The New Indian Territories.

We called the atteiltion of the public
some months ago to the Bill of Mr.
Johnson of Arkansas for the organization-
of the three new Indian Territories of
Chelokee, Muskogee and Chahta, lying
south of Kanzas, between the latitude:
of 34 atid 37 North, and the longitude.-
94 and 100. extending down to the head
rreams of the Red River in Louisiana.
This bill is made the order of the day for
tile 15th of this month. Our friend.-
were incredulous of the very existence 01
such a measure, and have none of them
responded to the fears we then expres-
sad.

The provisions of the new bill are in-
tended to make three new Slave States in
that region, when the population is suf-
ficiently large. It recognizes the pres-
ent legislative existence of the Creek,
Cherokee, and Choctaw nations, only
making those Legislatures dependent
upon Congress, and under the control of
an ordinary Territorial Governor. It
gives to the settled I-mlian the right qf
American citizenship, and allows the
Territorial Government to be chosen for
four years, by those who now home 8/18
power of voting among the Indians.

Slavery already exists among these In.
dian tribes, and its preservation is secu-
red by a section that says: "Nothing in
this act contained shall be so construed
as to abrozate, change. alter or impair
me C! nst u ion or laws, or the custom or
usages /ta-cling the forceqf law, of eitlier
of said nations of Indians.” It secures
the new Slates from the encroachlnens
of Freedom by providing that "no white
man, or other Indians, shall be allowed
to settle or trespass on any of said lauds
east of the one hundredth parallel of west
longitude, without consmt of the Legis
latureoftlle proper territory, and in pur-
suance of laws by it enacted." It pro-
vides that the criminal code 2]‘ Arkansas
shall lie force in the new territories, and
extends the Fugitive Slave Law to them.

The closing sections of the new aci
are as follows: '

Sac, 48, And be it further enacted.
That wlieiiever the people of the said
three territories shall, by acts of their
I'8SpPCllVt'. leglslatlires, consent to lllllllr
together and lorlli one people, and be in-
cluded in one terrrory, they shall be en-
tilled to be erccled into a territory of the
Uliited States, [0 be called the territory
of Neoslio, ill the same lilatiner as other
territories have been created; and after-
Wards, when Congress shall be satisfied
as l0 their capacity for self-goverunlelil,
and wlienev-_r tiiey open their country
to emiglation and settlement, they shall
bell enlltled to be erected iilto a Statl,
by the same name, on the same footing,
in all respects, as the original States.

Sec. 49. And be it further enacted,
That so sooli as the Presidentof the Uni-
ted States shall receive such official in-
formation as is herein before provided for,
of the ass.-pt of said nations in any one
of said territories to the provisions of
' act, he sliazl issue his proclamation,

mg ktroivn sllcli assent, and directing

orgalllzallon of such territory; and
l .l pur.-lie the saine course in regard to
.....b of said territories, the assent of the
nations in which shall be afterwards
made knowli to him, until all are organ-
ized ; and such of the provisions of this
act, ill regaid to said respective territo-
ries, as are to await slicli assent before
being in force and operative, shall be ill
force, as to the proper territory, from the
date of such proc.alilation.

These territories, to be thus devoted
to slavery now, and to be a. future i.-lavl:
State in the Union, are some four hull-
dred milcs long by two hundred broad.
The Indians are slave lioiders, and have
about two thousand negrocs now under
their control, Is it not time for the
friends of Freedom to look at this meas-

