SHALL SLAVERY TAKE POSSESSION OF
THIS NATION, OR SHALL FREE
DOM RULE?

Many good-natured, Union-loving men hoped
that the administration of Buchanan would be an
improvement upon that of Franklin Pierce. We
we're not of that number. We at one time be-
lieged that the administration of John Tyler would
stand forever in the history of this country as the
worst that could be, so far as the rights of the
Free States concerned. We were Rstaken.
The Slave power has increased rapidly ever since
that time, and now it has reached point which is
fearful to contemplated. First, it subducd the Ex-
ecutive Government, second, the Legislative; and
now it grAsps tho Judiciary The grand object of
the oligarchs has been perfected. They hare made
Siarery National, Freedom Sectional
According to the recent decision of the Supreme
CouIt there is not one foot of free territory
belonging to the Union, outside of the free States.
The Wilmot Provso applied to Oregon and Mime

can now be taken there and worked, with the
shield of the Federal Constitution to guard and
protect their masters in the management of this,
their property. The Territories have become one
great slave pen. How long will it be before this
power will apply the same principles to the States2
CulOred men are now declared not 20 be citizens
of the United States, they arc outlawed from all
claims to citizenship in the land of their nativity
in the home of their fathers. Like the Bohemian
Magraubin, "they have home, no country. ,
They are simply property; they are as h3rses and
cattle They can be bought and sold, but they
cannot be citizens

hour arrives, there is no power in our government
or in the people to prevent the extension of the
curse, and when that hour arrives they will be
strong enough TO have slavery acknowledged and

10 carry out this Internal doctrine, the whole

The attention of County Auditors and

pectfully called to the following circu-

Commissioner, and indorsed by the
present incumbent:

Schools, COLUMBUS, April 3D.. 1854. (
The great number of questions aris-
ing under the present School Law.
and the importance of having a thor
ough understanding, by its officers, of
the provisions of the law, and uniform
policy pursued in all the counties, in
its administration, have imposed the ne
cessity of having some medium of COM
munication with those officers, and the
Commissioner has gladly availed him
self of the Ohio Journal of Education
for this purpose.
All my official decisions and opinions
have been, and will continue to be, pub
lished in the journal; and it is my
opinion that County Auditors will be
justified in subscribing for a copy for
their own use and one Cor more) for the
Board of School Examiners: and that
Township Boards may order it for the
township clerk, and the clerk of each
sub-district. and include the cost of the
same in their annual estimate of money
to be raised in accordance with the first
clause of tho 22d section Of the School
Law.
The copies so taken should, Of course
be kept on file in their respective offices
and be transmitted to their successors
in office.

publishing the above, will confer ia.

1a the Question settledp

There is something irresistibly ludi-
crous i'm the confident assurances Of the
Democratic journals that the slavery
question is now finally settled. They
tell us that there is no appeal from the
decision Of the Supreme Court; that
Congress cannot now legislate upon the
subject of slavery, nor the people agi-
tate il, nor parties quarrel about it; and
the announcement is prcfaced by such
elegant expressions as, "Republicanism
Knocked on the head, "agitation ST.
lenced ""nigger worshippers put down" "
&c. Do these sanguine gentlemen for
get that all this has been done several
times before2 The slavery question has
been settled, we cannot remember how
often, within few years past. 1t was
settled in 1850, by the passage of the
Compromise Measures, including the
Fugitive Slave Law; it was settled in
1852, when the Baltimore Conventions
resolved that it icas settled, should stan
settled, and should not be agitated any
more it was settled in 1854, by the
Kansas Nebraska Bill and now it is for
ever settled by the awful voice of the
Supreme Court And yet, remarkable
as it is, the more the question is set
tied, the more it disturbs the political ell
ements. The ghost of agitation will
not down, even at the bidding of Chief
Justice fancy; and at every political
convocation it returns, and pushes men
from their official seats, in spite of their
efforts to Danish the unwelcome guest.
To say that the decision, which chan
ges slavery from a local to a national
institution, will or can withdraw the
subject from Congress or the political
arena, is to say a very absurd thing
Its effects will be exactly contrary
The South, in procuring the nation
dlization of their system, have made ev-

its character, and rendered the unlimi.

and proper. 1t cannot be put off now
with the plea that it is local concern

Reason and Common Sense.

Our readers may remember we have on sew
eTal occasions spok en- in very eulogst'c terms
OF preparation which DR.. Seth S. IIance, Of
los Baltimore street, Baltimore, Md, has dis
covered for the cure Of Epileptic Fits. Now,
in doing so, We have been actuated by the very
best motives, viz: the alleviation of human suf-
lering. From circumstances which have late
ly come to our knowledge, we fear there is
certain class of persons who arc not disposed
TO try this remedy i'm common sense man
ner. We allude TO the fact Of selecting a par
tlcular case in town where perhaps there are
SIX or eight cases, and trying il on one case.
Now, perhaps the case selected might be the
only one of tho whole number that il would
not cure. This is neither doing Themselves
nor the medicine justice. lf dozen persons

who has Fits should try il for reasonable

Scarcity in the Northwest.


The Chicago Tribune of late date
says:
Even in our own State thousands of
men who usually have corn and oats to
to sell, have been for a month past and
are yet buying from their neighbors to
keep their cattle and horses alive until
few warm and pleasant days bring out
the new grass. All along the NIissis-
slppi on the Iowa side, there is the
greatest distress among farmers for feed,
and many of them, so great is the scar
city, are losing entire herds by starva-
ton. A gentleman from Maquoketa
tells us that in that region-by the way,
one Of the richest and most productive
parts of Iowa-cattle are dying by hun
dreds, and that farmers who hauled their
surplus to the river and sold it in the
fall, are now buying it back by wagon
loads at three times the prices they got
for it six months ago. In the country
west of Davenport, and about Iowa
City, the same state of things exists. A
Quincy, the demand for corn to take
over into Missouri, is much greater than
the supply; and one distillery at least is
buying grain at St. Louis and sending
it up the river by the boat-load, to avoid
stopping work, as it would do if obliged
to depend upon home supplies. At Ke-
okuk and Burlington the demand is very
active and the supply small, as it is, in
deed, in every other part of the West
from which we have heard Along the
st, Louis and Chicago road there is more
corn, but not half the usual quantity
Along the Galena Air Line, Galena and
Chicago, the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy and the Chicago and Rock Isl
and roads, hardly a crib full is to be
be seen. In one word, the cattle have
eaten up the entire surplus of corn, oats,
hay, and in many places, the pota-
toes also. The winter has exceeded its
usual length by fully forty days; and
in those days the mischief has been done
