The Strength Of Slavery.

One part ofMr. Bakers speech at the
recent American State Council is worthy
OF especial consideration. He said
The administrations of Polk and Pierce
have built up the slave.power. 1t was
the Irish vote of New York which cleo
ted Polk it WIS the foreign vote bought
up in the country that put Pierce in the
chair. Asaa onti-s drery man declare
the param 'unt question to be American
ism. BY cutting short foreign influence
we strike blow at the great tool OF the
slave power. the Democratic party.
As to the paramount question, we can
not place freedom second to anything.
but we think NJ. Baker shows too that
Americarism should be united with it
Those who attempt to weigh the relative
value of the two. with view Of entirely
disregarding one ofthem, arc in our opin-
ion short-sightcd and suicidal. The two
wills are united, and AN efficient opposi-
ton to one involv.s hostility to the
other Lo~el citizen.

From long account of one Of those

which VIC find in the "CoIumbid Gd:ette'

Horn being intoxicate d, assaulted the man

his friends commenced beating Garherty !;
and Garhcrty shot at Horn and missed,
the ball passing under Horns arm, and
taking effect in Mr. Jarvis breast. Con-
stern ,tion seized all parties. Mr.. Jarvis
was conveyed to Mullln and William's
stable and physicians sent for. Garhefty
was taken to the Jail, and the pc pie
wished to have HIM dealt with by Judg
Lynch, but he was got to the jail, with

Trust in God.

One beautiful evening in summer q

stranger stepped out and direcoed the
landlord to feed his horse. The last rays
Of the setting sun were visible onthe aeccy
clouds, and IN the vane OF an Anticipated
church which stood on the opposite side
OF the way. The stranger looked about
him for few moments. and then di-
rec'cd his steps to the church. that he

viewed the grassy beds beneath which the
IONS Of other years lay silently resting
from want. and toll, and pain. While he
was reading the various inscriptions on
IN tomb stones. his attention was drawn
TO a corner of the church yard by the
sobs OF little child. He went immedi.

grave. A piece OF hard bread was be.
tween them. The sir M er being sensible

Che grave and inquired into the cause OF
their distress. The it'll. boy, Whose
name was Henry, began to tell him that
his sister Mary was naughty. and would
not eat the piece of bread he had begged
for her. She interrupted her brother
here, an told the man that she had eaten
come bread yesterday, but her brother
had eaten none since the day before, and
she wanted him to eat this.
The boy then proceeded to tell the
stranger, that about a year ago his father
left the village and went to sell and in 4
storm he was drowned. And poor mo.
