Slavery in such lneqniyoeal terms Of condemns

8 OF Georgia, upon motion to prohibit the intro

from which we quote, ''made strong and feel.
ing appeal upon the ground
First-That the traffic in slaves is revolving to
humanity, and,
Second-at variance with the spirit of Chris
,ianity.
When did Senator's Seward or Sauaner-nay,
when did Garrison or Lewis Tappan, both
avowed abolitionis;s-eye 60 further than to
say that slave labor was Improbable to it's en-
ployees, and thar buying and selling human
beings was not reconcilabe with the teachings of
/ Christ.
| We have been covered over with reproaches
by the government paper al Washington for OPP
| posing the introduction of servile labor into Kan
| sas and Nebraska because we were satisfied that
| it would be disadvantageons TO those territories;
that it tended to impoversh the land and people,
| aud TO extend an institution which we are bound
| by every consideration-moral, social and reii-
| gIous-to restrict within the narrowest limits,
and yet we have never uttered syllable against
| slavery which is not more than sustained by the
honorable senators whose language we have
| quoted.
This is the way leading men talk about slave
~ to the people Of Geogia, and what is more to
the purpose, forty-one Senator'S voted with Sen
ators Peoples and Pope to prohibit the introduce
ton Of more slav IS into the State, thus plainly
indicating that the views they expressed were
neither strange in that body, unpopular.
Almost contemporaneous with this denonstra-
ton we receive the proceedings of public
meeting of the regular democracy of 81. Louis,
denouncing the President for opening the slave
ry agitation again, and substantially approving
the application of the jefferson ordinance of
1887, by the adoption of the following among
several other resolutions: ..-...s
Resolved, That the Democracy of st. Louis
county, were faithful to the great principles to
which that party has adhered from the torlna-
ton of government and believing that upon the
successful maintenance of these principles de-
ponds the repose and safety of the country,
deem this an appropriate occasion to renew the
expression of their undimnished devotionto the
great cause of popular freedom and equality,
and the principles of that party of which Nr.
Jefferson was the illustrious founder
This resolution is virtual approval of the an
ti-slaverv proviso; condemnation of the Kun
sas-biil, including the repeal of the antislavery
restriction and Recommendation that the gov
eminent to its ancient territorial policy, govern
ing through officers appointed by the Executive
and Senate
So also member of the Legislature of Vir-
gna, a day or two since, in opposing an appro-
priation for the defence of Parsons, indicted in
the State of Pennsylvania for kidnapping used
the following language:
"Sir, it is not the fanaticism of the north
alone that is arrayed against slavery in the
South 1t is the sentiment of all christendom
that is against you, and you stand here upon the
justice of your cause, aad behind the battle
ments Of the Constitution OF the Union"
In other States we discern similar evidences
of a disposition to doubt whether slavery is the
greatest boon which has been conferred by Prov
idcnce upon America: though, we regret to add,
that that skepticism has not yet obtained much
circulation among the administration party OF
New York.

York Musical Review, thus writes on the death
of his child, Kittie Lizzie, at the age of five
years. Was ever anything more touchingly pen
ned?
Kitte is gone. Where? To Heaven. An
angel came and took her away. She was love-
" child-gentle as little lamb; the pet of the
whole family; the youngest of them ALL But
she could not stay with them any longer She
had an angel-sister in Heaven who was waiting
for her. The angel-sister was with us only a
few months but she has been in Heaven many
years and she must have loved Kittie, for every
body loved her. The lovclicst flowers often
soonest plucked. If 4 little voice swceter and
more musical than others was heard, knew
kittie was near. If my study door was opened
so gently and silly that no sound could be heard,
| knew kittic coming. If after an hours
quiet play, little shadow passed me, and the
door opened and shut no one else could open
ana SHUT IT, so as NOT 10 ulstufD papa, 1 kNc"
kittc was coming.
When in the midst of my composing, I heard
gentle voice saying, "Papa, may stay with
You little while? l will be very still, did
not need to look off my work to assure me itw |
my little lamb. You stayed with me too long, !
kittie, dear, to leave me so suddenly: and you |
are too still now. You became my little assis
tant, my home angel, my Youngest and sweetest
singing bird, and | miss the little voice that l
heard in an adjoining room, catching up and
echong little snatches of melodies as they were
being composed | miss those soft and sweet |
kisses. l miss the little hand that was always |
placed upon my forehead, to 'drive away the
pain" miss the sound oil those little feet upon |
the stairs miss the sound of the little knock |
at my bedroom door in the morning, and the |
triple goodnight kiss in the evening. l miss
the sweet smiles from the sunniest of faces
miSs-oh! how miss thee foremost in the
little group who came cut TO meet me at the gate
for the first kiss. do not stoop SO low, kittie, |
to give the first kiss. | miss you at the table
and at family worship miss your voice in 81
want to be an angel" for no body could sing it
like you l miss you in rides and walks miss
you in the garden. l miss you every where
but will try not to miss you in Heaven. PA
pa, if we are good will an angel truly come and
take us to Heaven when We die?" When the
question was asked how little did think the
angel was so near! But he did ''truly' come,
and the sweet flower is transplanted to a
more congenia Cline 81 do wish papa would
come home Wait a little while, Kittie, and
papa will come. The journey is not long. He
will soon be "homc."
MONEY AND BUSINESS IN New YoRK.-The
week closes decided Improvement in the
| money and stock markets. Money is accumua-
ting in deposits III Wall street. Some small
amounts of coin have been sent to New Or
leans. S250,0Oo has been put up for that desti-
| nation this morning, but the receipts of coin
from the Yves, make up for it. The payments
for duties have been very light this week, and
the Assay. office has coined the whole OF the
California receipts deposited there. Next week
the payments for duties will probably be again
larger, as there are several steamers arrive in
port in the course of a few days. Though the
imports appear large this year in comparison
