bhlNtlNG II HOME TO THEM - ne
Black Republicans, in the New York Legis-
ture, have passed a series of resolutions
against the bred Scott decision, and very
appropriately embodied into them the res
olutions of $3.50" These last, it will be
remembered, assert, each State to be
its own judge of the coustitutionality of
any and every act of Congress, and ignore
the authority and even the existence of
the Supreme Court. They lay down the
doctrine, that notification is the true re-
medy for the real, or supposed ills Of fed
eral legislation; and disregarding the ac-
ton of the only department of the gov
ernment vested with authority to decide
contested points of constitutional law,
appeal to the States, each for itself, to be
their own umpire in all such cases.
The resolutions of 1888" are a perfect
wind-fall to the Black Republicans, who
rejoice to End themselves sustained by
these "time- honored" doctrines of demo
cracy which contain the essence of that
"highcr law dogma SO subversiVe of all
government. @

The very great superiority Of Systematic Emigration
over the No.System hitherto prevailing is manifest
The entire expense of removing these people from their
old homes in the interior of Ireland to Wisconsin falls
short of $25 each and they were hardly six weeks
from work to work. The average expense OF strags

than $50, and whole is consumed in the pro-
cess The moral safeguards Of Mr. Fosters system are
even valuable than its pecunary advantages. The
usual temptations iuteuperanee owdness and vagran

completely precluded by this plan. We trust may
be widely extended and perpetuated.

Of systenatized emigration, and advocated it as public
work, by which the West would be the gamer There
have been efforts madc heretofore, to carry out varoua

old country there have also been colonies transpanted
from the old to the world, where agents have gone

sometimes POLITICAL and in two three instances pure

The good ship toward tropic shore
Pursued her prosperous course,
But hidden rocks lii ambush lie,
She strikes with fatal force
She strikes She groans With wounded heart
O'er the dark food she reels,
And ruin, like the bolt of heaven,
Her doom forever seals.
Down with the boats - The masters voice
Assumes resistless power,
For manhood hath godlike might
To rule in perii's honr-
They meet the wave, they take their freight
Women and helpless child
With hard sailors at the helm
They dare the breakers wild.
The deep drum rolls, and on the deck
Come forth martial band,
Who hoped their country's cause to serve
Upon foreign strand
They hear the loud reveille beat
But not for battle fray,
And come the last dread fee to meet
In resOlute array.
No boats for them The raging sea
The swimmers power defes,
Shoulder to shoulder on the wreck,
In marshall'd ranks they rise

And now it calls to die.

And give 1t victory

An echo on the wave,
And loud that booming valley spoke
The farewell of the brave,
While from the ready, trusting soul
AS husk from ripen'd sheaf--
Pass'd off the dreams and cares Of EARTH
Pass'd off the love and grief.
Down, down-each moment lower still,
Hand knit in hand, they bore
Their black plumes mid the tossing foam
I.oomd up-and all was DER
All Ger save that one mountain surge
Like tyrant cleft the tide,
Uplifting with thunder-voce
Its boast Of wrath and pride;
While deeper sieh'd the solemn sea.
As DER the reef she breaks,
Deporing with grief profound
The many wrecks she makes
And though DER many argosy
Her whelming billows swept,
Naught noher than those British hearts
In her cold bosom slept.
