Representative in Congress from the Cd District
in New Hampshire, in reply to one requesting
his sentiments on the cngrossing question Of
Slavery
WAsmNGroS, Feb 2, 1s4s.
HoxoRrp siR;--I, gives me great pleasure
to learn that my argument against the claims Of
the heirs Of Pnclieco gives satisfaction to the
friends Of freedom IN the third Congressional
district in New HAMPSHIRE. il was simply an
argument upon the legal question raised IN that
case. feel uuic certain that the ground taken
that slace is not property under he last clause
of he mn article Of ne 1mendmenis Of The
Constitution Is the only true ground, and that II
is entirely improbable, Notwithstanding the
House decided, bya small majority, against my
think i clearly the most bold and arrogant,
yea Aanrant, case that ever has occurred since
The adoption of the Constitution. Il assuming
on the part Of the slave power Of the country a
new position. For 80 years after the Consiitu-
ton wa adopted, no such claim was ever made
upon Congress. No such claim has ever been
recognized and paid when contested, until this
claim of the heirs of Pacheco, for the negro man
Lewis. Ills j. the first and leading case-and
now and hencctorth such claims will rush in up
on Congress from all parts Of the slaveholding
region Of our country, TO make the Treasury o.
the Union chargcable for the payment Of slaves

pect its passage this session. We scarcely re-
greet ii, for II any thing is passed, il will fall far
short of the thorough reform needed, aud retard
its final accomplishment.
A new Congress, coming fresh from the peO-
pie. will be imbued somewhat, we hope, with
their feelings, and be ready to adopt, with a
bold and strong hand, the measures which they
demand. The country press win also have time
to effect concert Of action among themselves, and
concentrate public opinion in hostility to the in
equitable, because partial, legislation of Congress
in favor Of a portion of the public press, at tho
expense Of another portion.

TEMPERANCE AND STRESGTH.-The recent
prize-feht furnishes one curious lesson, which
we commend to all whom il may concern. In
training for the fight, we are told both the com
batants adopted our system of total abstinence
from rum. One il a gTog-seller, and both have
probably often asked their visitors and friends
to take little, just TO strengthen them but
when they set about course OF training, to Sc
cure the most perfect development of strength
in themselves, not drop will they touch. They
go the whole figure in total abstinence. They
believe not a word of it, when people say little
won't hurt.-Ne,o York Organ.
ISrENpERAScE AND WEAKNEss.--Thc ex-
cellent DIR. Sewall remarks, in his Pathology Of
Drunkenness, that respiration in the inebriate is
generally oppressed and laborious, especially af.
ter eating, or violent exercise; aud he is teased
with cough, attended by copious expectoration
in the morning and especially after e. of in
toxiealon; and these symptoms go on increas-
ing, and unless arrested in their progress, often
terminate in fatal bronchitis and consumption.

EARLY ABoLITIoNisM.-J. Il. Lowell, in a
review Of Mr. Calhouns Manifesto, in the Anti
Slavery Standard, remarks that there never was
so much or so sincere an ani-slavery feeling in
the Northern States, rs at the period i'm edi-
aiely following the Revolution. He instances
the emancipation movements of that time, and
among other things states that there is now in
existence an unpublished letter from General
Washington 10 Joseph Whipple, Collector at
Portsmouth, n. H., asking bis aid in the recap.
ture Of an escaped woman-a favorite slave Of
Mrs Washington. The General asks the Col
lec,or's opinion rs 10 whether an attempt to send
her back 20 Virginia would be likely TO excite a
popular commotion and lead to violent resistance
The rough draft Of MIR Whippes answer, in hi.
own handwriting, displays a sufficient lack Of
zeal in The undertaking. He thinks the woman
could not be peaceabiy kidnapped, and con.
cinues oy hoping that slavery viii soon De Goo
ished throughout the country. Whether any
further correspondence took place does not mp
pear, but the woman mover molesied, and
aied few years ago in New Hampshire.

A SOUTHERN FASATIc.'--We make the
following extract from The Democrat" pub

such sentiments, uttered in the heart of great
slayc-holding State, should put TO shame North.
ern dough-faccsl Speaking of the defeat of Mr.
Colts resolution against the slave trade in the
District of Columbia, the Democrat says:
although the jockeying Of Southern pisrep-
rsseniers in Congress, and the cringing of North

slave trade in the District has been lost; and TO
the shame of our Republic, we have refused to
elevate Washington to the level Of Tunis and
