sists IN multiplying ornamental trees in
our villages, in our cities, and on the
road sides, may be regarded as a public
benefactor,-for all can enjoy the beauty
OF the foliage, and the comfort of the (
shade of an elm, an ash, "a linden, or [
maple.-Merc. Journal
SLAVERs CAPTURED.-We learn by |
an arrival at Boston. from st. Helena, that
on the l4th ult, said vessel left at that
place 8 slavers, having been captured by
British eruisers-that one Of them had
landed three hundred Africans-that the
other had THEN slaves or. board, and about
one half ofthem had died of small pox.-
The slave trade will be carried on, so
long as men are dishonest and dishonor-
able enough to hold slaves, and this they
will be, SO long as men will vote to sus-
tain slavery, or protesting christians and
ministers to apologize for the system, or
maintain an almost dead silence over it, as
in our country.-Colored American.
| SUPREME Court AND MIssIss1PP1-
The Mississippi slave case, which has been
before the Supreme Court of the United
States, has been decided in favor of the
slave dealers. The slave buyers of Mis-
sissippi, therefore, have got to pay dear
for their whistle, and are not a going so
easi TO cheat their accomplices in wrong,
out Of their money. 1t is a pity that both
should not be equal losers.-COlored
American.
OUrRAeEoUs,-Notwi!hstanding the
dmti mobocratlc and argumentatve charge
of Judge Helfenstoin, to the Grand Jury,
in the case of the Dayton rioters, we learn
that not single acbite man was indicted
Who would have believed it? Who sci
fire to the houses which were burned
down over the heads of the colored PEG
Pile? White men,! And yet this is no
sufficient violation Of law and order, in
the mind of the Grand Jury, for them tc
find an indictment. Outrageous !-CoI
oTed American.
The good fruit ofthe West India Eman
cipation is row being gathered. The las
Baptist Missionary Magazine brings thu
cheering intelligence that the Sabbath
i Schools are fourishing-that the peopI,
are Industrious and happy-and that the
churches are rapidly increasing. Mr.
Rae baptized on the LIST of August last, a
one station, seventy-two believers in thu
Lord Jesus. At another station, on thu
5lh, sevenly-fve who brought forth fruits
meet for repentance. Among others, there
) were several maimed-two with wooder
Iegs-the sad marks of their former crue
t treatment from merciless tyrants. Chris!

INDIAN MAssAcRE.-A letter to tn

FNvorth, gives an account of most coward
Wy and bloody massacre committed b
: some Kansas upon some Pawnees:
1.-THE dastardly Kansas-sixtv-five i
number-~took advantage of the absenc
: of the Pawnee warriors from their en-
: campment, and massacred all but II G
the women and children found in it. On
woman sold her life dearly. She sprans
upon one of the Kansas warriors, like
4 igress-clutched his throat, and wouI
J have strangled him if her arms had nc
t been hewn from her body. The Pawne
: prisoners were reached by detachmen
: of the American force stationed at Fol
Leavenworth, and had been brought int
Bell levin. This massacre will be a sig
nal for fierce war between the Pawnee
and Kansas" IN, E. CT. Advocate.
