The Case Stated

The Democratic Greed That at the time Of
forming Constitution, the people shall, for
themselves form just such a constitution as is
agreeable to themselves, having no other restric-
ton than that placed by the Federal Constitu-
ton, to wit: That the constitution shall en-
brace republican form of government. Every
one may thus come in as a free State no matter
whe ther above or below So 3O'.
Tile Black Republican CteeA,-That no State
whatever, hereafter shall come in with slavery,
even though the people be unanimous in favor Of
it, and the State shall lie far below $500, and
the constitution be according to the Federal
Constitution, Any Constitution not prohibiting
slavery Shall be sent back to the people, no mat
ter in what latitude and how unanimous soev-
er the people may be in its favor. Which Of
these two issues show most moderation, most
Justice?

HaTisville on last Saturday. HAttOn says 800
and Lewton not quite so many.
II has been announced fora couple Of weeks
through the RepaJ1iogH, that tremendous pole

sent up here to get block and tackle, but then
they couldn't work it. Everything was in con-

in Short Creek did not know what to do. They
couldn't raise the pole. But right in the midst
of their CONSERVATION, great relief came N the
person Of the Prosecuting Attorney of this

A Freedom shrieker sold -

Our readers will recollect an account publish
ed some time since of a stirring appeal made BY
Henry Ward Beecher, in his own Church, On
Sunday, in behalf Of young slave girl nom
the South, and called upon his audience to raise
one thousand two hundred dollars to enable 81
rah to purchase her freedom. So affecting was
the appeal that the ladies who had no money
with them took off their rings and bracelets and
threw them upon the plate The required sum
was raised, and the girl was petted and Ieasted
by the church, until her habits became more
than suspicious, and appearances grew stronger
every day that she had become decidedly bad.
Lately the girl was missing together with GER
tain goods and chattles belonging to her friends
and correspondent of the New York News
writes to that paper that Mr.. Beecher has re-
Gently received information from her late owner
that Sarah, tired Of the dull life imposed upon
her in the neighbolhood Of her Abolition asso-
ciates, had returned to him, was quite happy,
and was getting along ''as well as well as could
be expected" under the circumstances She
had raised for her master the one thousand two
hundred dollars, and he had saved his credit and
his slave at the same time. A good speculation
for him, but it must be rather sore subject for
those ladies of Beecher's congregation, whose
diamonds so readily dropped at his Shrek for

The Dinerence.

In. the apportionment Of representatives
among the slave holding States, five niggen are
equivalent to three white men. That is an aw-
ful thing. But in the appOrtiOnment of repre-
sentatves and direct taxes among the non-slave-
holding States, five niggers are equivalent to fee
white men. That however is a "mere circum-
stance, not worth shrieking about.
