied
to her. -A free accession of labor and conse
quent increase of cotton would satisfy the very
eagerness of consumption which makes her
strength so much to be respected, without ad
ding one dollar to the aggregate of her pro
duction in money value.
“The statistics of a short crop at any time
prove this. If to morrow it coaid be ascertain
ed that the crop of the present year was one
million of bales less than that of the past year
—two millions instead of three—what would
be the effect? Two bales of cotton would
bring as much as three bales were bringing.
The South would not suffer one cent; the con
sumers alone would feel the weight of the
sceptre. The wealth of the world would be
one-third less in cotton, but the producer would
lose nothing. On the contrary, he would get
the same iu money or more for his two bales,
and get everything else at the reduced price
which the world’s diminished resources would
exact
If these principles be correct, it seems to
us that aside from other aspects ot the case,
unless the cotton planters of the South have
competition from some quarter, all the world
is more interested than they are is the in
crease of the labor necessary to enlarge the
crop—and hence all the world needs the re
opening of the slave trade more than they do.”
Respectfully, &c.,

Tltc Revival.
. The religious meetings being held in our
city are still continued with nnabated interest
and zeal.
The revival is characterized by less excite
ment and more solemnity than any. we have
ever attended. Mourners still crowd the altars
or rise in the congregation, asking an interest
in the prayers of the Christian people. Rciig
ion is the principal theme of conversation in
the streets and at the corners, as well as ia
private circles at home. The great question
seems to be “what shall I do to be saved.” and
the aged father alike with his children step in
to the pool and are made whole.
From most reliable information within onr
means, we learn that sixty-three persons have
united themselves with tho Baptist church, sev
enty-four with the Presbyterian church, and
one hundred and seventy-one with the Metho
dist church. Wc are informed by the pastor
of the latter church, that more than one-half of
the large nnmber enrolled as members on his
church book are men over twenty-oneyearsof
age.
The intelligence of the converts and their
knowledge of the plan of redeeming mercy is
the remark of the Christian people. May this
good work go on and the 44 walls of Jerusalem
be built up in our midst.”—Columbus Times

Extraordinary Kail Storm—Hail
TEX INCHES LONG.
A correspondent, writing from Coleburg,
Iowa, says:
44 On Sabbath afternoon of the 23d ult., we
were visited by an extraordinary hail storm.
It seemed to originate in a south-westerly di
rection, and its course was through this place
toward the North-ea3t. It extended over a
space of five miles in breadth ; and in all prob
ability was of cousiderablo length. Many of
the hail stones were prodigious in their dimen
sion, and 1 thought likely unprecedented in
size. Some were ten inches in circumference,
while others were greater in length, being from
seven to ten inches long. Many of them
upon examination exhibited moss and various
kinds of grass seeds, which were received into
the formation of the frozen rain, and thus were
borne through the upper elements to an un
known distance. The effects produced by this
sudden and almost unparalleled shower of hail
were terrific.

after an application, that portion of the hair nearest

THE BEST SEWING MACHINE NOW IN
MARKET IS WEED’S PATENT, which is so sim
ple, that a child can operate it, and experience in the
use of Sewing Machines demonstrates that this Ma
chine is less liable to get out of order than any other
Sewing Machine now before the public.
Tho Rev.Bobert G. Williams, of Woodbury, Conn.,
says, After an examination of every other kind of
Sewing Machines, I was fully convinced yours is the
best, and an almost constant use of it for some time
has more than realized my expectations, for I know
there is no other machine that will, with so little
trouble, perform so much and so many different
kinds of work.
A planter says, I used to employ three or four
bauds in malting clothes for the rest, but since I pur
chased your Weed’s Patent Sewing Machine, one
band does the sewing for the whole plantation,
while my wife uses it for making nearly all the clothes
of the family. I feel confident the machine pays for
itself every three months.

