They knew their right. They would not atloum like whipped Spaniel at the behest of those who thought themselves their muten.

Now binder this treaty will they define the prerogatives of minIstersl What may they say? Some years ago when a minister denounced duelling, tho alarm was sounded.

"We believe of the two evils dram drinkin? or lying that tbo for mer ia far tho greater." Democrat. Glad to hear you say so, neighbor, although in our estimation, you are a little ultra again. But it is necessary for you to be ultra onco in a while, to show that you are a good Temperance man. Now, in our opinion, dram selling is worse than dram drinking. We mean, that the dram seller is the principle cause of dram drinking. Take away the tipping houses, and tippling will soon cease. However, we will not quarrel about thi matter. As soon as you get thro' with the liars, just "pitch in" to the dram drinkers, and we will be after the dramsellcrs, with a sharp stick, and then tho whole posse will soon be surrounded. We hope, however, you will not demolish any poor luckless loul who may seem to be a dram drinker, just to show your zeal against dram drinking. We sometimes go to Moody's and Gardner's for a galss of first rate Soda we can hardly tell who keeps the best. Now, when yoü get to pitching into dram drinkers, don't call us one, because we go to these cooling fountains. True, the deed is much more like dram drinking, than the mistake we mttde a few weeks ago is like lying. But please don't call us a dram drinker, please don't! (ÖrWs omitted to notice the speech f Rev. H. B. Hibben Iaat week. It wu splendid.

(tirNow this faUrhood is evidently

coined by Rev. T. A. Goodwin, fur no other purpose, than to assist the destruc tive pnry. Ucmocrat . No doubt, neighbor every une of your whisky loving patrons will be pleased that you have charged u w ith "coining a falsehood." Giving each other the lie is the fashion at tippling houses, and imonz loafers . Gentlemen have a different way of speaking to, and of each other, should they discover each other uttering or" believing that which is not true. Go on, neighbor. You will make yourself and your paper the favorite of liquor tellers and their patrons by call ing us a liar, but it will take you some time to convince sober and honest men that we are one. Wo are nearly as well known In this county as your noble self, and we fear nothing on that score. We will not even complain of you. The only issues now before tho people of this state, are whUky and slavery, and we ! williugfhat you should defend both by whatever means you think best. We agree with you, that calling us s iar, will go a great ways with your special friends, In the absence of any arguments to support your dear causes. Dut please, neighbor, don't prove us a iar. That will tnako us feel bad. i - - . TWO KOSE METHODIST FRIACIIERS, II ASS.' Some blackguard devoted a column in the last week's Jachtonian to chorging Rev. B.F. Crary and Rev. W. W. Hibwith ving. This is a part of tho programme of this summer's campaign and the peoplo must expect to hear every Methodist preacher called altar before th election. There is hardly a dem ocratlc paper in the täte that has not ndulgcd in this sport already, and we presume all will do it, fur such is tho will, and wo presume the command of their master, that princo of slave holders J. D. Bright, who own s somo editors, nearly as absolutely es ho own. his negroes. Somo may wonder why all this. We can account for It In uo other way than tbo determination of this same slare holder to put down the Methodist Church. This is his fixed purpose, and we pre sumo his plan of operation is to employ his alavo catcher, Robinson, and his slaves, the party editors, to call the preachers liars. If this does not suc ceed, he will probably try some other plan, what it will be wo con not guess Toor man! He no doubt thought that his threats would silence the opposition of Methodists to his nefarious schemes hence, just after his re-election to the Senato ho informed Rev. E. R. (now Bishop) Ames, that os the Methodists had opposed him and tho fugitive a lave law, he would ever hereafter oppose the Methodists. Odcar! J. D. Bright op , . t0 Ul9 Melhouigls! Wo wonde if ho thinks he can accomplish more than his master, the Dovil, has sccom plishcJ. That old slave holder, the Devil,has opposed the Methodist Church '0 than t huaurcdycars and yet it jivCi 1 Perhaps, a. he ha. had to divide hi. by terian. and Baptist, and a score o Protestant denominations, Jclse ... hopes, by concentrating lis forces on ' ' , ,.,... ; one, losucceeu. v e nopo ne may nave C'd tim0 of lt' mine mean wnne, wncnever our mean readers find a Methodist preacher called a liar by one of B right's pro-whisky prola "lavery organs, we hope they w.Jlnot becom eincensed at tho Editor, thereof. He is in duty bound to do the will of his master. And, we presume, among the "private instructions" which Jcsso left, was to be sure to abuao the MethodUt Church. Wo hopo our neighbor will prove faithful and call aoma preacher or other a liar every few weeks. It will not only plcaso Bright and Pettit but afford to lose the few decent people that now patronizo him for tho many new subscribers he will obtain in another quarter SI.AVKUV Atlll'.inV IX K AMMAN. j Hardly has tho news of the passage of the Law, abolishing; Freedom in Nebraska tid Kansas, reached the frontier, before it is publicly resolved, as wo expected, that "Slavery already exists there!" The St. Louis Uepublicun publishes the proceedings of a meeting held on the 10th ult., on Salt Creek, Kansas Territory, about three miles West of Fort Leavenworth, two of the resolutioni of which are as follows: 8. THAT WE WILL AFFORD NO PROTECTION TO ABOLITIONISTS, AS SETTLERS OF KANSAS TERRITORY. 9. THAT WE RECOGNIZE THE INSTITUTION OF SLAVERY AS ALREADY EXISTING IN THIS TEKIUTOUY, AND RECOMMEND SLAVE HOLDERS TO INTRO DUCE THEIR PROPERTY AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE. There you have Squatter Sovereign ty fully fledged the theory develop ed into practibility. TheWe territory of Kansas isfrej to no Abolitionist for all of us know what they mean by refuiing a "protection" which nobody had ever asked for and Slavery is gravely declared by thee disciples of Cuss and Douglass to be "already ex isting" in Kansas, with full libertyjfor every slaveholder to "introduce" his "property." Such aro the first fruits of the passag of Douglas's bill. There havo been a few slaves in Kan sas for years held there in express violation of the laws of the United States in defence of the lejral axiom thit Slavery U a creature of positiv aw, and can not exist without it. In view of these starling facts, We aik freemen of the north what they will do. Will you not unito as one man to resist the tubjugation of this nation to the dominion of slavery?

