RHODE ISLAND AND Gov. HUBBARD.

We publish in the preceding columns, as
n part of the history of the times, the letter
of Governor Hubbard, of New Hampshire,
to Samuel w. King, aching as the Gov.
Of Rhode Island, in answer to a requisition
for the surrender of T. w. Dorr, the hero
of the Boundary, the Ars email and of Che
pachet, charged with the crime of treason
against the State of Rhode Island Tie con-
stItution of the United States expressly de-
clares that a person charged with treason,
felony, or other crime in one State and
fleeing to another, shall be delivered up on
the requisition of the Governor of the for
mer. This is precisely the case which ha s
occurred. Dorr is so charged with treason
and demanded, yet Gov. Hubbard not
only refuses to surrender him, but insulting
ly tells Gov. King that he is usurper, and
that Dorr is the rightful Governor of Rhode
Island
In taking this course Governor Hubbard
places himelf directly in hostility to the
very first principle of American information
al policy. 1t has long been our avow ed
rule TO intermeddle not at all with the do.
nestle concerns Of other communities, but
to regard inhexibly the Government in fact
of any counr.' as the Government Of right.
This great American principle Gov. Hub
bard repudiates, and proceeds to inquire
into and settle the claims of conflicting
Governments in Rhode Island, deciding
that the Government which is acknowledged
and obeyed over every foot of her soil is
not the Government, but that the State SOW
ereignty is embodied in one It. w. Dorr,
who has twice run away from its soil as fast
as his legs could carry him-who had been
hiding in grog-shops and by-places for
months, until taken under the protecting
wing of New Hampshire, and whose rulo
is now obeyed on single foot square of the
earth's surface If Gov. Hubbard's course
is correct, it is high time we ceased con-
demnining and ridiculing the seeming alb.
surdities of the devotees of Legitimacy and
the Divine Right in Europe! Let the
Partisans of Don Carlos, Don Miguel, and
the Duke of Bordaux take cou!agel Gov.
Hubbard advances to their rescued Tribune.

Wool! Wool!

Without giving the proceedings of the
House, when considering the wool section
of the Tariff Bill, the locofoco paper sing
out, that wool is no; adequately Protected =
Perhaps this may be so, but who is in the
fault, and to whom are we indebted for the
Protection the woo-grower does get .
While this subject was being considered in
the House, SIX WINGS moved to increase
Protection to wool, and LOCOFOCOS
and one Tylerman moved to cut it down
lower than what it actually is in the Bill, as
follows:
Tuesday July 10. The duties on ,rool
were under consideration, when the follow

Singular Circumstance.

The Selma (Ala,) Free Press relates the
following. Ten or twelve years ago the wife
of Methodist minister, named Isaac Taylor,
was missing The circumstances were as fol-
lows:-She laid down as usual with her hus-
band. Some time after she arose and went
out. and came back two or three times. At
last she took up the youngest child and kiss
ing il, laid it in Mr.. Taylors bosom, telling
him to keep it Till she returned. She then el
the house and returned no more. Dlligenl
search was made after her, but without success.
Suspicion resIed strongly on the husband, ard
bones having been found in hollow stump
near his house some years after, he was arrest
ed, brought to trial, and acquitted for want OF
evidence He was, however, generally be-
Iieve to be the murderer. He was prohibited
preaching and much prosecuted.
A short time back letter was received by
The Postmaster at Brownsville, near where the
occurrence happened, from man In Texas,
who, il appears, had been attached TO Mrs lay
lor before her marriage, and meeting her some
time afterwards, persuaded her to fly with him
to Texas. They accordingly secretly equip
ped themselves, and started, she travelling in
mems cIolhes, and arrived there, where they
lived together as man and wife She died in
that country, but exacted on her deaih-bed a
promise from her paramour that he would write
back and disclose the cause of her sudden dis
appearance.

Manure for Gardens.

We have tried variety of kinds OF manure
for garden, and these kinds in variety Of
forms, and as far our experience warrants an
assertion in favor of any particular kind, we
must give decided preference to S,camp mid,
or muck. One argument in its favor is that it
seldom produces weeds. Another, that it con-
ans much vegetable matter in a decompo-
sable state that it is easily brought 10 operate
as the food of plants. 1t also, from the slow
ness of lis decay, continues lis effect longer
than most other manures. lis cheapness also

GO TO TEEN PLAY.

Go to thy play, my little boy.
With bounding heart, while life is young
/ would not mar thy sunny joy,
Or hush the prattling of thy tongue.
To play, my child, before the day
OF evil thoughts and cares shall come:
love to see thee always gay
1t adds lustre to thy home.
Play on, while yet thy path is bright,
And thy heart loves the birds and flowers
Long may. such innocent delight
Remind me fyouth's happy hours.
And may that God who reigns above,
And watches around thy bed by night,
Protect thee daily by his love.
And make thee precious in his sight.

Evil Effects of Tight Iacing.

A late Liverpool paper.staies that coroners
inquest was held at Chard, upon the body Of a
young lady fifteen years old, who dropped dead
in the street from the bursting of blood vessel
of the lungs, caused by light acing of her stays.
Mr.. Spicer, The surgeon who opened the body,
stated that the deceased had died from the ef
rec,s of tight Iacing, and the pressure of the
bone of the stays upon her chest. He alsoeave
it as his opinion that many OF the sudden deaths
of our young females were caused by the over
Iacing Of their stays, than which there could
not be more perniciOus custom. The jury
returned n verdict in accordance with the sur
geon's evidence.

TEMPERANCE GDEs.

The drink that's in the drunkard's bowl
Is not the drink for he,
1t kills the body and his soul
How sad a sight is he;
But there's drink which God has given,
Distining in the showers of Heaven,
In measures large ana free:
Oh, that's the drink for me-
The stream that many prize so high
Is not the stream for me,
For he who drinks it still is dry,
Forever dry he'll be;
But there's a stream so cool and clear,
The thirsty traveller fingers near
Refresh'd and glad is he:
Oh, that's the drink for me!
The wine cup that Sc many prize
Is not the cup for NE,
The aching head, the bloated face,
In its sad train see;
But there's cup of water pure,
And he who drinks it may be sure
Ofhealth and length of days;
On, that's the drink for me!
Friends Of freedom swell the song,
Young and old the strain prolong,
Make the Temperance army strong,
And on to victory
Lift your banners, let them wave!
Onward march a world to save!
Who would fill drunkard's grave,
And bear his infamyt
Shrink not when the foe appears,
Spurn the towards guilty fears,
Hear the shrieks, behold the tears
OF ruined families.
Give the aching bosom rest,
Garry Joy to every breast.
Make the wretched drunkard blest
BY living soberly.
Raise the glorious wa,chword high.
Touch not, taste not, till you die!
Let the echo reach the sky,
And earth keep jubilee.
God of mercy! hear US plead,
For thy help we intercede,
See how many bosoms bleed,
And heal them speedily.
Hasten, Lord, the happy day,
When beneath the gentle ray,
Temperance all the world shall sway,
And reign triumphantly.
