27, WW. J2 tf A Modest Request. Th Independent is an enterprising and successful paper. It number among it contributor able writer. It oombin with grat skill religion and commerce.

We believe it i the journal that has first printed regularly th names of those who are unfortunate in their business matters as to be obliged to go to protest. In one column is recorded th state of th church in another the tat of the mrket. On one pge you may read the last Star paper ot Mr. Beech-r, or an article from Mr. Stow which cannot by any means be duller than the seriel which is now running through if not running down th Atlantic Monthly or th latest anti-Slavery tulmination of Dr.

Cheever, or a new poem by 'Whlttier. On the next you find a history of Wall street gambling daring the last week, with hint as to what will probably be the lucky card next week. But extent and variety of matter hav been aided by other resource. The Independent enjoys a large share of a very important clement of success in life, which convention sustain us in calling brass. Last week a copy of the paper was sent to us with th publishers' card marked for our special attention.

It contains an announcement to the effect that "we will exchange for one year with any paper" thst will "iutert our advert iiemtnt two or three timet and notice the tamt editorially When it is known that the annual subscription price of the Independent is two dollars, and that "our advertisement" would occupy about half a column of the Stab and be worth, at the Indeptndenfi rale for the advertisement which fill a large portion of it space, fifteen dollart, the modesty of the request will be once apparent and we shall be excused for declining the liberal offer. Th coolness of the secular press is sometimes slightly frigid, but only a emi-religiou journal could perpetrate the piece of impudence to which we refer. We should doubtless be edified by the regular perusal of the Independent. But when we wish to learn how the good work is progressing InQuaehwag, or how many of the brethren have recently slipped up their stock operations, we shall buy a single copy at a cost of ix-SDd a quarter cents. Please exchange.

Wcateru Attention to Art, Having published an article, recently, in regard to the orders sent abroad, for the tupply of Western Libraries with book, wa take pleasure in showing by the following article, that Art is by no means neglected in that great and productive region. By the way, thia making of publio exhibitions from private collections, from which work are allowed to be selected for the public benefit, is a very good mode, end tends to the progress of art and the encouragement of artists, while it Indicates the liberality and generosity of the fortunate possessors of fine works. This mode has been resorted to several time in Brooklyn, bringing out on each occasion a fine display of the older as well accumulation of wealth, and an utter neglect of those profession who object is imply to elevate the mind, refine the passions, impart an eleganoe to life to the rt of Poetry, Painting and Musiot t'mrcA Jieeord, May 1.

Marriage Among; tilavee In South t'arolimsu Report of the Special Commiitet Appoint ed by tne frotetianl JLpucopai convention, at ill SMiion in 1358, fa report on tht duty of Clergymen in relation to tht Marriagt of Slavet. The Committee appointed by th Con vention to consider and report under what circumstance a clergyman may unite slave in marriage, respectfully submit th following report: Here follows the report, which omit, inasmuch as the substance thereof ia embodied in th followinit concluding resolu tion, which the Committee recommend to the Convention, to wit: 1. Resolved, That the relation of husband and wife la of divine institution, and the duties which appertain to itare of universal obligation, and bind with th same force the master and the slave, 2.

That the ininnetioo of our Savior for bidding man to separate those whom God ha joined together, i obligatory npon the conscience of every Christian master, and prohibits the separation of those wno nave been united in marriage. 8. That the power over the slave, which is conferred upon the master by the law of of God and, therefore, every Christian master should so regulate the sale or disposal of a married, slave as not to infringe the divine injunction for bid Jinn the separation of husband and wife. 4. That while this obligation is generally recognized by Christians, yet many cases arise iu which separations among married slaves occur from voluntary abandonment of duty by the partie themselves, or from circumstance beyond their control, and it is desirable that some judgment should pronounced by the church which may eatablish for its members uniform rule of conduct.

5. That the cases of separations produced by the voluntary action of either of the parties to tne marriage contract are ei-nresslv condemned by or Saviour and this sentence, ss already stated, embraces master and slave: but involuntory epar- tion, produced by cause over which the married parties have no control, do not appear to come within the scope of any direction recorded in the Scripture. 8. That in theabience of such direction, the sound judgment of the church, guided by the general principle of religion, and directed by the great Head of the Church, must be exercised in devisinir the best rule for the action of its members. 7.

That where an involuntary and final separation of married slaves has occurred, the case ol me suuerer is to oe uisiiuguiu-ed from any human agency which has separated them. The latter is responsible to uoa lor uisregaruing uis comuiuuus, former are entitled to sympathy and con- sideialion. 8. That in such cases of separation, where neither nartv ia ia fault, and where separation appears to be permanent and final, the relusol to nuowaseconu marriuge would often produce much evil and liaru- ahin. and this Convention, in giving it judgment in favor of uch marriage, would do ao in the Qua inea language ipunn uy tha Anoatla to eases ot eelt restraint ii they cannot contain, let them marry for it is better to marry than to barn." All wlneh is respectlully sutimittea.

