and possible extinction by being RENTED to the
condition of freedom as a calamity to be averted,
no matter at what sacrifice TO the white race, by
the contir uancs of Slavery. Mr.. Weston is also
thilauthropist but he s not able TO 60 quite such
lengths. Between the Authorization Of America
on the one hand and its occupation BY white men
on the other; between the barbarian which Slavery
of salty perpetuates, and the civilization which
Freedom carries in its train he is inclined to prefer
the latter even if the contact and the competition
of an Inferior with superior race should result IN
the gradual disappe arance of the former.
Az to the political bearings of the question, Mr
Weston contends that the letting the shareholders
have their own way as to the extension OF Slavery,
instead Of perpetuating the Union-which is made
the excuse for their yiediDg-does, in fact, but
weaken it. Those who take the lead in all these
Slavery ExteniiOn projects, scarcely Attest to deny
that their ultimate and cherished purpose is the
overthrow of the exciting Government, and the
f rmation Of o new Southern cSnfederacy. Such
was the stimulus to the acquisition Of Texas, aud
,uch 10 the stimulus to the acquisition of Cuba, and
new slices from Mexico, and lOdgment in Central
America.
We have touched, and that but slightly, on few
Of the topics treated by Mr. Weston. His book Is
full Of facts carefully collected, and Of pregnant
suggestions upon them. 1t may hardly suit the
temper Of those who look for emanci patton as
speedy thing, but it scarcely leaves doubt as to
the final result.

The following funny theatrical reminis.

cious, as here revived by the N. Y. Home
Journal. Its old, but well WORTH repeat
ing
Billy Williams, the English comedian
now deceased, was one of the best-natured
men alive, and although without education,
a capital comic actor. Billy was. a regular
cockney in his conversation, and paid no
attention to the rules of Murray's gram
mar. An amusing conversation between
him and VIM. +. Burton, the theatrical
manager, is thus related by a friend of the
parties Billy sat in his usual seat, and
ssyas endcavoring to make himself agreeable
tothosc around him. Bnrton, who, de-
lighted in quzzing Biay, made some in
quiries of him relate to-a horse >. belonging
to Mr.. IIamblin, which seemed to arouse
BILLY, and he thus commenced his reply
Now Burton, III tell you all about tlIat
'orse. fousee, when first arrived, said
to Ambli: tom, 1 wants. An 'orse, lave
always been used to ave an 'orse, and 4
would like to ave one" 'Billy," says he,

great deal Of money, and will not permit
him to be misused ; but if you want to ride
him you may, and my stage-mauager, Tom
Flynn, will 60 with you to the stable" So
down | goes 10 the stable, with Tom Flynn,
and told the man to put the saddle on him."
"On Tom Flynn O. said Burton. "No.
on the 'orsc. So after talking to Tom
Flynn awhile, mounted him." "What,
mounted Tom Flynn? ?" NO, the 'orse, and
then shook hands with him and rode off,"
"Shook hand with the horse, Billy 2" az"
d--nit, with Tom Flynn, and then l
rode offup the Bowery, and who should I
meet i'll front Of the Bowcry theatre but
Tom Am6in; so got of, and told the
boy to hold him by the head" "IIold

bin and after that, mounted him again, ,
and went out of town" "Mounted liam.
bin again 2" "No, the 'orse, and when
get tc Barnum's, who would be there but
Tom Flynn-he'd taken another 'orsc, and
rode out ahead Of me. SO told tile 'ostler
to tie him up" "Iie Tom Flynn up I"
NO. damn it, the 'orse. and we had a
drink there" "You and the horsein ,"No.
me and Tom Flynn, Now, look here, Bur
ton, every time Isay 'orse, you say Am
bin, and every time say Ambiin, you
say 'orse. Now, I'll be 'anged if I. tell Won
any more about it." Billy felt his digni-
ty insultel, and no coaxing on the part Of
Burton couLl induce him to finish the re-.
cital.

This book is nll that's left me now -
Tears will unbidden start
With lettering lip and tl,robbing brow,

For many generations past,
Here is our family tree;
My mothers hands this Bible clasp'd;
She, dying gave it me.
All we'll do ! remember those
Whose names those records bear.
Who round the hearth stone used TO clos
After the evening prayer,
And speak Of what these pages said
In those my heart would thrilll
Thougl, they are with the silent dead,

My father read the holy book
To brothers, sisters dear;
How calm was my poor mothers look,
Who lear'd Gods word to heari

What thronging memories Come!