African Einisriitioii-LcUcr from
C. A. L. LAMAR.
Messrs. Editors :—The application made
to W. F. Colcock, Esq., Collector of the port
of Charleston, S. C., by Messrs E. Lafitte &
Co., for the clearance of the ship Hichard Cob-
den, “for the coast of Africa, tor the purpose
of takiug oa board African emigrants, in ac
cordance with the United States passenger
laws, and of returning with same ‘to some
port in the United States,” was made by them
as my agent, and in accordance with my in
structions. I am alone responsible for any
outrage tbat has been committed upon public
sentiment in Charleston and elsewhere, and I
have no apologies to make. I was simply ex
ercising a legal right, aud a right upon which
I am still insisting upon; for I am now apply
ing for almost a similar clearance, the differ
ence being 44 to return to a port in the Island
of Cuba,” instead of to .a port in the United
States. I should have assumed all the obliga
tions of a principal before, but Messrs. E. La
fitte & Co. proposed to answer Mr. Cobb, and
had my authority to declare mo the principal,
and begged that I would give them the lead
off. They having changed their determination,
have thought proper to any a word or two to
Secretary Cobb.
Your objection to tho form of the applica
tion, as involving the subject in some embar-
rasmont, is groundless. Viewed as a matter
of legal right, the question is simply this:
Has any one tho right to land emigrants, bond
or free, at any port in the United States ? If
this question is answered in the affirmative,
the right of the applicant to such n clearance
is clear aud indisputable. You virtually ad
mitted the right to land some emigrants in some
of tho non-slaveholdiog States, but add that
“you were not aware of a single State where
these new comers would receive a tolerant,
much less a cordial reception.” Has northern
lublic opinion then acquired the force of law?
_t certainly appears to have attained that force
with you, for after stating the object must be
to introduce slaves, or persons held to service
or labor, or else to bring them in as other em
igrants, entitled to all the rights and privileges
of freemen, you adduce a formidable array of
iegal enactments to prove the illegality of the
first proposition; to the second, you oppose
the public opinion of the North, unsupported
by a single quotation from the law, either
State or Federal. Nay, you admit that no
laws exist by which they cau be excluded.—
The mere omission of the name of the port to
which the Cobden would return, does not con
stitute an objection tograntingof the clearance,
as it is usual to clear vessels for the various
ports of the world without naming any partic
ular port. ,
The assumption, therefore, that it was in
tended to reiurn to a port which she had no
right to enter, in preference to a port she
could lawfully enter, is not warranted by any-
g U non the face of the application, and was
condit ion to be arrived at only by an inter
pretation of the motives of the applicant, which
•rpretation you had no right to makc._ 1 he
, was, therefore, by your own admission,
itlcd to a clearance, unless indeed north-
public opinion is entitled to prevail over
i '-al rights of southern citizens. Upon
,c return of the ship to the United States,

White Slavery.
The German journeymen tailors at Cincin
nati held a largo meeting a few evenings ago,
and resolved to demqnd an increase of wages
of from 25 to 50 per cent. The Cincinnati
Commercial says:
About thirty five hundred journeymen tail
ors are emptoyed by wholesale manufacture! s
in this city, and their average wages are about
fifty-five cents per diem. Home do not receive
over thirty-five cents per diem, while few if
any receive above sixty cents. They are all
rcqnired to work ten hours a day. Those
who are able to own sewing machines, aud em
ploy from three to a half dozen girls to assist
them, make fair diem by working from sixteen
to eighteen hours out of the twenty-fonr. The
prices paid are about as follows :
For ordinary cassitner and doeskin pants
which are sold at from $2 to §5 per pair, the
the manufacturer pays the journeyman 15 to
40 cents per pair for making. It requires a
day to make a pair. For an ordinary cloth
coat, usually sold by the manufacturer at from
810 to 815. the journeyman is paid 35 to 624
cents for making. It requires a full day to
make it. For a good quilted coat 81 25 is
paid for making. A year ago the price was
82.50. It requires fully three days’ fast stitch
ing to make such. For making an ordinary
cloth, silk, satin velvet, or other vest, the tail
or is paid 15 to 50 cents, and it is a day's
work. Tailors say they know that pants
have been made within a week for 15 ceuta a
pair.
