RENEWAL OF THE SLAVE TRADE.-It is pre-
tended by the administration papers at the North,
that there is no serious purpose at the South to
renew the African slave trade. The fact that the
bill to import free negroes from Africa, after hav-
ng passed the Louisiana house of representatives,
without opposition failed in the Senate by only
two votes, is pretty good evidence of serious in
tentions on the part of the Louisiana planters at
least. 1t is to be taken into account, besides
that the measure was a new one, Unexpectedly
introduced. and that it was opposed, not because
the introduction Of negroes was objected to, but
beca use it was considered an evasion OF federal
law to bring them in as lreemen with the inten-
ton OF reducing them to slavery. Yet upon this
view of the case the bill barely defeated
The Senate committee had reported unanimously
in favor Of the bill, and the senator who moved
its postponemcnt avowed himself in favor Of the
bill, but desired more general discussion of it
by the people and the press, with the conviction
that it would pass without difficulty at the next
session. Yet the postponement of this bill is
used BY the northern quietists as a demonstration
that there is no intention to renew the slave
trade. Taking all the circumstances into &C.
count, we agree with the Springfield Republican,
that it proves just the contrary, and it needs no
spirit Of prophecy TO see that the ultra slavery
party of the South is preparing to go in earnest
Tor this measure. The northern politicians who
can swallow the Lecompton iniquity will not need
to stretch their consciences much to sustain the
repeal q the laws making the slave trade piracy.

GENERAL JACKSON, TOI.
LET.

The genial temper of President Buch-
anan, his easy pleasant manners and racy
conversation, bave always rendered him
a great favorite abroad as well as at home,
and few of our public men have laid up
such stock of amusing and valuable rem.
iniscences. There is one anccdote which
he tells of General Jackson, which is so
characteristic Of the hero that it is worth
preserving.
The President relates that ono day dl,-
ring the administration of Old Hickory,
he went to the White House to ask per-
mission to present to him the celebrated
Miss Betty Baton. Gen. Jackson readily
assented and named the next day for the
interview. AT the appointed hour Mr..
Buchanan repaired with his fair: charge
to the Presidential mansion, and leaving
the lady in one Of the drawing rooms, he
mounted to the private cabinet of the
President. 70 his great surprise and dis
appointment, he found the General buried
in his books and papers, and attired in
plain morning dress, his chin unshaved
and his favoritc pipe in his mouth. The
Senator from Pennsylvania was grieyous-
ly embarrassed. He was apprehensive that
if he announced Miss Cations presence the
gallant veteran would descend all in neg
ligc as he was. Mr.. Buchanan did not
like to expose the renowned belle to such
shock as that, and, on the other hand,
he equally dreaded offering suggestion
on the subject to the fiery old hero.
There was no alternative, however, and
he had to state that Miss Cation was wait
ing the Generals presence in the green
drawing-room. Up jumped Old Hicko-
nv at the first word and laid down his
pipe. There was not q moment to be lost,
so Mr.. Buchanan, in timid and apollo
getic manner, vcntured to observe that
the lady could very well wait till the Pres
ident had shaved himself The General
saw what he was driving at, and shook his
frizzlcd head at him like the name Of an
enraged lion.
Buchanan Numbered out the impetu-
Gus old man, did you ever hear of the
man in Kentucky who got rich by mind
ing his own business"
Without stopping to say whether he
was acquainted with the remarkable indi-
yidual in question, the experienced SEMI
tor fled from the storm and took refuge
with his lovely companion down stairs.
In a few minutes afterwards the hero of
New Orleans entered the room with the
dignity of manner which no man knew
better how to assume; and great was Mi.
Buchanan's relief to find that not only
was his face quite virginia. in its smooth
ness, but that he was got up in his best
black suit, with boots offaultlcss radiance.

Mr.. HALE's SpEECu.-''The main fea-
ture of the week here has been Mr.. Hale's
great speech in the Senate, considered
here the very best of his life. | will not
attempt to give you any synopsis OF his
speech, as you will have it entire. His
peroration, both from the matter and the
way in which it was delivered, was abso-
lutelv terrific. | never saw such an effect
produced upon the Senate. When he
appealed to the people of Kansas to resist
the imposition of the Lecompton Consti-
tuition upon them, even to blood and to
death, and warned the shareholders that if
they persisted in the attempt, it would
light the flames of civil war, and create
another crusade, which would free this
land of despotism, he rose to the highest
pitch of oratory; and many stsong mon
who listened, declared that they had never
had their blood so stirred before.
You can get no adequate idea Of the eff
feet produced, by merely reading the
speech. When he closed there was no
applause, but silence more significant
and impressive than any outward demon
stration that could have been given. You
could have heard a pin drop in the Sen
ate or galleries. 1t was some seconds be-
fore any one stirred, and before even the
Vice President broke the silence by put
ting the question. M
A great many Senators and others
crowded around Mr.. Hale to congratulate
him upon bis speech; among others, Fran
els P. Blair, ST., the old Ajax lebanon OF
Gen. Jackson's administration, and Sena-
tor Benjamin of Louisiana. Mr.. Blair
said, Let me congratulate you. Mr.. Hale.
on the best effort of your life, and one
that have hardly heard excelled in this
Senate Senator Benjamin remarked, i
do not, of course, agree with you in the
sentiments Of your speech, but | could
not help admiring the manner in which
YOU enunciated Them And Mr.. Badger
of South Carolina, formerly in the Senate,
now here on business, said-'Hale is a
glorious fellow, and has only one fault
he does hate slacery little too hard"

a LECTURE
DELIVERED AT RIVER FALLS, FEB. 70, 1905,
By ID. G. w. PRATT H"

