ing to his peculiar endowments ant
opportunities and in this sense nc
private act is without its public results
But what intolerable interference with
personal and domestic freedom, should
the officers Of law assume to correct
every departure from strict morality
should they, in other words, treat
every sin as a crime
"Mr. Mill, and William Won Hum.
boldt before him, have admirably
shown how essential it is to all the
great interests of humanity that each
man in the community should be left
free by the State to develop his indi-
vidual nature, wherever this develop
ment does not directly infringe upon
the rights of others. That which is
only indirectly injurious to other per-
sons in mans conduct is no proper
object Of Legislative interference. Let
this plain and Ineligible principle
once be violated, and we have no Sc
curity against the most odious forms
of search and espionage. Habitual
blasphemy and profanity may imply a
deeper degree of moral turpitude than
stealing; yet we punish the last of
fence, because it is an immediate injury
to society, while we affix no legal pen
alties to the first, because it operates
only indirectly and remotely to the
public detriment. The State may allow
a man TO ruin himself by his rices; for 1t
as far better he should hare this liberty of
determining rhat he thinks best for him.
self than thar the State should isterposs
IN purely personal and pirate concerns. -
But though the State may not come
between a man and the vicious habits
he chooses to form, it by no means
follows that he is to go down to de-
struction without an effort to save him.
Domestic and friendly remonstrance,
and the various motives which benev-
olent individuals or societies can bring
to bear upon him, may still be effec-
lively used. There is no danger that
they will cease while one spark of hu-
man love shall glow in human breast;
though there is danger (as experience
has shown) that these efforts may be
somewhat relaxed, when legislation
rather than charity is deemed the
great instrument Of reform. But this
mode, says the Legislative Committee
of 1855, has been tried and found 'in-
sufficient to remove this gigantic evil
Of intemperance. Does this mean any
thing more than that moral suasion,'
so called, is slow process ? Insult
cient it may have been to satisfy the
or the unreasonable expec-
tations of certain reformers, but its
work, though slower, we believe to
have been far more secure and radical.
We do not deny that legislation has
'omething to do in aiding the efforts of
hose who are laboring to suppress in
temperance. But ace do deny that ef-
'orts an the direction Of sumptuary aw
anftdiisq bit ultimate harm TO
frmed IN more recent times. The true
province of legislation is to remove all
obstacles to the freest development of
individual virtue; and where that is
adhered to, it will be the direct per-
sonal interest Of the citizen always to
strive for the well-being and the Sc
curity of the State.

A DEN OF RATTLEsNAxEs.-A party
of three gentleman recently went q
pigeon hunting, in the vicinity OF
Glasgow, Mo-, and when noon-time
came they seated themselves in the
shade Of huge pile Of rocks, near
the river, and proceeded to take
lunch. While thus engaged, their
curiosity was aroused by humming
noise, which appeared to issue from
the rocks. The patty proceeded to
Chamber up the huge heap, and were
near struck dumb at the sight which
presented itself. Below them was u
large, circular pit, and crawling, and
writhing, and twisting, were literally
hundreds of rattlesnakes. At sight
of the party the scaly reptiles COM
menced Kissing and sounding their
rattles in q threatening manner
Through q small hole in the rocks,
a score or moro of rattlers joined their
companions in the pit, and with a
long pole the hunters then closed the
and gathering together an
enormous pile Of twigs, leaves and
driftwood, they set fire to the heap
and tossed it into the pit.
The pit was about II feet deep, and
the snakes could not escape from the
fiery torture. They ran round and
round their stony prison, but had at
last to succumb 10 the destroying
element.

From the N. /. World.
Interferences with Personal Liberty

There are three ways in which the
"party founded on great moral ideas"
delights to assail the rights of freemen.
For years its Stewards and its STAN
tons assailed our personal liberties by
arbitrary and prosituted power They
rang their little bells and jingled the
keys of their bastiles, arrested citizens
without warrant, imprisoned them
without trial, killed hundreds by such
unlawful imprisonment, suppressed
newspapers, interdicted and suppress
sed freedom of speech, corrupted
elections by threats and frauds and
perverted their results by military
force; and, in short, trampled under
foot every provision of the bill of
rights which Jefferson and his COM
patriots caused to be inserted into the
federal Constitution as 'fetters against
doing evil which no honest govern
ment should Decline" and as "what
"the people are entitled to against ev-
cry government on earth"
For many years the protection
plunderers have assailed the equally
indisputable right of frcemen to trade
freely with one another and with all
the world. Protection which was for
merly advanced under the cover of
incidency to necessary revenue las if
it were not obvious that protection is
in the inverse ratio to revenue), is
now put forward as proper object
of national policy to be accomplished
for its own sake by unconstitutional
and oppressive national legislation;
and protected manufacturers have
long been growing rich on the spoils
thus plundered from the pockets Of
their fellow-citizens.
Of late the right Of freemen to drink
what they please has been assailed
by these same mem of the "party
founded on great moral IDEAS" They
have undertaken to give one religion
preference over another by enforcing
upon all the observance Of its holy
days; to deprive citizens of their prop
erty and the right to dispose of it,
without due process Of law; TO assist
the Deity in furnishing what they
deem sins in His sight, by making
them crimes in the eye Of the law,
although not crimes in any just or
legal sense, nor even sins; and by such
sumptuary and Sabbatarian legisla-
ton have thus, in this third manner,

THE RACES.
BY THE FAT CONTRIBUTOR.

The two leading races are the race
Of man called the human race, and
the horse race which some consider
mhuman. The Indian race is very
nearly run. A mill race or a race to
q "mill' occurs when prize fight is
announced. OF all the races that have
been upon the tapis recently, the black
race attracts the most of public atten-
ton. Congressman make speeches
upon it, clergymen preach upon it, and
Wendell Phillips is ready to bet his
money on it.
/ hatter myself that I know some
thing Of the horse race. had pas
sion for horse racing when a lad, and
used to run horses with a neighbor's
boy in Tompkins' lane. How wildly
do i recall my last race. rode the
governors grass fed mare, q sorrel
roam, if i remember correctly with
two white feet in the forehead. She
was little foundered in one eye, but,
with the exception Of something like
q watermelon on each knee, her intel
lect was unimpaired. She was sired
by Canal Horse, and id by every
one who drove her. Neighbor's boy
rode cream colored chestnut with a
spring halt to harness. On the home
stretch I was a neck and a half q

Tears, idle tears, know not what they mean
Tears from the depth Of some divine despair,
Rise in the heart and gather to the eyes,
In looking ON the happy autumn fields,
And thinking Of the days that are no more.
Fresh as the first beam glittering on q sail
That brings our friends up from the outer world
Sad rs the last that reddens over one
That sinks with all We love below the verge,
So sad, 50 fresh the days that are no more
All. sad and strange as in dark summer dawns
The earliest pipe Of half awakened birds
To dying ears, when unto dying eyes
slowly grows glmmsring square.
10 sad, 50 strange the days that are no more.
Dear as remembered kisses after death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy fsigned
)n lips that are for others; deep as love,
Deep rs first love, and Wild with all regret,
Death In Life, the days that are no more.
