have no doubt his contributions will

enough to attract attention.

CORRECT SPEAKING.

We advise all young people to &C:
quire in early life the habit of good
language, both in speaking and writing
and to abandon; as early as possible,
all use of slang words and phrases
The longer they live, the more diff
cult the acquisition of such language
will be; and if the golden age of Youth,
the proper season for the acquisition of
language, be passed in its abuse, the
unfortunate victim of neglected educa-
ton is very probably doomed to talk
slang for life. Money is not necessary
to procure this education: Every man
has it in his power. He has merely
to use the language which he reads,
instead of slang which he hears, to
form his taste from the best speakers
and poets Of the country, to treasure
up choice phrases in his memory, and
to habituatc himself to their use
svoiding ut the same time, that pedan-
tic precision which shows rather the
weakness Of vain ambition than tho
polish Of an educated mind.-Honae

DESPOT'S REASONS.

Ihe follow Is an extract from Judge
Douglas speech at Cleveland.
But these Republicans tell you that
slavery is wrong, that it is great
crime, even more ruinous to the white.
man than the negro, and that it should
be put down, everywhere, and at all
hazards. My answer to that propo-
sition is simply this, that in every
free country the people must be per-
mittcd to determine for themselves
what institutions are right and what
are wrong. The right to decide
whether : law is wise or unwise,
whether an institution is Just or un-
just is q fundamental principle of self:
government the world over. The
tyrants and enemies Of free govern
mcnt always resort to this same argu.
ment that you must not allow the peo.
pie to decide for themselves for fear
that they will make bad laws-Qaugh-
ter and applause.) Ask the Emperor
of Austria why he docs not allow his
German subjects to have voice in
making the laws under which they
live and he will tell you that
he would be glad to do SO but for
the fact that the people will ruin them.
selves by bad laws if he only gave
them the chance. daughter and ap-
plause.) Go down into Naples, and
if you can find him, inquire of that fa-
|gitive Bourbon why he did not per.
init his people to have a voice in the
making of their laws and he will give
YOU the same answer. Then pass over
into old England, the country that
boasts of it's freedom, aud inquire of
its aristocracy why they deprived Ire
land Of her separate parliament and
deprived her Of the right of selfgov.
ernment at home, and the answer will
be that the Irish would have ruined
themselves by bad laws if they had
the chance given them. From there
come to America and inquire Of Mr..
Seward and Mr.. Lincoln, and Father
Giddins, and other leaders of the Re.
publican party, why they do not allow
the people of the American Territories
to decide the slavery question for them
selves, and they will tell you that they
would surely ruin themselves by adopt
ing slavery. { Applause and laughter
1t is plain that whenever you interfere
with the great right Of every people
to decide for themselves what laws
and institutions are best apapted t.
their happiness, you strike down th'
fundamental principle of self govern
ment ITSELF t'True.'
