Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1845-11-21

Liberty party; the papers which At interests
itself to sustain, are Liberty party papers, and
from what we can learn Of its general action,
TIVE think it will not complain of Injustice
when we say it has striven to build up Lib
erty party. IL then tits in fact the "lndiana
Liberty party Association" we 81 lid be
clad to have it assume its real and approprl-
ate name. II will be seen by reference TO
the minutes, that S. s. Foster offered a series
pf resolutions; the first, asserting the moral
character Of the anti-slavery enterprise, and
declaring that the Indiana Society could not
allow its influence and funds to be used by
at, official representatives to build up any re-
l~igious sect or political party, without a vlo-
1ation Of the faith pledged to its MEMBERS
and a departure from its appropriate sphere OF
action. The society voted 0TtO lay IL up
I'm The table.-0 The other resolutions relat-
;nq to the Constitutional question, pere under
.d;,cu,sion ,clen the meeting adjourned sine
die. Our readers can draw their con-
,clusions from these facts.
That embodiment OF Liberty party prlncl-
snles. James G. Birney, atflrms that " Inc
American Churches are the Bulwarks OF A.
pmerican Slavery" yet it does not appear from
abe INMATES that any attack was MADE uPo"
THE Bulwarks or their defenders why was
%as4t Can the reason be found In the iact
that so many Of the Liberty party are mein-
hers Of pro-slavery churches, that they feared
,ho Introduction of the subject would lead to
ascension, The best thing which the socle-
tv did. was to take high ground in relation to
the movements of the members OF the London
Delegation, describing their conduct as "e1-
trench temporizing and hypocrif'caf'' ana
,ho;r characters as "cringing and %serUiIe;'
declaring it could place no confidence In 'he
call of such men for a Worlds Convention
We are glad the Indiana abolitionists uttered
the lust and indignant rebuke "hicn lneSe
nseudo abolitionists so richly merit. we re-
io;ce that even at the price Of that union and
harmony which the editor of the Advocate SO
oro,,lv loves. that when their own rights
1yere attacked they welcomed discord and dis
sension; and as much as he deprecateS us IL
PRODUCTION by others, he is among the hrst 10
make the attack upon his fellow abolitionlsts
when his peculiar views are questioned anu
his course condemned. Had he ana MS
fr;ends oiven more attention to what they term
.. SHE eastern controversy" they would nave
learned ere this that no faith can be Pla'
ced in the abolitionism of the British and
FOREIGN Anti-Slavery Society. 1t may be
very rood so far as it goes, but II goes
such a little way, and moves in such aris
tocratic state, and acts with such sectari
an DIGNITY, that we think it best to have moth
ing to do with it. They sent a very hl
specimen of it out to Indiana, and our frienu'
there have learned that it cannot stand, ane
no anti-slavery can, that loves sect better thai
humanity. The Indiana abolitlonlsts nav
inst bepun to learn the lesson they shoul'
have conned some five years since. Inc.
have been cropping their way in blindness
shutting their eyes to the TRUTH fearing ina
if they opened them they should see an cas-
ern controversy" The putting off the Tim
has not obviated the necessity OF learning IN
.lesson-learning that that party here whic
is in harmony with the British commune
which approves its action, and whose acuO
in turn is approved by the governing lnn'
ence of that body, is doing what 1t can
Save the sects from the attacks which TIL
old organized anti-slavery makes upon then
and is therefore unworthy the confidence
abolitionists-that Liberty party instead
aidinu in the overthrow of slavery, is protec
inc the monster in his strong hold, u
Church, and opposes those who would Id
strip from his loathsome form the stolen IL
ery of the court of Heaven-that those WI
wish to destroy his power must storm I
h,lwark behind which he has entrench
himself; and that, not by the weapons OF 7
litical strength, but with that moral pow
which is made mighty through God. Weho
that now having commenced contention d
searching examination, the position oil p
81 ssssed abolitionists in America will be look
iato, as we'll as that occupied by their pre
ern in England, and we trust they Will Sc
searp that the ranks of the slaves advoca
must become "6rst pure, then peaceable.'
We shall send a copy of this to the Ed
of the Advocate, so that by transferring II
his columns we may have the privilege
talking a little with his readers.
