But they were not long in finding that Barnum had’ the monopoly of this sort of thing in Gotham, and to make any headway they must enroll themselves under his banner. Barnum’s museum was now placarded with a colossal painting of the -‘ bearded lady,’? and & new seusation was of course produced amovg the quid nunes of that Provorbially excitable city. In order to deepen and increase it, this cute speculator in human credulity and hun bug bothought him of one of the most clever original of all his various dodges. He ac- taal’y had himself arrested and committed to the first emigrants inte a new United States Territory may consiitationally legislate, from the start, to prevent the owners of slaves from carrying them into such common property of the suvereigua of the Confoderaey. Upon this dvctrize—the supremacy of which ie all they ark to insare the triumph of their dosire to prevent the admission of another slaveholding State into the Confederacy —they stand as wanfully by Senator Douglas, as, Inst winter, te St pong rerirey pias a spiomes ere ‘ i ; 7, cs ae Ou terns to aust the user.‘ : he and his stood by them in ¢heir war on the | “the Toowbs” by one of bis own employees, are aituated within ‘ono mil'e walk of the Couitee position of the Dewveracy of Congress and the | on the charge ot exhibiting « man in woman's Tee ener information peply to tap arate or ae Demveratic National Administration with ref- mg Pa Sarr ere .. | Welock aud 3 o’olock p.m. no 5-tf erence to Kanses affairs. 0 processof time an infant Esau made his | —° appearance, and not long atter this, the Clo- fullias havi i ug“ played out’ with Barnum, were engaged by the great Western oxhibitor of human phenomena, and commenced their travels uuder bis auspices, and in the course of them, made sundry visits to this city, where they certainly did excite a great deal of very natural curivsity. The result bas been, as we loarn, that the lucky Frenchman and bis erinigerous wife and son have netted ten thousand dollars by their exhibitions; and now, just as it was supposed they were on the eve it strikes us that the platitudes of Mr. Doug- I las in those specches—his vehement Protesta- tions of devotion to the rights of the States them- selves, within their own limits, to immunity from interference in their domestic affairs from beyond their owa limits—are properly appre- ciated here.
