"HYFALUTIS."-1'he editor of the Norfolk
News should have his head pouticed. Hear
what he says of Stephen A. Douglas:
"As the heights of Chimborazo, towering
high above the surrounding scenery, inspire
the beholder with n reverence for the majesty
of God, so among men do the mental and
moral attributes o: one ri-ing immeasurably
pre- eminent above others teach us true
sense of the majesty of man. Both owe their
paternity to the same divine architect. The
mighty mountain is physically grand. The
position OF the man is morally sublime. By a
violent convusion of nature, Chimborazo rose
for some wise purpose, ordained by natures
God, and amid the storms and troubles of
politics the gigantic genius Of Stephen A.
Douglas, was also summoned from Obscurity
to play prominent part in the great drama
of human existence. Once an unknown nti,
san he is now numbered among the noblest,
and ablest, and truest of the wise men Of the
world"
Better liken him to Vesuvius which. though
lofty and commanding, sends forth corruption
destructive to the surrounding country.

enterprising Sag Nicht reader may try to
"rake In the coin."
We wish to offer several rewards TO the
Union and American or any other editors of
the Sag Nicht papers of this State. lst, we
will give them fifty dollars reward to name
one distinguished Northern Adrocate of the
Kansas and Nebraska bill who ever confessed
he advocated the bill because he believed it
would make out of either Of the territories,
one slare Sale.
Fifty dollars reward TO any one, who will
prove that any distinguished Northern Advo-
cate of the Kansas and Nebraska bill boldly
proclaimed that he was in favor Of giving the
South an equal chance to make slave States
out of these Territories; and that the Southern
States, according to this bill had the unques
tionable right to carry their slaves into these
territories, and under the Constitution of the
United States hold them there, as their lawful
property; and that their construction of the
bill was that the people of these territories
when they are sufficiently populous to form n
State Government and constitution, (and lot
till then) and petition for admission into the
Union as States, should decide the question
Of slavery; and that ii majority of the citi-
zens were then in favor of slavery, they would
unhcstatingly vote for its admission into the
Union as such.
Fifty dollars reward to any one who will
show US in any of the speeches of Messrs.
Douglas, Cass Buchanan, Shields, Pierce, or
any other distinguished Northern Democrat,
that he would be delighted, or even willing to
see slave States carved out of the territories
Of Oregon, California, Utah, New Mexico,

Congress has voted million and half

And so, session after session, is the common
domain of the Union given away TO build up
the free.soil States, and: Democracy so far
from having the power 10 prevent it actu;1ly
contributes to it, through the votes of mar
of its Western and Northern members. All
the Democracy have the power to do, and
really does, in this particular, is to prevent
the slavehoding States being put on an equal.
ity with the abolition States, by receiving the
shares of public lands or their proceeds to
which they are justly entitled. If Democrats
would talk less about state-rights, and do
more to enable the States to take care of
their rights, we should hear much less of
Northern aggressions and Southern wrongs.
For many years after the adoption of the
federal constitution the Southern States held
minority in Congress, and exerted con-
trolling influence 10 the federal government.
The census tables show that the increase IN
native population since that time has been
greater in the slaveholdng than the non.
slaveholding States. They would have main.
tanned and increased their ascendency in the
Union but for the Democratic policy that has
encouraged the influx of an occan-tide of
anti.slavery sentiment from Europe, that has
not merely been left free to follow its pre-
disposition to settle in the free States and
Territories, but has been encouraged 10 do SO
by bribes of public lands and immediate in
vestment there with the franchises and privi-
leges of citizenship. Yet the party to whom
these things are so justly chargeable, that
none have the hardihood to defend them
selves against them, claim TO be the party
that take care of the rights and interests of
the Southern States Lynch. Virginian.
