The foregoing is an appendage 10 bust
ness letter, from brother whom l very
much esteem and love. l place it in the
Telegraph for the sole purpose of making it
the occasion for an explanation which, may
be, ought to have been made before The
explanation is this:
Whenever there is found Rev. in the
Telegraph, it will be found, either in an ar
ticle copied from another print, or in an orig
inal article having a signature, which, it
will be seen, makes others, and not myself,
responsible for It's use. lf the brother will
fad that title, or any kindred one, from my
pen, within the last two years, will ex-
plain TO his satisfaction, or acknowledge
myself worthy of censure for partiality-oy
at least for carelessness. Through the care
lessness of the printers, errors have occa-
sionally occurred in copying marriages,
which may have given occasion for censure
! can only assure the brother, who puts me
the question above, that shall be very sor-
ny TODD anything TO give him just occasion
TO suppose | uudervalue his minister. Nc
partiality has been designed. Nothing ha:
been done inimically. | certainly have
great love and regard for his minister.

From the Transcript of last evening.

A Gentleman who was at Sloninoton
last evening. aud came passenger thence
ia the regular train. this morning, in.
forms US that the first intelligence of the
o'Saster- received there, was by an express
from New-Haven, which gave the ac-
count as above reported, on The authority

The Amistad Africans Released.
The accounts OF the Emancipator and
journal of Commerce. which will be
found IN the preceding page, bring the

The meetings of the two great political factions

Yesterday with great noise
great numbers, sand as usual, great wisdom blended
with some folly. The sun rose in unciouded ma

the day was partially suspended, except the business
of eating, drinking singing, and betting on the can

Several gentlemen estimated the number that at

about II 900 or Is 000-and at that estimate 1t
was larger than the meeting at the Park

From the Christian Reflector.


A very pleasing work of revival has
been in. progress in the Third Baptist
church in Providence, under the pastoral
care ofRev. NJ. M. Dean. @
The number Of those who have become
reconciled to God il is impossible definite
" to determine. Tbepastor has administer
ed the pleasing and solemn ordinance Of
baptism at five several times. Sixty-nine
have been. added to the church by profess
ion of faith and baptism; two been re-
ceived by profession, and six have joined
by letter. Others are expected soon TO
take up the cross by following the ex-
ample of our Lord. Ofthe seventy-seven
thus added to the church. thirty-three are
men, many of whom are the heads ofyoung
and promising families
We have greatly rejoiced in the pro
gress of the work, and keen led to ad
mire the goodness and wisdom Of the Saw
ior. 1t has been "time OF refreshing
from the presence Of the Lord - to on
almost fainting spirits it has been elk
the shadow of a great rock in a wear
land" "Bless the Lord O! my SOUL"

THE GREAT STORM IN ORIssA.
From Correspondent at PooIee.

On Thursday, the Both Of April, one Of
the most violent storms ever remembered
in Urissa visited the station of Poree and
surrounding district. The wind blew
from the north east early in the morning.
The surf was unusually high and roar
ing. Out Offices were levelled, and
clouds of sand buried every thing; but
the disasters of the day were as nothing
in comparison with what the night bro't.
! The wind suddenly shifted round to west
and south west, and commenced In all It's
fury. Every one sat waiting for the
worst, running from one room to another
as the house gave way, and when the
general rush came, it was fearful, the wind
and rain so boisterous that no one could
stand erect exposed to them.
The darkness of the night totally pre-
vented any communication from on
house to another, and it was not unit
morning that the whole truth could b
known. Alas! every bungalow in tn
station has been destroyed-not one
there that can possibly be inhabited. Ga
solitary pucka-house stood the bulletin
/ of the storm, as it would appear, intende
as a refuge for the destitute.
The city has suffered 10 great exteI
indeed; every house has been blow
, down, but the immortal remains of Jur
, gurnaut lie undisturbed in his celebrate
: temple. The surrounding villages hay
. been equal sufferers, and a camp belon!
a ing to the revenue surveyor, about
n miles distant. was totally destroyed
q Large trees strew the road, and mar
: lives have been lost in consequence. o.

him and expose his slime and deformity to
public gaze and brother w. acknowledges
allegiance to his mandate, and responds, |
cannot touch it, But what makes brother
WIS position appear more ridiculous, if pos
sible, is, he further declared it his belief that
the principles our Savior and the Apostles
laid down, if carried out, would eventually
and fnally destroy slavery. then put the
question, in sober earnestness, TO his con-
science: Can !, then, as minister OF Jesus,
o successor Of the apostles, build church
nraet;callv on the foundation Jesus and the
APOSTLES have laid and have slavery in it J.?
The reply was, choose to draw my own
inferences from my principles. pressed
the question the second time, whether ac-
cording TO his own doctrine, | could raise
IN church that would be practically ready
for the coming of our Lord, and according
TO bis mind, and retain slavery in it; ant
received the same answer-he chose to draw
bis own differences from his premises.
