Nineteen years have made quite a change in that once qniet inland town. The Greencastle of 1866 looks bat little like the OreenoaAtle of 1837, when w first sew it. But few of the inhabitants or that day remain, hat their places ere supplied by anolhregeneration. Few even, of the fixtures sre as they were. Ia oar short visit we were more in
terested in the educational facilities ot the place than in any thing else. In this, especially, is the contrast most marked. Instead of the youthful, but studious and promising Professor Natt, alone managing the whole of 19 students, most of whom were mere children, we found a corn of teechers, unsurpassed iu learning and ability by any body of equal number in the United States, surrounded by some fOO youog men in the various elasaes of collegiate end acsdemioal studies. We felt a kind of nllisl reveveaee for these men though the were com paralive strangers, and some of them our juniors. They are worthy successes to the worthy men who have preoewded them, as is evidenced not only ia thoee merits that are at once visible, tea to a stranger, but also by the devoted attachment and respect of those under their charge . Except for a consciousness of our inability to do tho subjects justioe, we would give a sketch of them, but u might bo snore striking and rough, than correct For instance, we would

we were pleased to find her devoting

Senator Benjamin, late Whig, and still United States Senator from Louisiana, has declared his intention to act hereafter with the Democratic Party inasmuch as that is the only party upon which the Slaveholding interest in the Southern States can rely for suppoet and aid in its projects of extension. Mr. Benjamin's course is very proper, Before the November election, the whole South will be united en the one iseue. It remains to be seea whether the North wifl fuse on the opposite side.

And an effort will be made to make the publishing interest more effective, by devoting the profits to cheapening books, and relieving it from the tariff now laid upon it, for tho support of the Bishope and the relief of superannuates. Wo can not certainly predict the fate of these measures, but judging from a preliminsry disoussion on the Presiding Kldeiship, that will at least remain in Statut quo. Though a ma
terial modification of tho system is
earnestly desired by most of the working preachers, and a large number
of the laity, we do not look for any change. Most of the delegates are

But the editors of the Sentinel bid fair to be Htanding proofs of tho total depravity of man They seem also to have learned rapidly the jesuilicel doctrine that "faith is not to be kept with heretics." Wh.n they said it was not tho intent of the Ktnsas and Nebraska bill to i.'-i .Int.- slavery int. i the T rriloni s they only designed to "cajole" tho people. When they said that tho actual settlers of Kansas should havo the pr vi lege of deciding this question of slavery or freedom for themselves, they knew belter knew that tho stakes weru set, tho scheme Uid, and bands training to enslave the Territory. Why then did they say so? It was necessary to "cajole" the masses ! !

everything works smoothly. It iaun-
ti stionable thathe office is, in the
band of some men, the most complete
sinecure that is known in any prot estant church, except tho English Es
tablishment. The system might be modified so as to adapt it to tho times, but it will probably not bo beforo another General Conference, when it will be entirely abolished, at least in the older portions of the country. The inconveniences of it, in the East, in particular, have been discussed, and will continue to be until a change is made. We think the move for a lay delegation in the Conference will meet with more favor. The change in regard to tho Episcopacy will not be effected, now, but it will be in lime.

of New York. The opponents of the Republican mo vomer . borrow a good deal of their
strength from the representations of
Ex Governor Hunt that it is a sectional movement, and must result, if successful, in the disruption of the Union. Gov. II. does not pretend that the Re

from free territory belonging to the
United States, and the preservation i f
the Federal Government from its asl . e s . a

any foundation for the charge of abo

own testimony in the following extract

of Congress: ' We are admonished by the Repre sentatives of the South, that the inter

Opposition to Slavery ia a sentiment which tho Almighty has implanted deeply in the human breast, and no earthly power can eradicate it. It may be insulted, and overborne, and trampled in the earth, but, thank Ood, il can never be extinguished. The fires of martyrdom have been kindled often lo subdue it, but in vain. It has seemed to expire on many a batile field, hut only to revive with new energy and beauty. It is the spirit of liberty,

