This fair lady Of the stars, and her two
fair dauflters, have risen like three Venus
es, above the horizon Of Natchez, and
last evening nnrolled the mystic archieves
OF fate at the Natchez Institute Hall.
She claimed to have read in the starry re-
cords Of the skies, and to have announced
u at the time Of his Imagination that the
sables Of %nationnaal mourning would
shrond the halls Of State during
the Presidency Of General Taylor. She
now reads from the stars that tic Fillmore

Snow SToRM.-On Sunday night last
we wers visited with the heaviest falling
OF snow witnessed in Louisiana for many
years. Some of the more Anticipated res
idents Of Baton Rouge aver hat they
have seen the ground covered much deeper
than on Monday morning last, and to them
it was not unprecedented in quantity, o
exceedingly SO unusual in appearance
TO We Younger ones, however, it was
something strange and new, TO see snow
in Baton Rouge near three inches in depth.
The snow commenced falling rapidly
about twelve O'Clock Sunday night. and
continued until about eleven Monday
morning, when nature, cycling "thc dying
year enshrouaed in 9, winding sheet. and
its aged limbs clothed in the habiliments
of the tomb grew sad at the sight
wept, and 10. the snow had vanished.

lE-A fuss has occurred in the medical
department of Harvard College. Among
the students are three negroes. These
were endured, but an attempt was made
to introduce . negress to the classes. This
excited opposition, which was shown by
the white students ~absenting themselves
from the lectures. The black s'lady'' las
she is called in the Boston Medical Jour
nah hearing that there was opposition to
her admission. Withdrew her application !;
the faculty, however, refused TO exclude
the negro man.

10 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Davenport

u ARREsTED.-Ephraim Davenport
and Joseph Forester were a few days
since arrested in this place, on a charge Of
attempting to inveigle or steal away q
couple of negroes belonging to J.. W.
Musselman, Esq. The negroes were
found in the possession 9f Davenport, at
the time Of his arrest. The examination
before the Mayor, resulted in the discharge
Of Forester, and the committal of Da-
venport for trial before the District Court.
We think the couduct observed by these
men towards the negroes of this place,
even separate from that which more i'm
mediately caused their arrest, is well de-
serving the most summary and exemplary
punishment. Such proceedings should be
50 dealt with at once, as to deter others
who may be similarly inclined from per.
pctrating like offences.

the Rev. Theodore Parker Of Boston =
This bill you remember was passed BY. .
Northern majority IN Congress, and as
think offers every satisfaction and security
to tile South that reason can require.
Having, az / believe, cited evidences
sufficient to satisfy any unprejudlced mind
that the people Of the North have mani
tested every disposition 10 convince US OF
their friendship and love Of Union, | dis
miss this part Of yonr message, and will
proceed to notice briefly your ties to the
South. You are kind enough to inform
us that you are a father and a property
bolder--that yon have been honoed by
the people Of your State, etc. Well, sir,
] too have q family and property in Loaisi-
ana. But have a tie that binds me to
the South, which you can never feel. "lt
is my own, my native land. And with
all the feelings and interests Of q South
crner, | can bat view the principles you
advance in your message as ruinous to the
South, to constitutional liberty, and, in
spirit, reasonable to the Government that
has fostered and protected you, your child
rem and property. Nor is it the first time
that you have urged upon the people the
right 10 break asulder the bonds OF their
constitutional liberty. Indeed, you seem
to have a sort Of mania for political change
and revolutionary strife, as incompatible
| with American liberty as it is with the
character of a true patriot and good citl-
zen,
But before closing this communication,
T will briefly notice hat part of the mes
| sage, tnat relates to the abolition OF the
slave trade in the District Of Columbia
| You will not deny that the Constitution
Of the United States gives to Congress
| the exclusive jurisdiction over that District.
Why then may not the people OF the
District ask Congress, as their sole Legls-
| Iature, to abate what they consider a
nuisance among them! 1t IS nothing
more than every slavefiolding State in the
Union has substantially done through Its
Legislature. But, Governor, it it appears
toyour dilated eye such a monsterous affair
now, to prohibit a few traders from making
the District a depot to sell slaves in, why
did you not SO consider it in 1882, when
You advocated a constitutional prohibition
Of precisely the same character IN your
own State? Aud you then old us thai
you were sincere in your convictions and
honest in your vote, and doubtless you
were SO. Your opponents, however, dc
not clamor for secession--a separate con
Lfederacy, or a committee of safety. But
they remedied what they afterwards con.
sidered an evil, at the ballot-box. 600 ye
and do likewise ~
In my next communication, I will notice
that portion Of your message, which re-
lates to the admission Of California, etc. !
must, however, embrace this opportunity
to congratulate you upon the prospect Q
the early completion of the Insane Asy
lum Of Mississippi. Press forward, my
dear sir, the good work, for it is, | foar
much needed in your State.
Respectfully,
RICHARD A. STEWART.
