Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1847-09-17

o. Several persons from Virginia we
learn are now in this city in pursuit Of fngi-
tive slaves. We believe they are from The
neighborhood of Winchester. Slave proper
~ must be rather insecure. By the way,
there should be some new and practical leg
%tslation in relation TO the capture OF slaves.
The late melancholy affair at Carlisle, the
difficulties at liolidaysburgh, and the dis
turbances which have frequently occurred
here, are strong arguments Tor a new mode
of MISUNDERSTANDING Gazette.

New Books.

We have on hand number of new works,
some Of which we designed noticing ere this.
Among them are
The Life, 7FGreh and opinions Of Berja-
min Lundy, including his journeys to Texas
and Mexico; with a sketch of cotemporary
events, and a notice of the revolution in Hay
ii. 1t is a handsomely bound volume Of ZIG
pages, is embellished with a portrait, and
contains a map of Texas, California and Mex
leo. Price 80 cents.
Narratire IF Yin. ". Bro,on. a Fugiiire
Slave, written by himself, and comprising
ITO pages; together with a well executed
likeness of the author. This volume is writ
ten in a plain, simple style, without any at
tempt to make it seem what it is not. The
incidents related are interesting and well told,
and are invaluable, especially coming as they
do from one who has himself been grinding
in the Southern prison house. We wish the
three millions now in chains could each and
all scatter their narratives throughout the
land, so that the people might better know
the character of the curse they are hugging
to their bosoms.
Price Of Browns Narrative 80 cents bound
in muslin, and % cents in paper.
The .Ant- Slarery .aiphaJei. This little
work is one which every child learning its
A b C's ought to have. 1t teaches truths
far more important than those which are gem
orally found in such books. We never thought
it a matter of very great moment 10 teach a
child that
"A was an Archer, and shot at a frog"
Or that
"B was a butcher, and kept a great dog"
But this little book contains something that
every child should learn. Take the follow
Ing as a specimen
"a is an Abolitionist-
A man who wants 10 free
The wretched slave-and give to all
An equal liberty.
"B is a Brother with a skin
Of somewhat darker hue,
But in our Heavenly Fathers sight,
He is as dear as you.
&C is the Cotton field, to which
This injured brothers. driven,
Where, as the white mans STARE he tolls
From early morn till even.
sd is the Driver, cold and stern,
Who follows, whip in hand,
To pLnish those who dare to rest
Or disobey command"
There, we will venture to say that these
four verses embody more important, practical
every-day-needed truths in relation to slavery
than the American Church dares to teach.
Those who wish to have the alphabet can
procure it for l2i cents.
PAiHips ReUieO Of Spooner. Price 49,
cents. This has been noticed before, and
should have an extensive circulation.
Portraits Of Garrison and IF Lucretia Not.
A few on hand-those who wish them had
better apply soon.
BwhigA'S Death Penalty. The best work
against the Gallows yet written. Price 25
cents.
Christian Nom Resistance, by Adm Ballou.
Price 37I and SO cents.

RUNAWAY SLAvEs.-We find the follow

Register of the Goth ult:
A few days since several Kentuckians, who
were seaching for their runaway slaves, found
that one Of them was in the employ of E. p.
Judson, ESQ.,, of Bristol. They accordingly
obtained access to his house very early in
the morning, took possession of the negro
and handcuffed him. The noise awakened

be done, however, writs were served upon
them for breaking into the house and for as
sault with intent 10 kill. The upshot Of the
matter was that through some ~informality the
negro was released, and departed for some
other region, while the chivalrous Kentueki-
and were bound over 10 court in the sum Of
$500 each, bail for which they obtained only

THE SCHOOL COMMISSIONER.

The New London Advocate copies our article assigning the reasons why the whigs of Li,chfeld had long desired and often urged the removal of the present School Commissioned. and comments up on it at considerable length. The first reaScn the editor considers of little weight and utterly repudiates the doCtrine of " rotation" We think we could set him right on that point, were we so disposed; but a importe. He proceeds
 The other reasons offered by the Litch> field paper, are, however, of diferen char acier, and if they are well grounded in fact, the legislature ought not to hesitate in acts ing on them. There certainly is DO wisdom in keeping a locofoco in and good whig cut of an office in which that incumbent has acted as MT B. is charged with having done. It would be carrying party magna~ nimity too far, and Mr. B. ought by all means to be removed. Not, however, for the third reason enumerated in the list, for we can see nothing particularly reprehen> sve ill that. That gentleman has as good light to be a locofoco as we have to be whigs, and as good right to be the candi- date of his party for the office O. Governor, as any other man-but fine has prostituted his station to any such purposes as are charged upon him, we would walk him out of it the first time that our own party ass csndantly gave us the power 10 do so. We trust the legislature will, act in that behslt as kec0islls .t'u .der tie cigcumstanceS. We hope the majority wilsin this and all other cases. study the interests of the party they represents, so az they can do SO consistently with the still higher obltga tions they are under 10 lhe interests and the character of the whole state-and no farther.

SINGULAR DISCOVERY.

In the southwestern part of Franklin county, Mississippi, a curious 'ubterranean chamber has been discovered by some per> sons while exploring the banks of small stream. It is about TO feet long and 50 feet wide, and of beautiful mason work equal to any of modern times. The land above it is cultivated, but thirty years ago trees of three feet in diameter liourshed luxari . ,an,ly. IL is evidently of remote antiquity .-the hands that formed it and the race are unkown, and have long since passed away from earth. The Indians in the ncighbor> hood knew nothing of it's existence and had mo tradition of the same. There is also a canal connected with it and long subter> ranean passage, which have not yet been explored.
