Slavery is a wrong, recognized and sus-
tanned by State law. Its necessary devel-
opment presently brings the whole ma
ton into mortal danger. Now, omitting
altogether the constitutional right to des-
troy it as a measure of public safety, a
nation which has succeeded in suppress
ing the rebellion and averting the danger
might obviously do whatever was neces-
sary to avoid a recurrence of precisely
the same peril. Nor could any State COM
plain of its injured rights. No State can
have right to threaten the nation. A
man upon steamer may have matches
in his state-room and keep light burn
ing, and his room is his castle; but he has
no right to stow a keg of gunpowder un-
der his berth. Now that we have prac-
tically discovered that slavery is gnnpow-
der, we shall be guilty of suicide if we
permit ourselves to be blown up.-Hdr-

TINE TO Cur TMBER.-On this subject
VIM. Beck, a farmer and mechanic who
has made observations the last twenty
years, says in the Boston Cultivator.
Most kinds of wood cut and sawed in
the months of January, FEBRUARY, Sep
tember, and October, are more durable
than when cut at any other season of the
year. Walnut, if cut in June will not
become worm eaten. There is difference
in the same species of trees; those that
grow on high, stony land are more dura-
BILE and harder than those that grow on
low lands.

WARLIKE INFLUENCE OF HIsToRY.-AH
the entertainment and talk of history is
of nothing almost but of fighting and
killing, and the glory and renown which
are bestowed upon conquerors, who for
the most are mere butchers of mankind,
mislead growing youth who by this means
come to think slaughter the laudable
business of mankind, and the most hero
ic of virtues.

Dryden, on the night that one of his
plays was damned, was taking his melan-

said: What, Dryden, my boy, upon my

thing more shocking to persons feelings
than a damned play?' Yes, SIR replied

ONIONS FOR CATrLE.-A correspondent

peck of onions, for ridding cows or OK

an infallible remedy in his practice. They
also give tone to the stomach, and are es-

MAUDIE.

Written on the death Of Maudie Christy.I
Fold her little shrOud about her,
Softest folds of snowy white:
Yearning hearts must live without her.
She is in the land of light.
Clasp the tiny waXen fingers
Der the peaceful slumbering breast
Close the little eyelids gently.
Little Maudie's gone TO rest
On her dOwny coffin pillow
Lay the darling little head;
Lay the precious sleeper softly.
In her strange and lonely bed,
Never more shall pain s keen arrows
Pierce that sweet and tender form,
She is safe from every evil.
Safe from every earthly storm.
To that far of blessed country,
Where your young white dove has gone;
Think not that she went through darkness,
Wandering, peaceful and alone,
Jesus loves these little children,
He has borne her DER the food;
And has laid your treasure safely
In the bosom of her God.

Tn, Food au..tIon In DIIIe.

The following is the plan Of the Confederate
Secretary Of War to collect food for tho rebel
1rmv. submitted by jeff. Davis with his ad-
drc7s to his Congress:
IL Let the people In each county, parish,
uI ward, select at public meeting, as early as
Convenient, committee of three or more dis
oruct citizens, charged with the duties herein
after mentioned.
-. Let 1t he the duty Of this committee to
ascertain from each citizen in the county or
paIIsh what amount of surplus corn and meat,
whether bacon, pork, or beef, he can spare for
the utC Of the army, after reScrying supply
nor bis family and those dependent on him for
food.
Let this committee fiy price which is
deemed bv them Just compensation for the
articles furnished, and inform the citizens what
tuls price is, 50 that each may know before
delivery what price 10 to be paid for the articles
furnished.
Let this committee make arrangements for
thl transportation Of the supplies to some con
Neuicnt depot after consultation with the officer
who is to receive them.
Let the committee make delivery of the sup
IllUs on receiving payment of the price, and
assume the duty Of paying 1t over to the citizens
Who have furnished the supplies.
Is. Where the duty Of the committee Is per
formed in any town or city at which there may
he aquartermastcr or Commissary, no further
Huil may bC required OF them than to deliver
rr the officer list Of the names Of the citizens
Nd Of the supplies which each is ready to
turuith, and the price fixed; whereupon the
oHicer will himself gather the supplies and make
plvMeut.
l. Where the supplies are furnished in
he country the cost Of transportation TO the
depot will be paid by the Government in addi
ucn TO the price fixed by the committee.
3. As this appeal is made to the people fol
Inc sCnUtit Of our brave defenders now in tht
Frmy, the department relies with confidence OF
the patriotism Of the people that no more than
'ust compensation would be fixed by the CON.
mIttCe, nor accepted by those whose chief mo,
i've will be TO aid their country, and not tc
make undue gains out the needs of our noble
soldiers. JAMES A SEDDoH,

The linton League, Of New YorE.

