goods, thronged with Winnebago Gus
toners, are now standing deserted and
empty. relics Of the Winnebago past
the !" flush times"-when Indian pay
ments made money plenty, and every
man in all the region round about, got
some. Major Fridley was our great
man. He came up with the "big box
es" of specie. Indian traders were as
thick as blackberries, and so were In
dians. Itasca, in those days, was the
iounging place for the Indians. 1t was
opposite the mouth of Grow River,
where Dayton now stands. The two
important traders among them fol-
lowed with their goods, and hence these
two buildings now empty and forsaken.
Beatty was the master spirit of Itasca,
as well as the founder. The old s.Tav-
ern Stand" remains--but a wreck of
what it was, in the more prosperous
days of which we have spoken. Here
our Jottings must stop for this week.

The Difference.

Mr.. lverson, U. S. Senator from
Georgia, used the following language as
embodying his views Of Slavery
:" The southern people do not admit
that slavery is moral wrong, social
evil, or politician course on the con-
trary. they believe it right in the sight
of Heaven, salutary in its social bearing
and objects, and conducive to the high
est development Of political blessings.
They must, therefore, look upon all men
who take the Iopposite ground, and
who condemn slavery in the abstract, as
the enemies Of their peculiar institution,
and as committed, sooner or later, to
its final destruction.
Mr.. Pugh, Senator from Ohio, nobly
replied as follows. We honor Mr..
Pugh for his independence, despite
party dictation for so far as he goes,
he speaks truly and fearlessly the Nor
thern sentiment
WeH3 sir, without presuming to dicr
tate to the people Of Georgia, or to de-
eide for them in regard to the social
moral. or political aspects of slavery,
| must acknowledge, even at the risk OF
the Senator's high displeasurc, that we
have not been favored, in the State of
Ohio, with any authentic revelation OF
the Divine will commanding us to own
slaves and although thus deprived o.
what the Senator estecms essential to
our social and political prosperity, we
have managed to exist after fashion,
and are somewhat acquainted with the
arts of civilized life. And | must ac-
knowledge, furthermore, if this he the
true standard Of Democratic " sound
ness" as expressed in the paragraph |
have just quoted, | am not only "un-
sound" myself, but all my constituents,
OF all parties, are utterly, incurably, and
hopeIessly unsound. Therefore, now
that | understand the rule by which the
Senator has juged me. do not wonder
that he pronounced pe unsound
Two years since Mr.. Pugh would not
have dared to characterize the Institu-
ton as wrong. He would have deemed
it impolitic and dangerous. He would
have been denounced as disorgan-
izer" and bolter. The times have
changed here in the North, and men
change with them. The omnipo ent
power of public opinion is fast opening
the eyes of politicians. 1t is good
omen. Mr. Iverson and Mr.. Pugh are
both democrats.

"a South Side" complains Of us
because, in former article, we placed
the name Of Gov. Wise in the same
line with that of Wendell Phillips, We
certainly meant no harm to the Cover
nor. We have no doubt that could the
friends of Wendell Phillips be heard,
they would say they were the ones that
ought 10 complain However, this is
all matter Of taste. We can't say
which was most damaged by the juxta-
position. Bn. as '' South Side" knows,
and has made his complaint personally,
we, as a courteous gentleman, are
bound to listen to it. We wish all our
readers to understand, then, that from
abundant caution for the personal and
political safety Of the Ex-Governor, we
remove him from so dangerous proxi,ni-
ty to the great Massachusetts abolition
ist, and put in his place the Hon. Mr.
Keitt Of South Carolina. We have no
fears of Keitt. He is little fellow, but
a live fire eater. Now, let AIr. Philips
if Mr.. Keitt can, beat him in
that line, why we will put Mr.. Garnett
Of Virginia in his place. If Garnett is
l'kelyto be damaged, we should then
take Mr.. Barksdale Of Mississippi. AT
any rate, we assure &c South Side" Mr.
Wise shall be kept out Of harms way.

