SENATOR SEwARD's SpEEcH.-On Sat
urday last Senator Seward delivered a
speech in the Senate on the Secession
question, which more than anything else
that has been said or done, has had ten
dency to calm the public excitement and
produce harmony among the reasonable
men of all parties. Coming as it does
from the man who is to be at the head of
Mr.. Lincoln's Cabinet, and doubtless,
foreshadowing in some degree the policy
of the new administration, it cannot fail
of producing favorable results, although
we regret the'necessity of yielding all that
he proposes for the sake of Cancellation,
and for ourself believe that the constitu-
ton as it is, when strictly adhered to, af-
fords all the protection the slaveholding
States ought to have. Still, we cannot
deny the force of his suggestions.

thieves, and valuable horse taken there
from. 1t so happened, however, thai

and discovered the horse was gone. H,
Immediately mounted another horse an,
started in pursuit, and came up with then
near East Arlington, with horse an,
cutter, one of them leading Mrs. NJ

coming back, he seized the stolen horse b
the bride, at the same time telling til
rogues that :" he guessed he would tax
that horse !'--W. Watchmon.

of smallpox in Wolcott. In all cases
the attack has been light, and it is now

Eden, with whom, eleven years ago this
winter we worked in q cotton-mill, in

The military men on board highly com.

it was well done; that all which was
needed was little better range, which
they probably could have obtained in a

the opinion is expressed, that some one