The President's Proclamation, issued last winter, made it apparent that the Federal troops wo'd be employed to enforce upon the people of Kansas the enactments of the spurious Legislature, and the note from Col. Sumner to the Mayor of Law
rence, which we published a few days since, announces bis purpose to proceed to that oily, under the orders of the President, for the express purpose of enforcing certain Territorial laws which the people had not suffered the civil officers of the Territory to execute Resistance to the forces of the Federal Government is, of course, out of the question. It wonld be hopeless, even if il were justifiable: and it eould be iastifled only upon grounds which would jastify a revolution. Any refusal hereafter to obey the Territorial laws of Kansas must be apparent rather then real. The interposition of the national power, in sup
port of a gross and outrsgeous wrong,
gives it the ascendency: and from this
lime forward the people of Kansas must evidently submit to the laws
which the Missouri invaders have imposed upon them.
How lontr ibis state of things is to
continue, and by what means it ean
be remedied, it is not easy to see. Bo long as Kansas remains a Territory, and without some means of protecting
the purity of her ballot-boxes, it is clear that sho will be constantly sub-
jeoted lo the same interference, that
fresh invasions will take place at every election and that her future Legislatures, liko her past, will nol be the representatives of her people, but will be imposed upon them by tho border ruffians, whose rule and supremacy are sustained by the Federal power.
Congress owes it to justise provide im mediately and effectually against the recurrence of sach violations of popular rights in Kansas. But unless some provision of this kind is made, the fundamental principles of the Nebraska Bill, as well ss the just rights of the people, are at the mercy of the Missouri mob. The proposal of Senate Seward lo a t. srV a . wv t t a
aornii rianaas into me union immeuiately, with the Stats Constitution formed at Topeka. would at once restore peace and order lo the Territory. Something must be done speedily, unless Kansas is to be absndoned to anarchy and disorder. Permsnent relief can only come from her admission as a Siate; and if this cannot be effected now, it must be by and by.-

This ia right. If those men do not Jike tbe conservative doctrines auat conservative men of our ti :kst, Jet them set up for themselves.

The Judiciary How the Elective
System Works. The .aiional Intelligencer recently published an article taking strong grounds against ihe system of electing Judges, which has aoquired to much
popularity in various sections of the country, within tho last few years.
We find in one of its issues for the present week, a letter on the subject from Hon. N. P. Talmsdge. of Wisconsin, advooaling the same views. He ssys: The Judicisry every where under the elective system has gradually sunk in public estimation, although there are high and honorable exceptiona to the general remark. As a whole il has vastly depreciated. At first ii wss hoped thai the elective system would be kept free from all party strife, and lhat tbe people would be left to their own unbiased judgment. That reasonable expectation hss been dissppointed. Nominations for judges are now procured by mere politicians, and to subserve mere party purposes. The great mass of tbe people have nothing to do with bringing forward candidates, snd often do not feel suf
ficient interest to attend a judicial election. In this state of things what is to be done) It wss easy to fsll into the system edits detcentut but the rtvocare gradutr. how to get back agaiu that is the question. I know of no better way than to agitate the subject, and present to the public mind the enormous evils of the system through the public press. Public sentiment is already making gigantic, strides in that direction, and in due time will be ready to return to the old and only true system. Judge Horton. Oliver P. Morton who heads the People's Ticket, is a gentleman whom we have the pleasure of knowing intimately, and well. He passes tbe highest order of talent, and has, by his own unaided industry and energy, attained the very enviable position be now occupies before the people uf this Slate. He is an honest, uncompromising advocate of thv duty of the American people to adhere to tbe compromises of our fathers, and their right to wrest from the hands of an imbecile administration, and a corrupt paity, the initiations under which we all live, and control tbem themselves. As a man of moral standing and of comprehensive intellectual capacity, he is far the superiar of A. P. Willard, bis competitor. In the hands of Mr .lotion, the people of the Stale may ivSA assured, their interests will be protected, and their policy ably defended.
