During the late dreadful tornado which passed over Mississippi, tearing up trees, blowing down houses, and killing cattle, an incident occurred near Pauld ing, m that State, which is worthy of record: " A young married couple were alone in the forest, occupants of a new home,' aud distant two miles from the nearest neighbor. They had retired to rest, and were absorbed in slum ber wheu the roar of the hurricane came, like sonorous wailing through the primeval trees, and fierce winds struck their house, tumbling the logs around and about them. The lady, after much effort, succeeded in extricating her self, but found, to her momentary dismay, that her husband was entombed 111 the wreck of their dwelling, and that it would be impossible for her to relieve hiui unaided. She reflected but a moment, when, turning to her husband, . nhe uttered some cheering' words, and announced her determination to go in quest of assistance. Forth she went in the midst of the howling storm, the winds singing a requiem over the ruin they had caused, and the stately trees still crashing in their fall before the omnipotence of the tempest. But she heeded not the danger; buoyed by a strong affection she moved on ward, an incarnation of heroism and self-sacrificing love, through the hurricane's track, ,,aiid reached unharmed the residence of her neigh bor. Assistance was procured, and her hus band restored to as true a wife as ever hallow ed with felicities the life of man.". A alue of (jrYMXASTics.

""Two or three months after ' eCoflressional, session during which , this aiul the rest of he' compromise pleasures were adopted had long conversation upon the subject if iih;Mr Clay on Jiis return from Cuba, at theThouse of his relative Mr Thomas Smith iiv this city. ITnou that occasion Mr Clay ex pressed much cocr!Nat the discontent of the North on account oXtSe fugitive slave law, and remarked, that, V tcould have remained in Washingtoii and acted upon the committee by winch the bill; was reported to. the Senate, he could, he fully believed, have caused- it to be reported and passed in a fornifar less offensive to the Noth and perhaps , entirely satisfactory to both North and South, bat that after his departure for Boston'oh account of ill-health, an influential member of the Committee, who was opposed to the whole system of compro mise measures, proposed and carried provision apparently designed to make it obnoxious. We asked Mr Clay what he himself would have proposed if he had stayed and acted 011 the committee. He replied, that he would have proposed a provision that a person claimed as a fugitive slave should, on being . renmndea to the place whence he escaped, have a jury trial there to test his right to freedom, if he desired it. We suggested that the fugitive could have this under the law as it passed. Yes, said M7' Clay, but the people of the North suppose, Y it is to a great extent true, that a uegro, ed and held as a slave, does not, as a general rule, understand his legal rights; tha either by his own ignorance or by his master's authority or management,' ic is prevented from taking .1.- c io.ro! redress; tue necessary sirjis itir uuinnimg "-o"' -t or that he is, hurried oAm' fjr. r& wm Ttgtrt xirireemnw to on r , tne. q ue wouia nave proposea tnat provision snouid oe made iu the lawiibr the slave's beinrr taken back to the very neighborhood whence be shoud be alleged to have escaped, and for ascertain ing whether he actually claimed a right to free dom, aud, if he did claim it, for having the question of his right brought immediately be fore a jury of the vicinage without any active agency of his own. And the old patriot added that many of the people of the North under stood, and the rest could easily be made to understand that the rights of a colored person would be in no danger from such a jury, there being nothing in the human shape that the people of the South more abhor than a kidnap per, or a man who claims a free person as his slave." We arc sorry to be obliged to express our belief that the opposition to the Fugitive Slave Law at the .North would not be materially abated by any modifications of the present Law, whatever they might be, " which should leave it sufficient for the surrender of fugitive slaves, as demanded by the Constitution. The real opposition, so far as it is honest, and not a mere political game, is not against the mode. but the thing. It is not mere trial by Jury which will satisfy a It r" " portion of the oppon ents of the Fugitive SIe Law, but a trial by Jury in the State where the fugitive should chance to be arrested. And why? Because they know that fugitive iffajres would generally "be found iu the hot-beds of Abolitionism," and that a jury collectedi-in such a place, or in almost any place at the iSorth, would be likely to include one or more abolitionists, - whose consciences would be ljss disturbed by a false oath than by surrendering the slave; and that consequently, inv &Usuch cases, the jury , would be unable to 9""Jte.
