FREDERIC DOUGLASS.


A letter from one of the Hutchinson 'Family,' now
in England, to the editor Of the Lynn Pioneer, gives us
some interesting particulars respecting the voyage Of
this American slave across the Atlantic. lie went out
Ill one Of the Cunnard stcamers-We forget which
and was compelled, in difference to American preiu-
dIces to take passage in the seerage. Among the pas
sengcrs were several shareholders and few dough
faces, who were very much offended with the captain
for allowing the self eunclpated slave free access to
all parts oil the vessel except the saloon Frederick is
SAID to have behaved with great proprety modesty and
dignity, and to have won the admiration OF large
number Of the passengers. Being an intimate friend Of
the hutchinson family, he frequently walked with them
and Others on the quarter deek and participated, with
much freedom Us his position would allow, In the
cial Intercourse OF the passengers generally.
Mr.. Hutchinson thus describes a scene Which occur
red on the lest day Of the voyage
The captain with many other gentlemen and some
laGes learning that Douglass good speaker, were
excited to hear him. lie was accordingly invited to
speak on the promenade deck, and consented. Due
notice was given, and To- when the time came, the A.
mefican Slave came forward, and after making few
Introductory rcmarks, opened small book and began
torcad thecode Of slave laws Of South Caolna. This
was more than the Americans could bear. The dis
turbaucG Was commenced by CoHacdcW lqakte--a

he said, to carry cut his christian prncipea lie in
teuuptcd by disPutng every sentence winch was read.

euce if he should 20 on. Then cane the tug Of war"
This Yankee Baptist was backed up by the slave
monge8, while DouglGsJ was sustained by the Eng
lishmen. And all that the cool heads could DO WIS
hardly sufficient to preyeGa scene Of bloodshcd. The
captain was very COOL at inst but finding himself gross
ly insultcd by STAKEHOLDER from New Orleans who
made lis boast that he owned q hundred and thirty
nggors he tho coptln ordered the boatswanto 'call

ncafS rUajar. lie then addressed himself to the au-
dence about as follows;

PARTING.

How painful the hour that compols us to part
With the friends that we cherish as gems of the
heart
But ali! more severe when the parting is told
With voice unimpassoned an aspect that's cold
When the sigh meets no sigh from an answering
breast
When the hand, pressing warmly, vainly sued to be
prest;
For then tits not absence alone we deplore,
But friendship decayed and affection no more
From the friends that we love when we wander alone
Our thoughts unozpressoda and our feelings unknown,
Whilst hope strives in vain through futurltys gloom
To destroy one bright moment in season to come;
But then if a sigh be but heard from the breast,
If the hand pressing warm, in requital be prest,
Some soft recoections will still be in store,
Though in parting we feel we may never meetmore.

Peace Department
The War Spirit

4 The Washington Union continues to glow
with accounts Of the military spirit of the coun.
\. try According to the representations Of thai
paper offers Of service from individuals and vol.
unteer companies are pouring in from all sec
tlons sufficient to overwhem Mexico by the
mere weight of numbers. If it is necessary
that fighting should be done, we would suggest
that, on our part, it be left entirely to volunteers
The plinlu emotions excited by accounts of
suffering and mortality which disease even more
than the sword will cause among our troops
may be alIeyated somewhat by the reflection
that the victims were driven to their fate by no
arbitrary eompulsion. Let the martyrs to their
country's ambition be willing martyrs Let the
heroes Of this aggressive war march freely to
"glory and the grave" When death has placed
them beyond the reach of our voice. its "cold
Idull car" shall be greeted with blast from the
trumpet of lenown. We can then solace our
selves with the thought that their part was cho-
sen by themselves, aud verify they have their re-
ward
But unfortunately it is not possible that war
can be maintained by such voluntary sari6ces
The spontaneous fire soon subsidies beneath the
dampniDg influence Of priyaton and toll Con-
scripton is necessary to fill the ranks which the
chances and labors of the field have thnned
and poverty, misfortune, or reckless passions,
must be taken advantage of to force unwilling
men to become the instruments and the subjects
of buchery,
A war of defence differs from a war of az
erosion as light from darkness. The first is sus-
tanned by forgetulness Of selfish considerations,
the after depends solely upon them for its slim
illus to eXertion, Let then cur armies be made
up only of those whom cupidity or ambition may
tempt into service. Let every soldier be free to
60 OF come, as he chooses; and let those who
like, contribute to the cost. A war carried on
by such means, will fairly test the reality Of that
war spirit Of which so much boast is made, and
exhaust the fever of its hot-5lood with compar-
atlvely little harm to the peacefully Inclined

unsubstantiaI good, have made up almost its sum.
All, how seldom are its early promises fulfilled;
even ifthe world spread all its gifts before men,
yet they are transient as the morning dew Yes,
the Christian has chosen the better patti his
hope shall not fade Well, well, when ! reach
that envious elevation, when have gathered a
little more wealth; when have brought few
more worldly schemes to successful termination,

world; will be Christian.

reasons, bcguied Of Heaven!

formed many heaps of this compost, In fort
night afterwards, the change in the masses was
astonishing, taking dung fork and opening the
tops ofthe heaps thick smoke issued from them
In four weeks time examined them for insects
and could not find one, even the flies would moi
touch the heaps. Some heaps that had no sucl
treatment were moving masses of insects. Lime

from the compost not at all so. Actual experi
