Gov Wise on Emigration to Virginia.
Some Of the fre.eaters Of Virginia have
almost consumed themselves with wrath
because Eli TnAYrR proposed TO bring a
few thousand industrious Yankees TO the
work Of rejuvenating "Old Virginny."-
Gov. WISE takes a more sensible view OF
the subject, as will be seen by the fellow
extract from late letter:
Gov. WISE ON EMIeRATioS TO VIRGINIA
Gov. Wise, having some time since, been
written TO in relation 10 Eli Thayer's EN-
igration scheme, replied that he knew moth
ing of the object beyond what was stated in
the newspapers. Although stsrnly Op-
posed to all associations or combinations
likely to impair the value of property in
slaves, he thus sets forth his views OF
peaceful and lawful emigration to Virginia:
Our State needs settlers to develop her
vast resources; and | would, from policy
and without fear, encourage emigrants TO
come to our waste lands and improve them,
to increase our population, our revenue, and
our State and federal strength. And so
conscious am | of the power Of Virginia 10
protect and defend her institutions, ard the
persons and property of her citizens, In her
own limits at least, that | would neither feel,
nor betray any fear, if felt, which would
repel lawful emigration and settlement -
That State must be weak, indeed, which
would, from mere apprehension, arrest the
progress of her development lest she could
not preserve her peace, protect her persons
and property and enforce her laws. have
no fear, therefore, that any emigration
scheme intended TO affect Virginia can en-
danger either her honor, her rights, her
possessions, or her peace in her own limits.
No matter what may be the newspaper
rumors, however calculated TO alarm the
imid or TO excite the excitable. or to add
fuel to the fires Of agitation, my counsel is
calmly to invite settlers TO our lands, to Of
fer them every facility and favor of good
neighborhood; TO give them all the protec-
ton Of peace; to encourage them in increas-
ing plenty, by multiplying the hnnds and
vacations Of labor-and to allow them 10 a.
bide with us under our laws SO long as they
will obey those laws and respect all rights
under them. Indeed, know of no laws,
State or federal, which do not require this
rule 10 be observed towards all immigrants
OF good behavior. The right TO remove
from one State and to settle in another,
complying with the laws, is reciprocal
right of the citizens Of the respective
States, under the constitution of the United
States. Why not calmly wait, then, for
the fact as it may arise? If the act and the
intent of immigration shall manifest them
selves to be unlawful, we ought to enGour-
age settlement, and are bound to extend
protection 10 innocent and lawful immigra-
ton. AT all events, let us be manly in our
action, and not move from the promptings
OF mere apprehension and fears.

WHITE SLAVE TRArrio.-Our readers
will have noticed that societies have been
formed in the East for the purpose Of ex-
porting girls TO the West. From the James
town (Wisconsin) Independent, we have
the following account of the first sale;
"a charge Of ten dollars Ito pay Their
travelling expenses, we suppose was made
for each person, the money TO be paid by
the employer, and to be deducted from the
future earnings of the young woman. The
Tree church was thrown open, the young
women occupying theseats in rows, some
of them crying. Customers then walked
along the ranks with perfect GOODNESS, ex'
aiming their condition one by one, and, a:
they found one suitable, they planked the
cash and carried off their prize"

Why Gov. Wise Bolted.

Gov, Wise detection from the Administra.
ton has a secret history, which, in the pro
gress Of the quarrel between the Demo
cratic leaders, cannot be kept secret mucl
longer.
The President started out with the policy
Of securing TO the people Of Kansas fail
vote upon their Constitution. He sent Gov
Walker to Kansas TO execute that policy
For while he stood firm, and wrote letter
to Gov. Walker, (not yet published, bu
shown by Gov. w. to many persons, } assur
ing him Of the support OF the Administration
"Let Georgia and alabama and mississippi
holcI," said the President in this letter, :"
,UN stand by you." That the Presiden
used substantially this language, is a wei
authenticated fact.
In the end, the "howling" became SO ter
rife, that poor Buchanan was frightened on
Of his wits, changed his policy and abandon
ed Gov. Walker.
Before he changed his policy, he had ar
ranged with Gov. Wise to make a diversion
against the fre-eaters in Virginia. Gov
Wise and the Richmond Enquirer, unde
Gov. Wise's influence, were to support the
administration programme IN Kansas. anC
the administration were to support Gov
Wise for the United States SenatorshiI
against Mr.. Hunter. Gov. Wise arrived
here, to complete and perfect these arrange
ments, on the very day that the Union an
nounced tho Presidents submission to tn,
nullifiers. Gov. Wise went home, and ha
been since nursing his wrath which break

has his scheme Of defeating Mr.. Hunter
blown up, but he himself has been draw
into commitments upon the Kansas question
which destroy his Democratic standing, dis
abled as he is from making any effectiv,
fight by the treachery of the President
Gov. Wise is a betrayed man an / as a Dem
ocratic politician, ruined. If he does no
compass some ''revenge," even if "viotory'
be unattainablo, it will prove that age ha
wonderfully softened his temper.

