rejoicing that the Presidents and Professors OF many

go into The City Treasury. Thus the citizens would
ALWAYS be sure of riding for twenty-five cents, and
handsome profit would be realized TO assist in
paving the exp penses of City Government. This is
onr plan of Cab reform. AT all events, we recon-

Execution of Dave-Below, our rea-
ders will find an extract from the Lau-
rensville Herald, giving an account of
the last moments of DAVE, which every
body will do we'll to read and ponder.
The facts there developed, though of
common notoriety, are yet alarming,
and we'll calculated to excite our fears,
if for no other reason than because we
are fatally Indifferent in regard to such
conduct. We pretend to be very much
excited at the mention of a5ozitiouisn !;
but if the conduct of those who are in
the habit of traficking with, and espe-
cially selling liquor, to our slaves, were
considered in its consequences, we would
find it to be infinitely more injurious to
us-and especially to an institution, in
the preservation of which we are all
equally interested-than any thing we
have to fear from the obolitionists. In
the one case, our very Indifference car
rles within itself the elements of destruc-
ton; in the other, our watchfulness
will always be sufficient arm of de-
fence. With this, as with most of the
crimes which the darkness Of midnight
affords opportunities for perpetrating, it
is much to be regretted that the process
of law is rendered almost entirely insult:
hcient, by the case, as we'll as by the
countenance such characters receive
from those who are above such conduct.
AS severe as is the penalty of the law
upon white men for trading with me-
groes, 1t is not half severe enough, could
it be even pushed to its legal results

Foreign Nea0s.-In another part of
this weeks paper will be found extracts
of news by the Great Western, which,
although Of no great importance, still is
favorable. Cotton had advanced I'D,
and the market was firm. The Tariff
bill is still hung up in suspense. Parlia-
ment had been adjourned for the holi-
days, and consequently there was no
discussion upon the Oregon question !;
and the Corn Law, it was said, would
come up Immediately after the meeting
of Parliament.
The speeches of Messrs. CALHOUN
and HAYWOOD had just been received,
and the happiest results may be calcula-
ted on from their circulation in England.
