lit was that the Pacific Railroad had not
been made, you were told that there was
no time, because the slavery question alb
sorbed the entire session of Congress.
When ycu ask your representatives why
it is that the mail system has not been
reformed and carried on with vigor
throughout the country, You are told that
the bill was lost for want Of time. Laugh
ter. When you ask why it is that you
have no overland mail route to the Pacific,
and no steam lines, you are told that the
slavery question occupied the whole ses-
sion and the bills were lost for want of
time. Renewed laughter Then you
find that all the great measures which
effect the commonwealth interests, the
shipping interests, the manufacturing in
terests, the industrial interests of the coun-
try, have been lost for want of time.
Laughter and applause, and cries of
"Good."] My fellow citizens. there never
will be time to perform the duties for which
the government was made unless you ban
ish forever the slavery question from the
halls of Congress, and remand it to the
people of each State and Territory, ac-
|cording to the platform of the Democrat
ic party. Prolonged and vociferous cheer
Ing. ] This great principle of non-inter:
ference by the Federal Government and
popular sovereignty in the States and
Territories is not peculiar to the Demo
cratic party. 1t was affirmed in the Com.
promise Measures of 1850; it was affirmei
in the Wing platform in 1852, as well as
in that of the Democrats; it was affirmed
by all national men in those days, and
should be sustained by all national, coz
servative, Union loving men in the present
day. Loud applause.
My fellow citizens, 1 return to you my
profound acknowledgement for the kind
ness which has assembled you together,
and for the respectful attention with which
this vast assemblage has listened to my
desultory remarks--Tloud cries of ".go on,
go on. "--and again renewing to you my
thanks, beg to take my leave of you
bidding you good night. Loud long
continued cheering.

Lyman Beecher's courtsh,p.

An eminent divine who is as we'll known
as he is universally respected, many years
since was led to the conclusion that it is
not well for men to be alone.' After con-
siderable pondering, he resolved to offer
himself in marriage 70 certain member
of his flock. No sooner had the plan
formed than it was put into practice, and
getting out his cane, he speedily reached
the dwelling of his mistress. o saes
1t chanced to be on Monday morning
5a day which many New England readers
need not be told is better known as wash
ing day. .g
Unconscious of the honor that was in
tended her, the lady was standing bebind
the tub in the back kitchen, with her arm!
immersed in the suds, busily engaged il
an occupation which, to say the least o
it, is more useful than romantic. Ther'
was loud knock at the door. as
Jane, 60 to the door; and if it is an.
body to see me, tell them I am engaged
and cannot see them.'
The message was faithfully rehearsed
Tell your mistress that it is very i'm
portant that should see her.
Tell him to call this afternoon sait
the lady, and will see him.
But it was unavailing. .b 3
i must see her now, 'ssai1 the minister
tell me where she is.'
So saying, he followed the servant int
the kitchen, to the great surprise of he
mistress
Mis-, I have come to the conclu
sion to marry; will you have me?' wa
the ministers opening speech.

This is singular time to offer yourself
Such an important step should be made

Wanted to be Married in Church.

which afforded some amusement to the
spectators at the time, and furnished food
for considerable gossip thereafter. II
occurred in church, on one Of those quiet
afternoons when all the world seems to
drop to sleep. When the flies buzz lazi-
ly on the window panes, and the dog lies
on the door stone.
The afternoon service had ended, aud
the congregation were arranging them
selves for the benediction, when to the
great astonishment and the manifest in
terest of the worshippers, the good par
son descended from the pulpit to the desk
below, and said, in calm clear voice:
"Those wishing to be united in The holy
bands of mstrimony, will now please to
come forward"
A deep stiffness Instantly fell over the
congregation, broken only by the rustling
of the silk, as some pretty girl or excited
matron changed her position to catch the
first view Of the couple to be married.
No one, however, arose, or seemed in the
least inclined to raise,
- Whereupoh the worthy clergyman,
deeming his first notice unheard or mis-
understood. repeated: |
"Let those wishing to be united in the
holy bonds Of matrlmony, now come for
ward"
Still no one stirred The silence be-
came almost audible, and painful sense
of awkwardness among those present, was
felt when young gentleman who occu-
pied vacant seat in the broad aisle dur
ing the service, slowly arose, and deliber.
ately walked to the altar He was good
looking and we'll dressed, but no one knew
him, and no female accompanied bis trav-
els. When he arrived within respect
full distance of the clergyman, he paused,
and with reverent bow, stepped to one
side of the aisle, but neither said anything
nor seemed at all disconnected at the idea
of being married alone. eS
The clergyman looked an xiously around
for the bride, who he supposed was yet to
arrive, and at length remarked to the
young gentleman, in an under tone.

DEBATE.

The 6rst debate betwee bJuhn Berry
on behalf of the Douglasites, and Cyru.
Sears, for the Republicans, came of ii
The Court House. on last Friday night, il
which, we believe it is admitted by all
Cyrus laid his opponent out. Johns ar.
gument contained nothing but the stale
worn out, clap-trap nonsense, about ne.
gro equality. aboli,ionism, amagama,on
&C., found in every eight by ten Douglas
news paper in the country. and which is
no more involved in the contest than are
The political sentiments of the man in tie
moon. He manifested want of ability
and a lack of honesty that even surprised
those wEo were not expecting much from
the young man.
Mr Sears speech was an able argu>
ment, free from this clap-trap style, and
abounding wi h facts and figure, ,e,incing
degree of research and labor that com
pletely non>plussed his opponent. He
proved clearly that Congress, when com.
posed of the very men who framed the
Constitution, had frequently le.;slated
upon the subj ct of slavery in the terri
tories; he showed most corclusivcly that
the popular sovereignty advocated ley
Stephan A. Dous las is an empty hum,
bug, and made many other strong points
to which we cannot alude now, all Of
which were sustained by the most ncon>
troveriable historical facts Mr.. Bcrrys
positions were not only all dishonest, but
he resorted to the most dishonest me ans
to sustain item. that of reading g,rbled
extracts from Lincoln S speeches, the Hell
per book. and other documents, by
which he gave them a false construction
and perverted their meaning tn;irely.-
On the other hand Mr.. Sears assumed
no position in which he was not fully sus-
tained by the facts of political history.
In word the result of this debate has
shown that Cyrus has decided advan-
tage over John. not only in blity. bu,
in industry, and this. together with the
fac; that he had the strong side of the
question, will account for the unmerciful
manner III which John was used up in the
discussion.
