j.. NEW ORLEANS SLAVERY AND NORTHERN
FREEDoM.-The st. Louis Democrat of the 22d
ult., publishes the following account of the ex-
perience Of a slave belonging to gentleman in
New Orleans: = = b.! ~ 10 <37s5 ?. ..,' -
The gentleman is a very indulgent master,
and Bill got spoiled by living to easy, and his
master resolved to set him free. He accordingly
sent him to Cincinnati with letter to friend
there. When he arrived and presented ssthe
documents" he was informed that he was as
free as any negro in Ohio; that his master in
Louisiana had become displeased with him on
account of his conduct, and had therefore sent
him to a free State to work his passage through
life g on hison hook.'' The negro didn't like
the arrangement, very much, apparently but as
good employment was rendered him he went to
work. He had about two hundred dollars in
his pocket. Two or three weeks dissatisfied
him with free labor, if not with freedom, in Gin
'cinnati. He visited the towns on the Ohio,
went to Pittsburg and Philadelphia. The fur
Their he went the more he became dissatisfied.
At last he returned to Cincinnati, and told the
gentleman to whom he was originally accredited,
that he was tired of freedom such as they had
there, and chat nothing could afford him somuch
happiness as for his old master to take him back.
He was in great distress for fear he would be
refused. However, Bill was sent back to New
Orleans, and is there now with his master; and
the worst threat that; can be made to the poor
fellow is, that if he dent do right he'll be sent
off to the free States to take care Of himself

phia Sun, in remarking upon our notice Of
the opening Of the. -opelousas Railroad,
thinks that in designating that road as the
beginning of a track to the Pacific, we are
q counting, the chickens before they are
hatched.1 Let facts speak for themselves.
ThesSiate of Texas has already granted q
tract ofiland twenty nnilesini breadth, across
lis entire territory, forthe benefit Of road
to the Pacific. and the Ope!ousas is now
nearly completed through distance Of one
hundred and seventy miles The lands
granted BY Texas will more than pay, the
cost Of afroad through that State, and gfound
will be broken upon it5shortly. The OpeI
lonsas road will connect with this, and we
shall then havenan enterprise in progress
toward the Pacific at least. Why then
should not the Opelousas be designated as
the "Great Pacific Railroad t'-Creseent. -

There is not country in the world where

disgusting, How it looks to see boys sporting

to be IN the work house And girls, silly, SIM
