Col. MiIIer's Lectures.

Our citizens were well entertained by two anti
slavery lectures from Col. Miller, delivered to good
audiences in the Free Church, on Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings The first lecture was chief
w occupied with historical and scriptura eviden-
ces of the natural equality of the human family,
gcther with array of proofs, tending to show that
the coored race as such, taking in the whole range
of history, are not whit behind the Ango-Saxon,
as it relates to progress in the sciences and arts.
Though it is not for moment to be conceded that
any mans right to liberty is based on mental OF
physical endowments, yet we were well pleased
to see a little even-handed Justice melted out to a
class who have long enough suffered under impu-
tations which nothing but ignorance itself could
have cast upon them.
The second lecture was a view of the origin of
slavery in America, and its progress to the present
period.
We understand that several genlle;en from the
south we're present at the first lecture-one, at
least at the last.
Col. Miller delivers another lecture at the Free
Church this eve., friday commencing promptly
at half past 7. Yields new work, entitled " SLA.
VERY AS IT u.s." will be for sale at the meeting
Let us have full house.

HENRY GIBBONS,

AFRAID OF THE LIeHr.-Three young brethren
who spent the last winter in Jamaica on account
of i'll health, were obliged to return to the Unite
States by the way of Cuba Spanish Island
where slavery still exists. They paid the Span.
ish Consul at Jamaica nine dollars for passports
He, by the same vessel, wrote to the Governor OF
Cuba, that they were suspicious i. e. they were
abotlonsts, or at least he suspected they were,
and advised the Governor to be on the watch, lest
they should find out something of the workings
of the slave system. The young gentlemen un-
suspectingly and on the strength of their pass
ports landed at Cuba. But as soon as the Gov
ernor had read the 'Consu's letter, in utter dsre-
gard of the faith pledged by the passport, they
were carried back on board the vessel and kept
under guard, during their stay at the Island The
editor of the Morning Journal at Kingston, drily
remarks that such an outrage could not have been
perpetrated any where else except in the United
States -Oberlin EVANGELIST.

in view of a recent refusal to read an anti-savery
notice, by a clergyman of this county-a clergy
man, too, who took an active part in procuring the
adoption of series Of strong anti-savery resolu-
tons In late meeting of the Washington County
Conference of Churches AS it is fit and proper
that the responsibility in this case should rest
where it belongs, and as we regard the refusal in
the ligh. of gross discouresy to the anti-savery
cause, we shall state The circumstances with all
planness
Mr.. Seely, agent of the Vermont Anti-Slavery
Society, being in town on the last Sabbath, ar
engagements were made for an ant-slavery dis
course at the Free Church, at o'clock Notices
to that effect were sent to the Brick Church, and
to the Methodist Chapel. The pastor of the Brick
church being absent from town, the notice for his
congregation was handed to one of the deacons
who caused it to be placed in the hands of the Of
fciating clergyman, Rev. Mr.. Stone, of Water
bury. The notice was duly given out at the
Methodist Chapel as usual. Mr.. Stone, at the
close of the afternoon service at the Brick church
SuCH uOllCcS as lldu DeGll Hduueu III, VIII
exception of that for Mr.. Seeley's lecture at o.
clock When inquired of as to the reason of the
omission, the deacon was gravely told that the
notice was not signed! To another brother who
made inquiry, Mr.. Stone limited that he had 9th
er reasons for keeping back the notice, which
however, he did not think proper to disclose.
This may be regarded by some as small matter
We view it far otherwise. We are panied to see
any minister of the gospel even attempting to play
the neutral on the great question ofhuman rights
But when protested friend of the cause, like Mr.
Stone, finds himself in the frigid atmosphere o
colonization, how greatly does he dishonor the
precious cause Of the slave by such recreancy a:
we have felt ourselves bound to rebuke! The
times are out Of joint.

The CHAIRMAN said he had always great pleas
ure in listening to Mr.. Thompson, who was the
most eloquent man and the most accomplished or
ator whom he knew, and as he had no opportuni-
ty of hearing him where he ought TO speak, in
side the walls of arament-Uoud cheers)-he
was anxious never to lose an opportunity of hear
ing him where alone he could, in public meetings
like the present.

