upon to render thanks to A mighty God for that "a
vor and for all those signal blessings He has be-
slowed upon us, not only rs Society, but indi-
viduals. He, in whose hand our breath is, has pre-
served US through year Of even;ful character
Death has not broken the gbictat ranks Of this So
ciety-although some of those who have been
bcred among the friends of the of Freedom
in this Society, have been called within tho past
year, to the land of silence. Some also In other
Counties in this State, and some in other States,
have gone The way OF all the earth. Among them
may be mentioned the benevolent and gifted Jo
sEPH Il. kIMBALL, former editor of the Herald of

to be very definite. l may safely say, however, in
general, the cause Of Abolition has csrtainly, If
slowly advanced The number of those who dare
assert the rights of the oppressed and down rodden
slave, has increased. A few societies have
sprung into existence, and those which existed be-
fore the commencement of the year now under re-
view have enrolled goodly number of names
probably, however not as many as they might have
done, had the pioneers of the cause within their
bounds, exered themselves to the full extent OF
their ability. l have received reports from but
few of the local Societies within the County-yiz
Hardwick, Lyndon Burke, Cabot and ST. Johns
bury. The progress OF the oanse in these may be
considered specimen of It's progress thro' the Co.
The Secretary Of the Hardwick Society reports
100 membership added within the year. He adds,
We mi ht probably at this time, if an effort were
made, obtain many additions, perhaps so as TO
double, and perhaps even qaadruple our number
Whether or not the effort spoken of above has been
made, arm not able to say IF it has not, it is to
hoped that it may yet be made without delay. The

find their ungraeful repiningsS shamedS by
the equaninty and cheerful spirit OF this ply
sicaNy imperfect creature, in the midst OF prva-
ton and poverty. She has no arms, and Meth
err legs nor thighs. Her shoulders are rounded
off and capable of motion and OH them she
receives the gifts which charity or kindness prof
fers her.
She is also able to move about on level,
with kind of waddling motion. Her usual
position is that of sitting, rather Standing up
rgat in common chair, by rocking which
from side to side, she moves about with great
facility. She is able to read, and for this pur
pose places the hook upon her shoulder,
(Which she prefers) on table before her, and
turns over the leaves with her tongue. Her
health has always been excellent, and her moth
says she has never had occasion for the SER
vices of physician and although she seldom
leaves the house, and therefore taxes but little
exercise, she is now in the finest and most robust
health, aud is so fat that her body (Which is
largely proportioned,) is as broad as it is long.
Her head is very large, and her features are also
large and somewhat coarse, yet decidedly good,
and forming very agreeabl lie tout ensemhe-and
her lip is absolutely pretty, and of the richest
and ripest red.
In addition to being sociable and clatty, and
even witty. it is said she possesses the accom-
plishment Of singing a very sweet song. She
received the party who visited her in company
with myself very affahy, and very graciously
accepted our farewell offering. Some years q.
go, n Yankee having met with her, offered to
purchase her of her mother for the sum of
$30OO as speculation. This tempting offer
was very creditably refused by the parent-neh
er her poverty nor her will consented to the
traffic.

tant consideration to the emigrant. The mar
kets as uncertain in the West Bnnd South
West, as in the East ,-and the prices ofaImost
every thing raised here and throughout the
northern States are two fold what they are in
the West. Suppose an acre of land yields 70
bushels of corn in the West upon an average
and that with the same care an acre OF land a. in
the East will yield but thirty five bushels. The
price IN the East is two fold what it is in the
West and the thirty five bushels will yield the
Farmer in the East as great profit as the sew
enty bushels would the Farmer in the West
Again,-not only labor upon farm is much
higher in the West than in the East, but the
price Of labor Of every kind is almost two fold
there. Imported goods Of every description are
of course far more expensive, while all the lux
uries Of life and many of the necessaries are in
creased in proportion to the Inconvenience of
bringing them to the place of consumption
This also is another and very important con:
sderarion to the emigrant. Where then are the
advantages of emigration and if there is an adj
vantage it IS equal TO men of all professions and il
not equal TO all, to whom and under what cir
cumstance e? We shall answer this question in
our next.-Portiand advertiser.
