SO spake Esaias: with words of flame
Tekoa's prophet herdsman smote with blame
The traffickers in men, and put 10 shame
All earth and Heaven before
The sacerdotal. robbers of the poor!
Gods awful scripture from the lips again
Smiles like live lightning the hands profane,
Lifted to bless the slave-whip and the chain.
Once more the Hebrew tongue,
Barbed with Gods truth, is a bow new strung.
Take up the mantle which His prophets wore,
Speak as He prompts thee show the Christ once more
Bound, scourged and cruc6ed in His b!aIneless poor
And shake above our land
The unquenched bolts that blazed in Hosea's handf
Not vainly shalt thou utter, and here,
The warning burdens of the Orient seer,
And smite with truth guilty nations ear.

Than Seckingen's mailed Hutton's sword

TUESDAY IN CONGRESS.

The House resolved itself into Committee of
the Whole upon the state of the Union, and
Mr.. Sandidge, Of Louisiana, delivered an ultra
ProSlavery speech, even going to the Bible to
defend his favorite institution. Mr.. Walbridge,
of Michigan, commented for an hour upon the
conduct of the Kansas Committee to which
was referred the Presidents Kansas message.
Other gentlemen followed, among them Mr..
Davis, of Maryland, who made a brilliant
speech against Lecompton.
The Senate, after the usual business of the
morning hour, went into Executive session.

ers. 1858.
In several respects this is remarkable book.
The author in his preface says: Fancy has
not penned line, nor has imagination sup.
piled link, but it is an unexsggerated tran
script OF stern experience" The struggle men
toned in the title is one for principle, and, in
no small degree, the evident object of the actors
in the assault on the pastor is to drive him from
his post because he is opposed to Slavery. He
manfully stands on his rights, and prayerfully
casts himself on the strength of an Almighty
arm, and goes forward till he has gained the
victory. The arms employed against him are,
falsehood, chicanery, and almost open violence.
The record is deeply interesting one, and it
furnishes matter for solemn reflection. The
question arises, as we read it, can such things
be in the midst of New England?" 1t is
good thing to have the facts stated. No place
Is named, and yet any one familiar with some
of the incidents alluded to, we are confident,
could without difficulty fix upon the precise
scene of the conflict, as well as tell who were
persons engaged, here described. The author
has given spirit stirring narrative, and in the
minute details, relating the shifts and turns, the
meanness and subterfuges, resorted to by his
adversaries, he has furnished a picture of op-
preston and wrong that can but excite indig.
nation at the thought even of such an attempt
to bear down right. BE may be relied on for
any future struggle; and any church may be
proud of him. :,

WASHINGTON, ID. c..
THURSDAY, APRIL l, 1853.

E9- MARsHALLrSG FOR BArTLE.-The main
reliance of the Lecomptonite Party for success
in the House has been on the supposed impos-
ability of any ground for the cordial co-opera-
ton of the Opposition; but, as the hour ap-
proaehes for q final struggle, observing clear
indications that such ground has at last been
agreed upon, and that all the elements OF Up
position will probably be rallied to defeat them'
they are beginning to be alarmed, and are
meditating some scheme for winning back the
disaffected Democrats whom they have hitherto
prescribed. At q caucus few days since, a
committee, consisting of ten Lecompton and
ten Anti Lecompton Democrats was appoint
ed. 10 devise some plan of reconciliation. Ii
was soon ascertsined, however, that the Lee
comptonites were not authorized to propose
any COMPROMISE whatever; their mission, 1t
would seem, was simply to accept the submits
sion of their offending brethren, who would re-
ceive pardon, and be restored to confidence, on
condition of surrendering at discretion, and
voting for the bill Just as it came from the Sen
ate. The conference broke up, the ten Anti
Lecomptonites reported to their friends, and
we suppose they are now convinced that they
must stand by their principles, and light Tor
them to the last, or submit TO degradation.
kar The MINNESOTA BILL is laboring IN
the Senate. Minnesota is entitled to one Rep
resentatve, but has elected three, who are I'M
derstood to be for the Lscompton bill. The
Republicans propose that she be admitted with
the one Representative to which she is already
entitled, and that census be taken immediate
ly, and so soon as the population shall have
been ascertained, then that she elect the sddi-
tional Representative or Representatives, to
which the ratio of representation may entitie
her. 1t is very edifying to see the slavehold-
ing members vigorously supporting the admis'
sion into the Union of this Free State, with
three Representatives, instead of one, just be-
cause they happen to be for Lecompton.
nY- Mr.. BLAIR, of Missouri, made a bold
and very effective speech last week in the
House, on the Slavery Question. We are sorry
we can find no room for it now, but it is
speech that has permanent value, and will be
read with interest at any time. After We have
got through this Kansas discussion, We intend
TO publish either the whole or a large portion
of il.
The position of Mr.. Blair, the only Republi-
can or Free Democrat from slave State in
Congress, requires great courage, independ-
ence, and discretion, and these qualities he
clearly possesses.
