RETALIATION.

A letter, received by n large manufacturing
establishment at Newark, N. j., from one of its
agents al Memphis, mentions what they are now
talking about in Mississippi, by way Of reprisal
on the northern Abolitionists. 1t is nothing less
than to pass a law refusing the north the use oil
their courts, judges and sheriff., to collect its
debts. They say the northerners refuse to give
lup the property Of the southerners, and they will
not help them TO get theirs in return. Such q
course is amply justified BY the course of the
northern people. They have no better ~constitu.
|tional or legal right to collect debts in the south,
than the southern people have to reclaim fugitive
slaves in the north. We predict now, that if re-
~sistance to the fugitive slave bill is persisted in,
Mississippi will not be the only State which will
thus retaliate. There is a great deal said of the
soundness Of the majority of the northern peo-
pie on the slavery question, and much more is
said than is true. The fact is, that there is q
unanimous sentiment against the institution Of
slavery as a sin and a crime. We believe, how
ever, that a majority Of the northern people &C.
knowledge that they have no constitutional RICH,
Ito interfere with it, and acknowledge their legal
obligation to observe the requirements Of the fu.
lgitive slave bill. But this is not enough. They
should set their faces against the agitors as enc.
mics Of the Union they should hold themselves
in readiness TO render assistance 10 the officers
IOf the United States when in pursuit of ~fueitives
they should point out and aid in bringing 10
speedy justice all who take steps to offer resis.
lance to the constituted suthorities-and they
should frown down, upon all occasions, those IN.
lprincipIed individuals who are e~xerting them.
selves to create a sentiment Of hostility 10 the
Union. Until they do this, they cannot reason.

the Union, or stability and security for the fed.

Plank Roads.

In every portion of the State, the people
seem to be alive to the Importance Of good
roads. The Newspaper press is rejecting
public sentiment in urging the immediate
construction of Plank or McAdamiseG
roads.
Without such advantages,no agricultural
country, however fertile its soil or delight
full its climate, can enjoy a proper share Of
wealth and prosperity. We are glad to see
that the State is becoming aroused from
the apathy and indifference to practical i'm
.p~rovements, which have SO long weighed
like an incubus upon her energies and SC
effeetually retarded her growth and the de-
v~el6pment of her great natural resources:
We clip the following from the Occiden-
tai Messenger. whirh urges the building Of
"a Plank road from Independence to Harri-
s~onvilIe in Cass county:
The advantage Of good roads to any Sec
ton Of country is no longer a mooted ques-
ton. No principle is better settled than
that the enhsnced value of lands through
which good roads are made-to say moth
Of their comfort and convenience-is far
greater than the cost of construction; and
the district of country negecting to make
good roads, universally finds itself far in
the rear Of those where a different policy is
pursued. A good road has long been need
ed from Independence to Harrisonville.-
For want Of this, a large amount of bu-
siness is annually lost to Independence and
Jackson county, and the citizens Of Cass
county are compelled to labor under many
disadvantages. The locality Of these two
counties is such, that everythingshould be
done to facilitate intercourse & commuica-
ton between them. The agricultural pro-
ductions must come in here to find a mar
ket, or to be shipped, and goods, wares and
merchandise must be carried back in return.
Now, it is evident, that the greater the ia
cility for those operations, the more extern
they will be carried on. The rich
lands in Cass, and in the southern portion
this county, are being rapidly filled up
BY those who will reduce the wild soil to a
state Of cultivation, and of course, the a.
of productions'@ill be constantly on
the increase. This will demand increased
facilities for getting to and from market,
and on the contrary, goods and consequent
easy access TO market, and increased facili-
~ for getting supplies of goods, groceries.
&C., will induce population to settle on
fertile lands now unoccupied. So
there is double inducementt to make q good
road between these two points.

CIVILIZATION OF IsD1Ass.-Some very inte'
resting movements are now being made in north
ern Michigan, among the Ottawa and Chippews
Indians. They are now admitted to the %electiv.
franchise in that State. The Indian settlement
|at Little and Grand Traverse last year, export
ed 1000 bushels of potatoes, 1900 bushels corn
packed 1000 barrels of fish, and made nearly
one ton of sugar to each family.

ia considerable excitement has been arous.

costed hin. and some hot and angry converse.

II appears that he has repeatedly threatened to
take the lives of individuals since he has been
here. Howard lodged complaint against him and
had him arrested. for the purpose of getting him
under bonds to keep the peace--hs being. gen.
orally regarded as a dangerous man. Being un-
able to give rec ognizance when required, he was
put under guard for a short time, and soon es.
capped from them. His trunk being examined,
various stolen articles were found and r~ecoenis.
ed By the owners. Fresh pursuit was institu.
ted, and the offender was brought in on yester.

The License Law,

The merchants of St. Louis having success.
fully resisted this law---at least so far as regards
the double tax imposed on them, seem determir-
ed to rid themselves Of taxation entirely.
We confess it is difficult to understand the real
points decided by the Supreme Court, but if we
could venture an opinion at all in the midst Of
so much confusion, we would say the Court has
decided it unconstitutional to impose a license
tax and an od saIerem tax alss upon the merchant,
and that he should pay but one Of these taxes.
We really think the merchants should willingly
pay il, unless they have determined to pay no.
thing at all to the support Of the government.
