THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1860.
UjT Squire, n few words with you and
your helper, in reference to the Helper
affair.
A few wccIjh ago the Democrat attemp
ted to prove that Helper, the author of
tho 'Impending Crisis," was a hypocrite.
We denied that this ebargo r. as true,
and published Helper's letter of explana
tiou to prove that we were correct iu so
doing. We then challenged tho Sqaire
to cite passages from the Helper Look i i
question, in which rebellion was recom
mended. Tho Squire accordingly cite
several passages which he thinks are re
bellious. Now it will be remembered
that Helper is a native of North Carolina,
and -as taught from his youth, as a mat
ter of course, that slavery was ju-t the
thing that the South needed iu order to
prosperity and happiness. But when he
had arrived at an age of discretion, he
began to think differently, and the cam
paign of 1856, caused him to investigate
closely the facts grounding the Slavery
question, and finding it so much worse
that he had even dreamed of, Helper, like
most new converts, became exceedingly
enthusiastic and deuouueed it in unmeas
ured terms of bitterness. Under such
circumstances, it is not remarkable that
Helper should advise bis Southern friends
who, liko himself, living in Slave States,
to take stringent measures to rid them
selves of an evil, which he believes and
proves by iuconvcrtable Ggurcs and state
ments of facts, to- be rapidly leading tj
poverty and ruin. His language, in ma
ny instances, is highly and offensively fig-
urative, and therefore must not to be lit
terally interpreted, for thevory simple
reason that he docs not, in all case?, mean
precisely what he says. This we believe
from the fact the results which he hope
for, he wishes to have accomplished by no
other means than such as hball be sanc
tioned, and provided for, bv law. He
suggests the following means to rid the
free whites of the South from the domic-
ion of the slaveholders: " No co-opera
tion with slaveholders in politics no fel
lowship with them in religion no affii
intion with tbcm in society no patron
age with slaveholding merchant's no
guestship in slavewaiting hotels no fee
to slaveholding lawyers no employment
of slaveholding phy.-icians no audienoe
to slaveholding parson," &c. His plea,
in short, is to starve them out ac-ordiog
to law, and consequently it is not rebel
lious ; for rebellion is the setting at defi
ance of the established law,or doing things
iu spite of law. This plan may not be iu
accordance with christisn justioo, tut it
is not half so cruel as the course almost
invariably pursued by the slaveholders
towards those Southern prople opposed to
slavery. For they not only refuse to pat
ronitc them, but often cruelly and in pite
of all decency, order and law, drive them
irom their homes, friends and property,
and compel them to take up their abode
in a land where slavery does not hold
dominion, except over the Lecompton
Democracy, who are governed by the
Southern Disunion Democracy.
But Squire, you aud your helper, have
greatly stultified yourselves in charging
the advocacy of this book upon us, for
we only vindicated its author against your
charge of hypocrioy, and challenged you
to show that this boek was rebellious.
Besides, the edition from which your ex
tracts are taken, is not the book indorsed
by a numberof tbePtepublican membersof
Congress. They recommended the state
xucnts of facts contained in the Compendi
um, which is only about half as largo as
the work from which your extracts are ta
ken, and which Mr. Melick has for sale,
from whom, for 33 cents, yoo can obtain
a copy.
Helper's book is defcigned especially
for the South Its facts and figures, how
ever, arc highly instructive aud beneficial
to the people of all sections of the coun
try, as they thow clearly the fruit sprin
ging from the institution of slavery; and
fros this the people will be enabled to
determine whether it is best to vote for
the Democratic party, which is busily en
gaged in lending its aid and support in
extending slovery over the free soil of
our Western Territories, or whether it is
best to give their votes to the Republican
party, whioh desires tojjeep thoe Terri;
tories free, for the special benefit of free-
whito emigrants from J urope and from
all sections of the United States. For
this reason the Compendium is recom
mended. Squire, you feign to sneer at
Helper's statements of figures. We defy
you to show, from any reliable source,
that he has made any misstatements in
his compilation of facta.
You also accuse us of entertaining the
Fane sentiments contained in Helpers
book, which is falc, Squire.
Helper is a Southern man writing to
and for his Southern friends. They there
feel the smart of slatery, and therefore
many wih to free themselves from it.
Helper points out the reasons why they
khould do so, and also suggests the means.
