The Soul and Sinew Market.
President James Buchanan, in his late
Message, dwells at considerable length
upon the proposed re-opening of the. in
famous African Slave Trade, and condemns
the proposition as well upon the score of
expediency as of humanity. Of course,
all this looks very well in print, but com
ing from the source it docs, we confess we
have not much faith in it. It is a trite
maxim, but nevertheless a very true one,
that "actions speak louder than words."
If the President is sincere, why is it that
he hugs to his bosom and takes into his
confidence, the very men who openly pro
claim themselves in favor of that which
he affects to denounce ? Why is it that
he makes such humiliating concessions to
the Slave-Power, as those which so pro
fusely interlard other portions of his Mes
sage ? And why is it that he knowingly
and wilfully permits the Slaveocracy to
mould and control his administration, so
as to make it subserve at all times the
interests of the South ?
The object which the extreme South
has in view, in the re-opening of the Af
rican Slave Trade, is to cheapen Slave
Labor. Those of that highly favored sec
tion who deal at all in the article, take
quite a practical view of the subject, and
prefer to steal a nigger rather than buy
one, even though that economical way of
doingbusiness should prove detrimental
to the market of Slave-breeding Virginia.
The fact is, the high price of cotton, and
the conse(t .demand for Slave Labor,
have so increased the prices of human
chattels, in the "Old Dominion," that it
is now no small matter to stock a planta
tion with a home article of niggers. In
proof of thi, we refer to the following
schedule of prices taken from a late num
ber of the Richmond Enquirer :
"In looking round at the slave sales in
Richmond, made at the well-known marts of
Dickinson, Hill k Co., Pulliam, Betts k Co.,
Hector Davis, and others, we find that active
negroes, likely families, as well as boys and
girls, command high prices, and there are
several gentlemen in market who are purcha
sing for their own plantations in the fjouth.
For the benefit of our county and Southern
reader we will give below the state of our
ulave market, and the average prices brought
by slaves in Richmond :
No. 1 men, 20 to 2(J years old, from $1,430
to $1,300. '
Best plough boys, 17 to 20yearsold, $1,330
to $1,423. ' '
Hoys from 13 to 17 years old, $1,230 to
$1,373. '
Hoys from 12 to 14 years old, $1,000 to
$1,200. '
m Rest grown girls, 17 to 20 years old, from
$1,273 to $1,325.
Girls from 15 to 17 years old. $1,150 to
$lr250. ' '
Girls from 12 to 15 vears old, $1,000 to
$1,100.. " ' '
Of course the quotations only represent the
rates ottered for the best class of slares. The
inferior grades- are numerous, and command
prices in accordance with the quality."
It is for the purpose of obtaining Slaves
at lower rates than those above quoted
to get them practically for nothing that
the fire-eaters of the South are straining
every nerve to re-open the African Slave
Trade. They do not relish the standard
by which Slave-breeders estimate the value
of human beings a standard based upon
the rise and fall of the cotton market.
They are not willing to give u bale for a
a body, even though they get a soul into
the bargain j for the latter, however pre
cious some may consider it, is generally
regarded by them (to use the expression
of the renowned Mr. Toots) as of "no
consequence no consequence at all."
The advocates of the revival of the Af
rican Slave Trade, while they bring to its
support the strong and effective arguments
of great pecuniary and financial gain, are
emboldened by the fact that the adminis
tration of J ames Buchanan connives at the
movement. Whilst the President fills
his offices with such men ; receives them
into full "Democratic" communion ; and
makes them his confidential friends and
advisers his anathema against the Slave
Trade is not very consistent, and certainly
not in very good taste. It is too well cal
culated to remind one of that famous in
dividual, who, "with one hand, put a
penny in the urn of poverty, and with the
other, took a shilling out."
Congress. The Speaker for the lower
JIouso has not yet been elected.
For and Against.