The Know-Nathings in Congress.
A \VAsli1:vr:ToN, Dec. 5.
~ The Know Notlilngs have entered
Congress in all llfIp0Slll_‘__{' manner. Mr
Sollers, of Maryland led the cortcge tlii.-
"vnorniilg, with b lls alill resplutlolis look-
ing to the cstablislilnent OI‘ their princi-
_ples in legislation and official appoint-
lnems, They give rise to an important
and suggestive debate, and astrnggle bl»-
-gan which lasted tlirougli the day, and
ended as a drawn battle. The subject
is still pctidiilg. Already, though ilo
member of the present Congress was
clected as ti Know Nothing, the party
-eems to have a majority in the House.
A popular feeling exists against the ap-
pointment of Sonic, Belml-lit and Owen,
which I think will compel their recall
There was not one member who spoke
to-day, except \Vitte, of Pennsylvaiila,
who didnot refer to tlicri as improper
representatives of the country abroad-
The new question will lleralige all par-
l.y calculations, and will submerge many
existing issues. The acutcst of the deiti-
ocr-atic politicians admit that it will have
us run until after 1856, but after the
Presidential election of that. year they
predict an immediate disruption of the
organization. This is a very encoura-
ging view of the case for the. Know
Nolhiiigs, who would probably comp;-0.
miss with all opponents on thesucccss
now promised them. ,.
There was one point in the day’s de-
bate which 'was very striking. Several
members opposed the resolutions with
lunch vebenience, but nonezof them cal-
led the Know Nothings hard names.-—
None of them abused the new party as a
gang of.cut-throats, assassins of the coli-
stitution, and so on. No one in short,
indulges in that abusive slang agaiiisl
native Americauisni and its principles,
wllicll formed the staple of the denunci-
allous of the Washington Union, previ-
ous tothe late elections. Power coni-
pels respect; and strength is a wonderful
corrective of insolenr-e.

Sl.i:Ion1.\'o.—These are delightful times, "all
the world and the rest of mankind,” with their
wives, sisters, cousins, and sweethearts, “ out
a sleighing,” while we poor devils must toil
away -‘mid the everlasting click of the type-
and clauk of the press. Our 2-50 dol bin stat.-
ding useless in the stable his nostrils distend-
ed with unsuent euergy—-with tail and car.-
rising to romantic attitudes, as he catches the
sound of distant bells—our bells, a1as—witll
only it few visible marks of their ancient pol-

‘lsb, hang rusting on a us.iI—whi1e our “ wif-

aud wee-todlin’ ” l-it looking from the window
atthe prancing steeds and dashing cutters, of
the light-hearted Jchus who shoot by our cot,
casting now and then a covetous desire, for
any other lot in life, than that of a Priulcr's.
But there’s no use repining, it"s now Saturday
and the paper must be got out on Monday.

A SELL.

Some malicious wag went to New Preston,
some weeks since and contracted for 20 sleigh.-
to be made in good manner and style, and de-
livered to Messrs. Stevens it Griffeth, by the
10th of this month, at $35 each. Thirty were
also ordered on same conditions for Mr. Ste-
phenson of the Nolwtilk Hotel. The first in-
voice for ‘Messrs. Stevens 3: Griffeth, arrived
on Saturday, and found our worthy landlorc
as much astonished, as an explanation of t-ht
sell that had been made, left the builder. Wl
presume the snow on the ground will enabli-
the parties to dispose of their runner.-. _li
seems that the joke was carried still further.
and two musicians were engaged for a ball to
come off on Friday night last, at the Nortvalk
Hotel The music came, but the ball didn't.
We hope the scape-grace will be caught and
rode on ajumper.

A Goon O.\'l~:.-—'I‘he long suffering and pa-
tience of our Bachelor host of the Norwalk
Hotel, added to an usual development of the
" milk of human kindness” (toivalds those of
his own sex, especially») often makes him I-ht
victim of professional sponges and travelling
mouutebanks, who chance to partake of hi.-
hospituble fare. It appears too. that since the
cold weather “ set in" he has been rathrr more
than usually victimized, bx this class of scape
graces. But the last one who undertook to
play off this popular trick. in his haste to get
off without paying his "' reckoning,” forgot to
take his " silver eyes” with him, thus unwit
tingly leaving value enough in the specs to
balance the accounts of several of his profes-
sion. Evl-n old bachelors have astrcak ol
good luck occasionally.

UNGENEIl0US.—-We learn that a. party 02
Sportsmen who went from Norwalk to Nevl
Canaan on a hunting excursion carrying a. gut.
upon their shoulder, and apistol in each pock-
-t., found after the most liberal libutions. that.
tliere was one bottle left. This they dedica-
ted to the sole survivor of the democratic par-
ty in the M-.iss-.lchusetts,Lsgislature who was
elected to defeat the Maine Law in that body.
It was left in the safe keeping of the landlord
of the village Hotel, but it seems he had been
suspected of vending the contraband article
and his premises were searched and this devo-
ted bottle seized upon. So Farewell to the
uine ordinare.

