SoUTH American AFFA1Rs.-It ap-
pears that the interference Of England in
the affairs Of South Ameucan Republics
is very offensive at home as well as in
this country. Lord John Russell, the lea
der Of the wing party Of England. lately
commented very severely IN parliament on
the interference, and demanded the reasons
for u. We do not sec, however, that Mr..
Peel made any explanation. Lord John
is also opposed 10 the warlike preparations
IN which the Government has been en-
gagged. - Tfck Sentinel

Partake Of the holy emblems. oh! how hell

thinks in that sparkling cup the images OF
devils must have danced in hellish glee, as
he raised it to his polluted lips. But for
bear, and leave my readers TO draw their own
conclusions.
cannot close without adding one word to
the mothers and daughters of the north, who
are surrounded not only by the comforts but
the ~luxuries Of life-whose homes and chill
dren are their own, and from whom no unhal-
lowed hand may snatch them.
Christian Mothers, when you gather your
little ones around you, and call them yours-
when you teach them the lessons of purity
and love, which none so well as yourselves
can teach-hen think Of the ,crefched Stare
mother. Her child is not hers she is robbed
Of all the endearments of domestic life-in
Ignorance and darkness-she tolls, she suf-
fers, she dies-with none to pity, none to aid.
Will God hold you ~guillless if you do not
lift up your voices in behalf of those, your
crushed and injured sisters.
Daughters of the north, whose Aonor and
safety are carefully guarded by faithful and
aflectionate brothers-rcmcmbcr The degraded
STARE daughter, who is subject to every insult
and outrage which any pale-faced libertine
may choose to innict, and whose brother must
be made the unwilling witness of hi" ruin.
Can you hold your peace in view ofsuch out
| rage, and be guiltless?
Will it avail anything in the great day Of
account, in the ears of Jehovah, for you to
come forward and say, "Ah! public senti-
ment was such that ! dared not open my
mouth ;" Christ has said, " unless we love
our neighbors as ourselves, we are none Of
his"
Would you, Christian Mothers, see your
babe torn from your bosom by the ruthless
hand of the slave driver, and not lift your
voice for aid? Would you, Christian daugh-
ten, sec your sister placed upon the auction
block and sold for a domestic SeragHo, and
not raise your voice in her behalf! If you
have not the heart Of a fend, there can be
but one answer. Then if You love the slave
mother and sister at the south as you love
yourselves, you must act accordingly , a cor
rupt public sentiment to the contrary not
wiIhstanding.

ness, and one McCrce hath already found an
a~nodyne for the NJ. +. Church Of this place,
by stoutly arguing that the church is not pro-
slavery, and that no member can be ex-
PEELED from it till it is proved that he is a
stakeholder in heart. o, consistency /! The
Presbyterians are not all pleased some Of
them are quite sick; it being clearly shown
that they are guilty of all the above named
crimes. The Disciples were not all pleased
as well as they would like to have been, and
why? Because it was shown that their lead
er is the worst man in the whole country ;
as a professor of religion, his influence is
greater than that Of any other man. i mean
Alexander Campbell.
l might mention how quite a number of
truth, but shall close this part of my commu-
n~ication by stating how the Wesleyans stood
the fire. They were a little disturbed and
most of them acknowledged they were some
what guilty by inviting pro-slavery persons
to INT with them, and by voting under
the Constitution; but, though they are thus
guilty, the speakers allowed they were hon-
est in part, and would walk in the light, and
that all they (the speakers) had to do with
them was to present the truth and give them
time to reform.
The next thing that startled the people was
the dissolving of the Union. Hands of,
hands off, was the cry. And though it was
clearly shown that the North's share of the
Union is tar and feathers, and eggs, and i'm
%prisonment and Death, if they speak in be-
half Of the poor bleeding slave, yea for acts
Of mercy and benevolence, northern men are
seized, dragged from their homes, from their
wives, mothers and children, and northern
women are made widows /; shame! and north
ern children orphans, to glut the rage of
southern demons; though these things were
clearly shown, yet the cry was, and is " don't
dissolve the Union o, give us Union, though
the South has murdered our men, and wild
owed our women, and meets us with the con-
vincing argument of tar and feathers, pistol
and bowie knife, yet let US have blessed Uni
on. And though the black baby of the South
has sucked eight hundred millions of dollars
from the breasts of the North, still the cry is,
give us Union, sweet Union. But to con-
clude. After all the whining for the Union,
the lectures resulted in making about twenty
Disunionists, in selling quite a number of
books, and in getting a number of subscrib-
ers for the Bugle and other Anti Slavery pa
pers.

