The Secretary of the Interior on
the Slave Trade.

During his visit to North Carolina, Secre
tary Thompson thus expressed himself con-
cerning the absurd idea of re-opening the
slave trade:
I'm my own State class of restless refor-
mers have started movement which demands
the re-opening of foreign slave trade. Laws
which were passed fifty years ago, at the
urgent instance of the Southern States, pro-
hibfting the slave trade, their longer contin-
uance on the statue book, it is claimed, is
destructive of the progress and prosperity of
the South. In the advocacy of this new
theory some able men have enlisted /; but L
do not believe there is one among them who
believes the ends he aims at can ne7er be
accomplished while the Union lasts; and God
forbid that a movement fraught with such
numbered curses upon the South should
ever succeed But suppose the demand is
made upon Congress to reopen the slave
trade, and Congress should refuse to yield
TO the demand, shall the South, taking fire
at the refusal, strike for disunion? For one,
1 shall oppose the re-opening of the foreign
slave trade, In the Union or out of it; anc
when that movement is made, which feai

THE LINE OF THE FRosr.-The black line
of the great frost extended from about Auburn
N Y, on the North west. to Columbus,
Ohio, on the Southwest. This line, straight
as stretched string, shows the deadliest
track of the frost. OF course there was frost
beyond these extremes, but the loud COM
plants of damage can be bounded by these

SO far as corn and potatoes and garden crops

the cold has killed the insects there has been
a benefit which may even exceed the injury

before, the last scene is the attempt to Lold
lash over the Judiciary-the immediate safeguard
of our rights as American citizens.
Senator Wade, who presided over the Conven-
'tion which refused to re-nominate Jude Swan, IN
speech delivered on public occasion short
time before the assembling of the Convention,
used the following language: eff the Supreme
Court does not grant the habeas corpus, the peo-
pie of the Western Reserve must grant it-sword
in hand, if need be-" This wss the spirit which
pervaded the Convention when it refused to re-
nominate Judge Swan, because he had refused at
the dctation of party leaders to violate his oath
Of office and the Constitution and laws of the
United States. If he had done SO, be would
have been re-nominated; because he refused to
do SO, he was defeated. Is this not an effort to
strike down that independence which should
characterize the Judicary-an attempt to control
by political influence tribunal which the safety
of society demands should be uninfiuenced by
any feeling of political private prejudice. The
fanaticism of the Black Republican party is just
beginning fully to develop itself. The Kansas
excitement has died out, and it is compelled to
resort to other expedents in order to preserve its
| existence for the contest of 1860. The days Of
| its glory are over, and the Democracy will en-
counter but little difficulty in electing their can
didate for the Presidency in the coming struggle

U Madam Willis, noted astrologist,s was
recently arrested in New York city. The Mayor
on hearing the case, let her off on fine OF S25,
on condition of her leaving the city in twenty
four hours. She prof,ssed to be able to tell ro-
mantle young ladies all about their ''lovyers,"
and how to procure husbands. She was doing
"smashing business at the time she was arres-
ted. She stated in her advertisements that she
was the seventh daughter of the seventh daugh-

faculty of prying into the future. a number OF

THE CRoPs-It is refreshing to learn daily,
that the prospects of the wheat crop are encour-
aging, and are every day growing brighter This
is good news for the people, but bad news for
spectators in grain and flour. Wheat as gen
eral thing has not been injured by frost Fields OF
wheat which at first appeared badly injured, are
rapidly recovering, and will yield good crop.
Several farmers in this county, a few days after
the frost, supposing their wheat was entirely des
troyed. cut it for the purpose of making hay or
fodder out of it. We think they were too fast;
they should have waited awhile The Pittsburg
Press of Monday. contains the following instan-
ces of how far many farmers erred in estimating
the effects of injury.
A gentleman of Washington county, conclu-
ding that his whole crop was destroyed, was told
| by neighbor that he should not complain, as he
would have plenty of wheat. To prove that he
was sincere, however, the farmer offered all his
standing wheat for fifteen dollars, which was
promptly paid. In few days he found that he
had made sad mistake, as his crop had great Y
recovered, and he actually offered one hunred and
fifty dollars for what he had sold for fifteen-but
the money was refused. We would not desire to
speculate in that way, and we think the purcha-
ser should have let the farmer have his wheat
again.
A party of men were discussing the subject in
a store at kittanning, when one farmer, who had
fifteen acres in wheat, declared that he would
sell the whole for five dollars. The storekceper
bought the standing grain at the price specified
aud if he keeps it he will make a handsome spec.
ulation.
Another of the same party offered thirty acre.
of wheat for dollar, provided the purchaser
would cut it and deliver him the straw. Th,
money was paid by gentleman with whom W,
f are intimately acquainted but in few days tht
farmer rued his bargain, sought the purchaser
and was anxious to know how much he woulC
S take to ''trade back" The purchaser good na
, turedly told him that he would ''do it bacl
again. provided the farmer would treat! The,
took drink together, aud the farmer made
7 possessor of his wheat fields once more. We nigh
multiply instances, but these will suffice.

Amother GREAT Isattle.

The late news flom Europe are deeply inter
esting. On the 4th inst, great battle was
fought at Magenta, near Milan, between the
Austrians and French, in which the French were
victorious Napoleon commanded in person.
The accounts received are very meagre and un-
satisfactory, but we have enough to know that
the slaughter was terrible On both sides. The
following is the account of the battle, furnished
by the Telegraphic Dispatch:
desperate battle was fought at Magenta, on
the 4th of June, between the allied army under
the Emperor Napoleon, and the Austrian army
under Gen. Hess, in which unlimited forces were
engaged on both sides. The Emperor Napoleon,
in MS dispatches to the Empress at the Tuiler-
les, claims decisive victory, saying that his
army took 1000 prisoners, disabled 10000. and
captured three cannons and two standards. He
estimates the loss of his own army at 3Oo0 but
it was rumored in Paris that the French loss was
between 5000 and $1,000. 1t is reported that
there were from $50, 600 to 180, 900 Austrians,
and 13O, 900 French engaged in the battle. The
Austrian accounts differ widely from those of the
| French Their bulletins speak of various battles
| being fought with varying success on both sides
1t was still undecided on the night of the 9Th, as
| to who gained the victory. Great losses on both
sides ave reported. Gen. Espinassl, of the End
| corps d'armee. was killed. and Marshal Caurober
of the third corps, mortally wounded. 0en
Maurice Mcmahon, commanding the Znu corp:
