NEGRO SLAVERY THE BASIS.

When Mr.. McDuhc, a few years since,
made the declaration that "slavery was the
corner stone of our republican cdifcc," it
was snccrcd at as too absurd to merit Il reply,
and except by tlcmost benighted and diIapl
dated portion Of the federal press, which
kept repeating it for years to show the utter
depravity Of democratic politicians, it was
passed by as one of those flights Of rhetorical
display more remarkable for boldncss and
brilliancy than for truth or philosophy, which
sometimes distinguished that eloquent ORA
tor and gallant gentleman. But this re-
mark expressed truth Of t:anscendant i'm
portancc, and the time is not distant when
the most stupid and most Iigotcd among us
will however reluctantly, admit it. 1t Is
true, that under ordinary circumstances 1t
might require Il considerable time for such
Il truth to penetrate the n:ind Of the millions,
but We are rapidly drifting toa crisis on this
momcntous slavery question, and when the
tru,il-thc hard, solid, iron truth-can alone
save Us from frirhtful cHlamitics. Indeed,
the masses. even those Of the North, are
ready to accept it any time, for instinct is
after all, IL more inlallible guide than rea-
son, and as aboltiOnism is alone found 4
mon" the educated portion Of the people, and
such Il thing as an abolitionist among the
working classes of the North rarely known,
50 the true relation Of the races or 50 called
slavery will be accepted by them as the nor
maj condition o! society, for it accords with
their instincts as well as common sense.
/ Democracy, in The true American sense,
is cquality-cquality of rights and equality
of duties for all those whom God has crca-
ted equal. All who belong to the species
or race have common capacities, wants, in
StinclS, tendencies, and it is therefore self
evident truth, as propoundcl by Jefferson,
that they should lave the same privileges
and he held to the same esponsibilitics. -
/ Ono man may be born with more mental Ca
pacity than another, as everybody sees they
are in their physical attributes, and educi-
tion-mental cxcrcisc--or cultivation may
produce or result in wide and extreme vari;-
tions, not only in their intellectual powers,
but in the moral habitudcs, their scnsibil.-
ties. their tastes, manners, &c. But these
things arc all accidental, the fortune or mis-
fortune of the individual, and with which
governments or mems political rights and
duties have no connection. The great foun-
lation of eternal law, fixed by the hand Of the
Almghty-that those created alike, and
therefore designed for like purposes, shall
enjoy the same duties is all that comes with
in its scope; thus true and Legitimate gov.
crnmcnt, securing this natural equality to
-all its citizens, leaves every thing beyond to

from 10000 to $4,000 letters per hour, or
about IS words per minute, which is but
little less than the average speed of human
speech. The Hughes instrument clearly
demonstrates the practicability of sending
and receiving messages in opposite directions
over the same wire at the same instant of
time, and with the utmost ease, regularity,
and certainty. "It will consequently require
but one wire and one operator, at any given
point, 10 send and receive as much business
as can be transmitted by the aid of 4 or 5
operators and an equal number of wires uu-
der the Morse system. Another equally
important popularity connected with the
Hughes invention is the undoubted fact that
it will work perfectly in very long circuits,

having any perceptible effect.
"Therefore, at seasons when the Morse
and House instruments are utterly power
less, even in circuits of so miles, there is
every reason to believe that the Hughes in
strument will work reliably in circuits o!
1000 or 1000 miles. The simplicity and
durability of the new machine will compare
favorably with the Morse, and is vastly su.
perior in these respects to the House iustru.

The patent has been sold to the American
Telegraph Company, new association, hav.

THE HUGHES TELEGRAPH.

The following, from Life Illustrated will
be read with much interest The progress
of Tclcgraphing is the most astonishing of
anything Of the present day. We hope some
one will invent an impartial reporter:
"This wonderful instrument, the invcn-
tion of David f. Hughes, of Louisville, is
now finished, and will be Immediately placed
upon the line between this city and Phila-
dephia. These machines, so far as it has
been possible to test them through coil of
100 miles in length, have realized the most
sanguinc expectations of Mr.. H. and his
friends, and there is no reason to doubt that
the invention will speedily work an entire
revolution in tclegraphing throughout the
world. This invention may be called prin-
ting press and telegraph instrument combi-
ned, for it prints all messages in plain Ro-
man capitals, with unerring correctness, and
at an almost incredible rate of speed, avera-
ging, in the ordinary dispatch of business,