FRIENDS EDITORS -

fRlENDS EDITORS =
| wish to communicate a
few facts for publication, that the friends Of
universal freedom may be encouraged to press
forward, welding the mighty sword of truth,
which is destined to break every yoke, and
10 sever every band, that the oppressed may
go free.
On Thursday evening the 23rd ult., our
friends S. S. Foster and his wife commenc-
ed a series of lectures in this place, (West
Middleton, Washington county, Pennsylva-
nla,) which resulted in great good, as | be-
lleye. Having attended the first, and every
succeeding appointment, numbering ten in
ALL think am prepared to give a fair state
ment as to the effects produced.
But before | make any further statements,
with reference to the meetings, | wish to say
a few words about the people of this place.
They are intelligent as a general thing, and
many of them are abolitionists of the new
SCHOOL, mean political Abolitionists. But
alas! the majority of them are awfully pro-
slavery in their church relations, they being
Unionists, Disciples, Presbyterians, Seed
ers, Episcopal Methodists and Wesleyan
Methodists, all Of whom are giving strength
to the bands of slavery, IN their several de-
grees according to their strength and influence.
Bnt honor to truth it will cut its way
through the finty shell of education, and
more Leviathdn like scales of prejudice to
the hearts and consciences Of the people
So 1t was here, while our friends Foster pre-
scented the truth we all felt its force and
power, acknowledging thereto Guilty!
GUILTY !! GUILTY.! some in a greater
and some in a less degree. 1t is true, when
the speakers were proving (Which they did
to a demonstration) that the priests of this
country are liars, thieves, adulterers, man
s%'ea'ers, pirates and murderers, many of the
hearers were seen to squirm and writhe like
serPeDts, on a bed of embers; indeed some
oil the members of the churches of this re-
gIon were so shocked that they have not yet
Their hearts are full of anguish,
and their actions declare, " hast thou found
me- U mine enemy" Yea, light and homes
ty' their most inveterate enemies, have found
them out and are exposing their deeds of
darkness to the gaze of an unsuspeciing com.
nunity, which causes them much to fear that
crGG will suffer loss.
The Episcopal Methodists are wonderfully
'oset with the doctrines taught, and well
hey may be, for they were made out the most
church in the c~ountry-the most d.
OF all the associations OF our nation.
SUI the priesthood are most wise in wicked.

South, where homes have been invaded and
firesides made d~esolate, where the husband

from the child and where the waters If the

at a large and stately mansion, where we in
tended to spend the Sabbath. Mr.. A., the

with all that hospitality by which the South

Perhaps it may not be entirely amiss here TO
make a remark by way of explanation. be-
iIeve that the argument so often used by Nor
therners, to prove that Shareholders are re-
spectacle men, viz, that they are very benevo-
lent and generous in their dispositions, is
strictly true; but to their shame be it said
that this henevolence, this generosity, extends
only to a certain class of individuals. Should
a person there, who moves in the higher cir
Giles Of life, act the part of the good Samati-
tan, by administering to the wants of the down
trodden slave, by binding up his broken heart,
and pouring the oil of consolation irto the
deep gashed wounds of bleeding humanity,

DEMOCRACY AND CHRISTIANITY m AFa,c.
by the last advices from the French colo
ny in Algiers where $4,000 men are reouirsd
to protect $1,000 settlers, it appears that Alb
del kader, the chief of the MusseIman forces
is strongly spiced with american Democ racv
and Christianity. He manifests a warm de.
sire to support that institution which Govern
or McDufie declares to be the cornerstone
Of RePublicanism /; and which Bishop He'd.
ding contends is based upon the golden rule
OF Christianity. In a proclamation he has
issued he thus speaks of the Commander Of

MANUFACTURE OF BONE BUT
TONS

We had an opportunity the other day Of
looking into the Button Mill of Messrs kilIey
& Spring nj Brighton, and Of examining the
process BY which they manufacture very su
perior kind of hone buton-much superior,
we are told TO those which are imported from
England. They manufacture some dozen
different szes-the aggregate quantity being
about 5000 gross year. Their buttons, we
believe. have high repuaiionin the market
and in:respect to polish, particularly, they GER
tainly bear a very favorable comparison with
any we have ever seen ,wheather OF foreign or
domestic manufacture,
The raw material for the manufacture Of
these buttons is furnished by the numerous
and extensive butcheries in Brighton. The
Leo bones of cattle are those which are used
in The manufacture; and about $50, 600 ofthese
bones are annually converted into buttons at
this establishment. After being boiled out,
they are transferred 10 the button mill, where
they are first sawed into convenient lengths,
and then sofiened by steam; after which they
are sawed lengthwise into slabs oil the desir-
ed thickness. From these slabs the buttons
are cut by drills, running by steam, one side
being cut first and afterwards the other
Next, the four holes of the button are made.
which is done by an operation oil four distinct
drills Then follow the different processes oil
smoothing, bleaching, coloring, and packing.
Girls are employed in several ofthe depart
ments.
In this manufacture there is no waste Of
material. Such part of the bones as are not
actually converted into buttons, are used Tor
manure, a striking instance ofthe efficacy
OF such manure was pointed out 10 us IN
turnip field near by. Even the bone dust
which falls from the saws and latees, is care
fully preserved and sold 10 farmers as lux
uriOus article orlodder for their cattle.-Bos-
