The AbOlitiOniSm of Old Times.

1t is common for those who oppose 6 anti
slavery agitation to refer to the abolition of
slavery in the New-England States as pro-
wing that agitation and severe language are
not necessary to accomplish the object. Those
who are acquainted with the facts, however,
know that there is Il remarkable coincidence
between the means used by the friends of
freedom in New-England and those used by
anti-slavery men now. Early in the last cen
fury, the subject begant to be agitated in New
England. In 1901 the representatives were
desired to use their influence to put an end to
negro slavery. In ITO, Judge Sewall pub
lished a tract against slavery, under the title
of 1.-The Selling of Joseph" A few years
later he ssessayed to prevent Negroes and In
dams being rated with horses and cattle, but
could not succeed" The Revolutionary War
gave rise to some regular ''fanatics" on this
Subject. One of these men said, "Shall we,
my brethren and fathers, can we lift up our
faces with confidence before God, in solemn
PRAYER, that he would remove the yoke of
bondage from us, and set us free from the
bondage that lays on us, while we keep a ten
fold heavier yoke on the neck of our brethren,
the negroes! But the following paragraph,
from an appeal of Benjamin Coleman 10 his
slaveholding minister, is the strongest thing
we have seen. IL uOeS HOt HllCC liz HAT

man-stealing! Have you not bought divers

which you have baptized and received as a
member of the church! Pray, sir, is this
teaching the way of righteousness? But this
wicked practice Of yours is not all that |

From the LiberatOr.
TO the Governor of South Carolina.

May it please your Excellency: =
The plan which | am about to propose for
augmenting the industrial resources, and
thus increasing the prosperity Of our beloved
country, is addressed to you as the represent
tative of a state which, having been among
the foremost, by word and deed, in support
ing the institutions of that country, is entitl-
ed to the credit of being eminently AMER-
CAN.
Our brethren of the North, Il deem it
highly judicious to keep up the use of this
complimentary phrase,) though illiberal and
~fanatical on some points wherein their instl-
tutions differ from our own, have yet thor
oughly demonstrated a point which Is not
perfectly clear to all minds before seeing the
facts and figures which they have furnished,
namely, that the prosperity of a country Will
be in direct proportion to the amount Of active
industry employed in it.. 1t is wise 10 learn
Gas your Excellency is aware that a great
Latin poet has remarked) even from our
brethren-and it would be objectionable for
us to neglect the lesson given to us in that
particular by that robust and eminently use
full class of people, the inhabitants OF the
Northern states. Industry is not only theil
taste, but their policy let us make it ours,
and it may be hoped that the strange fancy
for emigration to the West, which has led
many of our citizens to leave their estates
and withdraw their servants 10 other fields
Of labor, may be checked.
Without farther preamble, | respectfully
suggest to your EXcellency the eNpediency
of proposing to the Legislature the passag,
Of the following laws =
BE it enacted, that from and after the pas
sage of this act, all Jews, resident or travel
ing in this state, shall be taken and held t
he the property Of the Commonwealth /; thei
property, cal and personal, shall be consid
cred as be .onging to the stale, and they them
| selves shall be sold as slaves for life, by tn
Sherins Of their respective towns. at publ
auction, TO the highest bidder, in lots to sui
purchasers, and without reserve, as soon a
the needtul arrangements can be made.
The advantages Of such a law would b
manifold.

A correspondent of the N. Y. Tribune
writes from London:

A correspondent of the N. Y. Tribune
writes from London:
"A word more. Since | have been in this
county, no one thing has annoyed Inc more,
or filled me with more modification, than the
fact that | have had to admit every day, that
however badly people were treated here, how
ever much a pampered nobility trampled upon
the untitled poor, however overworked in coal
mines and cotton-lactories We're the poor ope-
ratives-that from all this wickedness, there
was to be found an Opermdtch in my native
"Republic," in the system of Chattel Slave
ry. Any allusion to this has filled me with
shame, and almost compelled me to silence.
For, although two wrongs can never make
one right, and the nation Oh the individual
who could screen its own sins under cover of
another's, is in a very despicable state of
mind still, he who would expose the ini-
quities of a foreign country can do it at best
with but a feeble hand, when tenfold greater
exist in his own"

