ON SLAVERY.

Whereas the Baptist church in Whining
ton have had the subject Of American Slave
ny under consideration, for more than two
years, and are now convinced that il is a
sin Of the first magnitude, which ought 10
be repented Of and abandoned Immediately,
by individuals and by the nation that it is
a sin, against which all Christ's ministers
ought to preach, and all Christians to testify
and pray; sin, so plainly, pointedlv, and
freqently rebuked and denounced, both in
the law and by the Gospel Of Christ, and
now so long and SO faithfully held up before
the people by those who dare to speak out,
therefore -,
|. ReSoEted, That we can haze nochurch
fellowship with any who practice OF advo-
cate the same, until they repent.
2. Resolred, That we do hereby affec-
tionately invite all our sister churches to
adopt the above, OF a similar resolution, and
thus clear ourselves Of a participation 10 this
dreadful abomination.
3. Resolved, That this be signed by the
officers of the church and sent to the press
for publication.

I After some statements, and some mis-

went and utterance to the following senti-
meDts: 49,
"We can never give our sanction to
the lawless proceedings Of an Infatuated
mob. Outrages Of this description can
never be justified by any circumstances,
and should. be resolutely opposed and de-
uounced by all the friends of law and
social order. But when we see man

khe fruits Of his doiRgs. lie who wiIfuI-
ly excites the tempest, ought IN Justice to
be the first to feel its violence. We trust
that all fanatical disturbers Of the public
peace. will take warning, and learn a les
son of practical wisdom, from the case of
the unfortunate individual whose death is
recorded below.
We observe that several papers which
have come to hand since the above was
written, while they vehemently and PER-
HAPs justly dEnounce the proceedings of
the Populace of Alton, represent Mr..
Lovejoy-he real MOVER and AUTHOR
of all the misehief-as an innocent and
unoffending martyr to the cause Of liberty.
1t is our own conviction, that no good can
ever come from unjust or one-sided state
ments or decisions of any kind. We
agree with others, that public sentiment
cannot be too loudly nor too decisiveIy
uttered against all popular outrages upon
the laws Of the land but we feel fully
assured, that the voice of public opinion
should be as sturdiy and as indignantly
pronounced against all those political OF
religious demagogues, who wilfuIly scat.

who can be regarded as no other than the
original and the most guilty cause Of al
