ST. PETERSBURG, Nc

ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. %, 1858,
The question Of Emancipation, SO far as ii de.
2snds upon the Emperor, is getting on rapidly
lie has just ordered that the serfs belonging to the
mines, under the direction t the Minister of FL
nance, be freed in six months, and three Commit.
tees have been organized to carry this order into

another for Oronburg, and the third for the UraL.

We must remember that all the peasantry employ.
ed in the mines were originally free. But Peter
the Great, who wished to encourage Woodworking
in Russia, gave to all who desired it, nobles as we'll
40 merchants, villoges and forests, where they
could get the wood necessary for their FORCES.
The powers of these new proprietors over the
peasants who inhabited these villages was limited;
but little by little it was extended until these peas
ants became actual serfs.
ST.. PETERSBURG, Nov. %, 1858.
The landholders of Poland have made an attempt
to secure themselves as firmly as they can agsins,
the consequences of emancipation. The ~oultivat.
ors of Polish estates are personally free, but they
are dependent on the proprietors for the land.

the cu,tivators cannot be expelled from the land;
which they have cleared, nor from those which

The Quo LEGlsLArURE.-The legislature of this
State lie now in session. 1t legislates with the ut.
most alacrity for the benefit of shareholders, and
delights to humble the authority Of the State and
submit tho liberties of the citizen to their will
AS the Governor has no veto upon their acts, they
can sacrifice without stint to the Moloch they wor.
ship. From the infamous work Of last winter we
learn what may be expected of them the present.
At their last session these Democratic Legislators
repealed the act Of the previous legislature for the
prevention Of Kidnapping and slaveholding in the
State Of Ohio. Tho gratuitous enormity Of this
act is the more manifest from the character Of the
act repealed, which expressly excepted from its
application, all kidnapping and slaveholding pro-
vided for by the constitution rs interpreted by the
fugitive slave laws of Congress. All that that re.
publican law proposed, was to prevent Kidnapping
and slaveholdiDg without authority from federal
laws and federal commissioners and narshais.-
But these Democratic Legislators are for the lar.
gest liberty of kidnapping in Ohio. They are for
game laws and restrictions in hunting she beasts
of the forests and the fowls of heaven, but for no
restriction when they snuff the scent of fugitive
slave. They are for no invidious discrimination
If Deacon Gaines and the Reverends Gorsuch and
Dennison are permitted the free range of our hills
and valleys in their man hunts. surely Ohio Dem.
ocrats should not be denied the precious right of
developing their instincts, by yelping on the track
Of the noble game for gold, or for pure patriotism
as the case may be. This right We say was re-
stored last winter and the persona. liberty bill Of
the Republicans repealed.
Next followed the repeal of the HaJcas Corpus
act of 1856. Then also the repeal Of the law OF
the previous legislature which prohibited the use
Of our state jails for the confinement Of the fugitive
slaves they might hunt down.
These measures were perfected last winter. Be-
sides, they introduced but did not bring to compile.
ton, an act entitled IAN act to prohibit negro and
mulatso persons from immigrating into the State
of Ohio" AT the close Of the last session this bill
was left in the hands of the judiciary Committee
CT the Senate, o fcourse our Legislative patriots vii
not fail to give it due consideration this session.
What other enormities of similar kind will be per
petrated under tho form of legislation, time onl,
will reveal.
Such are the majority who make laws for tn,
State Of Ohio.

ty of the people of this Union have the will to
place an abolitionist over us, and VIC sso know
that they will do it rs soon as they get che power.
Why, then, should the South secede when such
a man is elected ? lie would not rai'e an army
and march to the slave States no would not at
tempt to liberate our slave nor would he incite
them to insurrection. We believe that If Seward
was elected to the Presidency tomorrow, affairs
would 90 on just as they have for several years
they would keep ~crowding us q little more ; they
they would gradually deprive as of one right after
another, and keep drawing the circle of our liber'
ties closer and closer. This is what we dread II
we though; such an event woull bring about a
collision. and bring matters to a crisis, We would
be less Respondent, but we believe that our ensla'
vemeni would be gradual, as it has been, and that
we would hesitate until it was too late.
Now, We believe there have been several act:
contaminated by Congress which were as much
and as good a cause for secession as the election oil
an abolition President. The rejection of Kansas
was Just as odious to the South ms the election oil
Seward can be, and we arc not in favor Of putting
the day OF resistance n long way ahead. lie who
gives himself several years 20 do an hours work
will be apt to leave it undone, and if the south
silently suffers real evils. and keeps on placing
the hour Of resistance a little farther ahead, sht
will never resist. 1t would be much better to le
that hour come whenever we are again injured
whether it be a day or q year hence. And W.
hold that the hanging Of o ships crew foa engag
ing in the slave trade, or forcibly preventing
band Of emigrNnts from sailing from q Southern
port, is better grounds for secession than the cleo
ton of Seward or Chase would be. Such is on,
deliberate opinion.

to make at the Court House on Monday evening,

our account to have been substantially correct.

authority we gave it, aud upon whom we are
disposed to rely in preference to the editors
own statement, having due Difference, of course,
to his well known veracity. If the editor re-
Allies fully his failure to startle the whole COM
munity by simply dratcing rusty single-bar-

himself for committing such boyish blunder,
and We regard his objections TO our version of
the fight as sort of casing off of his inward
chagrin. We would advise the editor of the
Times to "put up his white" The practice of
shooting people was condemned before you got
out of your testament, and you have had every

WAsHISsToS Jan. 26.-The House Commit
tee of Ways and Means had prutracted and
animated meeting this morning on the subject
. of the tariff. The Chairman, Mr.. Phelps Of Mo-,
placed before them bill in accordance with the
suggestion of the Secretary Of the Treasury
MIR. Morrill,, of VI, presented one which was
supported by two other opposition members,
Mr.. Hazard, OF Mich, and Mr.. Davis Of Md,
containing principally specific duties composed
and adnxed with advalOrum duties compound
ed and adrnixed with adya!orum rates Mr..
Phillips, of Pa, introduced bill based upon
the tariff OF 1916, with n SHIRT list of specific
duties and retaining the principal part Of the
free list of the act OF 1897. Neither Of projects
seem to be acceptable to a majority of the
Committee, Messrs. Letcher, DOwdel and Craw-
ford being opposed to any change in the tariff
at the present time. As less than majority can
not make formal report, the probability Is
that nothing on this subject Wll be reported
from the Committee this session. The above
named bills may however be brought into the
House by courtesy with u view oil Obtaining
decision on their separate merits.
