Victory fa a fine' thing—a glorions thing i but ebove aU, It ie rdangerona thing when it crowns the efforts of unreasoning men. - .Defeat, however inglorious, it a thousand i Umea better than victory unappreciated. The raornx of Pennsylvania have achieved a glo. rlone victory—a victory in which the H*fd»trioinph. ed over a Bsdprinbiple, It was not a viplpry over a parly, except so far as party became idenli Bed with a manifest error. The threatening shadow of, a great social and moral wrong had fallen fell upon the cheerful hearths of free men, and they arose to repel the substance. Thank God* they were sac. cesiful. The people have triumphed. How did they tri umph 7 By striking, at one man. They did not go out in the harness of party under the surveillance of party leaders; they became not whiga and demo crats, bat “min!. biob-mindep min !"— helping to gird up each other’s loins with the harness of Prin ciple. They had grown weary of fighting for par ty, and now, nobly disdaining such petty distinctions they struck a manly blow for Bight' Had they madly persisted in plodding along the beaten paths heretofore unworthily trodden, defeat must have fol lowed, and at its heels a train of agressions upon the domain of Freedom by a powerful and despotic influence, aneb as every freeman mast tremble to think of. We rejoice (bat it was a victory which neither of the great parties can justly claim as its own! and we sincerely hope that it is of such a nature as to preclude forever the distinctive existence of either. As men, invested with the rights and dignities of Manhood, we alt have worshipped names and shad owy nothings too long. In unreasoning children, thishlind reverence might be-pardoned; but in men, there is no apology (or it. If we have turned away from these idols now, it is in evidence of the on crashed manhood within ns. The immutability of principles' alone, has rescued- America (be to-day, 'or forever-ras her children will it. ' If any think that the insolent and agreaaive spirit of the South is thoroughly d'ucomfilted by reaaon.of its rebuke, they are .probably deceived. Not one, or two victories of equal brilitance, can, thoroughly 'Subdue such a terrible power. If it is ever driven back-to blacken and curse its own fields alone, it will .not bo by the prowess of an undisciplined body of mbn, bnl the untiring vigilance and united action of the entire North. Numerical strength without effi oicqt organi ration, or the watchfulness of a few true men—neither, can accomplish it. The destinies of this republic sro (inslrnraenlaliyj in the hands of the people. All are deck hands (br-the time being, and only by the strictest unanimity in thought and action, can the good did Ship of State be guided into safe Harbor. I If Ibis day of Success is.to be succeeded by a Year of apathetic indolence, it would be far belter for Freedom bad ft never dawned open n«. If men aie th fold tbeir arms and' commit themselves to sleep now, they deserve to awake bonnd and helpless. They win so awake, unless they are active and rig. slant. There is no hope of success in the future ex cept in a more perfect ibsion. The interests of free dom most not be perilled by s return—no, not oven for a dsy, to the worahipot idle distinctions. There are but.lwo political elements now—Free dom and Slavery. Let them he arrayed against each other till Freedom i», declared victor, and the hateful growth of Slavery is forever checked. It ia high time that the Pbiliatian Dagon ofpolitics — Forty far Party'* sale—was hurled from its proud elevation, tor it .is but common dust, clothed with kingly garments by reckless and unprincipled men to awe the ignorant and- mislead the unsuspecting. Why ahold men do reverence to it longer 7 Does it ennoble them 7 No! it degrades them. Point to one lovely or attractive feature in the whole scheme! There is none—the worship of party ia devoid of anything that can render Manhood heir to other than contempland scorn. Had men been required to worship simply the name— Jesus Christ —with, out reference to the sublime character of him who bore it, or to the precepts that fell from, his lips, what man with the soul.of a man, would be found ia (his enlighlenrd day, base enough to seek to per. peluate such a degrading'idolatry t The only virtue in reverencing a being pr a prin ciple, seems to be, that thereby a better 'approxima tion to the essential good of either, is obtained! therefore, as names have no inherent goodness, and 1 no signification except asthe representatives of «c -nalitiea, it follow* that any homage paid them ia not only idte-hut criminal u Lft us ciU ti/rmnU, Trailersall things by tbeir right name*.

We cannot, however, forbear to mention the spirited man ner in which’ the author has depicted the stir ring scenes of the Revolution, and with what a master'hand he has traced the annals of all the political parties to the present lime. We are all pleased with pictures, and il cannot be denied that the life like ‘delineation of incidents are among the most important requisites to a volume of History. The publishers in regard to this we believe have exceeded any thing ever before atiempt ed in this country. They have certainly "introduced in ihis work the moat numerous ’and beautiful set of illustrations we have ever had the pleasure of reviewing. The engravings are from designs by those farfamed artists, Darley, Billings, Wallin and Doepler, and elegantly colored with from five to nine different time, true to nature, so as to import a close resemblance to well-fin ished paintings.

