The Bitter Fruits---The Suicide of Sla-
very.

Our news from Western Missouri is of omi
nous and most discouraging character. The
region is suffering from mildew and blight 1T
glory is dimmed, its spirits abated, and its hope
fading.
The emigration to Kanzas has been almos
entirely checked. Emigrants from the North
ern or free States have ceased to go to Kanzas,
because they can find as good lands elswhere
not cursed by mob law, nor ruled by non-resi-
dent bullies. Emigrants from the Southern
States do not go to Kanzas, because they will
not put their slave property in peril, by taking
into a territory where there is strong Free
soil element threatening the security of slaves
ANY man of sense might have fCreseen this
result Alabama and Georgia may hold pub.
lie meetings, and resolve to sustain the slave
holders in Missouri in making Kanzas a slave
State. But their resolutions comprise all ther
aid-which is not material enough for the cri
sis. When shareholders of alabama and Geor
gia emgrate, they go to Louisiana, Arkansas,
and Texas. They do not come, with theil
81 aves, to Missouri or to Kanzas. Call they
that, backing their friends?
Thus the matter stands: The Northern emf
grants shun Missouri and Kanzas as plague
spots of The nation. The Southern emigrants
shun Missouri and Kanzas, because here il
the battle ground between Slavery and Free
soil.
The result IS, Kanzas, the fairest land under
the sun, is neglected and idle: occupied by
few honest and earnest, but disheartened pio
neers, and lorded over by dozen or two feu
dal tyrants of Missouri, who curse by thei
presence the land they have desolated.

An old Fable.

There is an old Arabian fable which runs
thus; Just after our first parents had sin0ed
and were driven from Paradise, in their wan
derings they came upon the burning sands Of
Arabia. Their feet we're blistered and sore,
and weary and sOrrowful they sank down upon
the earth and were lost in sumber. While
they lay there, an angel passed by, and pity
ing their desoate and lonely condition, seat.
tered seeds of trees and flowers about
them as they slept, and then went on his way.
By-and by, Satan in his wandering up and
down the earth, passed the way, and looking
upon the seepers, said: adam know, and
Eve know, and these burning sands know
but looking at the seeds, he said, What are
these?' And not knowing what they were, he
thought it best to cover them out Of sight; SO,
with his Cloveu foot, he covered them With
earth. Presently they took root and sprang
up; and when our first parents awOke they
found themselves in the midst of beautiful
oasis; there we're green trees waving over
their heads, and flowers and fruits around
them, and everything was beautiful. So the
enemies of freedom have been covering up the
seeds of liberty until they have taken root
down deep in the soil, and are now springing
forth ready to bear fruits and flowers in abund-
ance, so that we shall soon find green oasis
where there was nought but burning sands.

ANNA LEE.


When l sit at eyentide
Calling those who long since died;
Watching in the silent room
PhantOms wanderingin It's gloom
Opening gently in the night
Memory's leaves, both dark and bright
Then, like ripping waters flow
Then, like music soft and low
Like the dying, wailing year,
Falling sadly on my ear,
Down from yonder clouds to me
Comes the voice Of Anna lee.
And unto the past turn,
While my very heartstrings burn,
And within that shadOwed land,
Mid bright-eyed cherub band,
Reckoning from their mids see
The pale hand ofAnna Lee,
Pointing to me long ago,
When beneath the sunbeam's glow.
Leaping o'er the streamlet's tide,
Bounding through the meadow wide,
Plucking blossoms by the way,
Drsami Ig life was ever gay,
Oft, together wandered we,
l., child, and Anna Lee.
And we wandered hand in hand
Thro' the realms of bright dream-land:
Weaving in loom of light
Hopes of Heaven, all, all too bright;
For there came shadOwed ray
Like the clouds at close Of day;
And its darkeped folds beneath;
Yielding up the sinless breath
While her soul, filed from above,
With uDfOlded dreams Of love,
Passed through golden gates Of even
To promised, endless Heaven;
Thus, our Savior's face to see,
Fled from earth sweet Anna Lcel
When the leaves Of autumn surge,
When the lone breeze walls its dirge,
When the earliest buds of spring
Der her grave sweet incense fling,
When the distant waters chime
Comes like sound of angels rhyme,
b.. When the birds tril forth their gee,
Resteth low, dead Anna Lee.
Simmer blossom, pure and fair,
Bloom to win her spirit there
fE While the silver showers lave
With their tears her silent grave;
And within the shadowed night,
In the chilly, pale moonlight,
Just before the star-beams Zee;
Seek then sweet Anna Leel A
