FUNNy-Of all the funny things which
are chargeable to the Republicans, the very
funniest Of all is their attempt to persuade
themselves that their policy accords with
that Of the immortal Jefferson. The grand
cardinal doctrine of their party is that it is the
duty Of Congress to prevent the extension Of
slavery in the United States. On the 9TH
er hand the great crowning act Of Jefferson's
administration, was the purchase Of Louisiana
and the annexation to the United States of
an extent of slave Territory greater than all
the Thirteen Colonies. What a shabby
modern Republican the Sage Of Monticello
would have made!

NUMBER 40.

Mr.. Harville-Those amendments are very
lengthy and important.
The Speaker-The amendments have been
adopted.
Mr.. Lovell-Under or inary circumstan-
ces, | wonld be willing to allow the bill to

Mr.. Harville-for the very reason the
gentleman has given think the bill should
be engrossed. At the end of the session we
are apt,to pass bills too hurredy. This is an
important bill to the county. want to see
it pass right.
The rules were suspended and the bill
considered engrossed.
Question on its passage.
Mr.. Beach, wish to say, in Justice to

effects the passage Of this bill will have
although, as amended, am going to vote
for it myself But | want the House to
understand the matter. There is a company
in that county which pays taxes on 1925, 900.
When this proposition comes up to be voted
upon, there are only three men representing
that interest who can vote on it.
The bill was then read third time and
passed.

WHERE THE SYMPATHY IS FouND.-A few
days since the feeling of the sentimental
party" were appealed to by occasional"
from Washington, to save the negro, SANS"
wife, from being sold into Southern slavery.
The money, $500, must be raised before the
first fApri, or Sans wife was "goner."
The rich Republican M. C's were appealed
to, and in two weeks raised one hundred
and thirteen dollars and thirteen cents.
Thus the case rested upon the 3lst Of March,
and Sans wife was to start the next morn
ing. At this time, half dozen Southern
gentlemen, and all slave holders while dis
cussing the merits Of sparkling Catawaba at
Wilard's casually learned how the affair
stood, took up collection and raised
among themselves the $8e6.s7, and restored
Sans" wife to the arms Of her sable hus-
band. The Abolii'nists assert now that
the reason that they did not raise the mon
ey. was that they are opposed to buying
slaves ~ Y Erpess.

of a young lady who had been buried more
than four years, was lately opened in Mem

A Spicy LErrER.-"Gov." Robinson
speaks in decidedly uncomplimentary terms
of his fellow, Jim Lane in the late cores

Interpreted, is supposed to mean that he is

and uncompromising. We will lay it be

Here is a specimen brick;
Mr.. Wade did not see cause to apprchend
that war would be made on seeding States
but asserted the right to do so if they saw
fit. He explained the duties of the Pres

What follows if the seeding State shut:
up her ports Of entry, so that ships cannot
discharge their cargoes? Then ships viii

blockadcs her ports to collect revenue,
then she will not have gained her indepen.

take the initiative, and declare war upon

met by force, and she must show OFT hel
independence by violence and war.
The act O~f1evying war is treason against
