SEED WORDS.

Twas nOthing-a mere idle word
From carless lips that fell,
Forgot, perhaps, as soon as said
And purposeless as we'll.
But yet, as on the passing wind
Is borne ihe little seed,
Which blooms, unheeded as flower,
Or as uoisums weed.
So, often, will single word,
Unknown its end fulfil,
And bear in seed the flower and fruit
OfactionS good or i'll.

Proposed Adjustment.

The following is the plan of adjustment
proposed by Mr.. Bigler, of Pennsylvania
The object, as will be perceived, is to get
the question of slavery out Ct Congress
and the popular elections in the North
Even the admission Of State is provided
for =
That amendments to the Constitution
be submitted, embracing the following
propositions, to wit;
/. That the territory now owned by the
United States shall be divided by line
from east to west, on the parallel of 80 de-
grees, 80 minutes north latitude.
2. That the territory south of said line
with the view to the formation of States,
shall be divided into four Territories, OF as
near equal size as Congress may deem best,
considering the formation of the country,
and having due regard to the convenience
of the inhabitants of the territory now or
ganizcd That the territory north of said
| line shall in like manner be divided into
eight Territories.
3. That when the inhabitants of such
Territories, or either of them shall become
sufficiently numerous, Congress shall pro-
vide governments for the same and when
the bona fde inhabitants in any Territory
shall be equal to the then ratio of repre-
sentation in Congress-the fact to be asccr-
tained by census taken under the direc-
ton Of Congress-it shall be the duty Of
the President of the United States, by
proclamation, to announce the admission
of such State into the Union on terms oi
equality with the original States.
A. That in all the Territories south oi
said line of 80 degrees 80 minutes, invol
untary servitude as it now exists in the
States south of Mason and Dixon's line
shall be recognized and protected by al
the departments of the Territorial Govern
ments and in all the Territories north o.
said line, involuntary servitude, except a!
a punishment for crime shall be prohibited
5. That Congress shall be denied the
power to abolish slavery in places, nov
under its jurisdictions, situate within tht
limits of slaveholdng States, as also with
in the District of Columbia, so long a.
slavery may exist in either of the States o.
Virginia or Maryland.
6. That, in addition to the present pro
vision for the rendition of fugitives from
labor, it shall be made the duty of the non
slaveholding States to provide efficient law
for the delivery of fugitives from labor t'
the persons to whom such service or labo
} may be due.
Z. That neither these proposed amend
ments, nor the third paragraph of the sec
ond section of the first article of the Con
stitution, nor the third paragraph of tn
second section of the fourth article of tn
Constitution, shall be liable to futur
amendment.

andAno one allowed on the deck except
our own crew. As soon as there was
light enough to sec we crossed the bar and
proceeded on up the channel, (the outer
bar buoy having been taken awayO the
steamer ahead of us sending off rockets
and burning lights until after broad day
light continuing on her course up near
two miles from Fort Moultrie, Fort Sump-
ter being about the same distance, mas
ked battery on Morris Island, where
there was a red Palmetto flag flying,
opened fire upon US, the distance being
about five eighths of mile. We had the
American flag flying at our Flagstaff at the
time, and soon after the first shot hoisted
large American ensign at the fore. We
continued on under the fire of the battery
for over ten minutes, several of the shot
going clear over us one just passed clear
of the pilot house another passed between
the smoke stack and the walking beam OF
the engine another struck the ship just
abaft the fore rigging and stove in the
planking; another shot came within an
ace of carrying away the rudder.
AT the same time there was a movement
of two steamers from near Fort Moultrie
one of them towing schooner { presume
an armed schooner) with the intention Of
cutting us off. Our position now became
rather critical, as we had to approach
Fort Moultrie to within tbreequarters of a
mile before we could keep away for For
Sumpter. A steamer approaching u'
with an armed schooner in tow, and thu
battery on the island firing at us all thu
time, and having no cannon to defent
ourselves from the attacks of the vessels
we concluded that to avoid certain capture
or destruction we would endcavor to &c
to sea.
Consequently we wore round and stoot
5 down the channel, the battery firing upol
us until their shot fell short; and as i
was now strong ebb tide, and the watel
having fallen some three feetwe proceede,
with caution and crossed the bar safely a
fifty minutes past eight, a. m, and contin
; ued on our course for this port, where w
: arrived this Saturday. morning, after
boisterous passage. n steamer from
Charleston followed us for about thre,
hours, watching our movements. In jus
tice to the officers and crew of each de
partment of the ship, must add that thei
behavior while under the fire OF the bat
terry reflected great credit on them.
Mr.. Brewer, the New York pilot, wa
of very great assistance to me in helping
to pilot the ship over Charleston bar au'
up and down the channel.
Very respectfully, your obedient servan

Buchanan's Special Message.

We publish on the first page Of the Col
umba Democrat, Mr. BUcHANAN's Spe-
eial Message, in relation to our National
difficulties, addressed to the Senate and
House of Representatives of the United
States. 1t exhibits the wisdom of a states
man and the sagacity of a patriot-Mr.
BUCHANAN has shown to the world that
he is now as he has ever been, faithful to
his constitutional obligations, and that his
policy, if strictly carried out, will enure to
the honor of the country, and the blood
less s-adjustment of all our threatened in
testine dissentions. We rejoice, as will all
conservative citizens of the country, that
in this unprecedented emergency, we have
a sagacious statesman, such as JAMES BU-
cuANAN, at the helm of the Ship ofState.
Would to Heaven that infatuated men,
North and South, would show the same
concilatory and patriotic disposition which
is so eminently conspicuous in the conduct
and recommendations of Mr.. BUCHANAN ;
then, and not till then, can we hope to sec
peace and prosperity restored to our dis
trac.ed country.

Editors of Democratic newspapers, then

contest of 1888, by which injudicious d.
vision of the Democratic Party upon WOLF
and MuHLENBERo-he supporting Mr.. NJ
and we supporting Mr.. W.--bo,h parties
were defeated, and Jos. RITNER was elec-
ted Governor of Pennsylvania. So much
then for our folly in running split ticket,
as in 1860, and so much for the introduc.
ton into public life of the "TousBM Prin,
ter Boy" who has since filed many posi-.
tions of honor, with fidelity and ability
even to the second office in the gift of the
American Government, viz that of an
United States Senator.
Col. BIGLER was early elected to the
State Senate, then Governor of Pennsyl.
vania, and subsequently,, to the United
States Senate. The last named position
he will have held six years terminating OIL
the Third of next March. In each and
every position, to which he has been called
by the partiality of his Democratic fellow
citizens, Governor BIGLER, has efficiently
and faithfully sustained the interests and
represented the true principles of the De-
mocracy of Pennsylvania. And now a
the close of his Senatorial career, of hin
it may be truthfully said, he was ever
faithful at his post and always jealous o
the rights of his constituents,--a peel
amongst the American Statesmen.
Pennsylvania will have further use fol
Senator BIGLER. Such men are rarely t
be found in this degenerate age and time
A self made man-the architect 0

The letter from the able pen of Hon.
ELLIS LEWIS, on our outer form of to-day,
in reference to the Personal Liberty Laws
of this State, will command special atten-
ton and should be carefully perused byeve-
ry citizen of this Commonwealth. No Jurist
in Pennsylvania is more intimately ac-
quainted with the statutory provisions of
the State than the Ex Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court, and few possess the can
dor that he has exhibited in exposing their
iniquitous bearing upon the peace of the
country and well-being of the Censtitu,

whose hand this paper may pass, whether
Unionist or Secessionist, Republican OF
Democrat, to carefully investigate its pos
itions and to practice upon its precepts.
