The Last Law Relating to slavery.

To the careless reader of the report Of
Congressional proceedings of Saturday it
might have appeared singular that Mr. Sum
saer should initiate movement for the repeal
of law which forbids the importation OF
slaves into States where slavery does not ex
ist, and that Garret Davis of Kentucky should
object. But the mystery is cleared up "nen
Mr.. Sumner explains that the law WHICH nc
wants repealed is the last on the stdt"te ooo6 %
the Republic that refers to the detu'ect snS''tu-
ton of american Slavery.
That is a very good eight years work for
.he Abolitionist-a mighty eight years work.
Slavery not only abolished, but torn out by the
rootsi The faithful Abolitionist is not content
till the whole house is purified and disinfected
after the patient has recovered from the terri
that can even remind the world that slavery
once existed is extirpated.
Sometimes reformers get impatient with
the slow progress of events and become un-
reasonably Respondent. They think the
world is standing still or going back, because
it doesn't keep pace with the lightning speed
Of their thought Yet let them have been
told in the spri ng of 1861 that within the next
eight wears three great constitutional changes,
all radical, all in the interest of liberty and all
OF transeendent Importance, would receive the
sanction Of two thirds of the American Con-
gress, they would have been as much astound-
ed as any one. Yet here is the record: First,
the thirteenth amendment, securing the abo
lition Of slavery and ratified by three-fourths
of all the States: Second the fourteenth
amendment, securing civil rights to all the
people by defining citizenship, and political
rights indirectly, by Furnishing States deny
ing them to any class with loss of represen-
tation, also ratified by three fourths of all the
States; third, the fifteenth amendment, fully
securing political rights to all citizens, adopt
ed by Congress and already ratified by nearly
a score of States
The changes in the organic law, supplement-
ed by the civil rights bill, the Freedmen's
Bureau bill, the laws wiping out all vestiges of
the ancient wrong from the statutes Of the
territories and the District of Columbia, con-
stitute together benefcent work which is
unprecedented for the short space of time
in which it was completed, which will
excite the gratitude and respect of the people
of this generation for the men who have
accomplished it and which through all the
ages will be the theme of the wondering eulo-
gies of reformers and philanthropists.

Col. Lanes ExPLANATIoN.-We publish
herewith note from Col. T. S. Lang, Senator
from Kennebec County in the last Legislature,
in which he explains the misapprehension
which led to the publication of a card in the
Riverside Echo by Joshua Nye, Esq. To any
one who knows Mr.. Lang-and the people Of
Maine do know him quite generally-it is un-
necessary to explain that his statements are
worthy of the most implicit credence. He is
gentleman who is utterly incapable of tals-
fcation, and we doubt if the public needed
to be assured that mistake and not an un-
truth was at the bottom of the mystery al
luded to in Mr.. Nye's letter.

SENATOR EDMUNDs and his associates ON
the committee to investigate the affairs OF the
Printing Bureau of the Treasury Department.
after eighteen months hard labor and envesti-
eating the history of every dollar in the De
partment since the war, have been able to find
no other evidence OF fraud than gross careless
ness in keeping the books and records Of the
different bureaus This is not half so bad as
many people were prepared to learn.

AMUsEMENTs.-Last evening in addition to
her wonderful feats on the velocipede, Miss
Carrie A. Moore exhibited her powers as a
skater on parlor skates We do not wonder
she has gained the reputation of the champion,
for not only does she display a wonderful
knowledge of the science but her movements
are particularly graceful Messrs. Smith and
Williams performed number of most difficult
oscscutur acts, calling forth great applaase.---
Hadley & Co. had packed house last night
at Deering Hail. The performances created
much applause, and the recipients of the fur
nitlre and other prizes were envied their good
fortune by the less lucky ones, who have deter
mined to try again tonight.

a first class mill in all its appointments-90 by
100 feet in size-and will contain gang, single

ing capacity will be equal to eight millions of
lumber from the log, besides the work done by
the smallest machines-lath, shingle, clap
hoard &C., with good planer, which they will
mt it. Such a mill will give employment to
from sixty to eighty men.

REMARKABLE ACCIDENT AT THE PORTLAND
CoMPANY's Works. George Dean and Thorn
as Rowan, engaged in repairing one of the
chimneys at the Portland Company's Works,
between four and five o'clock yesterday after
noon, fell to the bottom of the chimney on the
inside, distance Of seventy feet, in conse-
quence of the breaking of rope. Rowan had
several ribs broken, and Dean was severely
bruised. The escape of the two men from in
slant death was very remarkable. but we un-
derstand that neither of them was seriously
injured. The remarkable character of the ac-
cident may be appreciated when it is stated
that they both fell upon pile of bricks at the
bottom of the chimney.
