    From the Syracnio Evening'Clfroniele
Dr. Wayland on Nebraska.
A neat edition of the admirable speech
delivered by Pres. Wayland of Brown
University, at the Providence Anti-Ne
bras,ka. meeting, has been issued for
popular distribution. It exposes the in
iquity "of - Douglas's bill from a high
moral and religious point of view, and
will be particularly acceptable to the
cbristian portion of the community.
Dr. Wayland is positionally, and by
habit, a conservative, and acquiesced
with multitudes of like tendencies in
the compromises of 1850. What were
the real opinions entertained by such
men, of that measure, is beginning to
come out all over the country, now that
the lying pretenses which concealed its
true object are abandoned, and Slavery
extension becomes more bold and undis
guised in its movements. The power
of reaction in such minds and the
strength of their prekent purpose is pro
portioned -to the depth of the delusion
which was practiced upon them. We
give a specimen :
" This seems to be only one of a se
ries of measures of which the obvious
intention is to render the whole legisla
tion subservient to the interests of the
slaveholding States, by securing, at all
hazards, a majority in the Senate.
These measures it is painful to spec
ify, I pretend not to enumerate them
all. but I will mention only a few of the
most important. •
Next came the Compromise of 1950.
In, this instance the free States were
grossly insulted, and nothing could have
carried the measure but the influence of
a great statesman, who, by his conduct
in this case, has left a wain on his repu
tation which even his former brilliant
services can never erase."
...rile great question which is hence
forth to agitate the nation is the question
of human rights. It has been the glory
of this country, thus far, to stand forth
everywhere in defense of human liberty.
It is the position which we have taken
on this question that has given us our
influence among nations, and taught
downtrodden humanity everywhere to
look up to us for succor. But establish
slavery not as the exception, but the
rule—make slavery the law of the land,
the pivot on which legislation turns, and
we must by necessity ally ourselves
with despotism. We expose ourselves
to contempt even now, by swaggering
about human liberty, while a pious and
benevolent lady is at this moment im
mure.] imßichniond for no other crime
than that of teaching children to read.
What will it be when such an act of
Oppression is sanctioned by tke whole
country ?
I value the Union as much as any
man. I would cheerfully sacrifice to it
everything but truth and justice and
liberty. When I must surrender these
as the price of the Union, the,Union
becomes at once a thing which I abhor.
To form a union for the sake of oppres
sion, is . to make myself an oppressor.
This I cannot b.?, for I love liberty as
much for my neighbor as for myself.
To sacrifice my liberty for the sake of
union is impossible. God made me free,
and I cannot be in bondage to any man.
These I believe to be the sentiments of
the free States, and therefcrre it as a
friend of the Union chat i protcot aaeitlJt
this bill."
Let the friends of freedom see that
this powerful argument is widely circu
lated.

Justice among the Chivalry.
Last Friday, Matthew F. Wnrd, who
had,•for what he conceived an insult to
his brother, a schoolboy, armed himself
.to the teeth, sought the school-room of
Professor Butler, called him . " a scoundrel
and a coward,r and shot hint dead, was
acquitted by a Kentucky jury. He was
rich, belonged to a powerful family, and,
according to the morality of Kentucky
society, was not to be blamed fur taking
the life of a schooknaster. What ! hang
.a Kentucky gentleman for killing a ped
agogue! Ridiculous! .
Last Monday, a man, the property of
a Mr. Street, of Charleston, South Caro
lina, was strung up by the neck and
hung with as little ceremony as boys
would string up a trapped rat. His
crime was havinr , struck a white woman.
- He had been duly convicted of it by a
jury 'composed of magistrates and free
holders!
In view of these facts, we ask what
the life of a poor man is worth in those
States? Free, a - rich man shoots him
down-as he would - a squirrel, and there
- is no punishment ; enslaved, he is bung
up if he dare resent a .blow. - Life is
hardly worth ,having there unless ac
companied - by tiNg-ood income and aristo
cratic position. An improvement in the
Kentucky code would be the law of the
dark ages which affixed a fine for mur
der in proportion to the rank of the
victim. The Kentuckians should enact
that any chivalrous gentleman may kill
a young negro for one dollar, a grown
up one for ten, a white laborer for fifteen,
a mechanic for fifty, and a schoolmaster
tor one hundred. We should then have
come hope of progress in the dark and
bloody ground.--Phil. Daily Register.
WHILE passing a group of young
marble•gamblers the other day, w.e heard
a new version of Scripture. Swear
not. at all," said .we to a blubbering
chick who was reeling out oaths 'with
the energy of maturer years. 4 , 1 wan't
swearing at all on 'em—only the black
E=-se .who hooked my marbles. Boo—