A Good win h a member of tho S. K. Indiana Conference, that wc will not be re ported m abusing all methodist preach ers us liars." Democrat. There is not a word of truth in the above, not one word, yet wo will not iraitato your courtesy, neighbor, by calling you a liar. There are circum stances which, no doubt, led you to think that wo arc a member of the S K. Indiana Conference, yet it is abso lately false. And had you taken one half the pains to ascertain tho truth in relation to the matter, that wc did in reference to tho cause of the unhappy death of thatgirl, you would not have made such a mistake. Yet we do no believe you were malicious in stating the above.) We do not believe, as many do, that you stated it knowing it to be faleojusttostab tho Conference for keep ing a liar among them, while pretending that you only meant us. Some do be lieve so, but they are uncharitable. You would not do so, would you? Our opinion is that you merely said so because you thought bo, and be cause you thought it would please your pot houso patrons to have you call a MethodUt preacher a liar. We know that many of your sober and respectable patrons wo believe tha all of them aio indignant at your course, m referenco to the liquor traffic and those who opposo it. They do notblnmcyou for not offering argu mcnts to defend it, for you havu none yon can havo none, but they do think that one who is so sensitive on the tub ject of truth might publish fewer mis representations of temperance men and their position. Go on neighbor It is tho best you can do under the cir cumstances. Call us a liar every few weeks, ltwill make your paper pop ular in certain quarters. SONS OF TEXPEB AXCZ.

T1IE OLD BRASS PIECE SPIKED. The especial friends and favorites of Senator Pettit, to be found most numerous around the doggeries of Lafayette, are in tho habit of calling that gentleman, the "Old Brass.piece." We don't know in what way the terra is applicable, as we certainly never regarded a shot from htm as at all dangerous, except like the gun that kicked its owner over. At any rate If ho is a "Brass-

piece," ho has been most completely "spiked" by "Old Bullion" In tho following letter in answer to one written to him by Mr. Howe, on of the editors ol the Lafayette American: Washington, J una 1 7ti, 1854. Jas. Howe, Esq., Lafayette, Ind.; SirYour letter has just been received, informing me that Nr.

Tho Missouri Compromise line was nut violated in annexing the Platte country. lioth parties to the Compromise argreou to it- tho (reo States being unanimous. They was not even yeas and nnys upon It.

Since the Supreme Court has examined tho Liquor Law of Indiana, nnd pronounced "tho true intent nnd meaning" ofjit to be to allow every body to sell liquor that wants to, wo hear of riots every few days, the object of which is to destroy liquor houses without law. One such recently took place at Shelbyville, another Rt Columbia, Rnd various other places. Wc do not approve of mob laws, yet we regard these popular oulbrakes as indicative of a fixed determination to put down the liquor traffic. The peoplo arc rising and will be heard. . . "TO HELL." About three weeks ago a man named Levi Edwards, of Uearvillc, was drowned in tho Conestog near Pool Forge. The coroner's jury, who in vestigated the case, elicited tho following facts, upon which they ba.so their verdict of 'death occasioned by intemperance.' He had been attending a sale near Churchtown, and in return ing home with Rome companions, he lost his balance in crossing a log over the Conestoga, and being too much intoxicated to recover was drowned. On leaving" home that morning this poor victim was asked where be was going to move to on the first of April. His profane reply was 'To lleU?

LADIE3 ADMITTED TO THE DIVISIONS. It affords us great pleasure to bo able to lay before our fair readers tho following action of tho late National Division, S. of T., held at St. Johns. The zeal of our female friends, in tho promotion of the great cause of temperance, und tho very efficient aid they havo hitherto and aro still affording us, in the furtherance of tho work, justly entitle them to this mark of respect at the hands of our Order. We believe it is now pretty generally admitted that a lady can keep secrets. It would appear that the action is final, but wc would recommend the Sons, not to avail themselves of the new law, without official instruction. Rejiortcf the Committee of the Xutional Division, S. of T., of Xorth Amerlca, on the Admission of Females into the Order. St. Johns, X. Uktshwick,) Juno 17, 1C5-I. f The Committee on Constitutions, who were especially instructed to report a plan tor tho admission of Females as visitors, or as full members, and to whom were refered the resolutions of the Grand Divisions of Pennsylvania and Georgia, would respectfully report a plan, which should for the present satisfy the wishes of the more anxious friends of the., proposition, and at th same time can be tried with perfect afe-ty and if experience shall hereafter dictate a repeal, it can be had without injurious consequenees. The plan ptoposed, is embodied in the following, which we recommend to be adopted: 1. That any Subordinate DivMou, may, by a two-thirds vote, determine to admit Females over sixteen years of age, as visitors, at such times as may be deemed appropriate, on their being proposed, reported by a Committee, and balloted for under the rule ob

served forthc admission of members; and that a form of their introduction,