THE LEAGUE AND LEVER OF BROTHERHOOD.
There are thousands on both sides of the
Atlantic, who have formed a vast home league
with all the attributes of God, nature and hui
manity, TO restore the millions of human be-
ings who have been expatriated from the great
brotherhood of mankind. The light of the
Gospel has revealed an Archimedian point of
rest, and they have got a lever under the
SLAvE-a lever whose longer arm reaches in
to Heaven, and is now descending beneath
the weight of the Eternal Throne and all the
angels of light. Oh, they will raise him -
they will raise him without asking the aid
or consent of human Legislation.

The Stare is at last remembered in a
Thanksgiving proclamation! Gov. Briggs,
of Massachusetts, in appointing the 26th
proximo as a day of thanksgiving and praise,
requests the people to pray that God f" will
give efficiency to the means which shall, in
His own good time, exhibit to the world a
practical illustration of that prominent and
beautiful truth put forth in our Declaration of
independence, that all men are created equal
and present this great confederacy of States
withouta bondman in its limits" Why don't
Gov. Briggs also pray that God "will in his
own good lime" elect him Governor, and not
call upon tho people to do it!-Indiana Free

The Rulers.

There is no hope for the American slave.
there is no remedy for the American freeman.
but REVELATION! ltis worse than folly
TO expect that Slavery can be abolished under
the existing Constitution and Government,
or that the rights of the nominally free will
be respected under it, when they come in coli
lision with slavery. Why does slavery ex-
list at this momentl Because it is profitable
in its pecuniary returns The Shareholders
are not fools. They have eyes to see, and
sense to understand, and they know that the
South would be richer, as well as happier, if
slavery were abolished. Slavery exists,
mainly, because il puts The entire polificuipoIc
er Of his great nation into the hands Of a small
ohgerchy, Tie tile Of Which is dericcd from
Ownership in human flesh. Two hundred and
fifty thousand slave-owners, or, deducting the
women, minors and absentecs, about one hun
dred thousand voting men, have the absolute
hundred thousand souls. They make the
laws, dictate the policy, appoint the great Of
icers Of State, make war and peace, provide
for themselves and their sons and all in viz
tue of their slaveownership. Is it reasonable
to suppose that they will throw away the
charm that invests them with all this power
Is there an instance in history of an oligarchy
limiting It's own powers, or laying down its
authority \ single dcspot may do this, for
he is subject TO the influences which may act
upon a single mind but an oligarchy NEV-
Err! Nothing but compulsion ever cxtotted
rights for the many from the few.

Oar hope and trust is that the men Who
now act with the Wbig party, in the hope OF
doing something for the abolition of slavery,
will see how false is their position, and how
empty are their hopes. They will perceive
that the Constitution is pru-slavery, only pro-
slavery, and that continually. That the I'm
ion is but a chain, binding the slave at ths
South, and the self at the North, equally to
the chariot-wheels Of slavery. That there is
no practicable amendment of the Constitution,
and no action under it, which can release
those who sustain it from the guilt of sustain
ing slavery. 1t is only to men who receive
these truths, and, receiving, act upon them,
that we look for any substantial anti-slavery
work. 1t is only these that the STAKEHOLDER
fears. Dissolve the Union, and the chief mo-
tive for maintaining slavery is removed
Dissolve the Union and the main protection
of slavery is W ithdrawn. Withdraw the prop
of Northern bayonets, and the inverted pyra-
mid will soon obey the laws of moral CRAWL
t%ation, and come laundering to the ground.
We Jcherc that an entire separation of the
free States from the slave States is essential
TO the overthrow of slavery. We kno,o that
it is essential to free the Notwithstanding
States from their completely with the slave
holders. IS mon, as citizens, as patriots,
we know of but one rule of life sufficient TO
secure personal integrity and the public safe
ty, and that is, "NO UNION WITH
SHAREHOLDERS Pc.
