A BEAUTIFUL PIcTURE.-The man who
stands upon his own soil, who feels, by the
laws OF the land in which be lives-by the
laws Of civilized nations-he is the right
ful and exclusive owner of the land which
he tills, is, by the constitution Of our ma
ture, under o wholesome influence, not
easily imbibed from any other source. He
feels, other things being equal, more strong
ly than another, the character Of man as
the lord Of an inanimate world-of this
great and wonderful sphere, which, fash
ioned by the hand Of God, and upheld by
his power, is rolling through the heavens a
part Of his--hs from the centre to the sky.
1t is the space on which tho generation
moves in its round Of duties, and he feels
himself connected by visible link with
those who follow him, and to whom he is
to transmit home. Perhaps his farm has
come down to him from his fathers; but he
can trace their footsteps over the scenes Of
his daily labors. The roof which shelters
him was reared by those to whom he owes
his being. Some interesting domestic ira.
dition is connected with every inclosure.
The favorite tree was planted by his faith
er's hand. He sported in boyhood beside
the brook which still winds through the
meadows. Through the field lies the path
to the village school Of early days. He
still hears from his window the voice Of the
Sabbath bell which called his fathers to the
house Of God; and near at hand is the spot
where his parents are laid down to rest,
and where, when his time has come, he
shall be laid by his children. These are
the feelings Of the owners Of the soil.-
Words cannot buy them; they flow out ol
the deepest fountains Of the heart-they
are life-springs Of a fresh, healthy and gen
erous national character.

In New England, where the people are all
yirtuous, and where the chief obstacle to
their happiness is their concern Of mind for
the salvation of the Hottentots and the New
Zealanders, and other remote heather, who
are in danger of dying without any knowl-
edge of the fate to which they were predes-
tined before the foundation of the world, and
where philanthropy, as is usual, is set like
Minnie rides, for a long range, and is apt to
overshoot near objects--in that happy land
when person, black or white, comes into a
village, whose apparel and general appear
ance indicate that he is not possessed of
clear income, nor of visible means of support,
and may stand in need of assistance from his
fellow men, the first process is to ''warn him
out of town." as it is called, to prevent his
acquiring any claim on it for relief"
This is doubtless wise and necessary pro-
vision TO prevent the shifting Of these re-
Bponsibilities and burdens from one town to
another. When, however, colored person
comes to town under comfortable circum-
stances and ahundantly provided for, the
whole population turn out to force their hos
pitality upon him. A case recently occurred
at New Bedford. The Captain of whaler
arrived from the Sandwich Islands with q
negro girl, a native Of the islands, of whom
he had been made legal guardian by her
mother, and put up at hotel until he could
proceed TO his home. AS this was not case
that required warning out Of town, and was
not likely TO need pecuniary assistance
portion of the population conceived
that there was an urgent demand fol
their philanthropy. A crowd of blAcl
spirits and white, male and female
gathered around the Captain and his siste
as they we're going 10 the depot, pounce'
upon the girl and spirited her away, prob
ably to canadA-it being necessary in thes
cases that the philanthropy should be shifte'
of ones hands as quickly as possible,as ther
would be few rescues If pecuniary charge
were to follow. The Sandwich Island gin
perhaps has not the highest opinion of liberty

Tho II ecent Decision ON the Slave-Trade.
The act of Congress of 1920, making the
slave-trsde piracy, provides in section four
that
"1f any citizen Of the United States, being
Of the crew or ships company of any foreign
ship or vessel engaged in the slave-trade, or
any person whatever being of the crew or
ships company of any ship or vessel owned
in whole or part, or navigated for or in behalf
of any citizen or citizens of the United States,
shall land from any such ship or vessel, and,
on any foreign shore, seize any negro or mu-
latto, not held to service or labor by the laws
of either of the States or Territories of the
United States, with intent to make such
negro or mulatto slave or shall decoy or
forcibly bring or carry, or receive, such negro
or mulatto on board any such ship or vessel,
with intent as aforesaid, such citizen or per-
son shall be adjudged pirate; and on con-
viction thereof, before the Circuit Court OF
the United States for the district wherein he
may be brought or found shall suffer death"
Section Eve provides the same penalty
against those who confne or detain negroes
or mulattoes on board ship with view to
making them slaves, or who "shall offer or
attempt to sell as a slave" any such negro or
mulatto or "who shall, on the high seas, or
any where on tide-water, transfer or deliver
over such negro to any other vessel; or who
shall deliver on shore" any negro to be sold
as q slave.
Whatever the consequences, it can hardly
he denied that the recent decision of Judge
McGrath, of the United States Circuit Court
in Georgia that it is the seizing of free men
with the intention of making them slaves,
and not the commerce in slaves, that the law
makes piracy, is according to the law. The
fourth section expresses this explicitly
the intent to make the negro slave
or the act of making them slaves con
stituting the crime of piracy. The fiftl
section refers to the fourth, and imposes the
same penalty on those who shall sell or LAND
amy such negroes. Amy other construction
would make piracy of the domestic slave
trade whenever it reached the high seas
consummation which would threaten th
Union itself.

