It is evident, to every observing mind, that the wel faro of our country is bound Kiln the slavery question. Its solution cannot he evaded or postponed, and parties must distinctively declare their positions on this vital issue. We make no war on the institution of slavery in the States of the Union. We regard it as the patriots of the Revolution end the fathers of the Constitution re 'larded it, to be a giant evil in morale and in political economy ; bet. whilst deploring its existence there, we recognise it to be under the proteotion of State sove reignties, and not to be interfered with in those States, except by their own citizens. co•reayis THE ARBITER OF SHE SLAVERY QUESTION. ."

McHenry, 408 Walnut street, (tole agent to the publishers,) we have. received the 11th volume of the new edition of Cooper's Novels, il lustrated by Darley, which is in course of publica tion by IV. A. Townsend do Co., New York. We have repeatedly eulogized the getting-np and truly superb execution of this most beautiful and truly American series. Darley's drawings, reproduced on steel and wood ; tinted paper, new type, end handsomobinding, it contains all that can Interest the admirers of Cooper, our greatest American novelist. The now volume contains "Lionel Lin coin," a romance of the Revolution, aret publisbod in 1825, fruit of the author's mature genius. Re wrote no book with more care, and his descriptions of the outbreak of the Revolution are spirited to a degreo. The two vignettes, after parley, which embellish this volume, are noble specimens of that great artist's talent. Captain Randolph B. Marcy, U. S. Army, has written a Handbook for Overland Expeditions, en titled "The Prairie Traveller," which Messrs. Harper, Now York, have published, with maps, illustrations, and Itineraries of the principal routes between the Mississippi and the Pacific. A greet deal of valuable information, acquired by the au thor during a quarter of a century's experience in frontier life, is here condensed into a small space, and the book, it cannot be doubted, will be found exceedingly useful to prairie travellers. The Harpers have published an amusing volume of North Carolina sketches, with capital Illustra tions by John MoLenan. It is Called "Fisher's River Scenes and Characters," and professes to be written by Stitt, "who was raised than," They aro very humorous, and have the merit of being short as well as racy. They represent people and things, in Fisher's River vicinity, as they were to bo found in 1820-20. We detect a bit of plagiarism In Uncle Davy Lane's " Ride in the Peach Tree," pp. 0944. Apeach-stone shot Into an old buck's head, takes root there, and, in fulness of time,the buck runs about, bearing a peach tree In fruitage right bkween his shoulders. The same exceed ingly tough yarn is to be found in the veritable adventures of Aron Munchaneen, where it was first printed some eighty years ago. Miss Harriet B. McKeever, author of "Sun shine," " The Flonneod Robe," and other books, has just published another volume, entitled " Edith's Ministry," to which she traces the his tory of an Old Mold—a elms In society generally sneered at, but who generally contrive to do a great deal of good, by their singleness of purpose and good feelings. This is by far the beat of Miss McKeever's productions, and has been written, like the previous volumes, under circumstances unfavorable to composition. She is a teacher, with perpetual daily labors, and her writing is necessarily performed with her mind disturbed and wearied by her hard but useful toil for daily bread. The ion. 'William Elliott, of South Carolina whose contributions to sporting literature, over the signatures of " Piscator " and " Venator," are well known, has collected his sketches, with addi tions, into volume, neatly illustrated by Derby a Jackson, New York. It is called " Carolina Sports by Land and Water," and 'naiades inti dents of devil-fishing, wild-oat, deer, and boar hunting, Ac. A lively, well-written, readable book it le, and we endorse it as such. The Rev. John Cumming, 1). D , a Scottish clergyman in London, who makes # great many books out of the intellect quantity of materials. and who believes that this world is within a very short time of its final Jlestruction by Are, lately published a lugubrious volume. setting forth his views, and has entitled it "The Great Tribula tion; or, Things coming on the Earth." It is a volume which a sane mind could scarcely have produced, so extravagant and extraordinary are many of its opinions and assertions. Dr. Cum ming, who, always makes the most of an idea, put this strange book out as a " first series." Rudd a Carleton, of :tiow York, have republished it, in a neat form. We recommend it to persons who have leisure and patience to grope through a volume of ecoisitlirldireerdy idatitudia.-..- . Charles Desilver, of Chestnut street, limiest pub lished a good Map of Kansas, and a mew Map of the Republio of Mexico. Both have been cam piled by W. li. Holmes. Peterson et Brother( have sent us, published by Dicks Fitzgerald, a 12mo volume called " The Secret Out ;" or, a Thousand Tricks with Cards, and sleight-of-hand—an excellent book of the mit, and like to set all the young folks conjuring. Sheldon & Company, New York, publish a vo lt:tate of Sermons by the Rev. Dr. Richard Fuller, of Baltimore. They are good, practical discourses, much above the usual overage of inch especial litoruturo. The sermons entitled " The Walk to Emmaus," " Jacob's Ladder," and the "New Commandment," are especially good. BOOKS RECEIVED.

To secure a tool of their own as his successor was quite as much their motive as a desire of revenge. We know that the public sentiment of California would not permit him to decline a challenge. nail he nought to save his life by such a course, he would have been branded with cowardice, and most probably have been shot dawn on the street.

But the result of his observations in that else de termined him to retina to Washington and continue his apprenticeship of carrying challenges. The State Central Committee met at Eugene city on the 21th of September, and proceeded to revise the apportionment upon the vote cast for 3.1 r.

Tto minority withdrew, and published an address of unusual bitterness, proposing to renew the con test at the State Convention, to be bold on the leth o f November It will be a close vote there, but I believe the Lane faction will carry a majority of front two to twelve, and possibly nineteen, when there will oertainly be an open revolt, and sopara- e 3,57 771 C 7) 77.CM7, 60 919 85 81,125 W tion of factions. Whether General Lane's friends will be equally lad or not, it is certain that at the polls they will dodge (lit and stab all candidates not of their own school. Oregon will be a hut little field in political *fails until atter the Presidential election. From New Hampshire. In a letter from a oorrcepondent at Concord New llampahlre, be sap : "It may be interesting to the readers of The Pres' in New Hampshire to know that the preei• dent of the first Douglas meeting in New Hamp shire has been elected a delegate to the Charleston Convention. In December, 184 when the Le. compters swindle was first broached in Congress, the Democratic press in Now Hampshire, without a single exception, either defended the measure itself or maintained a neutral petition. George W. Stevens, F l , of Dover, then of Concord, called a mootingof the Democracy of the city of Concord, under the call of the Democratic Workingmen's Club, and was chosen president of the club. These meetings were kept up during the debate on the Leoompton swindle in Congress. They were, in fact, Douglas meetings, and were then denounced by prominent leaders in the city and State—men who now claim to be first and ' all right.' Mr. Stevens then told them that in less than two years the some doctrine that he then advocated, and has ever since advocated, would be the doctrine of the Democracy of New Hampshire It has been in one section of the State, at least, and Mt. Stevens in spite of custom-house cliques and demagogues, has been chosen a delegate to the Charleston Con vention, and will give his vote for the man whom be has defended when his friends In New Hamp shire were not so numerous as at present." The official vote of Massachusetts at the late election has been declared. The total is 108534, which is a smaller vote than has been polled for many years, and but little larger than in the me morable contests between Everett and Morton, twenty years ago, since when the population of the State has nearly detailed.

The last one I declined was from Mr. William B. Astor, who wished it for the Astor Li brary. I offered him, however, the use of a model of a bust executed some years since by Mr. Ball Hughes, and which at the time was considered by my hinds an excellent likeness.
