hour when you Will be permitted to cross the
Missouri and make for yourselves fac farms IN

Missouri compromise, which will introduce
slave settlements all around yon, and subject
you 10 the competition OF slave labor? Are
yon resigned to such lot-are you willing 10

which you are how invited by the Douglas bill |!
Are you prepared 10 make the sacrifice of self.
respec, " hich the Douglas arrangement con
templates Are you ready TO take off yonr
coats and roll.up your sleeves, aud, upon The
broad valley of the Platte, come down 10 il
f'-tooled equality with Sambo :.
The above is specimsa Of the manner in
which the editor Of the Burlington (Iowa) Tel
egraph, let's himself off. We would presume he
ies considerably relieved after indiilng this pre-.
cious paragraph. One would suppose from the
sentiment of the above lines, that the entire terri.
tory OF Nebraska is considered by the Fles soil
ers AS belonging exclusively to Them Whs,
would they say, If the shareholders of The
South, would contend that no one should emf.
CRATE 10 the common territory Of every section
ut this Unlon unless he was 4 Shareholder, or a
friend TO slavery? Tina. wonli be precisely
the position of the aboli,onists. But we ask no
such thing We simpl, ask, that the grea,
Democratic doctrine OF Congressional nou.in.
terelence be acknow lodged, and hat the people
be permitted 10 decide the question Of slavery,
or no slavery, themselves. LIE, the Suuh. rner
so there with his negroes Let the Northern
or go there, with his free soil procvi,ies, with
gu. restraint or resli lotion on the subject Of
slavery, aud iaen when they are admitted into
The Union with their constitution, let majori
~ say whether slavery shall, or shall not exis,
by constitutional enactment. All the South
asks Of the Moth, is TO do as she 1.-THE South,
proposes to do-leaye il 70 the people 10 deeds,
The South asks no favor. She only claims the
same right to ENJOY the common property of all
as The North enjoys. But the North is not sal.
rsfied with this equality, She wants monop.
oily She wants Congress TO provide tina, none
but Nor'herners shall go there, and that none
but free soilers are entitled 10 protection in terri
tory. This is about the relation that the North
and the South, respectively sustain 10 justice aud
equality, oil every issue, and j, is only necessa-
ry for US to submit to she power of The majority
to establish precedent that would destroy oul
sectional identity.

Rockingham Court.


We netef go TO Rockingham Court.
without finding some interesting case be-
fore the Court. We often 90 there for the
purpose of having social clnt will, tie
friends Of our youth, and not dreaming
of picking UP items OF he1s, but The latte r
we never fail 10 dc. We were there on
last Monday, and q case was occupying
the Court of more than ordinary interest.
1t was one Of bastardy. The "nativps''
had locked in from all parts. Red hunt.
ing shirts, long boards, and long ears; fat,
rcd.faced lassies, with blue cotton umbr-,-
las, white bonneis, aud ginger cakes, were
TO be seen In proiusion. The Court House
was crowded. The female, who was tie
victim, appeared before the Court
she was pretty and poor-and bearing in
her arms, sprightly boy, her case ex-
cited general sympathy. The exan,::na
ton was commenced by Capt. r., d. Hill,
L. Rice and Col. W. Hartman, for the pros.
ecusion, ard Col. j. B Baldwin and Jas.
Kenny for the defence. The girls evil
dence was first taken--and she had to un-
dergo one Of the most searching cross-ex-
aminations to which we have ever listen
ed, and which lasted SIX hours. She
swore positively TO the father Of the child,
but it seems she swore fifty ways for Sum-
day." and that, as the sequel showed, her
story was a !alsehood from beginning 20
end. The succeeding witnesses, contra
dicted her IN every particular in which
she could be contradicted, and then the
circumstances surrounding the affair fit
ished the utter untruthfulness of her fabrl-
cation. There were great many witness
es examined, and there was great deal OF
commemorative, kissing, pledges,
&C., connected with the matter, which,
taken all together, invested the affair with
unusual interest. The pleading we UNI
derstand, which closed on Wednesday
evening, was very able, and the case was
decided unanimously, By the Court, against
the girl. We pity that female--who to
the disgrace Of adultery, can, with bold in
tent, seek to drag into her grave of infamy
tie reputation Of respectable young man,
by swearing her own soul into perdition
To what depths Of corruption can human
nature reach ?

More OutIages.

1t seems that Spain, is determined to
have rupture with this country. As
things now stand, we hope she will not be
disappointed. A letter in the N. Y. Times
states that few days ago an Ameri.
can merchantmen, going to Matanzas, was
overhauled when near that port, and fired
into by Spanish war vessel. The cap
tain made his protest in the premises be-
fore the United States Consul at Matan-
zas, who sent statement Of the case to
the Captain General at Havana, but re-
ceIving no satisfaction, has reported the
case to our government. Another Ameri-
can vessel, belonging to Richmond, Va,
commanded by Capt. J. J. Faris. was re-
Gently subjected, at Matanzas, to charge
of $3.50 tonnage duties on her deck load !,
in contravention of the port regulations,
which exact no such duties on deck car
go. The money was paid under protest.
and the case was left in the hands of the
Consul at Matanzas. for adjustment.
Capt. Faris is native Virginian, and
has relations in Richmond, and also in
Staunton.

A Just Sentence,

~ -... y,har III az 49, .,,,b-
our readers Will i@.AA~...-~. ..... We
lished some time since, an account Of the
brutal treatment Of child by its mother.
The Observation-Disclosures Of the affair will
doubtless be read with interest. We quote
from the Philadelphia correspondent Of
the Baltimore Sun:
Mrs. Hammer was convicted in the
Quarter Sessions, yesterday, for abusing
her child in the most outrageous manner,
and thss morning was sentenced to six
months imprisonment. Among her cruel.
ties to the poor little child, it will be re.
membered, that it was alleged she applied
a not iron . his nakes.. Gesh, leaving a ter
riD!!cc scar. This she denied when called
for sentence, saying that it was burned ac-
cidentally by a flat iron falling upon him
while she was ironing.
AT the announcement Of the sentence,
Mrs. Hammer swooned, and Mr.. Hammer,
(who was tried and acquitted ON the same
charge, laboring under great feeling, while
the tears run rapidly down his cheeks,
asked permission to say few words, which
was granted, when he made strong ap-
peal that she should not be sent to PRISON,
as he feared her reason would be entirely
overthrown or her life sacrificed. Judge
Kelly, however. expressed his determine
ton to punish her, when Hammer asked
that the court remand the child to his Gus
tody. Judge Kelley replied: mo. Had
your own admissions upon the former
hearing, that you took the child out oil
bed while asleep and whipped him with a
shoe, been given in evidence, the Jury
would have convicted you also. In tina,
event, would have sent you to the same
prison for the same length of time, but no,
to the same cell" Mrs. Hammer was i'm
medlately conveyed to prison.
