\ Coon MAxlM.-The more quietly and
peacably we get on, the better for our neigh
bors. In nine cases out of ten, the wisest
policy is ifo man cheats you, quit dealing
with him; if he is abusive, quit his compa-
ny; if he SANDERS YOU, conduct yourself so
that nobody will believe him, No matter
who lie is, or how he misuses you, the wis
sest way is generally to let him alone, for
there is nothing better than this calm, quiet
way of dealing with tie wrongs we meet
with.

A Hard Hit.

Gen. John Mcqueen, Of South Carolina.
in reply TO an impertnent letter from the
inpudent and hypocritical Abolitionis,,
Lewis Tappan. recommends him. instead Of
spending his crocodile tears upon well-fed
Southern slaves, to relieve the crowds Of
INDECENT white mothers in New York, who
make shirts for six cents piece, whilst
their little ones are shivering and dying for
want of proper raiment and food. He also
recommends Tappan TO bestow his benevo-
ence on those described in recent address
to the New York public by the Rev. L. M.
Pease, the benevolent head Of the Five
Points Mission establishment, as follows;
"Five winters-dark and dreary win-
ters--have we spent upon the Five Points,
surrounded by want and suffering, by beg.
/ gary, shame and crime. The fact Of living
| here is not in ITSELF so hard, as the lack Of
means 10 supply the wants of the worthy
poor, and to afford shelter and protection 10
the homeless. We have been compelled,
by our relation to these people, TO witness
little feet treading the icy pavements, until
the nails have been frozen from their toes !
to see their skeleton fingers reached out TO
us, and hear their cry for bread, when we
had no bread to give.
awe have been compelled to leave the
widow with her newborn babe upon her
bosom, friend!ess and shelterless upon the
street, because we had no shelter for her !;
to see boys ripen into criminal manhood, and
girls ito wanton womanhood. We have
been compelled to hear hundreds Of unior-
D tunates beg in vain, even in the name of
our Saviour, for an opportunity to reform,
and when denied, give up in despair, and
afterwards die hopeless; and all for want
of little of that Of which thousands are
prodigGl. This is hard"

A Few Plain Truths, Plainly Told.


TIE representave preporderance of the
Free States is owing to foreign immigration
the hasty manufacture of citizens out
of the crude and raw materiul-thus in
crensing the elective power of the North at
a rapid and dangerous rate. This is one
reason why Southern men should adopt the
National American creed, cardinal prin-
cipal of which is--the imposition Of cap
itation tax upon thc:heads of immigrants de-
parted 10 this country. Such a captation
tax, long advocated by the "Old Guard J"
Native Americans, would shut off the in
creasing representative power of the North;
which shutting off would not grieve the T.
Mon loving Americans, and would trouble
none but sboIitionists or disunionists, and
political power seeking demagogues. South
ern men will perceive then, that their
friends of the North look to them for Coop
oration in the advocacy of capitatIon tax.
The pro-slavery men of the South must
join issue with the anti-immigrant men of
the North, there being no jealousy or heart
burnings between the men of the Union on
the question of slavery, while union of
interests regarding the stopping of immi-
grafton should lead them to operate in har-
mony. All the mechanics and working
men of the North will go with such a COM
bination en- masSe, because the working
class Of the North necessarily abhor the
companonship and competition of imported
cheap laborers. These may be counted a:
sure allies of any party whose efforts shal
be exercised for the suppression of immi
grafton. Only let it be known that thu

classes Of the North, for the enactment 0
