the laws, aud trampled the constitution under
R,ot. He imprisoned Judge for performing
his d1ty-thus making Military superiOur TO
the Civil power.
eth. He caused sixteen Indians, found the
day after battle, and who were almost the
last of their people. to be inhumanly shot.
sth. He has reversed the decision of court
martial of his own calling.
9Th. He raised an army during the last war
not only without the authority of the Presi-
dent, but contrary 10 his orders.
18th. He has ever shown himself hasty, cru
ell and revengefu.
Sth. He is declared by his friends TO be ga
Southern man, with southern feelings and
southern interests" and consequently is dis
posed to aid the slave holder, rather than the
free white population ofthe northern states.
9th. He is slave hOlder.and has been pro-
we'd to have been engaged in buying and sell
ling human beings like cattle.
10th. His friends have attempted tn impose
upon the farmers of the north, by sitting him
the Farmer "fFenncssee," when they know
he is the UW ner Of large number OF slaves,
BY whom alone his :trms are TILED.
These are the reasons that have influenced
me in my determination to attend the cleo
ton. Considering it as l do, the most effect
ual manner in which can bear ny testimony
against slavery, and the man who has on nu-
lnerOus occasions acted ia a manner highly
disgraceful to the age in which we live. 10
my brethren in society, | would with the
greatest respect suggest the proprlety OF con-
sdering the subject deeply; such a considera-
ton have no doubt will determine them as It
has me. Yes, my friends, let US one and all
attend the election-quietly give our Vote;-
an effectual testimony against practices that
are unworthy of human nature, and re-
proach to human society. A FRIEND.

indins himself rapidly declining, in the prospect
OF speedy approaching dissolution. sent For an un
dertaker or joiner, to make his coffin. On seeing
him and informing him Of his intent, he eagerly en-
CURED OF the particular manner, in which collins
were here made; and among other things whether
here IN the West-Indies they were lined with
woollen Pile was told, il was not the custom of
our people to line them at all. On hearing which.
he broke out into a furious passion and exclaimed
delriously, Not line them!-.Ny Coz! Not line
them-and this cold WeathYr too--and in this eoid
ctimate"- again repeating with energy his excla.
nation" Why 1t is certainly enough Co freeze a
