g The Mormon Legislature met, as was men
toned at Salt Lake city, on December l4th. The
Council organized by the choice Of Heber G. Kim
ball as President, and the House of Representa-
tives elected John Taylor, Speaker. On the 18th
Brigham Young sertin a message. After abiding
to the condition of the Territory as regards agri-
culture, the mechanic arts, mining, education, the
policy pursued towards the Indians, and the mail
contract, he discusses the difficulties of the Saints
with the Gentiles. Having received no official
notification Of the intention Of the Government to
supercede him in the Gubernatorial Office, nor of
the despatch of troops to Utah, Young affects to
regard the army at Fort Bridger and the civil au-
thorities there as an organized mob, against which
he has already Illuminated a proclamation to dis
perse. This proclamation the army for 'mob" as
he calls it) refused to obey. He then adds:
Under these circumstances, respectfully sug-
gest that you take such measures as your enlight-
ened judgment may dictate, to ensure public tran
guilty. and protect, preserve, and perpetuate in
violate those inalienable constitutional rights which
have descended to us q rich legacy from our fore
fathers"
The Legislature thereupon passed resolutions
expressing their entire confidence in Brigham
Young, and their determination to sustain him in
the rebellion. Italso passed a law attaching Green
county to Salt Lake county, with the view, proba-
bly,, of multiplying some of the proceedings of the
United States Court which had been opened there
by Judge Eckles.
1t is supposed Judge Eckles' Court will indict
every member of the Mormon Legislature who vo-
ted to sustain Young. They had been re-convened
specially for the purpose on January 4th.

free States. At first the action of the Federal
Government was generally i'll favor Of free labor
and free States; How it is generally In fnvor OF
slave labor and slave States. Among the more
prominent acts in favor of freedom was the prohl-
bition Of the African slave trade; while, on the
other hand, the repeal of the Missouri COmpro-
mise was q direct intervention in favor OF slavery.
The Senator then proceeded to give n concise
account of Congressional Intervention since lo2O.
Eighteen States have beee added to the original
thirteen, without any serious c0mmotlon occur
ring. Now, Minnesota AMI Or gnn were under
going the process, which goes on 50 quietly that
irw sec that we are consolidating an empire on the
shores Of Lake Superior, and even ut the very
gates Of the Arctic region. OF the eighteen
States, nine tolerated and nine rejected slavery {:
still there was no extraordinary excitement, but
HOW, the struggle for the balance OF power makes
things different. Free labor and slave labor met
face to face in the desert, and the struggle was
going on for mastery between them.
He argued that free labor would spreadand over
rHie all else. Free labor rules in California. II
inra1es you in Delawarc, .Ndryldnd, Virginia and
Missouri. II riU meet you in iri-onn, IN Ner'c0,
in Central america; az! ii wH meet you IN Cu6a.
If even Senator Seward believed in the extension
of slavery. he would not press it any further in
Kansas. The attempt, he sa!l, has been frustrat-
cd at every point. He believed in the isothermal
line to some extent, but he could not readily find
one out. Clearly, thirty. six degrees thirty
minutes was too far North.
The bold prediction of the words italicised
should be noted by our readers. 1t is the trium.
plant shout over the crest. fallen South. Though
no prophet the South by ~inaction may make his
diyination true.

is a Magazine which a man may read, not an en-
bellished inanity, like GEAuAM's, HARpER's or

number, whether correct or not In its conclusions,
is a forcible and vigorous critique of PARToS's

FEMALE SUFFRAGE. The Massachusetts Legis-
lature has appointed a hearing to some female
petitions for "Woman's Rights" The rights
claimed are, that women should be allowed, lst,
to choose their own avocation; Cd, not to be taxed
without representation; Sd, to sit on %juries, and
4th, to hold Office. There con be no good political
reason why women should not have these rights.
The only obstacle to their enjoyment the domes-
tic Inconvenience which might arise from the pos
session of them. 1t might bother a doating hus-
band to nurse q sucking baby while its public
spirited mother was out with a stubborn jury, and
his patience might be tried to find that his dinner
had been neglected while his wife was discussing
politics and distributing tickets at the election
polls. But these ore trihes that he would soon get
used to, and are no good reason why q woman who
desires it should not have equal privileges, political
and social, with man. But then she should claim
no privilege on account of her sex which the gal
lantry of man usually accords to her. Ifthere is
to be equality, it must be perfect in respect to
both. Instead of being an idol to be worshipped,
she must come Town to mans level and share in
all his everyday drudgery. The legislature Of
Massacb usetts should grant the privileges asked
for; it might save the State the necessity of en-
larging its lunatic asylums. When common sense
fails to make any impression, q little experience
sometimes cures the crookedest crochets of the
brain, and dispels a great deal of nonsense.

