rc-echoed: "Inslrrection! You would cx
Hcite insurrectitn n and massacre women and
sschildren!' And SO a senseless cry para
lyzes the national arm, and setsthe national
knees 10 quaking with fear Of an impossi-
bic calamity. Yes, insurrection on any ex-
tended scale-insuncction Of proportions
greater than those assumed by city mob
is impossible, and the men who started
the cry know it. The slaves are tied hand
and foot. They are inferior in
number to their opprcssors. They are
unarmed and defenseless Their wives
and children arc so many guarantys Of their
pcaceahle behavior. Ignorance, the fruit Of
oppression, has done its worst upon them.
They are slaves. To rise is to 60 to fearful
death. To murmur, even, is to invite the
descent Of the lash. The tyrants are arm
ed and organized, and would instantly
stamp out resistance to their will. There
can be no insurrect1on. But wherever the
L,ya1 armies 60, the cnfranchised male
sla7es-enfanchise by the armed treason
Of tleir masters-may be suffered to fall
into the rear, and there do the rongher
and more menial work Of their de-
liverers. They may do for our cause
what they everywhere do for the
enemy; aad, animated by the promise Of
freedom, they would do that work well.
Grant that they are not brave, yet they can

greater reason why they should be taken

They arc men-docile, obedlant, healthy

Our readers remember the Democratic
address signed ly the fourteen members Of
Congress, with Dick Richardson's maine at
tic head Ct Tie list. Tie real author Of it
however, was the secession leader Va1lan-
liylem. Tile substance Of the address
might have been culled from the speech Of
any 1raitor delivered in Congress during
the past two years There is not in it a
complaint or word Of 1isapprobation ofthe
Shareholders rebellion; not Il word Of con
dtmuation Of treason OF secession. Tue
summing up Of the address is IN these
words:
4'The great immediate issue is, to maintain the
Constitution it is, AID TO restore the Union 4:
it was.
WHO has proposed to change the consu-
tutien? Not the Republicans. The rebels
now in arms, and the very men who signed
the address, have clanlorcd for changes Of
the constitution. No one has been more
noisy fur attentions and amendments than
the Vrit.r Of that address-Va Vallaudi9haln
On the til Of February, 1861, this very in
iividual introduced into the House Of Rep
rcse1tatiycs joint resolution proposing
series Of amendments to the Constitution
which, if adopted, would have utterly sub
voted and ruined that instrument. lie
proposed to d;sit}e tic Uai2a iato fer sec~

six years by sections" A section should
have tie right to veto bill, aud any State
might sccedc from the Union upon obtain

ton! THIS scheme also provided for
tue extension Of slavery into all
the Territories Of the Republic, aud
denied to Congress tile right to exclude
ncw slave States from admission into the
Union. It provided for the subdivision OF
slave States, enabling the South out Of its
| present territory to create at least fifteen
more slave States, with thirty Senators
III short, the proposed amendments, il
adopted, would oyerturn and destroy thl
"coustitu1ion as it is,' and convert tlle

with the right Of secession as q constitu

The Chicago journal Of last evening has
the following which is worthy Of attention.
We have long had the suspicion, from Ger

We had q call yesterday from VIM. Cald-
well, Esq, edittr Of the North West, publish
I'd at Fort Gary, in the Selk}rk settlement.
He left home abont the middle Of june aud
reports everything prosperous among our
ntighbors in the valley Of the Red River Of
the North. Reports believed to be reliable
had reached the settlement that gold in par
ing quantities had been found on the head
waters Of the Saskatchewan, Clearwater and
Peace Rivers. Two hundred Canadian miners
Ind arrived, on their way to Caraboo, On the
West side Of the Rocky Mountains; but they
had so far changed their programme rs to de-
termine to explore the new localities from
which the favorable reports had come.
The settlement now numbers some II, GOO
people, and their trade with Minnesota a.
ready amounts to about two millions annnn-
ally, They pay in furs and coin. The goods
thus purchased are consumed By traders, trap
pers and Indians, who make long journeys to
the Rocky Mountains and the far North to
enjoy the excitement OF the chase. Furs
wc1c higher this year, owing to the competi'
tion Of dealers from the States with the Hud-
sons Bay Company. The story that the sup
ply is short is mistake.
The journey from st. Paul to Fort Garg Is
roW made in splendid coaches, some $50
miles, to Georgetown, on the Red River, and
thence BY steamer to the Fort, occupying in
all from seven to nine days. Stations with
comfortable accommodations are found at the
end Of each days journey. The trip to Lake
Ninnepeg is nov easily and comfortably
made, thanks to the intelligent enterprise Of
MlsErs. Burbank d Co., of st. Paul. The
trade With this section Of the Northwest is
speedily increasing, and it must il Very few
years assume gigantic proportions. Although
it naturally belongs to st. Paul, and nobody
here is disposed to interfere with our friends
thcrcaway, it will do no harm for our mer-
chants and business men to inquire how fur
they are interested in its development.
