THE WORLD AS IT IS.
The worl I is n.t so had a world
As soime would like to make it
Thigh whether good or nt hitier bad,
' )epe'is on how we taak it;
Ftr it we seoid anti fret all day,
Fl om dewy morn t;I evnii,
This world will ne'er atlard to man
A forta--te iere of heaven.
This world's in truth as goutd a world
As cer was ktnown to any
Who have not seen an'other vet
A nd these are very tamany
And if the itin and watin too
Ilave pleit of einp!eyment,
Those !urely mnust be haird to please
WIto cannot find enjoynent.
i Tis worll is quite a elever world,
In rain or pleasant weather,
If pe--ple would but learn to 've
In hiarimony together;
Nor seek to burst the kindly hiond
By love and peace cenented,
And learn the best of lessons yet,
To always be contented.
Then were the world a plesatnt world,
Aid pleamant f'lks were in it,
The day wol-1 pass most p'easantly
To those who *,tn hbet'1n it ;
And all the namieletis grievances,
Brought tin by barrowed treubles,
Would prove, as certaintly they are,
A iass of entipty hub-bl.s.

The In ease of Crime.
Some of the 1i ip: pers are noticing the in.
ereane of crime oet .1 kinds in the c'oun try. and
endeavoing to ac 1 for it. There can be no
doult that c:me j increased considerably du.
ring the last year; the papers conltaini more of
it in various slIpe hian we have ever before
observed ; but sonif allowaince MusL be made
for the added mO:- f.publicity, by which near.
Iv eveirlilg tha .one, no miatter where, is
at once made kiii.
But wliereiorbi4 herease of crime? Whose
fault is -it?... h 3a the reredy ? We can
sedeely. ope, per without seeing an
account of a. 10 de, a robbery, a rape, or a
snicide, or a .onspl -y to deprive it fellow being
of property or lifr. 'Then we have church burn
ings, aind riots, aI o4bs. and assassinajions
all teiding to t14g- nviei lon that the increase
to evil deeds mire.u ni:keeps pace with the
increased populatio' 'of thecouniry. We think
we cii give.one of epc reasons for thig, and that
re:son is idleness -di-position to live widhout
labor-a dependencp, not upon industry and
manly exertion, btiton shre-wdness, chicanery,
and over-reaching "An idle brain is the de% il's
workshop"-and a habitu.illy lazy is habitu
ally and inei'hably:mean.
Another reason m iy be that the laws are not
as rigidly eiforced- ' t hey should be. Juries,
under the iifluenee of the eloqence and in.
genniy of counsel, who in turn are under the
intiuetce of gold ia'the shape of large fees. are
too prone to acquit;.ho wealhuy when charged
with crime; while the poor man, as a general
rnle. is subjected tlhe rigors of the law, sld
eft to his punishmte is a mailer of course. pd
widhout compa sio'on What would hve been
the fi;ce of the ninrerer of Butler, the t-clool
master. if lie had been poor? He would -:-er
in'y have been hiEeti by the neck until he
Wa' dead; but Wahaid noney, and what was
'alsey called socitu distinction and eloquent
iounsel, aid so helwas acquitted, and the ten
ienicy to violations di the law and to crimue was
hereby increased.
But it is useless. perhaps, to dilat e upon these
hiins. If the pufits of the counry cannot
est -iin vice and save communities fo i'm I lie in
rense of depravy ind disreu:,rd or !aw, the
ress will scarcely L' able to effeel it. Yet ii is
iumbeit upon all who wield itifihence to set

nerceiing~ his crii ical position he burst the lid,
and landed at one bound among thte ourners, a
siber man. His fir-st impulse and his firt

that that would be undertaking rather a large

A DEcmDED Tosr. oN Mou0ccACT.-The
New York Observer, a religious paper-while
enuring the excesses of the street preacher,
"Gabriel," and the imprudence of others
speaks out in a tone becoming a true American,
as follows:
" Thiose preachers hae at right to speak, and
no measure of abuse will justify violent resist':
ance. No man is obliged to-hear. Romanism
may stay away if they do not wish to hear,
That isi the moat powerful opposition to preach
ing that can be made. But the Romnish party
have determined to break dowa the itreet
preaching, and of course, the Protestant piarty
have determined it shall not be broken down.
This is the fight. Thte right is all on one side,
which is rarely the case.
" If the Romanisi sre alloWy;to triumrph at
this time, and put down the Protestants, the
victory will ho a bloody one hereafter. There
is a principal now at stake. It is a fight for
liberty of speech. The freedom of the people
is assailed by a mob, and the law is defied by a
foinpplce who have undertaken to pre

