PRECEPT AND PRACTICE.

Horace Greeley, 10 his late address al
Buffalo, says: "Farmers often show g
foolish ambition to enlarge their farm.
by purchasing those Of their neighbours
or as people sometimes express ii, they
wish 10 own all the land that joins
them" -
If | am rightly informed, Mr.. Greeley
purchased small farm in Winchester
county, Two or three years ago, since
which he has shown fair share Of the
ambition he speaks Of to enlarge, by
making three or four new purchases
He was bounded on the south road
first; then he bought out TO west road,
and thinking TO be satisfied he bull, a
stout stone wall for division forever with
his mex, neighbor. Tha, is now in the
middle of the farm. He could not fes.
easy until he had extended his line "out
TO the road, ION that side also. He will
probsbly be like all American farmers,
never satisfied till he gets "out TO the
road in every direction. .... ...
Again he says: "Nolhing can exceed
the folly OF q young man who might be
Independent aud prosperous at home,
going to city and soliciting employment
in store, and working thirteen houls a
day for his mere board, and the privilege
Of sleeping in II garrett"
Jus, what Horace Greedy did, substi.
tuting printing Office lor store, in which
MI. Greedy has by life Of incessan, toll,
combihedwith good sense and good luck
worked himself into q position coveted
by all young men Of any ambition and
notwithstanding his caution, and not.
withstandiug that thousand fail where
one succeeds, they will still be guilty o!
the folly o. moving TO cities, until nature
ceases TO make men sregarious.

The Missouri Address

I'eiWH this week lay before our reader,
an Address TO the People Of the United
..Ststss. ,Gsncd by some Of the leading
xnep cof the State Of Missouri. W.
shink II will undeceive the most stupid
mind as 10 tho original intent and design
Of the Kansas Nebraska bill, and as to
ade intcnt Of a'large and active faction
in Missouri, that now have the affairs OF
Kansas within their keeping.
We very much doubt whether the
Kansas difficulties will be adjusted be.
lore-,hc next Presidentisl election. "a
This demand on the part of the slave.
holding politicians to extend slavery in.
10 Free Territory. must now be openly
met, and firmly but calmly resis,ed.-
The principle Of the Ordinance Of 1881
must be applied to all the territories Of
the Union, before iruc frnternal feeling
csa exist between the North and the
South. We believe that the people Of
the South are true TO the Union, and that
they will never be forced into measures
forits dissolution so long as the North
stands upon the State Rights doctrine Of
the Democracy, which secures to the
Slaveholding States all their consltu.
tional Rights. L.

true American as the Ark Of the Gov

TO show how they will "rule America"
But this kind Of Americanism is to-day

stated that Austin A. King. late Governor of
Missouri, and one Of the Committee, declined
to affix his signature to the address; but the
special reason is not given. 1t is possible that
Gov. King will hereafter Set out his objections.
The gentlemen signing the address are we'll
known to the people Of the State. Mr.. Nap
ton was for Many years on the Bench of the
Supreme Court. Sterling Price is the present
Governor. Mr.. Oliver is a member Of Con-
gress And Mr.. Woodson is lawyer of dis.
junction. And these gentlemen represent a
large and respectable Convention which as.
sembled at Lexington on 18th CT July last.
We do not, however, believe that all the
statements of this address must, as stated by
paper in 81. Louis, ''receive the endorsement
OF the people of the United States, or the Uni.
on will be at an end" We may therefore take
occasion to review some Of its positions at an
early day.
