Ml 120 WASHINGTON. D. C. i For the Nationxl Era. LOVE, YOUTH, AND HOPE.

Love Youth, and Hope, agreed one night, i When earik 2nd all the air ant bright. To sail upon the tea; Their guide, the waves that shone before them? Their light, the heavens that brighten o'er then? How gaily went the three For them each wave was moonlight gilded. For them each rock was coral builded, A glory crowned the straud; The mermaids, in their crystal caves, Heard their low laughter through the waves. Lifting the golden sand. As drifting under genial skies, Only into each other's eyes Looked Youth and Love the while But.

musing, hope averted hers, And ojtly sought the silent stars, And only knew their smile. Now gazing on the heaven above, Now glancing with an equal love Upon the heaven below Ol had the upprr light alone Upon her lifted temples shone. So had it shone there now! leaning, she strove to grasp the tide Breaking in silence at her side; leaning, alas! too far; Bewildered by the changeful gleam That danced and dazzled in the stream, She sank air idst the stars. Love saw her bright hair gild the wave, Love aprang in fatal haste to save; The chill wave swept the shore. Two lives, two lamps, in that dark river, Went out forever and forever, To he re-lit no mote.

And Youth went on his way alone; The lights that all around him shone. Still as be. turned, grew dark. Alas the heart, where'er it he, When Love and Hope go down at sea. And Youth atill guides the bark I VAX.

THE SOUTHERN PRESS. From the Richmond (Va Enquirer, July 11. THE INSTRUCTIONS OF GOVERNOR WALKER. We publish below the instructions of the President of the United States to Governor Walker. We approve of them cordially and in every particular, and we wish no better platform from which to defend the Administration, from whatever Quarter the assaults on mo If the whole public life of James Buchanan did not furnish conclusive and evidence of his deeire to maintain the Consttution, and to protect the rights of all, these instructions would at once satisfy us of the rectitude of his intentions.

Whilst no State has done more than Virginia to defend the interests of the South, yet it is gratifying to remember that, when satisfied of the honesty and integrity of an Administration, her Democracy have never given encouragement to the dangerous and frequently impracticable ultraisms of South Carolina and other extreme Southern States. When she cast her vote for James Buchanan, and hailed his election as a temporary guarantee of the safety of our institutions, she did not expect bim to enlist as a partisan in the Kansas controversy which was menacing the perpetuity of the Union. He was supported and elected by the national Democracy, not for the purpose of continuing the agitation of the Slavery question, but for the purpose of healing the gaping wounds from which the life-blocd of national harmony was rapidly ebbing. Those who expected James Buchanan to enlist for long and conflict under either the colors of Jim "Lane or Stringfellow, have, of course, been disappointed. Those to whom the perpetual agitation of Slavery was more pleasant than peace and prosperity, have nothing to hope for from the present Administra tion.

There is no hone fop tTiramlato North or Sooth, in the ranks of the National Democracy. When the President surrounded himself by national, Union-loving statesmen, he called to his aid men in whose hands the interests of the South are as secure as they would be in those who are now rejoicing in a sectional and salamander atmosphere of fire and flame. The instructions to Governor Walker brpathe nothing but conciliation and harmony. They embody, they are the essence cf all and of every argument which baa ever been made, in Congress or on the stamp, in favor of the Kansas bill. The Administration desires that the people ok Kansas shall, without foreign interference of any kind, be allowed to decide upon their organic law in their own way.

No sounder doctrine of States Rights than this was ever proclaimed. It is that for which Calhoun, Upshur, and all the lamented leaders of the States Rights party would have contended, were they now living. To prevent foreign interference with the citizens of Kansas, to prevent all interlopers from New England and Missouri from browbeating the legal voters, the President in his instructions authorizes and instructs Governor Walker to call out the military. All that Walker, all that the Administration desire is, that the people of Kansas may have the same right which other States have, of saying whether they approve or disapprove of their own Constitution. To deny this right to the people of a State who desire it would be the worst of despotism.

The people of Kansas, or our own friends there, the Pro-Slavery party. Jut re, in Convention, with one dissenting voice, desired that the Constitution should be submitted. After such an expression of opinion, what particular doctrine of the new States right party sanctions the interference of Georgia or Mis sissippi with Kansas? There are ten thousand registered voters in Kansas. Of that number, more thau two thousand voted at the late elec tion of members of the proposed Constitutional Convention. The election occurred at a lime -when apathy or the fever of speculation prevented eight thousand registered voters from exercising the right of suffrage.

Nor is it to be supposed that the people of a new and wild Territory, before the late election, devoted much time to the consideration of the character of the Constitution which the Convention may construct. So jealously do the citizens of the oldest States guard the powers which they give to the members of a Constitutional Convention, that not content with obtaining from the candidates a full expression of opinion, during the long canvass which precedes an election, of all questions relating to the proposed changes of the organic law, they require their work, when completed, to be submitted to the people, at the polls. This the Virginia people have twice required this the people of other States have required, without one dissenting voice. If there are always good reasons for this course in the old States, where nearly all the voters usually vote at the election cf delegates, the reasons for it are imperative in a new Territory or State, especially where but two thousand out of ten thousand voters took sufficient interest in the election to vote. Now, it is perfectly obvious that no Constitution will be acceptable to the people of Kansas, unless it is submitted to the people.

