have never been able to find such pre-
diction, and must conclude that the infer
ence which J. II. 8. draws from Davids

scripture but is contrary TO them. The
hope of Israel centres in the resurrection
of the dead. God twill open their graves
and bring them up out of their graves,
and place them in their own land. "-Ezek

superintendent Convention.

Believing that a Convention of the
Town Superintendent in this County
might be highly conducive to the harmo-
nious action, and general prosperity of
our schools, would respectfully invite
the attention of all those holding that of
fee, to the propriety and probable bene-
fits of such meeting. The topics for
discussion connected with this department
of labor are sufficiently numerous and
important to claim both our attention and
our time. Among other subjects that of
text and reading books, their exchange,
&C., demands unanimous cooperation
Probably most if not all of the Superin-
tendents have received a circular upon
this subject, dated at West Brattleboro'
over the signature of D. H. Ranney
Booksellers and Agents are busy making
proposals of exchanges. As we have
but just passed by very expensive ex-
change, shall we not unite our wisdom
and efforts to keep the "ship right side
up?"
As I do not wish to assume the re.
sponsibility of issuing call for such {
convention, 1 will here propose that Sc
many of the Superintendents of thi;
county as would favor such a call BY theil
attendance will Immediately certify theil
concurrence to the Town Superintendent
of Irasburgh, with the request that OF
receiving a sufficient number Of names tt

THE INAUGURAL-AN ERROR OF
THE TYPE.-The North Star says: A." In
the second paragraph of MIR. Buchanan's
Inaugural Address, as published in the
Star of last week, one of those typo
graphical errors were made which some
times will occur in newspaper print
The word democratic was used, when it
should have read 'domestic'-simply an
error of the type, and one which no
doubt many of our readers would at once
perceive. We copy the sentence Of the
Inaugural with the error corrected, as
follows -
" What happy conception, then, was
it for Congress to apply this simple rule,
that the will of the majority shall govern
in the settlement Of the question of do
n1sstic slavery in the territories
Right at first, Mr.. Star. You forced
Mr.. Buchanan to say just what he ought
to have said. For once Democratic types
have told the truth-a mistats, Of course.
ID" Slavery in the territories" as every,
where else, is " Democratic slavery" ac-
cording to the modern definition Of thai
term.

A gentleman who has lately visited
the former county, informs us that in
some localities the people are leaving in
alarm and dismay. Persons are attacked
with the remarkable malady very sud
denly, soon become insane and die in
few hours. We do not know that any
have recovered when once attacked by
the disease. Duane Brown and Richard
Thomas, Esqs., two prominent lawyers
of Madison county, have fallen victims
to it, and we are told that in some Of the
villages deaths occur daily. As yet there
is no rational explanation of the dis
ease"

Kansas.

The intelligence from that distracted
country last received, connected with the
decision of the Supreme Court, seems to
render the condition of things there des-
perate. No hope for liberty there, and
the prospect of its being free State,
even should nine tenths of the actual
settlers favor it, cannot any longer be re-
garded as an open question. Kansas
viii be admitted as a member of this
slaveholding eonfederacy, with a eonsti-
tuition establishing slavery there in less
than one year from this date, and all re-
sistance to such a result, is as idle as
beating the wind. The matter is fixed,
and the whole power of the federal gov
eminent is under the most solemn obi
CATION and pledge to effect the object,
and it viii be done. We may as well
admit the painful truth first and last, for
after what has been done in Washington.
By O body Of men VIM were supposed 10
be set for the defence of our liberties,
we must learn to wonder at nothing, but
strive to understand our true position and
prepare to meet consequences. BIaiori-
ties do not govern in this land, and have
not for many years past, nor will they in
Kansas. We make the foregoing declar-
alton with pain and sorrow, but regrets
are useless, for from henceforth, and fol
how long, we do not conjecture, we are
nation of slaves, and while men of the
North viii be placed under the whip o.
the southern slave-driver, and he who
refuses to yield to such dictation, doe:
so at his peril. We have indeed faller
upon evil times, and the future is al
dark. but still there is hope. Liberty
may be enjoyed ont Of the Union, if no
in the Union, and that syren song which
has lulled so many into fancied security

eral deaths having already occurred. 1t

But beset as she is by foes from without
the State, who invade the polls at every
general election, who are backed up by
all the influence of the democracy, and
aided and assisted by the venal decisions
of the Supreme Court of the nation, what
hope is there for her? What shall she
do but submit to the indignities until the
day of vengeance arrives, when the pow
er of the present dominant party shall
have been broken, through their over
weening desire to bolster up the rotten
institution of slavery.
