years imprisonment. for having had a volume of
'Uncle Tones Cabin in his possession. The
sentence was pronounced by the Dorchester
County Court last spring. Exchange.
We Americans prate a good deal about Freedom
and equality, and berate other nations for their
intolerance and despotism but it would te diff
cult to find in the annals of Austria. Turkey,
Russia, or Naples, q case of more unmitigated
tyranny than the above. What enormity Of King
Bomba, or of the perjured Ferdinand of Austria,
against the rising spirit of Freedom, could not be
justified by the above example?
1t is a disgrace to the civilization and intelli'
ce.ated for ten years. for the offence Of selling a
book which its bitterest enemies cannot charge

SLAVERY TO BE PERMANENT.

permitted to take his human chattels into the Ter.

as slaves, although no law, human or divine, rec.
ognises the existence Of slavery in the Territories.
In its Issue Of the 10Th Instant the Union has a long
leader under the caption, Are we to have q North
ern AMI Southern Democracy 2"
1t proceeds TO preach anew the gospel Of slavery
as expounded BY its chief priests, Buchanan and
fancy. Ii condemns the Douglas doctrine of "un
friendly legislation against slavery by the Terri
tories, and declares that 'hostile legislation"
would be unconstitutional lie who touches sla'
very, in the opinion of the Presidents mouth piece,
touches the ark of our political covenant, and ought
to be punished with death. 1t says:
Slate Journal
1--WE want to be able to fix upon a principle to
guide us in oil future elections. We want to be
able to say autboritatively. by the direct decision of
the federal courts, that the question Of slavery in
the Territories has been finally determined. Ii
the opposition desire to take issue with us upon
the question of the operthrop of the Supreme Court,
we are ready to accept it, and appeal to the coun
try. We want no more s~kulking and po,sifogging
in cur own party. Like Paul, we require our
that they may DO found faithful hereaf
ter. They have been too much occupied in trim
ming their sails to catch the popular breeze, and
have too little regarded the dictates ofnational pat
riotism and sound national principles. We want
n bold, compact, universal democracy. We stand
by the decision of the Supreme Court, and we pro-
uounce the curse Of heresy upon every man who
invests his interests in the cause Of northern or
southern opposition to that decision. We have
had enough of time serving, of yielding to traitors
because they can vote-of selling principles as
opiates to stop the clamor of one set of demagugues
that another may be elevated to power and posi-
ton. The best recipe to reduce and degrade q par
ty is to grant indulences to trimmers, and to au-
thorize heretics to minister at the affairs of the
faithful. The unity of a political organization is
as necessary as the unity Of the States. Nor is /:
possible to maintain the latter without the former.
Nobody but insane men believes that Government
can be safely carried on by the free States alone.
1t is a Government of the United States, not of the
Northern States and as the latter have sought to
exercise absolute control over the Territories, and
thus enter a wedge into the Union with which to
sever it, we i~nterpose the constitutional principles
of the bred Scott decision as the only means of
averting the calamity. If there is a Democrat in
the Republic who would trust the Abolitionists to
administer the affairs of this Government, if there
is a Democrat who does not believe that his party
is the only great conservator of the Union, we trust
he will loose no time in manifesting his apostacy
and placing himself somewhere in the Opposition
ranks"

THE FATAL ASSUMPTION.

Just so long as we will talk of Slavery as an
"institution"--a domestic institution"-jus so
long as we will think, treat of, or talk about it as
anything less than q crime and an outlaw. just so
long we will stultify and nullily all our efforts for
its overthrow and defeat. Herein is the secret Of
our past failure! We talk OF Slavery as though
1t had rights, and as though our only objection to
it was that it exercised its rights" improperly
sometimes, and in unpleasant directions !! We
allow ourselves to assent to the monstrous and
devilish assumption that slavery in it's proper
place is not so bad after all-and even if it is ever
so bad, it has rights, is State institution. But
Sla avery is a villainy, a crime, an outlaw, and has
no more rights and is nolmore of an Constitution"
than Murder, Rape, or Robbery! Talk about
the institution" of Murder. would you? the
rights of the Burglar ? the CONSTITUTIONS PRO;

come out of this audacious nonsense 2 Is it not
time that we stop lying to ourselves the great lie
that our Constitution protects Liberty and Slavery
alike-that justice and injustice are alike recog.

STEAMER DENMARK,

STEAMER DENMARK.
MISSISSIPPI RIVER, Oct. 6, 1858.
DEAR MARIUs: We have just passed that re.
markable place, "Nauvoo," and l thought perhaps
a briet description of it might be interesting to
some of your readers. Here fourished those de-
luded and infatuated people, the Latter Day
Saints" under that remarkable self,styled popbet,
j. Smith. Here they had taken their stand, deter
mined to live and die, true to their faith and pro-
pbet, whose remarkable career, and violent death,
have created no small interest in the circles of civ.
ilized society.
Whatever may be said Of the morals and relis.
ion of this individual, one thing is certain, that he
was possessed of superior natural abilities, and
fine taste.
The site he had chosen for their city, cannot be
exce'led, and scarcely equaled anywhere on the
Mississippi river. The level table land next the
river, extending back about half a mile, is beauti.
full, and at present about fifteen feet above the riv.
err, and sufficiently high to be free from inunda.
tons. 1t is on this level surface. that the main
part of the town Is built. Back of this beautiful
full foreground, commences a gradual rise of about
one hundred feet, and extending back from the riv,
er about a mile, on the summit of which was built
the great Mormon Temple. 1t is all gone now but
the front wall, which was the end of the building,
and is said to be the best specimen of architecture
in the west, and is truly of magnificent proper.
tionS. The Temple was burned soon after the
Mormons left, or rather were driven away, and
was supposed to have been done by themselves;
the side walls falling in at the time the back end
was afterwards pushed down. The cupola, though
not entirely finished, was of an immense height,
with On arched dome at the top, and furnished
with a winding staircase from bottom to top. The
Temple was two stories high the lower dediea
ted to their worship. and the upper was a large
hall for amusement, with rooms on each side, like
a steamer. The front wall as now seen from the
river, shows three stories, built Of finely wrought
stone. with three large arehed Gothic doors thu
cornice are also of stone, and of heavy Greciar
mould. Though the design was not perfect, being
neither purely Grecian or Gothic, but a combina
ton of the two, which. perhaps, might be calico
American. The doors opened into the vestibult
below.
Down on the table land, near the edge of the
river, stands the foundation Of the enormous "Nau
VOC House." The fret story is built of stone, the
second of brick and Was designed to be the lar
gest and finest in all the west. The country round
for several miles was thickly settled. and was de,
signed to be the residence of the Saints. who should
come up to the temple to worship. There is a rich
fertile country back Of the town. The houses are

