Slavery In its dominions, whilst it exists to
the greater prejudice of humanity.
We are Informed by our correspondent thai
his Highness, the Bey of Tunis, in 1910, is
sued an ordinance, by which he enjoined all
the governors not TO sell slaves by public auc-
ton, hut he gave them liberty to sell them
6H mirechina-that is, privately. This pri-
vate sale did great injury to the unhappy
slaves, because, before this ordinance. if a
slave was ill-treated by his master, he could
compel him by law TO take him to the mar
ket and sell him thus, by an exchange OF
masters, the slave always had "a hope of find
ing one more humane than the last. Now
the unhappy slaves have not this benefit
therefore their owners, to maintain Slavery
In all Its vIgor, when 4 slave demands to be
sold, replies, " 1t is impossible, for | can on
ly sell You bill mircchina." The poor slave
Is thus silent for fear Of being sold to some
other master well known for the harsh treat
ment of his slaves.
Another beueit was also taken away from
these poor creatures. Before this apparent,
but false liberty, all the slaves worked at
night assiduously y, on their own account, and
when they had saved certain sum, they went
with ii to their master and asked for their
freedom. This could not be denied them, as
1t is e%nloined by the Koran. Now they can
not do this, and the poor slave may perish
under an inhuman master. Every sensitive
mind would be filled with horror to hear the
account Of the tyranny which some %proptie-
tors exercise over their slaves it is enough
to state that there are some masters so bar
barous, that besides ~flogging the poor slaves,
and depriving them OF food and clothes, they
will, for caprice or some slight fault, burn
them b%rutally with hot mons, until they ex-
pire under a horrible martyrdom, and when
they are asked what has become of their
slaves, they reply, " have sent them to Tri-
poll"
In conclusion, whoe yer says that the Bey
Of Tunis has abolished Slavery in his States,
lies in his throat. The British Government
has been deceived by those who wanted to
be termed philanthropists, and to get pres
cnts. Those who ought to watch over this
abominahle traffic are lost in aplthy and idle
ness. lr any sccptic should doubt the facts
here exposed, we will prove them by docu-
ments before a competent authority.

WIN. GOODELL ON LIBERrY PARTY.
This gentleman, in a letter TO the Perry
Countryman, tn is speaks of the sta5naiion of
Liberty party =
From some cause, very plainly, the prog
res5 of the Liberty party is at a dead stand,
as though pent-up, and destined either to burst
over its present enclosures, or with difficulty
preserve itself from dissolution. The State
OF New York is not the only section of the
country where these indications appear
Look at Massachusetts What ails the Lib
erty party there, that not even the "Great
Eastern Convention" with its eloquent
speeches and its rising tone of sentiment,
could send the Liberty vote ahead! There
must be a cause. Whence the timed, hcsit-
atant, aud half-pensive tone of the Emancipa-
teri Contrasting so unpleaslntly with the
pert and lively paragraphs, buoyant, conf
dent, and hope inspiring which it was wont
10 put forth +! Have the working operatives,
the struggling democracy of New England
found out, yet, that the Liberty party is pledg-
ed to maintain the rights of the white as well
as of the coloreJ poor, and will no sooner
truckle to a Northern aristocrdcy than TO a
Southern? And it is known and road of all
men, that those engaged in elevating the NOR
ais of the Saic, are equally sensitive and ieal-
Gus where the purity Of the Church, is con-
ccrned ! If a negative answer must be Civ
en- to these questions, it needs no spirit from
the vastly deep" to tell us what are the OBJ
stacles to be removed.
Brother Leavilt may tell us, as he docs, in
a recent paragraph, that 1.-the laws Of this
country, and the laws of his Maker, alike
guarantee TO him the right Of worsl!Tping God
according TO the dictates Of his own con-
science, and that these dictates make him
u membcr of the Congregational Church :"
But in this answer to the inquiry, proponnd-
ed to him by a correspondent, whether Lib
erty men can remain members of their pres
ent pro-slavcry churches, and "doany good
with their political efforts The laws of his
Mixer guarantee TO him the right of acting ac-
cording to the dictates Of his conscience in
selecting his ]p0iiiicai as well rs ecclesiasti-
cal associations and parties! But are there
no responsibilities connected with these
rights Or do the laws that guarantee"
them secure the results Of a wise choice for
an unwise one? Do they guarantee" 10
him the power of working moral and politi-
cal impossibililies ! or eIevating the moral
ity of the State above that of the Church ! -
OF sustaining a Liberty-loving political par
ty, true TO its high trust, and commenting it,
s If to the appreciation Of God and of man,
while its members -" conscicntiously " bow

three years, from and after the date Of said

Although this Office was conferred upon

and took an oath, to avoid the obligations of

office; and in doing so, | wish to have il I'M

obligations to obey the requirements of that
oath. 1t is that part of the oath which seeks
to place me under obligations to support the
Constitution Of tie Uniied States, | protest a.

port the Constitution of the United States,
was to swear to assist in robbing men of their
Liberty; if this be true, we may well pause
before we place ourselves under such an OBJ
legation. If Liberty is not an empty name,
but en- the contrary, is that for which men
should sacrifice their Fortunes and their
Lives" then are We recreant to duty in plac-

SLAVERY IN TUNIS.

