IL In a Narrative of Travels on the Amazon and

an extraordinary tree called the milk tree, which
was one OF the first wonders he saw near Para.
The fruit is eatable, and full of rich and very
juicy pulp; but strangest of all, is the vegetable
milk, which exndes IN abundance when the
bark is cut. II is about the consistence of
of thick cream. and but for very slight peculiar
taste, could scarcely be distinguished from the
genuine product of the COW. Mr.. Leavens order
month in the yard he cut several notches in The
bark with an axe, and in a minute the rich sap
was running out in great quantities. II was col
lected in basin diluted with water, strained and
brought up at tea time, and at breakfast next
morning. The peculiar flavor ofthc milk seemed
rather TO improve the quality Of the tea, and gave
il good a color as rich creams in coffee il is
equally good" The milk is also used for glue, and
il is said TO be as durable as that made use Of by
carpenters.

THE PEOPLE AROUSED.

Members of Congress ere this have learned
that whatever they may do the People Of the
North will not submit to the repeal of the
Missouri Compromise. The extreme indigna-
ton everywhere breaking out in that section
should admonish the Administration, and the
whole tribe of soheming politicians, that the
last point of endurance has at last been reached.
Not even in ls4s we're the People of the North
90 deeply incensed, and so unanimous in their
verdict against the Slavery Propagandists
The meetings in New York, Cleveland, Pitts
burg, are mere heralds Of the coming storm
Let the Administration, and those Northern
men, with whom it seems to be running neck
and neck race, for Southern support, look to it.
This time, the dividing line will BIO drawn, and
no room will be left for compromise The issue
is, the repeal Of the Missouri Compromise and
Slavery IN Nebraska or tie maintenance Of The
Missouri Compromise and Freedom IN Nebras-
ka. The Northern man whoshall vote for Repeal
and Slapery whatever motives he may plead
in justification or extenuation will be tried
and condemned by the North, as a traitor to
it's interests and institutions.

AGITATION


AGITATION
II is now nearly thirty four years since, after
q severe sectional and political struggle, the
Congress OF the United States declared that
Slavery should be prohibited forever in all ter
ritory north of 80 deg. and 30 min, and in oil
the States TO be formed therefrom Upon this
consideration, Congress voted Missouri into the
Union as slave State and the act was re.
garded as pact between the Government and
the States, in reference to tho future disposition
OF the whole subject. This disposition of the
subject was approved by Jefferson, who looked
with alarm upon the transportation Of sectional
feeling caused by this contest. twas approved
by President Mouroe and by John Quincy
Adams, Calhoun and Crawford, then in his
Cabinet
For moro than one-third Of century IL has
stood untouched Arkansas has followed Mis-
souri, into the Union, under il, as slave State,
without n murmur OF dissent and Iowa has
become State, and Minnesota is waiting for
admission, under Constitutions formed IA free
States in pursuance of the Compromise In
the last Congress, q bill passed the House Of
Representatives organizing the Territory nofth
Of SO deg. 80 min, and west Of the Rocky
Mountains, (largcr than all the free States Of
the Union together, leaving out California, J
under the name Of Nebraska. It passed the
House by q large majority. II failed to pass
the Senate, though Mr.. Atchison, Of Missouri,
urged in relation to tin speech made tho
4th OF March, is53--the birthday Of the new
Administration :" IL is evident that the Mis-.
souri, Compromise cannot be repealed. So far
as that question is concerned, we might as we'll
agree to the admission OF this Territory now,
as next year, or five or ten years henceb And
II failed from other considerations than those
growing out Of tho question Of Freedom or
Slavery.
