PLYMOUTH, INDIANA, THURSDAY,

BERTHA. IMITATED FROM ALFRED DE MÜSSET. There is light in her casement blinking Still through the village gloom. Of what is my Bertha thinking, There in her silent room; As my daring fancy views her, Sitting with curls untrossed, A wandering, wandering muser, Staving eff prayer and rest. With her father's good-night blessing Still in her virgin ear, With her mother's kis still pressing Hr brow of marblo clear; With a new day's history inkin g Its mark on her soul so white Of what is my Bertha thinking Ere she puts out her light? Perchance of the last new novel, Its heroine's grief and pain, Of love in a palace or hovel, A castle in air or Spain! Perchance of the minist er' sermon, The air of a favorite dance, Her last week's lesson in German, II cr bonnet that's coming from France? Ferchancc of a young girl's dreaming, On words like "mother" and "wife," A child's own innocent scheming, To guess at the riddle of life? Perhaps of her dinner her brother The state of her soul or her shawl; Perhaps of myself or some other Perhaps of nothing at all! (CommiutirA A GLANCE AT Helper's Impending Crisis. BT IKVE8TIGATOR. Helper would have the people believe that his sole object,in the publication of his book, 13 t enlighten and convince the whites, both slaveholding and non-slave-holding, of the South, that they are committing a great error in every light in which the subject can be viewed, by not abolishing slavery at onoö, in If this were true, the query heretofore raudc, questioning the propriety of circulating the Crisis in the Free States which are to decide tho next Presidential election, vro'd be very opportune. No man, acquainted with tho character of the work, can be gulled by such a flimsy pretext. It was designed for the Northern maiket, and in it finds a re.-dy sale. That it will ever bo the means of convincing one slaveholder that ho is a "murderer' a 4,cul-throat," an "assassin," and worthy of the thou sand other bullying ep'thets with which the Crisis abounds, is not expected by anybody. His object is to cater to sectional etrife, jealousy and hatred. The North is extol led beyond the power of man to conceive, while the South is bemeaned into the lowest depths of poverty and degradation. We should like to know what advantage the following is to Southern men: "Sixteen free States, with a white population of 13,238,070, have thirty-two Senators. Fifteen slave States, with a white population of G,1CG,477, have 30 Senators. So that 413,708 free men of the North enjoy but the same political privileges in the United States Senate, as are given to 206,215 slave propagandists' Can any of the Helperites tell U9 why the author made this statement to men of the South? If they, with about half the population of the free States of the North, have the same representation in the highest branch of the government, they certainly cannot complain. He, as a citizen of the South, certainly would not agree that the representation from Iiis State and part of tho country should bo curtailed; and as the North is not asking an increase of representation in that branch of tho government, of course it would be folly for tho South tötender it, even if it had the power to grant it. Fortunately, this is a matter over which Helper and the whole Republican crew have no power, and will not have as long as tho Constitution remains. The system of representation above referred to, giving to oach of tho Slates two representatives in the upper, or first house of Congress, was adoptod by the framers of the Constitution, in order to preserve the balanco of powir. It tho number of Senators was determined by the population of tho States, the Sonate would bo on an equality with the lower House. The equality of the States, is here recognized in its fullest senso. Minnesota, with one hundred thousand inhabitants lias the same representation that Virginia has with a population of over a million; Vermont i3 equal to Now York, fcc. Helper talking that way to Southern men I boh I It is done merely to inflame Northern minds. It is just tho kind of Ulk Greeley, aud tho abolition leaders generally deal out to Northern abolitionists, and is as improper in tho South, as it would bo for a business man to sell an articlo of merchandise for less than his customer had offered him for it. Th representation was adopted by tho patriarchs of the revolution, whom tho Republicans now say wero all abolitionieta.

