HOW TO DO ia GOOD EXAMPLE.

WALNUT Hill, Ill, July 25, 1850.
DEAR SIR herein transmit SIG, for the pur-
pose Of continuing my own paper, and that Of
some others, spd adding few new subscribers,
according to your terms. Ii is astonishing 59z
much might be done for such q Daper as yours.
ny the cmGnesl envrp Nne part vi lys irlenus-
Literally, in less than fifteen minutes, I secured
the four new subscribers sent you from our town.
The same success would not always accompany a
mans efforts, but something can be done. This,
you will observe, is in the celebrated darkness Of
Egypt Southern Illnois--even 30 dark to be
within John A. McClernands district. Blythe
by, his late speech belied even his district, and
was unworthy an American, representing free
constituency. The mass Of his constituency have
been forced to leave the land Of their nativity by
the pressure Of slavery, and owe all their present
liberty and prosperity to the operation of the JEFF
fersonian Ordinance. Some of us whose ances-
tors manumitted their slaves, left our sunny
homes in the South because of our opposition to
this monster evil, and took our station in North
ern land and climate, that we might breathe an
atmosphere of liherty-are made so and kept so
by this celebrated Ordinance, which our Repre-
sentative now denounoes as the Pandora Box of
evil to this Union Mol Even what is called
Egyptian darkness in illinois, is misrepresented
by McClernand and if he comes before the peo-
pie his vote will be thinned, at least In our cor
ner Of his district.

Yet this will admit, that | am opposed TO the

Of a Southern feature assumed by that paper, to
give the true state Of affairs as they exist, and
If that paper had taken fair unsectional Dem
ocratic stand, things would not have been as they

embttered to an extent that never would have

In series of popular colloquial lectures, deliv-

within duodecimo Of less than four hundred
pages we cannot expect an elaborate and COM

writer Of note prefxed to the volume, who says
the lectures |" are scarcely more than an enumers-
ton of those great men that have originated and
treated on this important science, with short ac-
count of their various opinions, and frequent
compilations from their works" He certainly
makes use of the writings of these great men, but

TRKArisE on THE UscossrIruTIoNALIrY OF AMERICAN
Slavery BY Joel Tiffany, Esq Published b, J.
Cayn, Cleveland, Ohio.
This author is lawyer Of character and expe-
rience, possessing unusual powers Of condensation
The work oomprehends a pretty full examination
| of the powers and duties Of the Federal Govern
ment in relation to slavery. The whole subject ID
admirably arranged, and treated with unusual per-
spicuity, and is compressed in l44 pages duodeci'
mo, beginning with the doctrines entertained by
those who founded our Government. The author
shows clearly their intention to arrange its pow
ers on the side of freedom, separated from every
obligation to sustain or uphold the institution Of
slavery. His quotations from Washington, JEFF
ferson, Sherman, Martin, and others, are conclu
sive proofs that their objects were the support
and maintenance of human rights, and opposition
| to oppression. 1t is work Of merit, and should
be read by every person who desires an accurate

Charles Sumner has received the nomination
of the Free Soil party Of Boston, as a candidate
for the seat in Congress lately vacated by the ell
ovation Of R. C. Winthrop to the Senate. A
better nomination could not well have been
made, but the Traveller intimates doubt whether
Mr. Sumner will consent to run. lie had not
accepted the nomination yesterday. His Wing
opponent will be Mr. Elliott, the former mayor Of
Boston, who has signi6ed his acceptance Of the
Wing nomination.
II will be remembered that Mr.. Sumner ran
against Mr.. Winthrop In is4s, and was defeated
by small majority II the Boston people have
properly repented Of the choice they then made,

a strong effort was made by Gen. Cass, or his
friends at Washington, to induce the Democrats
In the Ohio Constitutional Convention TO pass
resolutions In favor Of Clay's Compromise, simi.
lar to those adopted by majority Of the Michi-
gan delegates. A message was returned that
the thing was impossible--that the Ohio Democ-
racy WAS In favor Of the admission Of New Mex
leo and California ne States. Accordingly, when
the late Convention assembled, q stringent reso-
luton to that effect was passed with entire unan-
unity.