Mr.. EDIroR A word IN reply to

certainly did not mean TO misrepresent
your position, much less TO deal in per-
sonalities. | thought, and still think,
that the course indicated in the first
number, was calculated to do harm,
and could by no possibility do good. A
kind and gentle rap over the knuckles
was all intended We cannot, MIR.
Editor, shut our eyes to the fact that
we are approaching chapter in our
history that may tell upon the destinies
of the world. when you and l are done
with it. Under other circumstances,
few words might be said on that subject,
but being restricted to short articles,
and those confined TO Gov. Wise, / pro-
ceed to the task. 1t is our intention,
Mr.. Editor, to, | speak as one of the
party.) to beat you SO bad in the next
Presidential election, that you will have
TO retreat behind another alias before
you can rally again. Our greatest DIFF
ficulty is in selecting standard bearer;
to get the man that can do i, most ef-
fectually. My individual opinion is,
that Gov. Wise is the man but there
are difficulties in his way. 1t is an a6-
mitted fact that Gov. Wise is not a
favorite among polticians,-I mean
politicians by profession, ,-tacticians
men who manage caucuses, and conven-
tions men who have an eve to place,
(and all parties have such men Among
such. Wise has bat little strength. This
may, perhaps, be accounted for on the
ground of his innate honesty, his force
Of character, his fixed adherence 10
principle, his habits of industry, his
powers of physical endurance, that ca
pacitates him for almostsany amount OF
labor, and oversight; so that if he was
in the presidential chair, he would be
he President, with no "power behind
the throne greater than the throne it.
self" !" and none but those of cle..n
hands, could expect executive power.
Mr.. Editor, these are the qualities
that give him that commanding influence
among The people, wherever he is per-
sonally known, and to know him is to
love and admire him. He is emphati-
cally-(no peoples man, but a
man Of the people, ard for and with the
people. They love him for his honesty,
for the purity of his private life ; for his
amiability and genuine, unaffected
kindness of heart. They admire him
for the towering intellect, that raises
him head and shoulders above his peers;
for that undaunted courage that knows
no fear for the heroic patriotism, that
would induce any sacrifice for his coun-
try. Ah, Mr.. Editor, | would TO God
that the people, all the people, erery
where, knew Henry A. Wise we wo'd
have no need Of a convention to select
a candidate, he would be carried by
acclimation to the Presidency, and when
there, he would drive out the buyers
and sellers from the temple of our liber-
ty and like the flaming sword that
was placed in the Garden of Eden to
guard the Tree Of Life, he would stand
on the ramparts Of the Constitution, and
forbid its touch by the sacriligious hands
of Black Republicans or Free aters.

MISS GILgEKT's C~ARERR-By ]. G. Hol-
land. author of the "Iitcolnb Letters,
Bitter Sweet" Gold Foil" &c.
The popularity which the former prOduc-
tons Of DR. Holland have obtained, will
not be in the smallest degree lessened BY
this hiE youngest born. The secret of this
popularity can easily be told in his "
words. In the early part of Miss Gil
bert's career" she essays to write books,
and her first production, Tristan Trevan-
ion" is criticized-the critic tells the wri-
ter that 'she must not hope to win the ear
and heart of the world, until by genuine
contact and sympathy with the world, she
had learned its wants, experienced in her
self It's hopes and disappointments, its fears
and aspirations, and could speak from a
herrt rendered tendcrly humane to the heart
Of humanity" Because DR.. Holland has,
himself, "by genuine contact with the world,
lcarEed its wants." lac can SO write as to
supply those wants. No man can teach
others that which be does not know, him
self, and it is not by theory alone that the
real inner life of men can be SO learned. as
to ELL the soul to OVERLOOKING. and enable
1t, from its abundance, to pour out to sup
ply the needs Of others. The soul must
live and suffer for itself, before it can guage
the joys and sOrrows Of the souls of others.
That DR.. Holland has done this, the rsccp-
tion which his writings have met. are in
dubitable evidence.
Miss Gilbcrt's Career" is a story Of
New England life. with a slight intermin-
Cling of experiences in that great commercial
heart of America, New York city. The
characters are all well dram. but the two
which seem to US the most perfect of their
kind, are those of DR.. Gilbert, the father
Of the heroine, and Mr.. Thomas Lampson,
o'ssas Check. Dr.. Gilbert is of a type sell
dom found outside of New England, the
great man of a small town, a thoroughly
educated physician of large practice, a far
mcr, yet with plenty of spare energy to de-
vote to the care of public affairs and ruling
his own household, selfwillcd, obstinate,
idOlizing lis children, Especially his son.
charitable, proud and devout.
But We will not detract from the interest
Of any of the future readers of the book, by
attempting a description Of more of the cha
r%acters, or a synopsis of the story. Suffice
it to say that if it has as much of a charm
for others. as it had for US, whoever takes
it mp will be 10th to lay it down until its
pcrusal is finished.