Thy constancy I've tride;
Where all were fnlse found tile true,

In teaching me the way to live,
1t taught me how to die.

LACE, to get it fastened ; the shoe was near

the hoo, although they had been clinched
in the manner Universally 'practised. The
smith remarked that all the other shoes
were loose, and would soon drop of, when

place them ; and then did perceive the

How TO Cook PorAroEs.-Do people
ever think of the immense waste Of pota-
toes as they arc treated in this city? Let
me tell you how potatoes are cooked in Ian
cashinc, England. They are peeled first,
and boiled gently till nearly Soft, and then
the water is poured off aud all the steam
evaporateI, when they are poured into q
dish and "a few slices Of bacon laid on tho
top, and brought hot from the table, where
they are eaten with a relish, and for good
reason-they are truly good. Such people
do not eat much bread. The potatoes are
so dry and mcaly that they are excellent
substitute for bread, and very unlike the
miserable waxy things that we eat here.

The GRowrn OF PEARLs.-The late
discoveries Of pearls in New jersey have
revived the old discussion as to the causes
Of their growth. The best settled scicnti-
ic opinion appears.t to he, that they are a
diseased, purulcnt secretion Of the shel-fisl',
originating in wound, and reaching their
full size in about seven years, at which, Pc
Rod they become fatal to the aui,nal, aud
tl,ercupon lose their worth and lustre.
It has generally been supposed that
some minute substance, such as grain of
sand, having become lodged within the
shell Of the creature, produces irritation,
like pebble in ones boot, and being un-
able to get it out, the tormented ami
NAL makes the best of the difficulty by
covering it with II calcarcous cxcretion.
Linnacns suggested piercing small holes
in the shell Of the oyster and then rcstor-
ing it to its original bed. But, the expert
mcnt, on being tried, was unsuccessful in
producing pearls. The Chinese, however,
manage to grow them by introducing into
the shell thread offinc silk upon WHICH is
strung small bead Of mother -of-pcarl.
The oyster covers this with the vefitablc
pearl secretion. 1t might be worth while
for the Jcrseymen to try the experiment.

General wa,tar

From an excellent paper in this months
Black~ood, We extract the following sketch of
this adventurer:
glance at the personal history of the re-
markable man who conducted this daring
enterprise may not be uninteresting Gen.
Walkers father had been banker in Scotland,
and emigr ated to the United States in 1920.
Walker himself was born in 1924, but mani
fcsted rowing disposition. At an carly age
he graduated successfully in law, physc and
divinity; travelled for year in Europe !;
returned to the States, and become the editor
of newspaper in New Orleans thence pro.
cceding to San Francisco in California in n
similar capacity, which he relinqnisl,cd to take
command of the Sonora expedition. Gen.
Walker is but little over five feet; Jonr His
features are described as coarse and impossible;
his square chin and long jaw denote character,
but his lips arc full, and his mouth is not
well formed his eyes are universally spoken
or as the striking feature in his face-of sin.
gular light grey, they are large and fixed
that that in daguerreotype the eyslid is
scarcely visible.
ellis manner is remarkably self possessed !;
and some of his most intimate friends, who
have been with him throughout the most trying
scenes of his Nicarngunn experiences, have
assured me that under no circumstances have
they ever observed him to change countcnance,
even to laugh, or to alter in the smallest degycc
his slow and precise mode Of diction. lie is
ut all times taciturn, and when he does speak
it is directly to the point. lie manifests con-
temptuous Indifference to danger without being
Sekless, and altogether seems better qualified
to inspire confidence and respect among lawless
men than to shine in CIVILIZED society. lie IS
nscctic in his habits and his career has hith-
crto shown him to bo truly careless Of nc
quiring wealth. Highly. ambitious, it is only
due to him to say that his aspirations, however
little in accordance they may be with the
moral code in vogue at the present day, are
beyond riches. lie has n'fixed faith in the star
Of his destiny, and he doubtless will be brand
cd by the civilized nations Of Europe an
unprincipled advcnturer or a hcaven.born
hero, according as lie fails or succeeds in his
daring enterprise"