Among the great names in the musical
world, that of HANDEL stands pre-eml7
nent. He occupies the same position in
music, that Homer does in poetry. His
Messiah may be appropriately styled tho
ZN;ad of music, and descrvedly stands at
the head of ali musical compositions. :,
When Handel first performed this great
Oratorio, in Westminster Abbey, not less
than one thousand performers assisted
him; and since the dedication of the
Temple in Jerusalem, the world had wit
messed no such display Of the majesty and
grandeur Of the musical art.
Inns g;nr, if you can, the power Of seven
combined with three hundred instruments,
The whole accompanied with an organ OF
more than five thousand pipes. At the
opening of the lIallelujah Chorus, the
entire multitude of listeners arose inyol-
UNFAIRLY to their fect-such was the pow
or of harmony, 50 fifty joined to those
sublime words of inspiration, "Hallelu-
jah. for the Lord God Omnipotent reign
eth
Immediately after the Oratorio was con
Guided, the King, who had favored the
occasion with his presence, approached
the composer and remarked: Well, my
good fellow you have given us fine en-
tertainmcnt, tonight g Indeed replied
Handel, II did not write to entertain the
King, but to make the King better"
Is it not true, at the present day, that
the most of us eau listen to the highest
exhibitions Of art and, like George the
Second, feel that they have only been
amused, or like him who gazcd at Vests
great painting, and saw nothing to adj
mire but the garments. II, in the per-
Torrance of music, we aim at nothing
higher than merely to anuse, We fall far
below It's true character. IT is, indeed, the
nature and tendency of all the fine arts to
elevate the soul and improve the heart,
and the words of the great composer con
yey the true idea of the design Of music,
which is, not to entertain the world, but
to make The world better.
There is within man natural desire
for the utterance Of praise. To pure
intelligence just awakened from nothing to
the bliss of conscious existence, the very
first question that can arise is, who Is
my Maker that may praise him." The
earliest blossoming Of a sinless soul must
ever be in praise and alteration to the au-
thor &c its being, and all the minstrelsy
of nature seems sent but to lift its thoughts
to its God. In that immortal poem: the
Paradise Lost, Milton represents the sire
of our race as asking the first objects he
saw for that glorious Being whom he
could not but wish to praise while yet he
knew him not. The cords of his being
are so redundant with the music of praise
that they instinctively trenible into utter
anec before the voice of truth has come
to awaken them into vibration. His souls

Come, while the blossoms of thy years are
brightest.
Thou youthful wanderer in a f1owery maze.
Come. while thy restless heart Is bounding
lightest,
And joys pure sunbeams tremble in thy
WAYS;
Come, while sweet thoughts like summer buds

Waken rich feelings in the careless breast,
While vet thy hand the ephemeral wreath is

Comc-and secure interminable rest
Soon will the freshness of thy days be over.
And thy free buoyancy of soul be flown
Pleasure will fold her wing, and friend and

Those who now love thee will have pass d

Their looks of kindness will be lost to thee
Thou wilt need balm to heal thy spirits fe-

Come. while the morning of thy life is glowing,
Ere the dim phantoms thou art chasing die
Ere the gay spell which earth Is round thee

Which lights the future with fadeless ray

THE BROTHERS.

We are but two-the others sleep
Through deaths untroubled night;
We arc but TWO, let us keep
The link that binds us bright.
Heart leaps to heart, the sacred flood,
That warns us is the same;
That good old man, his honest blood
Alike we fondly claim.
We in one mothers arms were lock'd,
Long be her love repaid;
In the same cradle we were rock'd,
Round the same hearth we play'd,
Our boyish sports were all the same,
Each little JOY and wo y
Let manhood keep alive the fame,
Lit up so long ago.
We are but two-be that the band
To hold us till we die,
Shoulder to shoulder let us stand,
Til side by side we lie.

SUccEss.-Every man must patiently
bide his time. He must wait. Not in
listless idleness, not in useless pastlmc,
not in querulous detection; but in constant,
steady. chee rful endeavor; always viii
ling, fulfilling and accomplishing his task,
that uhen the occasion comes, he may be
eo,.al to the occasion. The talent Of sue
cess is nothing more than doing what you
can do well, without thought of fame.
If it come at all, it will come because it
is deserved, not because it is sought after.
It is very indiscreet and troublesome
ambition which cares SO much about
fame: about what the world says of us;
TO be always looking the faces of others
for approyal;to be always anxious about
the effect Of what we do or say; to be al
ways shouting to hear the echoes Of our
own yoices.-Loageltosc.
