Slavery in Maryland.

DEAR FRIENDS -
have foy the last four weeks been a yisi-
tor in the State of Maryland. During this
time have taken some pains to ascertain the
amount of anti-slavery feeling existing here.
| have visited Washington, Alexandria,
Georgetown and Baltimore--have conversed
with intelligent persons in those places, and
lind there is much anti-slavery feeling /; but
alas. for The poor slave those who think
free thoughts, dare not speak" them. No
they shudder at the thought Of giving utter
ance to the heaven-inspired sentiment, "all
men are entitled to liberty" ! find the opin-
ion is generally entertained, that any effort
on the part of the friends of humanity for the
immediate abolition of slavery, will tend to
draw the chains tighter; and many of nv
dear Quaker friends Il am sorry to say) use
their influence to smother down this a~nti-sla.
very feeling. The fact is, there are too few
George Foxes and Elias Hickses about here.
But the most g%rievous departure from the
true light that / have observed, is the bitter
prejudice generally entertained against the
Abolitionists. They seem to imagine that
we are fanatics, who desire to secure The
slaves liberty at the expense of his masters
life. Now, as every eflecthas its cause, we
conclude there must be som cause for this
prejudice +; and whatever has caused il, has
retarded the work Of emancipation. Some
rejecting, trne-hearted persons are Of opinion
that Aboliiionists are in fault they say the
slaves have been encouraged to take up arms
against their masters, by individuals who pro-
fessed to be Abolitionists. This was alarm
ing in the highest degree, and was set down
as abolition doctrine; and as anii-slavery pub
l%Icatlons very seldom go beyond the nomi-
nally free States, it is literally impossible
for the mass of the people 10 form a correct
idea Of the spirit Of the anti-slavery move.

attending a meeting Of the people who had
peaceably assembled 10 state their grievances
and demand redress, O'Connell warned the
people against any resort TO violence. Strong,
as well as beautiful, was the proof they gave
on this occasion, Of their love for him they
INCREASINGLY saw their leader cast into pris-
on, raising not a hand for his deliverance.-
The result of this mistaken policy of The Bri-
tish government was a triumph for Ireland,
for her leader was declared innocent, and her
people had given no cause for offence. Years
since, O'Connell declared, That no revolution
eOer Bected waS Worth a singIe drop Of human
blood, and this has been the principle upon
which he has conducted the Repeal agitation
the principle by which he has won SO much
for Ireland.
As a speaker, Daniel O'Connell had but
few equals. He is said TO have been the
most eloquent and impressive orator of his
day. To his Intellectual strength, he added
a wit keen as the blade of an Eastern scime-
tar, a humor peculiarly Irish, and a musical
voice whose very tones charmed the listener
into silence and breathed a spell which but
few could resist, and whose potency no words
are adequate to describe.
We cannot close this brief and imperfect
sketch of a great man without adding, that
his name was enrolled among the millions
who received the pledge of total abstinence
from that other benefactor of Ireland-Father
Matthew.
O'Connell is dead.
After a life of seventy-two years, the great
er part of which has been spent in the SER
vice Of his country, he has gone to his rest
full Of years and of honors. He has left the
people whom he loved so much, at a time
when Famine and Pesiilt nee walk with them
at MONDAY, when they need, perhaps more
than ever, his aid and his counsel. Dark,
indeed, was the hour when this great distress
upon them and the sorrow and mourn
ing which before filled many a cabin, was
deepened when it was told that Ire
benefactor was no mere. He has been
misrepresented and maligned in his life, and
will be after death but the world will vet
10 him full justice. His ashes repose beneath
he green sod of his native land, his trake
will be heard from Skibbereen to Carndo-
lagh, from Dublin on the East, to Mayo on
he West. And though no other monument
han the works he has done shall tell that he
lived and died, yet Gratitude shall engrave
lis name upon the hearts of the sons and
of his own loved Erin.

