Northern emigration, from Missouri, Iowa,
Illinois, Wisconsin or Michigan, either for CAL
ifornia or any part Of Kansas or Southern Ne
braska, will find q mail route to this point, on
a State Road from Des Moines, Iowa; and as
good roads through Missouri, by way of SavaR-
nah and Oregon, to this place, as to any other
point on the river. There are good landings
on both sides Of the river; and on the Kansas
side, all streams and slOughs, to the Nemaha,
have free bridges, recently made for the Gov
eminent trains from this place to Salt Lake
and Utah. We can say to the California emil
grafton, that they can strike the old California
Road within II miles of this place, and they
will find good grazing for stock within half a
mile of the river, and plenty of wood and water
on the route to the Big Blue, only 80 miles from
here; and they will find this road over 40 miles
shorter than the road from st. Joseph, and over
so miles shorter than that from LeavenWorth.
We refer persons to the map, in proof Of this
statement; and We only ask emigrants and ira
vellers to try this route, and we pledge our
selves 20 pass them over the river free, on their
return, if they are not satisfied Ofthe foregoing
facts.
White Cloud has three or four good stores
and trading houses; two hrst-class Hotels;
lumber is only Sl5 per 900 feet; the country

EAST SAGINAW, MICHIGAN, FEBRUARY 2, 1860.

Importance, large body of white men,
among whom are numbers of industrious
German immigrants, are showing how
much can be done by free labor. All the
conditions requisite for the trial of the
experiment of emancipation were coming
into existence, and Virginic and Mary
land might by this time have severed
themselves from the sisterhood of slave
States, had Il not been for the .tead betDeen
North and South fomented By the abolitionists.
These people have thrown the old civil
lized slave States back under the domin-
ion of the coarse planters of the extreme
South; they have made the division be-
tween the two sections So complete that,
as a member of Congress observed, even
the disruption of the Union would hardly
make much social difference, and all with
out the smallest gain to the negro, but,
on the contrary, to his irreparable loss
Formerly the negroes in the northern
slave States were not debarred from in
struction. If a master or good-natured
mistress chose, the slaves in a family
might be taught to read and write, and
often they were very fair proficients.
But it is not only that the stringency
of the slave-owner's rule has been increas-
ed; the change of opinions in the free
States, is melancholy sign. The re-
marks of Mr.. O'Connor, which we have
quoted, are but fair sample of what
Americans have learnet to think and say.
The change is to be almost entirely at
tributed TO the hatred of abolitionsts, for,
however determined not to meddle with
slavery as long as it produces cotton and
rice, the northerncrs would have indulg-
cd the little hypocrisy of deploring it,
and making sentimental speeches about
the sad burden with which their fore
fathers, the British, had saddled them
1t is only political animosity which has
led to the adoption of slavery as creed
by the mass of Americans, and yet there
can be no doubt that the adoption has
really been made. Nor is it mere bar
rem belief; the "Dred Scott" case shows
that it has found its way to the judicial
bench, and it has been carried out in the
Judgment which made so great sensa-
ton in Europe, and also in the great po-
ltical measure which allows any new
Territory to adopt slavery if it chooses.
We cannot congratulate the abolition
lists on the success of their exertions,
which have plunged the race they favor
into deeper darkness, and have made the
subection of man to man the belief of

A STORY WITH A MoRAL.-Door bell
rings The Rev. Mr--is INTRODUCED to
the family room, where three children are
busily engaged at play sunggled in the
corner of a room-and the monther dill
gently engaged in sewing. She rises to
meet the minister" and salutes him,
while he, with lofty, cold repulsive digni-
ty, says:
"Good morning, Mrs., are you
we'll to day."
And digni6ed takes a seat.
After moments pause, he says in the
same unbending manner:
81 trust, madam, that you have been
well since / saw your"
Thank you, sir, quite WELL"
A brief pause.
al trust you have found consolation
and rejoicing since my last visit" ETC., etc.
And thus passed away some fifteen
minutes-the children all the while hav-
ing suspended their play with kind OF
indescribable fear, which children can
look, glancing wonderingly at the mother.
Rising to depart, with the same unre.
laxing dignity, the clergyman said:
al leave my blessing with you and
your family, Mrs, and will bid you
good morning"
Hardly had the door closed, when a
little boy of four years ran to his mother
and, clinging tightly to her dress, raised
his eyes inquiringly, and with the simple
carnestness of child, said:
Mamma, mamma, was dad Dod?"
