ZenS at lHe CouTC house on pOltCal topics.
All are invited to attend.
H2~The slaveocratic meeting at the court
house last evening is said to have been well
attended by the anti-Nebraskaites. Mr..
Commager wasn't there, neither was 1t.
Gov. Myers, nor Hon. +. D. Potter; but
Lord Steedman was, and U. S. Atty. Nor
ton, who each made a speech, couched in
the usual roundabout staples, indirectly up
holding the institution of slavery. Mr..
Steedman alluded to Asher Cook, Esq. AS
soon as he had concluded, the meeting called
for Judge Cook, who responded in few per-
tinent and well turned remarks, completely
flooring the Member of the Board of Public
Works. He then invited him to be present
on monday evening next, at the same place,
when they could discuss these questions at
length, and Mr.. Steedman said that if con-
sistent with his other engagements he would
be there.
Later and Better.
The Resolutions-Thu and Lightning
in a Clear Sky-Pierce, Douglas and Por-
tageville sustained-Commage and the
Napoleon Resolutions nowhere Tom
Jefferson Exploded as Humbug Wood
County forever!
Democrats read the resolutions adopted
at the Steedman meeting last night, and
compare them with those adopted at Napo-
leon. How can you support Mr.. Comma
ger on such double breasted platform
Read! read
Resolved, That we regard slavery as an
evil, and injurious to the prosperity of any
nation that supports it, and regret its exist
ence in the United States yet, as it exists
in part of the States in virtue of their SOW
ereignty. Congress has no power over it in
those States, and as the Constitution is ST.
lent in reference to the power of Congress
over it in the Territories, any act of Con-
gress authorizing or prohibiting it, would be
unconstitutional and ought to be disregar-
ded.
RcSolued, That so much of the act Of
Congress of 1920, authorizing the people of
Missouri to form a State Constitution, as
prohibits slavery north of the parallel of
$500, Commonly called the Missouri Com
PROMISE is unconstitutional and was new
cr binding on the people of those territories,
and that that part of the Kansas and Ne
braska law which declares the said Missouri
Compromise provision imperative and void,
violates 10 legal obligation, but simply re-
ieveS the Territory from unconstitutional
legislation.
RsaOlved, That Congress has no power to
reject the admission Of new States into this
Union on account of slavery provisions in
their constitutions, provided they are Re-
publican.

A SQUADRON TO GREYTowN.-The Wash
ington correspondent of the New York Tri-
bune. gives the public the following impor-
tant intelligence:
| learn that it has been determined bv the
Administration that the razee Independence
Com Martin now lying in New York har-
Dor nearly ready to sail, shall go to San Juan
de Nicaragua, by way of making decided
manifestation against the British MOSQUITO
protectorate. She will be accompanel
there by one steamer at least, if not by anv
other vessels. 1t was at first designed TO
give the command of this steamer to Capt.
Hollins, but President Pierce finally couclu-
ded he had better not. When the squadron
arrives at San Juan, the Independence will
begin by running up the flag of Nicaragua
and saIuting it; whether Com. Martin is
ordered to go further, and actually put Me
aragua in possession Of the town, | am not
informed, but tits not mprobab BILE that some
thing of that sort may be attempted. How
ever, the British man-of-war Boscawrn.
with frigatc and corvette or two. will also
be on hand and it is possible that in the
course Of six weeks or so. there will be some
interesting news from that quarter.

hANsAs EMIGRATION AND PROGRESs.----
The Louis lntelligencer says:
We are informed that the g Emigrant Aid
Association of New England, about which
so much has been said in the papers, have
purchased the principal hotel in the town of
Kansas, Jackson county, Mo, al cost of
$4,000, and that they have also bought 9th
er property in Kansas needed in their colo
nzing operations. We learn also That the.
" Association" are opening an importan,
road from Kansas out west, bridging the
streams at the cost of hundreds of dollars,
and doing much valuable work toward inn
proving the territory of Kansas 1t is fur
thermore stated to us, that the Missouri
town of Kansas is deriving great benefit
from the trade and the labor of the indus,ri-
Gus New England emigrants, and that its
citizens, so far from regarding these emf
grants as enemies and treating them as such,
gave them friendly welcome-and that the
two classes, in fact, fraternize most unre-
seryedly and pacifcally together. 1t is also
broadly hintcd TO us, that one cause of SIX.
excitement now trying TO be got up in Other
Missouri river counties in regard to thes.
emgrants, Is jealousy of the town of Kan
sas and county or Jackson, whose citizens
are about to be Unexpectedly benefited by d
people from whom they anticipated hostili-
ty and injury.

"PLL DO IT wELL."-There lives in Ne
Englanda gentleman who gave me the fo.
lowing interesting account of his own life
He was an apprentice in tin manutactory.-
When twenty-one years old he had lost his
health, so that he was entirely unable to work
at his trade. Wholly destitute of means he
was thrown out upon the world to seek any
employment for which he had strength.
He said he went out to find employment,
with the determination, that whatever he did,
he would do it tceU. The first and only thing
he found that he could do, was to black boots
and scour knives in hotel This he had, and
did well, as the gentleman now living would
testify. Though the business was low and
servile, he did not lay aside his lf-respect or
allow himself to be made mean by his bust
ness. The respect and confidence Of his EN-
ployers were soon secured, and he was adyan-
ced to a more lucrative and less Iaborious pos
ition.
sAt length his health was restored and he
returned to his legitimate business, which he
now carries on very extensively. He has
accumulated an ample fortune, and is training
an interesting family by giving them the best
advantages for moral and mental cultivation.
He now holds an elevated place in the commu-
nifty where he lives.
young men who may chance to read the
above statement of facts, should mark the se-
cret of success. The mans sohole character.
of whom have spoken, was formed and a.
yeeted by the determination to do whatever he
did, well.
DO the thing you are doing so well that
you will be so respected in your place. and
you may be sure it will be said to YOU, go