Mai 11, 1859. C. (i. Mkmminoeb, Chairman. Tub Mormons at Chicago.

At the Michigan Central Depot grounda yesterday morning arrived a special train from Detroit, Bearing a smau party oi matter Dav Saints and SainteBSes, only seven hun- Tired snd fifty strong, a fresh arrival in this country by the Liverpool liner packet ship William Taptcott, at New York, on rnday last. Thcv were an asserted cargo of humani ty, made up from the several proselyting agencies of the Elders of Joseph Smith, bu; chiefly representing the British isle and the north ol Europe. As they embarked from the long truin and tiled into the depot aud waiting room, the spectacle drew numerous curious spe tutors, who rather pressed upon the entrances to the crowded ladies' rooms, some of the sinners perhaps more or lea lavora- bly inclined to the Mormon faith by this or that glimpse at its sisternooa. une stout matron, in fact, seemingly became scandalized at her share of the inspection, and dashed the Gentile crew by a proposl-t on to "pass 'round the hat, if the show Is to he kept up." We learn that among the number one disciple ha in his family five waters, to each of whom he ia at once brother-in-law and husband. Another has a mother and her daughter in the aame relation to hi bearded and sanctimonious looking elf.

Chicago Tribune, May 10. Mr, Rarey, after performing before the royal family attserun, nas gone ou mj oi. Paipmlmrcr. where hi hands have been kept quite full. On, the 10th gav a performance before the Emperor aud hia lamilo and two of hia brothers, beside sev eral princes ud princesses.

The first subject was a horse who had just kicked hi box to pieces snd killed his groom, and Mr. Krev exhibited him a few day' training a obedient a a circus hone, and ready to obey order, which were given him from the other end of the riding school. The second was a wild, tinbrokeo, entire horse, from the steppes of Russia and he, too, was completely subdued in so short a time that the Emperor not only publicly expressed hi gratification, but ordered a report to be published in the papers. The Illustrated London AVws says that Mr. Rarey has finally concluded arrangements villi the Horse Guards to teach the British cavalry, and he returns for that purpose to London on the 1st of June.

liuou. 9 Other paper indicate the following moTementi. A Philadelphia oorrespon-de-ut of the Eerald says: "Some three weeks sine the Hon. 3. A.

Douglas spent almost an entire night at the boate of Mr. Forney, in Philadelphia, discussing the oourse to be taken as to the Charleston Convention Mr. Douglas ar guing in favor ot going into the Conten tion and submitting to lis action, Willi Mr. Forney declared be would bare nothing to do with it, and would fight any one nominated by that Convention, even Douglas himself. Douglas finally asked what be (Forney) would advise him to do to which Mi.

Forney said that if Jie was in his (Douglas's) place he would go to Chicago and announce himself as a candidate for the Presidency, in the same manner that town constable in the Western towns announce themselves for office, and pay no attention whatever to the Conven lion and let a Convention meet and nominate a Vice-President to run with him, and trust to the result. Douglas's opinion all the way through waa that it was best course to go into the Charleston Convention and abide iU results." A correspondent of Tht Ckarlttton Mtr cury, writing from Washington, and, in his onnestimation.very knowingly, makes terrible disclosures of combinations against the rights of the South, and says J- I learn, upon good authority, that Douglas and Mr. Buchanan have had a meeting, and a full explanation of their politioai differences. The result of their interview wasa coalition between the two, based upon the condition that Douglas should reserve to himself the, right of expressing openly his peculiar views on Squatter Sovereignty that is to say, virtually adhering to non-intervention by Congress in Kansas affairs; while Mr. Buchanan and bis Cabinet, declaring the absurdity of the idea of Territorial Sovereignty, concede to him the correctness of his views on the Kansas-Nebraska act, denying the right of Congress to intervene for the protection of Slavery in the Territories.

In fact, it amounts practically, and, so far as the South is concerned, is a com plete back out by the Administration, and the triumph ot Douglas. lie Is allowed to enjoy his treachery, and be a good Democrat. How this is to be made palatable to Brown, Davis, Hunter, Mason and others, who declared their unqualified opposition to this new phase of Squatter Sovereignty in the recent debate in the Senate, and their determination to be no longer cheated, is yet to be seen. "Before Mr. Buchanan's Administration doses, I ezpeot to see the State Rights party and nearly the wholeSouthern Press opposed to it.

