but interiors. If we were interiors, then
indeed would our condition be hopeless,
then might we with propriety go to the
North for our models and every thing else
but we knop that in no point of view
whatever; are we inferior to the North.
Why is it that our people act so very in.
consistent with their interests by educa-
ting their children abroad, when they can
be better educated at home? We have
reason to believe that those persons edu.
Gated abroad are more intelligent, refined,
more highly cultivated, or better suited to
the callings and professions of life than
those who have graduated at Colleges Of
our own. Perhaps those men who are
eminent in their professions, and have
arisen to the proudest cminence, and oc
cupy exalted and honorable positions i'll
our midst, who were educated or gradua.
ted at Northern Colleges, would have ari.
sen still higher, and attained the very acme
of fame; if they had been educated en-
tirely at home. There is no certain rule
by which we may determine this, but the
inference is just, that they might enjoy as
many advantages in the cne case, as in
the other: 1t is idle talk now to say that
Northern education is preferable to a
Southern; If people must send abroad,
why let them send to Europe: That
would be something worth talking about

fully does he remove the body into the
hut, and assisting the old squaw, and sup
plying her with food, he hastcns away
from the spot.
The daylight was just breaking when
the Indian again made his appearance,
accompanied by eight others. Again the
body was inspected, the cid squaw was
questioned, and the appearance Of the
murderer so impressed on their minds that
one and all were satisfied, they could re-
coguize him without trouble. His foot.
steps, however, were examined and noted.
The Indian was consigned to his lowly
bed, the old squaw removed, and to all
appearances the affair was ended.
Not so, however, was the case. The
Indian who first discovered the deed had
silently followed the trail to where the
survey had been made, and then to the
nearest settlement, where, in his broken
English, he managed to gain information
that the head OF the party had gone to N.
York, and that he had a rifle along with
him purchased from an Indian, and that
his name was shombcrg: With this in
formation, he rejoined the tribe.
In less than week after, various par
ties of strange Indians were noticed in
the streets Of New York. Who they
werc, whence they came, or why, none
could tell. Their faces were painted
black-all were fully armed, and might
be seen day by day prowling, now in de-
tached parties, now singly through every
street:
At length, shomberg was seen, instant:
ly recognized and followed: His resi-.
dcnce discovered, day by day, and night
by night, a rcd skin might be seen either
watching his residence, or dogging his
steps: Twice did they attempt his life
but were foiled each time: Shomberg
however, saw enough to satisfy him that
he was doomed" For several days he
did not stir out; but still from his win
dow he could always see an Indian some
where.
His life grew burthensomc. He re
solved to leave the country but insteat
of sailing from New York, he was oblig
ed to 60 to Montreal. Taking his pre-
caution to find a party bound to the same
place, he set sail for Lake Champlain:
Such, however, was not the case. Th'
foes were on his track their light canoe
were in pursuit; but still he gained OF
them. But Indian instinct was not a
fault at Albany; they heard of him, ant
, where he had gone.
Some days after he had been in Mon
treal, he was seated in the cabin of tn
, vessel about to sail for England, when tn
captain told him some Indians were inqui
ing for him and wanting to see him.
"Tell them, for Gods sake, that I al
{ not here" was his reply, and from tha
f moment he left the cabin.

by reducing the wages of the operatives.
Many of the workmen and women oppos.

less, and "the security" we enjoy under

almost if not entirely equivalent to "Punic

that the Union is in their hands as a sa-
cred legacy--but this Union; what is it
but the Union of the weak with the strong,
of the oppressed with the oppressor, Of
the long suffering with the presumptious

great hue and cry against the Southern
Rights Republican party, as being for dis
union-but let them remember that "this
cry of Union is the masked battery, from
behind which the Constitution and the
rights of the South are to be assailed,"
We belong, as heretofore, to the South.

more than victory:
As such, do we look upon the late de.

principles Of the Southern Rights party
in some slight degree triumphcd in the
late State Convention, despite the large
majority of the so called Union men
These principles are yet dear to every
Southern Rights man: They are in hi:
