larry, a good deal Of feeling has l,eeIi mar
Tested. The Secretary Of War has been
censurcd for lcitiuy the contract out With
oUt advertising for proposals, aud Indirect
ly the whole government has been blamed.
Considerable misrepresentation seems
also to exist IN regard to this subject.
Some persons appear to tliuk q special
appropriation net was passed. This opiil-
ion is erroneous. Tie appropriation WIS
embraced IN the River aud lfarbor bill.
approved August 30th, aud reads as fol.
lows
"For opening a ship channel Of sitfi.
cient capacity to accommodate the wants
OF eoinlncfce through the most convent.
ent ass Lending from the mississippi riv.
er into the Gulf Of Mexico, seventy-five
thousand dollars. And II shall be The duty
of the Secretary Of War TO apply said
moneys to the opening Of said ship cham
mel by contract, and at an early day in the
next session of Congress. to report the
progress of the work. the amount Iiecessa-
ry to complete 1t, and an estimate OF Al.
iiusl cost OF Keeping said channel open
aud any contract maze shall lie limited to
the amount hereby appropriated"
The above Is the OILY clause in the bill
referring 20 the mouths o.. the Mississippi.
A contemporary states Tint Senator
Sonle obtained this appropriation. Mr..
Soule gotcd against the bin containing it.
The same bill appropriated 10000 for the
Improvement Of the Arkansas, 500, 900
for removing Red River Raft, 10000 to
improve the navigation Of the Colorado,
SOC, 900 TO the Iarl,or OF Mobile, $4,000
for a survey Of Bayou Lafourcie, So 5000
for the construction of a harbor on Lake
pouchatrain, near this city, $4,000 for
the Improvement Of St. Johns River,
Florida. $4,000 for the Improvement OF
the Tennessee River.
Nj, Soule recorded his vote against
the 6W containing all these appropria-
,ions, besides many others. Certainly a
very queer way to help the cause Of river
aud larbor improvements. The people
of the South and West would have been
in n bad way with a few more such friends.

The court ordered the sheriff to commit

The Pride OF Race.

This dispute about races appears to us
simply absurd. When a man declares, "Alv
country is the best in the world" he is righi;
for him il is the best country in the world.
The virtues and talents in which his coun.
trymen happen to excel are precisely those
which lie and they value most. The Cell is
brave, ingenious, witty, hospitable, generous:
and these are the qualities dearest TO a Celtic
heart. The Saxon is prudent, devout, per-
sstent, reflective, sincere; aud these are the
virtues which the Saxon most prizes in him
self aud in others. 1t should lie the aim of
those who assume the responsible task of
guiding public opinion, not to array race
against race in bitter depreciation OF each
others cxcollencies, and in hitter exaggera-
ton of each others faulis but rather to
lead the various sorts and conditions of men
TO cordial reorganization of the great good
there is in each. To be Celt may he an
honorable disiiction, and there are those who
deem il felicitons circumstance to he of
Saxon lineage, and there are several millions
OF US who arc rather proud of being Ameri-
cans; but all of these disticiions are subor-
dlate 10 the sublime aud fundamental one of
belonging to the Family of Man, aud of being
children Of the Universal Falhcr-Iiome

MurmurlngS of The Press.

Under the Fugitive Law, these bloody
scenes, it is to be feared WILL multiply, until
border war is provoked. The people of
the North ARE expected TO look calmly on, to
conquer their prejudices," and persuade
themselves that the "riglts of the South
niny be enforced in the Free States 10y
shooting down men who make an attempt
TO escape from slavery. Such state of
things is shocking to contemplate. Humnni-
ty revolIs al, and no citizen can help feeling
that he is huinbled and the country disgruced
by such wunlon oulrages, perpetrated with
boldness and impunily in defiance Of our
laws. With well guarded fugitive law,
granting fair trial by II jury of impartial
men, these outrages would be less frequent.
But with such an infamous enncimen MS we
now have, which arms the slave hunter with
absolute power to hunt down whom he
pleases, which assumes that man charged
with being n fugitive has no rights, the state
of things must become intolerable.-.M Y.

SLAVE CATCHER's FEEs.-As many of
those who escape from bondage appear to
have resolved upon "liberly or DEATH" it
would seem to be no more than justice for
Congress to alter the Fugitive Slave Law So
as to secure to the slave Commissioners the
bounty awarded TO these officers. They
might do it by enncting that where the al
legged slave was killed in the attempt to take
him, the bounty should be paid upon delv-
cry of the ears, the same as fox scalps.-
This would secure TO that worthy class OF
officers the consideration for which they de-
liherately threw conscience to the devil