The Union cannot be preserved by further concessions of Southern rights. "I have good authority, alsoj for saying that serious differences upon matters of principle, as well as policy, have disturbed the harmony of the Cabinet." Per contra, the Washington correspondent of Tht Philadelphia Prett saya "All the stories now circulating in the press to the effect that Senator Douglas has made certain peaceful propositions to the Administration, and that he is on the eve of being reconciled, die, are fabrications. Judge Douglas has nothing to compromise nothing. He will maintain the fiosition he has assumed in theSenate and the canvass in Illinois to the end and if the Administration comes to it, so much the better for it." "Occasional," of Tht Philadelphia Prut states that it is not doubted that the administration baa issued orders to the differ ent Northwestern States where the Demo crats have nerly unanimously accepted the Douglas platform, to allow no man to be sent to the Charleston Convention who does not accept the new theory of Congressional Interference in the Territories. Cly Parke.

The act of the Legislature, passed at th last session, creating a Commission charged with the duty of providing public parks for the city, is timely and judi-oious. The history of all large cities shows that this subject is postponed too long. Parks are to oities what ventilators are to buildings, with this difference after a building is completed ventilators are com paratively easy of introduction, bnt when a city becomes densely populated and closely built up, the laying out of parks Is next to an impossibility. We hope then that the Commissioners who are competent men and interested in the tasteful ornamentation of the city will give the in tention of the legislature full effect. Let them not be parsimonious in setting apart land for Darks.

The cost, whatever it may be will be repaid teJfold to the city and to those apon whom the assessment is laid. Such Commission some years since might have secured for Brooklyn, on the Heights, one of the most magnificent pub Ho places in the world. The whole ot this commanding plateau which must be val- ued not so much in its own extent as in the wide reach of land and water view it embraces -should have been conveyed to the people, their heirs and assigns forever, rather than sacrificed to private purposes. We du not know where to find a point of observation that shall equal our Brook' lyn Heights. At your feet lies the dusty bustling Metropolis, its closely packed stores and warehouses crowding into the water on either side, a spire here and there shooting above the halls of traffic.

Your eye follows the dense mass of architecture as it stretches on toward Fort Washington, taking in at a glance more of the city than can be seen from any other position. You trace on either side the North and East Rivers, and beyond the quiet shorea of New Jersey; while to the South you watch the departing steamer a she passes over the threshold of our State and pushes out into the Atlantic. But we only suggest what is a familiar experience to our citixens. We refer now to the subject, simply to remind the Park Commissioner that a brief remnant of the Heights still within their sjrasp, and to ask them in behalf of tli publio to protect that small space for us against the encroachments of bricks and mortar. i A Bxrman Ladt The Louisville Journal describe how an Interesting and refined Kentucky lady severely whipped a husband whom had discarded.

Ik Polllloal Ckrn Boar. Many rapid movements are now making on th political chase board, looking to th eoncltuloa of th Presidency in 1860. Why cannot soma diplomat! Morphy be found wbo can play the eight games blindfolded I Flut Ther 1 th Constitutional Anti-Slavery Higher-Uw game, with no ad-mixture ot Americanism. Thi i supposed to be th speciality of Mr. Seward.

It Is not to be disguised that this game has playing itself with a fair amount of as th triumphs in various states have demonstrated. Mr. Seward aeems to have been personally about a Indifferent to bis chance a Maeltel's automaton, and while most of th ambitions aspirants are at fever-heat, ha quietly gon to Europe. evidently think the principle will take of Itself. SeooifD There is John J.

Crittenden, the gallant Kentuoklan, who is surrounded with th halo of th reminiscence of Henry Clay. He wishes no further extension to Slavery and desires that Union shall be preserved, and It existence in no wise endangered. He holds the American Doc trine strongly, without much of a North ern leaning. TmiD Governor Banks, th iron-man of Massachusetts Republican with slight tincture ot th American did not vote at all upoa th recent two-year's amendment, happened to be out of the Stat. FooarB Senator Wilson, Republican, with American antecedents, opposed to the two year amendment and voted against it, strong on Kansas, strong for Republican progress among th settler in the new state.

Furra John Minor Botta, bold and gallant South-American telling home-truths to th South ltlf preeerver of old Whig Idea. If he does not get th Presidency might tak charge of the Egyptian Antiquities of Mr. Abbott Sixth. Senator Douglas, with hii ver. lion of "Popular Sovereignty" which Mr.

Buchanan's salesmen insist upon designating aa "Squatter Sovereignty." Now a recent decision of Somebody against Pha-lon, In regard to "Cocoaine," (which means.the milk in the cocoa-nut) has determined, that no man has a right to steal another' trade-mark. Jam Buchanan is clearly subject to uit. He ha stolen the trade-mark of Senator Douglas, and is trying to sbuffl him off with th "Squatter" adjective. But Douglas know his rights, will an old Buck in the "pie-poudre court" of th democracy, and expert to recover a heavy verdict. Douglaa insists that th legitimate popular aovereignty ia the right of all oitixens to go into a territory with slaves or without, and that when th people have formed a Territorial or State Government such government may abolish or permit slavery.

