ners, and The NJ. L. Chur ch universally, will
notice that my connection with said church
has come 10 an end. ] withdraw for many
reasons, OF which ] will give a few. | believe
the NJ. T.. Church to be anti-chrislii IN from
the fact that it declares it has no wish or in
tention to interfere with the system Of Amer
lean Slavery. Shareholders lead its classes,
kneel at its communion table, and occupy its
pulpits. For my own part ! have thought
seriously upon it, and have come to the con-
c%lusion that | cannot live a christian in the
NJ. f. Church, or any other, that gives its
influence directly TO support Slavery. One
sixth Of the people OF the nation are deprived
Of their natural and inalienable rights, Of civ
il and religious liberty and yet that church
declares it has no wish or intention TO inter-
fere with a S system that separates wife and
husband, and robs thou sands of mothers OF
their darling babes, and sells them into inter-
minable bondage. ] cannot remain in the
NJ. Il. Church and discharge my duty to-
ward the oppressed, and down-trodden slaves,
many Of whom are church members.
have not thought much upon the subject
of slavery, till of late. have been examin'
ing the church, it's rules and requirements
and ! am convinced that going to meeting
on the Sabbath, and attending class meeting
: and making long prayers, does not constitute
christian, but doing the will Of our Fathe
which is in Heaven.
o The language of the General Conference
in 1886, was that they had no wish or inten
10 ton TO interfere with the civil and p%olitica
e. relation existing between master and slave
y Therefore, J conclude they are not willing I
rs obey the command Of Jehovah ''of whatsc
he ever ye would that men should DO unto YOU
'e' do ye even so to them, for this is the law an
ne the prophets"
lat Now, in conclusion, let me say to those {
ne my acquaintance who remain in the churcl
come out. and give your testimony in favor
God and Humanity, and not strengthen ii

ION men, of which about 10000 belong to the J

in part the present ecclesiastical position

DEAR FRIrNp:-
We arrived in this so called City Of Bro
therly Love during the grand carnival week
Of the Orthodo OK Quakers. To the members
of that sect, their annual gathering Of this
year has been an important meeting. AL
though Pence, Temperance, Anti-Slavery and
other Moral Reform questions are not of suf-
icient importance TO claim from them more
than occasionally a passing notice, they are
keenly alive TO the doc,rinal points involved
in the discussion Of Gurneyism and Wilbur
ism. So entirely were they engrossed last
week with discussing this matter, that they
took no action whatever in regard 10 the three
millions of their enslaved counlrymen, but
Priest and Levite like, passed by OH the 9TH
err side. They are eager 10 condemn those
whose speculative faith is not precisely the
right shade, who do not come up 10 the full
measure Of their creditor deny it as they
may, they hare a creed-but those who sus-
tain a political party in its pro-slavery and
other God-defying measures, who uphold a

authority, a government that was formed at
the expense of the liberty of millions, and is
sustained at the same sacrifice, a government
that buys run by the cargo, and deals it out
TO its soldiers by the small, have done moth
ing worthy of c%ensure, but are retained and
regarded as worthy members Of society.
In addition TO the Quaker Yearly Meeting,
there were two other events las, week Of great
interest to the people of Philadelphia; the
one an illumination in honor Of the triumph
of the American arms in Mexico; the oiheI
an exhibition Of the triumph of the power Of
r government as manifested in a murder upor
, the gallows. The Wings were so terribly

Tie Western Anti-S!avery Fair.

Last week we alluded to a short trip we had
made through several counties on the Re-
serve, and spoke Of the preparations making
for the Western Anii-Slavery Fair. Before
this, we suppose, the friends of the cause
throughout Geauga have organized, and are
laboring in every part Of the county. In one
neighbothood in the county where the aboli-
t%ionists are far from being numerous, the few
there are laboring with a zeal highly credit
able TO them. It being a country place, they
were working needle-work for the villages,
and would contribute other productions
They were making fifty yards of flannel, a
considerable quantity of linnen thread, some
knitting work. Each dairy would contribute
a cheese, and a cooper would furnish the
boxes needed for the same. Some contrib
ute butter, which will be exchanged for ma
pie sugar, and in this way the value Of these
contributions will be- swelled to a large a.
mount.
In many other neighborhoods the friends
are actively engaged, and we hope their ex-
ample will be followed by all others. The
farmers will contribute Of their productions D.;
the tanners, the harness-makers the timers,
the shoe-makers, the blacksmiths, the cabi-
net-makers, the h~aiters, and various other ar
tizans will contribute such articles as they
manufacture. Who will withhold his or her
& contrihntion1 Is.