The editorial correspondent of the Con'nsr-
cidl, who is now at Charleston reporting
some most interesting bar-room converse
tions for that paper, without which the his
tory of the nineteenth century would be
incomplete says "Messrs. Faran & Mclean
will be here and both want reporters seats,
and neither of them is competent to make q
report" '..
Having done Charlestown, Virginia, in a
most distinguished manner, the editor-re-
porter feels as IL he had areportorialpre-emp-
tion to all the Charlestons, and talks in Sir
Oracle way as il when he took his pencil in

preston from the Commercial, that -four
cylinder press made whole newspaper corps
competent To shake the public faith in this
idea would be suicidal on the part of the
Commercial.

necessary credentials for admission as a dele

to hide his light under reporters bench

II is stated in the Philadelphia Inquirer,
that Tin direct violation of one of the rules Of
the two Houses of Congress, which provides
that no spirituous liquors shall be offered for
sale or exhibition within the Capitol there is
a regular bar in full view of the Senator's in
which are ranged all the popular beverages
all that madden and make men fools"
A great deal of the wickedness of an act
consists in the way it is reported. Accents
of virtuous indignation in the relator almost
always awaken feelings Of ditto in the aud
itor. Now this style or remark, as applied to
members of Congress, we can notbutlook upon
as in bad taste, and we copy it to express, in
its connection the opinion that the like Of
il ought never to appear in any respectable
public journal. Drunkenness, as all we'll
bred people will admit, is vice in the lower
orders; but II is also vice Of the lower
orders. Members of Congress get drunk
become mad or foolish? Not they. The bar
of which the Inquirer does so complain is
probably nothing more than a simple contri-
vance to save gentlemen the trouble Of car
rying their bottles in their hats, or their
pockets-an uncomfortable practice which its
absence threatened to introduce.
II was the custom Of our ancestors-we
pay an affecting tribute to our own virtues
when we call them "barbarous'-to deliber-
ate upon important questions first Wet and
afterward dry. If the conclusions of the two
states concurred, the matter was considered
fixed. We, their descendants, have always
exhibited a disposition to initiate the an
cestral practice; and it is supposed by some
that, besides a pretty extensive individual
practice, we owe to it the form Of upper and
lower Houses, into which our law-making
bodies are now distributed-the former cor
responding to the higher, and the latter to
the more depressed spiritual condition of the
primitive Parliament.

THE newspaper-corresponde agony over
the Charleston Convention might persuade
the public that the final disruption of things
was at hand, if they were not accustomed to
newspaper sensations, by seeing the same ex-
hausted on caravans, cattle shows, and even
on the moving of a four-cylinder press. The
South, we are told, is going to bolt from the
Convention unless it can have the platform
fixed to suit it. OF course it is; but when
was there any difficulty in fixing platform
to suit every body? The Cincinnati Platform
is regarded as the model of platform litera-
ture. Every body will be suited with that.
If not, certainly inventive genius is not ex-
hausted, and Il slippery plank or two can be
added.
Douglas is not going to accept a nomina-
ton on any platform that don't suit him!
The world expects that Douglas will take
high stand on principle, especially as he de-
clares that the Cincinnati Platform just suits
him; and in the recent Senatorial caucus he
told JEFF. Davis that he would cheerfully vote
for him if nominated. Undoubtedly a man
who is willing to support JEFF. Davis as the
candidate, will be very strenuous that the
platform shall clearly recognize popular SOW
ereignty, subject to the Supreme Court
The Northern Democracy will not stand
any platform declaring for protecting slavery
in the Territories The Northern Democracy
will stand no compromise of principle-un-
less they can have the candidate; in that case
the South can have the platform-an equita-
BILE division; and out of the special virtues
Of the two sections forming great national
party
| 1t is highly important that the South
should have Congressional protection incor.
porated in the platform. That will carry
slaves every where, whether the owner goeI

Puruu,t Of n Shaver and the Terrible Re-
suIt--Five Hundred Human BeinGn De-
stroyed ON the Breakers.
An American vessel, Of Baltimore build,
was chased some weeks since, OF the coast of
Africa, by British vessel and Portuguese
steamer. The master of the SLAYER, seeing
no chance for escape, headed her for the
rocks. A letter says
Just before sundown the Portuguese gave
him the contents of several thirty-two pound
ers, which brought his foretopmast down,
and, rs il was blowing almost gale OF wind,
his ibboom followed directly after. How
ever, the fellow stopped for nothing, and,
lust as niQht set in, drove her high on the
rocks off Cape Lopez, the Portuguese steamer
by that time being in close range, but the
Gloucester was far behind. Those on board
the other steamer, however, describe the
scene as truly heartrending
AS the brig struck, and was overwhelmed
by the breakers, the poor miserable creatures
on board, probably to the number Of five
hundred, set up howl of despair that could
be heard even above the roaring of the hum
CRY sea. But it was too dark, by that time,
to see much, and beyond human skill or
power to aid the drowning wretches, so that
| they soon must have met their doom; for on
the next morning the beach inside of the
rocks was strewn with corpses and the frag-
ments of the wreck. Nothing was found,
however to reveal the name of the SLAYER, oil
any other information concerning him, save
that to the practiced seaman she proved o.
Baltimore build. The monsters who manned
the vessel are supposed to have escaped in
their boats before she struck, and must havS
gained the shore, as boat somewhat stove
was discovered on the beach, with the oars
near by. A good prize was thus lost and
what is worse, probably Eve hundred human
beings were launched into eternity.
