While on the Inns the sun and showers
Of changeful April played.
We dropped the seed o'er hill and plain,
Beneath the sun of May,

The Fugitive slave Laws of l?').'l nnd
Considered,
Te ?Ar Editor of The Tribune:
There is evidently much excitement in different
parts of the country, in consequence of the pas?
sage of the Fugitive Slave Law at tbe late Ses?
sion of Congress, and good citizens are anxious
to know their duty in relation to it and their obli?
gations to obey this most remarkable law. It is
pretended by its trainers to be based upon a pro?
vision of the Constitution. The correct view of
the question requires some observance of the state
of affairs "at the time of its adoption, and the rea?
sons lor it, as stated in its preamble, are "To
form a more perfect union, to promote domestic
tranquillity, and to secure the blessings of Lib?
erty," Ac. It does not appear that the escaping
of Fugitives from labor was a moving cause in it^
adoption, for under the articles of Confederation
there was no provisions for tne return of such Fu?
gitives, and it was six years after its adoption, be?
fore any law was passed by Congress to provide
lor their being delivered up.
Tbe want of a National Government for security
at home and abroad, was the moving eatise for a
more perfect Union, nnd as such Government
would oe the supreme law of the land the ques?
tions most important to bo settled were those re?
lating to taxation, representation and the prohibi?
tion of the Foreign Slave Trade.
Those subjects would effect different sections
more or less favorably, according to the rule adopt?
ed to regulate the same. Consequently, what?
ever there was of Compromise, related to these,
and gave character to questions more incidental in
their nature, and the Convention decided that
to consider Slaves as property, to be taxed to
carry on the Government, without representation,
whs throwing the political power into the hands
ol the Northern States. To consider them as
men entitled to representation, while they were :
thattlts in law, was obnoxious to a large majority ?
ol the Convention, and the Compromise was, '
while they remained in thai condition, to call
them persons entitled to the consi loration in the
federal ratio of free citizens, as three is to live '
for their number, not considering them as proper
*}*> Jot ptopeti'y could not be represented with any
propriety;
\Tlns being the interpretation, land undoubtedly !
the true one,) the clause providing for the delivery I
et fugitives from labor must partake ol like inter- j
pretation, and therefore be applicable to all classes
61 persons held to service.
The claim upon the fugitive is for his service,
and not lor him as a chattel to be sold, if such is
the purpose of the claimant, and the right to such
Service becomes a subject of legal inquiry.
The chattel principle, not beim; recognised by
the Constitution, if it exists at all, it is one of the
reserved rights ol the States, which they only can
m sum sin .
By this it appears that this requirement of the
Constitution upon ns as citizens of a Free State,
is to pass no law to prevent the delivery up of
Persons held to service or labor, if they are so held
by the laws of the States from which they have
escaped. Hero the question arises; who shall de
cide the right or title to service. The Constitu?
tion declares that questions of ibis kind shall tie
decided by the Judiciary, in accordance witii '' dde
process of law."
These wordis have some meaning, and what is
it Ctf&t of any rule, of proceeding that Con
>y a patty vot", ander the operation of the
11 question, may enact ? Certainly not, lor

; An old man is living in thut place who came
I yeiirs ago, when the slaveholders had sold his
wife and children to go " down South,'' to a re
tornlcss distance, and a hopeless bondage. He
could never see them again, lie is an honest, in?

in good standing in the Baptist Church ot the
village, lit: married again.?(I do not stop to
take exception to thnt, as he lias high authority
lor it, if ho knew it, in his own Church, namely:
a Southern Baptist Association of Ministers, who
declared "that such separation among persons sit?
uated as our slaves are is civilly a separation by
dcttth, and they believe that in the sight of God it
would be so viewed. To tori,id second marriages
in such cases, would be

-i? STOVES: STOVES!?It*is now admitted by all
w ho ha?, e used this celebrated Stove, dial il far exceeds any
now in use for heating parlors, store*, offices, hal'.s. i.e.?
The subscriber has also couaOructed a COOK-STOVE, on
the same principle, both of which cannot bo surpassed for
economy of fuel, cleanline**, and durabiUty, So confidant
is the undersigned of their superiority; that he offers to re
Autd the purchase money If, aller a trial of two weeks, the
StOVS should not prove satisfactory.
The public are invited to examine the principle on which
the fuel is luinil m tins Stove, it being entirely now. and pro?
nounced by some of the best judges the hostTor giving heat,
and at the same time the most economical lu fuel ol any
stove now m use. A few of the muiy improvements are
here so; forth:
1. They have no grate In the bottom, the coal resting upon
a solid surface. No cold air is admitted to deaden the tiro.
i The air is heated before it roadies the tiro, by passing
through a hot air chamber, consequently the coal is all con?
sumed.
3. It is airtight, and so constructed that it needs no rak
ins ; is free from dual, and homo cuji escape into the room.
4. It is economical; the application of the heated air, in
Connection w ith the WCt thai it caunol be disturbed by rak?
ing, causes a complete combustion of the coal?a principle
never before obtained hi stove*.
A Silver Medal has been awarded this Stove at the last
Fair of the American Institute.
The subscriber deems il unnecessary to Insert any of the
numerous testimonials he has received lu favor of the above
Sieve, but can produce them, w nh any reference that may
be required. |i>Jl Im) L. Wtioi). iff W.uor-st.
