Democratic Consistency.
ORLEANS.

Mr.. ED1ToR,-Probably many ofyonr
readers do not get the reading of papers
of the so-called Democratic party; hence,
are not aware of the boldness of their
defence of the slave institution" of the |
south. Democrats of this town, as else
where, claim that they are as strongly
opposed TO slavery extension as the Re-
publicans can be. Yet their hypocrisy
will show itself so plainly that it is won
der that they do not discover it them
selves. The following extracts will show
the beauty of Democratic consistency
In an article signed Brief" in the
Campaign Post" of Sept. 18th, the
writer asks and answers the following
question Who wants any more slave
territory? Nobody here at the North,
certainly This, sir, would look very
WE'LL, if it was either honest in sentiment,
or true in fact. But after few sentences
the writer shows the cloven foot in the
following language, viz: The blacks at
the South must and will increase. So
long as the slave institution covers that
increase it will seek new territory equally
with the whites, but not, perhaps, with
the same energy. Both will extend nat
urally, and hence, to that extent irresist-
IDLY"
Here, then, is Democratic argument
in favor of throwing open neao territory
! for slavery extension, in proportion to the
increase of the "blacks of the South,
- and very effectively has the present adj.
Q ministration carried out the doctrine O
the above argument, in throwing oper
the vast domains of the west to suppl.
the new territory upon which to continue
till dooms-day, this same increase 0
blacks, under the slave institution" >
The writer says that the Republican
do not claim to be abolitionists." This i
not true, for it is their aim to accomplish
this desirable result; not however, by in
~ terfering with the institution by direc
legislation, but by the only Legitimate
, means within their power, viz, by limit
Vi ing it to its present area, that in time
y may diminish by its own innate rotten
ness, for unless it can have new TERRITORY
it cannot support itself, but must eventu
ally be abolished and give place to fire
labor.

THE PASS OF DEATH.


!, was a nassew pass,
Watered with human tears,
For Death had kept the outer gate
Almost SIX thousand years.
And the ceassless tread Of worlds iees
Was ever in my ears
Thron-ing, jostling, hurying BY,
As If they we're only born TO die.
A stately king drew near,
This n.rrow path to tread,
Around him hung gorgeous robe,
And a crown was on his head;
But Death, with look Of whitening scorn,
Arrested him and said,
ain humber dress must the king draw near,
For the crown and purple are useless here"
Next came msn Of wealth,
And his eve was proud and bold,
And be bore in his hand lengthy scroll,
Telling Of sums untoldi
Bat Death, who careth not for rank,
Careth as little for gold
- Here that scroll cannot allow,
For the gold of the richsstis powerlsss now"
Another followed fast,
And book was in his hand,
Filled with the Clashes Of burning thought
That are known IN many land;
Bat the child Of genins quAiled to hear
Deaths pitiless demand
81 Here that book cannot enter with thee,
For the bright fash ofgenius is nothing to me.
Next came maiden fair,
With that eye so deeply bright,
That stirs within you strange sweet care
Should you meet on a summer night;
But Death, ere the gentle maid passed thro',
Snatched away its Light
Beauty is NY power in the world, . ne saith,
But what can it do in the Pass Of Deaih? ?"
A youth of sickly mien
Followed in thoughtful mood,
Whose heart was filled with lore to God
And the early brotherhoodi
Death felt he could not quench the heart
That lived for others good
"Iowu,' cried he, /" the power Of love,
/ must let it pass to the realms above!'

The question of Biennial Sessions

The question Of Biennial Sessions of
the legislature will not, we trust, occupy
much Of the TIM orthe Convention. Taey
were invented 30 roach apracticsl poins in
economy. but the economy thus far has
been decidedly "ovsr the loft" They,
are voted a failure, every where east, and
if the older states cannot manage their
public. affairs without an "Annual' re-
view and repair, Of worn out or insufficient
laws, and the enactment of new ones to
meetthe necessities Of a people having
line of policy almost stationary, how ca n
q young, growing, changing, progressive
state like Iowa hope, with two-yearly ses-
sions, to provide for the emergencies
that her rapid Improvement evolves?
Our interests want constant attention and
more money is lost to the state and peo- =
pie by neglect Of Legislative attention than
would pay theexpenses of two sessins per
year. u1...o. ..rl.,, ILL., 1j'

we expect to see them reformed out of the

them is snperfuous. ~'-''1' --'3 32. I
We remember to have read speech
delivered in Congress by Quincy Adams
on a proposition to reduce the House to
ha!fits membership. Mr. Adams said, that
the more Representatives the people had,
and the more frequently they were in ses-
sion, the more likely each portion of the
confederacy was, to receive proper atten-
ton. Hequafifed this remark, by the
provision that deliberative bodies should
not be olarge as to be unwicldy, in which
case they only darkend COUNSEL
The abstract Democracy of the Greeks
made every man his own representative,
and under this system the sessions never
closed; but such a system, if impractica-
BILE then, in country not larger than
Clayton County, would be beyond the
conception of Absurdity here. v
