THoUGHTs FROM THE GERMAN.-As we
may notice, even in a calm, by the incli-
nation Of o tree in the forest, from which
side comes the fiercest and most frequent
blasts of the storm, so an attentive obser-
yer OF men may easily distinguih the
heaviest gales ofpassion.
Beneath what load Of worldiness and
worldly cares is the soul Of the Christian
often buried; and how anxiously and per-
sevcringly he struggles to penetrate the
mist, to return again into the bright, clear
light Of heavenl Yet, at other times,
how easily, and by what triaing matters,
we suffer ourselves to be led away from
Godl
A noble person needs but plain gar
ment TO set it of; beautiful picture but
n simple frame; great thought is best
dressed in the simplest language. But all
these need spirit of understanding to be
appreciated. = 't

According TO Mr. Everett, in his recent
Grafton, MIR. Webster was also a believer
IN the irrepressible conflict between Free
dom and Slavery. the first annunciation
OF which has been attributed to Mr.. Sew
ard. Wequote the following:
che Mr.. Webster not only confidently
anticipated what the lapse of seven years
since his dccease has witnessed and is wit
Messing, that the newly-acquired and new
ly y-organlzed Territories of the Union
would grow mp into Free States; but in
common with all or nearly all the states
men of the last generation. he believed
that Free Labor would ultimately prevail
throughout the country. He thought he
saw that in the operation of the same eau
ses which have produced this result in the
Middle and Eastern States, it was visiblv
taking place in the States north of the cot
ton growing region; and he inclined to the
opinion that there, also, under the influence
oil physical aud economical causes, Free
Labor would eventually be found more
productive, and would therefore be ultim-
ately established"

Duplicity of the Admin .trat,or.

Our readers will remember that the
Postmaster General, directed The Postmas-
ter at Washingtoncity, not to send Repub-
lican documents franked by Hon. John

The Washington correspondent of Col.
Forney's paper, TINS exposes the duplicity
of the Cabinet on the subject:
At the very moment when the Postinas-
ter General wsls making a point against
the abuseef the frankingi privilege, in re-
ference to members of Congress--which
members of Congress have the right to
frank their own speeches and all their pub
lie documents--the Attorney General of
the Unitcd States appears before the pub,
lac an the attitude Of .. semi official COM
batant, against a Senator, in a partisan
paper, and, not content with this Specimen
Of bad taste. sits him down and proceeds
to sonal this political partisan production
all over the Union under his frank!. f,Ysr
Now, 1t is to be presumed that p Postmas-
ter General Holt did not move against Mr..
Congressman Covode-interdicting the
circulation of Republican documents, I'M
loss they were frankeeiby Mr.. Covode him
self andshot by his agent )--.-wisirout con-
sulung the Cabinet. including the Presi-
dent, and without taking. the opinion of the !
Attorney General. This reform was trum-
pctcd far and wide as a great Administra-
tioH measure, and as one which entitled the
Administration to the commendation of
all good men--and, to, do justice to the
truth, it has been generally applauded.

The Louisville Courier. a live Dem ocrst-
lc paper, thus speaks of Judge Douglass 8
Harper bid for the Presidency:
The letter of Judge Douglas has taken
aback his apologists in the South. 1t has
fallen upon them like clap of thunder ON
cloudless day. They had almost succeed
ed. as they thought, in convincing the pco-
pie OF the South that Douglas was the on
ly man who could be elected, and. by
shrcwdness and sophistry. had explained
away some of the many objections to his
freeport speech. .lr
But all their work has been in vain
Judge Douglas hss forever spoiled all their
calculations, sophiStries and arguments.-
He" further of noe from the true Demoe-
racy than he has ecer get been. His anti
Locomptonism was bad his Freeport
speech vas worse. but his copyrighted"
squatter sovereignty essay in Harper's is
worst OF all. In his energies to conciliate
Northern Abolitionists, Judge Douglas
has cut himself completely loose from the
Democracy of the South. We hope never
again to hear his name mentioned in con-
nection with the Charleston, nominate
1t is madness aud folly to think of his get
ting nomination for the Presidency from
the Democratic party. He must look
somewhere else. and probably he will.
