GUSHING MiSRkPRESENTED.
Either the National american abandnns the charge
that Pierce Douglas and Cushing advocate Squstter
Sovereignty, else is puzzled to produce any proof
Of its accusation. Cur neighbor is certainly very
slow in responding tn our challenge.
Itis no secret that Mr. Bolts the writer OF the ar
cle in the american, in which Mr.. Gushing was ar
ragned for endorsing Squatter Sovereignty in his
speech Mt the Slash Cottage. Indeed he purpossiy
courted publicity by attaching the iniIie erter Of

attempting, with deliberate malice, to pe-yc::. ihe

in the abandon of unre:e:yed confidence in the hon
or of his usaoaiates The occasion excluded every
thought oil aelf and party and blended all hearts in Il
single sentiment Of homage to the memory of Genius.
II was no time place for the vgilant hostility ard
cautious criticism Of the politician. Mr.. Cushing
was there by invitation and he lad ao suspicion that
he was to be watched and wgyaid, and that his
words would be taken down and nalicously twisted
to cerYe 81 Ungenerous purpose. Mr.. Bolts was the
otlical representative Of the persons who brought
Mr.. Gushing to the conSivial board. II Mr.. Cush.

alike disfranchsed, and alike contemptible An
English author, of high authority informs us that in
l770 there were 2j0OOO freehold estates in ENGLAND
IN The year lsl' only sOOo0. The real object of the
Massachusetts fanatics is 10 monopolize the public
lands. The men whom they colonize are their tools
and dupes, and will become their slaves SO soon
as population is dense and employment scarce. The
Roman public lands corrupted and enervasd her
upper classes, and paupersed and depraved her
masses, by the land monopoly which they occasion
ed May not our public lands be the ruin Of Ameri-
cat Kings and armies have ceased to be dangerous
to liberty. 1t is the money power now, against which
the people must guard.

THE PUBLIC LANDS OF ROME AND OF
AMERICA.

The policy OF tpe Roman ilepUolc was tue same
a, ours, with regard to their public lands They
deayored to effect an equal and equitable division Of
those lands among the people. The graePing rapa'
cy Of the rich, and the noble continually thwarted
their purposes. Law after law was enacted to check
and prevent the monopoly Of those lands by the rich
and powerful But all in vain. The Gracchi lost
their heads for revvng the Licnian law, which had
been enacted soon after the expulsion OF Iarqun and
which limited to five hundred jugera, about three
hundred and fifty acres the amount Of public land to
be held by any one individual. The nobility were
not satisfied with taking the lives Of the Gracch but
succeeded in covering their memory with ooioquy
for two thousand years. The researches o. Nieeunr
haze stsnglh rssqIeG :ksi repIte..Gns from Inc as
persions Of their enemies, and restored their images
TO the io:tiest pedesta in the temple Of fame.
The Romans attempted, in vain, what we are at
tempting in vain to restrain fraud and check mono
poly We sell the public lands in sections aud quar-.
ter sections. We give rights of pre- emption to &C.
tual settlers But how can afew dsconns2ted and
iaolated ndyia"sis contend Nth miliions Of North
ern capital, welded by soulless corporations' The
Emigration Aid Society drive individuals out of
the market, build towns where they please, make
roads where they please destroy the value of other
people's lands, and enhance that of their own, by
diverting md concentrating trade and traa:c. For
ceYe,a caqtuyisa HoHs wa soTn with dssensions,
arising from the i,upHsitloh of the public lands
Rome had 10 chartered land companies We are
threatened with greater evils than she endured. The
fate of the Gracchi was the deathknell of Roman
liberty. Land monopoly continued to increase, till
the body Of the Roman people, cp. of from the so
became coBsrdly gasa Of dependent beggars, sup
ported by toe daily distribution Of public charity
The same cutting Of of the people from the soil has
occurred in England, followed by the same oonse'
qusnces-mendicty, pauperisla, crime and cowaralce
with the massesilu the days of Magma Charta. every
man in England had sn nterest in the coil other az
lord. tenant yasssl OF villain. Every man was es'
sentialy free man, because he commanded at all
times the meaps Of comfortable substance Inc
abolition of serfdom, the confsoaon of the Church
lG"ao, tie extinction of feudal tenures, the annha
tion Of regal power, and the creation of national
Bank, have cut of the people from every right, pr

