graphic descriplaon ofthe Bombardmen
Of Mog0dore- Tie Destruction ofhe T00
Eight Hundred Lires L0st'-The cor
respondent of the New York Evening
Post, furnishes the following graphic &C
count of the late bombardmeDt, and the
subsequent battle, under date of Sep
TENDER 2d:-
"The bombardment of Tangier, by
the French, has been followed by the de-
struction of Mogadore. The latter was
not quite such child's play as the for
mer. Yhe entrance to Mogadore is COW
cred by an island, on which, according
to accounts, were APO pieces of cannon,
and garrison Of four or five hundred
men. On the 18th of August,th French
fleet arrived f'the coast, u experienced
some bad weather, so that, though they
had two hundred fathoms of chain cable
out, their anchors "broke like glass. -
On the 18th, the weather moderated, and
the march on Mogadore was commenced
by The Belle POwle lrigate and three ar
med briggs. The reception however,
which they met with, was of SO warm a
character, that victory hung in the bal
ance. and the sun went down without
onv decisive results. On the 18th, it
was resolved to storm the island, upon
which five hundred picked men IA force
superior in point of numbers, to say no.
thing of discipline, to that of the garri-
son. landed under the command of Capt.
Duquesne.
The Moors fought CALAMITY, full half
of them Tell ytaghan in hand-the others
capitulated. The French having now
possession of the island, turned its bat
ferries upon the illiated city, and NIGGA
dore was presently heap OF ruins. / he
wretched inhabitants, twelve or fifteen
thousand in number, fled in all directions
and the barbarous Kabyles, descending
from the hills, seized upon whatever was
valuable and fired the remaining houses
in all directions. The French lost a
number of men in their attack on the
island, and at this point of the affair, the
Prince de Joinviile is stated TO have be-
haved with great courage. The French
left a O arrison on the island for the rath-
or needless purpose ofwatchins the ru-
ms of Mogadore, and the squadron then
took its de parture for Cadlz.
"W hist such was the course oil oper-
atoms on The coast, inland the French
were no less successful. Marshal Ba-
gued marched couple of leagues into
the Moorish territory, and was met by
an army of nearly 10000 cavalry head
ed by a son of the Emperor A battle
took place, when the Marshal was COM
petcly successful. The Moors left eight
hundred on The field, and all their mate
rieL, and were supposed to have had two
thousand wounded. The French loss
was about thirty killed and ninety woun-
ded. The Moors foug ht well, and their
defeat is attributed to their total ignor-
ance of scientific combinations, and to
the circumstance of the cavalry being
unsupported by infantry"

SLAVERY AND THE CHURCHES.

SLAVE AMI CIkURCHESs
/. Mr. Hal ding,a preacher ofthe Bal
timore Conference, had been suspended
for slaveholding. lie appealed to the
General Conference, and it affirmed the
decision of the lower body, and left him
still suspended.
@ Bishop Andrew, subsequently to
his appointment had become slavehold
er, was requested to suspend the exer-
else of his episcopal functions until he
had freed himself from his slaveholding
relations. The preamble and resolution
adopted in respect to his case were as
follows:
"Whereas the Discipline Of our
Church iorbds the doing anything cal
culated to destroy our itinerant general
superintendency; and whereas Bishop
Andrew has become connected with
slavery, by marriage and otherwise,
and this act having drawn after 1t CIR
cumstances which in the estimation of
the General Conference will greatly
embarrass the exercise Of his office as
itinerant general superintendent, if not
in some places entirely prevent t;thcre-
fore,-
"Resolved, That it is the sense Of
this General Conference that he desist
from the exercise of his Office so long as
this impeachment remains"
9. The Conference rescinded, by a
vote Of ll5to 40, the resolutions of 1910,
by which the same body then voted to ex-
clude colored testimony in church trials
in all those States where the civil law
excluded it from the civil courts.
4. In the face of vigorous attempt
10 secure a different result, the Golfer
ence elected two non Shareholders as
bishops, by decisive vote, over the can
didates Of the Shareholders,
5. A plan was submitted and adopted
for the amicable division TO the decision
of lower conferences and the church.
es.
The result ofthese proceedings is the
discussion, in one form and another, OF
the whole question in all the subordinate
bodies, both South and North. The
southern bodies and churches are found
TO be divided among themselves on the
point. The leading bodies in the free
States are taking the ground that slave
holding minority deserves no special con,
eideration over that OF any other; and
that if Shareholders and their upholders
are not content to abide by the decisions
ofthe highest judlctory of the Church,
they must get out of it as other dissatis-
fed parties have, on their own RESPONSE
bi!ity land as seceders. The prospect
therefore is, that there will be no d'vl'
SION ofthe general body, but that such
Of its southern ministers and members as
are slavery-mad, will be obliged to re-
main where they are, or withdraw as Sc
ceders, to set upa church by themselves

FOR THE VOICE OF FREEDOM.

MAN STEALING.
Across the broad Atlantic main,
The slave ship, bearing DER train
OF demons, seeking after gain,
Sails rapidly along;
To Afric's balmy cline they bear
The seeds Of misery, for there,
If ever, It's indeed but rare
They shun to do wrong,
Upon the freeman of that land,
This iron hearted, fendish band
Doth sieze with uhrelenting hand,
And doom 10 bondage drear;
With home and kindred lie must part,
And yield to savery's lasting smart
The thought with anguish stings his heart,
And black despair draws near.
His broken heart can meier be healed,
In unknown lands his fate is sealed,
To tyrant monsters he must yield,
While life doth yet remain;
Forever gone, those days of yore,
Which passed while on his native shore,
Sweet liberty is his no more,
But bondage, death and pain;
The scene, tits horrid to describe,
Atrocious vilainy would hide
Beneath oblivions darkest tide,
Should 1t but full appear
Reason csteems itfoul disgrace.
Justice is banished from the place,
For sympathy there is no space,
Foul infamy reigns here.
But when the light of truth shall shine
O'er al the world, in every cline,
This evil will in haste decline,
1t can no longer be;
Der hill and valley, all around,
One voice shall liberty resound,
Prolific thunaers shake the ground,
The black man must he free.
