THE LIBERTY CONVENTION.

The great Liberty Party Convention, which
was to have been the greatest gathering of
the people that ever was witnessed on this
part of the foots;oo!, has been held
Handbills were distributed, advertisements
were inserted in the papers, calling upon all
to attend. SAMUEL LEWIS, candidate for
Governor, was to be present, and also seve-
raj other eminent speakers /; and every effort
was made to ensure a large attendance. The
hour came, and 10! there were scarce two
score assembled. Disappointment sat brood
ing on the countenances of the prominent
Liberty men, and consequently none felt
very energetic. They however settled their
proliminaries, and Mr.. Lewis gave them an
address. He stated at the outset that, what
is wrong in morals, is wrong in politics, and
that he would not do politically, what is mo-
rally wrong. Verify, his standard of morals

TO ABOLITTONISTS.


am informed that a misapprehension ex-
lists as to the place where the Anniversary
meeting is to be held, many supposing it to
be in the village of New Garden. The place
fixed upon is at New Garden meeting house,
% miles northeast of the above village, and
6 miles south OF Salem. Ample provision
will be made for all who may attend none
need stay away on account Of it being held
in the country. 1t is expected that each
days meeting will as early in the
morning as the friends can conveniently as
semble, and adjourn early enough to give am
pie time for those in attendance to return to
their places of abode. As our female friends
are making arrangements for a reireshment
table adjacent to the meeting, it will only be
necessary to have a short recess at noon to
enable those who feel disposed to satisfy the
cravings of hunger. Remember that the
money expended at this table will be applied
to advancing the time Of the slaves redenp-
ton. Remember too, that friends Pillsbury,
Fosters, and perhaps Burleigh from the East,
besides a host of choice spirits of our own
Western soil, will be there to give life and
energy to the meeting, which cannot fail to
make it interesting. Then Come, Come one,
Come all. Let us show to the world that
Notwithstanding Virginia has kidnapped our
citizens, and Kentucky, aided by slavery's
watch dogs of our own State, has ruthlessly
torn Phinney from the bosom Of his family,
and that too from our very capital, and in
carcerated him in her dungeon; and our
blessed Union has declared war against, and
is now actively engaged in slaughtering the
Mexicans to satisfy the demands Of slavery
notwithstanding all this, we will not be de-
tered from our purpose. If we had a father,
mother, brother, sister, or one of our w
children enduring all the pangs and suffer-
ings of a slave under the merciless lash of a
southern taskmaster, could we be induced to
remain at home! Hare wo not brothers and
sisters in bondage? Then come up by hun
dreds-yea, by thousands and renew our re-
solve, "No UNION WITH SHAREHOLDERS"

FRIENDS EDIToRs Mot being a candidate
Clay or ]. X. Polk, one year ago last fall, to
express my opinion and make my position
known with reference to several points which
l believe to be of greater importance than the
annexing of ten thousand slave holding pro-
vinces like Texas, to our already bloody
Interpretations involving the happiness of
millions of my race, now and forever. |
hope therefore you will give the same a con-
s~picuous place in your paper; and further
hope that the members Of Wesleyan Metho-
dist Churches throughout the connection, and
Liberty Psrty voters every where, and Disu-
~nionists the country over, will impartially
read*: and if my views are not correct, con-
vince me of my errors and l foIsako them at

light on the subject; and further, that those
Of the Wesleyan Church, who can't con-
scientiously vote under the Constitution of the
U. S., may nevertheless fellowship all their
brethren, who from the ~clearest conviction
and light they have on the subject, do vote,
believing that voting is the most e%ifectual
way that they can do battle against slavery,
without in the least degree eliminating them
selves before God, or in the judgment Of
those who look rightly into the subject. And
wherefore? Because there does not appear
TO be any thing selfish in the act of voting /;
but on the contrary, there appears to be a

The reason why I call especially upon
the Wesleyan Methodists, Liberty Party
men and Disunionists 10 lead, is the fact that

pathize with the other. And ! hope that
each of the above named parties will feel in
~terested in setting me right, if | am wrong.

manner expose my errors, and show me the
right way for | will do any thing that will
in the least degree go against the hellish sys-

And there's no chain on Genius restless wing
No more by iron Perjury confind
Shall the germ wther in the inventive mindj
But now Instructions genial dew shall fall,
And her bright sun fall equally on all.

And he who earns the conqueror's renown;
And he is great whose salutary laws
Restrain the bad, and right the suffers cause
And they are great who gave to Science birth
Who cimb'd the heavens, and meted out the

Measure the elements, and weigh'd the air,
And laid the mysteries of Nature barej
And they are great who bend the inventive

To improve the Arts and benefit mnnkind;-

Pursues what most may benefit the WHOLE;
Who, nobly great himself and truly wise,
Pours light and knowledge on all willing eyes
And sends Instruction with her magic wand
To hcdge the wings of Genius thro' the land,
Till she arise and range with extacy,
Through all Times mysteries, to Eternity
