your legislation, in restoring equality to differ

gains of their capital, which had been fostered
BY legislative bounty While the north was
thus whining in sackcloth and ashes over their
fancied oppression, she had but about $70,0 ,000,-

this government attempted to be used to do?
To withdraw legislative bounties, and refuse to
foster unnatural interest upon capital? No !;
it is called upon to upheave the social founda-
tons Of a magnificent region; to confscate
property of incalculable magnitude; to expel

Sir, the smallest State in the south has more
property in slaves, than all the north had in
manufactures, when she crowded these lobbies,
and besieged the doors of this hall, crying out
against the withdrawal of Legislative bounty.
And shall the south be quiescent and train
her tongue to honeyed words, when you raise
against her the ruthless hand of power and OPP

will take none; but firmly demand our rights.

fishermen clamorously demand the protection
Of this government; and where blue.lights once
blazed, the fires of resistance are fercely burn
ing. What, sir, shall this government be called
upon, at the hazard of war, to protect few
northern men in questioned right to fish, and
then deny protection to stupendous interests at
the south, which the Constitution has covered
with its sacred panoply7 Where, sir, will pre-

A Sporting Story,

The following, taken from the CaIifor-
MIA correspondence of the New York
Spirit of the Times, will be recolected
as true, the Stockton Post says, by the
'boys" in that vicinity:
GA single instance will show the loose
ness with which our sporting men--and,
by the way, every man in California is
more or less sport-pile up the agony
on the speed of a horse. An awkward,
green looking genius, bearing the name
of Humphrey, (whether his real name
deponent saith not, made his appear
ance at Stockton few weeks since, rid
ing a clever looking sorrel mare, which
he was quite anxious to sell. The price
named was three hundred dollars
Some one looking at the nag with the
view of buying, remarked that she was
fair beast, but he could not see such val
ue in her as that. Humphrey said she
was worth it every dollar; was kind,
sound, an all-day traveller, would 90 to
the end of the road, and besides, she
could run some.
"How fast do you think she can run -
''Fast enough to beat any saddle horse
about here at four hundred yards" said
Humphrey.
The other having a pretty fast horse,
thought here was chance for spec,
and called on II. to back his Opinion
So they made up match for $500 a
side, which the mare won bg about a
length. Humphrey was of course highly
eiated with his success, and of course
again irrigated freely, grew talkative,
was loud in his boastings, and finally
swore his mare was a race nag. and
could beat anything that stood on legs.
Here was a splended opening for the
knowing ones, who at once went to
work, and BY arttul management, and
taking advantage of Humphreys oondi-
ton, roped him in to make a match
against the fastest nag about those parts,
for $4,000 a side, to be run on another
day, and to make all sure, before he got
sober, they posted the blunt, and made
him cover it.
The time came, the horse went, TT.
riding his mare, and winning by a5oaa q
length. And yet he acted the verdant
50 well, and played his game so low
down, that the knol0ing unes didn't vet
smell a mice They thought the fault
was in their rider, and actually made
another match on the same horse, for all
they could rake together, which the mare
again won 5y about a length. Hum
phprey's winning amounted in all to
about eleven thousand dollars, and when
last seen was riding out of Stockton.
