Yes, thou art old, and Time will dare,
To trace his burrows thy brow;
Dare silver DER thy light brown hair,
And prove thy step less agile now.
And he win dare to din those eyes,
That love to watch improvements tread;
That love so well the ''new supplies
And leave no precious truth unread.
He s dared to bow that form OF thine,
So stately once, erect and fair;
Thy hand that traced this letter mine,
He'll show that he, too, can impair.
And Time will wear away the chain,
That binds thee 30 this earthly fold;
But this I'll dare hin--oh, how vain.
He cannot make thy heart grow old

VALUABLE TABLE LEGs.-A young man
went from New York City to the West,
where he commenced business on his own
account, and married. His friends in the
city were interested in his welfare, and when
merchant was about to journey to the
place where the young man had located, he
was requested to visit the emigrant, and as
Ger tain how he lived, what sort of wife he
had chosen, his prospects, &c. Accordingly,
the New Yorker ascertained the residence of
his young friend, and called upon him quite
early in the morning. He found him in a
small, neat cottage, and just taking his
breakfast. The introduction Of the New
Yorker to his wife was quite off-hand and
unceremonious, and he was requested to be
seated and partake of the morning meal
The young wife had prepared the steak,
biscuit and coffee with her own hands, and
for table had used her kneading board,
over which knapkin was spread, and the
aboard" placed on her lap. The New York
er declined seat at the table, and took his
leave. On making the report to his New
York friends as to how he found his young
friend leaving, he described the style as
''magnificentw and for the explanation of the
superlative he said, that were he the owner
of that young mans furniture, he would not
take ten thousand dollars for the legs Of his
table.

Columbus and DR.. Kane.

The Rev. E. II. Chaplin. lately delivered a
lecture at Albany, in which he made the fol-
lowing allusion to Columbus, his burial place
and the late DR.. Kane. We copy from the
Albany Evening transcripts report:
Columbus possessed restless spirit, ever
seeking new objects on which it ight fasten
itself. And even in death, his bones have
not been permitted to rest. They werc in
tered first in Spain, then in San Domingo,
then in Cuba, and as he now lies, the steam
er which cleayes the waters of the bay may
shake the roofcovering of his long last home.
How fitting that the bones of the first great
dscoverer should be buried in the island
from which have gone out the remains of an
other great navigator-one, who measured
by his accomplishments, was proved not too
young to die. Rise up, eternal barriers of
Greenland ice, the architecture of six thou
sand years, to bar the entrance to the pole.
Shut IN the huge secrets of ages, and lock
them fast in your icy embrace. =
Yc are the undying monuments which tower
to the memory of brave man and a phi
Ianthrophist gone to his reward. Ye are the
mementoes Of great and mighty spirit,
crushed in its early burts, and withered
when it had begun but to bloom. Hang
over them, bright curtains of Northern
Light for he who traced the path of discov-
cry among their icy Businesses has ceased to
be on earth. Fit place for thy transit, loved
DR.. Kane, was the island inv hich lie mould
ering the bones of the other great navigator
who first gave America to the world"

The New Orleans Delta is urging the re-
vival Of the Slave Trade and gives as a reason
the low prices of land in the Southern States,
that it is not occasioned by the incorpora-
ton of slavery with the soil, but by the spare
ness Of the population. 1t gives. the following
as the proportion which it says is maintain
ed between the relative number of persons
to the square mile in a given country. and
the price of lard: It will be found in those
States where there are only 122 persons to
the square mile, the average value Of land is
not far from SIS per acre. In those North
ern States where there are 100 to the square
mile, the average value is not far from $50
to the acre; in England, where. there are
332 to the square mile, it is not far kl7O in
Belgium, with population Of 33S to the
squaremile, it is still greater; and in towns
and cities, where there are 10000 to the
square mile, the value Of an acre is seldom
less than $1,000" The Delta thinks, that
all the South has to do to bring the prices
OF its lands up to high figure, is to open
again the slave trade and cover them with
Negroes. l- Fr,

