its gaudy rags, and monstrous vulture

SLAVERY AND KANSAS.

Mr. Howell Cobb, Of Georgia, has writ
ten letter on the present state of Nation
al politics, which we find copied with ap
proval in many of the Southern Democrat
ic prints This letter confirms the opin-
ion we have all along expressed, that the
extension of Slavery is to be the real issue
in the coming political campaign. The
81 e; fc point which it is to tuln, will be,
as Cobb says, the admission of Kansas as
a Slave State into the Union. If that
can be effected, the South is willing to re-
main in the Union and play the oyersoer
to its cringing Northern Slaves, but if
that cannot be effected, it will immediate
ly discharge them from its Keeping
Here are the identical words in which the
alternative is rendered:
"Thc admission of Kansas is the para
mount question of the day The position
taken by Georgia in her last Legislature is
that no man is worthy of political fellow
ship who denies the RIG ght of Kansas and
all other Territories to come into the Union
with Or without Slavery, as their people
may determine. This is the doctrine of
the Democratic Party of this State and of
the sound National Democrats of the north.
Upon this basis the National Democratic
party will stand III the coming contest
In her ranks there will be no place for
Free Soilers and Abolitionists. The man
who denies this doctrine. should and will
be deemed unworthy Of fellowship in the
Democratic ranks. Presenting as the Ma.
tional Democracy do this Catholic platform
to the country, the question comes home
to every Southern man as to his individua
duty in Patmttcr. If we desire the ad
mission of Kansas and seek to establish OIL
firm and lasting foundation the grea

admission, why should we not unite will

THEPHILosOPHY OF RAIN.

To understand the philosophy of beauti-
tul and often sublime phenomenon, SO Of
ten witnessed, and so very essential to the
existence Of plants and animals, few facts
derived from observation and long train
of experiments, must be remembered:
l. Were the atmosphere here, every
where and at all times of o uniform tenn
perature, we should never have rain, Or hail,
or snow The water absorbed by it in evap-
oration, frcn the sea and the eartLs sur
face, would descend in an imperceptible
vapor, Or cease to be absorbed by the air
when it was once fully saturated
2 The absorbing power of the atmos-
pherc, and consequently its capacity to re-
tain humidity, is propOrtionatcly greater in
warm than in cold air. The air near the
surface of the earth is warmer than it is in
the region of the clouds. The higher we
ascend from the earth the colder do we find
the atmosphere, Hence the perpetual snow
on very high mountains in the hottest eli
mate.
Now, when from continued evaporation,
the air is highly saturated with vapor,
tho it be invisible and the sky cloudlcss, if
its tempera ure is suddenly reduced, by
cold currents descending from above, Or
rushing from q higher to lower latitude,
its capacity to retain moisturcis diminished,
clouds are formed, and rain is the result.
1t condeuscs, it cools; and like sponge
filed with water and compressed, pourS out
the water which its diminished capacity can.
not hold,
How singular, and yet how simple is
the philosophy of rain. What but OmniS
cience could have devised such an admira-
ble arrangement for watering the earth.
