tell him in word. Let the South Icy aside, and
cease to present and recur to- its outrageous and
insulting claim to all the Territories Of the United
States, existing and TO come, for the spread of
Slavery. The demand is alike new, irritating, and
offensive to generation schooed in the firm belief
of the equality of human rights, and that this Gov
ernment was created for the spread Of Freedom
end not Slavery. Let it repudiate the modern
heresy taught by short-sighted politicians, that
Slavery is blessing and should be indefinitely
spread and indefinitely perpetuated-a dogma OF
scope so great as to carry with it the inevitable re-
opening of the African slaye-trade as measure
dictated by the highest philanthropy.
We do not choose and do not need to discuss
these two fundamental points of our existing con-
troyersy with the South at this time. We present
them TO the consideration Of Gov. Letcher in good
faith, and we know lie must appreciate their full
force. We know, and he knows, that since the
time when Mr. Rufher wrote his pamphlet, and
Mr.. Letcber udorsed it, both the points in question
have arisen and been forced upon him and been
forced upon us of the North. We know, and he
knows, that when Mr.. Ruflner wrote and he ap-
proved, what We now ask OF tue South as cohdi-
ton of the restoration Of the old state of feeling be-
tween North and South was then freely yielded and
its denial would not have been dreamed Of. Aud
We do not hesitate to express the unrefe1ed con-
yicton that the old harmony that sdbsisted between
North and South when Raffner wrote bis pamphlet
and Lercher approved it, would be restored Ii the
South would 10 day recede from the offensive posi-
tons she now holds, TO the moderate and proper
attitude that section of the Coniederacy then held
in regard to the whole Slavery question
We submit that our position is fully sustained oy
the facts of the case, and that it is complete an
sver TO the demand for some reasonable course OF
,ction that shal reiustate the old relations between
North and South, and ward oil those perli1 that

POLICEMEN REQUIRED TO SEE IN THE DARK
Two policemen of Houston, Texas, were re-
Gently fined one hundred dollars each, because
they could not distinguish, in the night, q
white man from a negro. The circumstances
as detailed by local paper, are the follow
ing: The officers were watching for slaves or
after hours; they saw man in the distance
and called aloud to him. He happened to be
a stranger to the customs of the country, and
supposed they had designs on his personal
property; whereupon he ran, was pursued by
the policemen, knocked down and beaten
severely. The paper referred to says that the
city can never expect to have good officers
ones, and advises the injured man TO sue the
municipality for damages. The Texas
standard for a good officer seems to be one
who can see in the dark, and who will exer-
else his brutality only on negroes.

Law REPoRT.



Hannah Stewart u.s. Charles Warren. This
case proceeded before Judge Storer. The
plaintiffs counsel read dispositions in relation
TO her habits of living-her economy and
industry. John Bates was examined touch
ing the nature Of the plaintiffs engagement
at the National Theater-her salary and the
time of her service as an actress. The wit
ness said she was an industrious and saving
woman, and attended to her business. Testi-
mony offered by the defense in relation TO
her character for unchastity was rejected by
the Court
Chas. Warren, the defendant, was called to
the stand, and testified that he was sent for
by plaintiff, to instruct her in music; that
his tuition extended over q period of six
years; that he also instructed her child
rem that he received from her altogether, at
various times, in all, 81 l,l5s; but that he had
repaid it, and that a large balance was due
him for tuition. He denied that there was any
marriage contract between the parties, as he
was already married; he also denied that he
had boarded with plaintiff, or had ever slept
n night in her house. When in New York, in
her company, he registered their names as
"Charles Warren and lady"
Alf Burnett testified that plaintiff claimed
Mr.. Warren as her husband, but never heard
her make any money demand upon him. The
witness said her reputation for truth was bad,
and he would not believe her under oath il
she was interested.
George Selves and T. Sands had heard her
claim money from Mr.. Warren for sleeping
with her.
Rebutting evidence will be introduced for
plaintiff.

Curious Indian Legend About the Rock
.. Mountains. 81. ........