That it is just to all portions cf the Confederacy, no one will deny. It gives the weak power to resist the dictation and encroachments of the strong, on the sarr.e principle that our system of franchise gives the poor man's vote as much power as tho rich man's. If there are any Helper States which think they aro deprived of their rights by not having sufficient representation in the Senate, they had better have their Senators withdraw unless their demand for an in crease of representation is complied with. That the present system is just, may be inferred from the fact that new States being admitted, never object to it; and old States never were known to eppose their admission on that ground. As another instanco of his pandering to sectional jealousy, we refer the reader to page 185, where the statement is mado by the editor of the National Era, that the Presidency of the United States has been held forty-eight of the seventy-two years of the government, by Southern slaveholders. Forty years of the forty-eight, the Presidency was held by the following persons: George Washington, 8 years; Thoma3 Jeffersons 8 years; James Madison 8 years; James Monroe, 8 years; Andrew Jackson, C years. Now, can r.ny Republican point out a man of those times who could have filled the office with more credit and satisfaction to the country than either o! those men? There is no man living who would dare malign the character of one of them, unless it is him who calls them abolitionists. They were the choice of the people; and it should be counted a credit to the South that its countrymen have proved themselves worthy of the highest honor which a free people can confer. No act of dishonor, or incompetency can bo truthfully charged against one of them. Then why is their place of nativity held up before the people as a cause of reproach? Instead of attempting to engender hatred and animosity against the South, the native place of those early Presidents, all honor, we say, to the S.ates that produced them. Very few such men could possibly grow under the tutelage of modern republican iim. If they partook, in any degree, of tiie nature of the eircum stances by which they would be surrounded, euch principles as were ,iutertained by those early patiiots, would be far from homo in their breasts. The Ileipoiites seem to have seiioii3 objections to Southern mn for the Presidency; yet who doubts but that they would support a Southern Abolitionist, if there was any prospect of success, just as soon as a man from the North? Even now, a great portion of tho Abolition party is going in, might and main, for the nomination of a Southern man, (Mr. Bates, of Missouii,) for an Opposition candidate for the Presidency. Verily, consistency with them would be a jewel, as it would cost them all they ever were, are, or expect to be. Helper's arguments in relation to the South holding all the offices, and controlling the government so much of the time since its formation, have been frequently answeied, although unworthy of any no tice, unless it be from the persistency with which they . aro thrust before tho people. If wo must credit tho statements of the Helperites, wo cannot believe that tho members of such an immaculate party would condescend to accept of an office. Their only object is to bring the governrr.ent back to the pure principles of its founders. This "purity" party has arisen for a great purpose. "Enterprises of great pith and moment" are to bo brought to a succcessful termination, for the purposo of cleansing the national laundry. The North the abused whoso rights and privileges have been so totally disregarded, is about to select a representative who shall clothe himself in the habiliments of outraged justice, whose every fold is a dumb mouth which speaks el oquently of Ceasar's wrongs, march straight to Washington, and with all the eloquence and stately mien of a Cromwell, drivo those, whom tho peoplo had placed there, from power. Then cometh the Millenium. Helper also glorifies the free States beyond comparison, because of their great wealth, as compared with the South. This does not agree with tho late speech of Senator Seward, in which ho denominates the slave States, capital States, and the free States, labor States. If such a thing wero possible, wo should believe that ono of them is wrong; but Seward will not certainly admit that ho is in error and he has said of tho Crisis: "It seems to bo a work of great merit, rich, yet aocurote in statistical information, and logical in analysis." Tho position on this subject, which is likely to be of the greatest advantage to tho republican party, is the one which will bo adopted. Helper and Seward will yiold any personal honors for tho sake of tho party. On all other points, so far as they havo expressed themselves, they are is one man.

MAECII 29, 1860. jDlccteir Mtscfllanu. From the Chica-o Times. Bates, of St. Louis. There is much more scrambling fur the

Republican presidential nomination than, j first class journals brought out his farewell j might proceed, the earth might be clothed considering the small chance, if indeed! address on the 23d of February. The j w,t'1 '1 s"ber gnn; all the process of fructhere is any chance, of electing a Repub- j noisiest of the Republican papers thought ti ficati.n might be perfected without being

lican president, is explainable on any obvious grounds, and far more than consists with the safety of the Republican orgaui zation at best. The mud of which it wa3 originally composed has not yet had lime to dry, and before it will be able to accomplish what it started out to do, not one stone of that tottering tower will be left standing upon another. There is a candidate for the Chicago nomination in every state where the Republican party and its dangerous heresies are tolerated, and in one or two of the states there are two or three candidates. Mr. Seward made his last speech, not to ad - vance the public good, or to explain and enforce any measure of government, but t put himself on a more commanding bight in relation to the prize to be awarded in this city in May next. He does not de-: sire the nomination in one event viz: the nomination 01 Mr. Douglas ana still bis party may force the nomination upon him in any event, ine are thousands 01 Re publicans who know that as long as Sew ard exerts a controlling influence in shap ; 1 .1? .1 . mi 11 mg their policy, their party will inevitably .... . . .

