that with the Missouri Compromise began our troubles. Not so. When the question of fixing a permament capital was agitated in Congress, the South-Carolinians insisted that it should be removed from Philadelphia, because the Quakers were eternally pestering them about slavery. It was with much difficulty that the capital was located on the banks of the Potomac, because the New-Englanders and the Quakers were opposed to a location so Southern. Subsequently, the Quakers became silent, and New-England, having stolen the thunder of these quiet people, has been the hot-bed of Abolitionism. In the settlement of this country, two great streams of civilization poured out. One had its head at James-town, and one at Plymouth Rock. The canting, witch-hanging, nasal-twanging, money-worshipping, curiosity-loving, meddling, fanatical, ism --breeding followers of Cromwell, spread over the greater part of the North and West. Jamestown stock chiefly peopled the South, and small sections of the

he color-guard, while gratifying his propensity for sight-seeing, with the rest, discovered what seemed to him familiar localities. He remembered that he was born in Virginia, and lived there till the age of eight years, but had not any definite idea of the precise locality. He was soon satisfied, however, that he had found his birthplace, and pointed out the grave of his grandfather, and the path leading to the spring which supplied the household with water. Inquiry of the occupants of the house corroborated his convictions, and brought out the fact that he was the sole surviving heir to the property, which still goes by the name of The Tibbals Farm. The property consists of over three hundred acres, and in New-England would make a man independent, but Mr. Tibbals declines to prosecute his claim, as he has a poor estimate of Southern property since the rebellion. He is also the rightful owner of one thousand acres of land in Texas, which fell to him by the death of a relative.

Some fifty years ago, New-England thought The war with Britain was a grievous wrong. It toust by herself, and work her own salvation. She boasts, New-England does, of her capacity For making money; and we grant theospitality, He virtually told them, “Go to----!” No, no--New-England wants the negroes freed, But the poor darkies will not cling disturbers could be kept away. It could not last. New-England's pseudo saints Must rectify affairs to suit their notioof Abolition! The land in other parts howe'er distrest-- New-England yet will “feather her own nest.” But they did err in chosays “Vaulting ambition doth o'erleap itself,” And even New-England may see other days, When ruined hopes another tale will ected, And came, besides, so very unexpected.

crime! What! shall we henceforth humbly ask as favors Rights all our own? In madness shall we barter For treacherous peace the freedom nature gave us, God and our charter? Here shall the statesman forge his human fetters, Here the false jurist human rights deny, And in the church their proud and skilled abettors Make truth a lie! Torture the pages of the hallowed Bible, To sanction crime, and robbery, and blood! And, in Oppression's hateful service, libel Both man and God! Shall our New-England stand erect no longer, But stoop in chains upon her downward way, Thicker to gather on her limbs, and stronger Day after day? Oh! no, methinks from all her wild, green mountains-- From valleys where her slumbering fathers lie-- From her blue rivers and her welling fountains, And clear, cold sky-- From her rough coast and isles which hungry ocean Gnaws with his surges — from the fisher's skiff, With white sail swaying to the billow's motion Round rock and cliff-- From the free fireside
