Western sentinel. [volume] (Winston [i.e. Winston-Salem], N.C.) 1856-1886, 1859-11-04
From the Washington constitutional
to Judge Blacks Pamphlet.

We publish below an appenix to Judge
Black S ''Observation on Senator Douglass
Views on Popular Sovereignty called
forth on demand for second edition by
Judge DIS attempt to rely to those cob
servations" at Wooster, Ohio, and by the
commentaries which have been made on
them by some Of his friends. The appen-
dix, couched in the same dignitied. unim
passioned language as the "Observation,
is marked by the same force Ct thought,
closeness of reason, and felicity Of express
sion that characterized the pamphlet. 1t
lays bare to the very bone the flaws and i'm
perfections of Judge Douglass Views on
Popular Sovereignty" modified, amended
and altered, though they have been by re-
Election and by circumstances; shows that
all attempts to give new readings of the
Constitution which the Supreme Court
does not warrant, are sure to lead to dis
astrous consequences, and recommends all
who desire to preserve an unblemished po-
litcal reputation to respect the principles
and acknowledge the binding force of the
| guarantees ofthe great Charter of our Lib
| critics.
We commend the appendix to the ear
nest perusal of our readers and Of the A.
merican people generally.

lie DR1NKs.-How ominous that SEN
tence falls How we pause in conversation
and calculate, It's a pity 7 low his
mother hopes he will not when he grows
older; how his sisters persuade themselves
that It is only a few wild oats that he Is
sowing! And yet the old men shake their
heads and feel gloomy while they think OF
it. Young man, just commencing life,
buoyant with hopes, don't drink 1ou
are freighted with a precious cargo. The
hopes OF your parents, of your sisters, of
your wife, Of your children, all are laid
down upon you. In you the aged live
over again their days I; through you only

which you place them, must your children
go into the great struggle for life.

BURNING OF HUMAN BODIES FOE FUEL
The first and only railroad in Africa, was
completed a few months ago. Itconnects
Alexandria, the chief Egyptian seaport
with Cairo. The most remarkable fact
connected with this evidence of progress
in Egypt, is the use of human bodies for
fuel The locomotives are fed with this
novel food, and actually derive their
strength from the burning bones and flesh
Of men, ss ~

The Rev Dr. Mitchell, Professe
stry, MineraIogy and Geology, in
ity OF North Carolina, lost his life
ic exploration of the Black Mountain
st land east of the Mississippi, and w
ID on Mount Mitchell, its most elevated P
une 10th, 1858.
Where is he, Mountain Spirit?
Dread Mountain Spirit. say
That honored Son of Science
Who dared thy shrauded way?
Oh, giant-firs whose branches,
In gloomy grandeur meet,
Did ye his steps imprson
w thin your dark retreat?
Ye Mists and muffled Thunders
That robe yourselves in black,
lave YOU his steps ,deluded
To wander from the track
Make answer-have ye seen him?
For hearts with fear are how'd,
And torches like the wandering stars,
Clean out above the cloud.
Sound hunters horn haste mountain ers.
Lo, on the yielding fern,
Are these his footprints DER the ledges
Will he no more return?
He cometh !--How2--As marble comes
With dripping locks, and rigid brow,
Comes back the noble dead.
Der that deep, watery mirror,
With sxeety pensive grace,
The graceful Rhododendron leand
To look upon his face.
While, mid the slippery gorges,
The gorgeous laures stand,
Which, f;tithless, like the broken reed,*
Betrayed his grasping hand.
No crystal. in its hermit bed,
No strata of the dales,
No stranger, plant, or noteless vine,
LII Carollnlan wales;
No she'll upon her shore,
No ivy on her wall
No winged bird, reptile form,
But he could name them all.
So Nature hath rewarded him
Who loved her sacred lore,
With such pillow of repose
As man ne'er had before.
A monument that biddeth
Old Egypt's glory hide,
With all her kingly pyramids,
In all their rude-hill pride.
Up!-up courageous mountaineers-
Each nerve and sinew strain
For what ye do from love this day
Veneer shalldo again.
From beetling crag to summit,
So ominous and steep,
They force their venturous way, where scarce
The chamois dares to leap.
There, many thousand feet above
Atlantics surging height
Prelate an priest with lifted hands,
Invoke the God of Might;
And then the cloud-encircled cliff
Its granite bosom spread,
And in the strong and close embrace
Unlocked the sanity dead.
So in thy sepulchre of rock,
Followers of Jesus, rest,
Serene approachless and sublime,
Until the mountain crest
Shall redden with the fires of doom,
And Earth affrighted stand!
Then joyful leave thy Pisgah tomb,
And tread the promised Land.
Hartford, February 16, 1859.

But few people are aware of the immense
falling off in the staple agricultural products
of the older States, as exhibited by the census
reports New England, for instance, in l84O,
raised over 100000 bushels of wheat, but in
1850 she yielded but LOCO, O,0O0-a decline of
fifty per cent in ten years.. The population
in the mean time had considerably increased.
There has been a considerable decline, un-
doubtedly, since 1850. The four States of
Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia, and Alabama,
which raised $4,000, 600 bushels of wheat in
1910. raised but 100000 bushels in 1880
The number of sheep in the State of New
Y ork had decreased so much that there were
nearly 100000 less than there were thirty years
ago. Within period of five years the de-
crease has been nearly fifty per cent, while the
decrease in the number of horses, cows, and
swine is above fifteen per cent. In l945 the
product of wheat was 1891 40 bushels. 1t
has steadily declined since, and the product o
the past year did not exceed 100000 bushels
The older sections of our country arc be
coming more and more dependent upon the
praneries of the northwest for their supplies o
leading agricultural products. Their land Is
getting worn out and unproductive. and thu
people are turning their attention to manufac
lures and commerce. In time, scientific agri
culture, directed by the resources of wealth
will reclaim, in all its old fertility, these dis
tricts; but for the present they must look else
where in a measure, for the great supplies @
the staff of life. The opening of the new Tel
ritories, soon to become States in the West,
the greatest of blessings to the old Atanti
States, not only as relieving them of considers
BILE population they can well spare, but as a.
sisting to keep down the price of agriculture
products to a reasonable figure.
