q greater fancy for horsefesh than Mr.. W.,

riety. Their resort is Harlem lane. Mr.. j.

CO The following is from the fullre-
port of Mr.. CoRwIS's remarks in the House.
IA to Helper and his book. he asked If
the North had not good cause to make war
upon North Carolina for sending such pes
tiferous man among them. The book had
been given to him three weeks ago, md was
still! in his trunk: he was told it cons i.tel
of statistics, and as he confined his re-
searches emily to polite literature, ,he had nos
read it. As he had proposed his colleague
(Mr. Sherman) as can !ida.e for Speaker,
when this charge Of endorsing the book
was made, he went and looked into Chitty
on bills TO see how far he was liable for en-
dorsng ;.e ci.lorser. ELaughtcr.l He
supposed that all these endorsers, being
hKe himself. ouly given to polite literature,
had not read the book; they knew not what
they did; father forgive them. Laughter.l
He did not believe the book. ever so wildly
: circulated, would change the opinion Of /.
man in the country. Was this Union TO be-
overturned because one man advises anoth-
er not TO stop at certain hotels? ~.
Mr.. Corw!n spoke Of the fugitive slave
law declaring that the ma inritv of the lsc-
publican party in Ohio were in favor of it's
enforcement, as long as il remained on tho
statue book.
Mr.. Barksdale Of Miss. inquired if thev
had not turned ont Judge of the Supreme
Court for deciding that ii was constitutional.
! Mr.. Corwn thought that might have been
one cause. but they s1cceIed him with
another good man rhO cdnie from lissi-
sippi. He believed the old law of 1893 was
the better law. -s q
NJ. Cox, of Ohio. There you differ from
Daniel Webster, then? -.
Mr.. Corwiu. Yes, Webster was C. lit,,e
reas' on that point. daughter.

Meeting at Muscatine on Tucsd y last!

THE Boo-uoos.
| At last nights meeting of the Boo IIoos,
after one Of Mr.. Burgesser's oratorical ef-
forts in his usual efforvescens style; the au.
dence, which had previously been rather in
clined 10 the mirthful, was rebukcd in SOL
emn, almost fearful, indeed quite scpulchral
manner by Mr.. Anderson. Chambers. Mr..
G. thought that dark days were upon us,
and that, in view of the recent capture Of
Virginia by Brown and his twenty tw o men,
no man oushtto smile-except in his sleeve,
we suppose. Indeed, he seemed to think
that it might DO said to be treasonabls to
smile in such meeting, except, We suppose,
in the mctaphorical Democratic sense Of
this word rs used at the "har'-not that
our friend ever "smiles''ih that way. ro'
il Now, it does strike MS as peculiarly rid.
diculous, II il were not sad 20 see men Of
sense octso rIdioulously, in view Of the fact
that all the disunion threats come from tho
South where there is a large disunion party,
while there is pone at the North: that the
first move Of Southerners in both houses Of
Congress, this winter, was 10 spring the
s;nigger" question. the disunion bugbear OF,
tho country; that Henry A. Wise, tho man
who hung the brave i hero,. Brown, the
first man to suggest the idea Of fo,cibly
seizing the National Armory and Treasury,
and that the SOutherners arc now openly
avowing that, If aR.pubhcan President is
elected, they will dissolve the Union, while
at the North not a corporal's guard are
bold enough to even hin. at such sentiments;
in view of these fact, it is ,nirth- provoking
to see Northern Locofoco get down on their
knees, and, with tears coursing down their
checks, mplore Northern men not to dis
solve the Union! Gentlemen Boo-Hoos, are
you not ashamed Of yourselves. @@"
