.I
stood and looked for . hours on those thoughtless

pu'omatons, as they'caught up a ball of cotton
and twirled it, in the tvirinklinrof an.eye,into
a whirl wind•Of whizzing shreds . , and laid it et
my feet in folds.of snow-white 'cloth; yeady for
the use _of the most voluptuous

They. were wonderful things, those looma•and
spindle's ; but they could . not: spin thoughts—L
there was no attribute: 'of' divinity in them,-
and I admired them nothing more. They were
excessively curious,..but . I could estimate the
whole compass of their being and destiny in
finger power.; So went away and left them
spinning -=cotton.. . '•
One day I was turning ~ "my anvil beneath's

While Jeffereon re thus a deadly npponen
a jnet siteh slavery agitation at Doolittle is en
gaged in, it-is as. , much a fact sr. it Is 'that he
wrote the Declaration of Independence, that
he was in favor of alloWinit slavery to diltuse
itself over any Territory where the , people ds•
"Of one thing," his words, April; 1820, - are;
at 11171 certain, that as the passage of' slaties
from one State to 'another would not •malce a
slave of .a single human it!etng who Would not
be so without :it, so their difluition over. s great
er surface would make them individually hap
pier, and prpportionally facilitate the accom
plishment of their' eTancipation, by dividing
the burden on a. greater number of coadjutors."
Does this, forsootli, look like advocating the
Black Republica - a
doctrine, of g prohibition of .
slavery by Congress 1. " ' '
But we have not quite done vvith
in • opinion ••and •action... This Doolittle may
possibly know,tbst Louisiana , was acquired un
der President Jetteison's adininistration . ; and
that then. a Territorial 'government was formed
for Olio ireat 'region. , was' not
prohibited 'in this act of organization, which
was the notih western 110ln:ince with tAle pro:-
haitory claimn stride', atil t That la. the fact.
But an.act March 20, 18.04, which Prohibited
the elave trade in hia - Teiritory, or the
tation oValayea into it froth abroad, actually
authorized ihe . migration . of dbmeatic elaves
into, it:. Here ate :•: •
tiNo .
slave or slaves -shall, directly
rectly, be introduced into . said Territory;
rcpt by the, United Stout tenoning
into, said Territory for actual settlement." '
That was the Territorial law of Louiaiana:
It is a feet . that Congress in Jefferson's clay,
not only expressly refOsed to prohibit slivery
in the Territories, hut :positively au
thorized it in the Territories. •
What are. men
..ma4e of who unblushingly
stand up before the.peophr and put forth'sucb
rank falsehoods as characterizes. the .abelition
heiengue of Doolittle ? It was in view of just
such wanton and'apiCided .slayery• Agitation as
prevails at•-this hour—and it prevails:now, be
cause these'abolition Doolittles 'are traveling to
And fici over the land; ranting'ind reiling•about
"the demon Of 'slaveiy"4-that Jefferson in
1826,, wrote ' , • •
d4I regret that,l air) now to die in tb,f
that the ussless sacr'ifice,of themselves li'' • he
- generation of 1776, to acquire self grivernMent
and happiness to their country, is to be thrown
away by the unwise'and unworthy passions of
their sone, and in} 'only consolation' IS that I
shall not live to weep over it.' If thgy•would
but dispassionately weigh* the bleViliiKs 'they
Will throw away, against an abstract principle*
more likely-to be effected by union than by
Schism, they would pause before they would
perpetrate this act of suicide to themselves and
of treason against the hopes of the World.” •