CINCINNATI SLAVE CASE,

Our readers have been informed of a recent in
stance of conflict Of authority at Cincinnati, between
the courts of the State of Ohio and oc the rnited
States, in the case Of Y. i. Robinson, Esq, the
,rt.d S,atee Marshal who was arraigncd before the
Probate Court Of Hamilton county for contempt Of
court in delivering the slaves in the Gains case to the
owner instead Of obeying the order Of Judge Bur.
goyne to bring them before the Probate Court upon
writ Of Eabess corpus. The Marshal answered that
the slaves are delivered 10 the owners in compliance
with an order Of the United States District Court, Of
which he ia all officer. Judge Burgoyne fined him
$500, and ordered him to be committed until he obey
sd the order Of tho Court. The Marshal applied TO
Judge Leayitt, oi tue United States District Court to
be liberated by writ Of habeas corpusi and on We'd
nesday last the case having been previously fully
gued, Judge L.avit delivered his decsion rel leasing
Mr.. Robinson from custody on the ground that, in
refusing to obey the order of Judge Burgoyne, he
was sactny under the authority ofa law OF The Unit.

LANES NJ, MASON,

As the time approaches when ihs DeEIocrati. party
shall nominate candidute for the Presidency Of the
United States the paIneo of various distinguished
men are HeatIIneti 10 connection with that position.
The question as to whether the candidate shall be
taken from the North the South enters, to
tenn, into the discussion. The idea which is often
presented TINT Northern man who favors, seems
10 favor the peculiar institutions of the South get
more votes in the North, than Southern man, tho.
roughly imbu-d with Southern sentiments aud iden-
tilted with Southern institutions, Is opposed to the
general experience ut mankind. Take, far instance,
the Of an Englishlnnn who exprOsaeH prefer
ence fr monarchical institutions. No American
thinks any the lesa Of him that account, because,
all has associations and ideas are Connected with mo-
archy lao hgs been educated under its influence, aud
owes allegiance 10 Tint form OF government. But
American citizen who expresses such preference,
cannot be tolerated by high.minded honorable men,
either in England or America. Just so II Is with re-
sprct Ia the conflicting interests and opinions be-
tween the North and the South. Southern men are
expected To maintain in good faith the local right,
and inalitatuns of the South, but Northern senti-
ment does not accord the same privileges 10
Northern men. Let us present ;se case in
another point of view. suppose citizen of
Virginia or AM other slnve-holdng State, TO pro.
mulgate fr-e-soil srd abolition sentiments aud tu be
nominated by Ee free soil aud abolition party for the
Presidency. WOuld he not incur much greater OPP
position, much more intense haired from the people
Of the slnve-hoding States than il he belonged 10
community in which tree.sUil and abolition sentiments
prevail 7 And would not his sincerity be 1uecti:.Ied
by rss snilsrs and aboliiiOnsts theInselvss II is
obvious therefore,, that the people OF 10 North prefer
q Southern msn-gOod and true-sor the Presidency,
TO q Northern man with Southern feelings"
Again, the great rArss Of the Democratic strength
lies in the ScY.h. Hence the South is entitled to the
Presidency ss o matter of right. Let the Northern
Democracy, therefore, prove their loyalty to the Cen
stitu'inual rights of the South and the integrity Of
the Union by giving their support tc s Southern
Democrat for the Presidency.
Now, where is there a Southern more gener-
ally and favoraby knuwr to the Democracy of tho
South and Of th2 :nion, than the statesman
whose name s.auds at he head Of this communica
ton Il 10 q name synonymous with thcse great
principles OF civil and religious liberty which Iis at
The bottom Of our free institutions. His nomination
would doubles. unite the South upon principle.

enance Of the Union, and secure the hearty support
