she ,rcucI,er's Institute.

1t will be seen by reference to the notices, that
the Holmes county Teachers Institute will hold
their next session at Nashville OF late years
these Institutes have sgnally failed in accomplish
ing the end for which they were organized. Their
sessions are dry and inspid, and, we are sorry to
say the Holmes county Institute may, with re.
gard to this be ranked with the rest. Now why is
Ibis Is il because these Institutes are not benc
fetal to the cause of education, or is it because
proper degree Of interest is not manifested by the
Teachers Evidently the fault lies with the
Teachers. There is no one who can deny the
good which does, and will result from conven
ton Of this kind properly held and properly attend
ed; but conventions held as have been done of the
sessions Of the Institute, attended by only dozer
Or 30 of the more energetic and TO speak the
tuth) successful Teachers must and will fail il
any attempt to benefit the mass of Teachers who
are never to attend or take part in any of thu
proceedings of the organization. Itis to he HOPED
that such state of affairs will not long exist
that the next session will be well attended by
those whose duty it is to attend.
| Teachers and friends of education YOU arc in
vited, one and all, to be there and give us YOU
views on the educational questions of the day.

writes on February 18th;

prudence, and may now act upon the fact
before me. Unless the federal govern
ruent promptly adopts measures, the cir
cumstances will impel Texas to adopt a
course she desires to avoid. Texas can
not be invaded with impunity, and if
thrown on her own resources, she may
not only resist it, but adopt means to
prevent recurrence of the outrage, DC,

The BATES Movement.

The movement of the black republican
party in fovor of Edward Bates ofMissouri
for the Presidency, led by the New York
Ir16"ne, shows how much more essential
the men engaged in the movement deem
mere success, with no matter who as
candidate, than the triumph of principle
which they have heretofore held up as car
dinal. In other words it shows how
much greater Importance they attach to
the possession of the spoils of power than
to the establishment of anti-slavery doc
trinos. n principle of the black republi-
can party, embraced in the Philadelphia
platform, and held to be cardinal, is "No
more slave States" From the St. Louis
Democrat, which urges the nomination Of
Mr.. Bates at Chicago, we learn as follows:
"But Mr.. Bates rejects the motto, No
more slave States He argues that nei-
ther public policy, precedent. nor the Con-
stitution authorizes Congress or the Ex-
ecutive to discriminate between free and
slave States, in their application for ad-
mission into the Union; and in this we
fully concur with him. The policy which
received the sanction of the founders of
the Republic, and which was carried out
by Jefferson himself, needs no defence,
and may dispense with eulogy."
1t is thus seen how completelely the
New York Tribune stultifes itself in tho
advocacy of Mr.. Bates nominrtion, it
having formerly cried of evey body who
would not put his hand and seal to tho
doctrine of No more Slave States, "Cruci-
fly him! Cruelty himl"
What the men of whom the Tribune is
the organ want. is power at any cost
They want it at the cost of an nati-slave-
ry war, if that will bring it; or of aban-
donment of cardinal antislavery doctrines
if that will bringi it.
Have such hypocrites and knaves ever
before been known in the history of poll
ties in any country or in any age?
The movement indicates one thing,
which is a glorious sign of the times; that
these men feel the necessity of succumbing
to the conservative sentiment of the coun-
try. 1t was at about the same time Sew
ard announced the "irrepressible conflict"
at Rochester that Bates wrote letter to
a committee in New York in which he
denounced the slavery agitation as "pos-
tilent" 1t is now not impossible that
the pestilent agitator may be set aside for
the gentleman who "rejects the motto OF
: "No more Slave States -
What a party is the black republican
to be sure.-DetroH Free Press.

GOV. Dennison Refuses 20 Sur
render owen Brown wttdiEruu
els Merriam.
1t seems th7t Owen Brown and Fran
els Merriam were indicted at Charlestown
Virginia, the grand jury having found
bills against them for treason, murder
and melting slaves to insurrection. Up
on the indictments thus found, Gov.
Letcher made his requisition on Gov.
Dennison for tho delivery of these men
into custody to be taken to the State of
Virginia for trial. The United States
Marshal for the Northern District of Ohio
was designated as the person to whom
| Brown and Merriam should be delivered.
The Marshal presented the papers in due
form to the Governor on Monday last,
and the latter on Thursday last, notified
the Marshal that he had decided not to is
sue the warrants for either, for reasons
which he had communicated to Gov.
Letcher. The parties were in this State
when the Marshal delivered the requisi-
tion of Gov. Letcher to Gov, Dennison,
and could at once have been captured and
removed to Virginia. They will ofcourse
have fled the State upon knowledge of
what was going on, which was no doubt
promptly communicated to them. The
Constitution of the United States is i'm
perative in case of this kind, and re-
! quires that the parties shall "Je delivered
up to be renaOped to tie State having juriS-
diction of the crime" We stood by
on the 9th January last and saw Gov.
Dennison take solemn oath to support
the Constitution of the United States, an
yet he disobeys in this case one of its
plainest, simplest and most positive COM
mands. Wherefore does he do this
thing? His reasons we have not access
to but we are quite sure they will be
found to have no weight at all, and that
!, the whole thing is only designed to ap-
pease the higher law Aboltionists and
procrastinate, and thus permit Brown
and Merriam to escape Brown is the
| son Of Old John, the Hsrper's Ferry
, "Martyr." Gov. Dennison has taken a
fearful step and committed reasonable
act, which cannot and will not be sus-
tained by the people of Ohio. In refus-
+ ing to do his sworn duty in this case, he
, is merely acting as the instrument of such
! men as Chase, Giddings and the Oberlin
School of politicians generally, who hate
this Union and would be glad to see it
broken asuuder. We hope the General
Assembly will call for the papers and
correspondence, so that the people of Ohio
may know upon what pretext their Execu-
tive refuses to discharge his sworn duties
, in case of this kind Statesman.

