THE RIGHT TRACK-Cassius M. CLAW and
Mr.. Fee, gave notice that they would speak on
the subject of Slavery in Kentucky. They
were warned not to do SO, but needed it not
did speak and were not molested. The LOU
isville Journal thus alludes to the matter: We
think that such opinions as those of Mr.. Clay
and Mr.. Fee are wrong and Of mischievous
tendency, but we rejoice to see Mr.. Clay vim
dicating fcarlessly the freedom of speech
Emancipationists have right to speak their
opinions publicly in Kentucky so long as they
speak them only to white men. We abhor
mob law, and we thank every man, who, like
Cassius NJ. Clay, has the manlincss to set it at
Defiance

A Revolving SIGHT.-On Sunday last,
while walking down St. Anthony St., we wit
messed a scene at once revolving and beastly in
the extreme. 1t was two men quarreling over
q couple of collins that they were conveying to
a house where reposed the bodies OF two per-
sons recently dead. Such swearing and ours
ing-such blasphemy-it has never been our
10, to listen to--we hope it may never be again.
One thing which made the scene doubly revolt
ing, was the fact that one Of the deceased
friends had only been ill twelve hours. Thus
one hour we recognize person in apparently
perfect health, the next we are called to behold
the lifeless body, and to witness the heathenish
scene of two men quarreling over the collins
A prohibitory liquor law is wanted in Louis
vile, Ky. The Journal says: Quite num-
Ger OF men and women were arrested last eve-
ming for drunkenness.
EeS@ We might with great propriety state
that prohibtory liquor law is wanted in ST.
Paul, but we could not say as the Journal does,
number Of men and women were arrested !;
for such thing is seldom thought of here.
Both men and women are allowed to be drunk
on the streets night and day, and often to the
great annoyance of sober people, yet the au-
thorities pay the matter no attention.
ST.. PAUL AND ITS PROXIMITY TO EASTERN
CIrIEs.-Many people have the idea that St.
Paul is almost out of the world, and that it
takes from two to three weeks to reach it.
Such is not the case, in proof of which we cite
the following:
DR.. Borup, the Banker, left ST. Paul, on Mon
day, the 9th, for the East He transacted i'm
portant business at Dubuque, Galena and Chi
cago, and Notwithstanding he was detained ten
hours by fog, reached home on Saturday
last, bringing with him $4,000, having been
absent .tfred days and fre hours. Our merchants
can visit New York, transact their business and
return in seven days.! Think of that, We
croakers.

A Bit of Advice.


Have you enemies! Go strait on, and
don't mind them. Ifthey get in your way,
walk round them, regardless of their spite.
A man who has no enemies is seldom goodfor
anything-he is made Of that kind ofmater.
ial which is SO easily worked that every
one has hand in it. A sterling character
-one who thinks for himself, and speaks
what he thinks, is alwsys sure to have enc.
MES. They are ns necessary to him as
fresh air; they keep him alive and active.
A celebrated character, who was surround
eddy enemies, used to remark: "They are
sparks which, ifyou do not blow will 60 out
Of themselves" Let this be your feel
ing, while endeavoring to live down the
scandal of those who are bitter against you
If you stop to dispute, you do but as they
desire, and open the way for more abuse.
Let the poor fellows: talk-there will be
reaction, if you perform but your duty, and
hundreds who were once alienated from
you, will fock to you and acknowledge their
error.
