! FERGUSON AND BURCH.-The following are the
resolutions offered by Senators Ferguson and
Burcb and which were to come up for discussion
on the 18th
| BY Mr.. Ferguson
| Res0lved By the Senate, the Assembly concur
ring, That our Senators in Congress be, and are
| hereby instructed, and our Repre- sentatves re.
quested to oppose the admission of the Territory
/ of Kansas into the Union as a State, under the
/ LecomptOn Constitution, until the same, in its
entirety, shall have been submitted to the people
! of the Territory for their final action.
ResolUed, That His Excelency, the Governor
he requested to transmit copy of these resolu.
tions to each Of our Senators and Representatives
in Congress
Substitute, by Mr. Burch;
Resolved, BY the Senate, the Assembly concur
ring, That the views of President Buchanan, on
the so called Kansas question: as expressed in his
recent message, are in accordance with the Dem
ocratc doctrine Of popular sovereignty.
ReSOLUed, That in the recommendation Of the
/ President, that Kansas be admitted into the Union
under the Lecompton Constitution, we recognize
an earnest and commendable desire on his part to
remove from Congress the further agitation Of
the slavery question and to encourage in our
Senators and Congressman that non interference
with the domestic institutions of the country,
which, by a Federal Constitution, are guaranteed
to the States and people.
Resolved, That the Governor be requested to
send copies of these resolutions to our Senators
and Congressman.
II is seen that the above are in direct conflict.
The question of how new States shall be admit
ted is one in which every member of the Union
has right to a voice more especially is it Of
importance to a party that claim the doctrine of
popular sovereignty as one of its great princ-
pies The Interpretation of that doctrine is what
! occasions the discussion.

Nor needed, though ateyefy step we stumbled
DER the slain,
How long our weeping wives and babes would
look for us in sain;
We saw the end, we knew our doom, We felt
as men whose last
OF mortal days and griefs and joys sweeps
by them to the past;
Earth rocked beneath our feet, her flowers,
her mountains and her skies, 81.
Her summer green and autumn pomp went
mocking from our eyes,
On lifted sword and gun and limb, with dull
and shivering sound,
I heard the whistlihg bullets crash and from
the beeches bound,
Down sank nv brother at my side, sank with
mighty groan
That. smote upon my ear above the battles
drowning moan;
o Heaven, it was sight to freezel most muir
derous and appalling,
TO see ih troops like helpless beasts ones
comrades round him falling,
And through their sunless agonies on God
and Jesus calling;
From gaping breast and shattered brow to see
the hot blood spouting,
And the soul take wing amidst the din, the
carnage, and the shoutiDgl.
And now as still In redder wrath the roaring
tempest fell,
We broke, we flew and left our slain within
that bloody dell
Then rose yell that rocked the hills and as
we forward dashed
Like frighfed deer, through brain andslimb
the smoking hatchef ctashed;
l stumbled in the race and fell; howl, tiger
bound,
And then huge and brawny hand had pin
ned me to the ground!
That fearful, dark hand seized my hair, felt
the cleaning blade
Assail the locks with which my sainted mo-
TIERS hand had played;
My eye grew dark. | have sense, memory
vague and dull,
How that cold. gliItering edge at last cracked
on my naked sknll;
! know no more-if pulseless heart, stilled
breath and darkened eve
Are d, ath, beneath that blade died as much
as man may die; ~
I woke to know that yet ! lived and that the
foe were gone,
And was left with CHASTITY men and bowling
wolves alone
To know that sped by unseen hands before
his deed was done,
A ball across his PROSTATE foe had stretched
the forests son, So
Stretched on my neck the dark, huge breast
where gaped a mighty wound
Whence as the blood came bpbbling through
it baked me to the ground;
1 woke TO lean of better things which God
had keptfor me-
For in the Nef Jerusalem no more shall fight

ANNIE LEE:
OR, THE
HAPPY RESULTS FIR1fs.
NESS
OR, THE


HArPY RESULTS soF.AsafAslEN,sFI FIRMs.
In. the neighborhood of Liverpool
there are many pretty villages, quiet,
unobtrusive places, with charming,
rural aspect. nowhere else in the world
to be seen but in England. In such
charming retreats-the more charming
because they derive some prosperity
from their contiguity to the great sea-
port-there is generally TO be found a
class of persons, who. to limited agri-
cultural pursuits, unite the business of
tradesman. 0fthis class was Mr.. Lee,
worthy, and, to use the familiar
phrase, "well-to-do" man. He had
married late in life, and at somewhat
advanced age had been left a widower
with an only child, daughter, and, ac-
cording to the unanimous testimony Of
the male portion of the community
amongst whom she dwelt, the ''pride Of
the village"
Annie Lee well deserved this title,
for she was not only beautiful in person,
but amiable in disposition, and, for a
young girl in her station of life, exceed
ingly well educated. We will not speci-
fy the particular village, but we will at
tempt TO describe sweet Annie Lee
She belonged to that class of girls who,
in personal appearance. are decidedly
English. OF the middle height of her
sex, she possessed that indescribable
grace which we associate with front
whose modesty. pliancy and moderate
fullness at once impress us with the idea
of woman who has not very long
passed out of the sparkling buoyancy
of sportive girlhood. Annie was twenty,
and her department had acquired that
tInge of seriousness natural to girl
OF: her years when the cultivation of the
mind has not been neglected. Her face
was extremely beautiful in outline, al
though some of the features were not
classically regular. The rich lips when
in repose were rather firmly closed, and
the chin was little too large for those
critics who lock for perfection in every
feature. But the upper portion Of An
nie's face was unexceptionable. Her
straig ght nose, with slightly curved nos
trils, above which beamed the light Of
dark blue unfathomable eyes, and all
crowned by a delicately arched white
forehead, on each side of which reposed
thick bands of dark brown hair, togeth-
er with the blushing bloom of maiden
health on her cheeks, rendered the en-
sena6ls of her loveliness delightfully."- at
tractive. Annie, however, had an in
ward beauty which manifested itself in
her daily life. With the most exquisite
tenderness there was linked a moral
courage sense of duty toherself and
l others rarely to be found in young wo-
men upon whom nature has lavished her
favors, and who are continually exposed
to incense of fattery and admiration.
As mi ght have been expected, Annie
Lee had many lovers, but there was one
in the throng upon whom she had long
ago bestowed her preference, He be-
41oDged to the same village as herself;
and their pecuniary prospects were
about equal, with the difference, that
Frank Harvey was already in posses
sion-ofshis patrimony, bis parents being
both dead. The young man rented on
along lease small well stocked farm,
and had at command several hundred
