THE SPIRIT OF WISCONSIN.

The following resolution was offered at the
annual meeting of the Wisconsin Ant-Slavery
Society, by the venerable Father Perkins, Of
Burlington
25. Resolved, That we, the pioneers of the
Liberty party of Wisconsin, the young lion O
the great Empire of the West, will adjure allegi
cnce to all parties, laws, and constitutions, (no
excepting our own party consttution) whenever
in our own individual opinions they shall conflict
with the immutabe principles of Gods everlas-
ting truth, righteouness, peace, and love; not
only love to God whom we have not seen, buI
love also to our brother man, whom we have
seen, and we pledge Ourselves resolutely to follow
the monitions of conscience emanating from
these laws, wherever they may lead us, till tht
Northern white slaves, both Wing and Democrat
ashamed any longer to crouch under the insolencc
and servitude which their Southern masters have
so long inflicted upon them, will join us, and by
numerical force, and moral power alone, we shal
come off triumphant in the liberation of maj
from servtude

MR.. TORREY.

Rev. E. W. jackson writes from Baltimore,
March 20 " / visited to-day the penitentary
to see my cid friend Rev. G. T. Torrey. AT
first saw him through little Aperture in the
partition; he had finished his task for the day at
weaving by o'clock, and was reading his BIZ
bic and prayer-bool, the only books he is allow
ed. These books he reads all the time when he
is not at work. requested of Mr. johnson,
the gentlemanly warden, the privilege of an in
teryiew, which he said was contrary to their
rules; but as had been introduced by one Of
the directors as a clergyman, he would grant me
the privilege So he called Towey into the
office, and allowed me to converse with him as
long as pleased. He is in good health-appe-
tite good takes water for breakfast and supper
in preference to the coffee, which is made OF
rye. When asked him how he prospered spir-
tually, he replied, o Br Jackson, | have fo1
the last three months been unspeakably happy
this forenoon at work, thought if it we're al
lowed, | would shout as you Mehodsts do. He
says he means to ask for books and paper
and thinks it will be granted. He says he still
loves Ills Tlenos, ana WISHES lie 10 express IL u
them. He told me he had great satisfaction il
praying for his wife and children. Many OF the
people here think he never meant wrong, al
though they think he did wrong His situation
is much more comfortable than could be expec
ted. His friends who are in Baltimore ma,
see him, if they take the proper course and
if they are clergymen, they will not even need
permission

Here is the testimony of one who said he was
no abolitionist. Southern men, fthey would ex-
anime the subject, would find important truth in
it. They would learn the grand secret of the
prosperity of the North-Iudiana Freeman.
