the raw head, bloody bones order, Ill reference to certain paragraphs of MT. Stewards late speeches. His remarks touching the natural antagonism of free and slave labor have been regarded as specially alarming. ,,
 The Louisville Journal, published ID Slave State, aud decidedly opposed to MT Stewards political princip pies-takes very different view of his words It does not understand him, (nor does any body else in fact) as proposing to carry freedom into the Southern States by force. He believes that at some period, Git may be far distan:) Slavery will be abolished by Constitutional means There is not q wore implying that he wishes or expects any othe, mode of abolition. .<E
 The Journal says ::
 "Tlie proposition is perfectly innocent. It is, ill fact, but the reproduction in somewhat sharper form, of pet opinion ot Mr. CIay'S. Nothing could be further from the narrowing import with which distelnpred or designing faneies have invested it. The notion belongs wholly to the realm of ideas. It does not contemplate a plan of action. but merely scheme of natural developenent. It is Il spc sculati on, not project-the outline of a coli yictiop, not of campaign 1t is d mere fore cast of events. It is Mr. Stewards theory for 7 our national progression. It is lis judgment as to what will tappcn ill the ordinary course of things It is simply harmless bit of Re publican philosophy. Noedoubt it is very chi mericai, and no doubt it is cherished religiousy by ali good Republicans but chimeras arc not crimnaf, they are not even dangerous, and, whether they are or not, all good Southern Democrats are clock full of tlem. Mir. Ham, mond in the course of his notable speech at sBaruwell puts forth, indeed, almost the exact counterpart of this particular one. He says
 You must not suppose for moment that I am opposed to the extension of the area oi African slavery On the contrary, I believe that God created negroes for no other purpose th;ai to be the hewers of wood and the drawers of watcr-that is, to be the slaves of the white race and 1 wish to see them in that capacity on every spot on the surface of the globe where their labor is necessary or benef- cial. Nor do 1 doubt that such will be the Gnal result"
 Mir. Hammond does not expressly declare that slavery is destined to expel free labor from any portion & this country, but, unless he believes that slavery is neither " necessa- ry" nor beIleGciaP' anywhere in the Union, save exactly where it exists, he nle st certainly declares it virtually. And it is quite as cer- tain that majority of Southern Democrats heartily agree with him. Yet who would be either so stupid or so insincere as to charge Mir. Hammond with announcing, on behalf of his political friends, determination to Carry slavery into the Free States by force of arms
 From the Boston Daily Advertiser
 The speech deserves consideration, not only for the fralkness and terseness of its expres- sion, which reflect high credit upon Mir Sew md tnp f,pf fha utu ness and skill which it exhibits in unfolding the true character of the contest which. divides the nation-the true character of the contt nd- ing parties their spirit, policy, aims and ob- jects. With masterly power, .Mr. Seward paints the Democratic party in its true col ors-a sectional organization, possessing no policy, State or federal, for finance, trade, ma nufactures, commerce, education, internal i'm provements, the protection or security of civil or religious liberty--except what is demanded to secure the perpe:uaton and extension of slavery. Even Oh this subject the party has no fixed policy. It adopts at each crisis in tue history of the country the measure best adapted to secure present success, aud avows the principles necessary to support that mt as- ure, eny to repudIate and contrad ct the whole argument by contrary practice when needed to secure the great aim and purpose of the all lance between the shareholders of the South aud the democratic leaders of the North. In this way the plan of 8 territorial line Of com promise was once adopted and once repealed noI,-interventon, established and abandoned squatter sovereignty proGered and denied aud now the Southern journals preach the duty # Congress to make national laws to pro- tect Slave property ln the territories.
 We are not sorry that Mr. Seward has sue ceecd in arrestlng the atteation of the whole. country to this plain statement of the case We do not share the appreheasions of those who fear that he has endangered the standing of the republican party by this open avowal oi his sentiments first, because irankness is manly quality that always commands respect i; second, because we believe the substant al truth and soundness of the speech will be ad- mitted upon reflection, by candid men gene rally, who are willing to interpret it in the light of its true meaning, and net as 1t may be distorted and perverted by interruptions ol- ponents.
 A LESSON FOR SUICIDAL LovERs.-Rich- ard Gould, a jGurneyman harness maker of Cincinnati, has himself been harnessed by Gu pd and driven to the very gates of despera- ton. His ensaver is young lady named Charlotte Matthews, whose mother keeps a boardiug-house on Eln-street, and who ap- pears to have made up her mind to some more brilliant alliance than that oiftred by Mir. Gould. But as Richard has very good opin- ion of his own merits and qualifications, he judged that Charlotte's coolness was mere CO uuetry, believing that when it came to the scratch, she would cave iu at a moments War ming.
