necessary as air, and brown tan is far
preferable even as matter Of beauty, to

A discQrdant Mote.

The decision Of the Supreme Court Of
the United States in the Dred Scott"
case, is most unfortunate one, inssmuch
as it has tendency to disturb, rather than
quiet the public mind, on the subject Of
slavery. Had the Judges decided the
question of jurisdiction alone, which was
the only question properly before them,
there could have been no cause of com.
plaint, however much many might have
differed in opinion. 1t is said that since
the delivery of the dissenting opinions of
Judge Mclean aud Judge Curtis, the
Chief Justice, and his associates who con-
Cured with him, have materially altered
their opinions. Such facts are calculated
to impair public confidence in this, our
highest tribunal Of justice S4njury 4

JEFFERSON on JACKsoN-Tbe private
papers Of Mr.. Webster, promise many
curious revelations. Here is the opinion
of the father of modern Democracy rela-
tive to later idol Of the same party
Il feel much alarmed at the prospect
of seeing Gen. Jackson, President. He
is one of the most unfit men know Of for
such place. He has had very little re.
speet for laws or constitutions, aud is, in
fact, an able military chief. His passions
are terrible. When | was President Of
the Senate, be was Senator, and he could
never speak on account Of the rashness Of
his feelings. l have seen him attempt it,
and as often choke with rage.
His passions are no doubt cooler, now he
has been much tried, since knew him,
but he is dangerous man."