In the earlier days of this mighty Re
public of ours, few (if any) were to be
found who would think of defending Sla
very upon principle. All without distinc
tion of party or creed, seemed to regard ic
as a great social and moral evil ; the only
question being as to the proper mode of
getting rid of it. Now, however, there
are nunbers in the South, and a few in the
North, (with shame be it spoken) who do
defend the institution on principle, and
who vainly search the Scriptures with a
view of bringing to it the sanction of Di
vine authority. We might overlook such
silly conduct on the part of a Southern
man, now that the agitation of the Slavery
question has become so great. But when
a Northern man can get up, in the ereat
city of New York, and assert that Slavery
" is not only not unjust; it is just, Arise
and beneticeut when he can do this,
and be applauded by the "Democracy "
there assembled, then indeed we may con
sider that we have fallen upon evil times.
Such exhibitions of dough-faccism and
airt-eatmg arc sickening in the extreme
they must be di
sgusting
even to the
peo-
pie of the South.
Charles O'Conor, a legal gentleman of
New York, is responsible for the great po
litical postulate just quoted, to wit, that
Slavery "is not only not unjust; it is just,
wise and beneficent." Mr. O'Conor, in so
sayiag, has certainly said a very great
t ll 1 D on the subject of Slavery, and for
aught we know, may be a very great man ;
though we hardly think the latter possi
ble. But of this we are certain : greater
and better men than Mr. O'Conor have
said greater and better things on tho same
subject. Head :

Fon Pike's Peak. From present ap
pearances we should judge that the emi
gration to the gold regions of Pike's
Peak will be lar grater the coming season,
than ever before. From all quarters of
the East, West and South we hear of the
organization of companies, who will go
out prepared with all the necessary im
plements, such as quartz crushers, clean
ers, sluices and other articles calculated
to faciliate the extracting of gold from
the rock in which it is concealed. Ma
chine shops in Chicago and other cities
are busily engaged in building these ma
chines, which are complete in every re
spect, and are calculated to do an immense
amount of work. These machines with
all the appurtenances, freight to the gold
regions, etc., will cost about $10,000.
The stock is divided up into shares, each
member of the company taking a certain
number, and sharing in the profits in pro
portion to the number of his shares. It
is proposed that the owners of these ma
chines shall not furnish from with the
rock, but will crush and clean the quartz
for other parties on shares. The profits
of one of these machines will undoubtedly
be very great, and stock holders will soon
acquire a fortune.
We hear of two companies being or
ganized in this vicinity, one. in llock Is
laud and one in Davenport. Both of
these companies will take out these ma
chines ; the one for the llock Island com
pany is now being built under the super
vision of an old California miner. This
company will start out early in the Spring
and be ready to commence operations as
soon as the weather will permit.
At the present time there is a number
of our citizens at the Peak, who have re
mained there so as to be ready to start in
to the mines as soon as the snow leaves
the mountains. We may look for a hirge
amount of gold from this newly discover
ed El Dorado during the summer of 18G0.

Pennsylvania Legislature commenced its
session on Tuesday of last week. The
Senate met at 3 o'clock, and organized by
electing Win. M. Francis, of Venango
Speaker. Russell Errett, of Pittsburg,
was elected Clerk. The House of Rep
resentatives met at 12 o'clock, and pro
ceeded to the election of a Speaker.

Decreasing. The Mormons, accord
ing to their own census, are decreasing in
Utah. In 1850 they numbered 38,000 ;
in 1857. only 31,022; and in 1858, only
about 30,000. They claim, however, that
they are increasing in the country at
large and in the world, and they ascribe
the diminution in Utah to temparary cau
ses and absences. It is computed that
there are 32,000 in Great Britain and
Ireland, and 7,000 on the continent of
Europe, besides some 5,000 in Canada,
4,000 in California, and several thousand
in the Eastern States and South America.
Altogether they number 126,000. . Utah
is the only place where they practice po
lygamy and carry out their theories of
civil government as well as of religion,
and it is the only jdace where they do not
increase.
