bate took place in tie House of Delegates of
Virginia. on the 18th ult., on the presentation
of two memorials; which is thus noticed in the
Richmond Wing
On Wednesday, in the House of Delegates,

numerously signed, praying legislative facilities
for the removal and colonization of freq negroes
and such slaves as may be voluntarily manu-.
mitted, and the appropriation of means for the
purchase of a certain number Of young slaves
annually, with view of commencing the great
work Of abolition. Mr.. Roane also presented
the Memorial Of the Society of Friends at their
Yearly Meeting, signed by Fleming Bates on
their behalf, most eoquently depicting the evils
of slavery, and imploring the Legislature ia
turn its attention towards some system which
may gradually relieve the country from the
greatest of national calamities.. The Memorial
of the Friends displayed admirable tact and dis
erection.
Mr. Goode moved to rtject these petitions,

We understand that the Rev. JONATHAN
GONG, who for sixteen years has officiated
as Pastor of the Baptist Church, in Worces.
ter, has requested and obtained dismissor
from his charge in that place, for the pur.
pose of devoting himself to the interests Of
domestic Missions in the Baptist denomina.
ton, with special reference to the Valley Of
the Mississippi. While we regret the loss
OF Mr.. Going's salutary influence and able
labors in our vicinity, we trust he has been
led to the course he has adopted from con-
viction of duty, and that blessing will at
tend him in his contemplated Missionary
course.
We also learn, that in consequence of Mr..
Going's dismission, the Baptist Church and
Society in Worcester have invited Mr.. F.
AUGUSTUS WILLARD, late of the Theolog-
ical Institution at Newton, to become their
Pastor, who has accepted the invitation.
We are informed that Wednesday, 18th

ton. 1t is expected that Professor RIPLEY

Mr. EDITOR: Knowing that there are many
unfounded reports respecting the disorder in
this town, which is called the Small Pox, WEI
deem 1t our duty to make report of the actual
state of the disease for tie information of the
public. SIN the Yeoman Of last week, we stated
our conviction that one of the eight persons
then sick, would die. That patient died on
Sunday. of the others, then reported as sick,
every one is nearly well, and we shall, probably,
dismiss three Of them from the hospital in the
course of the week, and we feel much pleasure
since last Thursday.
For the purpose Of thoroughly fumigating the
house in which the person above mentioned d.
ed, we have been compelled to remove the re-
mainder Of the inmates -four in number) to an
other house IN remote quarter Of the town,
and also as matter of preservation. They are
perfectly WELL having all been protected by The
vaccine incubation, and we shall dismiss them
to their friends on Saturday next.
Our Fellow Citizens may roly upon our TAX.
ing all the precautions in our power TO arrest
this disorder, and they may equally rely upon
our making correct report Of the state Of it in
all our papers. We shall feel it our duty not to
disguise or conceal any thing attending it. But
we do call upon our fellow citizens to aid us by
avoiding any communication with persons hav
ing the disorder, and also by protecting them.

by order Of the Selectmen of Worcester.
FRED. w. PAINE, Chairman.
FThe report here referred to states that all the
cases which have occurred "have been Of mild
description except three, and we are warranted IN
saying that improper treatment before medical adj
vice was taken, very much aggravated these three
cases." And adds that there are eight cases in
town at the tarthest, all Of whom are conyalescent
with one exception, which was of the person above
mcntiopcd, who is since dead.
