Old Squire Tobin was a slow walker, but
slower pay. Blesied with- abundant means,
be was of course considered -ultimately good
for any little debt he contracted, but he'
contracted a habit of holding on to his in

" Zonnds ! sir," replied the Squ:re, " - Didn't

"Meet mel" replied 'Joe, "guess it was
, another of Brown's collectors."
id Viten I suppose merchant Brown has two
r striped collectors dogging my steps;
wont pay it, sir, to.daj7-;—begoner- The old
Squire, is he said this, brought .down his
stick hard upon the pavement, and toddled
on.
Joe, nothing daunted, tiy)k• advantage ofan
other alley, and by a 'rapid !nor emenkin a
ow minutes placed himself. once more in
front of the'Squire. The old man'a ; kilo was ,
making him mutter and growl as Rio walked
Meng, and now and then giving point to' hie
anger, by very emphatic knocks of; his cane
on the sidewalk.. When within abont twen—
.ty feet of each other, the old Squire eTied
his friend once more in front. . Squire Tobin
stopped--and raising hts-cane, exclaimed : -
"Yon infernal insolent puppy, what do you
mean I."
Joe, affecting great astonieltmetit, checked
up within a safe distance, and replied : .
" Mean, sir r You surprise me, sir; I
- don't know you, site"
"Ain't you merchant Brown's collector,
that dunned me fire minutes ago?".
"Me, sir ?" replied Joe. "I am one of
merchant Brown's collectors, to be sure; but
I don't know you,rsir." -
"My name is Tobin, sir," rejoined the ir
-ritated Squire, "and you look like the &I
low that stopped me twice before."
"Impossible ! sir," replied Joe. " it must
have been Some other of meichant Brown's
collectors. You see , sir, there are forty of
:us, all wrapped . in 'red striped blankets—and,
the by, Mr. Tobin, I think I have a small
bill against you."
"Forty red striped ce . lleetona, *ad each
•one after me," ejaculated the Squine. "Darn
me, I must put a stop to this is; they will all
overtake me before I read ho me." Saying
which, he took oot Isis wallet and quietly set-
;tied merchant Brown's bill of $550.
" - Joe thanked the Squire , and moved off; but
.ris the Squire had another • square to travel
'before reaching home, Joe 'could not resist
.the inclination to head him off just once more,
Ale accordingly made another circuit, and
came in collision 'with the angry old man, ere
he was noticed.
-" 7..ounds zounds ! stranger," vociferated
the Squire. " Here- ho caught
sight of the red striped blanket, es , Joe, dis
engaging himself from the old man, took to
his heels. Squire Tobin's cudgel was fierce
ly hurled after Joe, accompanied ivith a bear
•ty curse upon merchant Brown and hii forty
collectors in red striped blankets.
It is unnecessary to say, that Joe Harkins
was seen neat day topped off with a bran new
hat.
rar There ought to be a very pretty story
somewhere recorded, of the maiden who vain
ly sought a pet gazelle.all of a long summer's
day, and found it at last in the, dark ; fur
creepilng humbly througlithe grass, to discern,
if she tight, the way the creature had wan
dered,"hy its footprints on the green sward,
the flowers its little feet had pressed, abed a
sweeter perfuine than was 4. their wont, and
-se, by the dying breath Of beauty, she traced
the truant to the bed where he *as sleeping.
So, there have been Jives, and many, the
foot-falls of whose going were fragrant, and
made even the night that closed around their
departure, as sweet as the vale of Cashmere.
INVADZETIS ARE COMING..--We learn that
parties are coming into the. Territory
on all the public highways from Ifissouri,
and are passing to the western' part of- Kan
sas. On Thursday last, some gentlemen
came dawn front Tecumseh.- They report
meeting some ten covered wagokis on the
route, all well - filled with men. and all goir.g
west, and none of them loaded with other
than bottles of bad whisky, a small quantity
of provisions, and camp ftxtures.
Parties were coming for a week or ten
days before the election on the 30th of March,
1855, and their appearance at this time again
looks ominous. if they have come here to
interfere in oar franchises, come from where
,they may, We sincerely hope they will-never
'be alidwed to return to their homes alive.—
They deserve death, as much as would a wolf
who should intrude upon the poultry and in
the night and steal away the fowls, There
is no crime so hose, and none which deserves
such severe penalties, as, robbing a people of
the right of sell-governmet& _

THE VOICE OF LLENIIY..
The eloquent ,Patriek Henry says, in - u
ter-dated January 18, 1773:
. . .
T. f ' L 4 'it not a little surprising that.the pro
fessors- of ChriAiariiiy, - wbosechief excellenw
eouaist in softening the human heart, in cher
ishing and improving its finer feelings, should
encourage a practice Si. totally repugnant to .
the first impres.sions of right • and wrong'?—
What adds to the -wonder_is, that this abomi
nable .practice has -. been introduced in ) the
must enlightened ages. Times that scent to
have pretensitms to boast of high. improve:,
meats in the arta
_and. sciences, and. refined
morality, have brought into general- use, and
guarded by many laws, a species of violence
and tyranny which our more rude and barba
rous, but more honest ancestors detested.—
Is. it not amazing that at a time .when . the
rights of humanity arc defined and
.understrqxl
with precision, in a country above all others
fond of,liberty--that in - such an age and in
such a country,'we find men professing a re.
ligion the "moat mild, humane, gentle and
generous adopting such a principle, as repug
nant to bumanity,tis it ,is inconsistent with.
the Bible, and destructive to liberty ? Every
thinking,tionest man rejects it in speculation.
Bow free in .practice, from cor.scientions,mo.
lives! -Would-any one believe that I am.
master of slaves of my own purchase ? . I am
drawn 'alongby' the general inconvenience of
living here without them. I will not, I can
not justify it.. However culpable my conduct,
I will so far pay my deVoir to virtue as to
win' the excellence and rectitude of her,pre
ceptislind lament. My. Want of ConfOrmity to
them.- I believe the time will come %'rlien.lin
'opportunity will_ be offered to 'abolish this
hunentable evils; Everything we con „du is
to 'improve it,* it happens in our dity ;_ if
not, let us transmit to oar decendants, tOgeth'-
er - with our slaves, a pity fur their un appy
t. '
lot, and an abhorrence . f Or slavery. fwe
cannot reduce this wished for reforma Rn to
practice, let us treat the unhappy victimi.with
lenity. It is the furthest - advance we can'
make towards justice. It is a debt we owe
to the purity of our religion, to show that it
is at variance with that law which warrants
slavery. " . . .
Again, this great orator says:
..‘" It would rejoice my very soul; that every
ono Of ;my. fellow
.heing:s was emancipated.—
We ought to lament. and deplore the necessity
