ANTI-SLAVERY POLITICS.

Some two moutfa sincc, we published an article
under this neadng in which We gave our best al-
vice to those voting men who think Anti-Slaycry
should be Il governing element Of their political
actiun. The last number Of the Amcri.aH .JuJHce
a monthly paper, conducted by Mr. William Good
ell, in = notice Of that article, msapprehended we
conceive is purport ard tendency. Mr.. GuOdell
seems to understand that article as embodying a
new plan Of political action for the American
Anti-Siavcry Society, and as the platform Of Il
party Of which that Society is to he the nucleus.
We do not think that it had any such natural or
necessary Specification. 1t was merely meant as II
piece Of advice to persons in all political parties
of Anti-Sayery proponsties, to the best way in
which they could do all that political action can do
ut the present point Of time. We think thaC we
made it plain enough, in its last paragraph, that
we looked ON our advice only as milk for the babes
Of Anti-Snvery politics, and by no means as the
strong meat which we thought essential to theil
growth up to the stature of perfect manhood,
/ Mr.. Goodell'S structures upon our position, as
being retrogressive from the high stand taken by
the American Society, would be lust if it was taken
up us the ground on which that Society was to d.
its lighting. But it is nothing of the sort We
stand just whore we always did. We still main
tain that the highest political duty is to labour for
the dissolution Of the present Union of these
States and for the ediiication Of better one But
! this does not hinder our seeing what is going on
in the world and Watching she various attempts
which are making to do somewhat towards

death. And, seeing what is going on, we
are graciously disposed to favor with advice

upon their own principles of strategy aud how
they would carry on their warfare with better ot

As regards his being stakeholder, we have been

Some twelve years ago DouCLAs married the

lin Mississippi, and stocked one with SO and the
other with AZ negroes, the residue OF his peculiar
property remaining ut the dilapidated homestead
few years afterwards the iather-iu-law offered
to make Sltt Of the larger plantation to DOUGLAS
But fear OF public sentiment in Illinois and the
North deferred him from receiving the " live stock

that, under the circumstances, it were better that
the "Liggers" should he settled upon his wife
which accordingly was done. Shortly afterwards
the old gentleman gave up the ghost, and was gath

SLAVE TREATY WITH ENGLAND.

The Boston Transcript says: We have been great.
ly surprised to find several influential journals at the
South gravely argue the eXpcdency and necessary
of q treaty with Great Britain and her Colonies,
in which the main features of the Fugitive Slave
Law should be incorporated. How any person at
all famIliut with the English mind, and aware at
what period of the Christian EIa are living,
should undertake to argue this point, and gravely
set out to anticipate and remove the objections
that would at once arise in opposition to the ar
rangcment, must surely lie chargeabe to some
idosyncrgcv. The man who should suggest that
the Mormon Bible be used in the schools of Mas
sachusette instead of the Sacred Scriptures would
probably meet with about us much success as will
be affirmed 10y those who have started this move
nent-The New York Albion doubtless expresses
the general and universal sentiment of the peo-
pie of England upon the sul,iec when it saysi
Such Treaty as the suggested, can never
under anv possible circumstances, be extored from
Great Britain. Ii would lie secuted out of the
Cabinet and out of Parliament, and repudated 10y
the entire voice of Press and people. There would
be no argument upon it. 1t would not he consid-
cred us open for discussion. You might as well
propose here return to the Colonial seryitude OF
a century ago, as talk in England of any such Ex
tradition. This is simple truth, matter of fact,
ineontrovertable If any section of the South
think otherwise, or rely upon the particular cen
junction of affairs it will waste its time and its
breath The point is cne of feeling; it is ingram;
ed in the national mind, and is not to lie affected
by appeals to conviction OF interest. Not even n
threatened loss of the cotton trade, or the hazard
of waE with the United States, would change the
popular will hereon. The long and the short of it
! is this any hope of Great Britain being ndaeed
to adopt the Fugitive Slave Law in her Colonies
may be dismissed forthwith and forever"

HAYrNo.-Thick heavy grass should be
mown first, as that is liable to lodge. Then
take the next heaviest and the next, and so
on, reserving the thin to the last unless it is
becoming too ripe or dry and why, when the
sooner it is mown the better. When 'tsecond
CROP is calculated upon, the first crop should
be taken earlier. The ground should be Inown
clean and even, the hay should be properly
made. 1t should remain upon the ground
until cured, and not while the good qualities
are roasted GU. of it, in a burning sun Some
farmers, not content with curing their hay,
soorch it until it will crumble into chaf.-
Good hay making consists in rendering the
cut grass, so dry as not to heat much in the
NOV, and at the same time to preserve as much
as possible the natural juices of the grass.
In England, farmers barn the hay much
sooner after cutting than we do in this coun-
try, and to preserve it from overhead, they
place upon the scafolding, first a layer Of
fresh hay and then thin layer of straw, and
thus, until the NOW is completed. The straw
absorbs the damp exhalations Of the new hay,
becomes i1npregnated with them, and thus
preserves the NOV, and at the same time, the
straw thus used, is eaten by the cattle with
great avidity. Others use salt; from four to
eight quarts to ton is sufficient, and this
quantity will not only preserve hay in a green
state, out IL aduS 10 the qualltY Dy rendering
more Of it pslateable to the cattle.
As to curing clover, q diversity Of opinion
prevails
Some say it should remain in tie swarth till
it dries to two-thirds OF its thickness then be
turned over without spreading, suffered to dry
a little, and then be barned, Others recon-
mend to let the 'spreader' follow tho mower
make the hay as soon as possible, and get it
in the barn before the leaves crumbe Others
still, spread, rake, and put it into cocks as
soon as possible; let it remain in the cock over
night or until it makes, and then barn it.
Now these methods are to be used according
to circumstances. In fair weather, spread the
swarths, but if lowery or variable, let the
grass remain in the swarth until half dry, then
turn it over, without spreading. and drying
awhile get inf rain comes, or put it into
cocks if fair. If salt is used, either method
can be used.-FGrmer and Vistter.
