THE TRUE TENDENCY OF PARTY.

Of all the objections alleged against the Lib
erty Party, none is more unsound, than the pre-
dcti"n that for the sake Of gaining adherents,
it will lower the standard of its principles. The
instinct of self-preservation will prevent it from
doing this; its success depends upon rigid ad-
herence to its principles.
Any compromise Of these would excite the
distrust Of the friends of human liberty, and
forfeit their support, without securing the adj
herence of single foe of human rights; for
enough of the anti-slavery element would still
remain to excite his disgust. The only hope of
the Liberty party is, in winning the confidence
and support of the true men of the country
theSe who love liberty and hate despOtism-those
WHO place Justice above all considerations OF
peeuniory interest or party policy. And there
is but one way in which these can be attached
to it, and that is, by uncompr.mising fidelity to
the principles it has avowed.
How is it with other parties Do they at
tempt to succeed, by diluting their principles
Take the democratic party-who are its candl
dates! Half way, compromising men! No
they the ultraists, those who avow the whole
democratic creed, without reservation or abate
ment. The truth is, the tendency of politica
party is to bigoted attachment to its principles
and an extreme application of them-be its prin
ciples good or bad
Why should the Liberty party be an exception
to what reason aud observation alike teach ?

Dr.. BAILFY-An act of the most outrageous

from several gentlemen, and they substan-

A family of colored persons, consisting Of a
man. his wife, and 4 children, residing on the farm
of Mr.. Penn, on Indian Creek, had their house
broken open about the hour of midnight, and
some half dozen more white Williams entered

eighteen years Their children were all born
there. The wife and her sister had been brought
into the county by maiden lady her slaves,

husband was also free, and it is said their free

Began a song unknOwn
song unknown to angel ears,
A song that told of blnshed fears,

Could these high notes attain!
But spirits from distant coast
United in the strain;
Till he who first begin the song,
To sing alone not suffered long,
Was mingled with a countless throng.
And still, as hours are feeting by,
The angels ever bear
Some newly ransomed soul on high,
To Join the chorus there;
And so the song will louder grow,
Till all redeemed by Christ below

ANTI-SLAVERY HYMN.
Guide us, o thou great Jehovah;
Save, o save our guilty land
Though our foe is proud and mighty,
Bind him with thy powerful hand:
See, he RACES;
Bind him with thy powerful hand.
Open thou the prison doors,
Bid the bondman freely go;
Let thine arm, revealed in power,
Bear his cause triumphant through.
Strong Deliverer,
Bear his cause triumphant through.
While he t-eads the wheel of slavery,
Bid his hopeless felrs subside;
Bear him through expressions current,
Land him safe on freedoms side:
Songs of praises
Freedoms friends will give to thee.

HABITUAL PROFANITY.


Samuel Young, has, in answer to an inquiry of
the assistant superintendent, decided that ha-
bituaI profsneness," is disqualification for a
teacher of common school. We copy his let

exception.

DEAR SIR,-You inform me that your opin-
ion that habituat profanity would be sufficient
ground for annulling certificate, is deemed by
some teachers " altogether too rigid" and you

Could ever have obtained certificate as qhai.
flied teacher. But such certificate having
been procured, no matter by what means,
should deem it the imperative duty of any tri-
buna having the power, to affix upon it at the
earliest moment, the blot of annulment and if
possible of oblivion.
