Foray Against Yankee Property
From the Richmond Whig.

From the Richmond Wing.
If they the North rob and steal our ne.
groes under color of law, We may, and we
shall be recreant to our best interests, if we
do not speedily take redress into our own
hands. Citizens of Pennsylvania, no doubt
have large amount Of property-goods,
wares and merchandise, and perhaps, some
heavy debts, within the limits of Virginia.
Let the lao lay hold of every particle that
can be found in the Commonwealth-and
let express provision be made, that no Of
icer shall be required to swear to support
the Federal Constitution, where those
States are concerned who disregard that
instrument. We are against disunion. =
We much prefer carrying on this sort of
system OF reprisals with our Yankee breth-
rem. There as plenty of Yankee property
IN the South at this time to reimburse as
for all the negroes they have stolen from US.
One general, comprehensive, sweeping stat
ute in every Southern State, will reach the
whole of it. Let US of the South come to
love Yankee property with the same ardor
that they love Southern propertyp
That is as the North will not recognize
the existence of Slavery, but insists that
when slaves are brought here by their
masters they become free. The North is
abused for stealing" negroes; and yet the
Richmond Wing thinks the South should
retaliate by stealing" Northern goods,
wares and merchandise" Shareholders

A Hor PLACE The Rev. Mr.. Shannon
President Of the Missouri University, says
slavery is alike sanctioned by the Bible and
the laws of nature. Or this platform be is
willing "to do or die" A Methodist edi-
tor of the North says in reply: "He may
do as he pleases, but we should not hike
to have a reverend clergyman die With
such views. He would be likely to go
where the thermometer is never as low aS
90 deg. in the shade"

The Edinburgh and North British Reviews,
two of the leading literary and political peri
odicals in Great Britain, have come out in
favor of a prohibitory law. This is re-
markabe evidence that the course of prohib-
ition is fast coming into favor with all the
leading spirits of the day. Ten years more

the suppression of intemperance, only the

wise and good men now on that side, but
they are deserving it rapidly. 1t will not do.

Railroad Celebration.

The suggestion which we some time
since threw out in regard to a Railroad
Celebration here, has been adopted by the
proper authorities, and the Both day Of
May named a. the time. We understand
that large number of invitations have al
ready been sent &c distinguished gentle
men and editors in various parts Of the
country. Every preparation is being made,
onethe part of the city authorities and cit
liens generally, to make the visit Of our
quests all that it should be. And as the
time chosen is the most delightful Of the
year, the city and country unusually
healthy, it is likely to prove, both to citi
gems and strangers, a season Of unusual
pleasure and social enjoyment. There will
q . matter Of course, be large draft upoi
the hospitality Of Burlingtonians. Ou1
Hotels, owing to the large travel, are con
Tstantly crowded, and will be inadequate t.
the accommodation of the numerous guest
likely to visit us on that accession Blu
there is disposition on the part of cit
liens generally, to open wide their doors
/. and the draft upon their hospitality, how
ever large, will be fully honored. Com
mittees will be appointed who will see tina
oil are comfortably provided for and hos
pitably entertained. The only wish ez
pressed is that there shall be full an
general attendance on the part Of invite
guests. ~

The bill which has passed both houses
Of the Massachusetts, Legislature, entitled
an "act to protect the rights and Liberties
Of the people Of the Commonwealth" and
in effect to nullify the operations of the
Fugitive Slave Law, provides for the pun
ishment by fine and Imprisonment of all
those who shall be instrumental in trans
muting freeman into slave, whether by
sending into slavery any man who has al
ways been free, or by returning one who
has escaped, either to person other than
slave master from whom he escaped, or
to any one to whom his "service Of labor"
is not "due," and to enable the alleged
slave, who is injured by such unjust rendi-
tor, to recover damages therefor. The
tenth, eleventh and twelfth sections de-
prive Of all State Offices, the man who
grants q certificate for the return Of an al
legged slave, and the attorney who acts as
counsel for the claimant, incapacitating the
former from hereafter holding any Office of
trust, honor or profit, under the laws of
the Commonwealth, and the latter from
thereafter practicing in the Courts Of the
Stats.

2 According to the Louisville Journal that
city is entirely run round by the recently
oonstxucted railroads through Ohio and

has left the Ohio river, and all the impor-

Suffering in consequence; while inland
cities, which few years since had moth

suddenly awakened to life and energy.

pea- The pay of the French soldier is
one cent per day. Out of that munifcent
endowment he must provide himself with
thread, needles, &c., to keep his uniform
in repair. Then he must replace allthings
lost or spoiled while in his possession, from
the army stores. He is furnished with one
pair of pantaloons, and one pair OF shoes
per year, and one coat every two years
On leaving service at tie end Of seven
years, the gun, sabre and coat are taken
from him, and whatever is left he is enti-

OLIVER BASS LIN. !,

By II. w. LOSGfEj.LoWs
In the Valley Of the Wire
Still is seen an ancient mill,
With its gab'cs quaint and queer,
And beneath the window si.l,
On the stone
These word. alone:
ssOliver Basselin lies here
Far above it, on the steep,
Ruined stands the old chateau;
Nothing but the donjon keep
LEI, for shelter or for show.
Its vacant eyes
Stare at the skies,
Stare at the valley green and deep.
Onee a convent, cd and brown,
Looked, but ali 1t looks no more,
From the ncisi boring hillside DON
On the Rushing anu the rear
OF the stream
Whose sunny CLEAN
Cheers tie little Norman town.
In that daiksome mill Of stone,
To the waters dash and din,
Car, less, humble and unknown,
Sang the poet Basscln
Songs that fill
That ancient mill
With Il spIendor of its own.
Never feeling Of unrest
Broke tho pleasant dream ha dren med;
Only made to be his nest
All the lovely valley seemed;
No eesile
OF soaring higher
Stirred or alttered i'll his breast.
True his songs were not divine
Were not songs of that high art,
Which, rs winds do in the pine,
Find an answer in each heart;
But the mirth
Of this green earth
Laughed and leyeled in bis line.
From the ale house aid the inn,
Olenins on the narrow street,
Came the loud, conviyial din,
Singing and applause Of feet,
The laughing lays
That in those days
Sang tho poet Basseiin.
In the castle cased in steel,
knights, who fought at A gincourt,
Watched and waited, spur Oh heel;
But the poet sang, f,r sport,
Songs that rang
ADul0eT ciau z,
Songs that lowIier hearts could feel.
In the convent, clad in gray,
s. the monks in lonely cells,
Paced the clio sters, knelt to pray,
And the pact heard their bells,
But his rhymes
Found other chimes,
Nearer to the earth than they.
Gone ara oil the barons bold,
Gone are all the knights and sqaircs,
Gone the abbot stern and cold,
And the broth lhuod of triars;
Not name
Remains to fame
From those IN uldcring days Of old
But the poets memory here
Of the landscape makes part;
Like the river, swift and clear,
Flows his song through many heart;
Haunting still
That ancieSt mill
In the Valley Of the Wire.
