Statesman. Kep'o Soldiers in Wooster. On Saturday last, our town was honored for a few momenta by the presence of a regiment of colored soldiers who were on their way from Camp Delaware to Fortress Monroe. They were officered partly by'white men and we presume made a fine thd soldierly appearance, though judging from a Democratic point of.view w 'fcoflld'nt see it." To our tin ap preciative cvcb, they pretty generally bore a strong resemblance to Black Bill, when he has on bis ''soger cJofhes." While ihe -cars waited, .the. niggers shouted lustily for Bmngh.and in the intervals, questioned the little beys around the Depot, if they " had auy pretty white sistcre at home," and begged the little girU to " kisa them." Thene are owi.e of the firtt of the lessons the Aboli-tronTsts are teaching them. It is a pity some oi tlie leading men ol that persuasion had not been at the Depot on Saturday, to satisfy the inquirers of their colored brethren. liefore the departure of the cars, a fight occurred between some of the soldiers, ami roe or two Irishmen. Alctiowjiv, w-c?. rnv Irishman of Wooster, attempting to make peace Wtween them, one of the valiant sons of Htm thrust a bayonet into him. tearing his coat and giving him a scratch under the arm. The nigger wa justified in the action by Republicans abont town, as he was a nigger, and the man he assaulted "only an Irishman." as the Abolitionists expressed it.

Not such let your ambition be ; but rather that which Pope ami after .him, Lord Mansfield, proclaimed " the pursuit of noble ends by noble means," and yours." too, that popularity which follows, not that which is run after.

But the statesman must be made as well as bom. ilia voyage is through mid ocean and in storm He sails under orders.- His port is ascertained and prescribed before he sets ont, and.it is his duty to reach it; and so like the majestic ocean steamer, he sails on; and. J Aralart tse w14, against ths Ude, ' ' ' StiUstsadies with aa upright keL" Demosthenes, more - than two thousand years ago, in his great oratioa for the crown, well distinguished between these two characters, declaring that while they were alike in nothing, they differed chiefly in this that the statesman boldly and honestly- proclaimed his opinion before the event, and thus made him self responsible to fortune, to the times, to his countrymen, to the world; while the sycophant or de nagogue was silent till the event had happeued, his and then governed speech and his conduct accordingly. . And now allow me to add, that though ron may be patriots and yet not statesmen, 'the great etatesm n is always a patriot. - His love of country is as welj a principle aa an emotion. Duty enters largely into it; hence it is stable, enduring. It is not sensational certainly not a mere, feeling of gratitude ; least of all, in the meaning of that word as defined by Dr. Johnson : "a lively sense of favors vet to ba re ceived." He loves hia' country hnh: wilv well, ne never 'sacrifices her real though more remote interests to a Dooakr elunmr: and still less at the demand of those who hohl tle power.; Neither will he corrupt the virtue nor tarnish th h'nnnr f 1. h-r m0re sordid i..tpraf R.f l. i;n i. - r --.... w. ... luir tate ,,e example of Aristi.les, who reprtrtin to tne Athenian that . ..r,; Ifnrth.Ir I...od;D- ..'...i... t.rLTl..i i . - . . .......

I can comprehend loyalty to a king, and especially to a queen ; but as an American, I choose to adhere to the gooil and liomt oH republican word, "patriotism," and to cherish the virtue which it has always bern used to express. Aspire, then, young; gentlemen, you who would pursue a public course, to be patriot-statesmen. Have faith absolute, unquestioning, immovable that faith which speaks to itself iiv the silence of the heart's own beating, saying, If not to-day or this time, thento-morrow, or next or some other day, at some other time, in some other vray, all will be well. Without this, no man ever achieved greatness. Be incorruptible in your integrity ; be inexo- rable in your deliberate, well-considered pur poees ; be apnalled by no dimculttes. . Ampli fy your minds; bntstilPraore, be great in soul. It is this which shall lift vou up high above the earth, and assimilate you to that whioli ia divine. Without it,-you will but creep with dusty and droiling and wearied wing. Without it. think r ot to endure that cruel and cruis ing wetght of doing and suffering whioh he must liear velio faithfully and with. heroism, at any time, hot most of.all in periods of great public convulsion, would act the part of the patriot-statesman.

Statesman. Kep'o Soldiers in Wooster. On Saturday last, our town was honored for a few momenta by the presence of a regiment of colored soldiers who were on their way from Camp Delaware to Fortress Monroe. They were officered partly by'white men and we presume made a fine thd soldierly appearance, though judging from a Democratic point of.view w 'fcoflld'nt see it." To our tin ap preciative cvcb, they pretty generally bore a strong resemblance to Black Bill, when he has on bis ''soger cJofhes." While ihe -cars waited, .the. niggers shouted lustily for Bmngh.and in the intervals, questioned the little beys around the Depot, if they " had auy pretty white sistcre at home," and begged the little girU to " kisa them." Thene are owi.e of the firtt of the lessons the Aboli-tronTsts are teaching them. It is a pity some oi tlie leading men ol that persuasion had not been at the Depot on Saturday, to satisfy the inquirers of their colored brethren. liefore the departure of the cars, a fight occurred between some of the soldiers, ami roe or two Irishmen. Alctiowjiv, w-c?. rnv Irishman of Wooster, attempting to make peace Wtween them, one of the valiant sons of Htm thrust a bayonet into him. tearing his coat and giving him a scratch under the arm. The nigger wa justified in the action by Republicans abont town, as he was a nigger, and the man he assaulted "only an Irishman." as the Abolitionists expressed it.

He who handles the musket in America will obtain the ballot."

Your vigils bave "ontwatchel the bear." But youthful ambition is eager and impatient. It sees nothing but Fame Proud Temple, and forgets 'bat it shines - afar.

It counts every moment of delay arid difficulty on the way, as a moment Iwt. " There is, indeed, a false goddess whose fane is near and easy of access. Hard by. is the altar of Mam mon. Fraud, Falsehood and Violence are their joint sibyls and priests.. A tumultuous crowd of idolatrous and abject worshippers throng around. But Notoriety is not Fame, and her devotees soon perish. Not such let your ambition be ; but rather that which Pope ami after .him, Lord Mansfield, proclaimed " the pursuit of noble ends by noble means," and yours." too, that popularity which follows, not that which is run after. But to obtain this you must learn early that most difficult of all lesions to labor and to wait. At twenty you think forty an old age.
