Ebcnsburg, May 19, 1858. j
X3T The Editor of the "Mountaineer"
in !
mo last number ot lus piper, endeavors
to explain his skilly sknllyiny course with
regard to the Kansas Compromise bill.
Philip states that when he declared the bill a
bribe infinitely worse than the origiual
preposition he had never read it. A rather
humiliating acknowledgement, we thiuk. lie
should be careful in future not to express an
opinion on a subject about which he kuows
nothing. We'll wager a shilling he never
read the Lecompton Constitution His views
with regard to it arc doubtless based ou what
he has gathered from the speeches of Stephen
A. Douglas and the editorials in the Phila
delphia "Press" and New York "Tribune."
Perhaps if he would give the document a
careful perus:il he would soon discover that
it is not such a frau.l and swindle after all.
Put how are we hereafter to understand the
LJitor of the "Mouutaiuccr ? One week he
pronounces the English Compromise Pill a
fraud, a bribe, a swindle ; the next it is a
wi.'C and patriotic measure, calculated to rc
More harmony to the country. This reminds
us forcitly of the chorus of the old s"ng :
1 turn about and wheel abuut arid do just.S".
A;;d vt ry lime I turn ab-ut I jump Jiin Crow."
Put it may be that the "Mountaineer'" was
cbtabUshcd men ly as a sort of political w eath
ercock, to show the people of Cambria which
wny the wind blows. Philip asserted some
time ago that his paper was "free ns the
mountain breeze," and doubtless it is, for it
has been so free as to advocate both bides of
a question in the short space of twj w eeks;
"O, ye g'uls an l little fifties,
AYmtlen Kpuons and earthen iih-,
Spout mt ye whahs, and wag your little tuils
about."
Come, Philip, this special pleading won't
do. Face the music like a man, and ac
kuunlcJirc that von were induced to change
your petition on the Kansas question in
consequence of having n.ado the important
discovery .that the Dtiuccraey of Cambria arc
not made of ' transftralle material, and are de
termined to stand by thsir principles aud the
President of their choice. You discovered
that more than seven-eighths of the Democ
racy of Cambria were opposed to any uuion
with the Plack Republicans, and in favor of
the admission of Kansas into the Union un
der the Lecompton Constitution. Having as
bistcd in sowing the wind, you were afraid to
breast the whirlwind. We would advise you
hereafter, before hazarding an opinion with
regard to the merits of a document, to honor
it with at lean a hasty perusal. And with
this friendly admonition we will, for the pres
ent, have you alone in your glory.
DODGING.
Tbc Lditor of the "Mountaineer" pays he
is heartily sick of the Kansus controveisv
Doubtless tbis is true, and the majority of
the anti-Ticeontpfonites are disposed to say
Amen to this pious ejaculation. Their factious
4 poid icu to the National administration has
proved abortive. Mr. Duchanan has been
triumphantly sustained by Congress and the
Democratic party. If the clique who cou
trol the "Mountaineer" had triumphed, they
would not havo been quite no sick of the
Kansas controversy, nor desired to soon that
the past should be in "the deep bosom of the
Ocean buried." Finding that ihcy have got
themselves into a "split stick," they are now
endeavoring not only to sneak back into the
Democratic ranks, but have already act them
selves up as the leaders and guardians of the
party. This we think is rather fast. The
Democrats who made common cause with
Know Nothiugs and Plack Republicans in
the most tryiug crisis through which the
Democratic party ever passed, wLcu its de
duction seemed almost inevitable, cannot
and will not command the confidence of the
party in the present campaign at least.
Disti:si.o Afeaiu. Mr. Perkins, of the
Crm of Smith, Perkins & Co., of Rochester,
N. Y., is amorg the killed by the rotten
lrWge accident on the N. Y. Central Rail
road. Mr. Smith, the senior member of the
n'ru", wat so severely shocked when told of
the fate of his old friend and partner, as to
become dai:gerously ill. Sad to say, his sick-nci-
has terminated in insanity, and he was
mi Sunday conveyed to the Utica Asylum, a
aiauia;.
The Bill fcr the Admission of Kansas. j
Wo have heard it frequently asserted of !
late, that the English Kansas Pill sustains the
position of the Anti-ficconiptonites, that the J
Lecompton Convention was a bogus .iffair,
and the Constitution it framed a fraud and
swindle. So far from this being the case.the
preamble of the Bill acknowledges that the Con
i vciion was a legal body and the Constitution
j fiamed in pursuance of lawful authority. It
embodies exactly the views expressed on this
! subject by Mr liuchanan in his Annual Mcs
: sage. This of course is an unqualified en
j dorsement of his Kansas? policy. The follow
i ing is the preamble :
! YViiKi'.KAS the people of the Territory of
iVansas did, by a convention f delegates as
sembled at Lecompton, on the 7th day of
November, ouo thousand eight hundred and
