APPEARANCE OF THE WHEAT CRop.-We rejoice
to be able to state, upon the authority of several
intelligent farmers resident in various parts Of the
corn districts, in the neighborhood Of this town
that, so far can be at present judged of the ap
pearance of the wheat crops, the prospects are
highly suspicious. On the whole, the season has

The fact is no less honorable to New England

the anti-slavery enterprise.-Ch. Witness.

We have long been Of the opinion, that the time
would come, when the secret doings of Slavery
would be exposed to view-that this huge abom-

some OF the most instructive and exciting subjects.
In England, the work of exposure has now begun.

Spirit Of Ohio Abolitionists.-Our Western
friends are rousing themselves, The passage of
the infamous Black Law" in relation 10 fugitive
slaves, has awakened determined and heroic
spirit among the friends of the colored man. The
last Philanthropist contains the proceedings Of sew
eral anti-slavery societies, the members of which
have solemnly resolved to regard as NULL AND VOID
the law forbidding them to aid the fugitive escap-
ing from slavery, and to bare their bosoms to the
penalty of refusing to obey its unrghteous in
junctions.-Penn. Freeman.

REV. E. P. LovEJoY-At the first annual meet
ing of the Illinois Anti-Savery Society, the fol-
lowing resolutions in relation to this rueheared
martyr of freedom, were unanimously adopted
and are published along with the other proceedings
of the Society, in a late number of the Genius Of
Universal Emancipation. We think the sugges-
ton of the last one should be speedily carried into
effect. 1t would be a solemn qualification 10 the
friends of freedom to contribute of their means in
the prosecution of such an enterprise
Christian Witness.
Resoloed, That we deeply deplore the loss which
the friends of immediate emancipation have sus-
tanned in the death of the Rev. Z. p. Loveioy,
the first Secretary of the Illinois State Anti-Sla-
very Society," the intrepid defender of the great
principles of universal freedom, and the first mar
tyr to freedom of the press, in the fierce contest
with American Slavery.
Resolved, That while we lament his death, we
admire the ability with which he defended the
grand doctrines set forth in our declaration of indie
pendence the 6rmness with which he met the
storm raised by the enemies of the freedom of the
press and the unwavering devotion with
which he fell and bled on the altar of our
common liberties and that we regard with
feelings of unminged indignation and horror, that
corrupt public sentiment which suffered the perpe-
ration of an act that robbed the church of so devo-
ted minister and the nation of one of her noblest
sons.
Resolved, That it is due to the memory of E.
P. Lovejoy, that suitable monument be erected
over his grave, by the friends ofthe cause TO which
he fell a martyr.

the publication of work by retired overseer,
entitled Jamaica Partnership; by Benja. Nina
hon, Is years employed in the planting line in that
island" He is represented an unlettered Irish
man, but his work bears every mark of veracity
The details he has given are horrid beyond the
conception of any one who has not been initiated
into the mysteries of Slavery, and so graphically
described, as TO carry conviction that they have
been seen, The work gives Names places, and
dates so as to allow of easy relutation, if false.
And the author gives this further evidence of truth,
that he is seeking to return to the island, showing
that he does not fear to meet his own stories in the
very presence of the parties concerned. We have
no doubt these revelations are still necessary, even
with regard to the British Colonies, and they are
still more important to this country. There must
be hundreds of men now in the free states, who
have been employed as clerks, mechanics, over
seers, &c, in the midst of slavery, who would
electrify this nation and destroy the monster by
simply telling what they know.-Mass. AdoH.
