BLACKwooD's MAGAZINE. Leonard Scott

New Sea Side Studies-the Scilly Isles,
which is the leading article of the July
number, is one Of those fascinating articles
on natural history with which the readers
Of Blackwood are often RECALLED. Any one,
even though quite unacquainted with
the learned nomenclature of that
branch of knowledge, can find an a
Lundance of instruction and amuse-
ment in its perusal.
Scenes of Clerical Life No. Ill, opens well.
We get new light, on the start, about the
origin of Presbyterianism, and are told
how much better it is for boys to be
bird-nesting on Sundays than to be learn
ing to read at Sunday schools, and how
much better a house-maid is for being kept
as ignorant as dray horse
The number contains other good articles.
HOUSEHOLD WORDS. n. York, Miller Il

We have received the August number of
this popular periodical, edited by Charles

its usual variety. Collins admirably
wrought story, the Dead Secret, is brought
to close in this number.
Law REPORTER FOR july Crosby, Mich

The leading article in this number is on
the relations of husband and wife. 1t is
followed by a report of a very interesting
Pennsylvania arising out of the loss of the
Steamship City of Philadelphia, which was
run upon Cape Race and wrecked, being at
the time some thirty miles out of her
course. And this fact alone, whether oc-
casioned by variation of the compass, the
vessel being new one built of iron, or by
negligence of the officers, is held by the
Court sufficient to charge her owners for
cargo shipped on board of her.
OF all the cases in this number we can
only notice further that of The National
Bank vs.. The Eliot Bank, which decides
that the holder of check cannot sue the
bank in his own name for refusing TO pay
it, even when it has funds Of the maker on

LETTER FROM SENATOR MASON, OF VIRGINIA.
WINCHESTER, Va, July 22d. 1857.
To the Editor of the " South -"
Dear Sir In your paper of Monday last
IN an article headed Walker L surpation'
observe the following paragraph
" But we are told that Hunter and Mason, and
other distinguished Southern Senators, in the de.
bate on the Kansas Nebraska bill expressed the
same opinion, that Kansas must be free State, :"
| cannot undertake to say what opinions
may have been expressed by my honored
colleague, or by other Senators from the
South, in reference to the probable condi.
ton of Kansas though, from a general
knowledge of their views in regard to that
territory, | should not doubt that any opin-
ions SO expressed would have reference to
circumstances and contingencies necessarl-
ly qualifying them. To avoid misconstruc-
ton, however, think it proper to say that
| never expressed the opinion thus ascribed
to me because | never entertained it, At
the time the law passed organizing the ter
ritorlal government, there were few with
whom | conversed who did not believe the
future State would take its place with
those recognizing and cherishing the con-
dilion of African slavery. There was at
hhbe tllhc1 ltdsOu W Dc-
lieve why this should be so, and none why
it should not The State Of Missouri, Dor
dering its eastern frontier. was a slave
holding State, holding at that time nearly
an hundred thousand slaves, and these
were chiefly held in the border counties
The State OF Arkansas, adjacent to the
territory on the South, was likewise a
slayeholding State The soil and climate
of Kansas were well adapted to those val
liable products, chiefly hemp and tobacco,
which gave value to slave labor in Missouri
The proximity OF its population, with the
attractions of new, fertile and cheap land
believed would lead the shareholders in
Missouri to dlfuse themselves speedily over
Kansas, and the prohibitory line of SO. 80
being obliterated, there was no reason why
they should not. | had no fear of fair com
petition In such appropriation of the new
territory from any quarter. Unfair COM
petition did not look to.
What may yet be the condition of Kan !
sas, notwithstanding the extraordinary and !
INSCRIPTIONS efforts of Northern Adolf |
tiOnists to force population there can
not undertake to say. Nor will allude in |
this place to the new and unexpected as
pect now exhibited of affairs in that terri
tory, with SO much propriety reprehendcd |
in the columns of the South. Whatever |
may be the information of others certain
ly am not sufficiently informed OF the exist
ing state of things in Kansas to form
clear opinion one way or the other yet |
will venture to say this much, that ii Al |
rican slavery be ultimately excluded from
Kansas, it will be effected by the numerical
force OF organized majorltes, operating |
agAinit the usual laws which govern emf
grafton and will present a new aud most
Instructive lesson to the southern States

Dubuque, Aug. 4-The election passed

Chicago, August Ave have nothing
definite regarding the Iowa election. In

l2OO or 1900. Mayor Winer's majority

much Lreduced, and Rollins falls behind

county indicates that Stewart has carried

WALKER RAID ON LAWRENCE. The Kan
sas Free State of the 18th says:
The pretext for this outbreak is simply
this, the people of Lawrence, not willing to
succumb to the government forced on them
by Missouri, undertook to put in operation
city government for the regulation of
their own local affairs, without formal
charter from the Bogus Legislature This
the governor pronounced treason and rebel
lion, and is down on them with thousand
troops,
But the real cause probably is that IIar-
ney and his officers are opposed to crossing
the plains, and want some excuse for pas
sing the next winter in their comfortable
quarters at Fort Leaveuworth.
Had this expedition really been designed
for Utah, they ought to been under way the
lst of June, and by this time would have
been at the South Pass.
If the Free State men keep cool and stay
at home, and the Missourians keep on their
own side Of the river, this squall will prob
ably pass of with but little noise.
Heretofore Governor proclamation
has been understood as general license for
all Missouri to pour into the territory to
rob, burn and murder with lmpunty. If
they come this time they will be met AS in
yaders ought to be met, but OF this there is
little danger.
