adapted to the purpose. Their first reso-
lution-to sit with closed doors-was so well
suited to their case that it can be looked
upon in no other light than Providential.

The Extension OF the Patent for McCor-
mick's Reaper.
If this were not an Administration in
which stealing is regarded as legitimate, no
man would have the assurance to apply to
it for a renewal of such patent as that of
McCormicks Reaping-machine. If it was
not intended to provide place for stealing,
no such power as that to renew patents
would have been given to the Commissioner
of Patents. There are patents for renewal
of which the owner can afford to pay one,
two, three or even FIVE hundred thousand
dollars, and yet the Commissioner has the
power to renew them on his own RESPONSE
bility.
What farce it is to surround the Gus
todians of the public money with re-
strictiops and bonds and criminal penalties,
if the Government is to keep open place of
such unlimited corruption and robbery
Mccormick states to the Commissioners that
he has sold machines under this patept to
the amount of nearly $4,OOO,OOO. He admits
an item, which he specifies as manufacturers
profits, of $757, $50, and other large items of
a similar nature, which he states, to reduce
the apparent amount of his net profit.
1t may be seen by his own exhibit that he
must have made profit of over a million on
the present patent. 1t does not expire till
next October; but he applied for a renewal
so as to take advantage of this Administra-
tion; and, in spite of the remonstrances of
the whole country, it is likely that it will be
granted, and this burden fastened upon the
farmers of the North for another seven years.
The counsel for the contestants applied for
time to procure evidence, and for oppor-
tunity to argue the case before the Commis-
sioner, but both were refused. A bill has
Just passed the House to take this case out of
the Commissioners hands, but it Is probable
that the renewal will be granted before the
bill can pass the Senate.
Mccormick invented none of the parts OF
his reaper. 1t is merely a combination Of
the inventions of others; and for sales of this
compilation, he has received near 81, OOO, 900.
1t is hardly necessary to look for other
reasons, when patentee can afford to pay a
Commissioner his price for renewal; but
there is another feature, which shows nice
appreciation of the influence which governs
this Republic. For about year, Mr.. Nc
CoImick has been publishing pro-slsyery
newspaper at Chicago, at quite heavy ex-
pense. He is a very pious man. People saw
the connection between the Scripture doc
tIine of slavery and the extension of the
patent for McCormick's reaper.

Is this n SlnyehoIders, Rebellion,

We called attention some time ago TO
the fact that there are but $50, 900 slave
holders in the South aud but 200, 900
slaveowncrs, in the revolving States; and
that this therefore was not Shareholders
rebellion; but the rebellion of people,
who, from various causes, sought to
achieve an independent nationality. The
agitation commenced thirty years ago,
when slavery was not brought in ones
tion. The question Of commercial rivalry
between Charleston, Savannah and New
Orleans, on one side, and New York, and
Boston and philadelphia, on the other,
entered into and animated this agitation.
The class Of professional politicians took
it up; and a school Of economic phIloso-
pBefs followed, who, finding IN slavery
the basis of separate government AID
Of a productive monopoly, sought to put
it IN practice"
The Buffalo Erpress disputes our con-
cnsions, and while admitting the nnmer-
-alinie,iuity Of the slave owners, assigns
10 .then an influence altogether dispro'
Eortiouate 70 their numbers:
"THc $4,000 Stockholders Of the
South, though onlparatiyely few in mum
bcrs. held almost "a monopoly of the in.
telIigcnge, wealth and political power OF
their section. They were both the makers
and executors Of the laws, they ruled the
masses in all the mora! relations OF life,
sJcially and as citizens and gave their
own tone to all political discussions

istocracy and It's cadets, was large aud

therefore the most earnest advocates of q
system of labor which, while it depressed
ald degraded them, afforded an excuse
for laziness' and unthrift. Whatever po-
itical ideas these unfortunate people may
have had, were derived from the aristoc-
racy. 1t was the planters who indoc-
;yinated them in the beauties Of secession,
and It is idle to pretend that 1t was not in
tho power Of the slave owners to have
prevented the rebellion
We do not admit tho truth of any such
description Of the white population Of the
south. They are largely Of Northern
birth; and the second generation has
hardly passed when North and South
were one people. The non-slaycholders
are professional men, merchants, mechan.
les and laborers, The census of 1850, OF
the Slave States, shows large class thus
engaged. We condense the table into