Seventh." Old Buck," James Buchan an, who is just now the best abused man In th Union. Th party bag-piper, and harper, who formerly sung his praise in thi region, hr lately ung them upside-down. Their muaio with a (light variation of th verse of Alexander' feast would run as follows: ey sing Buchanan groat and good, By too sever a fair, Fallon, fallen, fallen; Fallon from his nigh estate, And weltering in hia blood, On the bare earth expoied he lies, Without a friend to clou his eyes. That ia unlass may be revived by hi own nostrum of Popular Sovereignty," which hi vonder claim to be the true original Jacob." Thi inaUt that neither th early settler of a Territory, nor the Territorial Legitlatur, hav any power over Slavery, during th Territorial condition. Slavery may go npon th domain and fix and fasten there, and it is the duty ot Congress to protect it until the region 1 treeted into a State, when the State nwy hav some power over it.

Eighth. -And now oomes Governor Wis, tb great letter-writer of Virginia. Thl great eoek, on hi own Southern dung hill, iniist with mateble verbosity that Ctmgrttt alone ha control of th tubject and no other power. He look to th intervention of Congroe from tint to last, and thi intervention must be in favor of tb ettled Constitutional right of slavery. In the predicament what (hall be don.

On paper of th South at Jeaet take up th txploded hand-gresad of dissolution ot th Union. The Mobile (Ala.) Mtrtury state boldly that ther art at present aotiv movements going on In the City of Mobil with a view to a dissolution ol th Uplon. Th Mercu. rysays: Th times are now rip for the organisation of a political movement in the slave-holding ftUte, irrespective, of course, of all old party designation; and there are peeuliar reason why such a movement should undertaken now and her.

The great contribution display in Bir mingham, England, a year or two ago, brought to the general gaie many of the finest works in England, which had been kept from eight in the galleries of the no bility and gentry. If Art i buried in retired galleries ana private collections, its obief value and in spiration is lost.

It should come forth where it can be admired and studied. A sale of a great picture to a public gallery is worth a thousand-fold mora to the artist than when made to a private possessor, unless the latter gives it an opportunity to advertise his fame Chicago Abt Exposition. In no respect wa think, more than in regard to the con- atantlv increasing demand for books and works ol art mrougiiout we norm which already contain many valuable nublic and private libraries and galleries i IT of art, is the good old bishop's sentiment verified, that "Westward the course of empire takes its war." Durina but a handful of years. Universi ties. Medical Colleges, Historical Socie ties and Academies ol Science, nave oeen planted among us, and now we have the satisfaction of recording tb formation of an Art Gallery, consisting of the collection of gentlemen residing in Chicago.

It was rpened to the public on the 9th inst, in Burch's Iron Block, and numbers nearly 400 psintlngs, engravings, statues, busts and bronzes. The collection, which is an admirable one, and one that would not discredit any city of the Union, has, we are glad to know, been universally admired by the numerous visitor that have thronged the gallery during the last week. The exiiosition Includes a number of works whose genuieness is unquestioned, by masters whose names for centuries have rung as sweet music in the ears of all lovers of art; work by artist of the British aihool. among whom may be mentioned, Cooper and Collins, Herring and poor Uayuen, alkie ana ilson; wonts oi uie Dusseldorf School of Art; canvas from the studio of Church, Chapman and Cropsey, Duraod. Gignoux and Ueoly, Kensett, Leutze, Rossiter, and a host ol other de servedly popular American artists.

sir Benjamin West, Ionian and several clever Italian painter are well represented in our collection, which is also rich in ita-phael Morghen's engravings and artists' nroof impressions of many of Htsa Boo- hour's, Ary Suheffer's, Herring's and Landseer's pictures. Th statuary in cludes Mr. McCragg's beautiful life-size figure ot Pocahontas, by Mozier Kerloot, oik statue oi senator uougias, just completed; a statue of Master Kerfrot, by the eamearlist; an elegant figure of Truth, by Mozier the property of Mr. Sheldon together with numerous bust, brume and vase mostly purchased. Rich a the Exposition undoubtedly is it does not contain all the art treasure of Chicago.

Our city also possesses a life-size statue ot "Nydia," the bliud girl of Bulwer, by Randolph Rogers; a monumental group, consisting of a mother and child in a recumbant position, by Ives; a beau-tiful piece by Palmer of Albany the sleeping Peri;" a statue of St. John, by Belxoni, together with numerous paintings of merit. Can th people of Chicago longer be reproached with an insatiable paasion for th S3- ISM-'.
