re- The Washington States, in re-
cent article, well defines the difficulties un-
der which the democracy Of the Northern
States have labored 1t states that in tbi,
critical contingency they arc appalled, by a
demand for still further and still more EN- :
barrassing concessions. 1t is not enough
that they should sanction slavery in its
most Objectionable aspect, by aiding in the
recaptmei of the fugitive negro-it is not
enough that they should admit slavery into
the Territories under cover of the Consti-
tution-it is not enough that they should
consent to reverse the traditional policy of
the Government. aud to accept the illimit
able extension of Southern institutions
1t is not enough that they should fetter the
arm of Congress. hitherto so active and
efficient in the restriction of slavery. and
evoke the dormant energies ofthe judiciary
for its protection in the federal domain
all these things and more besides. the
Northern democracy have yielded: but
their Southern associates are not content
They must agree to employ the power of
the Government for the propagation of
slavery! 1t is condition they cannot ac-
c,pt. 1t is an cxacton for which they
were not prepared, af,er the solemn recog-
milton OF NoN-INTERvESTloN. among the
fundamental principles Of the PARTY
What wonder now If the Northern democ.
racy now surrender in despair? Who is
surprised when thy say "it is no use for
us to struggle against sach overwhelm-
ing o'i'ls--on one side the frantic fanati
clsm OF our own section; on the other, the
ever increasing exactions of our Southern
allies. Why attempt to bear up nnder
this accumulation of embarassments?-
Over and over again have we encountered
defeat in snrpoFt oof the South. but the
sacrifice IS not yet sufficient. WHY make
further effort, when at best, it will be un-
avaiilng against our foes. and unsatisfac-
tory to our friends?'' Without pausing
to discuss the propricty of the convictions
aud feelings involved in this complaint.
we have no hesitation in affirming that
their prevalence among the Northern DEM
ocracy explains the result of the recent
elections. May the party profit by the

! The Southern Commercial Convention.
We learn that the Southern Commercial

passed resolution by large majority in
favor of opening the slave trade, and firth.

The leading politicians of the South have
declared very generally in iavor of opening
the African Slave Trade. The leading pa

ment.

sary of the American Tract Society. quo

in favor of the trade. Pray what more is
wanted to- convince porthern men, that it
is the design of the South to demand the
repeal Of the law against the African Slave
Tra'le? And tllus-we are advancing, step

Nothing can be more certain than if the
Shamocracy succeed in 1860, they will re-
open the slave trade and establish slave

Republican form OF Government entirely.

PlIT RIVER, Oct 81, 1859.
EDIroR NAL:-My attention has been called
to an article in the Sacramento Union, under the
heading" The Volunteers and U. S. Troops"
The editor doubts the account published in that
paper on the 18th ult., which have read and
pronounce true. The Union in an insinuating
way, says the - Rangers should be proud of their
achievements since the Pitt River campaign
commenced" That paper is informed that most
of the " Rangers are old Indian fighters, and
really believe themselves capable of doing more
service in an Indian campaign, than twice their
number of L. S. troops.
1t is true that portion Of Capt. Adams com
pany went scouting, recently. Their guides were
Richard Pugh, aud an Indian belonging to the
identical tribe they were searching for. The In
dian would travel in advance of the troops, and
on reaching n ranchera, alarm the Indians, aud
when the troops arrived there would be d" nary

by day, while the volunteers do their searching
by night, which accounts for their finding them.

Killed By L. s.. troops 1t occurred about six weeks
ago, under the following circumstances Lieut.
Brewer, with II detachment Of men, found Dig
GER ranch, and instead of attacking it at day
break he marshaled his men and made bold
charge at o'clock in the afternoon. OF course
the Indians discovered the troops and took to the
thicket. Twenty Sharp's rifles were discharged
into the deserted Indian ranch, killing blind
and dcfcnoeess old squaw, aud they took one
prisoner-a child Of three years, which is still
at the Fort This statement came from one Of
the troops engaged.
The valiant Capt. Flint who charged about
Sacramento, huntng the Union editor, for the
purpose Of getting hs name printed, lay camped
on Antelope Creek until within IL month, and
never was out day. After his men were all ta-
ken sjci, he moved a. Pitt River valley. To my
knowledge they never left camp but once. A
party of emigrunts u.ar 10y had two Of their hor-
ses stolen by the Indians, and requested the as
sistnnce Of the troops TO recover them. n de
tachment Of fifteen men were sent out. About
half mile distant they found plum patch.

How deeply within the lone bosom
The fountains of feeling are stirred,
When weary with wand'rng, and longing
For home, some one whispers the word
How quick the tired pulses are waking,
How wildly they thrill at the sound,
As DER the deep waters are breaking
The musical words, " llomeward bound ~
In moment the thoughts are straying
With memory in loves golden light;
Aud sweetly the forms of the absent
Are lingering again on the sight.
Glad voices are mingled in greeting,
And welcoming echoes resound,
As wide DER the current are sweeping
The soul stirring words, "lomcward Bound
Thus with the lone pilgrim when wearied
With sorrow, and longing for rest,
AS ever his spirit is turning
From earth, TO that home OF the blest

And wildly the tempest may sound
But swcetly his spirit is murm ring lBound."

Sweet echoes from heavens green shore;

THE True MMDENHooD.--In one breast the true
wife prepares for her husband a course of love
Every day she offers a new heart to be won. Ey-
cry day the woman he could reach Is gone, and
there again before him is the inaccessible maiden
who will not accept to-day the behavior Of yes.
terday This withdrawal and advancement from
hight to hight is true virginity, which never lies
down with love, but keeps him always on foot
and girded for fresh pursuit. Noble lovers rely
on no pledges point to no past engagements, but
prefer to renew their relation from hour to hour.
The heroic woman will command and not solicit
love- Lethm go when cease TO be all to him,
when can no longer fill the horizon Of his i'm

THE PULPIT AND THE MAssEs.--The New York

day reaches the masses Of the people, asd fears
it does not. We quote:
"Upon luxurious couchos, surrounded by gid
ing aud carvery, on pleasant Sunday, when not
too hot or cold, too wet or dry, a galy- dressed
multitude listen sleepily, first to soft music be-
hind them and then TO the musical voice before
them and when the hour-and a.half isspent, the
rustling silks out to the sound Of the organ,
and the pulpit remains a cold, uumeaning piece
Of mummcry. Outside, the multitude rush by
unheeding and unheedcd. There is no pulpit for
them. Vice and misery, in ten thousand forms,
are rioting, and stihing, and destroying cruelty
and oppression are rampant amidst our churches,
and the groans Of the victims minglc with the
church bells Does the pulpit reach the masses? {?
That is something for us to answer as Christians
For if it does not, the masses will never reach
