GREAT IS SLAVERY. The slavo case recent
ly tried at Cincinnati o., Of which we gave
some account, furnishes another illustration Of
the extent to which slavery rules this country.
The colored woman was from Kentucky, and
after fair trial was pronounced FREQ by an
Ohio State Court Immediately after that
decision she was seized by U. s. Marshal,
and dragged before u. s. Commissioner, on
tho charge of being a fugitive slave. Tho
Marshal, having hid the woman away, and
failed to produce her on writ of habeds cor
pus issued by State Judge, was in conse-
quenco of this refusal committed to Jail as
guilty of contempt. The kidnappers we're
frightened at these vigorous proceedings and
the slave catching Commissioner who had is
sued the warrant, very speedily came to the
conclusion that the claim was unfounded and
that the woman was free. The next thing was
to get the slave hunting Marshal out Of Jail.
For that purpose application was made to
Judge Mclean of tie Supreme Court Of the
U. s.. who having brought before him tho
chop fallen Marshal on a writ of hdbcds COZ
pus, discharged him from Jail on the ground
that he had been improperly committed by the
State Judge, and that he was fully justified BY
the Commissioned warrant in arresting and
holding tho woman.

NEWSPAPER PATRONS.

This being called patronage is q queer
thing. It 10 very correctly remarked By some
one, that it is composed Of as many colors as
the rainbow, and 10 as changeabls as the huss
Of the chameleon.
One man subscribes for paper, and pay
for !, In advance---he goes home and reads it
the year ronnd, with proud satisfaction that it
the price, and pays for 1t. This is patron
age. M ss--sa, u
Another nan says, "Put my name on your
list of subscribers" and goes off without as
much as having said pay once. He asks you
to advertlse:-but says nothing about paying
for it, Timo passes-your patience is exhaus-
ted and you dun him, he flies into passion
perhaps he pays you--perhaps not.
Another man has been q subscriber some
time. He becomes tired of you and wants
change. Thinks he wants another journal.
Gives it up, and you bad name. One of his
papers returns to you marked "rofused. -
Paying for it is among the last Of his thoughts.
After a time you look over his account, and
send him bill of "balanco due" Buthe does
not pay for it--treats you with silent con-
tempt. This too, some call patronage.
Another man lives near you-never took
your paper-is too small-don't like the editor
don't like lite principles-too whggish, to,
democratic, its lenders too strobg-tales too
dry, or vice versa, or something else--yet goes
regularly to bis neighbors and reads II, finds

THE sHAYER,s soL1LoouY.

To shave, or not to shave the question Is,
Whether tits better on the human quiz.
To let accumulatinn of our hair al ss.
Cover the chin and lips which now are bare;
o to continue still to scrapc away
The hirsute ornament from day to day
To lather, shave, perchonce to cash the face?
Ay, there's the rub for, in this latter case,
What m s'rys our's 'Tis this must give us pause
Aud make us rather let alone our jaws,
Then by continuance in the barb'rous use
Cut. scratch, and lacerate then like the deuce.
For if it actually was the case,
That nature never meant the human face
To be so teased and tortured as it is
II sol say, why then what business
Have mortals virtually to cry out
That Nature knows not what she was about
Why, since the beard was evidently meant
To grow, should men be seemingly intent
On trying TO prove that Nature was Ounce.
And did not know her trade Why not at once
Pluck QUIT the eyebrows and extract the nails,
And shave the heads of females ond of males7
Strange tis that men should worship fashions, so
As to be willing thus to undergo
The pains of shaving, rather than permit
Moustoche and beard t. grow as they think ft
How singular thatmon should still delight
In torturng their faces, when they might
Themselves their comfort, ease and health obtain
By vowing they will never shave again
But It's the dread OF rdcule and scorn
Makes the fou fashion easy TO be born,
Thus custom of US all doth towards make
And for lhissavage custom. then we take
The trouble and the pains our charms to now,
Because it is The fsshior to ios'
Boz thus cur chns will soon no more hope
BE laihor'd Der with the pale suds of soap,
Soon shall noustoche and beard o"ce more on all
Der chius veg merrily,i in street and hall!

PROTEST
While we acknowledge our mutual affection.
by publicly assuming the sacred relati, nship
of husband and wife. vet in justice to ourselves
and great principle, we deem it duty to de-
clare that this act on our part implies sane
ton of, nor promise Of voluntary obedience to,
such of the present laws Of marriage as refuse
TO recognize the wife as an independent ration
al heiug. while they confer upon the husband
an injurious and unnatural superiority. invest
ing him with legal powers which no honorable
man would exercise, and which no man she uld
possess.
We protest especially against the laws which
give % the husband
/. The custody of his wifo's person.
2. The exclusive control and guardianship
Of their children
3. The sole ownership of her personal, and
use Of her real estate. unless previously settled
upon her. or placed in the hands of trustees,
as in the case of minors, lnnatcs and idiots:
4. The absolute right to the product Of her
industry;
8. Also against laws which give to tho wild
over so much larger and more permanent an
interest in the property of his diseased wife,
than they give to the widow in that of her
deceased husband.
6. Finally. against the whole system by which
"the legal existence of the wife suspended dur
ing marriage" so that in most States she neith-
er has legal part in the choice of her resi-
denco, nor can she make a will, nor sued or be
sued IN her own name. nor inherit property.
We believe that personal Independence and
equal human righs can never he forfeited, cx-
cept for crime: that marriage should be an
equal and permanent partnership. and so re.
cogDized by law: that until it is so recognized,
married partners should provide against the
radical injustice ofpresent laws by every means
in their power
We believe that whore dom site difficulties
arise no appeal should be made to legal tribu.
nails under existing laws but that AL difficult.
ties should be submitted TO the equitable ad-
justment ofarbitrators mutually chosen.
Thus reverencinv law, we enter our earnest
protest against rules and customs which are
unworthy ofthe name. since they violate Justice

CULTURE OF THE ERAsPBERRY.-The following
account of the management and profits of one
OF the most extensive and successful panta-
tions of the Red Antwerp raspberry in the
Union, lat Milton. Ulster Co. awe copy from a
late number ofthe american .4gricuituyisf.
Mr. Hallock cultivates this superior fruit with
great success Before setting the canes he
plows deep and sub coils the ground. and high
ly manures every year with a compost Of muck
and stable dung, applied to. them when cover
ed up IN the winter, or early spring. Two or
three are set in every bill and these arc four
feet apart each way. The ground Is kept we'll
stirred with the cultivator during the growing
season, and clear Of all weeds with the hoe.
To protect the canes through the winter, he
covers them two or three inches deep with
earth This is done by plowing the ground
the way II is desired the plants shonld lie. two
burrows between the rows: then bend the canes
gently down from one hill to the next. and
cover with spade or hoe, being careful the
leave the ground lowest between the rows. to
prevent the water from settling around them.
asthey require 10 be kept dry. In the spring,
as soon as tho ground becomes settled and
dry, the canes are carefully raised from the
ground with the tines ofa manure fork and the
ground is then plowed between the rows at q
right angle to the way the canes lay In IL du-
ring the winter, so as to level and smooth it,
Stakes about five feet long are then driven in
each hill, and the canes tied close TO them. y
Mr. .Hallock has cultivated this kind Of rasp-
berry on the same ground in his garden for Elk
teen years. and they do as we'll nov there as
ever. The average yield is about 5000 pint
baskets season; and they sell in market from
IL to IA cents each, net which leaves from
$500 to 300 per acre. t cF~
There is little danger Of the New York mar
ket being overstocked with the delicious fruit;
for the desire to obtain IL here increases faster