lord Hezlep, Newson and Captain
Major General DOdd "Gone ups with
It!
We had the pleasuse Of meeting in St.
Paul on Saturday, Hon. ST. A. d. BALcoMBE,
Of Winona, directly from the" Seat Of War"
He has been passing some two weeks in the
Blue Earth Valley, and was up there when
the war panic broke out. He authorizes us
to state, that not drop Of white blood has
been shed upon the waters Of the Blue
Earth--the Watonwan or any other OF its
branches.
No hostile I"dans have been nearer Man
kato than Spirit Lake and its immediate
neighborhood, away down on the Iowa line.
The whole thing is humbug from begin
ming to end. The panic siezed some of the
settlers on the Watonwan by hearing of the
Iowa outrages, and when the peaceable an
nuity Indians came down to commence MAX
ing sngar. some Of the settlers packed up
and fled Seeing fires on the prairies west
and south of them at night, they concluded
it was the burning of cabins. On arriving
at Mankato and St. Peter, they had succeed
ed in drawing facts of this character from
their vivid imaginations. 81,
B. II. RANDALL, ESQ.,, from Ft. Ridgely
was also in the city on Saturday, and con-
firms fully what we have stated above. He
says all the Indians were fleeing from the
sugar bush to the fort for protection, scared
nearly out of their skins.

ends, as we predicted at the outset, in a

A Coon Place FOR WBIsKY.-Thc whis-
ky trade is rapidly increasing and concen-
trating in Cincinnati. The receipts Of raw
whisky the last month is larger than were
ever known for single month, and still
range from two to three thousand barrels per
day. The daily receipts of two railroads are
one thousand barrels. The Richmond, Mad
ison, Portsmouth and Marysville packets
bring about as much more from the distille-
ries at Portsmouth, Richmond, Carrolton,
Milton, Warsaw, Patriot, Rising Sun, Auro-
ra, Petersburg, Lawrence, &C.. the White
water canal, one hundred and fifty-and
there are fully five hundred barrels made
daily by some distillers within the city limits.
Of this large amount, probably less than
half is rectifed, the balance being made into
alcohol, or shipped in raw state to maufac-
turers in other cities. The manufacture OF
alcohol consumes one thousand barrels Of
raw whisky per day in this city. Besides
this..some three hundred to five hundred bar
rels are shipped weekly to alcohol manufac-
turers at Pittsburg, Louisville and other
points. To show the magnitude of the alco-
hol trade, we will state the fact that few
days since ten thousand barrels were sold to
one house in New Orleans-probably for
shipment to Cincinna1i Gazste.

TRAVEL ON THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI THIS
SEAsoN.-The travel on the Upper Missis-
sippi this year will be immense. Thousands
in the East have caught the "Minnesota Fe-
ver," as it is called, and will hurry on to &C.
cure good farms in the future State of Min
nesota. Thousands more will 20 to &c see !"
the goodly land, and report thereon to their
friends. The fertility Of the soil, the salu-
brity of the climate, and the wide-awake
character Of the population, form attractions
which arc fast depicting many districts with
the East, hitherto undisturbed by the stam-
pede for the West. But not only will the
travel be great on account of the search for
new homes our pleasure seekers have found
that it is not on the burning sands of Sara
toga that health is to be found, but on the
lakes and rivers of the Northwest, where
they will be invigorated by breezes waited
from the icy North, and cheered by scenery
wild, grand and sublime. Chicago Press.

(From the New York Timesl

The most significant item in the news OF
this morning, is the complete triumph, in
the principal city Of slayeholding State, of
party openly and avowedly in favor OF
Emancipation. All the charter election in
St. Louis the contest turned upon that issue,
and the Emancipationists carried it by very
decided vote. There can be no doubt that
the disorderly and outrageous proceedings by
which the Pro-Slavcry Party in Missouri has
endeavOred to force Slavery upon Kansas
the agitation of the subject in this connec-
tion at home, and the effect which these
things have had upon the trade and general
busldess of st. Louis, have brought up this
issue at the present time, and contributed
largely to the result The people have been
compelled to compare the two systems of
free and slave labor, with immediate refer
ence to their own interests and when this
point is once reached in any slavehholding
State the result cannot be doubtful.
The effect Of this election upon the public
sentiment of the State at large will be very
decided. A very large emigration is already
pouring into Missouri, from Iowa, Wiscon-
sin and lllinois-which is attracted by the
comparative cheapness of land and it needs
but slight observation after arriving there to
show that the only thing necessary to make
the farms of Missouri as profitable and as
valuable as those Of adjoining States, is the
substitution of free for slave labor. Almost
the entire slave population of the State,
which is now about 100000, is confined to
II out of the 107 counties in the State
Since 1910 the white population has increas-
cd nearly 100000 and the slaves only So
900 ;-and the high price which slaves now
command in the cOtton-growing States is
rapidly diminishing the slav. population of
the State.
These natural causes, fundisturbed and
unchecked by foreign interference, are quite
certain to weaken the hold of Slavery in Mis-
souri,, and eventually to make it a free State.
An effort will doubtless be made by the Pro-
Slavery Party to connect the question with
Federal politics, and thus bring party disci-
plne to bear against the progress of the
movement This will be aided by the over
jealous demonstrations of the opponents of
Slavery in other sections of the Union but
we trust it will not succeed. The question
is one for the people of Missouri themselves
to settle, and we hope it will be regarded
and treated, uniformly and exclusively, as a
matter of local and domestic concern.

