Our Elections as far as they have progressed

right as think Now Texas viii have what she
has long wanted peqcc and qaletude. You can
send Your Northern emigrants on now to occupy
the lands for which you are TO pay US ten millions
and we Will take the money and make Internal
improvements, establish Free Public Schools, &c
trust both the General Government and Texas
kave made good bargain.
The weather continues fine for agricultural pur.

To 'c Editor q The Tribune:
There is much about this Scandinavian race of
men, which TO one either contemplating them from
3 distant point Of view, or living and working
among them is full OF interest and productive Of
thought. Their chief characteristic SIS it seems
to NE, is calm, patient enduring energy, whish
is wholly unlike the fiery unsteady enthusiasm Of
the south, This latter develops itself in holy
wars and tanatical crusades, IN burning poetry
and abortlve revolutions. and resembles the Goals
OF forge, winch at one moment glow with &
startling brllhanco and leNor and at the next are
a heap0i dead, useless cindorS
Within the last fifty years much has been done
towards developing the Morse character in q more
peaceful and useful direction. The polnr nations
had been engaged in long series OF wars, which
extended almost uuiuteuup,edy from the days Of
the Vikings to the beginning Of the present cen.
fury. AS pagan, papal, and protestant they had
been actuated by the same warlike and war low
ing spirit, which was only different by circum.
stances, in the ease Of Rolf in France, Knuy in
England and Gassayus Adolphus in Germany.
BY conquest they had acquired vast territory
which once stretchGd from the city of the Cars

THE FAIR.

The Rutland County Agricultural
Fair comes off on Wednesday and
Thursday Of next week,
Every body's going for good time.
The cars are TO run over and back
from Rutland three times each day
fare only 80 cents (see notice. over
and back. The magnificent ride over
Gookin's Falls alone is worth all that.
Farmers, are You ready with your
town-ieams--your fat ca,,le--your fine
wooded sheep--your nice maple sugar
butter and cheese-your hes, pigs and
poultry and the esculents and fruits Of
your gardens; if you are, say so, and
produce them on the day Of exhibition.
In this connection, We would say that
the gardener has this year fine chance
to show his skill in ayerting the evils
consequent upon a wet June and bad
season.
The ladies too, it is to be hoped, will
gladden. the fair with their presence and
add to its attraction by the exhibition
Q! their handiwork.

LOUIS PHiLLIrE's FORTUNE.
There was at one time AN attempt OF,
the part Of several European newspa.
pers to create public sympathy for the
poor ex-king OF France, on account OF
the extreme poverty and dcsiitution TO
which the migrate republicans had re.
duced him.
All, however, who were affected with
lender emotions at ia. sad idea, may
dismiss their sorrow, for il appears tina.
the old gentleman, like a prudent old
gentleman, as he always was, had taken
pretty good care, amid the shaking of
the empire and the wreck Of the throne,
to feather his mes, pretty well. His
private fortune has suffered grea, dep.
recitation within the last two years, but
still 1t yields him the snug little income
OF ssVo,0o0 year or ihercabouts.-
THIS by his will he has divided equally
among each Of his eieh, children aud
grandchildren, leaving to each the mod i.
crate competence Of 100000 n year,
upon which. small as i, is, we sincerely
trust they may be able 10 ~riggie ,hro

Of Congress. having been taken by these
ts,iies in Homeopathic doses. Wac,h-
er the operation Of all this will be any
more plra.an,, being taken in hi, way

the admission Of California with her

North bot will give his hearty approval
Of the action .! Congress in this matter.
But far different will DC the feeling cx =
pressed in view uf the contamination
Of the oih.r measures which have gone
with il. The extension Of Texas and
the admission Of New Meaico and Utah
withoai the aati-'iarery proriso, will be
so',ened TO some by the firm belief ,ha,
slavery canno, find It's way there
while other. less confident in this, will
regard il rs still farther surrender to
the South. But, however this may he.
the wings OF Vernon, have nothing to
reproach themselves with in relation to
the entire matter. Our delegation have
stood manfully and nobly in defence Of
Northern righ,' sand a generous cons,i,-
uency will give them II just approval.
In noticing the passage Of the 'Fu-
give Slave bilI' we ha dly know Ian.

appreciation Of all right minded northern
men--and the detestation in which they
will hold the traitors Of the Nor'h who
have betrayed them. OF this number
were 70 loco. aud 3 wings none, thank
heaven, from the Green Mountain

In speaking Of the passage Of this
bill, the Boston Atlas expresses our
views SO nearly tina, we append it TO
this.
The Atlas says:--
The Fugitive Slave Bill a mea-
sure deservedIy offensive and odious to

House Of Representatives, and will be.
come Il law. If it receives the signature
OF the President. Words are almost in.

and disappointment at this result. In

of the free Northern States have large