So many frauds have been committed there, that the voters place no confidence in their legislative bodies in that territory. But the opponents of the National Democracy in the Southern States, those who refupe to believe in the integrity of the Northern Democracy, in spite of their thousand sacrifices in our behalf, charge that the preposition to submit the Constitution to the people of Kansas conceals a design upon the part of Walker to make Kansas a free State. The Pro Slavery party of Kansas, however, who have heretofore watched their Governors with lynx-like vigilance, repudiate this charge, and endorse Walker and the Administration. We do not imagine that the most rabid of the secessionists are yet prepared to charge home upon James Buchanan and his Cabinet a deliberate design to abolitionize Kansas. They have not yet worked themselves up to that state of frenzy, although the dog-days of summer may develop the wildest stages of their malady.

The Pre-Slavery voters in Kansas having no fears of the result of a popular vote, and no body yet being exactly prepared to excom municate Mr. Buchanan and his Cabinet as traitors, what serious consequence is likely to flow from the instructions of the Administration to Gov. Walker? Unless opponents of the Administration i know more about Kansas affairs than the Prof Slavery party of that Territory, nothing but a full expression of the votera of Kansas is deair- I ed, either for or against the Constitution that is all. The fear of aid societies and Yankee emigrants forcing and controlling the elections comes too late. Rccder, Shannon, and Geary, satraps" of the late have, according to the admissions of Atcnison and others, settled the fate of Kansas.

What we now ask is, that, for the sake of the sacred pledges of the Democratic party to the nation, the spirit of the Kansas-Nebraska act may be fairly and honestly carried out. Recurring to the instructions of the Administration to Walker, we feel assured that the Democracy of the South will sustain the Administration. About Virginia we have no doubt. The conservative, clear-headed Democracy of this State have never deserted a Democratic President because, in the discharge of his high duties, he refused to play the part of a partisan leader. Their faith iu the wisdom and integrity of James Buchanan, who has been the friend of the South through life, cannot be shaken by idle and groundless denunciations.

The extremists and impracticables of the extreme Southern States must, as heretofore, learn wisdom and moderation from Virginia. Self-reliant, and justly proud of their fifty-seven years unbroken triumph, the Virgiuin Democracy do cot usually repair to the banks of the Mississippi for instruction. The President's Instructions to Governor Walker, through the Secretary of State. The state of things in Kansas has caused the President great solicitude. He is very anxious for the nermanent rnntinnanoe of tK? nnhUo peace, acd for the restoration of pnblic confidence, so that the people of that Territory may enjoy tranquillity and the exercise cf all the rights which justly belong to them.

This effected, a career of prosperity would be opened in consequence of the natural advantages of the' not exceeded by any other region in our extensive territory. From causes not necessary to recapitulate, difficulties have existed there, occasioning great uneasiness everywhere, and threatening the most disastrous consequences. It is believed that firmness and discretion in the administration of the Territorial Government will go far towards the permanent establishment of the peace which now prevails there, and it is hoped will prevent its future disturbance. Iu seeking to procure the services of a citizen qualified to undertake these responsible duties with a prospect of success, the President was gratified to learn, when application was made to you, that you were willing to accept the office of Governor of Kansas, and to devote yourself to the execution of its important duties. In this feeling he is confident that the country will participate, and will find in your distinguished public services, and in the high positions you have so ably filled, an assurance that the measures you adopt will be well calculated to assert the authority of the law.

The President was desirous that you should proceed immediately to Kansas, and enter upon the executive duties. Hut, as you had informed him in your letter of acceptance that circumstances beyond your control would render it impossible for ycu to leave here before the second Monday of May next, he assents to this delay, and trusts that, immediately thereafter, you will proceed to your government, and enter upon your duties. And the President the more readily assents to this arrangement, because, in the mean time. T. P.

Stanton, will accept the office of Secretary of the Territory, and, in your absence, will be vested with all the powers of the Executive. lie will" immediately set out for Kansas. Iu accepting the office, he has been animated by the same motives which have prompted you to make a sacrifice to the public interest, and he will command the confidence of the country by his well known services and experience, and by his qualifications for the position. Commissions for yourself and for him accompany these instructions. There are two great objects connected with the present excitement growing out of the affairs of Kansas, and the attainment of which will bring it to a speedy termination.