There are now about two hundred
and seven revolutionary soldiers livin
whose names are on the pension list.
They have all sunk to their graves but
this small band. In a very few years, not
a human being who participated in the
war of 1779 will be left standing upon
the shore of time.
AwiKi C'utasiroplic !
Fall of the Tembertoa Mills, at Lawrence.
.Mass. From 000 to 700 Persons Buried in
the Ruins. Nearly all of them killed and
Wounded. The Ruins take Fire from a
Fluid Lamp, and 200 Persons Perish in the
Flames, &c, &c.
Lawrence, Mass., Jan. 10, 9 o'clock,
I. M. One of the most terrible catastio
phies on record occurred in this city this
afternoon. The Pemberton Mill J fell
with a sudden crash at about 5 o'clock,
while some GOO or 700 operatives were at
work.
The- Mills are a complete wreck. 200
or 300 persons are supposed to be still in
the ruins.
At present it is impossible to give any
thing like a correct statement of the loss
of life, but from the best authority it is
believed that at least two hundred are
dead in the ruins. Some 18 dead bodies
have already been taken out together with
some 25 persons mortally wounded, besides
some 50 persons in different stages of mu
tilation. Mr Chase, the agent, and Mr.
Howe, the Treasurer, escaped by running
from the falling building.
It is impossible as yet to tell the cause
of the disaster.
The scenes there beggar all description.
Some two or more acres of
piled up with every description
of
ma-
chinery from the fallen buildings.
Huge bonfires are burning to light some
two or three thousand persons who are
working as if for their own lives, to res
cue the unfortunate persons, many of whom
are crying and begging to be released from
their terrors.
Every few minutes some poor wretch is
dragged from his prison and it is heait
rending to hear their cries as they ae
drawn out with legs and arms crushed,
and to see one man shockingly mangled
and partly under the wreck, deliberately
cut his own throat to end his agony.
Temporary hospitals have been arran
ged for their reception.
Another terrible crash caused by the
clearing away, threatening death to all
who may still be alive in the ruins, occurr
ed. Gangs of men -with ropes below are con
stantly dragging out huge pieces of the
wreck which imprison so many.
Some of the rescuers were killed in
their humane efforts.
Surgeons are coming in from all direc
tions, and everything that can be done at
such a painful moment is being done for
the suffering victims of this fearful calam
ity, the mystery of which will have to be
cleared by an inquest.
SECOND DESPATCH.
11:30 P. M. About tcu minutes after
5 o'clock this P. M., our citizens were
warned by the cry of lire, which proceeded
from the Pemberton mill, about four-fifths
of which had fallen a shapeless mass,
without the slightest warning to near
ly 800 human beings who were there at
work.
The building was not thought to be safe.
It was built about seven years ago, and
was then thought a sham, indeed before
the machinery was put in the walls spread
to such an extent that seme 22 tons of
iron stays were put in to save it from fill
ing by its own weight.
From the best information that can be
now gathered the building appeared to
crumble and fall from the eastern corner
or end. It fell inwards. The fireman
at once repaired to the spot, but there
being no fire they at once set to work with
a will to remove the rubbish, they very
soon relieved some rooms so that the dead
and wounded could be taken out as fast
as they could be reached. 31 r. Charles
Batcheldar helped to remove some 25
in various conditions, some still living.
3Ir. Branch, an overseer, has not been
found.
The City Hall has been converted into
a temporary Hospital for the dead and
wounded till recognized.
3Ir. Palmer was buried in the ruins all
the time, and thinking there was no pros
pect of being relocated, cut bis throat to
end his sufferings, still he was taken out
and lived sometime.
The laboring force of the mill is about
9G0, and it is supposed that about 700 hu
man beings were actually buried in the
ruins.
About half past nine o'clock fire was
discovered. This additional horror struck
terror to the friends that before had been
hopeful of saving more lives.
