|. And it came to pass. in the third year of
the reign of James the King, that certain
portion of his realm, came from the North
and the East and West, and made war with
the King and his hosts.
2, And behold on the 10th day of the 10th
month Of the third year of the reign of King
James, that the hosts of the enemy pitched
for their quarters near that great city called
Harper's Ferry; on account of being the
place where that great river the Potomac is
crossed.
3. Now the number of those who pitched
near this city was seventeen white men, be-
sides four or five negroes.
4. And all the hosts of King james we're
arrayed against the enemy, with his horses
and his chariots, and his valiant men of war /;
and great fear filled the whole South country
in SO much that the King and his Governors
and his Princes greatly feared that they
should be overthrow.
5. SO they killed heifer, and offered sac
rifce for the sins of the people; for they had
become a nation of oppressors, and their sins
had gone up to heaven against them.
g. And so it was, that the King and his
hosts conquered the II men and smote them
with the edge of the sword
7. And it came to pass the Captain Of the
seventeen men and those that escaped the
sword and the revolyers were cast into the
inner prison and their feet made fast in the
stocks, and double guard was placed around
and about the prison, lest the Abolitionists
should come from the North and steal away
the prisoners.
s. And a Governor reignod in the South
who was Wise and bowed himself 10 the
earth, before the King and said may it please
my Lord, the King, to let us slay those wick .
ed men and hang them high in the air for
their ofiense was treason. And he wished
that the people (his subjects) might SEQ them
hang and take warning thereby.
9. And when they were taken before the
Council behold wise men and lawyers came
from the North to speak before the Council
but they were rejected, and some were driven
out from among them, with many threats.
IL. And behold decree went forth through
all the South country that all those who were
from the North country should be driven out.

H. And 1t came to pass that the King
gathered together all his rulers and his wise
men, and his senators which were the law
makers lin the eleventh month Of the same

BorLING PorAroEs.-Let the potatoes lie
in cold water six OF eight hours before boiling
Twelve hours for very old ones is not too
long,. Then put them into boiling water a
little sailed, and the water should be kept at
a moderate boil till they are done, which
should be tested with a fork; then pour off
the water and let them stand in the pot till
dry. Great care should be taken not to let
them boil moment after they are done, as it
will render them watery. An excellent plan
to make old potatoes mealy, is to turn them
into a cloth and rapidly shake them about or
take them one at time in cloth and slight
ly press them. The larger potatoes should
be put into the pot before the smaller ones,
that they may equally be done. 1t requires
from forty to fifty minutes. New ones will
take about half that time.

NoN lNrERCoURsE. - Notwithstanding
trade and commerce are to cease between the
north and the south, it seems that there are
those in the south who are willing and anx-
ious to secure northern labor. A gentlemen
in this city recently received proposition
from southern shoe firm to remove to their
town and engage with them on large scale
in the manufacture Of boots and shoes, urging
him to take on the machinery and help carry
on the business, for which they would fur

" was of no account. - Worcester Spy

LETTER OF HON. EDWARD BATES.


The Hon. Edward Bates has addressed a
letter to the Missouri delegates to the Chica-
go Convention in reply to interrogatories pro-
pounded to him by them. The main points
Of it are as follows He has no new opinions
upon the subject Of the extension Of slavery,
and has formed none with reference to the
present array Of parties. lie is coeval with
the Missouri question Of 1920; he formed his
opinions then, and has not changed them
since At the time of the Revolution and
long after, slavery was regarded as an evil,
but temporary in its nature, and likely to dis
appear in the course of time. Yet while il
continued it was misfortune to the country
socially and politically Slavery is social
relation, domestic institution. 1t exists by
local law. The Federal Government has no
control over it in the States but the Terrific
RIGS are subject and subordinate to the Gov
ernment-they not being supreme like the
States. The nation is supreme over them
He is opposed to the extension Of slavery. and
in his opinion the policy and spirit Of the
Government ought to be against its extension.
The Constitution docs not carry slavery into
the Territories, nor anywhere. 1t only acts
upon it where it is established by local law.
The bred Scott decision only decides that
bred Scott was not citizen, and the opinions
of the Judges beyond this are extra judicial,
and of no authority. The questions discussed
by them were political and not within their
cognizance, and belong and could be disposed
of only by the political departments. The
discussion was most unfortunate, as it produc-
ed a dangerous conflict between the co-ordi-
nate branches of the Government. He favors
the colonization Of the free blacks in the
American tropics. the Homestead bill, the i'm
mediate admission Of Kansas, perfect equal
ity of rights among citizens and tho construo-
ton Of the Pacific Railroad, under the auspi-
ces of the Government. lie is gratfed that
his name has only been used in spirit of
harmony and peace, and to prevent division
and controversy among those who ought to
be united. He has neither sought nor held
any political Office for twenty-G five years, and
is satisfied with the honors already paid him
by the public.

AN lRRnrREssiBLE CoNFIcr AT THE
SouTH.-Ihe conflict between free and slave
labor begins to show itself at the south, in
those States where free labor prevails in one
section of State and slave labor in another
as in Vagina, North Carolina and Tennessee
In western Virginia there are 100000 whites
TO $4,000 slaves. while in eastern Virginia
there are 100000 whites to 450, 900 slaves.
This discrepancy is constantly increasing as
the slaves in western Virginia are diminishing
and its interests are assimilating to those Of a
free state The particular question now in
controversy between the East and West con-
Germs taxation, which is now unequal, slave
property being taxed at less than one-third
its value. Slaves under twelve years of age
ore not taxed at all, and on those over twelve
there is a uniform tax Of only 81 20 per head.
The tax on land is 40 cents to each 500 in
value The slaves under twelve are estimated
to be worth at least $500 per head, and those
above twelve at $500. The whole tax on
slaves is now S32S 900, while il they we're
taxed at their true value it would amount TO
VI, 100000. Western Virginia Justly com
plains OF this inequality. In 1851, when the
constitution of Virginia was revised. the west
endeayored to get just share in the control
Of the State by basing representation on the
white population, but did not succeed. In
