were its attractions ever so great. The only
other mode of making new slave States, with
in the present limits OF the Union. would be
by subdivision of Texas. If divided at all
it must be by the course of her rivers-the
eastern from the western portion.
There are now no slaves West Of Neueces
river, and none can be safely carried there
and if the Western be ever separated from
the other portions of the State, it will assured
ly become free State. The South has-n
our view-no reason to hope to gain more
slave territory We do not believe it worth
while now to discuss the rights of squatter
sovereignty or the power of Congress over the
subject when there is paramount law OF
nature and circumstances against which hu-
man effort, and congressional legislation are
futile. The whole influence and power OF
the South unopposed could not create new
slave State. in our present territory, if it
had unlimited authority by the constitution
and laws. 1t is folly to fight against this
shadow of fear; this bugbear of fanatcism;
this ghost of dead en- envy, that is raised or ex-
orcised as may suit the purposes of party
leaders.
We believe Congress has full Legislative
power over the territories, and may exclude
slavery; but this has become an ohjectlesI
subject for party and newspaper discussion
for the laws Of nature and events have already
fixed 1t, and the matter will soon be settlet
by decision Of the Supreme Court, to which
Congress, as we'll as the people, must submit
whatever may be their feelings and specula
tons.
So long as there is no practical question no
the prospect of any, whereon we can act O
have right to advise, the agitation of tn,
subject can only be kept up to subserve ant
foster party spirit, whose tendency--if it b
not its deliberate desgn-is to exasperate sec
tional preiudces-to weaken the national sen
timent, and gradualy-by mutual dissention
to prepare the people for disunion. Agains

BOGUS ms. Co's.-We have an exposure
of the gross frauds practiced upon the public
by the establishment of bogus Insurance
Companies, in spite of the law of the State of
New York which requires certain amount
Of funds to be actually paid in before the Com
pany is allowed 20 do business. The pay
ment of the sum must be proven to the comp
troller of the State, who issues his certificate
of the fact. An Investigation was recently
made into the affairs of the Webster In
Esurance Company, an exploded col csrn, which
disclosed the mode Of paying up this solid,
substantial capital which the law requires as
the basis of the business. In this instance
| it appears the Insurance Company gave their
memorandum checks to a l.. Island Bank an d
the Bank gave in return certified check for
the amount of the memorandum checks
| The certified check was exhibited to the
comptroller and on it, he issued his certificate
that the required capital had actually been
paid in. The certificate being obtained, the
certified check was taken lack to the Bank,
and the Bank gave up the memorandum
checks: and the thing was nicely arranged
without dollar of money, or cent of re-
sponsibility; and the Company were left free
to depredate upon the public, with the comp
trofEer's'. certificate that they were fully worthy
Of credit, without cent of capital or resourc
es in the whole concern.

THE STATE PRIsoN.-Snce the change in
the management OF our Penrentiary from the
lessee system to its superintendent by COM
missioners the improvement has been very
marked. Under the old system the institu-
ton did not pay its expenses. The commits
soners took possession of it under many disad-
vantageous circumstances, incident to a change
of system and government. Notwithstanding
these, most decided improvement has been
made in the discipline and government Of the
institution, ir the food clothing and habits of
the prisoners, and the establishment has been
made to pay its own expenses, and leave a
balance of profit, that will amount TO over S.
900 at the end of the first SIX months of the
new administration. The commissioners de-
serve much credit for producing such taYoIa-
BILE results,

Prosperity OF Ireland.

The famine and pestilence which ravaged
Ireland and compelled an enormous emigra-
ton were supposed at the time to have plung-
ed the country into hopeless depression. The
effect, however, seems 10 have been to re-
Ileve 1t of its surplus population, and the En-
numbered Estate Court" it is stated has now
disposed of real estate amounting to one hun
bred millions OF dollars. This has altered the
entire state OF things, and has transferred the
lands to those possessed of the capital, skill
and industry TO cultivate and improve them. A
large portion of lands hitherto owned by
English and Scotch noblemen, are now owned
by lrishmen themselves, who have heretofore
been mere tenants, suffering under the crush
ing force OF excessive rents. Now, says the
London Times, there is comfort and content
ment among tAe peasantry and laborers, where
formerly there was nothing but idleness and
misery. Throughout the whole Island there
is not a paper that does not proclaim the
great dimlnution of the inmates OF the poor
houses. The facilities for employment are
such, that none, except the aged, the infirm,
and the orphans, are compelled to resort to
public charity and expense. The system Of
holding large estates unimproved, and heredi-
tAry grants # land not proftably employed is
fast being abolished and devided among the
occupants and workers of the soil.

