STSuThe Democfats are publishing pre
tended extracts from English papers, fa
vorable to Col. Fremont aud the Repub
licans, but advocating a dissolution of tbe
Union. Tbe liberals of the civilized world
no doubt sympathize with those opposed
to tbe spread of slavery in America, but
. they do not advocate a division of coir
I States. If tho "extracts" are no more
correct than tbe pretended quotations, in
the same papers, from Giddings, &c. they
are a batch of most infamous lies.

I Helper's "Impending Crisis of the
South," about which tbe Democracy are
now howling so loudly, is a book written
tiy an A00111IOD1SI, a uanvu auu uum it-
cently a resident, of North Carolina, pub
lished nearlv TIUIEE YEARS AGO. The
Democracy never .thought of it until they
needed SOME NEW SUBJECT OF AGITATION.
Its spirit is rather ultra, and some of its
sentiments are hostile to Republicanism:
but, coming from a native Southerner, and
.containing so much of truth, its dissemina
tion was, in genera! terms, recommended
by a large number of eminent Republi
cans. Tbe Democrats now seize upon it
as anothor chord in their "harp of a thou
sand strings." Their attacks will give
tbe work a thousand times the notoriety
it would otherwise have bad, and its vastly
increased sale will be a he'jer to llelper's
fortune. 1
Dkodkrick and Brown. Neither of
these men were Republicans, and jet each
was in a position to exercise a beneficial
influence in tbe contest between Liberty
and Slavery. Each had faculties far good,
; which, if cherished and lawfully exercised,
would have made them usoful, and per
haps enabled theui to liv to see brighter
days. Both took a wrong and criminal
course in what tbey thought a good cause,
and both have died violent and sorrowful
deaths. Even in their death, they may
accelerate the doom of tbe monster, yet in
a rational, watehful and consistent LIFE,
could have dona more. Let survivers
learn wisdom from their mistakes.
Cheating. White oak cheese and
wooden nutmegs have long been charged
upon tbe Yankees, but have never yet
been seen. For real cheating, commend
us to one of the sort of folks who think it
right to cheat their fellow-men out of all
their earnings except a bare living 1 A
recent correspondence in a Mobile paper
between some Liverpool merchants and
cotton dealers in Alabama, Sic, reveals
that about oue-tcnth of the "cotton" sold
to a Liverpool firm was coarse land, and
the Alabamians refused to make any de
duction. Northern manufacturers have
also shown similar itnpositiens a common
practice, which the chivalrous South refuse
to rectify. Six to ten cents a pound fur
sand, is dear pay.
Pikect and Indiuect. Men can not
always know what influence their own gonii
example or labor may exert, as the effect
may be far distant, or unseen, or in an un
expected shape. Luther greatly improved
the Catholic clergy, even while tbey hated
bim : and so of Reformers, and those
Christians who suffered in the Dark Ages,
generally. To-day, American Missionaries
in Germany, ka. are doing much to revive
evangelical religion among the church es
tablishments who as such oppose them.
Wesley and Whitfield purified and evan-
gelized the very church of England they let he and his friends can control the pol-

And how unhappy to reflect, that one's

Union-Saving. All over the South,
tbe annual threat of dissolving tbe Cuion,
and of refusing to trade with the North,
is now made. In response, the cotton-
souled merchants, male old women, and
cunning Democrats, are getting up "Mon
ster Union Meetings !" in our Free State
cifics, to condemn the Northern Disunion-
is ts. (who are not one in ten thousand of
our people) but do not dare to say a tcord
agaiutt the thoutandt of leading Democratic
Visunionislt of tlie South!! Richmoid
merchants resolved for tbe fiftieth time-
to trade directly with Europe : whereupon
a class of city importers who "sell princi
ples as well as dry-goods," call for Union
saving meetings to denounce the Abolitio
nists but not tbe Fillibustcrs !! A Balti
more paper thus exposes the hypocrisy of
these silly, unnecessary agitations about the
Uuion :
"DouoH-rACfs Sentiments. We per

"Mr. Buciianan remarked to a gentle
man on Saturday, that all this fuss acd
parade, this marching of troops to and fro
throughout tbe country, and this continual
rub-a-dub of drum and life, was the d st
nonsense and folly in the world that, with

there never bad been any danger of a dis
turbance tbere, and there was none now."

cock of Virginia, the candidate of the
Democrats fur the Speakership of tbe
House, belongs to a class who, constantly
threaten to draw the sword and dissolve

What causes Haib to tlrn Gray.
An English writer has recently asserted
that an undue proportion of lime in tbe
system, is the cause of premature gray
hair, and advises to avoid hard water,
either for drinking pure or wben converted
into tea, coffee, or soup, because bard wa
ter is always strongly impregnated with
lime. Hard water may be softened by
boiling it; let it become cold, and then
use it as a beverage. It is also stated,
tbat a liquid that will color the human
hair black, and not stain the skin, may be
made by taking one part of bay rum,
three parts of olive oil, and one part of
eood brandy, by measure. Tbe hair must
be washed with tbe mixture every morn
ing, and in a short time the use of it will
make tbe bair a beautifnl black, without
injuring it in the least. Tbe articles
must be of tbe best quality, mixed in a
bottle, and always shaken well before be
iof applied.

lhink ttere h.M een t0 n""h Congres-
aional legislation in behalf of the South
already, and "that tbe worst enemies of
the South are those who are asking for
more." It says :
'The folly and weakness of the South
ern people in their incessant demands for
mure legislation, is exhibited in a strong
light, when we come to trace this terrible
Abolition expression of Brown back to
the Kansas Nebraska Bill, and the passage
of tbe Repeal of the time-honored Missou
ri Compromise tbe pet measure of the
Democratic party. What, (it asks,) caused
tbe fierce aud revolutionary Kansas border
ruffian wars, and this five years' internal
agitation of slavery, culminating in this
Harper's Ferry outbreak bow were all
these troubles brought about ? By that

that I had adopted a convenient fashion
by which I could secure time to myself,
sometimes painfully smitten with the re

wore away, and when Mr. Lee came home
he startled me with tbe news that a very

"It can not be," was my reply, for she

she had something of great importance to
reveal to mc. You must be misinformed ;
no one has been for me." Ueresuddenly
e o f
a horrible suspicion crossed my mind.
"She sent for you, but you were not
borne," said Mr. Lee, innocently ; then be
continued : "I am sorry for Charles, her
husband; he thinks her distress much a,
grfvated by your absence, from tbe fart
Ihat she called your name pitcously. He
would have sought for you, but your ser
vant said she did not know where you
bad gone. I am sorry. Yon must bave
been out longer than usual, for Charles
sent a servant over here three times."
I never, in all my life, experienced
such loathing of myself, such utter humil
iation. My servant bad gone further than
I, in adding falsehood to falsehood, and I
bad placed it out of my power to reprove
ber, by my own equivocating. I felt
bumbled to tbe very dust, and tbe next
day I resolved, over tbe cold clay of my
friend, tbat I
ould never again, under ;
any circumstances, say, "Not at home."