The British and Foreign Anti Slavery Re-
porter has within the wear announced, with
somewhat of a flourish of trumpets, Me abo-
lltion oil Slavery in i'nnis. How true this
Is will be scCn from the following extract from
the s.ialta Times. w, regret, as the friends
of humanity must everywhere, that the Re-
porter is mistaken; we regret, too, to be fore
ed to the conviction, that that paper has viii
fully made the mistake, or wilfully neglect
ed to correct it. We are not, however, much
surprised at it. The Broad street Committee
whose organ the Reporter is-aro satisfied
with a very small show Of anti-Slavery, if
they are convinced of the abolition of Slave
nv in Tunis by the ordinance of the Bey
whether they are governed by the motives
which the Malta Times charges againstthem,
we know not but we are certain that a COM
mittee composed of such men as the delegates
of the London Yearly Meeting, Messrs. Ira
cy and Forsters, who are now in Indiana,
with the evident purpose of stiiing the anti
slavery movement in this country, are much
less likely to be concerned for abolition In
Tunis, than the success of their own selfish
ends at home.-.A. S. Standard.

The slaves were, to appearance, liberated
in this regency, while, in reality, they were
more oppressed than ever. This inhumaI

BRAZILIAN SLAVES.
A correspondent of the New York Tribune

writing from Rio %Janeiro, says
"The condition of the Slave population
here is much less abject and wretched than |
expected TO find it. Slaves are generally
treated with kindness and humanity. Their
color operates less to their prejudice than
with us. Their freedom in many cases lies
within their reach, and may be attained, as it
often is, by a few years of industry and fru-
gallty. The owner who should attach an ex-
%orbltant value to a slave DESTROYS of purchase
ing his freedom, woulI be severely censured.
When free, he goes to the ballot box, and is
eligible to a seat in the National Legislature.
Nor would any body here 90 into Mysteries
should he marry a woman whose color should
be a shade lighter than his own.
1t Is for us to preach up humanity, freedom
ana equality, and then turn up our blessed
noses if an African takes a seat NJ the same
table on board a steamboat! and even in our
churches he is obliged to look out some oh
scure nook, and dodge along toward Heaven.
IKE a man who has no business travelling on
the marrow way" The misery is that thew
who preach equality the loudest are general
y the last to put it in practice. 1t is one
thing to level downward-it is a very differ
ent thing to level upward. Give me the man
whose tavors are like the rays of the sun--if
they first strike the ~loftiest objects, il is only
that they may glance in the valleys"

preparing for a general march against the

besides a blockade fleet of 5 or 6 vessels of
war. The march, it was thought, might be
a signal for another revolution, and the procla-
lamatlon of another President. The difficulty
with the French Consul General had not been
settled, and ii was surmised that the affairs
Of Hayti might be brought under the dicta-
lion OF France. The people appeared to be
ready tor any measure that would give them

AN EVENING VISIT TO THE WHITE HOUSE
Gentlemen IF you will kindly allow me
part of one of your well-fled columns, will
give your numerous readers lille sketch Of a
casual visit 10 the White House on Friday even
ing last. We were met by Mr. Walker, the Pri-
vate Secretary, q should remark the President
was absent when we entered) With much polite
ness, and received by Mrs. Polk in the kindesl
and, al the same time, most graceful manner
Ii may be said with truth, she is lady OF COM
manding dignity al all times. and her CONVERSE
ton generally the most agreeable character, is
always happily directed. In my judgment, at no
period in our history have we seen The hospitali
lies and ceremonies Of The White House more
handsomely dispensed, or displayed with greater
Republican simplicity, than al The presen, time
If my observation be correct, no invidious or inn
proper distinction seems 10 be made in the circle
ofvisitors. There is no imposing movement or ex-
ira iormalily exhibited when Secretary or some
other high officer of Government presents himself
The quiet and unheralded citizen receives po-
lite and cordial salulation, as we'll as the naughty
millionaire, or some proud Minister Of State
And this is precisely as il should be-a Just and
beautiful commentary, alike upon our noble in
siiutions and The charming social qualities Of The
President and his family.
was struck, mol only with the easy and fasc-
mating manners of Mrs. Polk, but equally with
her patriotic sentiments and feelings. A gallant
Lieutenant, just from The bloody but glorious con-
flicl at Monterey was there also; and, as Mrs P.
gracefully carried back his thoughts 10 the distan,
field of his early fame he caught The inspiration at
once and dwell briefly, for her entertainment, upon
some of The thrilling incidents OF those scenes
In the course Of this animated conversation, TO
which was favored listener The modes, young
officer remarked, in playful manner. that some
thing, q do not now recollect what) was rather
TOO Democratic; TO which Mrs. Polk replied, that
"whaiever sustained The honor and advanced the
interests of The country, whether regarded as De-
mocralic or not, she admired and applauded"
The sentiment was truly noble one.
will conclude, gentlemen, by wishing our Re-
publican Presiden, and his honored household, in
creased happiness and great "engIh If days" and
yourselves eminent success in The glorious cause
Of Democracy. VlRGINIAN.
