Removal of Webster's Statue in Boston

The Aboitonisis and ultra Republicans Of
Massachusetts, are circulating petitions to the
Legislature of that State to remove from the
State-house grounds the statue Of Daniel
Webster, designed by Powers, which was
recently, with proper soemnities, placed
there by the admirers and friends of that great
statesman. The reasons assigned are thus
stated in Garrison's Liberator and in the pc
tilon itself The former says:
"InE STATUE MUsT BE RtMovED.-Let
this be the popular decree to -morrow-let
the declaration 90 forth from the lips Of ev-
cry upright man-let it be the voice OF
Massachusetts. A vote Of the Legislature
can undo what a vote has done. That vote
can be secured by prompt circulation OF a
respectful petition, to be signed by those who
in their hearts respond to the cry-Me statue
must be remoued.
"7he statue must be removed! AND LET
ALL THE PEOPLE SAY, AMEN"
Here is the petition which receives sigma
lures in the towns of Massachusetts:
40 the Senate and House of Represen
tatives of Tie Commonwealth of Massachu
sets.
1--WE, the undersigned, citizens of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, respect
ask YOU 10 remove from the state house
oromds-as no honor to the State and re-
pugnaut TO the moral sense Of the people
the statue of Daniel Webster, whose last
years were spen: in defending the Fugitive
Slave Bill, and whose last counsel to the
Commonwealth was to conquer her preju-
dices against Save hunting, und TO return
men to bondage with alacrity.'

BEWARE A correspondent of the Sacra-

to beware e buying hives which have been
divided up for the purpose Of speculation.
He says that those fractions of hives are
frequently without queens, and that it will
take two years for them to become strong
enough to swarm, while a natural hive will
produce two or four swarms each summer.

a small stock on the market, holders manifest
no anxiety to sell. The receipts are very light,
showing that the crop in this section of the

The receipts at this place since the list OF

The news from Liverpool to the 2lst nit.
announcing decline in that market OF s@&d,