There is quaint tradition existing among
the Indians of the Northwest, in connection
with the snow-peaks of Mounts Baker, Haner,
st. Helen's and Hood, of the Cascade range
of the Rocky Mountains. .eI .aaa =
The lofty peaks were supposed, when the
world was young to be Tyees-Kings- of
the lesser mountains of their respective dis
tricts. Here they ruled in kingly grandeur,
receiving from their subjects such homage as
is due to great chiefs, and in themselves ac-
knowledging no superior except the Great
Spirit. For ages their reign was an uninter-
rupted scene Of peace and happiness. Seas,
lakes and mighty rivers bathed their feet, and
their sides were clothed with evergreen
forests. Here the beasts and fishes roamed
in primeval bliss, fearing neither the hunter
nor the fisherman, for man was not yet here
But in time, like nations, discord arose
among them. Each chiefassumed the quarrel
of his subjects, and an unrelenting war was
the result. In their rage they belched forth
fire and smoke, and hurled at each other fiery
rocks, desolating their fair sides; choking uI
| the lakes and rivers with their fragments
and destroying the inhabitants of both land
and water. For years this conflict ragged
with demoniac fury, until the Great Spirit
became angry, and bade them cease Their
| quarrel and close their very mouths. Ant
| to punish them for their folly and their sill
| in laying waste their fair domains, he covered
| them each with an eternal mantle of snow
| From that time peace has reigned among
them, although occasionally they have NUT
tered and given signs of rebellion; but the
| Great Spirit points, with significant smile
| to their snowy fetters, and their burning
| spirits sink deep within their bosoms.

An Accomplished villaIn-His Romantic
VilIainies.

A man undergoing imprisonment in the
prison of Boulogne-sur-Mer for robbery
under the assum ed name of Aaron, has been
recognized as one of very desperate band
of burglars, seventeen in number, who were
arrested in the South of France in 1851, but
all of whom, singular to relate, succeeded in
escaping. This Aaron, who effected his
escape from the prison at Pau, was sent back
there. Recently he was brought to trial
before the Court of Assizes of the Basses-
Pyrenees for robbery and burglary. In an
swer to the President, he stated that he had
passed by the different names of Alexander,
Henri, Dufour, Leon, Martin, Jacob and
Aaron, but his real name is David; also that
he had represented himself to be Belgian
and a Roman Catholic, but that he is really
q Frenchman and q Jew.
He said also that he had been condemned
in almost every one of those names; and that
after his escape in 1851 he went to Brussels
where he was condemned to four years inn
prisonment for robbery which he underwent;
that then he went to Germany and to Eng
land; and that on returning from England he
had stopped at Boulogne, and had there been
condemned. Proof was then given of several
robberies and burglaries committed by him
in 1850 and 1851 and among them were these;
At Libourne, where he resided some little
time, he passed himself off as a corn-cutter,
and by affecting to bea rigid Jew, obtained
the confidence of rich Israelite trader,
named Doliveira. He ended by robbing him
of 0,000f. worth of goods At Bayonne, he
broke into the shops of a matchmaker and
lacemaker, and stole from one goods TO the
value of 12,000f., and from the other 10,0O0f.
1t was stated to the Court that the prisoner
had extraordinary skill in Disgusting himself,
and that he spoke several languages with IA
cility. The jury declared the man guilty,
and condemned him to twenty years hard
labor

A BUILDING FIRED BY Toy BALLOON
The New Orleans Picdyune gives the follow
ing as a key to fires A gentleman residing
in the rear of Ursulines-street was sitting on
his back gallery, reading book, yesterday
afternoon, when, casually looking up, he saw
a blaze under his kitchen Running out to
the back yard he found q small balloon with
a ball of cotton impregnated with spirits
burning right under the bull building It was
in extinguishing the fire. The balloon ignit-
ing in the air, had fallen in the back yard,
and had probably been blown under the
kitchen by, the wind. But for the timely
discovery Of this accident, we would have to
record another unexplainable case of fire, for
the gentleman was alone in the house at the
time, and there was no FIRE about the premises