These 1- 1 .1 wcit vitoi ij auu Buuumcuy Dittkvu III uie jr remdent's recent inaugural address, and I embody the paragraphs in this communication, asking your especial attention to them. It is declared in that instrument to be the imperative and indispensable duty of the Government of the United States to secure to every resident inhabitant the free and independent expression of his opinion by his vote. This sacred right of each individual must be preserved and that being accomplished, nothing can be fairer than to leave the people of a Territory, free from all foreign interference, to decide their own destiuy for themselves, subject only to the Constitution of the United States." From the Washington Union, July 7. THE POLICY OF THE ADMINISTRATION TOWARDS GOVERNOR WALKER DEFINED. We have witnessed with unfeigned regret the spirit in which nearly the whole Southern press has received and treated the inaugural address of Gov.

Walker, of Kansas. From the Know Nothing opposition press we had little else to expect; but it is rather more serious to see that the Democratic press are by no means unanimous in the view they take of his conduct. It is a still more important fact, that, two Democratic State in Georgia and one in taken strong exceptions to certain expressions in Gov. Walker's inaugural address. The Georgia Convention goes further, and concludes its censure by expressing the belief that he will be iemoved.

It is natural enough that this state of things should afford a great deal of malicious pleasure to Northern Abolitionists as well as to Southern Know Nothings. They hunt in couples, and have a common political interest in pulling down the only party which defends the Constitution at all points. The course which we are quite sure Mr. Buchanan will take in dealing with the whole Kansas affair is a very plain one. His path is so clearly marked out by principle, that a states man with the thousandth part of his sagacity coufd not fail to see it.

That he would wilfully turn aside from what he knows to be his duty, is a slander on his character which we think his worst enemy is not base enough to utter. He will not forfeit the high place to which his past life entitles him in the history of his country by an act of treachery to the principles which carried him into office. The American People were never safer than they are at this moment in relying on the wisdom and integrity of their Chief Magistrate. The Georgia resolutions assail Gov. Walker on two points: 1.

He advocated the submission of the Constitution to a direct vote of the peo pie and 2. He furnished arguments in favor of making Kansas a free State. On both these points we have some opinions which we propose to record now and here. We do not uuderstand our Georgia friends to find fault with the general doctrine that the people of Kansas have the power to decide the question of Slavery for themselves, by inserting in their Constitution whatever provision on that subject they think proper. This is a proposition which no man can deny, and call himself a Democrat, or friend of the Constitution and laws.

It was the Shibboleth of the party in the canvass of 1856, as it had been in many a contest before that. It was embodied in the Compromise measures of it was made part of the Kansas-Nebraska bill itself; it was incorporated in the Cincinnati platform; the candidates of the party were pledged to it; the speakers and writers of the party pleaded for it, and it was unanimously adopted by the masses cf the party at the polls. Beside all this, the I Supreme Court have established it as the law of the land, by demonstrating that the power of deciding upon the subject of Slavery does not exist anywhere else. Even if we had not these overwhelming authorities to back it were proper to reargue upon original principles a question that has been settled by Congress, assented to by the people, and sanctioned by the solemn judgment of the highest judicial tribunal in the we think it would require but little dialectic skill to show the justice and necessity ot it so plainly, that no one could deny it who has sense enough to know his right hand from his left. The contrary doctrine is the exclusive property of our Northern Anti-Slavery opponents.

If Kansas shall come to Congress and ask for admission, with a Consitution made in pursu auce of legal authority not inconsistent with the fundamental law of the Union, and approved by her own people, all sound men will say admit her. The Abolitionists alone would throw her Constitution back into her face, if its provisions on the subject of Slavery did not please them. They alone would say to her people, You have made a Constitution which suits 9 THE NATIC your own wants and wishes, but have other views, and we are your masters. You must disregard your own opinions, conform wholly to ours." Those who tr-lly believe that Congress ought to speak li have no reason for it but the insane hatre and prejudice against Southern men with lif-h they are saturated from the crown to the Will Mr. Buchanan, in any ev nt, take the Abolition side of the question? Will he be found arraying his power and indrehce his own sense of right and duty Aid against ustice, reason, the law, and the institution Would he lend his brow to the shai le With which such an act must blacken it forevc if Would he sell the mighty space of his larg honors for anything that his weak and imp- ht enemies might offer? No; the Democracy whole country, North and South, have true to him, and he will be true to them.

We repeat, that the Constitute of Kansas most come from the people of Kf eras. Other power to make such an instrumec 1 -hers is not under Heaven. But the Georgia Convention, denying this great principle, seems to that the Constitution of Kansas ought not submitted to a direct vote of the people in primary capacity. We admit that this is all cases a sine qua non. It is a fair presumption (if there be no circumstances to itV that a i I they can also Bay what classes persons shall be counted as being part of tb i people- The Convention that framed the dferal' Constitution exercised this power when referred to their constituents, (the prescribed that their approbation should l'? jbiven or withheld by State Conventions.

But there is another against the Governor of Kansas. He has ironed the Free State side of the question. all the part of the inaugural on whic' his charge is based.

