I have in my hands an interesting paper, called
the "Sentinel and Herald" published at Colum
bus, Georgia, May &c. 1889. Its motto is printed
in capitals 1--WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS
TO BE SELF EVIDENT, THAT ALL MEN
ARE BORN EQUAL" On its first page is a
very affecting story, entitled the Faithful Slave. .
| have copied it under the head Of the benevolent
and Intrepid Eustace"
That story shows, that at least one colored per-
son claims a rank among "all men," Let those
who despise Gods colored children prove their
claim to a rank above him if they can.
The editor of this paper says he cutters the
name of Washington with veneration."* He
talks about the money aristocracy" and mani
tests deep anxiety to prevent "injury to the work.
ing man."
Now turn and read the story Of the faithful
slave, and there see how colored man treated a
white man. who was in his power. Then look
at the motto again. and then read the following
advertisements from the same paper, which show
how the coored people are treated when in the
power of the whites
SHERIFF'S SALES.

The readers of the Voice of Freedom doubtless
suppose that they have in that paper the aohoJe of
the correspondence between the Rev. Mr.. Bliss
and President Lord whereas the editor has omit
ted more than one third of i've. Chronicle.
The omitted part consists of long letter pub
lished by Mr.. Bliss by way of rejonder. Having
given one letter on each side, there is no just
ground of complaint. Besides the second letter
is little else than repetition of the first, interar
ded with few dashes of pro-slavery Indignation.

To the editor Of the Rutland Herald:
In looking over your paper of the 18th inst.
noticed the dongs of the Vt. Ant-Slavery Socie-
ty, at their meeting in Rutland, June 25th, 1889.
and am free to confess, that my sensibilitieS were
greatly excited, in reading the expressions of that
society. Such set of abusive and childish reso-
lutions, was perhaps never adopted by the most
degraded demagogues in the United States. Had
such reckless expressions escaped the lips OF those
splenetic missionaries who are engaged IN the abb
clifton crusade, and fattening on the creduhty OF
the uniformed, and who hire pensloned Tor their
mirepresentations or even from the hlrellngs OF
the press who smile at the simplicity and credu-
lily of their readers, pocket the dirty pence and,
like the Hollander on the coast of Japan, who to
outstrip others in trade, trample on the cross of
the Saviour, they would have merited scarcely
a passing notice. But when contemplating the
source from whence these resolutions emanated
the high stations enjoyed; the holy vocatious pur-
sued BY large number of that convention, (whose
protested object is persuasive, we must at once
admit the doctrine of total moral depravity' That

essors of Our holy religion, should with their scor-
pion tongues, breathe forth malice and wrath a.

The Enemy Reused!

The latent opposition to the cause Of emanci-
patton is beginning to manifest itself with holder
front. The Abotionists of Vermont may be as
sured that the 'tmg" of our holy war is yet to
come. A few leading colonizationists, startled at
the progress of anti-slavery sentiment, seem de-
termined to make desperate effort to cripple and
cry down every man who cries aloud for the
dumb, and spares not the time-serving. The on
setwas begun a: Montpelier very soon after Mr..
Seey entered the field as an anti-slavery agent
In the opinion of some who had been among his
warmest friends and admirers, his enlistment in
this cause would injure his influence, curtail his
usefulness, and all that. Such prognosticators
have since been busy in circulating calumnious
reports. 1t seems kindred spirit has developed
itself on the West of the Mountains. The fol-
lowing, whichwc copy from the last Telegraph is
quite as we'll calculated for the meridian of Mont
pelier as that of Brandon. Those who have I'M
dertaken' to cry down JoAB SEELY by wholesale

A Challenge to certain SIanderers.

Rash and severe as have by some been sup
posed to be, my readers will bear me testimony
thatI have not often used the word "chaenge.' %
1t is not word for ordinary use. And yet it is
very proper word for its proper place on proper
occasions. Such an occasion | think there now
is. am, therefore, about to throw out a cha1-
Iemge!
Joan SEELY, known extensively in Vermont,
heretofore, as an agent for the Bible Society, has
recently been prevailed upon by the Executive
Committee of the Vermont Anti-Slavery Society,
to become their General Agent, with Instructions
to lecture and collect funds In performing his
official duties, brother Seely came to Brandon, two
weeks and half ago, and commenced operations

rated with abolition sentiments to serve the cause
of colonization
To provide against any failure of this sort in
future, the society, at the last meeting appointed
teoo secretaries viz. Rev. Austin Hazen, of Ber-
lin, and Rev. Daniel Wild, of BrookGeld Both
gentlemen, we have been told, were absent at the
time Of their appointment, and have since express
ed wish to be excused from the service. Mr..
Wild has ust made his determination public in
the following note to the Vermont Chronicle:
Mr.. TRAcY,-It is we'll known to the readers
of the Chronicle that my name was made use of
last fall as Secretary of the Vt. Col. Society; and
as was ignorant of this till the Chronicle inform
ed me of it, | wish through the same medium, to,
decline that service; at the same time, expressing
my gratitude to the Society for this expression Of
their confidence.
One reason for my declining, is the pressure Of
other duties
wish further to state that have intimated to
some an intention to throw into the columns of
some paper my views of colonization and slavery.
But as these are very eXcitable subjects, as nv
language may be misconstrued, and be obliged
to repl and reply again, and have the mor6ca-
ton of being misunderstood at last refrain, at
present. from doing this. Meanwhile | would
assure all, who may wish for my views on these
topics, that they may have them freely, without
duplicity and with good feeling, when called for,
on all suitable occasions.
DANIEL WILD.
Brookfeld, July 10, 1899.
We commend Mr.. Wild for his good sense in,
resigning the secretaryshp. We regret that he.
does not see it his duty to state more explicitly
" the reasons which impeled" him "to the sepa-,
ration" If he is satisfied that the American Col
onization Society is an ally of slavery, pledged
against the cause of emancipation, immediate or
remote, the avowaI of his opinions might be use
full. We have no doubt there are scores of min
listers in New England who are suffering painful
decorations of conscience on this same subject
How honorable would it be to their piety to break
OF from the strange alliance, openly confessng
their like the high-souled B1RNEy or the be-