Jltotllcr Puzsianer Go-nc.—Died Saturday
Dec. 9th, at his residence in New Canaan, Mr
Anton Abbott, aged 90. He was one of tilt
few remaining survivors of the Revolution.-
Though his head was silvered over with th
frosts of many winters, be retained his full
mental faculties up to a short time prior to
his death, and often amused his friends by to-
counting the spirit—t-tirring scenes of those
days “ that tried men’s souls.” Lay the turf
lightly on his breast. ‘

Q, Has anybody heard from that Union
Thief Protection Society, which was re-organ
ized on Thanksgiving evening. We hope the
movers of that enterprise, were not so rhicll-en
/l.t‘llI‘lI.’(:' as to all stay at home that evening.

Asuoan.--We are sorry to learn that the
nun-ket sloop belonging to West-port Was driv
en ashore during the storm of Sunday last.
sustaining considerable damage.

 

Cli:<cr.x-:ss.—Little has been done of public
interest by our National Legislature since its
organization. The Know Nothing element
seems to be well developed in that body and
the invisible " Sam” commands much defer-
ence l'or grave Senators.

The Bridge.

its to admit of the passage of teams across.-—
We believe John Wasson, l3su., has the im-
mortal honor of being the first to cross the

Accident.

Ayoung man in the employ of J. Deady,
blacksmith, in this village, was kicked by 8
horse on the side of his head, and causing a
serious wound.

t, Mr. Edwin Hall, son of Rev. Dr. Hall,
ofNor'i7slk, and a graduate of Yale College.
and II student of East Windsor, has accepted
a call from the Congregational Church in New
Hartford, South, and is to be ordained on
Wednesday , December 13th--the Consociatlon
meeting the day before.

Q The President’s plan of favoring a few
cities with advance copies of the message, did
not work well this year. Copies sent South
could not be used for 8. long time, because the
correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune
was smart enough to get possession of the
Southern telegraph line, and transmitted a
lengthy syncposis of it to that paper before
word coud be sent to the places where there
were advance copies, announcing that it had
been delivered. This way, the messenger with
copies for Boston, brought up in a snow-drift,
near New Haven, was delayed a long time.
and did not reach Bos‘.-on until some ten hours
after the message had been printed in ‘New
York. ‘

w. The total cost of the National Capital
and adjacent grounds, up to the time of the
great extension, was $2.690,-159. The addi-
tions now making will add five millions lIIOI'(‘
lo this sum, and the accommodations then will
probably require no further increase for many
years to come.

@‘ The Hartford Times says that Hon.
Loren P. Wu]-lo, Commissioner of Pensions,
is lying seriously ill at Washington, the ef-
fects of over-exertion in his oflicial duties.

Q During the last fiscal year, there were
7,035,000 acres of the public land sold for cash
3,402,000 located by laud-warrants, and 14,000
by other certificates ; ll,000.000 acres report-
ed as swamp lands and given up to the States
where they lie ; and 1,751,000 acres given up
for internal improvements. The Commission-

he does not wish flogging to be restored.

 

§*'l‘hc fares on the Hudson River Railroad"
have been increased to the l'ull rate allowed
by law. The fare between New York and Al-
bany is now three dollars.

{Ir All the Cunard line of steamers but four
have been taken by the English government to
carry reinforcements and provisions to the
seat of war. The line between Liverpool and
Boston has been discontinued and the mail ser.
vice is performed by the line between Jersey
Jity and Liverpool. The line between Jersey
City and H-avre has been discontinued for the
same cause.

 

ޤ*Boston has just sent back to Europe
150 paupers from the differs nt Institutions of
the State. All but 28 return of their own free
will, the balance have been sentenced to be
returned. One of those who go back is an old
man who has been in this country for 36 years
and who has raised a family and buried them
all in America.

 

3'3‘ The Bangor Journal learns from per-
sons who are intimately acquainted with all
the facts in
the steamer Ocean,-—and with a gen-
tleman Who couvcrsed with Hiram K. Wing,
Express Conductor, a few hours before he died
that the instantaneous coufiagratiou was cau-
sed by the breaking of demijobns of ardent
spirits, which the Express conductor had in
his room to carry to parties on the Keunebec
ordering the same.