Here it is And, let me ask you, whs I possible good has been accomplished by a tilling in Congress, and in Presidential conf ic the Slavery question Has it emancipate Isingle slave, or improved their condition 'is it made a single State free, where Slavery o' isrwise would have existed Has it accele' ai id -the disappearance of Slavery from tht northern of the slaveholding States, or sAJC any practical good whatever 13? fellow-citizens nothing but unmitigated if has already ensued, with disasters still mpending for the future, as a consequence (is agitation. There is a law more powe'Tu than the legislation of potent tb in passion or muai ultimately teiermine tne location of Slavery in this ry it is the isothermal line it is the law Wf the thermometer, of latitude or altitude, re Ju ating climate, labor, and productions, and, a 6 consequence, profit aud loss. Thus, even uf the mountain heights of the tropics, Slave can no more exist than in northern latitudes, because it is unprofitable, being unsuited constitution of the sable race transplante i tiere from the equatorial heats of Africa. Wf-y is it that, in the Union, Slavery recedes frt the North and progresses South Is it this great climate law now operating for or against Slavery in Kansas? If on the elevated oUins of Kansas, stretching to the base American the Rocky and including their eastern crest, crowned ivith perpetual from which sweep over te? open prairies those chilling blasts, reducing the average range of the thermometer here lo a temperature nearly as low as that of New England, should render Slavery unprofitable because unsuited to the tropical constitut on of the negro race, the law above referred must ultimately determine that question here and can be no more controlled by the legisla -ion of man than any other moral or physical of the Almighty. Especially must this law oper Ue with irresistible force in this couutry, whe'e number of slaves is limited, and cannot be increased by importation, where many mil of acres of sugar and cotton lands are bmII uncultivated aud, from the ever-augmeutingvdemand, exceeding the supply, the price of tt great staples has nearly doubled, demanl ing vastly more slave labor for their productio a.

44 If, from the operation of these causes, Slavery should not exist here, trust it by no means follows that Kansas hould become a State controlled by the treaB and fanaticism of Abolition. She has, in ij event, certain constitutional duties to perfi tm. to her sister States, aud especially to her immediate neighbor the slaveholding Me of Missouri. Though that great Stale, rivers and railroads, must flow to a our trade ana intercourse, our imports ina exports. Our entire eastern front is upon her border; from Missouri come a great numb of her citizens even the farms of the two St tea are cut by the line of State boundary, part i i Kansas, part in Missouri; her citizens meet us in daily intercuurse and that Kansas sb huh? become hostile to Missouri, an asylum fo her fugitive slaves, or a propagandist of abolition treason, would be alike inexpedient and unjust, and fatal to the continuance of th.

American Union. In any event, then, I trust tf St the Constitution of Kansas will contain such 'lautes as will forever Becure to the State of It isscuri the faithful performance of all constitr tiosal guaranties, not only by Federal but by State authority, and the supremacy within our lii tits of the authority of the Supreme Court of Ihe United States )NAL ERA: WASHH on all constitutional questions be firmly established." When we take these paragraphs, and compress the meaning of them into short sentences, they amount to this The question of Slavery has always been, and always will be, settled by oartiiin lawn nf nature, which are ahnva all Kn. man legislation. If those Iewb of nature shall so operate upon Kansas as to make her a Free State, all legislation in the other direction will be vain. This was rather expressing a truism than making an argument.

The propriety, however, and timeliness, of ottering such a truism then and there, are subjects on which we affirm nothing and deny nothing. We are too far away, and know too little of the circumstances with which he was surrounded, to be a competent judge of his conduct in a matter so nice as this. But there are certain considerations which will insure Gov. Walker a just if not a kind judgment from every fair-minded man, especially in the South. A Southern man himself, he has been a uniform and consistent champion of Southern rights.

The extremest men of that section pressed him upon Mr. Buchanan for the highest place in his Cabinet. He is, besides, an able, tar seeing, and sagacious statesman, as little likely as any other in the country to impale himself upon a point of mere prudence. This alone might raise a presumption that he neither did harm nor intended any to Southern interests. But when we see, in addition to this, that ho is actively co-operating with the Democratic party in Kansas, including all the Pro-Slavery men in the Territory; when we find his whole course sustained by the Pro Slavery presses there; when We hear of no complaint whatever from the quarter whence complaint ought to come, if there were any canae for it.

wn nrn onnatrivinAfi to think ttiat. I Convention of delegates chosen ny the people will act in accordance with the wij their constituents. When, therefore, there to serious dispute upon the Constitution, eitbet i the Convention or among the people, the flower of the delegates alone may put it in op Motion. But such is not the case in Kansas. most violent struggle this country ever upon the most important issue which the is to determine, has been going on ere for several years, between parties so ever balanced that both claim the majority, and- I hostile to one another that numerous lives been lost in the contest.

