ltical ties which bind us together if we pursue
a course Of conduct that will ALLEVIATE and
estrange US? Sectional strife originating
out of this slavery question, has not only
disturbed family relations, political parties
and legislative bodies, but it has entered the
house of God, and separated brethren of the
same church at the communion table. 1t
has divided that good old Church in which
| was born into the Church South ard the
Church North. Gan you expect then when
men become so excited and irritated against
one another that they cannot sit at the same
communion table and partake of the bread
and wine, that they can long hold together
in the same political family? [ beseech
you then, my countrymen, to abstain from
an agitation that must inevitably lead to
disruption of this glorious Union. I repeat
there is but one remedy, but one escape, and
that is, non-interierence by Congress with
the question of slavery in the territories.
You must Danish it from the halls of Con
gress forever, refer it to the people of the
territories, to do as they please, subject only
to the Constitution, and leave the courts to
find ont whether the territorial laws are
constitutional or not, the same as they do in
the States OF the Union. / hold that under
the Constitution of the United States the
people of territory have just as full and
complete power over the question of slavery
as those of the States. There is no hope Of
peace in the country until we carry out that
principle in good faith.

This terriDly suggestive expression
VS. used the other dry BY one Of III
prisoners oow under sentence of des1h
il our cousty jail The oeeasion Of its
utterance was - follows:
A party went to visit the prisoners in
Jail, one of the condemned recognized
one Of the visitors rs former resident
of the same town in Ohio. His wild
owed mother lives there still, and some
Of his sisters. The visitor asked him if
his mother knows of his situation. He
replied that she does and that he had
received . letter from her but . few
days previously. Immediately upon
this allusion to his mother, his mind
seemed to wander back to the scenes OF
bis youth, and the home Of bis early at
fections, and his face gave evidence OF
an intense and indiscribable anguish OF
heart, SO painful and terrible that ne was
pitiable to look upon. He burst into
tears and addressing the visitor in ques-
ton, who was lady, he exclaimed,
ooh, Mrs. -, little did ! think
when l saw you in Ohio that l would
ever come to such a condition as this.
Little did / think l would ever come to
such dishonorable death l am doomed
to die, and break the heart Of my poor
old mother, and disgrace all my rela-
tons. Oh, my God. my heart will
burst. l never killed Wood, but l was
drunk and l was present at his murder.
Had | not been drunk l would never
been there. 1t is whisky that has ruined
me. Whisky led me to bad company,
and it is whisky that has brought me to
the gallows. The temptations OF the
whisky shops first led me astray. Yes,
Mrs. the whisky shop has been
to me the road to Hell, and now, If l
was able, would have printed over the
door Of every whisky shop in Dubuque
aud every where else, in big letters that
every body could see, these words Of
truth, "THIs Is THE ROAD TO HELL"
Here the poor fellows mead sank upon
his hands, and his agony seemed terrible.

what he said, and all who saw him pit.

dying man, his forcibIe and agonlzed re-
marks made a deep impression on all

AN UNYoRrUNATE SPECULATION
1t has been recently stated that an ingot
of gold, forwarded from Paris to San
Francisco, and sold for $2,075, proved
to be nothing less than gilded mass Of
lead. The swindle was perpetrated
through the agency of Wells, Fargo &
Co.'s Express, who, when the leaden
ingot was returned to their Office in San
Francisco, set to work to discover the
swindler. He was found to be fancy
goods dealer named A. KohIer, and he
was let off upon the payment of the
amount Of the ingot, S2,O75, and $4,000
for expenses incurred. But the matter
did not end here, although the govern
ment officers concluded not to prosecute
him, on sccount Of defect in the law.
When Kohler's rascality became known
his bankers immediately paid him his
balance. and declined to have any fur
ther transactions with him. The insur-
ance compan es also cancelled their pol
icies upon his property, and the man
stands before the community convict

The Bible Burning in BOgOta.

MRs JONho a COh4 bN
BoGorA, March 20, 1860.
MEssRs. EDIroRs Permit me,
through the medium of your paper, to
correct story that has gone abroad and
has been copied into several papers from
the Star and Herald, Of Panama, to
the effect that General Jones, minister
from the United States to this country
was present at, and countenanccd the
burning of the Bibles in front of the
Archbishop's palace in this city, on the
7,h of December last.
General Jones was not present at, nor
even knew Of the burning of the BIZ
bles, until day or two after it occurred.
And instead OF countenancing such an
act, he denounced it as an outrage, and
as barbarous, to myself and others, and
even to the highest ecclesiastical author
ity Of his own Church in this country
the Pope's Internuncio. AS this city
was illuminated on the evening Of the
eth of December, in honor of the I'm
macuate Conception Of the Virgin
Mary, he, in company with number Of
ladies' and gentlemen, walked around to
see the different Examinations, and on
coming to the corner of street, they
heard band of music playing in the
balcony of the Archbishop's house,
which was illuminated with large NUN
Der of lsmps, so arranged as to form an
immense mitre; the General and his
friends naturally pressed forward to hear
and see, but were unable to come within
a half squares distance, on account Of
the crowd. He did not even know of
the Bible-burning until afterwards. To
those who are acquainted with General
Jones and know his large hearted liber-
ality in opinions and in purse. this er-
PLANTATION 10 unnecessary but as he may
be prejudiced by this slanderous report,
in the eyes of some who have not that
pleasure, l feel it my duty to vindicate
him from the charge. So far from being
illiberal or courtenancing illiberality Of
religious opinions. he has attended
Protestant preaching here much more
often than many who call themselves
Protestants, and has subscribed literally
for the erection of a Protestant church
in Bogota and more than that, when he
visits my house, he unites with us in
family prayers for the loved ones at
home.
Very respectfully yours,
SAMUEL M. SHARPE,
Missionary Of the Presb. Oh.
