O. We suggest that the Republican,:
very generally, everywhere, Immediately
write TO their member Of Congress, giving
their views upon any Of the proposed com
promises, that they may know what is de-
sired by their constituents at home. Don't
write 80 as to require an answer, for they
are overburdened already with that kind of
correspondence by an avalanche OF office
seekers. We believe ii would be crafty

When Lola Montez went TO California

gentleman was married man with two
children, and seeing him unhappy in their
absence, she presented him with sufficient
money to bring them and their mother on.
Shortly after their arrival, the husband
died. Lola then adopted the widow and
orphans-educating the latter at Mrs. VIII
lard's seminary at Troy. An officer in the
United States navy fell IN love with one of
these girls, and Lola, literally acting IN loco
parents, approved his suit. During her
last visit to England, the marriage took
place. Lola did not again encounter her

We suppose that unless all the Slave States
shall leave the Union soon, the country and
the present generation will have to bear
the stigma and odium of some kind of
fugitive slave law. We have therefore no
particular interes: in any modification of
the present fugitive slave law. IL human
beings are TO be hunted in the Free States,
and returned to bondage, it may just as well
be done under the present law as under any
which Mr.. Douglas may frame. What
difference will it make to the slave, wheth-
er he be returned to his unpaid task, BY
i" jury trial " in South Carolina, or by
Commissioner sitting in Boston chained
up Court house? So long as we are to have
any fugitive slave law, let the present one
remain, TO be the last which shall disgrace
a civilized country.
