a, on the 15th day of September, 1836. His parents were Seth Halsey, a substantial citizen of that town, and Julia D. B. Halsey, nee Peters, a woman of strong character and great worth. He was sprung from excellent English stock, being one of the numerous descendants of Thomas Halsey, who came to America in 1633, in connection with one of the colonization enterprises of which John Winthrop was the leader, settled first in Lynn, Massachusetts, and afterwards became a prominent citizen of Southampton, Long Island, where he died in 1679, at the ripe old age of ninety. He was a Puritan, but as has been quaintly said of a milder type than those who settled at Plymouth Rock. The ancestral line in England has been traced back without break to 1512, and apparently to 1458, while English bearers of the name have been found as early as 1189, though these cannot be directly connected. The family residence is still standing at Great Gaddesden, in Hertfordshire, England, and is known now as i

o Almighty God and to those from whom it had issued, in the names of the burgesses and of the whole colony whom they represented; the more so, as they were promised the power to allow or disallow the orders of court of the London company. A perpetual interest attaches to this first elective body that ever assembled in the Western world, representing the people of Virginia, and making laws for their government, more than a year before the Mayflower, with the Pilgrims, left the harbor of Southampton, and while Virginia was still the only British colony on the continent of America. The functions of government were in some degree confounded; but the record of the proceedings justifies the opinion of Sir Edwin Sandys, that the laws were very well and judiciously formed. The enactments of these earliest American lawgivers were instantly put in force, without waiting for their ratification by the company in England. Former griefs were buried in oblivion, and they who had been depende

Going to London. --The New York Sunday Herald says: Company E, ninth regiment, City Guard, Capt. Wm. Atterbury, will visit London in August next, taking a steamer from New York for Southampton. They expect to take over one hundred men in the command, and will be accompanied by a band of forty pieces --probably Dodworth's or the National Guard Band. The President of the railroad between Southampton and London has tendered a free passage between the termini of his route.-- Diston, tr one hundred men in the command, and will be accompanied by a band of forty pieces --probably Dodworth's or the National Guard Band. The President of the railroad between Southampton and London has tendered a free passage between the termini of his route.-- Diston, the celebrated performer on the sax horn, who, with his sons, visited this country some years ago, and who is now the leader of the "crack" band of London, volunteered to furnish music for the Guard during their tour in England.

le and elaborate. He conceived this question of territorial expansion to be the rock upon which every scheme of compromise would be wrecked. He proceeded to examine the subject in its political bearings — the possibility of taking the power of government from the hands of extremists and placing it in the hands of moderate men in both sections. The concessions to be made by the North, if any are to be made, must be such as to quiet forever the agitation of the slavery question. The Southampton tragedy was the result of agitation. The John Brown raid was the result of agitation. With agitation constantly sounding in the ears of the slave, could we expect anything else than an occasional outburst of violence? The amendments proposed by the committee contained no assurance of the removal of this agitation. The subject of slavery would still be mixed up with the politics of the North, in the waging of what they call a moral war upon the institution. No such amendments can chan
