Uaited States, representing the sentiment Of the
non slaveholding States, have so declared il by
solemn resolution. Go % the camp OF the ma
dcnal soldier, A. I have done. and ask him il he
has shouldered his musket to einancipate the
slave. OF to interfere m the relations of the mas
ter towards his slave. andbe will answer no. He
will tell you that his purpose is TO uphold the
rights of the people under the Constitution. and
not to wrong the people by violating their rights.
And ! tell you here, tonight, that n large po--
ton Of the people of the South only need be con-
WINGED that equality of rights is the principle on
which the battles are to be fought. and they will
rally once more under the star spangled banner
and unite in the overthrow Of the desperate and
un2rincipled leaders who have hurried them into
rebellion TO crafty their selfish and mean ambi
ton.
The remarks of Mr.. WOLFE confirmed the
views which we have expressed so frequently.
We have as great an enemy in Abolitionism at
the North, as in Secession at the South.
Let us heed the warning from Kentucky thus
given. Sooner or later their mud career ~iu
driUe the men Of the slacehoIding States into one
united Effort TO ouerthroW the GsrerRment, sckieh
should encircIe. in its maternal arms, all the CHI
zeRs 0fthe great republic.

Tho Terre Haute Erpress of yesterday says:
DR.. B. +. Mullen, of Ripley county. Colonel of
the 6lst regiment, was in the city last night, and
called at our Office, while we were, unfortunately
absent. We regret exceedingly not seeing him,
an old acquaintance and valued friend of former
years. Ii energy. intelligence and perseverance
serve to secure success in an Undertaking, then is
the filing Of the 6lst regiment a toregone con-
clusion, as, in addition to d~auntless bravery, Col.
Mullen possesses the above qualifications in .
more than ordinary degree.
The New Albany Ledger says
We suppose we violate no condolences in stating
that Gen. Sherman is now with the army on the
Nashville railroad. and a battle is expected AZ
early day. The secessionists in Louisville profess
to be confident that Buckner will take the city.

BLoNDIN AND THE LIoN-M. Blondin
wheeled lion cub over the rope at the Zoo
logical Gardens, Liverpool, on the afternoon
of the Goth of June-a boisterous wind pre-
vailing at the time The lion, which was Is
months old, and is called Tom Sayers, after
the renowned pugtlist, was strapped to the
barrow. Much curiosity was excited to see
the animal. Scores of glasses were raised.
and when the head of young Tom was observ-
ed, with eyes wandering about, as if anxious
to know what was to become of him, the clap
ping and cheering became very great. Hav-
ing adjusted the barrow, Blondin began to
move, apparently trembling with the weight
of his load. A guy was attached to the bar
row, and as it was let out by his assistant, it
by some means or other got entangled after
he had proceeded some thirty or forty feet
Biondin halted, and the guy rope fell to the
ground. The heart became sick to look at
him. People kept their breath, expectir !.
every moment that the gymnast, with
Sayers and the barrow, would be pre-
into the "City of Pekin, or into the Ian,
below. Instantly Blondin's resolution was
taYen. He evidently could not get on. and
he began to move backward cautiously and
slowly Women were as if they were wit
Messing an execution. A deep silence pre-
vailed, which was only broken when Blondin
arrived safely on the platform. Again the
barrow was adjusted, and Blondin moved on
this time without guy rope. Gradually he
approached the center, and, after resting n
short time, began to push up the incline.-
The wind seemed to impede him very much,
and it was really frightful to see the barrow
roll back occasionally about foot, as if he
who guided it had not sufficient strength to
push it on another inch.-English Paper.

A CURIOUS WAY OF GETTING REsrKD.-It
is custom in Berwickshire, England, among
women workers in the field, when their backs
became much tired by bowling low down
while singing turnips with short handled
hoes, to lie down with their faces to the
ground, allowing others to step across the
lower part of their backs on the lumbar re-
gion, with one foot, several times, until the
pain of fatigue is removed. Burton, in his
! !. First Footsteps in East Africa, narr24Aa
a very similar custom of females whes lead
the camels, who, on feeling fatigued, lie at
full length, prone, standing upon each 9TH
er's back, trampling and kneading with their
toes, and rise like giants refreshed. The
custom is called fogsi' in Africa, in our
country it is Strengthening the back. - Noies

GES. Fremont INCREASING THE ARTILLERY
SERvICE.-Fremont seems to have fallen in
with Gen. McClellan's idea that this is to be
war of artillery, and he is preparing vast
force of that arm of the service for the Army
of the West. In addition to the batteries
already in service in this State, 40 full COM
parties are to be organized. The lst Missouri
regiment, which suffered so terribly and be-
haved so gloriously in the late battle, has
been called in from Rolla, to be organized for
artillery service. and two recruiting Offices
were opened to FIJI up the regiment to the re-
quired complement-l2 squads, with bat
terry of 6 guns each. Four 32-pounders have
been srnt out to Rolla, nine or ten heavy
guns to the Iron Mountain, several to Jefer-
son City, and number of 6S-pounders have
been put in position on elevations command
ing the most important high roads that lead
into the city.-S- Louis letter.

Cows IN THE CRY OF LoNDoS.-One of the
last places in the world. perhaps, where one
would expect to find herd of three or four
hundred cows, would be the city of London,
especially in that fashionable part of it known
as the "West End" And yet, if one con-
siders moment, it is manifest milk for the
million" must somehow or other be provided,
and the how becomes interesting. "Milk for
the babes" is scriptural, and we we're much
struck with the good security-so characteris-
tic of English thoroughfares-furnished to
the babes of st. James Park for the putty
of the beverage furnished them. Large,
healthy, sleek looking cows were standing in
the shade of the trees by the wayside, held
by rope, and ever and anon some nurse, or
mother. or fond father, would pause with a
baby wagon, while the attendant would milk
a glass Of the unadulterated article, and the
young sucking would imbibe it fresh and
warm from the cow.

Sunlight upon Judea's hills
And on the waves of Galilee-
On Jordan's stream, and on the rills
That feed the dead and sleeping sea
Most freshly from the green wood springs
The light breeze on its scented wings;
Aud gaily quiver in the sun
The cedar tops Of Lebanon.
A few more hours-a change has come!
The sky is dark without cloudl
The shouts of wrath and joy are dumb,
And proud knees unto eafth are bowed.
A change is in the hill of Death,
The helmed watchers pant for breath,
And turn with wild and maniac eyes
From tho dark scene of sacrificed
That Sacrifce-the death of Him
The High and ever Holy One! y
Well may the conscious Heaven grow dir
And blacken the beholding Sun l..
The wonted light hath fed away,
Night settles on the middle day,
And Earthquake from his caverned bed
Is waking with q thrill of dread.
The dead are waking underneath
Their prison door is rent away,
And, ghastly with the seal of Death,
They wander in the eye of day!
The temple Of the Cherubim,
The House of God, is cold and dim;
A curse is on its trembling walls,
Its mighty veil asunder falls.
Well may the cavern-depths of Earth
Be shaken, and her mountains nod:
Well may the sheeted dead come forth
To gaze upon suffering God!
Well may the temple-shrine grow dim,
And shadows veil the Cherubim,
When lie, the chosen One of Heaven.

Gave keenness to His sore distress,
And added to His tears of blood
Refuse its trembling gratitude?
