Gen tine FsacA Track.

A few weeks ago the voice of the BLACK Deu'
ocracy' was all for war with England. The Pres
ident led off in hifa'utin style, in his aessage.-
The Clavton-Bulwer treaty, he said, must be en-
forced, as he understood it; the rights of the Cn-
ted States must be maintained ut all hazards, on
the PRINCIPLES of the Monroe doctrine-and more
to the same effect. His Washington backe r:
shouted in the same strain; and every frc-eatel
was bound to Kill an Englshman. Visions o
glory shot across their political horizon, hriiila
and luminous rs the Northern lights. But all Il
once, they were struck dumb, from Presidcn
down to tide-waitcr The voice ofwar ceased Il
be heard, and the noise of the fire-eaters dec
away to the cooling Of sucking doves. The Pres
ident's organ, the Uaion, now ridicules the ide;
of a collisions with Great Britain. The Charles
ION Mercury and Richmond Enquirer denounc'
in bitter language the very thought Of war. Tho
war tempest in II teapot" has so far subsidized Il
the White House, that it would not watt feather
or drown ily
The Arch Demon of Black Republicanism,
as the fire eaters call Senator Seward, has caused
this marvellous change TO come over the spirit
their dreams. He has made speech backing NJ
the President on the Central America question
promising to stand by him until the last. Britain
is driven into the Caribbean sea; and predicting
that in the event of Il war the Cinadas would
become American poSScSSonS, anu Hait "oHci
free States to the Union. Thcreupon the Fire
eaters smell very large rat. The war proiec
has an ugly look. It braods mischief to the "Di
vine Institution" Canada, forsooth! Abolition

Army landing 5o,o0n men at Charleston to turn

saws the Fire Eater.

no difficult matter, if horse has any pedigree
for his owner to procure it in legal form, an'
file an authenticated copy of it at my office
Then when Morgan" horse goes into neigh

in that neighborhood to make the enquiry o
me whether the pedigree of such horse is i

THE BIRrlI-PLACE OF WAsiIINGroN.--Mr Lew
is W. Washington, of Jefferson county, virginia,
son of the late Hon. George c. Washington, OF
MARYLAND, as heir of the estate, has rendered
to the State of Virginia, through Gov. Wise, the
title to sixty acres of land in WcstmorcIand
county, the site of the birthplace of George
Washington, and the house and graves OF his
rroccnitors in America. The condition OF the
Gift is. that the State shall cause the premises
TO be permanently enclosed by an Iron fence,
based on a stone foundation. and shall mark
the same by suitable and modest though sub
stantial, tablets, to commemorate for the rising
generation those noble spots The Governor
recommends the acceptance of the gift on the
terms proposed, and says an appropriation OF
two thousand dollars will be sufficient

LAWS OF NATURE GETTING SEcTioNAL-A Gin.
cnnati correspondent of the Boston Transcript
says the ice in the Ohio river is fourteen inches
thick; and the slaves in Kentucky, who are fully
aware tina. the laws of the state make it penal
offence for a tolman to allow them q passage
over and bridge within the limits of the state
and probably thinking that the proprietor of the
natural bridge, now existing between Ohio and
kentuchcy, is under particular obligation to
the s!ave-aoldiDg interests, have siezed upon the
occasion to make grand stampede.
1t is estimated that nearly 200 slaves have
escaped from bondage by crossing the Ohio ry-
er during the past month. Through the actyi-
ty and vigilance of the directors of the under
ground railroad, they have, with an unfortu-
nate exception, all been pat through"
As the law OF nature, which creates this insc-
curity 10 slave property, is clearly unconstitu-
tioaa', why does nos President Pierce recommend
its repeal, or get Nr. Attorney General Cushing
to give an opinion against its validity
Like the ant'-slavey Restriction in the Miss.
oufi Compromise, this law is clearly sectional in
its character, and impaiFs the value OF Kentucky
property. Let it be repealed immediately. or,
