Vanity in Ministers.

Vanity is bad enough in anybody. But in
young ministers it is fatal. 1t shows itself in
want Of Difference for age, which makes them
odious to their older brethern. 1t gives them
pompous manner which exposes them to rid
icule. When an unhedged STRIPPING rises in
!hs pulpit, and gravely announces some new
metaphysical theory which is to throw light
through the whole realm of theology, we can
hardly keep our countenances at his self'cOm-
placent air, at the presumption which would
thus teach wisdom to gray hairs. In truth we
have had enough Of those young Peacocks, ,hut-
tering in our desks. tits time that the whole
tribe is exterminated.
Unfortunately, young ministers are less like
" to be cured of this infrmity than other men,
Lawyers are so knocked against each other,
that they soon find their level. But black
coats throw around their wearer charmed
circle. In his own parish young preacher is
exalted on pedestal. He is monarch OF al

amount to two hundred and Lwenty-fcu years;

The Platte Purchase.

Il is several years since the first violation Of
the Missouri Compromise occurred The pass.
age Of Douglass bill was not the first The
Shareholders long ago coveted and BY consent
Of Congress obtained possession by annexation
TO Missouri Of what is nov called Platte coun-
ty in that State. 1t is an exceedingly rich tract
Of land and in 1850 contained a white popula
ton of I4,047 with 2,898 slaves. The number
Of the latter is now estimated at 1000. In this
county is Atehison's residence and the head
quarters Of the Vanda!s who over rAnKa1sas at
the time Of the March election In order 20
hasten the thorough establishment Of Slavery
in Kansas il is now proposed by the MisourianI
IN the 'rump' Legislature to re-snnex. Platte
county TO Kanzas and thus give the territory .
population which will entille il to immediate
admission as State, with Ehatever advantage
that residence of the 1000 slaves may give il
for a permanent slave State. To effect this
arrangement the consent Of Platte county must
be Obtained as well as that Of the Missouri and
Kansas legislatures and Of the United States
Congress.
We are quite rejoiced to see these MissOurians
bent upon bringing this question Of the Admis-
sion Of Kansas as Slave State to so speedy
an issue. The sooner the better. Let them
come on, and let US know what is the pluck Of
our newly elected Congressmen. Judging
from the past Of most COngressTen, their bacE
bones have much more consistency at the begir
ing than at the close of their term Of Office.
We should like to see them tested before
southern appliances have weakened the
northern tension OF their nerves So we
say let Kansas be hurried up and bring non ex
tension politics and POLITICIANS to the practica
test as speedily as possible. Platte county
ought to be reannexed to Kansas and her 1000
slaves emancipated by Congress. This las
ought to be done whether she stay in Missouri
or goes out of it. The Compromise was
violated when Slavery was fastened upon ii BY
annexation 10 Missouri and make that bargain
right between Missouri and the North eVery
slave on the Platte purchase should be emanei'
pated. But this first little stealing OF Platte
county has been lost sight of OF wrongfully a.
quiesced in, since Slavery has stolen the who'll
vast territories of Kanzas and Nebraska
