declaration appears to have been very
Necessary. if he wished the thing stated
to be believed. For my own part, ]
Eever should have thought Of such
thing if he had not positively asserted
ii. And now, as it is brought into 10
tice, we all have a right to form our
own opinions, whether the manner in
which he has treated the subject was
required by a correct conscience or any
Responsibility under which he acted.
The next speech is attributed to
Harlan. On looking over the two as
cribed to kreider and Harlan, it would
seem that one common genius Produc-
ed them both: but expcnding its pow
els. on the first, and from some myster-
ious partiality giving It to kreider,
Harlan could do nothing more than
follow in his track, and say the same
things over again. am not aware of
one single original idea contained in
the last speech. He does to be sure
go considerably beyond his predeces-
sor in vulgar abuse, but even the
ground work ofthis was put into krei-
der's speech. The only originality in
it seems to be in calling approbious
names. lie calls the friends whose

us with design Of committing "the
black fraud'' to obtain our purpose-''a

disgrace" Ito the Hicksites) thatssuch a

Such a speech is beneath distinct
Tepiy-but to leave him in as comforta.
BE state Of mind as possible, can
assure him that be need not give him
self any uneasiness about the Charac-
ter fbis Hicksites friends. We never
emanated from them. having never
been Of their Society. Whatever
their character is they have It all them
selves. Men Of common sense and
common honesty will never suppose
that the undivided yearly meetings of
London, Dublin, New England, vr-
Rinia and North Carolina, and the year
y meetings of New York, Philadel-
dia, Baltimore, Ohio and Indiana are
= mere party that have left the
Hicksite Society, which is now but
little over five years old, and consists
Of disOwned persons from the yearly
meetings Of New York, Philadelphia,

To those who have reflected but lit
Gle on the nature Of interpretations, it
may not be improper to remark, that
an act Of incorporation affords to the
property ofan association or society.
the same kind ofprotection and securi
fy which the laws in common afford to
the property Of individuals. And no
man who is satisfied with living i'm CT
silized society and enjoying the pro- |
lection which the laws extend over his
person and his property, both real and
personal, can consistently object to
having the property Of company
equally protected. But as unincorpor.
ated companies or associations are not
known or recognised in law, the pro-
perry which they hold as such, is not
under the same protection as the Pro-
perry Of individuals.
Dur Society has always declared
that civil government, was, of divine
appointment, and designed to promote
the security, happiness and best inter
ests ofthe human family.-Jfthis opin-
ion is correct, i, must follow that the
benefit alluded to, may properly be-
and indeed ought to be-extcnded to
all the affairs Of human life.
The objection raised BY some perl
sons, either ignorantly or desienedly, Of
aconnection Of military force with such
interpretations is entirely sophistical
and unfounded. The man who takes
a deed for a farm he has purchased, is
as obnoxious to this objection as the
company or society which applies to a
legislative body for an act Of incorpor-
alton. And he who quietly sits by
his own fireside under the protection
Of the Law. violates the testimony which
We maintain against war, as much rs
the company or society, which dis
charges the duties OF a trust, under the
safeguard and security afforded by an
act Of incorporation.