From the Charleston Mercury, 25th March.
Legislative Recriminations.
A member of the Georgia Legislature, frot
Augusta, has introduced a resolution to dez
prive ciizens of South Carolina of all privi
leges derived from the legislation of Georgifa.
Te resolution strikes directly at the South
Carolina Railroad, and, as far as we can're
collect, offects no other interest. The motive'
of this legi:lation is an act of our Legislature,
giving to certain named persons, (wh.om .we
do not care to name,) the privilege of collect
ing toll on the bridge over the Savannah River
at Augusta, wiich bridge belongs wholly to
the said city. Not only so, but the land on
this side of the bridge also belongs to the city
of Augusta. The act of the South Carolina
Legislature, therefore, appears on its face some
what like a grant of the privilege to commit
robbery on the highway, and the wonder is how
it ever received the sanction of a body of hon
orable men. We have avoided alluding to
this subject heretofore, partly from pure shame,
and partly because we could not entertain a
doubt that at the next session of 4he Legisla
ture the step would be retraced.
The bill granting the privilege to certain
perons of levying contributions on 'the Oublic
for passing over other people's property, was
not, as far we have been able to learn, the
deliberate act of our Legislature. It somehow
slipped through the Senate without awakening
any body's attention, and it came up for the
aciion of the House the night before the close
of the Session. There was a thin attendance,
mainy members having gone home, and others
being absent. 1bs advocates urged that there
was an important question of jurisdiction be
tween the two States likely to be brought
before the Federal Courts, and that the neglect
of Sou.h Carolina to assert her rights in re
gard to the River in this case, might prejudie
her before that tribunal. We do no; see the
force of Ine argument, but- it had an effect at -
the moment, and the bill passed.
We have aothing to say in favor of the bill.
Tt was in %iolation equally of comity and of
right. It had all the worst aspect, that it came
after the settlement of the long controversy
bout the passage of the River by the South
Carolina Railroad-a settlement on which the
city of Augusta finally acted on the part of
frank liberality, and deservedly won the cordial
good feeling of the citizens of 'Charleston. We
are not surprised that they are indignant, and
we can hardly blame them for proposing mea
sures of retaliation. But at the same time we
re bound to express our conviction that the
act of our Legislature was simply a blundering
accident ; that it cannot be carried into effect
legally, and that it will be annulled at the
irst opporiunity. We trust that our friend.
i. Georgia will do nothing hastily and in ro
sentuient.
FORMcTLE RESCUE OF A SLAVE GraL m A
MoB.-On the 281 uIt., when the cars from
Peternhurg arrived .t Salem, Ohio, the depot
was found to be filled with an exeited mob, in
rr% n .ag & desatch being receivedfrom
to slavery, says:
When the ears sta-pped, a big negro stepped
into them, and accosting the girl asked her if
she was a slave. She made no reply, but her
misiress answered that she was. Thereupon
the bhtek ruflan siezed her, and she clinging to
her mistress' neck, begged most piteously not to
be torn away; but the black fellow violently
tore her aw:ly and in the efflrt bruised the lady's
neck severely, and carried the child out of the
iar on one arm, and flourished a revolver in the
other hand, amid the plaudits of the excited
:rowd.
The master of the child was not just then in
the car, and upon heating of the rescue offered
o go btrmf;e any officer and execute free papers,
if toe gil wished to be free, leaving the matter
to ne girl. itt the mob would listen to no
neh thing. The chi!d's screams were heard
above tte tumalt, begging to go back, so that
he could again see her mother, who belongs to
the am.e owner.
The life of the owner was threatened, and he
lare not remain over, but went on in the cars to
carry grief to the mother of the girl. That
long haired, brainless C. C. Burleigh was on
hand, and tn:de a harrangue to the crowd.
Te Herald denounces the outrage in severe
terms, and calls upon the citizens to wipe out
the stain.

* IN ME3!7 OF JENR T CL.AT."-The editor
of the Manchester (N. H.) Mirror, in describing
his travelling experiences on a trip to the White
Mountains, refers to the attempts which are
making for the erection of a monument to Hen
ry Clay. and states that John h ayes Thompson,
o'f Hjolderness, a shoe Tnanutacturer, whom-he
had met in the ears, a man of good humor and
a good head-piece, wears upon his face a monu
ment to the defeat of Henry Clay, " more in
sorrow than in anger." Some fifteen years ago
he made a vow that he would never shave again
untit Henry Clay was elected President; he ne
ver has, and his beard is a foot long, though
some long cenippings have been taken from it.
CAS LADIzs SET TYF3. ---In answer to this

" Several are now employed in the Job Print

They have learned in a few weeks as much as
boys usually do in as many months, for the rea