The Glorious Fourth"

We suppose that at this time the Ameri-
can people, the great embodiment Of Anglo
Saxon principles and iul6llers of Anglo-Saxon
destiny, are making preparations to do VIVA,
they and their forefathers have done annually
for the last seventy years-celebrate the 4th
of July. Our exchange papers are beginning
TO manifest the premonitory symptoms of
this periodical attack of patriotism, and are
talking about "the twenty millions of free
men in our land" (slares, Of course, included)
-"Our glorious heritage,''-"The advent
of Liberty in this, our Western World,"-
freedoms natal day." and other matters
which have no more real existence than have
Truth and Justice an abiding place in our
midst.
The conduct of the American people is the
embodiment of a great Lie; and if they were
not as Substituted as they are devoid of
honesty, they would cease flom their high
sounding professions Of love TO liberty which
deceives no one but themselves, il, indeed,
they are so destitute of common sense as TO
believe the falsehood they have famed
We can hear, with some degree of compla-
cency, of Italian Banditti saying their Ave
Marys and Pater NosteIs, but The wicked
absurdity of the American people in pretend
ing that they love Liberty while they are
fighting for Slavery, is one of the most dis
gusting exhibitions of national hypocrisy
the world ever saw, and is of itself almost
sufficient to conclusively demonstrate the
doctrine of total dePravity.
Where is this nation
The soldiers of the American army-the
nations agents and willing tools-have de-
generated from the comparatively honorable
calling Of men.killers, into mere butchers of
Mexicans and v~iolaiors of female virtue, to
say nothing about their more petty crimes,
which many an inmate of our penitentiaries
would have too much self-respect to stoop
10. Our neighbors, the Mexicans, dared to
defend their rights, dared to fight for their
country, their homes, and their religion
The U. S. Government, bent on their de-
struction, and boiling over with false patri-
olism, gathered up the scum of the comInu-
nifty, which this national agitation had sent
TO the top, and poured the vile stuff upon the
hills and plains Of Mexico. The people of
this land denounced the Mexicans as igno-
rant, half-civilized Papists, and told of the
splendid church decorations and valuable
church property, which would be Legitimate
articles of plumber for the patriot crusaders
of North America. They thrust a Bible into
each soldiers knapsack, and then called them
Missionaries! and doubtless they were mis-
sionaries, able and jealous missionaries, do
ing the DEVILS work with their salt-petre and
birthstone, and building up the kingdom of
his Satanic Majesty under the direction of
GENERAL TAYLOR, Chief Missionary And
this, be il remembered, is all done that sla-

Liberty Party Politics and Morals.

FRIENDS EDIToRs:-
recently attended Liberty party meet
ing in Parkman, and will show your readers
how those old friends of mine get on in their
scramble for the "6ve loaves and two fshes.'
Stephen Baldwin, of Nelson, Portage coun-
ty, who has been travelling in the South dur
ing the past winter, was present, and gave a
narration Of his travels what he saw and
heard, and the impressions he received on
looking this hydra-headed fend in the face.
First, Mr.. Baldwin avows the belief that
there are a great many deeply pious souls
among the Shareholders. When asked what
evidence he got of their piety, he replied, that
In conversation with them they evinced lore
for God and his word, and seemed to feel

Pious people sell for about 5000 each ; and if
a female with blue eyes and light hair, for
$500 to some ''gentleman Of property and
Standing" or sleek priest and fat" to grace
his Bible-built seraglio. All We could pump
from the man was that they "talked religion"
When asked if highway robbery was a less
crime than slavery, he replied yes. He was
then asked if a people could incorporate the
crime of highway robbery into their social,
political and religious institutions, and follow
1t systematically, making all else subseryi-
ent to its interests, and yet by talking pi-
Gus" be entitled to the name of Christian ?
The usual resort was had to abstract right
and wrong, and polygamy being a greater
crime than slavery, and as David was a po-
lygamist and a pious man, therefore slave
holders must be considered Christians
