ANOTHER RECRUIT Brown, editor of
the Marion, Indiana, Republican, formerly a
whig paper, announces that hereafter he will
be found battling with the great democratic
party of the country. The Rock Island Dem
ocrat says
{. The editor of the Republican is not the
only whig editor in the north who has lately
had to join the democracy, owing to the fact
that the leaders of that once powerful party
have merged it into the abolition Know Moth
ing proscriptive party. Thousands of patri-
otic and national wings among the masses are
also joining the democracy, rather than lend
their aid to the disorganizing and traitdrous
schemes of the abolition demogogues and fa-
natics of the north. We again assert that
the next presidential race will be between the
abolitionists. know-nothings and disunionists
on the one side and the national democracy
aided by all national wings on the other; and
in such a. contest, who can doubt the trium-
phant success of the democracy, the party
that has ever upheld the constitutional rights
of all sections of the country as guaranteed
to them under the constitution ?'

Closing BARRIERS Shops.

Mr.. EDITOR Il notice in your paper an allu-
sion to the petition of the BARRIERS and others, to
have all the BARRIERS shops closed the Sabbath,
and as am opposed to that movement ask place
to say word in your columns in regard to it. In
the first place there is class of persons in COM
munity who depend upon others to do for them
what some people do for themselves, especially
such labor as shaving. Now this class of people
desire to be accommodated, and as l have always
made it a rule to accommodate to the best of my
ability, all my customers at all times, ask the
privilege of shaving such persons, because they
do not wish to do it themselves. Besides, they
wish often to use my baths, and to have their
heads dressed ready for church, and as religious
persons hire preachers to labor on the Sabbath
instead of working themselves, so |, like minis
tiers Of tie gospel, work for those who cannot or
do not wish for themselves My customers are
made up of all classes of persons, who are unable
in many cases to get done on Saturday evening
what do for them on Sunday morning. l desire
to have the right Of shaving these men and re-
ceiying pay for it, just as singers get pay for sing
ing on the Sabbath. 1.-THE city and citizens wish
to close one kind Of places where men labor to
accommodate the public, why not close ALL be-
ginning with livery stables, apothecares shops,
churches &c for in each ofthese men hire Others to
do that labor that they will not do themselves, and
and |, on my part, shave and champoone people,
who will not do that work with their own hands
A barber in his shop performs, every Sabbath,
the very same labor that private individuals do in
ther own homei ana DOUBT whether any OF the
petitioners in aid Of the BARRIERS, hesitate to
shave Sundays. For these reasons / say let the
BARRIERS alone. and let us accommodate our Gus
toners, for it is only by this that we can expect
to succeed. My patrons who have supported me
generously and enabedme fit up the best BARRIERS
saloon in the city, want me TO keep on the Sab
BATH and always try and do my best to suit and
accommodate them. feel il my duty to publicly
give the reasons why do not wish TO close on the
Sabbath, but If the city government says "close
up" then, like any good citizen, shall obey.

The case of Rosetta the slave girl, which isnow
occupying considerable attention at Cincinnati,
where it is pending, is good illustration of the
way Southerners obey the laws ofthe States inre-
lation to slaves, when those laws initiate against
their interests.
John Tyler, ex-President of the United States
presented girl named Rosetta to his son-in-law
Rev. H. NJ. Dennison, who had her conveyed into
Ohio, in transitu for Wheeling. When in Ohio
she was taken before a magistrate, and it was
proven that she had been brought voluntarily into
theState. Upon this being shown she was declared
to be free, but was permitted to make her choice,
whether she would return to Kentucky and to Slav
cry or reside in Ohio. The girl preferred to be free
and gentleman being found willing to accept
the trust, she was put under guardianship. One
night, shortly after this her guardians house was
visited by two men, who forcibly abducted the
girl and carried her off, threatening to shoot or
stab any one who should attempt toprevent them
The neigkbors rose however, and the glrl-stealers
were stopped at Cincinnati. The girl is confined
waiting to be tried before .. S. Commissioner
She has been already declared free by the courts
of Ohio-she is not fugitive slave-and what
ground there is for trial is more than the best law
yers in Ohio can see. But cold-blooded, preju-
diced commissioner, like E. 6. Loring, will soon
find reasons for condemning Rosetta, against law
and evidence, to perpetual bondage. Such case
as that of Rosetta shows the necessity there is
for making the most stringent laws in the North
ern States for the protection ofpersonal liberty.
Since the foregoing was prepared, the following
telegraphic despatch was received, by which it
appears that Rosetta is again at liberty.
A SLAVE CASE IN CINcINNATI.-C Cincinnati,
March 29.-Rosetta, a colored girl, who was
some time since brought to this State from
Kentucky by the agent of her master, and de-
clared free by State Court at Columbus,
and guardian appointed, was to-day arrested
under the fugitive slave act. The case came
before Judge Parker, who decided that the
girl was entitled to her freedom, having been
brought into the State by her owner or his
representative. Some excitement was created
by the U. S. Marshal attempting to arrest her
after the decision, and riot was apprehend-
ed, but the girl was safely consigned to the
care Of her friends.

CUBAN AFFAIRs.-The WASHINGTON Union
holds the following language respecting Gu
ban affairs:
cat the very moment when we are an
nouncing with pleasure the settlement of one
outrage, we are forced to announce the com
mission Of two others-thus proving incontes-
tably that Madrid is not the place for secur-
ing that promptness of reparation which is
essential as guarantee for the continuance OF
peaceful relations. Whilst, therefore, we in
dulge the hope that cases still pending at Ma
drid may be all speedily and satisfactorily ar
ranged, we hope with even more earnestness,
but with much less prospect of having our
hopes realized, that the late occurrences and
the manner of treating them by our govern
ment will produce such change in the poll
cy Of the Spanish government, in regard to the
Cuban possessions as will move efectually
and for ever all further cause for of disagree
ment between the two governments"

AessrS. Editors II always make it point of
conscience to attend the concerts of the Mozart
Society, because of the marked influence which
their operations exert upon the singing in our
churches. The talents of our young ladies and
gentlemen, who are inclined to the practice of
music, are cultivated, voices are developed and
taste is educated, by the training which is found
in such organizations. This Society has done
much very much, in my judgment, to improve
the singing in our churches, and it seems very
little for us who enjoy the benefits thereof, to
pay the few quarters which are asked to take our
families to the concerts. 1 trust our societies
will see the advantages of sustaining the Mo-
zarts, whose operations give so great a recon-
pense in the elevation of the musical exercises of
devotion, and at so little expense. Putting this
view of it aside, the entertainment proposed for
Fast Night will, of itself, richly repay the tri-
fling sum demanded for admission.