| Dear Sir,-If ever there was time which de-
manded the united untiring efforts of the friends
of human 'liberty-if ever there was time that
every man should be up and doing, that time is
the present. In proportion as our cause advan-
ces and our numbers increase, should our ener-
gies be put FORTH
Every man, woman and child, can be, if not
public lecturer, distributor of books, pamphlets,
and papers, which will do the work of abolitioni-
zing the whole country in the most sure and least
expensive way.
Among all the publications issued from the an
t-slavery press, nothing is half equal to Slavery
as 1t u.s. have purchased between one and two
hundred, and sold most of them. 1t is book of
incompatible interest-disclosing more systematic
oppression and cruelty more bigh-handed villany,
robbery and wrong, more inefable meanness, than
was ever justly chargeable to any other nation in
any age or country. And will the people consent
to remain in ignorance upon this awful subject,
till wrath come upon them to the uttermoSt?-
Shall the tale of the immeasurable wrongs of

on, longer go UNDECIDED? Shall the poor slave,
far worse off than the man who fell among thieves,
cry for deliverance from the bottomless gulph Of
degradation and woe to which he is reduced by
cruel laws and sacrilegious hand, and cry in vain

upon the consciences of the shareholders, if DR..
Anderson, knowing the money presented for mis-
sions was thus obtained, should return it, with the
Christian admonition that the treasury of that
God who has said, he that stealeth man and
selleth him, or if he be found in his hand shall
be surely put to death" cannot be polluted by any
such gifts Permit me to ask you, further, if the
whole of my remarks upon this subject were any
thing further than an illustration of the adherence
with which, in my opinion, the church of Christ
ought to hold the sin of slavery? If you did so
understand me, why then, let me ask, did you,
Jesuit-like, come out and so pervert my meaning?
Did your zeal for the domestic institution of Amer
lean slavery hurry you into this indiscretion, OF
the love you bear your slaveholding relatives at
the South excite you to it? Alas, how have the
mighty fallen in the midst of the battle, for the
support of an institution that is disgrace TO the
civilized world
cannot leave the work to come down into the
valley to hold lengthy conversation with San
ballat. If could, | would simply inquire of the
Domestic Missionary agent of this State, my
friend Ingraham, how he can find so much leisure
to uxuriate in our more populous towns, write es-
says to support domestic slavery, and leave so
many of our fellow-men in remote and smaller
towns, destitute of preached gospel? Twill not,
however call upon the Board to dismiss my Rev.
friend, whatever faults may think see in his
course; but rejoice that the day has passed, and
too far gone by for clerical influence to re-light
the fires of Smithfeld, justify the oppression of
men for the glory of God.

To THE Rev. IRA INGRAHAM:
Sir-A great deal of useless argument nigh
have been saved in relation to my Middebury
lecture, if you had clearly understood and correct
y reported me, as it was your duty to have done
in as much as gave an invitation to any one tc
make remarks upon any thing might have adj
vanced that was wrong, or that was thought in
correct. This invitation you did not see fit to &C.
cept but came forth with your notes in due time
concocted after your own fashion, and moulded to
suit your pro-savery feelings. I used the most
precise language to convey my meaning How
then could you so misunderstood me?
Your principal charge amounts to this: That
Col. Miller is the enemy of the American Board
of Foreign Missions, and as such, has attacked it
in public lecture, and held itup to rdcule through
the person of DR.. Anderson" | was, at the time
member of the Foreign Missionary Society, and
clearly and distinctly stated that was a friend to
the cause of Foreign Missions-that had visited
several Foreign Missionary stations, and that |
believed they were doing great good. These re-
marks you did not see fit to report. They would
not answer your pro-slavery purposes. did
state in that lecture and now clearly and distinct
ly state, both to you and to the world, that in my
opinion, the selling of indulgences to commit sin
in the Roman Church. for the purpose OF building
ST. Peters, at Rome, 312 years since, was not so
great crime in the sight of holy God, as that
of knowingly taking the price of human being,
or the proceeds of his unrequited labor to spread
the gospel of Christ among the heathen Was
not this my language upon that occasion? Did |
not, in the clearest manner possible, endeavor to

Anti-SIavery Notices--Ke eping Dark

Instances have been rare, in this state at least
in which those clergymen who are known oppo-
nents of the anti-slavery movement have gone to
the extent of refusing to read from their desks no.
tees of anti-slavery meetings The reading Of
notices for all the professedly benevolent enter
prises Of the day has become so much matter Of
course, that clergyman is by no means consid-
cred as lavoring the object of a proposed meeting
merely because he reads a notice. A refusal to
read notice, under such circumstances, is there
fore, tantamount to an open avowal of opposition
to the object of the meeting especially if such re-
iusal be made without any satisfactory expana-
ton.
We are constrained to aude to this subject now
