na- There arrived at Columbus, Ohio. on
the 2ad inst; ;wenty-one slaves, lately the
property of a gentleman, deceased, in Neck
lensbargh county, Va, who manumitted
them, by will, and provided for their settle
ment on lands of their own in Ohio. He
did not free all Of bis sla7es, but selected
those who had been most faithful, and were,
in his opinion, the most capable Of taking
care of themselves. One of the. men, after
reaching Ohio, declared his intention of re-
turning to Virginia and resuming his servi-
tude.

1t denies the power of the people of a
Territory to prohibit slavery therein by
Legislative enactment. ~ f5ssE re-EE
1t opposed and defeated the passage OF a
law at the last session of Congress, secur-
ing homes to actual settlers on our public
lands.
1t has, for the purpose of mainiaing
political power, forced upon the country the
agitations Of questions affecting slavery,
calculated to,disturb, the harmony and to en-
danger the perpetuity of the Union of the
States. .-..,
1t has attempted to extend and to per-
petuate slavery in Kansas by its efforts to
force the Lecompton Constitution upon the
people of that Territory contrary to their
wishes. -'i ..Fir- $500 -.T.Iris
1t has become corrupt and extravagant in
the management of the affairs of the State

1t has failed to give that encouragement

Harbors Of national character, which the in

persons from Indinna to occupy seats in the

INDIANA WooL.-The first premium for
wool at the late Wool Growers Meeting at
Cleveland, was awarded to Mr.. Alexander
Black, of Putnam county, in this State. He
had to meet in competition the wool of Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Michigan, Illinois, and we
believe of New York, yet his enterprise and
skill enabled him to show a better product
than any of them.

A QUEER DENOCRAT.-The election OF
General Houston as Governor of Texas is
claimed BY the organs as a triumph of the
so-called National Democracy. Runnels
was the regular nominee of the Convention,
as he was at the previous election, when he
beat Houston some 10000 votes. Runnels'
success then was victory; Houston's sue
cess now, is still victory for the same par
ty. The Chicago Times is gratified at Mr..
HOustons success, because he is better
Democrat than his opponent. As an evil
dence OF the genuineress of old San Jacin.

MUSCATINE MARKET.

The roads during the week have not be en-
in very good condition yet business has been
quite brisk The receipts Of grain from the
country have been fair for the season.
About 1000 bushels of wheat per day have
been broughtin, except on Monday, on which
day the receipts are always light. Most of
the wheat now arriving in the market comes
from Linn and Jones counties. Prices con-
tinue at rather high rates, compared with
other markets. Wheat has great lumber
of grades, however and it is difficult to
fix the price accurately. New spring ranges
from As to 65 cents, and old spring from 70
TO 80 cents. One dollar per bushel, how
ever, was paid this week at the Nevada Mill
for q choice lot of 200 bushels prime club
old spring wheat. 1t was raised by Mr..
|Vallette, of Moscow township, who having
taken pains to keep it dry has preserved it
in as good condition as when it was put in
the shock. Flour manufactured from such
wheat meets with ready sale at So per
cwt.
I Pork-The packing houses are winding
up their business. Very little pork is now
coming in, and the season may be considered
about closed. Prices remain as last week

Washington in order to preserve it from decay and

If there are any who do not fully understand the
object, terms Of purchase, &C., let them read the
appeal of our Vice Regent, Mrs. Van Antwerp, Of
Keokuk, (too well known here to need euogy from
my pen,) to the people of Iowa, which has been pub
lished and very generally circulated through the
State. Almost every other State in the Union has
long since been up and doing in this matter Iowa
has but just begun. In every city or town Of any
Importance strenuous exertions are now being made
to raise rs much Us possible in time for transmits

the Association the whole amount ($2O0, 00O) will

national movement. The Vice -Regent has appoint
ed Mrs. F. II. Stone, Mrs. Judge Woodward, Mrs.
Gen. J. G. Gordon and myself to attend to the in
terests of the Association in this place.

labor, having decided to delay it until something
had been done for our own poor. 1t is to be hoped
before this week is ended that will have been
accomplished, at least sufficient for the present

some gentlemen, this committee have decided to
make it entirely optional with them. Although it
