l'eople too often judge men by their out
side appearance, seeming to forget that it
is the heart that constitutes the gentleman,
and that the raiment a man wears is no
more a tent of gentility than the heard
that lie wears upon his fttce. Labor and
gentility are not antagonists ; and the con
nection between them in thuir true mean
ing iSiUO close, that they are almost insep
arable. We do . not .pretend to say that
every man who labors is a gentleman, but
lubor is necessary to develop tlie good

who saw him but a day before his death,
in the bloom of health. This sail event

heeding the imminent danger of his posi

to relate, had liis neck cruahed under the
upright piece, producing instantaneous
death.
He was about eight or nine years of age.
All who were acquainted with the mild

and would not permit them to be violated.
Ho knew that threats of personal violence
had been made if he attempted to speak
or to offer any explanation. After further

would show that the abolitionists and free

candidate who was on the Uuflalo plat
form was pledged for the total prohibi

Van liuren in 1848, voted for, the repeal
of tlie Missouri compromise.' Having
disposed of tlie free soilers and abolition

The whig party in all the free States in
1848 were pledged to the Wilinot provi
so, and the exclusion of slavery in all the
Territories. Consequently they, too, were