Under these circumstances, tbei i can be no such thing as ascertaining clear-y ind without doubt the will of the people, in a if way, except by their own direct expression of it at the polls. A Constitution not subjected tM- test, no matter what it contains, will )e acknowledged by its opponents to be ly king but a fraud. A plausible color might 1 jiven to this assertion by the argument that t) members of the Convention could have no ive for refusing to submit their work to theik onstituents, except a consciousness that the is jority would condemn it. We confess that should find some difficulty in answering this- What other motive could they have? We do most devoutly believe a unless the Constitution of Kansas besubmitye to a direct vote of the people, the unhapt controversy which has heretofore raged in tha 1 erritory will be prolonged for an indefinite tim 11 come. We are equally well convinced that "fi will of the majority, whether it be for or aiist Slavery, will finally triumph, though it tray be after years of strife, disastrous to the interest of the country, and dangerous, it oay be, to the peace and Bafety of the whole pan.

Again: This movement of the Territorial authorities to form a Constitution i made, not in the regular way, in pursuance an enabling and authorizing act of Congre's, but in the mere motion of the Territorial Le 'islature itself. Nay, it has been begun and carried on in the teeth of a refusal by Congress pass such an act. This irregularity is not There are other cases in which it was over loked. But it can be waived only in considers ion the fact that the people have expressed will in unmistakable language. If we dif with the legal forms of proceeding, we riust have the substance.

We think, for these reasons, at ov. Walker, in advocating a submission Constitution to a vote of the people, act' wisdom and justice, and followed only, lina of policy which promises to settle this exed question either rightly or satisfactorily. this respect, at least, he has done nothing Jbrthy of death or bonds. But who are the people? iat shall be the qualifications of a voter on tl i Constitution, when it comes to be submitted Wet answer, that this is for the Convention settle. Those who think that the Convention might declare the Constitution in full force, vlrtt-e of their own will, can hardly deny that "hey append to it a condition requirin it be first aDnroved hv the nennle.

If t.W tr t.hia the Georgia and Mississippi Democracy hare pronounced their judgment rather hastily. Governor Walker isaSonthern man; he has been sent ont by an Administration pledged to the defence of Southern rights: he is surrounded by a corps of officers, most of them from the South, and every one of them sound national men; he was instructed to regard the territorial authorities as legal, and sustain them against the rebellion of the Topeka Abolitionists he is acting in concert with the friends of the South, and gallantly fighting their enemies. We cannot help but think that such a man, so sent, bo instructed, so surrounded, and so acting, is entitled to sympathy, comfort, and aid, from the South, whenever they can be given with a conscientious regard to truth. With such a battle raging in his front, it was harsh and nngracious to open this fire on his rear. THE NORTHERN PRESS.

From the N. Y. Evening Post. THE TURN OF THE TIDE. We presume we do not attach too much importance to an article which we copy to day from the Washington Union, when we infer from it a determination on the part of the Federal Administration to sustain Gov.

Walker in Kansas, and treat it as a pledge that the people of that Territory shall have an opportunity of passing upon the Constitution under which they are to live. It bears internal evidence of having been written by authority, and seems to be so construed uniformly by the cognoscenti at Washington. This article, assuming it to be authorized by the Government, marks an era in the political history of the country it i9 the first tribute of respect to the Anti Slavery sentiment of the Northern States which has come from the Federal Executive for the last twenty years. After a contest conducted with great bitterness, and, so far as the North was concerned, under every imaginable disadvantage, we have to-day to record the very first act of any Federal Administration Wearing an aspect of resistance to the Pro-Slavery policy of the Southern Oligarchy. The quietus which General Jackson gave to the Nullifiers of 1836, though a blow to the same political interest as that which has had thq control of the Government for the last few years, arose upon altogether a different issue, and t.ViarafrtrA Hnpa nAfc rlaoovwa fn Ka w.wu uvvo vivowk V) IV as an exception.

Mr. Buchanan and hia advisers, in the article to which we refer, have deliberately sounded a retreat from the ground which was occupied by the late Administration. They admit that the circumstances under which the late Legislative Government of Kansas was imposed upon its people were unpopular, and never could command their general obedience or respect; and in spite of the threats and denunciations of the Southern press, they recognise the necessity of giving the people of the Territory an opportunity of approving or of rejecting the Constitution which a Convention elected under that organization should provide. Such a submission to the popular voice was not provided for, nor even contemplated, so far as we can discern, by Congress. No such concession was ever dreamed of by the late Administration, who spared neither bribes nor blood to silence the speech and bind the hands of the Free State settlers, who sought at the ballot-box and with the press to keep slaves out of the Territory.

But we have had a Presidential election in the country lately, and a state of feeling has been revealed, which Mr. Buchanan, we begin to think, has had the good sense to profit by. He ha3 we the Government of this country cannot be conducted any longer under a Slavery-extension policy; that the nearest approach to it that our people will bear is a rigorous neutralitv. and for that he ia ateerinsr. To JT reach it, he will be obliged to take several steps back.

