Great Excitement.

l have just visited Coolspring Township,
Mercer County, Pa, where the people have
been as much gulled by false teaching as
any other people, in any other place. My
visit being protracted by wet and unfavora-
BILE weather for travelling, | concluded to
make myself as useful as possible, by way
of holding anti-slavery and other meetings.
The first shat was held, was an anti-slavery
meeting, in which three persons participated,
viz John F. Selby, Marmaduke Rambo,
and myself; each one giving. Some general
views on slavery-amoHg hands l believe al
most all the corrupt organizations in the
country received some attention, and the peo-
pie seemed to have enough to talk about af-
ter the close Of the meeting. The next that
was held was a preaching meeting, (and it
was held on the peoples Sabbath at which
time / endeavored to present the UNKNOWN
Coz, unto whom an Altar was erected at an.
cient Athens. presented Him in opposition
TO the six hundred Gods whom the people
worship at the present day. This did by
considering the servants Of The different Gods,
under the character of Representatives-that
what they did according to their profession)
their Gods would do under the same circum-
stances; consequently the Methodist, Pres
byterian, Baptist, UAiversalist, and other
Gods, whom they represent, are slaveholding,
man-s'ealing, woman-whipping, baby-steal-
ing, throat-cutting, neck-breaking, and drunk
ard-making Gods and SO every abomination
is allowed under some Divine sanction but
the UNKNOWN Con who is represented by
in6del come-outers, stands opposed to all
these things, and is therefore the only God
worthy of the attention of any intellectual be-
ing. 5.i
After the close of this meeting, walking
TelegraPhs were numerous-almost every
person had a report TO make-no two of them
seemed to agree, and soon the whole neigh
borhood was in a perfect agitation. Seeing

DEAR FRIENDS -

nA'D
have just returned from the Anniversary
Of the Western Peace Society at Randolph.
OF its doings, as well as that of the conven-
ton into which it was resolved on the second
day, at the request of S. S. Foster, you have
undoubtedly been informed. As Fosters plan
for Disunionists to 20 to the polls and vote
under the Ggis Of the carniverous American
Eagle, is now before the people, and as it is
probable he will continue his efforts to BRING
Disunion abolitionists into his ballot-box plan,
as he said in the Convention he considered
voting one OF the most important instrument
talities for the abolition Of slavery therefore,
as an individual member Of the Western A
S. Society, | protest against its adopting, or
employing agents to prosecute such a scheme
for The abolition of slavery.
My reasons are, LIST. 1t would prove abor.
tive-too humbugery-can't catch old birds
with chaff.
I'd. am not able to discern between yot-
ing at the ballot-box, regulated by men sworn
to support the Constitution, and for a noni-
nee with his name and Office designated on
The vote, as the law directs, and political ac-
ton, 1t must be political action according
to 3. 5. Fosters definition, "governing, or
taking steps to govern" Voting in a repub-
lican government is the highest kind of poli-
ticai action. 1t is taking the reins of 30
vernment.
3rd. To vote for a candidate, previously
pledged not to accept of the Office, is no, in
strict accordance with moral principIe. II
may do for politicians, governed only bv ex.
pediency, hut to those who make abolition a
great religious and moral enterprise, it wopld
be The commencement of a downward course
which would stain our integrity and rob us
Of our moral power. Numbers give no evi.
denee OF our strength. Talk of counting our
strength in the great contest with slavery F,
We have all the enlightened and yirtuous
people on earth; all the hosts of Heaven IN
our side. We have Omnipotence Himselr,
The weakest child in our ranks. pields

corps. Look at Garrison, Douglass, Foster,
Abby, Walker, and a host too numerous 70

A PosER.-At the recent Liberty party
convention at Buffalo, George Bradburn of
Cleveland offered a resolution, declaring in
substance that the convention would nomi-
nate nc candidate who did not avow the epin-
ion that slavery is unconstitutional in this
country.
The sentiment thus expressed is certainly
in conformity with Goodellism and Spooner-
ism, and is the weapon, which above all 9TH
ers, Liberty party at this time delights to
WELD. What objection could there be to
the convention adopting it! A very impor-
tant one it world seem. The ruling dele
gates were determined to nominate John p.
Hale, and as his views of the c~onstitu ton
ality of slavery had not been moulded accor-
ding to Spooner's model, the adoption of
such a resolution would have defeated their
intention. 1t was therefore necessary to lay
the resolution on the table, which was accor-
dinghy done; and John P. Hale is now pre-
scented as the embodiment Of principles he
don't believe in, as the defender ola faith he
has never adopted. ..
