The STATES BEFORE UNIoN.-J udge Story
gives graphic picture Of what the States
were before the adoption of the present Union,
and what they would likely be again, if it
should be dissolved
"The most opposite commercial regulations
existed in the different States and in many
cases, and especially between neighboring
States, there was perpetual course of retalli-
atory legislation, from their jealousies and ri
valries in commerce, in agriculture, or in man
ufactures Foreign nations did not fail to avail
themselves Of all the advantages accruing to
them from this suicidal policy tending to the
common ruin. And as the evils grew more
pressing, the resentments of the States against
each other, and the consciousness that their
local interests were placed in opposition TO
each other, were daily increasing the mass OF
disaffection, until it became obvious that the
dangers of immediate warfare between some of
the States were imminent.
But the evil did not rest here. Our foreign
commerce was not only crippled, but almost
entirely destroyed. Foreign nations imposed
upon our navigation ard trade Just such re-
strictions as they deemed best for their own
interests and policy. All of them had a com
mon interest to steal our trade and to enlarge
their own. They did not fail to avail them
selves, to the utmost, Of their advantages =
They pursued system of the most rigorous
exclusion of our shipping from all the benefits
of their own commerce and endeavored 10
secure, with bold and unhesitating confidence,
monopoly of ours. The effects of this sys-
TEN of operations, combined with our political
weakness, were soon evident. Our navigation
was ruined our mechanics were in state Of
ineXtricabe poverty; our agriculture was
withered, and the little money still found in the
country was gradually finding its way abroad
to supply our immediate wants and state of
alarming embarrassment in that most difficult
and delicate Of all relationship relation of
private debtors and creditors threatened daily
an overthrow even of the ordinary adminstra.
tion of justice. Severe as were the calamities
of the war, the pressure of them was far less
mischievous than this slow but progressive de
struction Of all our resources, all cur industry
and all our credit.

A LADY in the Interior of Japan.

The Gazette de Saint Petersburg publishes
a letter from Nine. Albrecht, the wife of q
physician who visited Jeddo last winter and
returned from Jeddo to Hakodadi by land
She says that they found great difficulty in
getting permission to make the journey, and
that it was dscountenanced By the representa-
tives of other foreign nations, the American
consul speaking particularly against it. They
provided themselves with the little bamboo
cages which the japanese use for palanquins.
and which are so small that one cannot have
a seat in them, but must sit on his feet. There
were five of the party, and they were escorted
by seven japanese fuactiOnaries. each one also
in his little cage The paanquins sus-
pended to a POLE which is carried by two
bearers, one before and one behind. Spare
bearers, ran along by the side of the balan-
quins, for relays, some palanquins have as many
as ten in all Besides, large number of po-
lice accompanied them on either side Of their
line Of palanquins. A body Of police in front,
forming vanguard, continually shouted in q
melancholy and measured tone, "Saray, Saray,"
sit down, sit down; and all the people who
they met sat down in the streets, along the
raining. Only in places inhabited by princes
of tue crown, where the japanese people are
allowed to keep their trowsers clean. In the
cities there was often great confusion. The
people pressed about the palanquin, trying TO
open the doors on both sides, but the policemen,
armed with long slaves, pushed them back,
sometimes drawing out from their sleeves a
short club, of which the people seemed to be
greatly afraid Nine. Albrccht was told that
whoever was touched by this club was con-
sdercd 10 be under arrest. The whole train
was mere than half mile long A messenger
Travelled before them, and at every station they
found a very comfortable room hung with
magnificent painted papers. There was but
one inconvenience it was cold. These rooms
were warmed with portable stoves at evening,
but the fires did not last long. The road was
very good the first half of the way it was
planted with large trees on eack side, forming
a complete arch overhead, and beyond the
trees she saw nothing but rice fields The lat
ter half of the way was mountainous, and they
had much Inconvenience from snow and rain
Here they were scarcely ever out of hearing of
waterfalls, and they lad frequently to cross
over on ferry boats. The reception with which
they met in every town was very tedious. The
Governor first came out in uniform and saluted
every palanquin; police were posted on both
sides OF the street, with their Japaned clubs,
and behind them were the winged functionaries.
This winged appearance is due to particular
gauze Over-dress which they wear. Behind
them were servants. holding, upon ances some
thing resembling horses tails The same GER
emonies met them everywhere; sometimes
varied with an army with bows and arrows,
and at other cities were hedges Of soldiers,
with gun in one hand and match in the
other. The journey occupied twenty-five days,
and they Travelled from fifteen to twenty five
miles per day.