Kansas is not exactly the place where Adam and Eye first set up in the horticultu ral .business, but no. one disputes that it is a beautiful country. lowa is a lovely country,, ahd frbm what I have learned outstrips her sister Staites, and the territories in many re* specls, ahd leaves them in the shade. This IrlluOiTorlihereis not too'much shade here’,! not are tfiere any pine alumps' liere, immova ble as the' rock of ages, spreading their graceful roots all over the cornfields. There is ia variety of land here—rolling prairie, ta ble lands, ’bottom lands and bluff lands—all of the land' has a rich black s6il that will wear for years without manuring, except-it is some of the bluff lands, the soil of which is a yellowish loam. This is good laud, but it needs some attention. - It can be plowed the first time; if there are no grubs on it, with one gpod team ; but if there are grubs on the [arid, i,e., a small growth of oak bushes as large around as your thumlh—it may be ne cessary to put ' a whole drove of oxen ahead of the plow. Timber is not very plenty, but there is enough to last until more can be grown. The' State is well watered with beautiful Streams, but water privileges are scarce, as they are in any level country,— though they can be replaced by the “ steam privilege,” which is not so scarce. The drinking water is as good as it is in Tioga county. Some water is good, and other wa ter is not so delicious—that which comes from 'the river bottoms is not so good ; but the higher the land the belter the water. — The roads are excellent—hard, smooth and level. The atmosphere is dry, and its tem perature very even; the warm seasons are long and pleasant, with a gentle, refreshing breeze every evening over the prairies. The winters are short and rather severe, with but' little snow. Winter wheat is a poor crop—i there is noi snow enough to keep it from hil ling out; but spring wheat does well enough for both crops. The soil- and climate are admirably adapted to all kinds fruit, vegeta ' hies, and grain 'that grows in this latitude, besides a great many tbingsthat require long seasons, and cannot be raised in Tioga coun ty. The tremendous tide of {migration that is pouring into Ibis Stale will soon take up all the good land and make this a rich coun try; Emigrant wagons line t he roads.— The hotels, or placet where they keep folks, are full, and the land offices'are crowded du-- ring the business hours, [t is an easy mai ler to take tip a piece of land, and give it the appearance and value of an eastern farm of the age; of’three score and ten in four years; for in that time, hedge fences can be grown from Osage Orange to torn breachy slock— shade trees six inches through, apple or chards, &c., dsc. Thus you see an industri ous man can have a farm free from stumps, stones and hills, of the richest land, with an' everlasting -fence, and all other necessary things, besides the fever and ague, which “ embelishraem” eomes in to make oat the full- compliment. But you won’t die with this disease, nor have it, if your time don’t como. There is but little danger having this disease, if, when land is picked out, a- good place for water on rolling, prairio or high land is thought of. Those that-live on low lands, near rivers, are the ones that lake the fever, dec. I have no reason to bomplaio of the health of lowa. 1 came here sick, but I 'soon got well and have been so ever since!. I like to see these western shake with the fever and ague—they are too lazy to do any thing else, and it is well enough for them'lo have a job on hand once.in a while to make them industrious. -After all,’ this is a healthy State,"and the chills and fe ver will disappear as soon as the country is settled, which will be directly. Money is plenty here; theV adopt' the pay down sys tern. Mechanics’ wages are very high ; iu fact, all ilidustriousmen are getting rich fast, especially the farmers, who cannot help but be worth something by the rise of land, if nothing else. Grain is not verv high, there fore it is the mdst profitable for farmers to feed it to their slock, for they bring R good price. -Stock raising is a good costs nothing In keep slock in the summer, and it takeskut little hav to winter them, os the winters are short. ;. Stock feed on a p is-, lure of blue grass until nearly Christmas. Oxen are worth from.s6o to $lOO per yoke, cows $4O a piece, mules $3OO a pair when tWo years old, and they can fye raised as easy as a yoke of steers. There is not much dairy business* done here, whether because the farmers are (oo Jazy to milk or nbf, I don’t know; bul lhis is a first rale diiry, country, with; lotsof good grass, and a pas ture of bloe ; grass, which is the best for milk can ;be found, for there is plenty blue grass seed here. , This la a. good business; for. butter;is 20 cents andicheese 124 cents per pound.

I do not wish to censure our friends, harshly; but if they be true friends, and worthy of our cause, they will tolerate the plain truth, and profit by it. What right had Anti-Nebraska men lo submit, the selection of their candidates to * convention, not composed exclusively of their own party I—lo a convention selected upon bther principles—and mainly upon the basis of fidelity to an old organization; which re pudiated the question of slavery in the terri tories, as a test; or if not so, demanded loyal ty to the National and State administrations at the very best ?' If there was any sincerity atid good faith in that movement, it was im plied .that in the event of the Ne braska and pro-slavery democrals ahould be compelled, by the gentle stress of party dis cipline, to vote'against their own principles, and in violatiomof their conscientious convic tions, if they had any.