On Wednesday of last week, tho Mayor re-.
ceved an invitation from the Union League OF
New York city TO our city authorities to attend
grand mass meeting In New York city to-day,
at O'Clock p. IN. There being no meeting of
the City Councils until after the mass meeting
will have taken place. the Boards will not be
able to take action, as a body, upon the invita-
tion. The resolutions of the League, accom-
panying the invitation, are so concise and ad-
mirablU that we print them for the Information
Of all:
l. ReSolped, That It is the duty of every Citi!
zen to unite in all proper efforts to preserve and
perpctuate the Union In accordance with the
Constitution.
2. Resolved, That the conduct of disafleCted
persons, claiming to he citizens Of the United
States, yet jealous In their attempts to embar.
rass and impede the action of the legally con.
stituted authorities, and in the uttGranCC Of
reasonable sentiments, deserves, and should
receive, the condemnation Of every loyal citi-
zen.
8. Resolved, That the loyal people of New
York, hereby pledge their fortunes, their in
nuenCe and their honor, TO tho support Of
the national authority In every vigorous
and determined effort, by force of arms, on SEA
or land, to secure a complete and final suppress
sion Of the causeCss and atrociOus instruction
which now desolatos our country.
4. Resolved, That the Army and Navy of the
United States owe their undivided allegiance to
the Constitution they have sworn to support
and defend, and that no soldier or sailor can
rightfully hesitate In his obedience to tho com
mands Of suporors In rank, whose authority is
derived from the Government of the Nation.
,. ReSolUcd, That every citizen owes allGgi-
anCe to the Government, and he who denies Its
authority, or fails in his duty to uphold the
honor of its flag, is an abettor Of treason, and
should suffer the penalty due to his crime.
O. ReSOlDcd, That this meeting, under solemn
convictions of duty, and in a firm reliance on
the Justice of that Providence which guides and
guards governments aud peoples, docs hereby
resolve itself into a Loyal League of Union
Citizens, pledged to an unconditional support
of the Government In all It's constitutional ef-
forts to suppress the rebellion, and an uncom-
promising opposition to treason in whatever
form 1t appears.

(From the Richmond sentinel, April I5.l
The telegraph brings us news of Wheeler
operations in Tennessee, in his character OF
general superintendent of the railroads In that
State and Kentucky, and master of transporta-
ton for ROsecrans. He has been altering the
schedule, &c, on two roads iu Rosey's rear, no
doubt TO his great disgust.
We have reports also that Van Dorm has had
Il tight at Franklin, which seemed to have been
marked by huCtuatng aud not very prosperous
fortunes. Van Dorm is a lighting man, but does
not aiwdyS triR. We do not imagine that the
affair was an important one. Franklin is nine
teen miles south of Nashville.
From Suffolk we learn, by way of Petersburg,
that LOngstreet's men were known to be within
Two miles Of Suffolk yesterday morning, and
that citizens who left the vicinity report that
firing commenced at halfpast five, and was
still progressing at nine O'Clock, when the in.
iOrmants passed out of hearing. The forces OF
the enemy at Suffolk are variousIy stated 1t
ia probable that Longstreet, who Is known to
have been advancing on them, attacked them
Yesterday morning.

that there was fighting yesterday morning at

Late News from Rebel Newspnp,r,


The Richmond Enquirer Of the 10Th, has been
received and contains the following dispatshes:
FREDERICKSBURG, April i5.-Heavv firing
was heard up the river yesterday, which was
supposed TO be skirmshing about Kelly's ford,
between stuart's cavalry and those of the Yam
KEGS.
The cavalry pckets have all been withdrawn
from Port Royal to point up the river within
six miles Of town.
Last night large fires. as of conaagration,
were visible in the direction Of Aqua Greek.
Last evening there was good deal Of COM
motion in front.
THE FIGHT on THE UPPER RAPPAHANNoCK.
Railway intelligence makes out the fight on
tho RappahannOCk, on Tuesday, at Kelley's
Ford, in which tho enemy was repulsGd, after
five successive attempts to cross, with some
loss, extent not known, but slight on the Con-
fcderate side. On the same day demOnstra-
ton was made near GCrmanna and U. s. Ford,
but no engagement Is expected.
1t was believed that Hooker intended gen
Oral advance; but all remaining quiet on yes
terday, this impression abated. A report was
in circulation, based upon the statement of a
civilian from Fredericksburg, that general
advance was projected by the enemy, but that
large body of the troops, whose term of service
expires between the lst and 18th of May, re-
fused to obey orders, believing that II was the
object of the Commander Chief to force them
into a fight of desperation before the efficiency
Of the army should be impaired by emergencies
which would arise during that period.
The Richmond Sentinel of April 16 contains
the following dispatch;
CHATTANOOGA, April 14.-MajOr Dick Me-
Cam has captured another train on the Nash
vile and Chattanooga Railroad. He has de-
stroyed long wagon train.
1.-Two more gunboats and three transports
on the Cumberland river have been destroyed