Those who live in the Southern States,
and wih to have slavery abolished in
these States, are called Southern aboli
tionists, and Helper belongs to this class,
and tho-e North, of liko sentiments, art
called Noilhern Abolitioni.-ts. But those
perfons Noitb aud South, who are not in
faor of disturbing slaiery where it exists,
but arc o; posed to its extension into free
territories, are called Republicans, and
to this clam we belong. But you, Squire,
and your Disunion Democracy, say that
the Constitution ot its own force and ef
fect carries slavery into all the free terri
tories in spite of all Congressional or Ter
ritorial law to the contrary Such, iu brief
is the doctrine of the party," Squire,
whose dirty work you are doing.
You charge us with haying a narrow
aud sectional platform, which you say is
the caufc of the present disturbance.
But Mr, we htand on tho same platform
that Washington, Jefferson, Madison,
Monroe and all tho Democratic party
down to 1S50, when that party bogan to
waver in tho support of its original doc
trine, and in 1654, deserted in toto the
principles and policy laid down and pur
sued by the fathers of this Republic;
and then this present Democratic party
took up the narrow, sectional prinoiplos
and policy, which declare Slavery Nation
al, and Freedom sectional. Such, sir, is
the real and true or.use of tho noise and
difturbance which your Disunion party is
making.
You, Squire, also very foolishly ac
cuse us of publishing "misstatements from
the Tribune and other abolition journals-"
Now, Squire, you know, if you know any
thing about the matter, that the Tribune
is not, nor nover was an abolition journ
al. It is strongly opposed to disturbing
slavery where it exists, and boldly oppo
es the plans of your Disunion party to
carry slavery into the free territories, be
cause that journal wishes the freo whites
to have tho free territories, and not your
tlavebolders with their Slaves. As to
the Tribune's misstatements, wo defy you
to make your assertion good. For it is
a well known fact that every honest in
telligent uiiq of your own party, acquain
ted with that journal, acknowledges that
it is the most sincere and truthful, besides
being the best informed journal published
in the United States.

ne democratic majority in the
U. S. Senate are determined to keep
Kansas out of the Union nutil after the
Presidential Election. Not having a sol
itary political reason for their conduct,
nor any tenable ground of objection based
upon old issues, they intend to raise a
question of boundary, and thus stave off
her admission to the latest possible mo
mout. If the people of Kansas, instead
of being Republicans were only pro-slavery
democrats of the regular fire-oating
stripe, they would bo brought into the
Union in double quick time, without re
gard to population, boundary, or any
thin'' else. Such is democratic iustice.

FROM WASHINGTON.
Election of Mr. Forney, and Mr. Hoflman
-xne discipline in ine xiepuDiican
ranks,
Washington, Feb. 3, 1860.
When some gentleman suggested to
Mr. Buchanan, two or three weeks ago,
that the persistent oppo-iitioo to Mr.
Shermau might result in dropping him
and taking up and electing John nick-
man, the venerable occupant of the White
Hourfo, in language that showed the deep
est feeling, begged his friends to avert
what he would regard as a personal af-
frout, even though in doing so it wore
necessary to aid indirectly in tho choice
of Sherman himself. He only deprcca
ted Helperism on public grounds. II
deteated Hiokmanism from the bottom of
his heart.
But in accordance with tho philosoph
ic principle that men hate most inexora
bly those whom they have injured most
vitally, there is another Pcnusylvanian
toward whom Mr. Buchanan's aversion is
of a htill more malignant typo. The old
man detests Johu W. Forney with all the
bitterness whioh his gangrened soul is ca
pable of engendering. And Mr. borney
has this day been elected Clerk of the
House of Representatives by tho enemies
of Mr. Buchanan s Administration! As
the accomplished editor of The Press Gils
his joyous beaker to tho brim, the cant
ing Pecksniff of the Executive Mansion,
with head aorook and heart awry, drains
the oud of humiliation to the dregs. He
might possibly have endured Hickman
But Forneyl "Take any shape but that!"
As a iust retribution for the manifest
crimes of his administration, and a3
warning to future occupants of the Prcsi
tial chair, many wise Republicans have
advocated the impeachment of Mr. Bu
chanan. Of the constitutionality of that
mode of punishment there can, of course,
be no doubt; but to mfliot l'orney upon
him, as the second officer in a coordinate
branch of tho Gevernrnont, trenches hard
upon that clause of the Constitution which
declares that "cruel and unusual punish
ments shall not be inflicted.''
Mr. Forney possesses rare sagacity as
a politician, varied accomplishments as a
writer and public speaker, and will bring
to the discharge of his duties ripe expen
enoe, great vigor, tireless devotion to bus
mess, and winning suavity in his inter
course with those who are daily brought
into official contact with him.
