From Tie ". Y. Herald.
FROM ST. DOMINGO,

We are informed by Captain Cut's, Of the
brig Hayti, from Port all Prince having left
that place on the 3Oth ult., that matters in .
political way were gradually assuming a
peaceful appearance, and that Ex-President
Pierot had sent in his submission to the new
administration A runor was prevalent when
he left, that the Dominicans had made ? pro-
position of peace to the Haytisns, which
would No doubt be accepted.
The principles of the new government TN
der President Richie seem to meet with gene
raj appreciation. The inhabitants are now
permitted to cut mahogany, and other con-
c~essions granted to them, which, under the
old administration was deemed unconstitu.
tional.
The Island was very healthy, coffee scarce
and high.

RELIGIOUS FRrEDoM.-"T The Charleston,
South Carolina papers state that on a late
hour on Sunday evening about $50 blacks
were carrying on their religious proceedings
until after ct p. NJ. when Marshall Prince,
having been informed of the fact, obtained a
posse of The city guards, and succeeded nar-
resting 20 Of the c~uIpri,s, who were dealt
with as the law Directs"
OF course! What business had the black
r~ascals to be praying contrary to law! Is
not daylight long enough for their religious
meetings !-they hav'nt SO many sins to an
swer for, that they must needs hold on till
dark! Who knows but some of the content
ed and happy niggers who wouldn't take
their freedom if they could get it, were plot
ting instruction! What if their masters
were holding a Missionary meeting at the
same time, tina, is no excuse for them! It's
our duty to send the Bible to the heather;
and we who live in this blessed land where
every mans right to worship God as he will
is fully acknowledged, should do all we can
to make others as free as ourselves

The Courier dcs Eiats Unis states positive
ly, that the various factions in Mexico, OPP
posed to the government Of Peredes, have
agreed to act together, taking Santa Anna as
their chief, provided he will give the requi-

accordingly been opened, in the course Of
which Santa Anna has explained his former

private life. The Courier processes to speak

A BLESSING.

aft the slanderers of the South will con-
descend to travel through this wicked Com
monwealth, they will find a race of men,
more contented, happy, and kindly treated,
than any other class of laborers in the world.
They will find them well fed, well clothed,
tenderly nursed in sickness, and comfortably
supported in old age. Let them contrast this
condition Of things with that of the free blacks
and poor whites of the northern States
When the slaves Of Virginia are reduced to
similar misery and degradation, it will be
time enough tor the sympathizers TO whine
over their hopeless ot."-Richmond Wing.
If we receive as truth this declaration Of
the Wing, then must we conclude that the
man-market at Richmond is but a pleasant
fiction, Virginia's slave-code a creature Of the
Imagination, and her scared and manned fu-
gitives the mere phantoms of a d seased
brain. We must admit that the thumb-screw
lisa child's plaything, the branding iron a de-
sirablc toy, and cat-hauling a pleasant recrea-
ton that hloodhounds have lost their natu re
or their fangs, that stripes are joyful and star
vatiOn a blessing. We must regard the sePa-
ration of families, a thing to be longed for ;
spiritual degradation. Gods best gift to man;
and intellectual blindness, the perfection Of
happiness. We must look upon the driver as
possessing a meek and gentle spirit the
overseer as Astounding in kindness and chart
ty and the master as a practical christian
We must in short contend that wrong is right
that hatred is the fulfilling of the law, anC
that Belial is the embodiment of Christ.

THE ALL-CoNQUERING DoLLAR.-Al late act
Of the Legislature in Louisiana shows that
money is even stronger than prejudice. Two
women Of ST. Domingo, who had inherited a
large property from a relative in Louisiana,
valued at about Sl5o,oOO, applied for the pvi-
vilege OF settlement in the State. as the ne.
cessary condition to their securing the proper
ty. and their application was sustained by the
planters Of the parish in which they wished
to reside. A bill was accordingly introduced
into the Legislature, in accordance with tho
terms Of the application, and was discussed
at length. Some opposed it on the ground
that their laws against free negroes ought to
be equal in their operation, and they certainly
could see no reason why colored emigrants
from St. Domingo, an island where events of
fearful p%ortent to the STAKEHOLDER had taken
place, should be favored with a suspension of
those laws. 1t was urged that their position
would preserve them from association with
the slave population, bu; the real reason
which prevailed on the Legislature at last to
grant their application, by a vote of 46 to Is,
was, that they were heiresses to d large for
tune-belnnged in fac, to the aristocracy Of
the planters The same cause will bring
them plenty of white %suitors, asking their
hands in marriage Gin. Herald.