Cuba-and Nebraidca:
The atainrits - brought from Spain by
the Afiiii - contradict the advices which
came by the preceding steamer in re
spect to the Black Warrior affair. We
are now told that there has been no
settlement of the case, as was previously
represented, and that Mr. Soule was
loud and violent in his demands.
This fact renders it clear that it is
well to keep a sharp lookout upon
course of the Administration on the
Culi&l question. Mr. Slidell did not
make his speech without consulting the
President and his friends. Mr. Soule
has, no doubt, acted in the Black War
rior affair under the immediate instruc
tion of the Adniinistration.
Nov 'let it be remembered that the
Administration is in straits with the
Nebraska bill. It is already casting
about to see what can be donee to divert
public attention ‘if the measure.. shall
altogether miscarry in the existing
scheme to put it through" the House as
announced by Mr. Richardson. The
Cuban question is just the one to raise a
cloud of dust upon, which shall quite
obscure Nebraska. Would it not be
delightful to place in the hands of Mr.
Pierce the power to announce the neu
trality laws repealed, so' far as they
relate to Spain, just in that happy dick
of time when political disaster should
most seriously threaten the Administra
tion or the party ?
From what we see, we feel confident
that the Cuba . and Black Warrior
questions wait upon Nebraska. As
Mr. Pierce has said, in substance,
during the Nebraska discussion, "the
people of this country must always have
some political question to be . excited
about ; but they forget the old as soon
as a new one• is started; and they will
forget Nebraska in six weeks if some
thing stirring follows on its heels."
We presume that three more tricky and
managing politicians do n't live than
Franklin Pierce, Caleb Cushing and
Peter SOule. If we were to add a
fourth, we should of course name Ste
phen A. Douglas. We repeat, that
this Administration is inclined to play a.
deep game of mischief, and that in doing
it. Cuba and Nebraska are twin brother
of evel.—N. Y. Tribune, May 6.
Hon. John C. KunkeL
We have been applied to . frequently,
for a copy of the glowing speech made
by this eloquent Senator. in rebuke of
ELI K. PRICE, last week,. but we regret
to say that no stenographer was present,
and therefore it is lost to the world.
Those who heard it, 'say it was one of
the best speeches ever delivered in the
Senate Chamber--full of cogent argu
ment, eloquent satire, crushing invective,
brilliant appeals, and logical demonstra
tions. It came up, however, so inci
dentally and unexpectedly, that it passed
over the Senate like a flash or lightning,
never to be recovered. We have heard
many veteran politicians say. that Mr.
Kunkel reminds them more in his style
of oratory of Henry Clay in his prime,
than any other living young man. He
•is- truly eloquent, bold, fearless and
ready.
The above notice of one of the most
promising youna men of P•m—r l---- '
the Philadelphia Sun. We
can endorse the compliment, as - one well
earned and justly deserved. icir:Kiin
kel has greatly distinguished himself in
his course in the Senate, and it is a
reproach that there is not a paper in
Elarriiburii that either reports his speech
es or sketches of them, or notices them
editorially. ills speech on the NebraskU
resolutions is said to have been one of
the Most brilliant and powerful ever
delivered in the Senate Chamber.—
Lancaster Whig.
The Indiana Patriot, a Democratic
journal issued at Vincennes, comes out
strongly and ably for Liquor Prohibition.
As to the fear often expressed .by his
compatriots that the Whigs may make
capital uut of Prohibition the Editor
suggests that the Democrats obviate all
danger on that score by taking the lead
in favor of Temperance Reform and
calling on
. Whigs and others to follow
them. ,af they do this, he don't see ho,v
Prohibition can "hurt the party." .A
very sensible suggestion..N. nib
; une.
We_commend the above
. plan of action
to those anxious hunkers hereabouts,
who are terribly afraid the Free Soilers
witl make capital out of the Temperance
question. They will succeed much
better we think if they will show the
people that they are reliable friends of
Temperance, than by following up the
present attempt to disparage the efforts
and motives of others..
THE: DirISPOTIE4 OF SLAVERY.—We
have before us a letter from a young
man, formerly a clerk in the store of S.
H. Goodwin, in this village, now in
Mobile, Alabama, to a friend hem, beg
ging and entreating him not to !end him
any more copies of the Telegraph, on
account of his personal safety. He says
that if it were known that he received
a paper of anti-slavery principles he
would be ruined. Such is the freedom
of thought and action tolerated in those
States where the pat institution," to
strengthen, extend, -and perpetnate
which, the powers of the Federal Gov
ernment are stretched to their utmost,
exists. Ought we not to be induced, by
such encouraging symptom!, to fasten
upon the almost illimitable region of the
West the blessings of human slavery ?