MANY DEMOCRATS.

Thc Skies ksrigbteta.

A few months ago the great National
Democratic party was apparently falling
to pieces under the weight of Intestine
feuds. TO careless observers their coun-
ellis were seemingly so distracted that Il
thorough reunion was impossible, and
many predicted that the old party that
was co-existent with our government, and
that had bravely fought and triumphant
ly conquered all its enemies from the tories
of the Revolution to the enemies OF Con
stitutonal Liberty that bear the black
flag of Aboitionism, was about to go to
wreck. But, as the great Presidential
contest approaches tho apples of discord
are being thrown away, the clouds that
oyorshadowed us arc being dispellod and
the soldiers of the great Democratic army
are dressing their lines to fight for the
principles that they and their fathers have
ever so bravcly maintained.
The Democratic party stands upon,
contends for and upholds great cardinal
principles. On some great questions there
arc necessarily different constructions,
and matters of little moment to DO settled.
1t is the settlement Of these minor mat
ters that excite Democrats to contention
among themselves. The dressing up of
great questions sometimes causes the OK
citement to run high, but when those qucs-
tions are attacked by the opposition it is
then that the less important matters are
dropped and Democrats war tho enemy
instead of each other.
Democrats in talking about a candi-
date for an important office never ask
whether an enemy or n friend of Demo
cratic principles will be the stronger can
didate-thcy never get into the important
and unonyiablo position that the Repub-
licans are now in Of discussing whether a
representative OF their principles, or II
nondescript will be the most likely to be
coctcd--thcy never sacrahsc their princi-
pies for the spoils Of office as rnony Re-
publicans are now talking of domg-they
resort to no such boggarly, childish policy
MS this, but they must know that ho is a
Democrat from principle, and ready and
willing to defend and carry out tho great
principles of the party.
1t is this tcnacity to principles that
cause Democrats to quarrel among them
selves; and is this that unites them wher
tho war wages hottest and their principles
arc endangered We are glad that tn,
family quOn-'s of the party are abou
over for time. The Democracy Of tn

Child's Play.

Some time ago tho Black Gcpublicon
Legislature passed joint resolution to
adjourn sine die on the 18th of March
This was highly approved Of by the pco-
pie, but tho Legislators become dissatis-
led with their own work and reconsider
ed the vote by which that resolution was
passed, and recinded the resolution. They
then spent several days in tho llousc in
discussion over an adjourned session and
finally passed resolution to adjourn on
the 26th of March to meet again on the
first Monday Of Jannary 1861, This was
agreed to in the Senate, and if they don't
change again the Legislature will adjourn
on the 26th of March, to meet on the first
Monday Of January 1861.

fix specific duties on iron at the following
rates: "Pig iron 81 per ton, railroad iron
$l2 per ton, common bar iron $l5 per
ton, fine bar iron one cent per h., boiler
iron cents per H., Russian sheet ! cts
per h." lheSc-aro the principal descrip-
tons, though scrap and other minor kinds

The Democracy

Never before in the history of the par
ty has such warm and enthusiastic ap-
proval of the proceedings of any conven
ton, been manifested as the action of the
Reading convention has received all over
the State. The nomination of Henry ID.
Foster is everywhere hailed with cordial
and enthusiastic approval. The burial of
of past differences and the restoration of
unity and harmony among tho Democra'
cy of Pennsylvania has disheartened tho
opposition, while in our own ranks we
have the most gratifying evidence of en-
ergy aroused and zeal renewed, for the
success of the party. The press and the
people are alike enthusiastic, and from
the Democracy of other States, that of
Pennsylvania is receiving the most cheer
full congr 4tulstions and approval. These
signs of the times are of the highest i'm
portance as omens of success, The Dem
ocracy of Pennsylvania are resolved to
win the victory, and they will win it.