fifty-seven for that purpose, form for them
selves a constitution and State Government,
which constitution is republican; and whereas
at the same time and place, said convention
did adopt an ordinance, which said ordinance
asserts that Kansas, when admitted as a State,
will have an undoubted right to tax the bnds
within her limits belonging to the United
States, and proposes to relinquish said asser
ted right if certain conditions set forth in said
ordiuance be accepted and agreed to by the
Congress of the United States: and whereas
the said constitution and ordinance have been
preseutsd to Congress of the United States
by order of said convention, and admission of
said Territory into the Union thereon as a
State requested; and whereas said ordinance
is not acceptable to Congress, and it is desi-
rable to ascertain whether the' people of Kan-
sas concur in mo cuanges in saiu ordinance
: hereinafter stated, aud desire admission into
l the Union 3 a State as herein proposed:
j Therefore, &o.
! It will be perceived that it is merely because
the o:dinan"c in the Lccomptou constitution
relative to the public lands, is not acceptable
j to Congress, that the propositions contained
. in the bill, are submitted to a vote of the
j people of the Territory. Notice the distinct
; acknowledgment that 'the people of Kansas
. did by a convention, assembled at Lemcomp
lou form for themselves a constitution aud
j State Government, which constitution is rc-
I publican." What will the Editor of the
1 u i i i : :
!
: "Mountaineer" say to ail
thii? Docs the 1
i preamble meet his full and entire approbation?
The Slave Trade.
We have heretofore expressed our notion
of the political excitement,' proposed by the
abolition opposition, respecting au alleged de
sire to revive the tlave trade. We have es
teemed it as ridiculous and absurd, and as
having no sort of basis upon which to found
it. We have recently sufficient evidence of
this, iu the action if the Southern Commer
cial Con v. lit ion on this uucsiiou. Iu that
j body, uheie the sou"h was exclusively rep
! resented, and where the action wu uuinllu
; euted by the counsels of anti-slavery nu-n,
we find resolutions favoring such a revival
laid upon the table. But we do not propose
; to refer at length to a matter which we regard
as iisr
htly
as t.rs.
Our desigu is different.
So much has been absurdly Baid iu the Re-
publican presses about the responsibility of
the administration for a certain article re
specting slaverj- in the dilb. rent States, which
appeared in the Washington Union, that vre
have no dou.lt it will comfort these pertur
bed spirits to peruse ouic extracts from the
same paper touching this subject. We quote :
The revival of the slave trade is a meas
ure which could only result from a cold, cal
Lu., avaricious calculation of gain and thirst
for profit ; aud we contend that this is not
the spirit which actuates the S uthcrn peo
ple. Even iu the period when the African
fclaA'C trade was in full progress, the Southern
people remonstrated against its prosecution,
The Southeru sentiment has never
since undergone a change on t'uo subject,
X" Southern State has dimanclcd or sugges
ted the renewal of the trade, and even South
Carolina, the most ultra State of the South
on all questions coi.n cted with slavery,
.
recently, by her Legislature, refused to coun
tenance the project, by a most duelled vote
- by a vote taken, too, at a juncture of pub
lic affairs which strongly provoked to steps of
that character, Nor do we belie-ve that a
single Southern State can be induced to es
pouse the measure. We believe
that if there were any mode of taking the
seutimeut of the country, the South would
be found to be even more averse to the meas
ure than the Nerth."
We scarcely know whether to be surpri
sed or not to find the New York Tribune and !
Philadelphia Vci jir iiAlle f rut rum
disposed to ascribe to the suggested revival of
this trade, the recent a.-saul;s upon our com
merce ! The former proclaims :
"We do not believe that the British are ac
ting iu this way from any other motive than
a sincere desire to suppress the Elavo trade,
which, in spite of the treaty between Spain
and Great Britain, has been increasing in
xtent and daring for some years past."
This is making rather too great a draft up
on the credulity of any one, not insane enough
to regard this paper to be honest and honor
able. To suppose that Great Britain can re
gard such inexcusable and unprovoked mis
conduct as that complained of, to be honestly
calculated to effect any good purpose, is worse
than absurd. It would be wanton and inde
feasible to assail, iu the manner alleged, even
a vessel with every badge of a slaver about
her, much less those, repelliug in every way,
any possibility of such a suspicion That this
might be the pretext relied upon is more pos
sible, bat we much queetion whether England
will be disposed vtcu to accept the ingenious
suggestion made by its amiable friend.