"Oho." bawled the mask, with shrug of
his shoulders. Against imperative orders
there is no contending."
The yellow domino Immediately threw off
his mask and domino, and revealed to the as
tonished prince and his attending mobiles, a
private trooper of the Irish brigade. then in
the service of France. At this unexpected
discovery, the Danphiu had exteme difficulty
in restraining both his own and the mirth Of
his attendants. Introducing, however, as much
severity into his countenance and voice as he
could, he commenced with:
Now, in the name of all that is ravenous,
my good friend-not to inquire how You OBJ

A SNOWMAN MADE RESPONSIBLE FOR A
BEARS CowARDIcE.-W read in the last
Cuba Messenger which has come to hand that
man in Matanzas, the proprietor of the pub
lie building, advertised grand fight between
a ball and bear. Anxious for exciting enter
tainment, the public crowded the ring at the
appointed time, paying an admission fee. But,
when the animals were turned into the arena,
Ursus showed considerable of the white feath-
er, and only acted on the defensive, refusing to
attack Taurus, but satisfying himself with
boxing his ears and scratching his face, when
the horned enemy attempted to gore him, and
he was in such position that be could not
run out Of his difficulty This lack of pluck
was detrimental to the quality of the sport
promised, and the public officials were DISCUS
ted. Forthwith the proprietor was brought
before the authorities, and heavy fine levied
on him, because his bear was deficient of pluck,
and thereby made him a swindler 10 deprecia-

Cobb at Home.

The Southern Confederacy, published at At
anta, Georgia. thus scorns its recreant fellow
citizen, the late Secretary of the Treasury
" When this pretender and charlatan in po-
litical economy was daily installed Secretary of
the Federal Else by an imbecile and treacher-
Gus President, the country was happy aud
prosperous-peace and plenty reigne1 in this
land of iberty-this asylum of the oppressed.
And through the judicious management of Sec
retary Guthrie and by the administrative
ability cvinced by President Pierce in the col
collection of the revenues, Mr.. Cobb was greet
ed by an overfowing treasury the public debt
reduced, the country quiet, agriculture prOfta-
ble, manufactures and commerce never more
prosperous, and confidence mistaken To-day
lce find Dir. Cobb, like the bandit, fleeing from
justice and atrocdy Of his olrn deeds, seeking
refuge and safety under the cloak of patriotic
devotion to Southern rights. To the hollows
and caves Of the Sixth district of Georgia, he
wends bis way in search of hiding place, and
there to gather around him clan, which, by
ambuscade and foray, he expects to subdue a
brave and happy people.
Contrast the 4th of March, 1857, with the
4th of March, 1851 James Buchanan was
inaugurated President the 4th of March 1851
He found this Government in all the plentitude
of its majesty. The canvass of American COM
merce whitened every sea our manufactures
were vigorous and reaped their rewards in ev-
cry mart and cline; the products of the agri
cnturalst bestowed not only healthy remu-
neration, but a bounty whilst sustaining the
poor and clothing the oppressed. Friendly
relations existed between the section, and moth
ing seemed to impede the progress Of Ameri-
canism in the onward march to full frution
ofall human happiness. How different to day
How sad the change! Kind fortune has been
driven from our land p
A Democrat of the Grand River Valley,
not often seen in church, recently attended
Methodist prayer meeting. We shall call him
Squiggles, by way of concealment. In short
time his countenancc lost its usual jolly look,
and be became oblivious of the soletnnties 60
ing on around him, and was plunged in pro-
found reverie over the recent defeat of bis party
in Maine, which he had been discussing that
morning AS he reflected his face naturally
elongated, and his jaw dropped. Noticing his
serious and solemn look, and not remembering
to have ever seen him before, one of the breth
ren took him to be stranger of religious
turn of mind, and leaned over his bench and
remarked:
" Brother, these are refreshing seasons"
Squiggles gazed vacantly at the speaker and
groaued inwardly. The brother pursued.
&" 1t is good to be here
SquiggIes still absorbed in reverie, groaned
again.
& Brother, do you often think of your future
state?7
AT the word "state" the eyes of our Demo
cratic friend lost their dreamy look, and his
jaw clashed into place like rat-trap.
"State" !" he exclaimed, bringing down his
cenched fist on the back of his questioner's
bench, with an emphasis that started the wor-

AMPHIBIoUs WoMEN.-The most remark
able sight met with, says a recent traveller,
was the number of women, who seemed to be
more like fishes than human beings, for, get
ting their living by fishing, they reside upon
the water in great boats. As for the manner
of their fishing, it Is sufficiently curious, for not
only do they use nets and lines, but should a
particular fish escape their net, they make no
more ado than plunge into the depth of the sea,
after the fashion of ducks and swans, and it is
said that they never fail to secure the fish ;
neither are they afraid Of the whales, porpoises
or other great fish with which these seas
abound for they carry with them long sharp
knife, or spear, ready for defense or attack, as
the case may be; and this particular race Of
women may always be known by their eyes,
which, from continual diving, grow of a blood
red color.

SAM HoUsToNs s LErTER-The following is
the conclusion Of Houston's letter to some gen
tlemen, Of Huntsville, Texas:
II am now an aged man. My locks have
become white in toiing, as | believe, for the
liberty Of mankind. Were I young, that
might look forward to the future, feeling that
whatever danger might come, my strong arm
would be at hand to defend my family, should
feel less anxiety than l do at present. The
years that will have TO endure the misfortuDes
Of civil war are but few. If could feel that
with the close of my career would end the
miseries of my race, l could share its misfor
tunes with patience but to feel that the per
lis of revolution must continue, that war, with
its attendant horrors Of bloodshed, rapine and
devastation must still be visited upon it, would
embitter my last moments; and after living TO
witness the demolition of the best government
that ever existed. 1 would sink to the grave
without hope that Freedom would be regen-
Grated, Or our posterity ever enjoy again the
blessings with which we had parted. Let US
pause and ponder well before we take any
action outside Of the Constitution.
