y" We have no Faith in the old heathcn-
god Of that name but that good angels
come to give to children happy holiday
dreams, and to make those dreams real by
bedside gifts can doubt whose child
hood knew mothers love, or the gentle
care of an elder sister. We remember such
m angel in the rcams Of our childhood,
stcali & into our chamber, half awaking us
with the rustling Of her wings, and leaving
tokens Of love that in the morning seemed
to us to have dropped from tho skies"

Senator Wilson in his speech in the Senate
yesterday, alluded to the removal Of Pro-
fessor llcndrick, who was removed from the
University of North Carolina because OF his
devotion to freedom. Mr.. Pugh Of Ohio in
quired whether persons in Massachusetts,
had not been removed from Office owing to
their political opinions and REFERRED par
ticularly to Mr.. Loring, U. 5. Commission.
or in Massachusetts,, for executing tho fugi-
tive slave law, and asked how Mr.. Wilson
justified Massachusetts,. Mr.. Wilson did
not believe that was parallel case. We
(he sadly believe tho fugitive slave law to be
unconstitutional, inhuman and unchrstian.
Prof. lIendrck had performed q service to
liberty, and was crushed by the south.-
Mr., Loring performed q service FOR slavery,
and we crushed him.
A SpuyEY PREACHER. Rev. Thomos Starr
King is known as one Of the "star" lcctur-
crs of the day, and his services are always
in demand during tho winter. And he &c
cepts the calls made so generally that his
parishioncrs complained of his neglect Of
their interest. These complaints came to
Mr.. Kings ears, and he recently made them
the subject of discourse, in which he justi.
fed his own conduct, and then told his con-
gresation that II was only necessary for
them to give him q hint and he would 90,
rs the salary they paid was not sufficient for
him without tho additional resort to public
lectrring, and he told them they need not
withhold the expression Of their feelings out
Of regard to him, for he could get u larger
salary elsewhere.
AprREnENDED CoNYLicr OF AUTHORITY
The Boston correspondent Of the New York
rost writes:
sour supreme court is much exercised by
the fear that 1t will, ut no remote day, DO
brought into direct collision with the su-
preme court of tho United States. The lat.
ter tribunal is pretty sure to decide that
owners oi slaves have the right to take their
property just where thee please in the union
and If they should bring them here, our SUI
preme court will most assuredly set them
free, IL called upon to act, and the whole
power Of the state will DO used TO maintain
this ruling. We have no idea Of submit
ting to the centralizing decisions ola court
that is now dcnominatcd by small lawyers.
l shouldn't wonder IL our next election were
made to turn entirely upon this very point.
We shall want able, independent, strong
minded, backboned men in o6ico whom tho
hour Of trial comes -..f. .'.gi -...
