From the Louisville Journal.
Freesoil and Secession,

The New York Evening Post, a rank
Freesoil, or rather Abolition Journal, boasts
of the late Abolition triumph in the confr-
nation Of Mr.. Dix's appointment. 1t ap-
pears from the "Post" that Dix was actual
ly to have been one of the Cabinet, and that
the scheme was upset only "by the pro-
slavery pressure" from without. See the
language of the Evening Post. In men,
tioning Mr.. Dix's opposition 10 the extern
sion of slavery, g., it says:
"These were ofenses wlic h most men Of
magnanimity could forgive; nor did they pre-
vent the President from expressing desire
to avail himself Mr.. Dix's experience and
accomplished craftsmanship in the Cab
met, though we now feel authorized TO as
sumo that they did occasion that pro.slave-
ry pressure, TO which the Presidents origi-
nal inclinations are reported to have yield
ed
The Georgia Southern Banner, conclud
ing an able review of the whole transaction,
says:
Thus it is that Gen. Pierce is nursing
within his bosom faction at the North that
threatens a crusade against the slave pro-
perty of the South if they are not shielded
by the Egs of the national Democracy, and
allowed to propagate their doctrines Under
the cover of their guns. In order to sus-
tain hiin in that policy, he has found it nec-
essary 10 subsidize the Southern Secession
lists into a fatal and unprinciped coalition
with them. Bythis course he has struck o
blow against that Union which he processes
so much 10 cherish, under which it is des.
tined TO reel and rock to its center, Mt nc
distant day. The event may not occur dur
ing his administration, but lie has rendered
it sure by the policy he has pursued. We
see the cloud gathering in the distance
when the coalition between the two ex.
tretnes shall have beaten down the middle.
grottnd men-and when the extremes will
stand face to face in mortal arbtrament.-
The only way to avert it is, for the mid
dle-grounded men to rally under distinc
organization, as they did in 1850 and 1861
and shall stand aloot from all national part,
conventions, upon platform of sound re-
publican principles and equally opposed t
Northern Frcesoilism on the one hand. all,
Southern Secession on the other. Here, il
our humble opinion, is the true path of safe
ty for all the friends of the rights of tn
States and the union of the States.

Another New Territcfy-Alharra.

The Washington Union contains com.
nunicd;ion from Henry B. Schoolcrart,
Esq, in which he describes section Of
country which is known BY the name OF AL
harra. lie says i, is an attractive, well
ti'nbercd and fertile area Of country, living
Immediately west Of tie Rocky Mountains,
in mild, temperate la;itudca, to which, for
the purpose Of distinct aliusion, he applies
the above aboriginal term. This area is
about fifty miles bread, and lies parallel I'd
the Rocky Mountains for distance Of sew
cral hundred miles. Ii gives rise TO both of
the main and EumeroU. sub afilu ,nts of the
Columbia River. i; j. u high plain, which
is cnt through BY those affluenis, Of n most
fertile character, bearing trees, and in fo,ne
places high grass; and wSls the streams
create abundant ws;cr-power for lumber
and grain mills and machinery, they nrc free
from inundation Of their banks. This dis
trict probable conpreAends twenty-fye
thousand square miles, and if its capacities
of production have been correctly estimated,
would susten population greater than
some OF the Eastern and Atlantic States.
According TO the recent act organising the
Territory of Washington, it lies chiefly, if
not wholly, within the boundaries of this
new Government. 1t is altogether genial
country, and seems destined 10 form link
Of connection, by ordinary means OF transit,
with the Missouri Valley, through the Yel-
low Stone. ltmay be noticed that while
the eastern foot of the Rocky Mountains
presents vast sand deserts and burning
plains, the fertile lands in this area reach to
the very tops Of its western enihehcse.-

Pacific Railroad,

Speaking of Col. Benton and the Pacific

This route, as advocated by Col Benton
Col. Fremont, and other men Of distinguish
ed abilities, commences at or near the
mouth of the Kansas river, passes up the
valley of that stream to Bent's Fort, and up
the Huerfana to the Pass El Sdngre de
Christie into the valley of the Del Norte, land
the Ell Puerto Pass from the valley of San
Luis to the waters of the Great Colorado
of the West, and thence TO California by
Las Fegas de Santa Clara and Walker
Pass. We have an able advocate of this
route in our distinguished representative in
Congress from the first district, Col. Thomas
II, Benton,
The people of M ssouri, en- mdsse, should
support Col. Benton on this subject-it is
question that caluminates above party
party spleen should be thrust aside, at least
until the great end is accomplished.

THE MAnRIAoE ALrAR.-Judge Charl-
ton, iii recent eloquent address before tho
Young Mems Library Association Of Geor-
gia, thus sketches the marriage scene:
81 have drawn for you many pictures Of
death; let me sketch for you brief, but
bright scene of beautiful life. 1t is the mar
riage altar. A lovely female, clothed in all
the freshness Of youth and surprising beau-
ty, leans upon the arm of him to whom she
has just plighted her faith; to whom shs
has just given up herself forever. Look in
her eyes, ye gloomy philosophers, and tell
inc if you dare, that there is no happiness
on earth.
"See the trusting, the heroic devotion
which impels her to leave country, parents,
for comparative stranger. She has launch
cd her frail bark upon wide and stormy
sea; she has handed over her happiness and
doom FOR this world to another's keeping;
but she has done it fearlessly, for love
whispers TO her that her chosen guardian
and protector bears manly and noble
heart. Oh, wo to him that forgets his oath
and his manhood!
"Her dark wing shall the raven flap,
Der the false-hearted;
His warm blood the wolf shall lap,
Ere life be parted.
Shame and dishonor sit.
On his grave ever;
Blessing shall hsllow it,
Never! Oh, Never"
1--WE have oil read the story of the hus.

a CrRIoUs PRAYER.-The Syracuse
Star is responsible for the following.
In the state of Ohio there resided a faini.
ly consisting of an old man by the name ol
Beaver and his three sons, all of whom are
hard "pets," who has often laughed to scorr
the advice and entreaties Of pious though
very eccentfic Minister who resided in The
same town. 1t happened ore of the boys
was bitten by rattlesnake and was expect
ed TO die, when the Minister was sent for in
great haste. On his arrival he found the
young man very penitent and anxious to be
prayed with. The Minister, calling on the
family, kneeled down and prayed in this
wise:
80 Lord, we thank thee for rattlesnskes:
we thank thee because rattlesnake has bit
Jim. We pray thee send rattlesnake to
bite John; send one TO bite Bill; send one to
bite Sam; and o Lord, send the biggest kind
of rattlesnake to bite the old man, for
nothing but rattlesnakes will ever bring the
Beaver familyto repentance!n
