He has first to seek his wife; but as the males are far mote abundant than the females, who are often cut off in infancy, it is not rare to find a young lady pestered by the addresses, or three or four gallants, who quarrel with the sseerbity of Jealous lov ers. If one of them does not succeed in disabling or driving away the others, Ma dam, impatient and dissatisfied, leads them into the presence of an old lion, whose roar she appreciates at a distance.

"SATURDAY, DOCeMbOT 11, 1819. "A motion was made by Mr. Duane and Mi. Thicken', and read as follows, viz.: The Senate and House of Repre sentative', of the Conimonwealth of Penn- ItYlvania, while they cherish the right of the individual States to express their opin ion upon all public measures proposed in the Congress of the Union, are aware That its usefulness must In a great degree depend upon the,. discretion:with which it is exercised; they believe that the right ought not to ha resorted to upon trivial subjects or unimportant occaiiions ; but they are also' persuaded that 'there are moment's when the neglect to exercise it would be a dereliction of public duty. "Such an occasion as in their judgment demands the frank expression of the send. ments of Pennsylvania Is now presented. A measure was ardently supported in the last Congress of she United States, and will probably be as earnestly urged during the existing session of that body, which has a palpable tendency to impair the po litical relations of the several States whiefris calculated to mar the social hap- Pine's of the present, and haute genera tions ; which if ,adopted would ' impede the march of humanity and Freedom through the world ; and would transfer from a misguided ancestry „and odious stain and fix,it iudelibly upon the present race —a measure , in brief, which proposes to 'prised the crimes and cruelties of Slavery Wm gm banks of the Misstesippi' to the -shores of the Pacific. When a measure of this character is seriously advocated in the republican Congress of America. in the nineteenth century, dui several States ire invoked by the duty Which' they owe to `the'Deity, by the veneration which 'they entertain for the memory of the foun ders of the Republic. and by a tender re• gird, for. posterity, in protest against its a• doption, to refuse to covenant with crane, and to hinii the range pf an' evil that al ready' hangs in awful' boding oder so largo a portion of :he Union. "Nor can such a proVlst be entered by any, State with greater, propriety thatiby Pennsylvania ; 'this commonwealth has . • notedly respected the rights of other . States et Whits been careful of its own ; it his been the invariable lot she pert , - 01f,reejoijiliiiiislci - exten to the mil • verse by , their example the unadulterated blessings of civil and religion/ freedom; and it is their pride that they have been at till times the. practical advocates of those improvements , and charities among men which are se well calculated to enable them to answer the purposes of their cre ator ; and above till, they may boast that they were' foremost in removing the pollu tion of Slavery from among them. "if, indeed, the,meastue, wiliest which Pennsylvania considers it her duty to raise her voice, were calculated to abridge any of the rights guaranteed to the several States t if. Odious ii Slavery is, is was proposed to hasten its extinction by means injurious to the Statew upon which it wan unhappily entailed, Pennsylvania would be among the first to insist upon a sacred observance of the constitutional compact. But it cannot be pretended that the rights of any of the States are at all to be afloat. ed by refusing to extend the mischiefs of human bondage over the boundleas re gions of the West, a territory which form ed no part of the Union at the adoption of the Constitution ; which has been but lately pu'rchaeed from a European Power, by the people of the Union at large ; which may or may not be admitted as a State into the Union aithediscretion of Con gress ; which must establish a republican form of Government, and no other ; and whose climate affords none of the pretexts urged for restoring to the labor of natives of the torrid zone ; ouch a territory has no right, inherent or acquired, such are !those States possessed which established the existing Constitution. When that Constitution was framed in Septa mbar. 1787, the concession that thtee.fifthe of the slaves in the &stet then existing should be represented in Congress, could not have been intended to embrace regions at that time held by a foreign powor.—, Oa the ,contrary, so anxious were the Congress of that day to canine human bondage within its ancient home, that' on the 13th of July, 1837, that body unani mously declared that Slavery or involun tary servitude should not exist in the ex tensive territories bounded by the Ohio, the Mississippi. Canada and the Lakes ; and in the ninth article of the Conatitu lion itself, ther.power of Congress to pro. lubit the emigration of servile persons after 1808, is expressly recogliaed ; nor is there to be, found in the statute-book a single instance of the admission of a Ter. ritory to the rank of;a State in which Congress liave not adhered •to the right.' vested in them by the Constitution, to stipulate, with the Territory upon the oon-1 ditions of the boon. : . I The Senate and Rouse of Reprepent. atives of Pennsylvania, therefore, cannot but daprecate'any departure Nan the hu. mane and enlightened policy pursued not only by the illustrious Congress which framed the Constitution, but their succes sors without exception. They aye per. suaded that, to open the fertile regions of the West, to a servile race, would tend to increase their numbers beytnid all past example, would open a new and steady market for the lawless venders of human flesh, and would render all schemes, for obliterating this most foul blot upon the American character useless and unveil ing. . 4 -Alnder . those convioiiono.. and •in full poesuasioa .that upon ., this= topie them is .batono opinion in Nakooyit:*9l, &"E- "Resolved ay lhe Senate and Rouse of Represenlativesehe Connuonteedfh of Pennsylvania, That the Senators of this State in the Congress of the United States be, and they are hereby instructed, to vote against the admission of any Territory as a State into the Union, unless said Territory shell stipulate and agree that, "the further introduction of Slavery or involuntary servitude, except for the pun ishment of crimee whereof the party shalt have been duly convicted, shall be prohib• lied : and that all children horn within the said Territory, after its adnhiesion into the Union as a State, shall be flee, but may be held to service until• the age of twenty-five years."

WHITE SLAVES.--Some of the white slaves of the North ate charging inconsis tency on J. P. Blair beenese he is a 'slave. bidet. Washington was a slave-holder— so was Jefferson, and so was Henry Clay, but they were all opposed to tho extension of slavery. Col. Fremont was raised in a Slave State also, and he is opposed to.the extension of Slavery. There is no Incon sistency in this conduct, but on the con trary, it is the best endorsement of their patriotism and love of country. The white man at the North who advoestes the extension of slavery by 'word or deed, 'is unfit for a freeman—ke ought to be caught by Pierce's negro•catohing Mar-. shale, branded as a slave, and sold to tome negro driver down South as a slave vll the days of his life. Such white men in the North can easily , be spared. and we don't believe that any person would interfere with the Marshals in catching them. If "Ten Cent Jimmy" was held as a slave for about a year, down South, we hardly think he would endorse , the Cincinnati] platform after his return.