tain candidates for Eldership and Deaconship
were questioned in the above named Confe-

AMERICAN PHoNoSaApHtc ~JouRNAL.-This
paper is issued monthly BY Andrews and
Boyle, Boston. 1t is handsomely executed
on coPperplase, so that it may easily be read
by'ah who are acquainted with the principles
upon which Photography is based. Its terms
are 81 per annum in advance. We have not
until recently seen a notice of this Journal,
or we should have called the attention of our
readers to it before.
Photography, or writing by sound, and
Phonotypy, or printing by sound, are now
claiming a great share Of the public attention,
and if they continue to be regarded favorably,
will effect a great revolution in the science
Of language. Our present system Of writing
and printing, which is governed solely by ar
bitrary rules, and made up in a great measure
Of signs which have no natural connection
with the sounds they represent, and Of silent
letters which are Of no use, serving only to
confound the ideas Of the learner, ought TO be
superseded, and doubtless will be, either by
Photography and Phonotypy in their presen,
form, or in their improved and mature state.
Not only ia such a change desirable for those
whose correspondence or writing is extensive
for hose who desire to become reporters, but
the child will no longer be perplexed and con.
fused by the endless jargon of the presen,
system, finding in this improvement an easy
and pleasant task TO progress from first prin.
ciPles TO a perfect knowledge of reading and
writing the English language. The Publish.
ers Of the Journal lately taught a class of col.
ored children in Boston to read and write in
one month-they having no knowledge of our
present system, which was probably an adj
vantage.
Persons DESTROYS OF making themselves ac-
q~uainted with Photography by books, can
obtain all that are necessary by applying to
the Editors of the Journal.
William C. Alexander is at the present
time teaching a class in this place, and will
probably visit other towns in Ohio. We be-
speak for him a candid hearing, and think his
auditors will always admit that his lectures
are interesting as well as instructive.
o. If any of our readers wish to subscribe
for the Photographic Journal, we will gladly
forward their names to the Publishers.

patriotism furnished but one seventh as MANY
continental troops as New England. In her
population Of ! $40, 900, there are So, 900 who
cannot read or write, or one to every 81, Will.
in New England there are but l3, 1000 in g..
9s5 900, or one to every 1918. Virginia has
$4,000 children in primary schools, and New
England $4,000. The annual products of
Virginia amount to $1,000 900, those of
New England to sise, 900, 900.
From these facts we infer that If, as the
editor of the Wing al1irms, "the whole his
tory of the Republic of Hay,i, has shown the
utter unftness of its people for any condition
but that of thraldom," the whole history Of
Virginia has shown the utter unftness Of lis
people for any condition but tina, of slavery ;
and we would therefore suggest to him whelh.
er consistency with the principles he advo-
Gates should not induce him to urge the pco-
pie OF Virginia t. put up themselves and their
State at public auction, and strike off the lot
to the highest bidder.

THE WESLEYANS.

The voters of the Wesleyan Methodist
Church al GAINESVILLE, have requested Samuel
Lewis to give his views in relation to his
connection with the NJ. E. Church I; and as
sure him that if he shows that he is not
connected morally with a slaveholding church,
which they affirm they consider the Meiho-
dist Episcopal to be, they will support him
at the coming election. They also designate
the Herald and Philanthropist as the medium
through which his views had better be given
to the public.
We think these Wesleyan voters act
strangely in asking Samuel Lewis to show
that he can innocently belong to a church
which they regard as too pro-slavery for them
hold christian fellowship with.
In regard to having his views put in print,
DR.. Bailey very sagaciously intimates that he
had better define his position in person to the
audiences he may address. Political let
iers killed Martin Van Buren,, defeated
Henry Clay, and were far from assisting
James G. Birney and it is considerate in
the Dr.. to advise Liberty party's candidate
to beware of political letters, or "r:wspape,
manyssiOes " as he calls them.

district in Virginia, and is excelled BY
few, if any, sections Of the United
States, in beauty and fertility. The
soil is generally strong limestone
one, admirably adapted to the produc.
ton Of wheat and corn, and favorable
to the perfection Of all the fruits cul-

of the farm Of Col. Joseph Tuley,
near Winchester, the principal point
of trade in the Valley. Itis beau

which about 800 acres are under cul-
