Loss of the Schooner New-York.

We have mentioned the loss of the schooner
New-York on Lake Ontario, during severe
gale on the 18th ult.-The following particulars
of the melancholy event we copy from the King
sion Chronicle. They are contained in a letter
from John Rose, Esq.,-N. Y. Spec
To-day has been exhibited in this place an aw-
lui scene; during the severe storm of yesterday
a vessel was discovered some s or 10 miles from
shore, apparently in an ungovernable situation.
At about II o'clock she neared the land so as to
be distinctly seen, when it was discovered she
was lying on her beam ends, driven forward bv n
mighty sea toward the shore. On crossing the
bar at the entrance Of the bay she struck and
went to pieces. Two men were discovered cling
ing to piece of the deck-one was soon washed
of, the other continued to hold on till he came so
near as to be heard calling for assistance, and
reckoning with his hand for the people on shore
to come off. Attempts were made to launch a
small boat into the boiling surf, but all efforts
wore unavailing the sea run so high that it was
uttery impossible. He was cheered and encour-
aged from the shore for some time. At length
weary and exhausted he washed from the piece
to which he held, and sank to rise no more
,Eo day theinhabitan!s have been busily enga-
gedl in saving what the fury of the waves has
spared consisting Of nasts, blocks, and rigging
&c. The vessel was laden with slaves, large
quantityof which came on shore, and have been sa-

found dashed TO the main shrouds; one had lash

Freedom of the Pulpit,

Oct. 1889.

We are so we'll pleased with the manly spirit Of
Rev. Mr.. Pierpont's Letter tnat we offer it, en-
tire, to our readers. Mr. P has officiated as the
pastor of Hollis street church in Boston, about
twenty years. During the last two or three years,
it would seem, he has occasionally preached with
greet freedom, on the Christian duty of temper
ance. This has been the ostensible occasion of
repeated attempts on the part of minority Of the
pew holders, to Dust him from the pulpit but an
other ground of opposition is, that he has opened
his mouth for the dumb by preaching two dis
courses having reference to slavery. The subject
matter of this letter is by no means of merely To-
cal interest. Its arguments are unanswerable.
AS literary production it has uncommon merit
We commend it to the notice of those ministers
and laymen who are at their wits end in their at
temps to stihe discussion on questions most vi
tally affecting the purity and peace of the Ameri-
can church.

u Several communications are received, and

For the Voice of Freedom.


Mr.. EDlroR:--The apostolic Elliot used to say
when he met with his ministerial brethren, The
Lord Jesus is very attentive 10 the conduct of his
ministers, when they are assembled together;
Come let as pray.' Now we will suppose, that
the Lord Jesus was present in the late convention
of ministers; when Rev. Mr.. Hodges called up the
memorial of the Black Rivem Association on the
subject of slavery, that he witnessed all the move
ments of his ministers; and heard ALL that fell
from their lips; that his eyes fame of fire
penetrated every heart, and that he understood the
secret springs Of every action, uhat must hare
been his feelings? Could he behold the entire pro-
cess until the erpungmg rote was passed without
weeping over the Convention as he did once over
Jerusalem? And had he have sent letter to these
he was present, and all the churches shall know,
that he scarcheth the reigns and hearts, and that
he will give unto every one of them according to
their works
Mr.. Hodges wished to have committee appoin-
ted to prepare circular letter, to be addressed by
The Convention TO christians in the saveholding
states. And he placed the question, where it
should be placed, not on the ground of policy, but
of solemn duty. Could body of ministers, ac-
ting in the presence of Jesus Chris, reject such
proposal? Alas they did The reasons, which
they offered for so doing are before the world, and
will one day have to pass again in review before
Him, whose eyes are as a fame Of fire. And
hope they have already been reviewed by those,
who offend them in their closets and at the bar of
conscience. For self-examination is very good
exercise for ministers, as we'll as for their hearers.
And those, who preach TO Others should not forget
to preach to themselves.
In the nineteenth century, in the State OF YER
mont and after some discussion, the proposition
was rejected by a majority Of the convention
am grieved, that such fact is now matter of
record, which cannot be expunged. And do
hope, that the Black River Association will renew
their memorial, that other associations will send
forward their memorials and that the next Con-
vention will do what the last should have done !;
send letter to their brethren at the south on the
subject of slavery. l am now ready to offer the
reasons why think this course should be taken
l. Such course would have a tendency to
promote union among the churches in this state
Glove is the bond of perfectness" And had
those brethren, who opposed, advocated the meas
ure, the best feelings Of their hearts would have

