Connected net with earth, its misery, It's STRIFE,

Delay thee not, exposed to worlds impending

Shun them as dangers great; and light and free,

NoTEs on THE MIssIssIpPI.--The story is IA
mar of the man who took passage in fiat
boat from Pittsburgh bound for New Orleans.
He passed many dreary, lstless days on his way
down the Ohio and Mississippi, and seemed TO be
Responding for want of excitement. Superficial
", he was quetand nofcnsiyc; practically, he
was perfectly goodnatured and kindly disposed.
In course of time, the craft upon which he was
a passenger put into Naboleon, in the State OF
Arkansas, ''for groceries" At the moment there
was general fight extending all along the front
of the town, which at that time consisted OF a
single house.
The unhappy passenger, after tdgetng about
and Jerking his feet up and down, as if he were
walking on hot bricks, turned to IL fused up spec
tator' and observed: .. d.. I.t rs. ...
Stranger, is this free fght?" ...T
The reply was prompt aud to the point
at ar, and if you wish to go in, don't stand
on ceremony"
The waytrer did Ego in," and in less time
than we can relate the circumstances he was lit
terally chawed up. Cropping his way down to
the fat, his hair gone, his eyes closed, his lips
swollen, and his face generally mapped out, y
he sat himself down on chicken coop and so
louuzed thus: -e.

it's a lively place, and the only one at which
have had any fun since left home"

A correspondent of the Christian Advocate
gives the following as Cassius NJ. Gays mode of
managing his audience in Kentucky. 1t is char
acterslic of that chivalrous and talented num-
HE sends an appointment to a given place TO
lecture al certain time; perhaps some OF the ma
tives will send word that he will not be allowed
to lecture there; he sends word that he will be
on hand and lecture there according to previous
notice. The time comes, great crowd is col
ected to hear the lecture or to see the mob; pres
emily the lecturer comes; he passes directly
through the crowd, and mounts the forum,
valves his hand for attention; all eyes are turned
toworls the speaker. He commences with a
firm, clear and decided tone ofvoice, the follow
ing remarks:
Gentlemen have few prelminaries to set
tie. previous TO entering upon the main subject
ofdiscusson ! want to make three short APP
peals to three classes Of persons, whereupon he
holds up a small Bible. There, gentlemen, says
he, is the great charter record OF human rights
on which all law and equality is based deserving
the name of law; this is my appeal to the rel-
gious portion of society, and lays it down on the
stand before him. Then he holds up the Consti-
tuition of the United States. There, gentlemen,
saws he, is the bond of our Union, the noble
Constitution of our glorious Republic, which
guarantees the freedom OF speech. This is my
appeal to gentlemen, to patriots, and true heart
ed Americans, and places it with the Bible be-
fore him. Then he puts his hand into his poch-
ct and haulS out an enormous siX-shootcr, every
barrel of which is loaded with powder and lead.
| This is my appeal to mobCcrats, and will blow
| its contents through the heart of the first man
who offers to lay hands on me to silence me in my
native Safe, or to gag free speech my pres
ence. This he also lays down upon the stand
| with his two former appeals, ready for action
then he commences a perfect storm against the
| peculiar institution, enough to wiring the sweat
| ont of old Kentucky from every pore. BY this
| time all are awed into submissive silence. Such
sir, is this celebrated nephew of Old Henry Clay
| in his own State. SGcceSs 10 his efforts May
he live to see the chains fall from every slave il
| his native land.
