propriety OF language and timidity of manner
that prepossesses the audience in her favor.
Strange that we never find the :" lady like air.
and propriety of language" among our free
negroes Of the North. Is the tendency of slavery
to make negro women lady like and proper in
their behavior and manners' Verify, we must
infer so from this. We will bet hundred dol
lars there will be lady like air propriety OF
language about Jane ten years from now, and
another hundred that her two boys become vaga-
bonds and thieves within that time. But, no
matter, they are free.

never knew one who was not brought up by a

the sick headache which has been recently offered
the public attracting great attention, not only
by reason of the very satisfactory testimonials 10
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many

Eastman, who discovered the efficacy of his "rem-

with large practice. He is physician in whom
great confidence is placed; and we do not wonder
that his remedy for very common disease, which

ofal sufferers from headache who have heard of it..
From our own knowledge of DR.. Eastman's char

TO LOVERS OF THE FRENCH LANGUAGE

NNHE Advertiser, a Frenchman and grad
j uate Of the Polytechnic School OF Paris re
specially offers his services as teacher Of his
native tongue TO Schools Classes, and Private
Pupils of this city and vicinity. The system he
follows 10 facilitate the acquisition of the French
Language, unites in due proportion theory and
practice; by which avoided the difficulties the
student often meets with n pursuing one Of the
many theoretical grammars not sufficiently show
ing the ldomancal part Of The language, or prac
teal one, in which the necessary grammatical
rules, if not entirely, at !east far too much, are
neglected. In following these theoretical gram
mars, the student must have experienced that
after having devoted long time 10 the mere me-
morizing OF sentences, he find himself in posses.
sion of number OF set phrases, valuable il is
true, but from which, destitute Of landmarks, The
slightest deviation must lead him INFO unknown
regions,
The advertiser feels confident in the assertion
that the pupil, in adopting his method, may, with
little effort, after course of forty.eigM lessons,
understand and speak the French and find the as
sistance of a teacher not necessary in the further
prosecution of the studies OF lha, language.
Instruction in Pencil Drawing Pastel Painting,
and Penmanship, can also he had from the adver
User.
References in success in teaching etc, etc, will

L5@" Suppose the citizens Of Kansas apply,
they arc not unlikely to, with free Consttu-
ton In that every supporter Of the doctrine
Of popular sovereignty is bound TO vote for
her admission. Toombs pledged himself to do
so in his speech. General Cass, Messrs. Douglas,
Brodhcad, Jones, Bright, Atchison, Brown, Daw-
son, Gwn, Toucey, &c, sc, all supported the
bill with declarations implying that they would
not oppose the determination of the settlers, what
ever it might be. The question is whether those
gentlemen will abandon the popular sovereign
~ doctrine and falsify all their declarations of
last year. Eve Journal.
Wo believe the Journal has stated the case
correctly and that its premises correct. The
doctrine of popular sovereignty, embodied in
the Nebraska bill, seeks only the sovereignty of
the public will. II therefore Kansas apply for
admission with constitution prohibiting slavery,
il is the duty Of Congress 10 admit her into the
Union and we doubt not that in such an event
all who supported the Nebraska bill would vote
for her admission. So too if the people of Kan
sas should decide to have slavery, and should
apply for admission into the Union with consti-
tuition 10 that cffect-equal justice demands that
she be admitted. We doubt not that in any event
Congress will have regard to the principle of
popular sovereignty embodied in the Nebraska
bill, and that, in admitting territory into the
Union, she will carry out the views of the citi-
zens Of that Territory. Albany .4rgs