A DRIED SCOTT CASE IN MASSACHU
SETTS-IWO SERVANTS HELD
IN BONDAGE CLAIMING
LIBERTY.

A case involving some nice points, rendered
famous in the bred Scott case. had been pending
in Lowell. Mass, for several days, but has been
kept SO still that no daily paper has got hold Of
it. The case. as stated with apparent truthfulness,
and at their own instance, is briefly this:
jesse Cornwell, a rich planter in Mississippi
had a smart favorite slave named Betsy, who was
employed in the confidential relation of house
keeper, and with whom he oo'habited The re
suit of this Capitalization was a daughter, who il
now "a years old, smart. capable, intelligent ant
good lookiug.-Her name is Caroline. Cornwell
on his dea,h-bed, six years since, requested hi'
friend, DR.. Lewis Reyes, to take charge of his of
fects, including q considerable sum of money
and especially charged him, as soon as he coulC
arrange 80 to do, to take the woman Betsy anG
HE aud her child, Caroline, to a free state anC
there see them comfortably located. For thi,
special service Reyes was directed to take 5000
cash. S4, 900 of which was to be equally divided
between mother and daughter, and $1,000 to b.
retained for his own services.
Instead of performing faithfully this last dyinl
request. it is alleged Reyes, Immediately on thu
death Of Cornwell, took the mother and daughter
and hired them out at 800 a year each for a pc
riod of six years, when be finally brought then
with him north. arriving in Lowell in the latte
part Of May last. They have been here will
Reyes family under strict surveillance, since tina
time.
On Saturday last the mother and daughter ap
peared before Isaac S. Morse, Esq, to whom the.
made a complaint and told their story. Nj
Morse, in their behalf, instituted a suit agains
Keyes for the recovery of the money given b,
Cornwell, and also for their six years labor.
Keyes was arrested by Deputy Sheriff e. L
Shed, and held to bail in the sum of $4,000. II,

THE INDIANA KIDNAPPING CASE,

The Indiana kidnapping case has resulted in the
release of Horace Bell on bail. Doubtless the
Judge was aided to come to this conclusion nv the
spirit and determination manifested bv the teonl,
OF New Albany. But for this, Bells hail wopld
have been made as unreasonable as in tho c,s oos
the kidnapped father and brother he 90 bero;ca,lv
rescued. But we hear Of no movement n. ro,
the part of the authorities of Indiana for the orr...
and punishment of the kidnappers in either coss,
Something of the same spirit so spccessr,lln -
piled to the Kentuckians might DO eopoIIv bsns,
fetal il directed towards Governor Willard and
other authorities. This practice of Kidnapping
should be stopped. Surely it bas'already proceed
ed Tar enough. Last week we referred to the case
OF Calvin Fairbanks. We now learn from the
Louisville journal and the. New Albany papers
what we did not before know. that the Bells faith.
err and son, were also kidnapped. And not for apy
offence alleged to have been committed on Ken,
lucky soil, but for feeding and shelterine fup;,ive.
at their Indiana home. Thus four white men have
been kidnapped and imprisoned from that one 10,

rescue or the prevention of similar outraees excen.

has secured the bailing out Of Horace Bell from
Jail and bis return to Indiana to await n tria! be.
fore a Kentucky Conrt, for his flial piety in releas.
ing his father from the clutches Of kidnappers.
We say four rhite men have been kidnapp.d.-
How many colored men. women and children bavs
been doomed to slavery by the same means and
within the same time we do not know ; doubtless
they are much more numerous. The kidnapping
OF white men is a crime of no deeper die, than tbo
kidnapping of colored men, but when kidnappine
10 tolerated at all, villains will not be scrupulous
about the complexion of their victims. PERHAPS
nothing else than the kidnapping and enslavirg Of
white people will demonstrate these truths TO the
comprehension of the mass of our population, self
ish!y Indifferent as they are to the crime of slave.
ry when perpeirated upon a wronged class. If
this New Albany and other similar cases produce
this result, they will not be altogether lost upon
the community, however wicked they NAV be in
themselves or even oppressive to the individual
victims.
Perhaps they may be the means of arousing the
white mans" party to see that it has something
directly to do with the expressions of the colored
man and lead its members to understand the i'm
portance of vindicating the rights Of man, rather
than devotlng themselves exclusively to the in.
terests of a class. by joining with oppressors.-
This nation has somehow. to learn this plain lesson.
If in no other way it will be by the loss of its own
liberties.