no matter who might hold power in the
Territory. Experience and history had de-
monstrated that order, maintained by re-
gular soldiery, was despotism, and, peace
only thus preserved, was the cemetery oil
liberty. He would not uphold peace in
Kansas on such terms. Ii the freemen OF
that Territory could not maintain peace
among themselves. they were unfit TO be
freemen.
Mr.. Pearce applauded the act of Com
Paulding, but would not vote for medal "a
be given him. Mr.. Slidell disapproved oil
the conduct OF Com. Paulding, and hoped the
President would recall him. He equally
disapproved of the motives and course oil
Walker, and thought Walker had showed
incapacity, both in the council and on the
field.
HoUsr, JAN. 29th.--Mr. Shaw, Of Iii
nois, made Union Speech, in which he
denounced the Lecompton Constitution.
Mr.. Coming reviewed the financial policy
OF the Administration and declared that q
bankrupt law, applicable to local banks
such as the President had recommended,
would be attended by disasters.
Mr., HrcKMAN, Democrat OF Pennsyl-
vania, dissented from the Kansas policy oil
the President, declaring that policy was a
violation of the principles of the Kansas
Nebraska Act. He ridiculed the idea OF
the President that the question of slavery
embodied all the domestic institution" Of a
State, Why was it, Mr.. Hickman asked
that no Democrat could stand the atmosphere

The Leeompton Constitution.

The Louisville Democrat thus boldly de-
nounces this constitution, and all attempts
to force it upon the people by Congress, or
otherwise:
Let the movement be pushed, and we
shall soon iiLd the protest incorporating
and Indignant, We shall tell tue democracy
of the south the truth, however uapalatable
it may be to some of them. This Increment
1c,N be supported by no party in the free states.
The northern democracy will not go to the
black republicans; the differences between
them are irreconoilable; but it is equally
that they will not support the south in this
movement. They could not if they would,
and would not if they could 1t is not worth
while TO tell lis what they will do. We know
it noiy that they are beginning to speak, just
as well as we shall know IT after they are
done speaking on the subject. II it were
possible to push this matter through Con
gress, ii lcouid raise storm Of agitation
surprising anything that we hare yet lrit-
messed. HwOuId be completely sectional, for
ii you'd hare no support in The free States.-
How long it will last in It's effect, none can
foresee. The south hazards all this for no
possible good; nor is it demanded of her by
any neoessity;while it is plainly against her
creed of popular and states rights.
LET us take in Kansas, and localze the
strife" it is said. We can't imagine low
any one can ilatter himself that the strife
will be localized by any such policy. The
very opposite result will be produced, as
sure as the sun rises and sets; and ue Of he
souh ,oouLf BE in Hie orong, The act Of
taking in Kansas with the Lecompton con-
stltution can't be detinded. The northern
democracy will no! defend il. They will
repudiato it, unanimously and emphalioally.
They could resist the Willnot proviso. II
was unjust and unfair. They could repeal
the Missouri compromise, for that was right
and defensible, but even that required all
their power in stemming the torrent OF sec
tionsl prejudice. Now they are required
10 take free state into the Union with a
slave state constitution; to legalize slavery
where the people don't want it. They can't
do it.

This new style of Pictures is fast taking the place
of all other methods Of producing Photographic pic
lures, as they possess all the beauty OF light and
shade so much desired in likeness Of ones self; at
the same time they cannot be surpassed in beauty
of finish and depth oftone. hepicture is taken up

giving the true position of the subject; and the time
Of sitting Is reduce 10 about onethird; therefore
the beauty of expression is preserved in all it,

Coon TASTE IN DREss.-A Young lady
in one of the leading circles in Washington,
was complimented by a gentleman on the
simplicity and good taste of her dress; at an
evening party. She replied:
81 am glad you like my dress; it cost just
seven dollars, and | made every stitch of it
myself"
When our young ladies pride themselves
upon the home manufacture and cheapness
of their attire, instead of its exrensiveness
and foreign importation, we shall have fewer
broken" fathers and husbands.

NINETEEN MoNTEs WITHOUT FooD-
DEATH.-We learn from the Albany Times,
that Mrs. Haynes, OF the town of Day, Sar-
atoga county, N. Y, whose case we de-
tailed some time since, and who lived nine
teen months without food or drink, died a
week or two ago. She remained insensi-
BILE fifteen months of the period and up to
few days OF her death, when she seemed to
revive, and spoke occasionally. After her
death her body was opened, and a snake
five feet long and halt an inch thick, was
taken from the stomach! 1t was alive
when removed, but died soon after. The
case is very remarkable one, and it is to
be regretted that it was not subjected to
scientific examination.

WE beg leave respectfully TO inform our

for delivery, and we will be greatly obliged by
early statements. Our claims, as well as our en-

There is disposition evincei in many parts of
the country toremodel the general system of bust
ness by the nominal adoption of exclusive cash
payments, bSs yearly accounts, &C., but we have
no confidence in such movements, as they do not
reach the true difficulty. The theory upon which
business is generally done amongst us is good
enough, ttS the practice lrhich is rrOng. What we
all want is a well grounded confidence that debts
are not simply good, but will be paid at maturity
and II IS this Feature which gives business its true
vitality and checks evil tendencies.
! We have annually to thank many OF our friends
not only for liberal bills, but for payment suffi-
GENTLY close to maturity for all practical uses, but
too prevalent careessness on this subject here
as elsewhere has been the great consuming evil at
tending the transaction Of husness-its most pal
pable effect has been upon the merchant, but the
injurious influence has oppressed the business and
| prosperity OF the entire country and formed a
principal element in the fierce money panic which
has just swept over us.
1t is only by the application Of sound and prac-
tca principles to the details of business that we
could Offer the fullest advantages TO our custom