And now we read, hoping to kill him off by running him for in llie fading Republican paper of that tho presidency-knowing that he will be de- ct ti;at jt j3 comparatively "of little imfeated and that in the future ho cannot be ; pöltanco what Washington said, for he is troublesome. So Seward's ambition and i jea,j.t what lower depth is there, we his party's distrust seem likely to conspire ! si10Ujj like to be informed, for these Walto make him a formidable candidate be fore j i0Tvers jn infidel and anarchical sentiments? the Chicago Convention. ! and if a lower depth there is, when, we The east is full of candidates.

01 rsew Hampshire, would not retuse it i Banks, of Massachusetts, half expects it iouamer, 01 v ermoni, uas nc-pes ot it there are at least three anxious expectants in Pennsylvania, and as many mere in New Jersey. And in tho west candidates are plentiful. Ohio has two, perhaps three; Indiana has one; we don't know that Michigan is blessed with even one; but in Illinois there are two presumptuous men calling themselves statesmen, who are looking witn exhausting interest to the forthcoming convention in Chicago. Unless Schurtz is taken up, we don't see but that Wisconsin will be without a candidate: for Booth is in disgrace. Iowa lias not yet offered her man, nor has Minnesota not that both these states have not men as good and every way as deserving of high honors, as their more forward sisters. But these latter slates are too modest by half. While the might at least compete for the uistinctioü of leading the Republican columus in the presidential contest this fall, some other and perhaps less deserving state will carry off the honor unresisted. At last, we come to Missouri. How does it happen that in a state that never did and never will cast a vote for a Republican candidate, is made conspicuous now by the use of the name of one of her citizens .1 .1. ! 1 1 it- . until recenut, one or. ner siavchoiaingcitizens in connection with the presidency? It is calculated that by any means the practical doctrines of the Republicans can be engrafted on to the old stock of Missouri? Then the calculation is falsely based. Even with Bates as tho candidate, the Republicans would have as little chance of carrying that state as they would of sweeping over Virginia. But Bates is an aspirant, and he has friends. He also has opponents. One of the newspapers of St. Louis, which is not it is presumed, very friendly to him, not long ago alluded to Bates' eiaves.and told how he happened to be rid of them. The Evening Post of that city gays and nobody there contradicts the assertion that so far from Bates ever freely giving his slaves their liberty, 'it is undeniable that they ran away from him, and ho used every means in his power to recapture them.' We have, indeed, within the last few days sen an irresponsible denial of this statement in one of tho Republican papers of this city; but what does such a denial amount to when weighed against the St. Louis Evening Post's account of transaction? But further still: rtner Sllll. 11 , 1 and veiv .... . J We have the word of anoiher highly respected paper, also published iblishod in loiibiiou in iven from neu iluiu 01. ijouis, mat wnai we nave rnven irom 1 the Poste ,s true. The Bulletin says that tiiese slaves -ran away trom lum Bates, and he used every means in his power to recapture them, but they proved too smart for tho old chap.' Reader, if you ask a Republican who is posted whether Bates ever freed his negroes, y u will get for an answer 'His sister freed her negroes.' If that answer will satisfy the Republicans of honest pbolitionist convictions, wo, certainly, will not complain. And if the Republicans chooso t put old Mr. Bates on tho the track, there is no man among them all whom Stephen A. Douglas could 'run over, moro easily or beat more sound-'j-Daxiel Wjcrster. Read what thegieat expounder said in a speech at Richmond, Va.,June, 1851. He said of the abolitionists: "They state their supposed injuries and cause of complaint in elegant phrases and exalted tonci of speech. But their complaints aro all vague and general. I confess to you, gentlemen, that I know no hydrostatic pressure strong enough to bring them into any solid form in which they could be seen and fell, j Laughter and applause. They think otherwise, doubtless; but for on. I can discover nothing roal or well grounded in their complaints. If I may be allowed to be a little professional, I would say that all their complaints and alleged grievances aro like n very insufficient plia in tho law; thfy are bad on general demurrer for want of substance.

As a suitable means of si'Mializmir his birthday, a number of it extremely sillv to load live columns with such old liierar'y lumber. The Hon.

If weak on the score ot dress ana pomp, 11 ne uoateu, ne a girl, on flowers, on scents, on gay colors, on the trappings ot a horss, he neither drank nor gamed, nor ran wild and loose in love,. Though armed with the most winning ways, and the most glazing lip in Londou, no husband's peace was ever hurt by him, no woman's fame was dragged by him into the mire.