Mr. Forney rendered valuable services
to the Oppo?ition party of Pennsylvania
in the victorious campaigns of 1858 and
1859. We believe hi3 well-understood
present political position is this: If Mr
Douglas should be nominated for the
Presidency on a popular-Sovereignty
platform, and should avowedly accept
that nomination on such a platform, aud
should declare to the country that he ad
hered to the principles he proclaimed in
tho Lesompton contest, then Mr. Forney
would uviQQvthva provided he believed that
tlie platform was established in good faith,
and Mr. D. was sincere in his avowals.
If either of these contingencies fails then
throughout tho coming Presidential strug
gle, he will be found doing battle with
the friends of the Constitution and the
Uuion against tho enemies of both.
The Sergcant-at-Arms, Mr. Hoffman,
was a Member of the Congress over which
Mr. Banks presided. He was brought
lorward to-day by Messrs. Winter Davis,
and J. Morrison Harris, whose friend aod
former colleague he is. In the XXXLYth
Congress be voted for the expulsion of
Preston S. Brooks for his assault on
Charles Sumner. lie is a gentleman of
ability, tact, aud energy, and will worth
ily discharge the duties of his responsible
office.
The unbroken front with which our
friends have faced their opponents, at ev
ery crossing of weapons, and especially
as evinced in their votes to-day for For
ney and Hoffman, excites both the admi
ratiou and the apprehension of the De
mocracy. These reiterated exhibitions of
the very highest reach of party discipline,
despite attacks in front and galling flank
fires, provoke comparison between their
consolidated ranks and the disordered
columns of the foe, presaging a glorious
viotory in the great presidential battle, of
which the pending contests iu the House
aro the preliminary skirmishes.
How True.
The Democratic party was founded to
defend tho rights of man against the pre
tensions of property; aod as suoh it grew
into power. Now it exists as the defend
er and glorifier of the right of property
in "niggers.
It was founded to assert and maintain
the right of the majority of citizens, with
out distinction of fortune to dictato the
policy and administer the government of
of the country. Now it cxist3 as tho ad
vooate of the right of tho majority com
posed of slaveholders, to govern and to
destroy the Constitution and tho Uniou in
case a man they dislike is legally elected
President'
Jjocs anyoody suppose that a party,
wboso only remaining political principles
arc "niggers' and disuuion, can rotain
the support of the Democratic masses? t
Iho people, who are Democrats at heart,
bavo gone over to tho Republicans, with
whom tho "glittering generalities" of
Jefferson, and the stern fidelity to the
Union of Jackson, arc still living and in
spiring realities.
Sharp Practice;
Pending the disoussion of a bill grant
ing a divoroo in the Nebraska Legiala
ture, one of the members related an in
stance of sharp practice of a oouplo resi
dent in that Territory. They applied to
the Legislature and obtained a divorce,
and immediately the man and wife pre
empted one hundred and sixty acres of
land a piece, and having proved their
title thereto, woro married tho next day,
after securing one hundred and sixty a-
crcs of land by the operation.

Terrible Conflict with a Snake.
From The Boston Traveller, Feb. 1.
It was only a week or two sinco that
we announced the arrival at Salem, from
Africa, of a mouter boa constrictor, in
size ono of tho largest evor brought to
this country. Its length, m its quietstate,
was full 30 feet, with a capability ot ex
tension, when in motion, to nearly 40 feet.
In its largest part it was aomo 20 inches
in circumference.
This snake was purchased by Mr. Good
win, broker, of this city, and placed on
exhibition at Horticultural Hall School
street, where it proved quite attractive.
Last week, however, his snakeship exhibi
ted symptoms of illucss in the form of in
digestion, and upon one occasion JJlr
Bishop, the keeper, removed a numberof
feather of an animal which the reptile
had swallowed, from its throat.
On Sunday tho enake was treated to a
warm bath, and Mr. Bishop was again
attempting to remove some obstructions
from its throat, when the snake suddenly
exhibited signs of hostility, erected its
head, seized Mr. Bishop by the hand, and
commenced to coil its enormous length
about the body of the keeper, in order to
crush him to death. The other attend
ants, in the first moments alarm, retreat
ed, but recalled by the cries for help of
the imprisoned keeper, they armed them
selves with clubs, and commenced to be
labor the snake in order to induce bim to
release his hold.
No impression was made, however, and
ono coil was already around tho body of
the unfortunate man, when a brother of
Mr. Goodwin oaino to tho rescue with a
large hammer. With this be struck the
snake two violent blows upon the head,
which, together with a violent choking a-
bout the throat, induced the reptile to un
loose its coil, when Mr. Bishop was at
once set free from his horrible imprison
ment. The snake soon began to sink un
der the treatment which it had received,

were purchased by Mr. Vickery of Lynn,
who will have the skin stuffed for pre&er
vation.