A PalPablc HIT.

Tom Marshall, the great Kentucky orator,
once in the course of public an eloquent di-
vine and Kentuckian, who had a tendency
to politics: s.s ton e., v.ea Il .ro0
Tom was discoursing on his fayor;te theme
the greatness of Henry Clay his trans
cendent eloquence and unconquerable hero
ism: Many attempts, he said, had been
made to supplant Old Hal in the confidence
and love Of Kentucky, and some of them un-
der formidable auspices, but they all ended
IN giving him higher, stronger and firmer
hold on the affections of the people. One
Of these assaults on Old Hal be had special
reosons to remember. 6
"When Mr.. Clay was at the meridian of
his greatness, there came forward on the
arena, in Kentucky, two young natives Of
the State. who were regarded as very brilli-
ant, promising yonng men; til ,y had inher-
tied talents of a very high order. and had
cultivated them very ass.duousIy had en-
joyed the advantages of the best schools and
teachers the country could afford. They
were both regarded as eloquent speakers,
sound logicians, vigorous contraversialists -
The opponents of Old Hal looked to these
two promising and gifted young men as the
champions before whose strong arms and
well poised lances the brave old knight, the
hero and victor in SO many fights, would 20
down into the dust. The impetuous young
cavaliers were not long in responding to the
general expectation, and clad in full armor
with nodding plunes and gallant air. they
rushed into the arena, and hurled them
against the old chief A log and violent
conflict ensued.
Here Tom paused for some time in the
narrative, until his impatient audience ex-
claimed: p- ...
"What was the result2 Who whipped 2"
CAN can tell you further of this con-
test" resumed Tom, "is that, after it was
over, the old Knight went to the United
States Senate, and his two young assailants
dotted their armor--the one took to the pull
pit and the other to the cup"-and, after a
long serious pause, and in a loud and en-
phatic tone, he added:
"Dam-me, if / havn't stuck closer to my
text than Bob Breckenridge !"

Free Lover. Converted to Catholicism.

We learn from the Catholic Telegraph and
Advocate of the 4th inst, that Doctor T. l.
Nichols and Mary Cove Nichols, OF Free
Love notoriety, were baptised on last Sun.
day afternoon in st. Xavier Church, Syca.
more street, Cincinnati, by Rev. Father Oak
ley, Rector Of the College, having been duly
converted to the Catholic faith. With them
were also baptised a daughter of Mrs. Mich
OILS by former husband, and Miss Hop.
kins, of the Free Love Yellow Springs Insti
tuition.
From the following paragraph in the Tele.
graph it appears that the spirits were the in
struments that effected these wonderful con.
versions: "
1t is not little remarkable that on either
side Of the Atlantic, at the same time, the
spirits have advised their mediums. NJ.
Hume, at Paris, and DR.. Nichols aud family
here, to seek salvation through the church.
1t they are good spirits, we can easily see the
motives of this advice if bad ones, they are
like those who went out Of the possessed, as
we read in the gospel, confessing Jesus
Christ.
Doctor Nichols, in the name of himself and
wife, has written retraction of his Free
Love and Infidel teachings, in letter to
Archbishop Purcell, which is printed. The
pith of the document is in the paragraph fol-
lowing:
In the infinite mercy of Almighty God,
we have been led, by what has seemed to us,
the direct and miraculous interposition of the
Holy Spirit, and by the blessed teachings OF
Saint lgnatius Loyola and St. Francis Xavier,
to the renunciation of intidelity, and to tie
humble acceptance to the faith and guidance
of the Church. In deep humility and con-
triton we submit ourselves to her divine or
der; We accept what she teaches-and we
repudiate and condemn what she condemns.
Whatever, in our writings and teachings, and
in our lives, has been contrary to the doc
trines, morality, and discipline of the Holy
Catholic Church, We wish to retract and re-
pudiate, and were it possible, to atone for.
