Negro Suffrage in New York.

The decision in the bred Scott case has
had the effect upon the New York Legisla-
ture TO cause the passage Of bill for amend
ing the Constitution of that State in such q
way that negroes may be permitted to vote
without the property qualification. Says
the Albany Journal
The Constitutional Amendment is adopt
ed. By very large vote-an unanimous
one SO far as Republicans are concerned
the joint resolution granting the right Of
suffrage to all citizens, without distinction
of color, has been passed through both
Houses. 1t has yet to be adopted by nnoth-
er Legislature, and subsequently ratified by
the people at the polls before it can take
effect.
The experiment is not new one. Col
ored men have voted in Massachusetts, ever
since the Declaration of Independence. -
They have voted in Maine ever since her
admission as State, and in Rhode Island
ever since she had written Constitution
New Hampshire and Vermont granted them
the right to vote, upwards Of half century
ago.

Scott decision, and says:
"This preacher has taken more atrocious
and reasonable ground than the most radi-

gard the decicion Of the Supreme Court as

The Use of Opium.


nelly says the use of opium as an celebrating
agent is much moro frequent in the commu-
nifty than many suppose. 1t is believed that
a large number of sedentary and studious
men, and many clergymen, are in the habit
ual use of this drug, and that under its slim
illus, many literary works and sermons are
written, and lawyers pleas made. 1t is
known that some eminent divines, now de-
ceased, impaired their intellects by the use
Of opium. The drug, probably, is used as
much among Lawyers as among ministers,
and much more among ladies in fashionable
life than in either of the learned professions
AT meeting held in Boston, it was stated
by one of the Oldest and most experienced
physicians, that he knew a lady who took
seventeen teaspoonfuls of laudanum every
morning, to set her up for the day; and ii
had to be made Of the best opium, as she
would know in minute if it were in the
least adulteraterated! AS is we'll known
many eminent English literary character:
have been addicted to the pernicious habit Of
opium eating. Besides the celebrated DE-
Quincy, may be mentioned Wilberforce, the
philanthropist, DR.. Isaac Miner, Dean o.
Carlisle, the first Lord Erskine, Samuel Tay.
lor Coleridge, and others. Opium is power.
full poison, and although it creates tempo
rary elysium in the mind Of the devotee, its
results are most disastrous. Mr.. Tiffany
IN late work an the Canton Chinese, y
gives the following sketch OF the effects OIL
opium:
"The victim inhales his allotted quantity
and his senses swim around him; he feel.
its subtle nature; he floats from earth, as il
on pnions. He would leave his humble sta.
ton, his honest toll, his comfortable home
He would be great. He runs with ease the
paths of distinction; he distances rivals
Wealth and honor wait upon him; the nigh
| ty take him by the hand. His dress is
costly, his fare sumptuous, his home pal
ace, and he revels IN the pleasures he ha:
read Of and believed 10 be fiction. Music
sounds through his lofty halls, sages assem-
BILE to do him honor, women Of the brightes
beauty throng around him; he is no longe
poor, lowly and despised; but demi.god
The feast is spread, the sparkling cup filled
to the brm with hot wine, and he rises I,
welcome one whom he has left far behind il
the path OF glory; to tender to him triumph
ant courtesy; and, as he advances a step h
reels and staggers wildly, and competitors
guests, Ministries, magnifcence, all fade from
his vision, and the gray, cold reality of dawl
breaks upon his heated brain, and he know
that all was naught, and that he is the SAM
nameless creature that he has ever BEEN
A cold shudder agitates his frame; weak ant
worthless he seeks the air, but finds no re
lief He cannot turn his thoughts to hi
calling; he is unfit for exertiun; his days pas
in sloth and bitter remorse. And when nigh
comes in gloom, he seeks again the sOrceres
into whose power he has sunk, and who's
finger mocks while i. beckons him on.,'

News FROM NIcARAGUA.--The N. Y,

of Walkers success in Nicaragua. His
position is one Of triumph. He has achiev-

the cost Of severe losses to them, and triv.
ial ones 10 his own forces, The allies are
represented as thoroughly demoralised, their

MAJ. RoLLINs,-A correspondent of the
St. Louis Leader says that on the uppe,
Missouri, in the ''region round about" Lex
ington, Maj. Rollins will not carry half the
votes of his party, in consequence of having
declared in speech made in the Legisla-
ture, 'rhat if he lived in Kansas he rould
cote for making ii a free Ta!e." Now we
are not Maj Rollins special apolOgist or
defender, but in justice TO truth as well as
to the history of the times, we will here
state that Maj. Rollins made no such de-
claration as the above. We were within a
few feet of him when he made the speech
referred to. The question was propounded
10 him as to what would be his position
with regard to making Kansas slave State
were he citizen of that Territory?-and
his reply was, that that would depend upon
circumstances, that he would act in the
premises just as he believed would be for
the best interests of the Territory as q
citizen of Missouri, he believed it would be
to our interests if Kansas were made a slave
State, and as citizen of Missouri he would
SO vote, if called upon SO to do. This i.
what he did say, in substance at least, if moi
the very language used. LET justice BIT
