MANY Of the leading democratic journals
OF mississippi are recommending, that the con.
sti'ution vt that State be so amended as TO pro.
hib,t hereafter the grant Of any charters fol

We were never bitten by q bank, and are
not, therefore, bank-mad but we wish Mis-.
sissippi would try this scheme. Her worth.
less rags arc a great scandal, and through them
too many poor people are shamefully cheated.
Hurra for the "Hards" OF the question.-Pitts

Now we agree with the Ariel about this mat.
ter, though he is Locofoco and we are Wing.
We do not think the Mississippians can be
trusted with banks. They would only be

were before, when they had bank, (for they
have but one i'm the State now, and that one
with a mere ncighborhood circulation.) But
# they could turn reputation. locofocoism and
other rascslities out Of the State, the paper Of
their own banks might be as good as that OF
those other States, whose currency the Mis.is-
sippians are obliged to use at present. The
fact is they have been trying this scheme" OF
hard money there for several years, and have
arrived at this result. They have no paper OF
their own, mr. specie, and have To use Jus,
what other people choose TO s.ad them.

NUMBER OF ROMAN SL,AyFs-G;

NUMBER OF ROMAN SLAVES-Gib-
bon estimates the number of slaves through
out the empire, in its latter days, at a number
equal to that of the freemen; in other words
one-half of the whole inhabitants were i'm a
state OF .ervitude, and as there were 10000
600 souls under Roman sway, 5000, 200
were in that degraded condition. There is
reason to believe that the number of the slaves
was still greater than this estimate, and at
least double that of the freemen; for it is
known by an authentic enumeration, that i'm
the time of the Emperor Claudius, the number
OF citizens in the empire was only 6,945, OOC
men, with their families, might amount to
1000, 600 of souls; and the total number OF
freemen was about double that of the citizens,
In one family alone, in the time of Pliny
there were ZIG slaves.

TIL SONG OF STEAM.
BY C. W. CUTTER.
Harness me down with your iron bands.
BE sure of your curb and rein;
For l scorn the power of your puny hands
AS the tempest scorns a chain.
How | laughed as lay concealed from sight
For many a countless hour,
At the childish boast of human might,
And the pride of human power.
When | saw an army upon the land,
A navy upon the seas,
Creeping along a snail like band,
Or waiting the wayward breeze
When | marked the peasant family reel
With the toll which he daily bore,
As he feebly turned the tardy wheel,
Or tugged at the weary oar;
When ! measured the painting, courser' 8 speed
The flight of the courier dove,
As they bore the law a king decreed,
Or the lines of impatient love;
could not but think how the world would feel
AS these were outstripp'd afar,
when should be bound to the rushing keel
Or chained to the flying Car.
la! Ina! ma they found me at last,
They invited me forth at length,
II rushed to my throne with thunder blast
Ana laughed IN my iron strength.
oh! then we saw a wondrous change
On the earth and the ocean wide,
Where now my fiery armies range,
Nor wait for wind or tide.
Hurrah! hurrah the waters DER,
The mountains steep decline,
Ilme-space-have yielded to my power
The world the world is mine!

Or those where his beams decline
The giant streams of the ~queenly West,
Or the orient floods divine.

And the monsters of the briny deep
