Mr.. Winthrop and the Free soilers.

In palliation of the course pursued by the
professed free soilers in the House ofRep-
resentatives, by which "chivalrous" over
bearing loco Of Georgia was elected Speaker
in the place of Winthrop of Massachusetts,,
il has been pretended that the Committees
were not satisfactorily constituted two years
ago.
The National Era, published at Washing
ION by DR.. Baily is far the most talented free
soil paper in the country, and the most con-
sistent and jealous advocate of Anti Slavery
principles. DIR. Baly says he always admi-
red Mr.. Winthrop as SPEAKER, and he regrets
that the free soil members could not have vo-
ted for him. The Era says!
"The committee on territories, as organi-
zed by Mr.. Winthrop in the commencement
of the last Congress, consisted ofthree slave
holders and six non-slaveholders. OF the
letter Smith, Gott, and Rockwell were un-
derstood at that time to be thorough anti
slavery men; Cranston, Evans and Thomp-
son, were Wilmot Proviso men, but not so
active as the former were supposed to be-
For one, we say frankly that this committee
appeared to be fairly constituted.
This admission deprives the free solers Of
the only plausible excuse offered for opposing
Mr.. Winthrop. 1t was on the constitution of
this committee that Mr.. Giddings, in a de-
bate few days since, based his chief oppo-
sltion TO Mr.. Winthrop. But the pretence
that Mr.. W., consistent proviso man of
stern integrity, would so form the commit
tees as to suppress his own principles and
those of his constituents, is too weak to re-
uuire refutaton

Violent Ou trage aad Probable Murder.

We learn from reliable source thatan ex-
animation has been going on at Albion du-
ring the last week, of Mr.. Cowder, residing
in the town of Yates, about Is miles north
of that village, for the supposed murder of
his wife. The facts brought to light on the
testimony of the neighbors and daughter of
the prisoner, show degree of depravity-
Of relentless, fend-lke cruelty which is
seldom our lot to record. 1t appeared in
evidence that he had been in the habit for
several weeks previous TO her death, of treat
ing his wife with the most wanted cruelty as
pastime had knocked her down on sever
al occasions with an axe helve,- would place
her repeatedly on the bed, jerk it from the
bed-stead on the floor, and after beating her
without mercy would replace the bed and re-
peat the tragedy. On one occasion il was
said, that after repeating the transaction de-
scrbed above several times, no raised and
threw her into the cellar, and kept her there
till morning. The circumstances Of her death
were, that she went to bed in usual health
and was found dead in the morning. When
the ooroner's inquest was held, DR.. Huff, of
Albion, took the stomach to his residence, in
which was detected on examination con-
siderable quantity of oxalic acid. 1t appear
cd, too, that Mr.. Lowder and purchased poi
son a short time previous TO this event, and
that a paper of white powder, admitted TO be
poison BY him, had been found in the bed
by the daughter.-[ Lockport Cour.

Oh smile on gently, aud treat as not hsrshly,
For grief spirits hath lainj
And pray that thy morrow bring nothing Of sorrow
To shadow our hopings again.
Our hearts have grown weary, pathway is dreary
With the burden Of years that are fed,
And remembrance iskseping watch DER the sleeping
The loved ones that lie with the dead.
OH deal with gently, and smile on US kindly.
And lay each sorrowing brow,
Throughout thy dominion, as soothing p inion,
As that which is fauning now.
And many blessing and gentle caressing.
Thou'lt meet as thoa'rt passing away,
And star beams shall quiver for aye the river.
