From The Political Examiner.

1Colori-e,ion Sacisty--Almost every day in
its revolution brings 70 the friends of the Co
lonizatian Society in this county something
to animate them in their course or to reprove
them for delay Though we exuit at the no
bic and generous friends which on every side
rise up to AID the parent society, we cannot
but regret that SO little has been done by
ourselves; we especially regret it at this time,
when the society are laboring under tempo
rary embarrassment. The following facts
will show the friends Of the society in this
place what has TRANSFERRED elsewhere.
A resolution Of the Legislature OF Pennsyl-
vania has been presented to Congress, ex-
pressive of an opinion decidedly favorable to
The objects OF the American Colonization So
ciety, and recommending appropriations of
public money towards the encouragement
thereof

the Abolition Of Slavery" held recently in

about 400, for the purpose of hberatns
