OF all this vast value, we presume there was not
an ounce of raw material which could not have been
furnished for this country, and not days labor
which our own skillful mechanics might not have
performed. Does it not seem incredible that more
than Sl0O0,OO0 should have been paid for bar ron

and half for railroad iron when the crude ore

most encouraging accounts. Bell and Everett are
gaining ground every day. All the Old Line Wings

Democrats have declared their intention to vote for
them in November rnext We are confident that our
vote in Madison county will be increased three or

BY EDNA CORA.

BY EDNA CORA.
Where is the grand old forest now
The red mans hunting ground,
Where warriors came with eagle eye,
And many a war-whoop sound.
Long time has pass'd d away since then,
The story's olden now
The white man came, and drove away
The Chiefs with dusky brow.
The noble deer that bounded free
Deep in the forest shade;
They lov'd their homes, but frightend d fed,
From valley, hill, and glade.
They've swept our giant trees away,
To plant their cities there
The Great Spirit placed them here for us,
And gave them to our care.
They drove our mighty Chief s away,
In strange land to roam;
And tore US from our hunting ground,
And kept it for their home.
The red man now is seen no more,
Within his native vale;
Upon the stream his bark canoo
No more in calmness sail.
For there the white mans boat is seen,
Madly rushing DER our streams;
Frightning the wild beasts from the shore,
And breaking long sweet dreams
Oh now our tribes are scatter'd far,
Like autumn flowers around;
Some seek another home away
Others in the dark cold mound.
And as they calmly lie at rest,
The pale-face can not come
To take the hatchet from their side,
Or drive them from their home.

Mr.. Everett on Slavery.

The supporters ofDouglas, the Sqasatter Sovereign
~ Champion, and Of Breckinridge, the kentucky
Emdncipationst, find great fault with Edward Ever
etts position on the slavery question. Mr.. Taylor,
of Alabama one of the Electors for the State at
large, recently addressed letter to Mr. Everett
and the following reply by the Massachusetts, State
Central Committee covers the whole ground of this
Southern objection and proves him to be more
conservate, sound, and national man than either
Douglas or Breckenridge. Mr. Everett is neither a
Free-Soiler nor an Abolitionist. He is national,
conservative, Union man, from whom the South has
nothing to fear, ani to support whom would do her
honor, as it would all sections of the country We
hope this letter may be extensively read Rick