SENsBLE.-Jane Eyre says: al know
that if women wish to escape the stigma
of husband seeking they must act and
look like marble or clay, cold, expression
less, bloodess; for every appearance of
feeling, of joy, sorrow, friendliness, an
tipathy, admiration, disgust, are alike
construed by the world into an attempt
to hook husband Never mind we'll
meaning women have their own con
sciences to comfort them after all. Do
not, therefore, be too much afraid of
showing yourself as you are, affectionate
and good hearted do not too harshly re-
press sentiments aud feelings excellent in
themselves, because you fear that some
puppy may fancy that you are letting
them come out to fascinate him; do not
condemn yourself to live only.by halves
because if you showed too much ANNA
ton, some pragmatical thing in breeches
might take it into his pate to imagine
that you designed to devote your life to
his inanity." nt fHoH .p.H

REPEAL o. TIE VERMONT LIBERTY BILL.
The Vermont Personal Liberty Law
was repealed by The Legislature recently
in session. At the last session it was re-
ferrod TO learned Commission, to report
upon the question Of its constitutionality,
and the task was very ably done; aud the
question presented with great Clearnoss
and force.
Uupn this report, the Legislature has
acted though we are not informed what
circumstances attended the repeal Of the
law. IL is good precedent; and other
States should follow the example.

Az EXTRAoRDINARY SALT WELL.-One
Of the most extraordinary salt wells on
record, perhaps, is that now being opc-
rated at Wellsvillc, Columbiana county,
Ohio. The well was sunk in anticipation
OF finding oil, but when at the depth of
four hundred and eighty feet, the borcrs
struck vein of gas, which burst forth
with such violence as to eject all the tools
used in boring, together with two hum
dred feet Of pipe which had been prcv-
ously introduced. The boring had devcl-
oped worry strong vein of salt water, and
the gas continued to spout the whole col.
umn of salt and fresh water furnished by
the well, to the height of one hundred
and fifty feet, for six months. The idea
Of manufacturing salt was then con.
ceivcd, and after the necessary pans,
tanks, &C., were put up, the work was
commenced. The gas was brought in
pipes from the gasometer and introduced
into the furnaces in various Jets, which,
being ignited, perform the whole office of
evaporation without any other fuel. The
furnace CLOVIS with an intense heat, and
the flame issues from the top Of the chin
ney. The salt water flows at the rate of
about six gallons per minute, and there 10
more than sufficient gas to evaporatc the
whole 1t yields about barrel of salt
per hour The gas furnishes pressure
of one hundred and eighty-six pounds to
the square inch, which is eighty or ninety
pounds per inch more than is usually al
lowed in running locomotive engine
The well is most extraordinary one, and
the owners, though they failed to find oil,
will, it is believed, make handsome
thing out of it.

RE HAPPY WHILE You MAY.

Oh sigh not at each petty care,
That crosses lfc's rude wayi
The morn of life will soon pas by
Be happy while you may,
The pen of Time right steadily
Full many line will trace,
And soon enough the blooming rose
viii pale upon thy face.
Then think not If the tiny clouds
That mar lifc's htful skyi
lis time enough to think Of them,
In the coming ty-nnd-by'
When real cures around thy path,
And real Voc Is thine
When clouds completely hide the sun,
Which no more seems to shine
Then is there cause for fearful prayers
Then is there cnuso for grief
But then the soul need not despair,
For Heaven affords relief
But while the Ugh, of joyous youth
Still unimates the eye,
The heart should be as light as air,
And never know sigh
Oh many scene Of grief and rain
The future will disclose,
A. slow the veil is thrown aside
That many a hope o'erthrows.
The future to the eye Of youth
Seems full of sweet delight
Peoplcd with forms of Joy ana love,
And faucicd visions bright
Too soon, alas upon the scono
Comes jealousy and strife;
And slowly do we learn the dread
Realities Of life.
Then leave dull signs for coming years,
And sing life's morn awnyi
Smile at each triaing cloud you see
BE happy while you may.
