Too Good to be Lost.

he FlckSourg Wing ot the .Ilth inst. says-"We copy the following from the Port Gibson Herald of the 3lst ult.: We do not vouch for its truth, but the story is so well told that we have to copy it:''
 HE REASON WHY JUDGE ToMpKINs DIDN'T CoHE.-The many citizens of Claiborne, who assembled on Monday last, to hear what Judge Tompkins could say in defence oi that party who look upon the formation ot "Southern Confederacy" as the great Pahacea for all social and political evils, are doubtless anxious 10 know the cause of his non-aPPearance. He has been a favorite With our citizens up 10 the period of the last somerset, and they wished 10 give him a full hearing, before dropping him entirely.
 A story which was circulated in our town on Monday evening last, fully explains the cause ot his non-arrival, and as it appears to come from reliable authority, we give it as we heard it.
 Monday, the 20th, was the day on which the Circuit Court of Bolivar county was to commence its session, and the patliotc cit izens of the county assembled on that day for the purpose of holding an Union meet ing, and forming an Union Association. During the proceedings, Judge T. arrived, and at the close, he arose with much excite. ment, and delivered very violent and de- nunciatory Southern rights or Secession speech. On the ensuing day, the Court as- sembled, the Grand Jury were empanneled, sworn, and charged by the Judge, "duly to enquire into," &c., and after retiring for an hour or two, they re-entered the Court room. Slowly and with becoming gravity they approached the desk, but 7gilant observer might have noticed sly twnkles in the eyes of the Jurors, and twitching ot the muscles of the ioremen's mouth, as he handed bill to the Clerk, who on opening 1t, announced to the Court that the Grand Jurors of Bolivar county had indicted John Anthony Quitman for High Treasonl An gry and indignant were the words in which the Judge informed them that they were travelling beyond their jurisdiction, as their lnqalsatorlal power was confined 10 the lim- its ot Bolivar county; but the foreman heard him unmoved, and with quiet smile re- piled, that himself and brother Jurors were Kery willing to pay strict obedience to the Ithev ,,'-. 'He instructions of the Court, that previous evening under consideration, and rd would very probably present a similar in dictment against himseffor an offence com mitted within the prescribed limits This was too much, and with feelings goaded al- most beyond endurance, the Judge immedi- a;eIy adjourned Court, and made tracks" for Vicksburg, announcing on the boat which bore him homeward, an intention to shake from his feet the dust of Mississippi more especially that of Bolivar county and commence new career in Shreveport, Louisiana.
 We infer from this that he has arrived at the conclusion that Mississippi is ''ioned to her idoIs," Che stars and stripes) and that he is determined for the future, 10 "Iet her alone"
 If the story is true, and the inference cor rect, his n-appearance on Monday last, is accounted for.

SCRIPTURAL,.

The "higher law" folks frequently ask whether there is any warrant in the scrip ture for the recovery of Fugitive Slaves. The epistle to Philemon in the New Testa- ment, is too we'll known to need reference, but the following from Kings TX, V. 39 and 10 may not be so general an acquaintance;
 59. And it came 10 pass, at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shemei ran away unto Achish son of Macchah king of Gath, and they told Shemei, saying, Behold thy ser wants be in Gath
 40. And Shemei arose, and saddled his ass, and went to Gath to Achish to seek his ser wants; and Shemei went, and brought his ser wants from Gath.
 Now, when the shareholders of the South saddle their asses and go to seek their fug- tivos, aduiso tho Nnrfhern Ahalitinnists not to make asses of themselves by sad ding, their backs with the responsibility of attempting to defeat the reclamation. If they do, they will certainly have their with CTS wrung by the ponderous and merciess rider of the law.-B.
