BETTER THAN BAPTIsM-A clerical
correspondent of the New York Sun who
went to Europe in the steamer that bore
Horace Greedy, writes that he thinks
from "a remark that he Greedy made, -
that Greedy cares more, for breakfast than
for prayers and that he hasn't much re-
gard for Evangelical christianity. from
the fact that. on asking him if he had
ever been baptised, Greeley replied, mol

a DOMESTIC Row.-Morton, the editor
Of the Nebraska News, thus describes a
domestic row and subsequent reconcilia-
ton, of which he was witness:
Coming down the Missouri, near Bean
Lake. between Weston and St. Joe, our
boat was hailed by a woman on shore.
The officers of the craft, with their usual
gallantry, rounded to-" headed up
stream. and stopped. The lady informed
them that her "duds and cooking con-
sarns" were all packed in the cabin hard
by, ready for removal, and that it was
her desire to take passage with them
down the river. Immediately the duds
were under way, and fast coming on
deck; when a man blowing in an ada
cent field. was seen to drop the reins, and
mount the horse, and come charging and
yelling towards the boat The captain
waited until he had arrived, and then
putting and blowing, said. Gam, where
on earth are you going tew ?"
Said she. "Joab. l allow to go where
I amt to be cuffed, and cursed, and maui
ed every day, by such brute as you
are"
Said he, in very melancholy tone
Gam, farewell"
Said she. doubtfully-"Joab, if you'll
treat ne better, I'll stay and live with
you until the breath is clean out of my
innocent body"
And Joab promised that he would, and
that he hoped to be eternally dog-on-ed
to thunder if he wouldn't pay the captain
for landing, and treat all around, If she
would just stay, and so she stayed. And
thelast seen of this nearly separated couple,
they were afectionately embracing each
other on the bank of the "big muddy"
surrounded by seven little free-soil boys,
whose shirt-tails, like the banners of Mac
beth. were hung upon the outer walls,
and whose eyes were full of gum, dirt

YGnkes-Well, Sill. is it true that they

Southerner-I viii answer you in the
fsvorite method of your own country
men. by asking you a question or two.
Yankee admit the right, sir.
Southerner-How many negro men do
you suppose it would require to draw a
good, large, one-horse pillow?
Yankee-Well, suppose, six or sev-
en-say seven.
Southerner-What are they worth per
head
YaRkee-Well, suppose $500.
Southerner-Thst wozld be $500.
Now, what would one large, strong horse

Yankee guess, about 500.

in large bodies fully armed dcposed and appointed
otirers Of the polls voted to their own satisfac-
ton. and, having swept all before them
u. the point Of the bowie-knife, returned
to the Missouri border towns in rejoicing preces-
soDs to celebrate their triumph in imposing
Slavery upon Kansas contrary to the will OF her
inhabitants. They did not disguise the character
Of their operations in Kansas nor dis.emble their
purpose. II 10 just as undeniably established that
the body which passed the acts now recognized BY
President Buchanan and Gov. Walker as Laws OF
Kansas was elected by men who then lived and
ainIy live in Missouri, it is that New York
voted for Fremont or Virginia for Buchanan last
year. And from the hour in which this u'urpation
was contaminated and Slavery imposed on X insaS
in cor querce to this moment, we have not ceased
TO labor, entreat, demonstrate and put forth every
energy, to have it overthrow and government
based on the votes of majority of the actual
residents Of Kansas installed in it's stead. The
main, the only efectusl obstacle to the success Of
these efforts has been the ascendency of what is
called the Democratic party in the Federal Govern
ment. Had that never existed, Kansas would not
have been eytn six months enslaved Had it been
o,erthrown last FALL the usurpation would have
been ended soon after the 4th of March Last. By
what bubbles, pretexts, lodges, shifts, equivoca-
tons pleas of "estoppsl," this usurpation has been
naiptsped, our readers already know. We have
been overcome in three four ofihe sixteen Free
States by the solid vote of nine-enths of the cleo
tors who cannot or will not read, Oyerbearog a
arge nsjoriiy of all who can and will read. 1t is
the verdict of those jurors who have heard neither
the testimony nor the argument, united to the
strength of that section in which our side Of the
question not allowed to be presented that has
sened Kansas to her present subjugatOn md Slavery
We trust this injustice is not destined to final tr
uppb But when we hear it's advocates and apollo
sisls proclsim theirs the side of Popular sOyer-
eighty" and charge us with denying theright of the
People to self government, is it wonder that We
should repel the assumption in the briefest rather
than the politest terms!