Mr.. F1LLMoRE's ELECTION DECIDED
Yesterday we received a call from an old
'76 Vermonter, who stated that he had had
a vision, in which he had foreseen the GER
tain election of Milard Fillmore to the Pres
idcncy in November next.
Said he, "You may think me a foolish old
man, but I know of what speak. For the
last twenty years | have had a similar vision
on the eve of the Presidential: elections
and never have been mistaken. In 1874
I was a Clay man, but cried before any
body else, in secret, for I knew that Henry
Clay would be defeated; and irll you now,
that Millard Fillmore will be the next Pres
ident of these United States. They can't
beat him, for Providence is on his sid" -

TRIAL OF Mr.. BRooKs.-WAsH1NaToN,
July S.-The trial of Mr.. Brooks took place
to-day, when Messrs. Butler, Benjamin
Pearce, Foster, Toombs and Keitt were pres.
cnt. Mr., Sumner was absent from the city to
avoid a SUBPOENA. Mr.. Brooks regretted the
absence Of Mr.. Sumner, as he desired tosin-
torrogate him in regard to his evidence be-
fore the House Committee He then made
short speech, in which he took the ground
thnt there were some offences where the law
was inadequate to afford remedy, and while
he had heart to feel and hand to strike
he would redress the wrongs of his political
mother, and if necessary, would squander
his means and endanger his life in her de.
fence. - -
He now bowed to the majesty of the law
and would receive his sentence.
Judge Crawford forebore comment, and
fined him $500.

There's a word very short, but decided and PLAIN,
And speaks TO the purpose at once;
Nota child but its meaning can quickly explain,
Yet oft tits too hard to pronounce:
What world of fvcxaton and trouble 'twond spare
What pleasure and peace 'twould best"w,
If we turned when temptation would lure and en-
snare,
And firmly repulse it with ''No -
When the der would tempt us with trifes and play
To waste the bright moments so dear;
When the scotfer unholy our faith would galnSay
And mock at the Word We revere;
When deception, and ialsehood, and guile would
invite,
And hcctiug enioymeats bestow,
Never pater with truth fora transient delight,
But check the first impulse with 'No!"
In the morning of life. in maturitys day,
Whatever the cares that engage.
Be the prccepts of virtue our guide and our stay
Our solace from youth unto age!
Thus the heart Shall nc'er waver, no matter how
tried,
Bnt frmness and constancy show,
And when passion or folly would draw Us aside,
We'd spurn the scducer with ''No.'

OUR PRoGREssIvEAaE.x

We have seen no example more striking
of the tendency of modern Annericanideas
than is contained in the annexed extract from
the Philadelphia Ledger: ~ 81 3.
"PERsoNAL RIGHTS ABUSED. "A few
days ago the penitcntiary of Indiana was
partially burnt down, and the couvicts rebel
led in body because the Legislature of that
State having failed to elect Superintendent,
the Governor had appointed one in his place.
1t was not that the retiring Superintendent
was particularly popular, or that the one ap-
pointed was the reverse, but the ground Ia
ken by the prisoners was that the Governor
had no constitutional right to make the ap-
pointment, and they, consequently, were net
bound to obey in fact, that they, were in
honor bound to stand out for their Just rights
and prerogatives. Whether they conceived
that it was their duty to choose their own
Superintendent, or that they were entitled to
their full liberty, we have not heard. g
"Truly we live. in an age Of liberty and
constitutional rights to some purpose. The
men who have deGed all the laws of their
country consider that they are to be judge;
and jury, and to decide what is law and how
the States prison is to be managed The
sense Of injured rights so swells the. bosoms
of these proud, patriotic men, that they make
efforts to liberate themselves from this tyran-
ny which not all the;love of personal free
dom could awaken in them before. tits
strange, but such is the fact; and q most.
peculiar fact it is, having its good as well ss
its ridiculous features, and Characteristic of
the age in which We live.
"It is, indeed, this kind of abuse:of all
just views of human rights which is one Of
the greatest dangers of the times. Inevery
college in the land each sophomore finds out,
that the discipline of the faculty is amin
fringemeut on some Of the rights ofthe;stn-
dents, and forthwith they set up for themsel-
YES the right to decide how a college ought
to be governed, how high ought to bethes
grade of each, and what amount of punish
meut ought to be inflicted in each case Of
disorder or disobedience, what regulations
ought to be obcyed, and what is to be dis,
carded from the college laws as unconstitu-
t:onal."