-, ..- . ,‘ _,.‘ .

a few suggestions. as to the tnctbotls 01
immediate relief which are-still within
the reach of many of otincitizeizs, touch-
-ing the severe pressure of the times.

We now propose al few observations
on the fitness, propriety, and did?! °I
such a course. External show and
equipage cost a great deal, and produce
no equivalent satisfaction. We earnest-
ly insist upon it, that it. does not bring
comfort. Real comfort lies within I
circle whose limits do not embrace the
daunting flumniery of Butterfly gaiety.
or the multitudlnous ceremonies of friab-
ionable society. But it reposes in do.
llglnful equilibrium, between the two
extremes, of» uncultivated rudeness, on
the one hand, and the feverish fastidious-
ness of extreme fashion on the other.’

Those who are striving to follow the
extreme fashions of society, must neces-
-arily be unhappy. And we might add_
deserve to be so for their folly.

Nor does it matter whether this full-
i_on relates to household furniture, exter-
nal equipage, social intercourse, or dress
Fashion is essentially atvrant, in any or
all of its extreme forms. And general-
ly outrages good sense, as much as good
morals. It can only live by tht most
cruel exactioils, and oppressive taxation-
Beforc its iron sway domestic thrift and
happiness, personal religion and morale,
as well as life. and health is sure to fall-
From it, infidelity fills her ranks, Con-
sumption draws her victims, and false
religion her votaries. The severe sini-
pliclty of the New England Puritan and
the Pennsylvania Quaker find their nat-
ural antagonism in the extreme fashion-
able usages of the present times, ‘ and
the reactlori from the one to the other I:
alarmingly disastrous. Prosperity and
happiness was the attendant of the for-
mer, while bankruptcy and ruin are the
inevitable consequences of the latter.-—
Is it not time for good men to pause, and
at least make an effort to return to the
purity and simplicity of former days "2-
We would not be understood to con-
demn fashion, simply as such, or regard.
ed as custom, or usage in its necessary
forms, but in its popular sense. and its
llnperious and autocratic forms.

When business habits, social customs,
ro‘igious ceremonies, and everything else
are perverted, corrupted and poisoned
by it, we think it high time to bolt, and
proclaim anew our own independence.
When it comes to this, that a man cati-
not say his prayers but after a particular
fasliion—_-when even public religious
worship is constrained to simper and
miilce with all the exquisite “Miss-Nam
cyism" of fashionable pride and foll_v——
when the sanctity of private grief must
find its sacredness iinmolated at the
shrine of this monster, and the heartless
funeral pageant, the scape-goat that is
to bear away its sorrows, it is time to
protest.

When its unconcionable exactions are
such as to crush the very manhood out
of thetvorkilig classes, and_,niako even
existence slavery, is it not time to stop.

\Ve say then, to those upon whom
the pressure of these hard times fall
with such‘ heartless cruelty, break the
famlspell. Come back to simple hab-
its—cut off your superfluities—-reduce
your expenditures, and be a man once
more. Give no more large and expen
sive parties—or if you must. have a par-
ty, call ill the poor and destitute, and
make their hearts glad with your boun
ty. Then shall "the poor bless you in
the gate,” and the blessings of those that
are ready toperislislaall come upon you
Five. dollars given to the poor looks like
a large sum, and perhaps even twenty-
five cents are given reluctantly. But a
fashionable party may cost you a hund-
red, and yet you do not mind it. Nay.
perhap-i twice that amount, and tvhat is
your rt ward P You have simply fed
those who are abundantly able to feed
themselves, and your reward is the honi-
age paid by your guests, but even this is
quite dubious. MORE Anon.

3:?‘ The total loss of the African con-
tract mail steam-packet Forerunner, her
valuable cargo, with fourteen of her pas-
sengers and crew, may now be added to
the list of reckless and appalling st- am-
boat disasters. She was on her passage

cargo; when on leaving Funchal she
struck upon a sunken rock, and in I90
minutes afterwards sunk. The survivors

@ Since Walker was cleared by the
California courts for leading the expedi-
lion :0 Sonora, and since the censure
cast upon General VVl*.ol by Mr. Secre-
tarv Davis for endeavoring to stop such

powerful one will be immediately organ

peninsula of California.
