Jonathan and said:

Tcrril, Of the Lafayette Journal, is pretty
good upon a sharp reply and play upon
words. A correspondent wishes to know the
reason Of the hump upon the camcl's back
Tcrril replies:
1--WE will mention for our correspondents
benefit, that the Arabs have two legends in re-
gard to it. One is, that the camel took OfienSr
at not being allowed to lead the procession into
the ark, and got his back up; the Allah, as a
just punishment for his vanity and prcSump-
ton, and as memorable and perpetual warn
ing to others, never permitted him to get it
down. The other is, that he was grazing at a
distance from the ark, when Noah put out his
bills for sailing, and in order to reach the boat
in time. was compelled to hump himself in
most extraordinary manner"

If the laws which prohibit and punish the for
s;gn trade, or permit them to be evaded.
The only remaining expedient for preventing
the drain of slaves to the extreme South is for
,be Gulf States to prohibit the importation of
dawes from the States north of them. But
this remedy has been tried, and found made
ouate. The demand for slaves in the cotton
States has heretofore been stronger than such
,obweb defences. For several years, Georgia,
Alabama, and Mississippi, had such laws; but
tbeg we're evaded, and at length became dead
letters, or were repealed, when the demand for
slave labor was less urgent than 1t is at present
Tader existing circumstances, it is not proba-
be that laws restricting the importation of
slaves from the older States could be passed,
and. if passed, they would be practically disre-
gsried. The interests, not of few individu-
AIS. but of the ruling class, would clash with
such regulations, and they could have no force.
So the greatest enormiy of Slavery, viz;
The slave trade, seems to be the most danger
Gus euemy to its safety and perpetuity.