The first we have to-day the pleasure of recording. We hail the omen. May he select for his motto the words inscribed by the ancients upon the Pillars of Hercules, Plus Ultra. If so, he will be able to do what no President of late years has done, (and for an obvious reason,) he will lay down his office more popular and more respected than when he assumed it. But the question which will soon be in every man's mouth is, Will the President have the courage to meet and brave the assault which the policy here indicated is sure to bring upon him Nearly every leading Administration journal is committed against Walker's course; and most of them, such as the Charleston Mercury, the Richmond South, the Washington States, and the Georgia, Mississippi, and Louisiana presses, have very generally denounced it in terms which will compel them hereafter to occupy an attitude of hostility to the Governor, and to any party that sustains him.

Two State Legislatures have expressed similar opinions, and others may follow their example. Has the President the firmness necessary to stand to his colors, and risk a second dismemberment of his party? If not, he is ruined. If he has, the force of circumstances will give him one of the finest historical positions occupied by any President. In either case, whether he is or is not equal to the emergency, he is at least able to mark the change of current which has taken place, and to show to the future student of history when Slavery ceased to be protected by the Federal Government as national, and Freedom to be proscribed as Bectional. From the Iowa Citizen, July 1.

AGITATION DOES NO GOOD. And let me ask what possible trood has been accomplished by agitating in Congress and in Presidential conflicts the Slavery Gov. Walker's Inaugural. The agitation of a question like that of Slavery can do no injury. Truth fears no investigation.

It is the privilege of the people, and it is their duty also, to canvass and discuss every subject which affects, directly or remotely, the popular interests. Ever since the foundation of our Government, the question of Slavery has been agitated. This agitation has acquired greater vigor and intensity within the past twenty years; and this result has been produced simply from the fact, that enlightened public sentiment is becoming more and more opposed to every species of oppression. If evils are inflicted upon our nation by excitement upon this subject, they are justly attributable to the course pursued by the Democratic party. The passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Bill, and the consequent repeal of the Missouri Compromise, have intensified the spirit of discussion, until the entire body of the people have become participants in the excitement.

So long as Slavery was con' fined to the States in which it exists, and so long as it made no effort to overleap the boundaries of its own dominion, the public mind was comparatively calm and tranquil; but the moment it became an invader of tree territory, and proposed to establish Slavery upon soil that was consecrated to Freedom, the voice of the people was heard in opposition. We here affirm that the Democratic party are directly responsible for any and every evil which has grown out of the agitation of the Slavery question. They have shown themselves unwil tfGTON, D. JULY ling to permit Slavery to remain confined to its present limits and they have employed every power of the Government, within the last four years, to enlarge the area of human servitude. The great leaders of the Democratic party have covenanted with Slavery and the notorious fact is known and read of all men, that they have Bold themselves bodily to Southern factionists.

This is true of Douglas, of Pierce, of Buchanan, and of every other prominent leader of the party in the North. Do we desire evidence of this fact? If this is the case, evidence accumulates on every hand. The destruction of the constitutional at Border Ruffian invasions of the ballot-box? laboring to deprive citizens of the right of suffrage in an eager desire to establish Slavery in free bogus Legislatures and mercenary sheriffs? endorsing the Drineinle of Squatter Srwpreicm ty, in clear violation of constitutional indirectly countenancing polygamy and the grossest licentiousness in some of the principal ingredients of modern Democracy. It is true that som9 words have lost their original signification. This is especially applicable to the word Democracy." It has become so prostituted by the party which claims it as the name of their organization, that we consider it now the direct antithesis of its primitive definition.

Democracy, in accordance with the principles of its modern exponents, is synonymous with pro slaveryism and political corruption. Instead of advancing the interests of the people, it is waging a perpetual warfare Against those rights which are so truthfully fiefined in the Declaration of Independence. It contemplates the entire overthrow of liberty in America, and its insatiable ambition to do evil will never be gratified to its fullest extent, until a universal serfdom is established upon the continent. The reign of Douglas, the Administration of Pierce, and the present regal supremacy of Buchananism, are unmistakable evidences of the fact, that the entire American Government, in these latter days, is committed, body and soul, to the vindication of Slavery and Oppression. While this is the case, agitation upon the part of the freemen of the United States is neither censurable nor unpatriotic.

It is our duty, and the duty of every lover of free institutions in our country, to assist in rolling back the tide of misrule and anarchy that threatens to inundate the nation. While it is our fixed determination, as freemen, to repel every encroachment, of the slave power, and confine Slavery to its own legitimate premises, it is the unalterable resolution of the Democracy to extend the "peculiar institution" over every part oi the United Slates that is capable of maintaining a slave population. Kansas has been invaded by Administration Ruffians, and the provisions of the Kansas Bill have been applied, so far as the Douglas policy has inlluence, to every Territory of the United States. It is our purpose to continue the agitation of this question. Our vast Territories on the West are endangered with reference to servitude; i a r-icn nnuj in view kji into met, we win luiuii our ODllgations to our country, by warning our people against the invasion of Slavery.