ded by the ecclesiastics of the neighboring
ojuuiury oi vasaisay, who pointed out t!u: on
ly pathway to the brink of
the crater: The
two gentlemen attempted the descent togeth
er, but they soon reached a projeciiug Iv'dge,
from which further progress was absolutely
pre-cipitous. After searching in vain for some
more practicable route, th-; baron gave up the
project , and united with the rest of the T arty
in efforts to pursuade the doctor to abaudou
it also. But that was out of the question-
It was his temper to meet difficulty with pro
portioned endeavor, and to do bis bet to mas
ter it before he yielded. The attendants very
reluctantly gathered from the jungle a parol
of bamboos, and fastened them into a rude
but strong rope, by which, under the gui
dance of the baron, thej lowered him over
the brink. He touched bottom at a dep;h of
more than two hundred feet from the platform
he had left, and, detaching himself from the
cord, clambered slowly downward till he
reached thesaiokiug lake below, aud dipped
hi s specimen-bottles under its surface. The
very next thing in order was to get back
again with the trophies of his achievement.
Ths he used to speak of as the only danger

who had less faith in the divinity of brimstone
dashed him with water, and applied restora

despatched to the neighboring hermitage.
The remedies were so far successful that he
could be carried to the halting-place of the
night before. He had saved his bottles of
sulphur-water, which he sent home to be anal
yzed, and with them some fine specimens of
porphyritic tufa. But this was not quite the
end of the adventure. As his companion and
himself pursued their journeying, the story
of the prof mation to which the Tael had been
subjected went before him, A pigmy mob

LOGAN. .
m One of the most interesting characters fur-
nished by the aboriginal history of our coun
try, is-that of L-igan. the chieftai j and the
orator of the Iroquois. His name is equally
an honor to the red race, from which he
sprung, and a reproach to the white race, that
made his life desolate, and Lis death inglo
rious "
His birthplace was Was-kougb, now called
Osco, on the outlet of the lake, about two
and a half miles north of the city of Auburn.
His Indian name was Tah-gah-jufe His
father was Shikelliinus, a distinguished Sa
chem of the Cayugas About 1720, he re
moved, with a considerable portion of the
Cayuga tribe, to the region of Shamokin,
(Northumberland county,) Pennsylvania, on
account of the scarcity of fish and game in
their old haunts. Tah-gah-jute was then
about seven years old. Shikeliimus became
tho friends of the whites, and a Christian, and
was received, with his family, into the Chris-
tian church. At his oaptism, lah-gah-jute
received the name of Logan, iu honor of
James Logan, secretary of the Province.
Logan inherited the talents and peaceful
virtues of his father, after whose death he
became a chieftain. He was a zealous parti
san of the English, and had often distin
guished himself in their service. He was
taken prisoner, and brought before the Gen
eral Assembly of Virgiuia. who hesitated
whether he should be tried by court-martial
as a soldier, or at the bar for high treason,
Logan inter rupted their deliberations, and
stated to the Assembly, that they had no ju
risdiction to try him; "that'he owed no alle
giance to the King of England, being au
ludian chief, independent of every nation."
Iu answer to their inquiries, as to his motives
for taking up arms against the English, he
thus addressed the assembly:
"I appeal to any white man to say, if ever
he entered Logan's cabin hungry, aud I gave
him not meat? If ever hc came cold or
naked, and gave him not clothing? During
the last long and bloody war, Logan remained
idle iu his tent, an advocate for peace; nav
such was my love for the whites, that 'those
of mj own country pointed at me, as they
passed by, and said, Logan is the friend of
white men I had ever thought to live with

FROM UTAH.
The Washington Union yesterday, alluding
to tho recent news from Utah, suys: "ft
seems certaiu that Governor Cumuangs had
taken his departure with Col. Kane for Salt
Lake City, but we are without any reliable
information iu regard to the effe-ct of his
mission upon the Mormon people. It is ev
ident Col. Kane has made a strong exertion
to effect a pacification, but whether hc will be
successful or not remains to be told. Oue
consideration, which may or may not have
had weight with the Mormons, would seem
to indicate now, or at an early day, a peace
ful solution of the problem. It is certain,
for instance, that the authority of 'be Unit -1
States will ultimately prevail; Z7i this end
l. attained througn the action of the Army,
the Mormon settlement vrill be completely
broken up." The same paper states that the
journey of Colonel Kane to Salt Lake as a
private individual was undertaken from mo
tives pf pure benevolence, and inth-hote
that he might be instrumental in inducing i 1J-
the idormous to submit to the constitution
and the laws, and thus upare the effusion of

the Union until they are better prepared to
assume the respond bilities aud expenses of a
State government. This is another Black
Republican objection to the "English BilT'