Whiggery has been dead long ago, and

A. FRIEND has just Informed us that
fruit and flowers-may be preserved from
decay and fading by immersing them in
a solution of Gum Arabic in water two
or three times, waiting a sufficient time
between each immersion to allow the
gum to. dry. This process covers the
surface of the fruit with a thin coating
of the gum, which is entirely impervious
to the air, and thus prevents the decay
of the fruit, or the withering of the
flower. Our friend has rose's thus pre
served which haVe all the beauty and
fragrance of freshly plucked ones, though
they have been separated from the pa
rent stem since June last. To ensure
success in experiments of this kind, it
should be borne in mind that the whole
surface must be completely covered ; for
if the air only gains entrance at a pin
hole, the labor will be all lost. In pre
serving specimens of fruit particular.
care should be taken to cover the stem,
end . and all, with the gum. A good:
way is to wind a thread of silk about
the stem,.and then sink it slowly in the
solution, which sh ould not be so 'strong
as to leave a particle of the gum undis
solved. The gum is so perfectly trans
parent. that you can with difficulty de
tect its presence, except by the touch.
Here we have another simple, method
of. fixing the fleeting beauty of Nature,
and surrounding ourselves ever with
those objects which do most elevate the
mind, refine the taste, and purify the
heart.—Country Gentleman.
Is The Traffic Right ?
" Can it be right," asked . Rev. Dr.
Wayland, "for me to derive my living
from that which is debasing the minds,
ruining the souls, destroying foreVer the
happiness of the domestic circle, filling
the land with women and children in a
condition far more deplorable than that
of widows and orphans; which is the
cause of nine-tenths-of all the crimes
which are perpetrate.] 'in. society, and
brings upon it nine-tenths of all the
tuperism which exists ; which accom
plishes all these at once, and does it
without ceasing? Do you say you are
not responsible for the acts of your neigh
bors? Is this clearly so? Is NOT HE
WHO NAVIGATES A SLAVE SHIP A PIRATE.?"
I TENDENCY OF SLAVERY. - Messrs.
Jones, of Tenn., and Houston, of Ala.,
in the House of Representatives, yester
day, declared themselves in favor of
raising the rates of nostsrr. - -
.cpariment now costs more
than it produces. The answer was
prompt and conclusive : The convey
ancet of letters and documents under
frank, 'alone, costs the whole of this
excess, if not more. Abolish the frank
ing privilege, and the department will
instantly pay its way. That, however,
does not suit Messrs. Jones and Houston.
They prefer to pay nothing for their
own letters and for sending their own
stupid speeches about the country, and
to tax every poor widow and every
hard-working man to cover the expense.
Of course these gentlemen both belong
to the slave-driving Democracy. if they
could. only get Slavery into Nebraska
and stop the circulation of letters and
newspapers in the free States, they
would probably regard the country as
safe. Shall they be gratified I—N. Y.

J. BLOOMINGDALE,
Principal.
The undersigned, Trustees of the Cou
dersport Academy, are moved by a sense of
official and personal duty to invite the at
tention of the Public—of parents in panic
ular, to the rising and useful character of
this Institution of Learning. When invited,
a little more, than a half-year ago, to the
superintendence of its affairs, we' found it
depressed and still declining. We requested
Mr. J. BLOOMINGDALE to become its Princi
pal Teacher, and entrusted its organization
and other most onerous affairs to his discre
tion and management. Experience,. has
,proved him to be faithful, efficient, and
practical—just euch an instructor as this
community need. The number of pupils
in, the school Is now over sixty. We refer
to Mr. Bloomingdale's advertisement for
information as to the terms and conditions
on which pupils are admitted, and for other
facts of interest; and recommend-the insti
tution to the patronage of the people.