NOBLE BEQUEsT.-The New Orleans Cres-
cent has the following notice of benevolent
gentleman, well known in New Orleans as an
eminent and successful druggist, who recently
died in New York State:
We copied, a few days ago, a paragraph
from a Northern paper, stating that a South
ern gentleman of large fortune had after max
ing donations to the amount of $1,000 TO the
House of Industry, Five Points, New York,
bequeathed the sum of $4,000 to the institu-
ton, and $1,000 to Mr.. and Mrs. Pease, Five
Points missionaries. This gentleman was Mr.
S. V. Sickles, founder of the well known
house Of Sickles & Co., established in 1852, in
the place in Canal street where it is now locat-
ed. Mr. Sickles' bounty was not confined 10
the Five Points House ofIndustry. To other
charitable societies in The South, and in other
parts of the country, he bequeathed, in the ag-
gregate, upwards of $4,000, besides IegA
cies to relatives &c. The residue of his estate
was devised to the municipal government Of
New Orleans, for the purpose of establishing
a city dispensary, to supply the poor gratuIt
ously with medicine and medical advice.

Salaries of Judges and Governor.


press of the State of all parties, seems to be in
favor of making the Offices of Judges and Gov
ernor in Indiana respectable, by inducing, by
an increase Of salary-men fitted by nature
and education to become aspirants for those
important positions.
1t is the most wretched economy in the
State, to attempt to obtain cheap service in
these highest functions of the government
Talent and capacity have market of value,
as well as corn and pork, and the State cannot
expect to prescribe her prices for them, and
obtain them, more than she could fix her price
on pork, to get good mess or clear, for the
market price of prime. The quality of the
article will be in accordance with the price
paid. 1t would be denounced as gross inhu-
manity if the State should allow only such
prices for the food for the convicts in the pen
ed meats; yet she doles out such pitiful al
lowance to the Judiciary, that the people can
get only the most adulterated sort Of justice;
anc what is more surprising, she allows the
neither brains nor education are very essential,
who live on fees, to sponge and extort from
the poor litigants, and make their income
double that of the highest functionary. We
pay very dearly for an access to the
bench of justice, but when we have
reached it, we get in many cases. but
the very cheapest and poorest kind. II
the law would reduce the tolls on the avenues
to the fountains Of justice, and give us an ar
ticle less adulterated, though at good deal
higher prices, it would be decided improve
ment upon the present system of cheap dis
pensations, that remind one of the cheap
| liquors, favored and colored to delude the
public, who take them for the genuine ar
tcles.
The gubernatorial chair will render an in
cambent of moderate fortune, bankrupt, I'M
less he resort to swamp land speculatiOns or
other Legitimate means to pay the necessary
expenses of the position. The present salary
of Governor is 81, 5O0-of the judges of the
Supreme Court, 81, 20O-Circuit Judges, 81,
900, which are hardly equal to the salaries
paid to first rate clerks and good journeymen
mechanics in many branches of business. The
present compensation of all these officers
should be doubled at once. Nothing but the
love Of the ermine and its pure and exalted
honors could have induced many Of the able
men in our present judiciary to have accept
ed their positions But their examples are
an excention to the shirt of the are which
measures honors too much by the wealth that
flows with them. We cannot expect to find
but few men superior to their day and gene
ration, and now when the distinctions of merit
are, in great measure, broken down, public
honors are paltry things without pay.

YOUTHFUL HERoIsM.-On Friday afternoon
as little girl, daughter of Mr.. George Stout,
of Hartford, Connecticut, was riding upon a
sled down the hill on Mill street, near the Lit
tie River, she slipped into the river. No one

of his life, caught his sisters clothes and
brought her safely to the land.

money, of which he got scarcely enough to