A controversy on this subjectis not dangerous. The interests of the people will not suffer by a discussion, and, in despite of Gov. Walker and his proclamation, we intend to keep the subject before our readers, until they are thoroughly convinced of the impropriety of placing confidence in Democratic leaders. From the Newark (N. Weekly Mercury, July 9.

THE ADMINISTRATION ON KANSAS. The Washington Union has spoken out in a semi-official view of Gov. Walker's programme in Kansas, gingerly endorsing the same. It is understood that the article represents the views of Mr. Buchanan and his Cabinet, and this lends to it an importance which would not otherwise attach to it.

It is written with a desire to conciliate the opposition growing up in the South, and to show that Mr. Buchanan is perfectly true to them on all vital issues, and also to demonstrate that it is folly for the struggle to be continued in Kansas, and that Gov. Walker's course is the true one for the interests of the South. That we may not be accused of misrepresenting the spirit of the article, we ask our readers to carefully peruse the following extract: But there are certain considerations which will insure Gov. Walker a just if not a kind judgment from every fair minded man, especially in the South.

A Southern man himself, he has been a uniform and consistent champion of Southern rights. The exlremext men of that section pressed him upon Mr. Buchanan for the highest place in his Cabinet. He is, besides, an able, far-seeing, and sagacious statesman, as little likely as any other in the coun try to impale himself on a point of mere prudence. This alone might raise a presumption that he neither did harm nor intended any to Southern interests.

But when we see, in addition to this, that he is actively co-operating with the Democratic party in Kansas, including all the Pro-Slavery men in the Territory when we find his whole course sustained by the ProCI nsooj ttt Vi nn nrn arm ma a uiotcij pi too mnc nucu ucoi uu UUIL1plaint whatever from the quarter whence complaint ought to come, if there were any cause for it, we are constrained to think that the Georgia and Mississippi Democracy have pronounced their judgment rather hastily. Governor Walker is a Southern man; lit. has been sent out by an Administration pledged to the defence of Southern rights; he is surrounded by a corps of officers, most of them from the South, and every one of them sound national men he was instructed to regard the Territorial authorities as legal, and sustain them against the rebellion of the Topeka Abolitionists he is acting in concest with the friends of the South, and gallantly fghting their enemies. We cannot help but think that such a man, so sent, so instructed, bo surround ed and acting, is entitled to sympathy, comfort, and aid, from the South, whenever they can be given with a conscientious regard to truth. With such a battle raging in his front, it was harsh and ungracious to open this fire on his rear." Now, ws have not the slightest doubt but that the representations of the Union are entirely correct.

We believe that Gov. Walker went to Kansas the friend of the South, and that he ia now "acting with the friends of the South, and gallantly fighting their enemies;" but how does all this comport with the support which he receives from the New York Times How will that journal reconcile this official statement of Gov. Walker's designs and purposes with its very decided endorsal of his policy? We trust, too, that the Democratic press of the country will fully understand why the Free State men of Kansas, and the Republicans elsewhere, have distrusted Gov. Walker from the first. They too have regarded him in the light of an advocate of Southern institutions, and as engaged in a warfare against them.

We ought to hear no more about the determination of Gov. Walker to do equal and exact justice to all sides, for here is the organ of the Administration which appointed bim, claiming that he is acting in concert with the friends of the South, and gallantly fighting their enemies." From the 9t Ainhouy (Minnesota) Republican, of July 2. FUTURE POLITICS TT i wu yrzain wucu jaenry m. rwice WAS elected delegate to Congress by a plurality, but not by a majority, of the votes cast, the power of the Sham Democracy in Minnesota was broken. We then felt sure, and spoke confidently, of the ultimate and not remote success of the Republicans.

Last fall, the election for members of the Legislature showed a very i near balance in the relative strength of the parties. And now, in electing delegates to the 1 State Convention, with party lines more closely drawn than ever before, it appears that the Republicans tip the scale by a small but decisive majority. And it should be understood that, hitherto, several causes have operated greatly to the embarrassment of the Republicans, which causes will henceforth cease to exist. Federal patronage has always been against us; the dependence of the Territory upon the General Government for appropriations has held many minds in unworthy vassalage; an immense influence has been wielded by a host of officials i appointed at Washington the first settlers were mostly in sympathy with the Indian traders, who temporarily ruled the politics of the Territory, and who, being greatly in need of favors from the various departments at Washington, were generally violent partisans of the Administration, whether it went for Fugitive Hunting or for Nebraekality. Under the present apportionment, the first settled parts of the Territory east of the Mississippi, and comprising with Pembina the strong 23, 1857.

