Thine DO the glory bright,
Source Of all power and light,
For thou hast said in might,
Man shall be free.

See his dread miniOns cover.

Man will be free.

Sing in the mighty lhrOng,
Sing jubilee
Let the broad welkin ring,
While to Heavens mighty King,
Honor and praise we sing,
For man is free.

The joys Of Temperance tell,
Till every valley, hill, and plain,
The song responsive swell.

And while the notes pTolong
Let thousands turn from sinful ways,
And join the happy throng.

Aspire as heaven is the water given,

Distilled in the sky, it comes from on high
In the shower and the gentle dew
A mirror fair, in the Silly air,
Is the lake and the streams smooth flow,
And the stars in their track see flashing back
Their brightness as on they co.

APPEAL TO THE FRIENDS OF TEMPERANCE
Friend of man, and foes to madness,
Let your voices loudly sounds
Speak! remove natlOus Sadness
See you not the foe around
Lift on high the Temperance banner
treemcn! ireemen to your post;
Hear the victims how they stammer!
llastcn-savc them, or they're lost
Look cen now drunken father!
Reels along yOn noisy way;
From their home the wrctched mother
Leads her trembling babes away.
Father, rouse thee see yon treasure;
Yonder thoughtless, yielding one,
Socks the goblet for his pleasure,
Madly quafls, and is undone.
Sisters snatch thy wretched brother
:, From the spoilers cruel grasp,
Ere another-yet another
Victim to their arms they clasp!
Wife! with heart almost to breaking,
Hast thou not word to say?
Canst thou thus be slumbcr taking,
While thy husband is thor prey?
Husband! watch around her pathway
Save thy idol from the snare
Tear her from their fangs away.
Husband husband, Oh, beware!
Oh let not thy children curse thee,
AS the authors Of their woe
Fathers, mothers, rouse thee--rOuse thee,
Break the fatal chain and go!
Patriots, Christians, friends Of freedom!
The Cry is loud-can nought be done
Nought to break this cruel thraldom?

The following extract shows, that the zeal
of some British abolitonsts for the emancipa-
ton of slaves in this country, has caused them
to overlook their own fellow subjects We do
not speak irrevorcntly, when we advise them
to remove first the bcum from their own eye.
The situation of slaves i'm British India is of the
most dreadful character They are treated
more ms brutes than human beings, and yet
their cause has not enlisted the zeal of those
intrepid advocates of freedom, who have so
deeply pcnt,ircd as to cross the Atlantic in or
der to preach of the horrors of slavery in the
free cities of this country! Before making any
further attempt to Interfere in the internal
relations ofour country it would be ms we'll that
they should look at home Il may be that be-
cause.-the Indian slavcs draw their descent
from the same step pof Japhct that we Writes do,
they are unworthy of the attention bestowed
upm the descendants of him of when it was
said, "A servant of servants shall nc be unto
his brethcrn.'
SLAVERY IN lNpiA.-There is a course of
slavery followed up by lnduo born tiprnalcs of
disrcputabie character, which has as vet cs-
capped the notice Of many scr,Itinous inquirer
into the subject. Very poor natives are in the
habit of selling their ttmale children fol a very
inconsldcrablc sum to persons ofthc above de-
Scrlption, who regard them as slaves, and treat
them with the most revolving cruelty. These
poor unprotected beings are numerous through
out Calcutta, and are looked upon by their
mcrcilcss rctainers as little if anything better
than brute beasts. In the year ISIS, Que Ma
ria Davis, an Anglo Indian of disslutc habits,
was tried and convicted before Sir Charles
Grey, then Chct-Justice of Bengal, on a charge
of murder, jnasmuch as she had DESTROYED u
slave girl, thirteen years of age, by dragging
her repeatedly up ard down stone staircase
by the legs, thereby manning her head and face
in most brutal manncr, The prisoner, in her
defence, in most caiIous manner, attempted
to justify her conduct, by stating to the court
that the deceased was her slave and that she
had right to do as She pleased with her. The
wrctched woman was, however, ordered for
! execution and the drop was accordingly erected
| for that purpose, but she eventually received
a respite, and her previous sentense was COM
mu,cd TO that ot transportation for life. She
was afterwards exiled TO the Mauritius, where
she died. This is only one solitary feature o.
the baueful effects of slavery in the East Indies

Opinion of an English Statesman on Free
Non great while ago, when proposition was
brought before the British lIou c of Commons, by
Ministers, to reduce the duty upon French Wines,
Mr. RoBERrsoS, distinguished mcmil,er Of that
body, gave the following definition Of the meaning
Of Ftce Trade:
ut was idle for u.s. he continued, TO enAeavor TO
persuade other nations to Join with in adopting
The principles of what was called Free Trade.
Other nations knew as wall as the noble Lord op.
posite, and those who acted with him, that what
we meant 10y Free Trade nothing more nor
less, than, by means of the great advantages en-.
joyed, TO get a monopoly of all their markets for
our manufactures and 10 prevent them, one and all,
from ever becoming manufacturing nations"
Let the American advocates Of the Ftce Trade
System ponder seriously upon this lucid English
definition of their favorie theory. Let the Wing
majority in Congress decide whether they are will
| ling to allow the English manufacturers to get a
monopoly If our market, and deprive the lahorcrs
/ Of our country Of the honest futs of their indus
