Conscience and Pumpkin Seeds.

Mr. EDITOR: I'm a farmer, and after | get
through foddenng the cattle in the evening,
like TO sit down and read the papers. Now
have read great deal lately in the Journal of
Commerce and other papers about Conscience
aud the higher law, and the duty of everybody's
obeying the law, and they've published a great
many sermons too, all going to prove that you
must obey the law of the land ANYHOW, and YOU
can reason it ont atterward whether YOU are
breaking the law of God or hot | should saw
these editors and ministers had now pretty much
conluded they have cover up peoples consci-
ences with their sermons and arguments and
threats so deep that we sha'nt hear much more
about 1t, and it really puts me in mind of broth
or Seth's and thy eXerlonce when we were bows.
The fact was, father set Seth and to planting
pumpkln-seeds among the corn, and he gave us
stlLt to plant 50 many rows, and if we got
through before night, we might go fishing,
there are big trout up in our creek.) So we
went at il and worked like beavers. till we cot
about half through, when it was getting so late
that our fishing looked like comminr out the
little end of the horn. So says Seth SAYS he,
"COme, Jonathan, we'll have no fishing at this
rate. Come let's put the rest OF the seed under
Il big stone the old man III never know it hell
think they rotted in the hill So we put them
rpder the biggest kind of a stone, and went off
fishing, thinking we had done the thing up RIGHT
smart. We'll, in few days, after nice grow
ing spell, father and we boys were going IN
through the corn field, and there the corn and
pumpkins las far as we pIanted) were up finely :
and, would you think it, that big stone! it was
surrounded, no it WAS most covered, with fine
thrifty pumpkins coming up and growngaround
like sixty
The old man stared well, and guess we BOYS
stared some, too There were the pumpkins,
come up all regular about half way, and no pump
kins all regular about half way, and there was
"somc pumpkins" about that stone, | guess
Well, the wonder was out and no denying it.
The licking Seth and got that time, it makes
me a little uncomfortable to think of it even tc
this day. Now, these editors and ministers
and politicians who have been at work so hard
and so long, trying to bury conscience so deep il
will never come up again, wonder if they will
have any better luck than Seth and had |
don't believe they will. My opinion is, there is
as much life in conscience as there is in pump
kin Seeds Don't you Mr. Editor?

Sumner Elected and Freedom
Triumphant !

1t is with no ordinary feelings OF qualification
that we this week announce to our readers the
election Of Charles Sumner to the Senate OF thc
United States. Freedom has achieved victory
in Massachusetts which should call forth the re-
joicngs OF her friends from Name to Missouri,
hot for the elevation Of the man, as worthy as
he Is of any pllce within the gilt of the people,
not for him, bat the triumph Of the great cause
ut llntn liberty, with which his name, in the
Il roe battle that has here been fought over his
uls I. nas become so stnkngly identified. And
mHea5urabIy greater is their ground Of eXulta
ton, as the same announcement which p"ocIaIms
his election, procIaims also the defeat of Daniel
Webster, in his shameless attempt to degrade
his own State into vassalage to the slave power
OF the South.
Perhaps no Senatorial election ever occurred
in the country, in which such an unhoIy combi-
nation of the hitherto controlling powers Of the
land, was put in operation Tor it, defeat The

that silent but stern preacher Of liberty Th,y
can now hear the story of throwing the tea over

This important result cannot but be deeply
felt throughout the whole Unions for while the
friends OF freedom will justly " thank God and
take courage" the corrupt myrmdons of the
slave power, boih at the North and the South,

Demonstration at Montpelier.

The news of no public eveLt which has trans.
PRED tor many years, ever produced hveIier
sensation in Montpelier than that which reached
US by telegraph last Thursday, procaimiug the
election Of Charles Sumner. The electric spark
which brought the welcome intelligence seemed
instantly TO have communicated itself to the
hearts of our people. All was stir and ANNA
ton. AS the tidngs passed from mouth to
mouth around the village, short and smiling
faces we're everywhere to be seen, THE long
ones very decently wirhdrawing.) Almost with.
in the hour a cannon was planted by the side of
our tall Liberty pole on the hill, and, amidst the
ringing Of bells and huzzaing of the people,
spoke out, aid continued to speak, till one hun
bred and twenty guns had announced the glad
event to the surrounding country. prelinl.
nary gathering in the mean time took place at
the court house, which was followed the next
evening by large and spirited meeting, the
proceedings Of which will be found in another
column.

The Union Whig, which we have ever looked
to as a reliable index Of the true policy of the
Wing Pary,-whatever other Wing presses
may say and do with view of retaining Free
Soil thunder for eectoneering purposes, fully
susains our late, but disputed assertion that nine
Wing presses in Vermont were sustaining the
Compromise And as to the other Wing presses
in Vermont, which profess to condemn the Slave
Law, if they expect to gain any credit for sim
Gently and consistency, they must cease vilify-
flying Free Solers for expressing the same SEN
tmcnrs. As it is and as we believe the policy
of that party is intended to be, the frank and
open course OF such papers as the Belio.os Falls

most respect from political opponents; and fol
ourselves, as Numerically opposite as are oul
views about these measures, we confess we car

The SLAVERY QUESTION IN NEW
SHAPE.-The slavery question is about to
come before the New York Courts in new
shape, under the following circumstan-
Ces -
"a young man from the South, who is
suspected of having little Indian or negro
blood in his veins, graduated some time
since at the New York University, and
then entered his name in the medical de-
partment as a student of medicine, having
first paid the usual fees. Some Of the South
ern students, conceyng it derogatory to
them to sit in the same class with a man
having little Indian or negro blood, wait.
ed on the faculty and requested his dismis-
sal. The Professors did not know what to
do IN the matter, and wavered about COM
plying with the demand. At length they
gave In, and told the young man it would
be better for him to retire. Conceiyng
this to be a dismissal, he left the class, and
mas now sued out mandamus, directing
them to show cause why they refused to
allow hun to finish his studies. The SUBJ
lect is talked about good deal, but no
one knows what the result will be."-V Wind
