many of the Spanish dependencies or in mider words. to suit the "ears polite'' of the mock sympathizers of the parlors of London or Paris, or the more fastidions taste of the Duchess of Sutherland, the African conquerors sell them to the masters of English and French vessels, for the apprenticeship system, in their respective colonies
 ln either case 1t must be conceded, that it is lmanty to give them employment, to clothe them, to feed and christanise them, and care tor their welfare. This much I have said which Is Aggression from the main question at issue; and l would here disclaim at this time, any argument for the re-opening the African slave trade. But, should such question pre- sent Itself for our consideration, l hope to be prepared to urge some arguments in support of a measure that must result advantageously to all the parties concerned.
 am at a loss to see what motive could induce gentlemen to view this subject in any other light, than the promuigation to the world, of our assertion of right; and upon that ground, I put ths question solely We are not free if we nave no Tights to enjoy; to act one day or the other, as It may seem to us the most wise for the goo4 and happiness of our race Yet, gen. tlemen are not disposed to vote for reconsider atlon of the vote to postpone the whole subject lndIhntely. All ask of them is, to meet the question broadly on its merits, so that vote may be taken directly on the adoption of the preamble and resolutions 1 have, on several occasions asked this, and do now in most re- spectiul manner, demand of those in the oppo- sitlon to point their finger to any proposition in the preamble, that they are opposed to, and glve Us reason why they are opposed to it. But they have wholly failed to do so, and we will always find them dodging the question on some outside issue not at all pertinent to the question under consideration.
 Sir, again make another call for an argument rom any Senator on this floor, to give to the Senate, < reason for the faith that is in him." on this measure. fear that they will be un- able to respond in a suitable and convincing ar Sument.

RUTH.

Where, in the whole range of English poetry. can be found better description of an infant than the following lines afford--and this is by an Amercan
 RUTH, kneeling and rocking the cradle What IS the little one thinking about! Vory wonderful things, no doubt,
 Uuwrltten history,
 Unfathomable mystery! Yet he laughs and cries, and eats and drinks, And chnckes and crows, and mods and wnks, As Ii his head were as full of kinks, And curious riddles as any sphinx! Warped by cholic and wet by tears, Punctured by pins, and tortured by fears, Our little nephew will loose two years;
 And he'll never know
 here the summers go-
 lie need not laugh, for he'll find it so! Who can tell what baby thinks? no can follow the gossamer links
 by winch the mannikin feels his way Out rom the shore Of the great unknown, Blind, and wailng and alone,
 Into the light of day?-- Out from the shore of the unknown sea, Tossing in pitiful agony Oi the unknown sea that reels and rolls opecKed with the barks of little souls barks that were launched on the other side And slipped from Heaven on an ebbing tide! w hat does he think of his mothers eyes? W hat does he think of his mothers hair? What of the cradle roof that flies Forward and backward through the air?
 What does he think of his mothers breast bare and beautiful, smooth and white, Seeking It ever with fresh delight Cup of his life and couch of his rest? What does he think when her quick embrace Presses his hand and buries his face Deep where the heart throbs sink and swell "lth tenderness she can never tell Though she murmurs the words, Of all the birds Words she has learned to murnur we'll?
 Now he thinks he'll go to sleep!
 can see the shadows creep
 Over hls eyes, ill soft eclipse,
 Over his brow, and over his lips,
 Out to his little finger tips!
 Softly sinking, down he goes
 Down he goes! Down he goes, R,s'ng am carefu'1y retiring to her seat1
 See! He Is hushed in sweet repose

 Died-In Pope county, Arkansas, Nov. the 22d, of paralysis, THOMAS P. WALKER, in the hfty-sixth year of his age. He emigrated to Arkansas in 1883, and has lived in Pope county for the last 23 years, in which time, from the suavty and blandness of his manners. he had gained many and valued friends. Let us here minge with the disconsolate widow and near relations of the deceased, the tears of sorrow shed for the loss of one so highly esteemed and so much beloved; but let us not mourn as those who mourn without hope. for he lived the life ot an honest man. and he died the death of a chfSt'an. The spirit of the righteous ascendeth up to heavfn and shall inherit the paradise of God.
