EMIGRATION sOUTHWARD.

OPINIONS OF GEORGE PEABODY, THE BANKER.
Mr.. George Peabody. the eminent American, whose
visit to this country has been the subject Of frequent
newspaper comment, both in consequence Of the re-
cepton he has met with, and the generosity he has
displayed in the endowment Of several admirable in
situations IN return, srepOrted, since the completion
of his tour in the Southern and Western States to
have expressed some opinions which, from such a
source, and relating, they do to subjects which he
perfectly understands, entitled to considerable
attention.
This gentleman finds the United States in con
ditiOn Of general prosperity, Of which he had no
adequate conception; but a whole he considers
the Southern States occupying the most solid and
permanent position Of them all The great staple
Of cotton makes the whole world forever tributary
to them. This is something which at present they
alone produce in such quantities as adequately to
supply the looms Of Europe and our own country,
and without such we may almostsay the world would
90 naked. In the Northern States, the industrial
pursuits Of men are liable to great commercial
changes. The form and the character Of manufac-
tured articles, the course of trade the demand for
shipping, and the price of -four are all matters Of
frequent and dangerous fluctuations but cotton, un-
der the impulse Of an increasing demand, and the
cheapness Of It's machinery-for novelties, is a
basis on which its producers may solidly and IN
fearingly repOse.-AsW York Herald

An INTERESTING DIVORCE CAsE.-In the absence
of a new case Of mysterious murder or of clerical
adultery, the free" society of Boston have got
up an interesting divorce case. Some time ago, q
young man by the name of SUMNER was whipped so
severely by two men named DALTON and COBURN,
for alleged intercourse with their wives that he died
shortly after. DALTON has since applied for di-
vorce from his wife the ground of improper inter
course with SUMNER, and the case is now on trial.
The Boston papers are filed with the 81 exciting
scenes of the Court room. The following item
from the published proceedings, will give some idea
of the general details:
All the letters we're read in court Yesterday, and
during the whole time Mrs. Dalton was weeping
and even Mr.. Cove, her father himself was much
affected. The deepest stiffness prevailed in court
and the most intense interest was manifested. Fol-
lowing close upon two hours of excitement, Mr.
Cove was called to the stand still much affected to
give his testimony, and he had hardly answered a
half dozen questions, when Mrs Dalton fell back
into her mothers arms her face flushed to the tenn
pies and in q moment was insensible Mr.. Emerson.
her brOther-in-aw, and others of her relations
took her in their and bore her from the court
room, followed by her parents. Her head hung help
lessly back over the shoulder Of Mr. Emerson, and
with flushed cheeks eyes closed and mouth half dis
closing her white teeth, she presented beautiful
but sad picture.
Mr.. Dalton himself was evidently alarmed, after
his wife left the room, sat like statue with his
hands over his mouth, if trying to subdue his
feelings, whatever they may have been, his face
meanwhile being crimson. Ten minutes elapsed,
and all remained breathess, whom word was brought
in which induced Judge Merrick to order adjourn
ment for the day.
Mrs. Dalton, on being carried to the adjacent
clerks room, remained in the same condition for
over fifteen minutes, Notwithstanding the vigorous
application Of the usual restoratYes, and when the
physician who had been sent for arrived she was
but just beginning to revive from the fit Suisse
quently, however, she recovered sufficiently to be
able to bear removal to her home in a vehicle
ThefOllowingisa specimen of the verses with which
the young Don was in the habit of greeting his mis-
tress:
Fly from the world, Nellie, to me,
Thou wilt never find any sincerer;
I'll give up this world, 0 Nellie forthee,
can never meet any that's nearer.
Then tell me no more, with tear and sigh,
That our love will be censured by many;
All have Their fOllies, and who viii deny
That ours is the sweetest Of any?
When your lip has met mine in communion so sweet,
Have we felt as if virtue forbid it?
Have we felt US if Heaven denied them to meeti
No ratherit was Heaven that did it.
So innocent, love, is the joy we then sip,
So little Of wrong is there in It,
That wish all my errors we're lodged on your lip,
And I'd kiss them away in minute.
These are the people who are so Mortified with the
immoraities of slavery

ran Know NOTHING CANDIDATE AND TIE
sFETHoprsT CHURCH


From remarks We have heard upon the street
and iDtimations thrown out through the press, we
infer that there wiz be effort to make the Metho-
dist Church tributary to the success Of Mr. HATToN
in his race for Governor The Patriot in WE'LL pre-
pared article headed 81 The Nominee" very adroitly
remarks;
His lSIr. Hatton's) father has been for many
years and now is an active minister OF the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church. He has undergone much
service "a an itinerant and is well known as man
of STRONG and vigorous native intellect and great
practical piety. Devoting himself TO the spiritual
interests f bis fallow-men, and being far more
secure eternal and neorrupuble treasures,
than toaccunulate the large stores Of worldly things,
he has been unable to lavish upon his family the
higher grades of scholastic advantages"
wsllmerited compliment no doubt, but what has
the mueh service as an itnerant" Methodist preach
ar to do with the Office Of Governor Of Tennessee, or
with the respective claims of the Democratic and
Know Nothing parties We can conceive Of none,
and shall regret to see matters Of this sort pressed
into political canvass. We are grati1ed to know
that Mr.. HATroS has pious father, and have only
to regret that the Church lost so good preacher
when the son turned politician. We think the church
deserves more Of sympathy than congratulation in
this matter. Be that it may, the services of Mr.
HATToNs father as ian active Minister Of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, constitute claims that
can to be cancelled in the election Of Governor,
but must be deferred to future time when he has
| cheering promises Of remembrance elsewhere and
of a more lasting reward
We have no fear tina, our opponents viii derive
any benefit from such point, and shall not trouble
ourselves therefore, to ascertain what church Gen.
HARRIS belongs. His father or grandfather may or
| may not have been ministers of the Gospel We
are well satisfied that he is opposed to mixing uI
politics with religion, and that is far desire
his opinions touching the church. If he viii make
US q good Governor by encouraging a slfe, economi
cal Democratic policy of legislation and by refus
ing the issuance of all bonds to railroad companies
until it is clearly apparent that they have complied
with the law, he can consult his own conscience OF
| Sabbath as to what Church he viii attend, and hi
party viii not complain Of him.
Christian denominations have enough difficulties t.
labor under within their immediate church organza
TONS and should not be farther crippled in order
subserve the interests of party partzans. GOOdme1
every where are already sickened with the attempt
and will resist with all their might any further efor
to connect the Church and her ministers with poit
cal controversies We trust that our opponents vii
see this and eschew such course in the opening can
vass in which event we will be relieved from farthe
aIlusion to the subject.
