A correspondent, Of the Chicago Dai.
ly Journal writing from Cincinnati, details
a scene Of the working Of our peculiar
institution" as follows:
Years Of talk about the wickedness of
slavery, will not so stir the sluggish blood,
as single incident occurring in a moment.
On the cars the other day, we noticed a
beautiful woman--one of the finest forms.
and sweetest lady.like countenances we
have seen for many day--sttracted our
attention. On the seat back Of her was
a gentlemanly looking man, whose fea-
lures the lacy's very much resembled.
Before the cars started, another well.
dressed gentlemen came in, and recog.
nized the first, took seat by the side O
him:
"Is that a slave?" asked the second
gentleman, pointing to lady IN front.
YES"
We were as:onished, for the lady had
deep blue eyes, straight, beautiful hair,
and a clear blooming complexion.
"Yours?"
"Yes."
"For sale?"
"She is."
"What do you ask?'
"Twelye hundred" .-..
The trader-for so I deemed him
walked out in front of the woman exam
ined her hands, tried her arms and Joints,
aud then as if examining a beef, with
both hands, examined her bosom, ,3abdo-
men and hips, in the meantime asking the
shrinking creature series Of questions
such as we hope never again to hear pu.
to one Of the sex of our own mother.
"1ll take her, and pay the money
Then the train reaches -."
The blue-eyed faxen.haired chattle,
goes to New Orleans, and to fate worse
than death. Such is the "divine institu-
tion."
Were Northern haters Of slavery re.
sponslble for the Bleaching Of that chat
tie? -.

~To appear consistent, the Doug
las Democrats in Congress are compelled
to endorse Polygamy. 1t will be seea by
examining the vote on the anti Polygamy
bill, that every Ohio Democrat voted
against il! As general thing the anti
Douglas men, particularly Democrats
from the South, voted for the bill. What
a beautiful record for men pretending to be
civilized.

RThe Springfield Republican say.
the Potter and Pryor affair recalls tho
way in which old Gen. Putnam. Of revo-
lutlonary memory, met the challenge Of
tho British officer. He proposed that
they should show their courage by
sitting down by a barrel Of powder. to
which a lighted slow match was attached
and await the result. The British officer
declared the proposition "barbarous'' and
'ook to his heels. leaving "Oli Put"
moking his pipe calmly over barrel Of
"onion seed"

H The Eufala (Alabama) Sp;rii
states that there is an old negro pilot on
one Of the Chattahoochee River steamers,
whose skin is changing from a jet black to
the fairest white. His neck and arms, as
far down as his fingers, are Of smooth,
soft, delicate whiteness, that would rival
that Of the tenderest, purest Circassian.
His lips are of soft, ruddy hue, and bis
face and body beginning to show the
same radical, wonderful change.

RThe Republicans of Chicago are
erecting building expressly to sccomo-
date the great mass who will attend the
National Convention and for political use
during the campaign. It will "take in"
5000 or 10000 people, and will be FORM
ally opened on the 18th Of May, when
the National Convention assemblies. The
Democrat says it is expected that some Of
the big guns Of the party will discharge
themselves in the wigwam every evening
during the Convention.

A Good Days Work,

We done good days work, if1
never do another said Mr.. Barlow,
rubbing his hands together, wisely, and
with the air OF a man who felt very much
pleased with himself.
And SO have l." Mrs. Barlow's voice
was in a lowor tone, and less exultant
yet indicative Of spirit at peace with
itself
LET US compare notes." said Mr..
Barlow in the confident manner of one
who knows that triumph will be on his
side, "and see which has done the best
days work"
"You, Of course, returned the gentle
hearted wife.
"We shall see. Let the history of
your days doings precede mine"
"No," said Mrs. Barlow, you shall
give the first experience"
Every WELL" And full of his subject,
Mr.. Barlow began:
"You remember the debt Of Warfeld
about which spoke few days ago.
"Yes."
Il considered it despera;e-would
have sold out my entire interest at thirty
cents on the dollar when left home this
morning. Now the whole claim is secure.
l had to scheme little. 1t was sharp
practice, but the thing is done. don't
believe that another creditor of Warfeld's
will get third of his claim"
"The next operation" continued Mr..
Barlow, II considered quite as good
About year ago took fifty acres of
land in Erie county, for debt, at valua-
ton Of five dollars an acre. sold it to
day for ten. I don't think the man
knew just what he was buying. He
called to see me about it, and l asked ten
dollars an acre at a venture, when he
promptly laid down one hundred dollars
to bind the bargain. If should never
see him again I am all right. That is
transaction number two. Number three
is as pleasant to remember. I sold lot
of goods, almost year out of date, to
young country merchant, for cash. He
thinks he has bargain; and perhaps he
has, but l would have let them 90 at any
time during the past six months at loss
OF thirty per cent. and thought the sale
a desirable ons."
"Now, there's my good days work
Jenny, and it is one to be proud of. I !
take some credit to myself for being,
upon the whole. pretty bright sort of
man, and bound to go through. Let us
have your story new."
The face fMrs. Barlow flushed slight.
y. Her husband waited for few mo.
ments, and then said:
"Let us hear of the yards Of stitching,
and the piles Of good things made
"No--nothing Of that" answered Mrs.
Barlow, with a slight veil Of feeling
covering her pleasant voice. II had an.
other meaning when spoke of having
accomplished good days work. And
now, as my doings will bear no compar-
son with yours think Of declining their
.ehearsal.
"a bargain is bargain, Jenny, said
Mr.. Barlow. "Word-keeping is a car
iinal virtue. So let your story be told,
You have done a good days work in
7our own estimation, for you said so.-