Columbia Market.
MARCH s, 8

C0uon.-Our previous weekly report Of the cot
ton market closed on o steady and good demand
for the article, at prices varying from 10 to II
cents. During the week just brought to a close,
there has been considerable fuctuationin the mar
ket. In the early part of the week the demand
was active, and the market somewhat excited, at
on advance of b@4c. on last weeks quotations.
On Wednesday, however, there was evident symp-
toms of o declining tendency and at the close Of
business, on that evening, prices had given way
full one-eighth cent; and in this position the mark
ct continued up to the close of the week, on Sat-
urday evening. The sales of the week comprises
1,Ol0 bales, and we now quote: inferior lO@lO3;
ordinary 1Os @lOa middling 10b@ll, good mid
ding llb@ll4, and strictly choice q shade higher.
Countrv Bacon.--We have no material change
to notice in the bacon market, and therefore we
quote 1l1@12 for hog round. Lard 1l3@12.
Corn.--The demand for corn is rather fat, and
prices are q shade lower. We now quote 70@75c.
Oats.-There is almost no demand for oats, and
tn erefore prices are nominal, at 5000 cents y
bushel.
Cow Peas.-This article is very scarce, and as
there is always a good demand for them, prices
are very high. We quote 95@Sl p bushel.
Fow.--There is o full stock of -four on the
market, and as the demand is moderate, prices
are rather lower. We now quote $5@$6.5O for
good to s~uperfne brands extra family -four 1916

RE-OPENING OF THE SLAVE TRADE.

We see it stated on the authority of the New
Orleans Delta, that the African Apprentice System
has been practically inaugurated in Louisiana
State for the encouragement of this policy. 1t was
first ~agitated, as our readers are aware, by infu-
entail French and English Journals, for the pur-
pose of supplying the colonies Of these two na-
tions with labor. 1t is but turning their own tac-
tics upon them to "whip the devil round the
stump" in this way. We doubt much the prac-
ticability of the movement, except as q shield
under which to evade the existing laws. And
why should a great nation like the South, be forced
to resort to any subterfuge for the accomplishment
of O well-considered and desirable measure? Why
should she suffer any barrier to be placed to her
power of expanding! The Apprentice System,
if it is what it processes to be, is much inferior in
usefulness and completeness to our slavery system
1t would introduce a free-ncgro caste in our midst
(ebony gentlemen of leisure) which would live, like
Il majority Of our free negroes now live, in unpro-
ductive Incidence. We would be forced finally to
sell them for life, and make them slaves in reality.
We have no doubt but this would be the final
result. And believing this, we would not object
to the system, provided it were the only outlet
left US for expanding our territory, and supplying
the requisite amount of labor.
1t is evident that our system of civilization con-
tains the germ of greatness and expansion. An
ill-aGvised restriction on the slave trade has alone
prevented US from exhibiting to the world a gigan-
tic growth and progress, unequalled in the annals
of history. 1t is never too late to correct an error
in the polity of a nation, so long as the nation
itself remains powerful and vigorous. Were we
completely emasculated, then might we set down
and weep-like the Jews by the waters of the
Euphrates-over the fatal policy which sapped
our vigor and left US o national wreck. But we
are stronger than We ever were-our peculiar in
s~titution is bOttomed on q frmer basis-and the
question is now, whether we shall resort to an
artifce or by a bold, an open and unequirocal po-
sition, make the restoration of our rights and
an equal share of all our territory, the condition
of our longer continuance in the Union Shall

Society and of the town OF Wlnnsboro.
john Stark, Esq, while under military age,
turned out in the militia of this State, o daring
young soldier, who, by exposing himself unneces-
sarily got dangerously wounded. While in the
most dangerous stage of his cure, the tories took
him prisoner, and i~nhumanly dragged him to Cam
den, and ms inhumanly treated him in the Provost;
md before his wound was we'll cured sent him and
five other patriots under a guard Of thirteen men
FOR Charleston. On the way there, he formed a plan
to escnpe-it succeeded, and the six unarmed men
took thirteen we'll armed British regulars, paroled
them as prisoners of war, and then made their
escape and Joined our army. This ought not to
be forgotten. I never knew q Stark that did not
bravely defend the cause of liberty and indepen-
dence.
Colonel Jesse Harris, was an exact parallel to
John Stark, Esq. They were as c~ongepial in their
friendship to each other, as they were in patriot
ism to their country. He turned out in the cause
of liberty, whilst under the military age, and did
the duties of his father and his own, and volun-
teered on every occasion that offered. After the
war he was elected Captain of cavalry, and rose
to the rank of Colonel of cavalry in the militia.
He was elected q Representative in the house Of
assembly in this State. He served as my Deputy
Sheriff, and did the whole of my outdoor bust
ness. He was brave and patriotic, and the true
and sincere friend. To the poor he was liberal,
and to all men was just.
