FROM BRITISH WEST INDIES. We have files of
the Times, published at livingston, Jamaica, to the
oath ut. A new project of appointing the
clergy to the magistracy, seems to occupy con-
siderable attention among the people Of the CO.
lony The system is looked upon generally in
very favorable manner. The various small pa
rishes In the vicinity of Kingston, are annoyed
by frequent robberies, and the inhabitants feel
ing their lives insecure, have called upon the au-
thorities for the reorganization Of polce-the
present one being useless. In Manchester, the
prospects are represented as deplorabe, the low
prices of coffee being inadequate to meet the
cost of production, and very large fields having
been thrown up The weather had been very
dry, but lately few fine showers have fallen.

They were lately slaves Of Mr.. Carter II.

"This gentleman died about four years
since, and by his will provided that his slaves
should be set free, 10 90 where they pleased.
But not to turn them of penniless, after work
ing for him all their lives, he farther provided
that, If they chose, they might remain on the
estate as laborers until they had earned the
sum equal to fifty dollars apiece, over and
above the cost of their maintenance. This
they decided 10 DO.
"Aiter working for nearly four years on
the estate, they learn from its managers that
their earnings for that time, average about
Sl4.S0 each! The rest has been swallowed
up in charges of maintenance, and commits

by disinteresIed authority, were not worth

Alexander Campbell's arrival there. The in

Kirkcaldy, August IS, 1917.

We have no heart to give the sickening
details of the horrid butchery. The papers
are filled with them, and their editors, with
scarcely an exception, are eNulting, demon
like, over the desolated homes aud cOrse-
sirown plains of Inflated Mexico. Even the
Cincinnati Herald, the Liberty party Cincin-
natl Herald, in the Telegraphic Dispatches
reported for that paper, triumphantly proclaims
in staring capitals, that ".3Her tjU0 hoHrS IF
bloody conflict, OUR GALLANT TROOPS
SWEPT EVERY THING BEFORE
THEM, and mainly at the point Of the bayo-
net."-.lnH-Slarery BuSls.
Is it possible that the writer of The above is
not aware, that we do not write our Tele-
graphic Dispatches, that we are not at all re-
sponsible for any sentiments or expressions
they contain, that we never g. them, until
they are printed and published in our paper 7!
Gin. Herald.
We were not quito so verdant as to sup
pose the editor of the Herald 1croie his own
Telegraphic Dispatches; but that he is not
responsible for what his paid or unpaid as
~sistants write and he publishes, is certainly
something that was not dreamed Of in our
philosophy. We suppose, however, he Of
the Herald thinks otherwise, else, when his
attention is called to the Objectionable senti-
ments or form Of expression, he would have
disavowed them, unless indeed, he is salts
fled TO have them SO.
The Herald has a Reporting editor, who,
if we remember Alright, puffs "nigger con-
ceIts," commends theatrical exhibitions,
speaks we'll Of %rafles, &C., &c. We suppose
the editor does not hold himself responsible
for any of this, and would reply to a parent
who should complain of the Herald bringing
what he considered such abominable senti-
ments into the midst of his family, you
must not blame us for them, /" we never see
them until they are printed and published in
our paper" OF one thing we feel pretty
well satisfied although the Herald, in its
Telegraphic Dispatches, may. announce with
flaming capitals the wholesale butchery of
our Mexican brethren, you will not find there
any laudation Of Henry Clay, or recommen-
dation to Liberty party to sustain him " this
once as the best man for the Presidency
Responsible or not responsible, he will take
care not to circulate. such sentiments, or if
by any possibility he should inadvertently
do it, his paper of the next day would con-
tain a Protost-a strong disclaimer.

"These people, finding ii would be very
long al this rate, before they earned fifty dol
lars apiece, determined to stay there no long
er. The managers tried every means to dis
suadc them FROM coming, telling them they
would be sold for slaves at the North. But
they determined to risk this, and entered their
passage to Boston, as above. The Captain,

Notices, similar to the above, have appear
ed in several Of the city papers the past week,
and numerous applications have been made
for the services of these individuals, each one
Of them a living witness to the power OF con-
science, or the sting Of remorse, in the bosom
Of their master. Happy are they in this
late and long withheld iustice-happy beyond
their fellows! Yet, comparatively favored
as their lot is, among slaves, it is sad to look
upon them, upon the old man, or the little
child. and see the work which slavery has
done upon body and mind. We trust they
are to see some good and happy days on earth,
and that the free soil, which they chose as a
refuge and home, will not be made bitter to
them by the contempt or neglect of those, in
whom superior advantages and more favored
circumstances ought to awaken far other feel
ings.
We would add that the statement in the
Atlas, that their master left a legacy for their
support, is incorrect. No such legacy was
left 10 them. There was one female slave,
to whom and her five children, a handsome
legacy was lett, together with their freedom.
These, we understand, have removed into

Mr.. A. CAMPBELL, and his colleague,
Mr.. J. HENSHALL, from Virginia, l.. S.,
are at present occurring throughout Scotland
on Christian Union and, as the people of
this country ought to be very cautious in en-
tering into Christian Union with persons
whose general principles aIe unknown to
them, they are hereby warned against hold
ing Christian fellowship with these gentle
men, until they have ascertaiued from them
their views upon the all-inportant question Of
SLAVERY!
Mr.. AMPBELL asserts that Slavery,
considered in itself, is not sinful is not OPP
posed to the principles and spirit Of Chris
tianity-and that the Savior and MS Apostles
sanctioned the practice Of man holding pro-
perty in nan; and he admits that he is in re-
ligious fellowship with slaveholders-that
the Churches with which he is connected in
America receive some of these lNHUMAN
TGRANTS into communiOn-and further,
that in these Churches the Black and White
members do not SIT togethcr-that, in fact,
the NEGRO PEW system is rigidiy adher-

our last accounts he was able to sit up some,
and his friends thought he would probably
be well enough to leave for home the latter
part Of this week.
