the truth of tho oft rep a,ed assertion, that
the condition of our slaves is far better than

lately occurred, which we think worthy of
notice. It's the voluntary return to slavery
OF negro man, the property of gentleman

ed election from Louisa. Other of the Whius

and being aided by the whole Loco-foco

ALiENs.-The doctrine of Mr.. Wright, in
tho United States Senate, that there is moth
ing in the Constitution to prevent aliens from
taking part in our elections, is deserving of
serious consideration. Illinois, we believe.
is the only State in which this doctrine has
yet been carried out, and it is to it's practical
operation that Mr.. Van Buren, is indebted for
the five votes Of that State. Should such
doctrines prevail in other States, we should
soon become, in effect, a European Province.
