bate on the 2lst rule, Mr.. Deile,, a wing from Al.
ALBANIA. had a few passes with the Great Incen.
dlary--thc Bargain and Intrigue" Ex.Presidens
Adams--on the subject Of abolitionism. We
make the following extract OF the closing Of tho
skirmish from the American of Saturday lasr:
"Mr. Dellet closed with Mr.. Adams, quoting
from him some remarks in favor Of the abolition
of slavery, concluding with a prayer. that Gin
Gods good time it would come, and let it come"
Mr.. Dellet asked Mr.. Adams if he, understood
him. r.. ..r.. -.
Mr. A. nodded assent, and said with great ear.
nestness, L ii come.
Mr.. Dellet--Yes. lot it come: No matter what
the consequences, let ii come. said the gentleman.
lsst-ii come, though women and children should
be SHIN
(Mr. Adams, in his seat) -"Five hundred mil.
lions. Yes, let it Gomez -.'
The remark of Mr.. A. here excited consider.
able sensation in the House, and Mr.. Dellet pro.
ceeded. am, said he, one Of the few who in
1874 believed that il was better TO have Civilian
elected to tho highest Office in the gift Of the PEG.
pic than military Chieftain. Ii was thon vo-
ted for tho gentleman from Massachusetts. I
cannot ask my country TO forgive mo for this Of.
fence. but do ask pardon of my God for IT,.
There re thousands who should, like Mr.. Del.
let, ask pardon for the injuries done the institu-
tons of the country by promoting the political in
terests of this disturber Of the ha rmony and bro
therly ties which should exist among each portion
OF the people of this great nation. But if Mr., Del
lot, feels his conscience rebukng him for his in
diridudl act in voting for the member from Mas.
sachusetis for President of the United States and
feels himself bound TO ask pardon ofhis maker for
ms offence, how can he reconcile it to himself to
support Mr.. Clay. the individual who bv .'ba ,gnn
and corruption" was the principal means Of in
fllcting upon the country as President, a man who
m ctr Mt fhe -. a.,
gaged in flashing about the destructive torch of
MISUNDERSTANDING with the rights guaran-
,ced to our Southern friends by the Constitution
of our country? For ourselves, cannot see
how the gentleman car imp'ore the forgivness OF
his maker for merely giving his individual vote for
Person--( which vote only helped to send him
minority candidate to tho House of Representa-.
tves.) without having some compunction for sup.
porting the man who gave them the votes ofS,ates,
and thereby elected him to the Presidency.
''Show me your company and III tell yon who
you are." is good politics US in social life.
Mr.. Dellet cannot separate the brothers in cor.
ruption, Adams and Clay, and il no is sincere in
impIoring pardon for voting for tho former, he
must give up the latter. ...

Bah!-We SOC that petitions are still pou ring
in upon the Legislature, from the ladies. pray
ing that the crime of icentuousness be abolished!
Most wise ladies! IL you will remember the old
Spanish saying-let every one sweep before his
own door and the street will be clean-how much
time and trouble and vexaton would you avoid!
IL any legislature can abolish licentiousness, we
assure you it is ours. No; laws and petitions arc
as futile to effect this purpose as words Of man
to still tho ocean. Lay the fires of passion that
are lighted by the present system Of fashionable
life, and teach women other aspirations than tho
ambition to shine at whatever cost, and your work
is half accomplished. Female beauty is like an
icc-siatue--the moment it feels the warmth of tic
sun that makes it dazzle, it begins to mingls with
the base enrth. Splendor is the bolt that lays
waste all its loyeliness.
