FREEDOM AND SLAVERY:

Land for the Iandess vs.. Niggers for the Niggerless
Near the close of the late session
of Congress, somewhat exciting
scene occurred in the Senate which is
thus described by correspondent of
the New York Times
After little brush on points Of or
der. Toombs got the floor. To under
stand the scene that followed, you
must know that Seward and Wilson
sit on the rear row of chairs, and
Toombs, Wade and Benjamin imme-
diately in front of them in the next
row-Wadc having Toombs on his
right and Benjamin on his left-and
all five being in close proximity to
each other. A little further off to
the left of Benjamin sits Fessenden.
Toombs directed his speech entirely
to Seward. Always impassioned and
furious, he was now extraordinarily
vehement in tone, violent in gesticula-
ton, and abusive in language. lie
called Seward demagosue-a small
demagogue--said he despised all
detestcd small dema-
gogues in particular, but more es-
pecially pitied and despised those who
could be driven by small demogogues,
bringing his fist in the vicinity of
Waie's desk as he uttered the last
clause. He accused the Republicans
in body, Of cowardice, personal and

For the St. Charles City Intelligence

MEssRs. EDroRs Il read with inter-
est, in late number of the Intclligen-
Ger, a communication from "a. L. T."
upon woman's influence" and with
most of its sentiments | heartily con-
cur. The call for increased cxertions
on the part Of woman, coactive with
her brothers, for the suppression of
vice, the elevation of the moral stand
ard, and the establishing an equilibri-
um in the social organization, shall
meet with a ready echo from my
heart, and perhaps my pen.
Woman but too often appears lamcn-
tably ignorant Of the responsibilities
of her trust, and proves recreant to
the better principles of her nature.
Too often does she PROSTATE her intel
lectual energies and poison the morals
of her heart by striving for preemi-
nent brilliancy in fashions train,
eking out mere butterfly existence,
ambitious only Of praise for external
accomplishments, which the world,
(the gentlemen portion, has been too
ready to bestow, in a manner unwise-
ly calculated to excite vanity, rather
than awaken zeal for the promotion of
temperance and truth. Any effort,
therefore, which is calculated to exalt
her character and establish her in her
true position cannot be untimely.
But as to the means necessary to
effect SO desirable an object, perhaps
a difference of opinion may arise be-
tween "a. l.. t." and myself If she
favors public association, or secret
organization, for carrying out her
plans, l must beg to say that there
are many objections to such course
which in my mind are insuperable. l
am inclined to believe that popular
organization in whose meetings ladies
are permitted to indulge in scandal
and idle conversation, would tend to
defeat the very object for which we
should aim, viz all influence which
shall give commanding reformatory
and happy impulse to the social inter-
course Of both sexes and all classes.
1t would afford me pleasure to give
my views more fully upon subject
Of 80 much interest to females as
class, but the intention Of these lines
is merely to keep the topic alive, and
| will close by hoping to hear again
from "a. L. r' and others upon this
subject

prevailed as touching the cause of cd

dates for the pedagogical profession
the right way. And the whole coun.
try seems to be alive, more or less, to
the interests of education.
Our PoPrLArIoy, as perhaps limited
in one of my former communications
presents a somewhat molly aspect
Old Kentucky has the credit, | be.
licvc, of furnishing the major part of
the first settlers of the county. Ohio,
Virginia and Indiana have borne some
share in rcplenishing it. But the
strong bias to the usages, dialect, and
idioms of a halfbarbarous or slave
holding community is quite strongly to
be seen. This fact, too, of slavery
origin with most of the inhabitants,
accounts for that want of public en-
terprise, progress and refinement, that
is so apparent in all the communities.
But, as in respect to most general
rules, there are some exceptions. We
have a few New York "sharpers."
Some, too, from Kentucky, have at
tanned to opulence. Here, we have
in the midst of us some specimens of
the so-much-talked-of anal lgamotion, in
the persons of the descendants of a
Vice President of the United States,
who married woman of mixed blood,
African and Anglo-Saxon. Although
we have Abolitionists, in numbers
"few and far between" and some Ne
grocs, this is the only instance of
amalgamaticn; it is of Kentucky ex-
traction, and politically, Of the pure
Democratic school, which so much ab-

Hopes are waking, morn is breaking,

Earth Is blooming, earth is blooming,
MantlinS forest, field and brake:
Birds are singing, woodlands ringing,
Nature S sweetest anthems wake
Who shall say this world is lonely,
Brooking sorrow to recall,
When her sunbeams, streaming glory,
Swcetly, brightly smile on all!
Spring is coming Spring is coming!
with her vcrdant sunlight bowers,
Gently breathing fond1y wreathing,
Iwining every vale with flowers.
Bright her morning rays adjoining,
Piercing crystal drops Of dew,
Earth refreshing, hearts caressing,
All beneath the heavens blue.
See the myriad plants upraising
From the mountain. from the dell.
Mingling tones devoutly praising-
Father, thou doeth all things well
Spring is coming! Spring is coming
With her noontide's blushing sky;
Moonbeams nightly streaming brightly
From their chequered homes on high.

As obeyed our Saviour's will
Thy breath a mandate, cease commotion
Raging pillows, " be thou still!

Such joys to man you freely give;

To all that die, to all that live!

Bearing all silently sorrow for years
Hopefully striving to conquer my fears
Say, did my patience, my tenderness, truth,
Merit not more than the blight of my youths
Give me once more my wild energy back,
Give me the hopes that illumned life's track;
Give me the faith that wasted on YOU
Give me the love that squandered thereto
You cannot too lightly you cast them aside,
And for you and all others these feelings have died
Yet, though the hopes that cherished dead,
Though the light from my spirit forever hath fed,
