THE WEEKLY PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT

ritories There is no intelligent man, North
or South, who believes that slave State
will be made out Of any Of those territories,
or out Of any unorganized territory not EN-.
braced within the limits Of the State OF
Texas. The Democracy have had p'sssss-
ion OF the Government nearly all the time
since 1900, and il their policy leads TO the
extension Of slavery into tree territory, why
Is il that to day all Of the latter are free,
aud that nobody expects to STE slavery a.
tablshed ~ an institution In any Of them !
The story about slavery extension is all bosh
and CANNON, The Government at Wash
ington has no power 10 extend or contract
Il. The whole subject Is left W the people
Of the states and Territories themselves,
and they will do as they please, without car
ing for the sentiment OF outsiders. NH.

Six Swedish Protsstants recently EN-
braccd the faith OF the Church of Rome
and in consequence Of this step, they have
been tried under an old swedish law, con
ycted Of apostatizing from the national
faith and sentenced to Punishment A re-
monstrance against this persecution, signed
by the leading churchmen, the great reli.
gious associations the dissenting clergymen
statesmen and lawyers OF the British metro
polls. has been presented to the Swedish
government, and the Swedish minister has
replied to 1t alphabetically, but urges the
delcacy OF any interference on the part Of
citizens OF one state with the internal con
stltutlon Of another.
He intimates that he himself agrees with
the rcmonstrants, and points TO certain nlti.
mate good effects which their representa-.
tons may have, but he also makes the sur
prislng statement that the act Of persecution
complained Of, is not the work of the Swed.
ish government or court, but Of the Swedish
people. The government, 80 far from insti.
tutlng the suit against the converts, actually
proposed to the Diet change OF the law
proposition which that representative
body rejected The Swedcs, it appears, are
very conservative. They do not wish to en-
courage any religious agitation and disturb
ancc Of their established faith, To declare
religious liberty would be doing violence to
their views of policy, and therefore. to avoid
discussion and commotion, they adhere to
their Liberal law, The London Tunes, com
meptipg on this strange opposition to rel-
gious freedom in Sweden remarks
The Swedish system Of persecution does
not appear to be- tormenting or sanguinary.
but confines itaclf simply to the removal Of
the person Of the convert out OF the confines
of Swedish society, getting him out Of the
wny and having done with him. The old
law has insured tranquility in the religious

bic removal OF the exceptions to IL. agree

A MERCHANT of Cincinnati residing in
the rural suburbs, and having an estate of
about thirty acres, III a high state OF orna-
mental cultivation, lately placed along bis
fences and hedges man traps, spring guns,
bull dogs, and other coDtrivances, to keep
oil poachers. The first victim to the dogs
was his own mercantile partner, who had
his clothes torn to shreds The next result
Of his continuance was that Of gutta
percha trumpet, with a long tube and the
mouth in the house. while the other end was
at the exterior fence. This made such u
hldeous and uncarthy noise as to alarm the
whole neighborkool every time it was blown
by any one. The net result of all these
precautions has been to brighten everybody
away from the premises, and the man has
no friends or visitors to his prison.

A gentleman now 10 Paris, writes ~ fol

lows:
The greatest Of living French sculp,ors,
IequesDe. the pupil and SUCCESSOR Of Pradier,
has asked Morphy 10 sit to him for his bust
in marble. Morphy gave him bis first sit
ting yesterday. The bust will bn exhibited
at the Exposition des Beaux Arts. This is,
! think, the highest honor Morphy has yet
received. But ! can assure you they treat
him here like god. lie dimes with his
Royal Higbness, the Duke Of Brunswick,
on Sunday. The other night, at the Thea.
tire Francois, half the audience stood up and
looked at him, be perfectly unconscious IN.
iii j, was pointed out to him. Everybody
seeks introductions TO him, and the old play
ers Of the time Of lAbourdonnais, treat him
with the greatest reverence.
After finishing his match with Harwitiz,
Mr.. Morphy will proceed directly to Berlin
and Breslan, 10 meet Andersen, LANCE and
MeyOt, who, with Won der IAsa, are at
present the great exp0nents Of German
chess. IL il a matter of much regret both
to Mr.. Morphy aud his admirers, that the
diplomatic duties Of Won der Iasa, (who is
Prussan Minister at Rio Janeiro), preclude
the possibility OF bringing about = meetiag
between these distinguished players. The
last illustrated Nsrs, Of L0udon, gives a
portrait and life Of Mr. Morphy, together
with the eight games played bIindiold by
him at the birmingham meeting.