Still the work of removal went on. The
force-pump and engines on the ground
were at once got to work, and have been
pouring torrents of water on the flames so
that at 11:30, the fire docs not seem to
gain, and hopes are entertained that it will
be stayed.
12, Midnight. Calamity succeeds ca
lamity ! In ten minutes the whole mass
ot ruins has become one sheet of flame.
The screams and moans of the poor burned
creatures can be distinctly heard, but no
power can save them.
The Washington mill was in great jeop
ardy, the wind blowing towards the Dock
mills, whose counting rom touches the
Pemberton mills.
Jan. 11- 1 P. M. We have very little
additional in regard to the dreadful ca
tastrophe. A large portion of the killed
are young girls, and many of them beino
main supports of their parents.
The fire was confined to the ruins of the
Pemberton mills.
The loss of property is estimated at
$GOO,000.
The Mayor has issued the followin
tice : &. -
no-
Lawrence: Jan. 1 1
Terrible as our calamity has been, I
think it is much over-estimated in the
number killed. As uear as I have been
..i.i,, tr. :,c,--r-rt:iin. I find the dead and mis-
mu" which is equivalent to dead, is 1 15
pud 100 wounded. Some of the wounded
will die, but very much the larger number
will survive. (Signed)
N. Saunders, Jr., Mayor.
Boston, Jan. 11. The Lawrence ca
tastrophe casts a gloom over this city.
Hon. David Sears presided at a meeting
of 20 gentlemen to-day, who subscribed
$2,000 for the relief of the sufferers, and
appointed a committee to solicit further
subscriptions.
One hundred and sixty-two are missing.
This embraces all those known to have
been killed, and those of which no tidings
have been obtained. Fifty-two persons
are yet confined in the brick and mortar.
One hundred and thirty dead bodies have
been removed to the City Hall, or been
delivered to recognized friends.
Lawrence, Jan. 14. On the night of
the accident, the daughter of James Ban
nou, ten vears old, was penned fast in the
ruins when the flames broke out. Seeing
there was no escape for her, she took her
due-bill from her pocket and handed it to
another girl who was near her, and said :
"You will be saved ; I will not. Give
this to my poor, dear father, and bid him
good-bye for me."
The Lawrence Sentinel makes the num.
ber of dead, 00 ; missing, 107 ; total, 20G.
Badly wounded, 109, slightly wounded,
100.
The Printer's Union, of Boston, sub
scribed one hundred dollars last evening
for the relief of the sufferers.
Tun Prince. The young Prince Na
poleou may be seen at any hour in the
day running about Compiegne, as happy
and healthy as any four-year-old. His
little Imperial highness has several com
panions of his own age, who are decided
Democrats, to judge from their manner of
treating their Imperial playfellow ; he is,
I notice, however, quite ready to take his
own part, and battle most manfully for
his turn on the mechanical horse, which
runs around with one of the boys on his
back, or for any of the numerous play
things that are always at the disposal of
the children. The young Prince has
much the looks of his father when serious,
although he resembles the Empress when
smiling, lie is quite a linquist already,
as he manages to make himself understood
in French, English and Spanish.
Tremendous Trajsedy. Quite a se
rious Indian tragedy "is reported from
Minnesota. The circumstances, as detail
ed, are as follrws : During the time of
the annual payment made to the Chippe
was a year ago, a Chippewa warrior was
shot dead by another of a different band,
of the same tribe. Although strong ef
forts were made by the civil authorities
to effect an arrest, yet the murderer esca
ped. Nothing was known of his where
abouts until he turned up last week at
Swan Biver. Having entered the camp,
the squaw of the murdered warrior recog
nized him. She immediately procured a
gun and shot him dead. His brother,
who happened to be present, levelled his
rifle and killed the sqaw on the spot. Her
brother then shot the latter, and was in
turn killed. Thus four have fallen to sa
tiate the retaliating vengeance so sweet to
savages.
XSS-The month of December, 1S59, is
regarded as one of the coldest Decembers
on record.