holds of the slave Pemcc-acy, though contain- ing but about one-sixth of the population, have more than one-third of the representation in both branches of the Legislature, and in the Constitutional Convention. But this monstrous inequality has been more than overpowered by the strength of Republican sentiment in the Territory. It is just three years since we drew up and circulated a call for the first Convention of Anti-Slavery men ever held in the Territory and it was not without difficulty that we collected enough names to give the movement even the appearance of a reality. And we I member how one of the Pro Slavery journals of the Territory congratulated itself that there were not more than half a dozen persona to be found who were fanatics on the subject of Slavery! The fanatics now sit in the throne of power; and they will frame a Constitution under which Isaac Atwater may rejoice to find himself se- cure in his unalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." On the 26th of July, 1855, the Republicans first made a nomination in Minnesota, amid the jeers, but ill-concealed alarm, of the whole Hunker forces. In less than two years from that date, notwithstanding the above disadvantages, and with but an imperfect organization, they are masters of the Territory It may not be pleasant for our anti-Republican friends to consider these things, but we hope, nevertheless, they will note the circumstance that, as the recent election returns show, their power is rapidly gliding away, even in those portions of the Territory where they have hitherto been strongest.

Take, for instance, the Stillwater district, where the Republicans are fairly in the field for the first time as Republicans, and where a change of 50 or 60 votes would have given them the victory. Or teke the Denton district, where, we believe, a Republican ticket was never before nominated; one Republican is elected, and the other would doubtless have been, but for illegal voting at Crow Wing. St. Paul, it is true, holds on in its downward course but, even there, the Democratic" outrages upon the ballot-box may yet produce a reaction which shall prove a wholesome lessen, though we are rather skeptical about it. Complete statistics of the recent election are not now within our reach, but it will be pretty safe to estimate that the Republicans cast threefifths of the whole legal vote.

With a just apportionment, and a lull vote, we believo they will elect nearly two-thirds of the members of the first Legislature of the State of Minnesota. The densely populated counties of Southern Minnesota are almost unanimously on the right side; and tho Pro-Slavery Democracy can hope for little succor from the Minnesota Valley, outside of Joseph R. Brown's immediate neighborhood. Hennepin, McLeod, and Wright counties, are rooted and grounded in the true Jefferson faith; Carver is righting itself, and we think Meeker will never again repeat its recent mistake. Steams county is cloudy.

Morrison, Benton, and Sherburne, if subdivided into representative districts, will elect two Republicans to one Hunker. Otir imnaicrant nonulation is mainly from New York, New England, and Ohio, and the present preponderance in favor of free principles is increased by almost every steamboat that arrives. School houses and churches are going up in every direction, and the press iB diffusing intelligence even to the remotest cabins upon the frontier. There's light ahead, and every prospect encourages the belief that Minnesota may be depended on as a Republican State. For the National F.ra.

IN MY FATHEB'S HOUSE ABE MANY MANSIONS. BY MARY CLEMMER AMES. There are many mansions in my Father's house? One in reserve, I humbly trust, for me 1 often ponder oil this starry house, I often wonder where this home will be. This mansion, with illimitable walls; Its burnished portals, sun-besprinkled dome The airy splendor of its aerial halls Words cannot can it be my horns' Earth glorious with her garniture of May, Young flowers nestled to her panting breast, Embrasured vales, voiced waves in rhythmic play, To me are types of that I love the best? Poor types of beauty I shall yet behold With perfect vision, in the mansions fair, Whose mystic outline in the spheres of soul I faintly see, yet dream myself the heir. Thy house the universe, Father! where The Eden in thy measureless domain? Where I.

earti weary, may find rest from care? Where soul weary, may find ease from pain. Where may I find my home? Mid nebulous isles, Far in the ether's dim abysmal sea Mid yon phosphoric stars, whese beacons smile Along the ramparts of immensity My mansion! in some keen, self-centred sun, Alcyone, amid the Pleiades, is it there? Or in his girdling planets, circling on, In infinite cycles, through the wastes of air? I soon may wander, roaming on, to learn The secret of all mysteries, whose hidden face I yearn to see, and now so vainly yearn. Aye, still a wanderer, my imprisoned soul A ministering spirit, from the homes above, May wander earthward, seeking t) beloved For, loving now, I must forever love. Immortal mansions in my Father's house! Ah, would I knsw that one remained for me; The dear assurance that I have a home Is all I ask, nor care where it may be. All, all I seek, upon this troubled shore, The while life's human wave swells moaning on, The hope to pass it soon forevermore, To win a mansion worthy to be won.

Mr. Olmsted's book is the most thorough expose of the economical view of this subject which has ever appeared himself a practical farmer, having visited and surveyed the farming of the Old World, he set out upon a tour to explore the farming of the New. His style is simple, natural, and graphic and he is so far from heing carried away by his feelings, that one sometimes wonders at the calmness with which he will relate the most astounding facts.

He never hesitates to admit a merit, or give praise when it is due. The book is very thorough and accurate in its details, and is written in a style so lively, and with so much dramatic incident, as to hold the atteution like a work of fiction.

The work must have cost a great deal of laborious research, and it certain- ly presents arguments in favor of Freedom on every page.