HE POSITION OF THE PRo-sLAvERY CLERGY Is
such in regard to the anti-slavery enterprise that
they cannot defend it a moment, and therefore will
not, if they can avoid it, allow it to be discussed.
They know they are in the wrong-grossly-
terribly -and Gti getting to beg mnpardonably.
And they cannot now get off their position, with
out compromising their dignity and their pride.
This is the whole of it. It's apably So Self
evidently. Otherwise they would some of them
discuss it and defend it. If any of them thought
they were right, they would some of them vnd-
cate it. So soon as any one becomes willing to
examine tor rather to examine himself in re-
gard to it, he comes off and joins the an-sIavery
ranks, where we have, | fear, nearly all that is
conscience and moral courage in the community.
The question has been too long before the cou6-
try, for any man Of common intelligence to excuse
himself on the score of inattention or ignorance,

ANOTHER BEREAvEMENr.-"W We are sorry to
to learn, (says the Boston Daily Advertiser, of
yestarday0 that the Hon, James c. Alvord of
Greenfield, member of Congress elect for Frank
lin District, died on Friday night last, after Sc
we're illness of several weeks. Mr.. Alvord was a
young gentlman Of fine talents and excellent char
acter He has been a member of both branches
of the Legislature, of which he was useful and
efficient member, and as member of the bar, he
babe fair to reach the highest honors Of his pro-
lession. His premature death is a severe loss to
the State, and it produces vacancy in our Con-
gressiona delegation which is much to be regret
ted"
Mr.. Alvord, though a young lawyer of eminent
promise, with the ordinary avenues to distinction
wide open before him, took an early and decided
stand in favor Of liberty. His reports on the sub
ect of slavery, Texas, and the District of Column
bia will remain as proofs at once of the sincerity
of his devotion to justice, and of the statesman
like qualities Of his mind. Had he lived to bear
his part in the great conflict, and to share in the
glorious victory, which awaits the advocates of
equal rights in Congress, we have no doubt his
name would have occupied worthy niche among
the worthy. But so a just and wise Providence
has not ordained. Let us all bow TO his good will,
who doeth all things well. Our simpathies are
rendered to the father bereh of his first born, and

OBJECTIONS ANswERED.-We are often told
that England forced slavery upon America"
This is not strictly true. She permitted her peo-
pie to course along coasts with her slave ships,
crying out whoU Juy and our guilty forefathers
responded We! and eagerly sought their carsoes
of slaves But if their guilt were palia,ion of
our crime, ought we not to initiate their recent
deeds of repentance
But L" God permitted his chosen people to hold
slaves, as we read in the Bible" So he did, but
he likewise made the following command: Yc
shall ha1lo1o the .ftlieth gear, and proclaim Li6er-
ty Mrought all The land unto all the Inhabitants
thereof" It's now fifty years since our govern
ment was instituted will our Bible-quoting slave
ties obey the positive command ?-NontroSe Spec

that on Tuesday, the 18th of Sept. at o'clock, P.
NJ, gentleman called at the Anti-Slavery Office
to purchase SIS worth of American Slavery as it
is, for a worthy old gentleman in Schoharrie Co.,
who wanted them for distribution, when, 10 there
was not a copy on hand, and the bearer was told to
call next morning, by which time supply would
come from the bindery. The: Publishing Agent,
y way ofapology for the emptiness of his shelves,
told story about his having Sold since the 7h
of May, at wholesale, 1899 @pes, of which
more than $500 had been ordered within the last
fortnight. Besides these, the retail sales at the
desk and the gratuitous distributions have been

ton, in four months and ten days, upwards of
TWENTY TWO THOUSAND.

and in this situation were driven ashore with the
wreck; one man is apparently about 30 years OF
age, sandy hair large whiskers, about four feet
eight or nine inches in height, had on coarse
roundabout cloth vest & coarse canvass trousers.
In his pocket was found a small pocket-book
containing FL. 3s. 4d. in silver, but no papers
whereby to designate his name and place of resi-
dence the other was about twenty-one or two !;
dark brown hair, fair complexion, had on pair
of fustian trowsers and over them pair Of coarse
canvass ones, striped cotton shirt, but no coat or
vest 1t is expected that there are still more per-
sons under the wreck, which is now lying bottom
upwards, in about seven feet of water; neither
of the two men seen from shore has yet been
found. From the size of the vessel it would be
supposed to require crew of eight or nine per-
sons; al! on board, however, be they many or few,
have persisted.
