THE GOLD MANIA.

The Idaho fever RACES hercely IN
this section of Iowa, the last call tor
100000 men havin g no tendency as yet
to abate it's violence. We do not mean
to Intimate that those that arc going
universally do so to cvade the horrors
cf Consumption. Such IS not the fact.
Yet that the unsettled state Of our ma
.innal affairs and the probability that
our citizens may be driven like bu!locks
to the slaughter pens Of the South, is
driving them by scores all over the
country to this course, we positively
know. Many of them believe as we do,
that Idaho is most unmlstakable
humbug, but they reason thus: u can
make living there, will be free from
CONSUMPTION, and why not sacrifice
comfort and business, instead of re-
naming to be dragged to the butcher
stalls in the South" Our own obser-
walton teaches that of the vast multi
tudes performing pilgrimage to the
land of Ophir, majority of them, had
they suffered the privatlon and toll
voluntarily at their several homes that
we're forced upon them in the gold re-
gicns, they would have been infinitely
better off. Few of the vast throng
have ever succeeded in securing even
enough to enable them to return, few
or still still competence, while here
aud there one has male fortune. The
cases of the thousands are neve' men,
roned to induce emigration; but in
stead the isolated cases upon whom
fortune has smiled.
Judge Eoyt of St, Paul has just re
turned from the Bannock Mines, Idaho
Territory, and writes letter to the
St. Paul papers: lie says the mines
on Solomon River are exhausted, and
little IS being done at Bannock CIT y,
the mines having been deserted for
those Of Virginia City. lie further
asserts that the miuing reports from
that quarter have been greatly exaggs-
rated, and that most Of the fortunes
.made has been from successful trading
with the miners. The people of the
States he AYERS can safely discount
the reports sent home from the mi
Ling districts. In nearly every in
stance he says Spectator can be
found at the bottom if not as the orr 81
nator Of the report.
lie has been there through TIE en-,
tire excitement, has been engaged in
'srade and made handsome profit, but
the fortunes nude IN mining he posi-
lively asserts are cxagserations

THE ARCH REBEL.

TIE most spacious argument of the
enemies of American nationality and pro-
Eress is, that as Slavery is g State institu-
tion the nation hA5n right to meddle with
it; or as one of them istely expresses it
"If they Tthe Slave States abolished
Slavery, wei; if not, the bond Of federation
Iby which phrase the Consultation of the
United States is described did not make
US any more responsible in the eye OF
Heaven for Slavery IN Virginia, than our
commercial treaties with BrRgii for its eX-
issence there
This view of the Union as Confederscy,
and the Constitution as s treaty, We DO
not here discuss. But the entire and will
ful Eallacy of the Implication concerning
national interference With Slavery is very
easily exposed. The whole truth lies in
this nutshell, that when Slavery found it

the nation. 1t was always praunEr as its

thea it will appear that it was not until
the State system of Slavery destroyed the

that Slavery shall die the death.
