All attention is taken away from commercial and
miscellaneous subjects, to be settled entirely on poll
lies These papers, from day TO day, are only dlcu-
cuous limitations of each other-filled with palry re-
turns Of petty elections when the grand result Is fully
known--or OVERLOOKING with bombast, fustan and
nonsense, which they call patriotism and love Of
country. In this condition, the Wall street press -
rapidly going the breakers. The Courier and jour
nal are the only papers that have news boat esta-
bshment capable Of entering into competition with
our Teazer and Celeste. That may sustain those two
a little while But the Express and other Wall street
prints, have no boat Of any force The Association
has been forced to give up their large boat for want
of funds to pay the expense They use only little
cockboat that never goes below the Quarantine
Hence the subscribers of the Express are rapidly fall
ling off Tho Herald gets one half Of them, and the
Courier the other half The fact is, the Courier and
Journal the only remaining prints IN Wall street
that pretend TO be we'll conducted. The revulsisn
among the Wall street prints is rapidly going on

for the restraint of millions held in bondage.-

Mr.. Jefferson asks: "Can the liberties Of a

Judge Washington, in a speech before the
Colonization Society, expressed The decided

gradual abolition Of slavery, and wipe from
our political institutions the only blot which
stains them"
General Harper has spoken OF slavery as "
great moral and political evil, OF Increasing
viruence and extent, from which much mis-
chief is now felt, and very great calamity IN
future is justly apprehcndcd."
General Mercer remarks: 1.-The hope OF
the gradual and utter abolition OF slavery, IN u
manner consistent with the rights, interests,
and happiness Of society, ought never 10 be

William CASTOR, OF North Carolina, now on

Another Scene from Life.-We

scene last wee6 which ought TO have touch
ed the heart of every dealer Of ardent
spirits but we have one now fresh from
the annals of wretchedness, which we
wished, as we looked upon it, that all who
meddle with the poison might behold.
Yesterday morning, alter the violent
snow storm had subsidized, a man of about
twenty-five, was found in Daniel street, on
one OF the step stones, without an outside
garment or hat. He bure evident marks
OF exposure 10 the storm, exhibited long
deep cash in his forehead, probably pro-
duced by fall against the building, and
when discovered, was apparently in mn
expiring state.
He was not an inhabilant Of Portsmouth
buta visitor from an adjoining town. He
had probably spent his evening in one oi
those miserabl haunts Of Iniemperance
which, below or above ground, are nui-
sance 10 our town.
We learnt his name, but il is OF less con
sequence 10 the public than the name the
person who sold him This deadly draught.
The time has come when the enquiry
should al once be made-"Vho made that
man drunk?"-and The finger OF public
scorn and delesallon should be pointed at
him as the enemy OF humanity. And let
not him escape who deals in poison by the
hogshead-Il is only disposing of misery By
the nhoIesale-and by an equitable rule u
justice which will! not pass unheeded