OF The Edinburgh Ladies' Emancipation So
~ciety-passed al a meeting held on the 4M
Of February, ls47.
In watching with deep interest the pro-
press of the abolition cause in America, our
sympathies are from time TO time called forth
on behalf Of those who suffer persecution for
their labors of love towards their brethren in
bonds ;-such a case has now come before
our notice in the trying circumstances of Cal
vim Fairbanks, under sentence of Is years
Imprisonment in the prison house Of Ken
lucky, for aiding the escape from bondage Of
three slaves, husband, wife and child.)-
We sympathize deeply with this sufferer in
the cause Of humanity, and with his hereaved
parents but while we mourn that the spring.
Time of his life should be spent within the
gloomy precincts Of a prison, we earnestly
desire that neither suffering or oppression
, may ever induce him 10 prove false to the
dictates of his heart and to the cause Of his
{ brethren and sisters in still deeper bondage
than his own, and in so doing forfeit that
''peace Of mind which passeth understand
ing" which may be the joyful portion o
even the tenant OF a prison, whose hopes arr
fixed beyond this world and its awards
whose ''praise is not Of men hut Of God"-
and could we penetrate within his prlsoI
walls, we would remind him of the promis
'Be thou faithful until death, and | will Civ
thee a crown Of fife"
We also feel compelled afresh to %rsiterat
our ahhotrence of the system which produce
such fruits Of the laws by which it is sus
tanned, and Of the arguments which at,emp
to vlndicsIe and uphold it.

The ''MOrning Star"

The first number of the "Morning STAR"
a weekly paper commenced in Baltimore, de-
signed we suppose to supply the place Of the
Saturday Visiter, has just come to hand, and
from the hasty examination we were able to
give, appears 10 be in some degree, at least,
worthy of that beautiful and significant name,
but a nameless feeling of regret OF disap-
pointment accompanied the conviction that
its claim to that title was too abstract and
myslical-not defined with sufficient clear
ness. In these times there is no neutral
ground on the subject Of Siarcry for a man to
stand upon, to say nothing of a philan,hro-
pist or christian; and a newspaper protested
ly devoted TO the interests Of humanity, that
overlooks (from any cause) the claims Of the
siaue, is, to say the least, " behind the age"
if this be the age when human rights are un-
derstood, and human sympathies are warm
ing into more perfect life, and finding their
right direction.
Who, more than the slave, needs all oil
which that name is a oxen flight, hope,
deliverance. True, that for them a " North
Star" has arisen, but let all stars guide them
to freedom.

Mr.. Stree.er's Ani-Slayery.
TRizSps EprroRs:-

FRIENDS EDIToRs;-
On nv arrival at Austinbureh,l found that
Mr.. Strce,er, the Congregational Minister mad
-eG,ssd ,be use Of his house to the Anti
Slavery friends, assigning as a reason, that
7 held different views to him self on some The
illogical subjects. Mr.. Stree,cr processes
much Anti Slavery, but has shown that it is
profession only. 1wro,e the following letter
10 a member of his church, which will fully
explain the "Rev." gcntleman's position. ]
an sorry that euch a change for the worse
should have taken place. II seems almost
impossible for a man to retain his integrity in
any righteous cause, while he consents to re-
main in fellowship with the legalizers and
abettors Of slavery. When Stephen s. Fos-
ter was at Austinbdrgh, Mr.. s. stated in his
W pulpit, prior to the introduction Of friend
Foster, that although they differed in some
Of their religious viexs, he dare not refuse
them a hearinc--he did not consider that q
disqualification to plead the slaves cause
After hearing our friends Stephen and wife
he said with emphasis, - If that is not God,
truth ] don't know WHIT is" But no,O tht
least possible deviation from the speculation
Of religion, is warrant sufficient, in his esii
nation, to exclude q person from the Anti
Slavery platform. II such is the amount Q
the gentlrman's Anti Slavcry, | am glad it il
known.

OF We have received a communication
from D. b. Davis, correcting an error in his
communication of last week, and also con-
tanning some other remarks. The error we
cheerfully correct. In the second line instead
of ~ as a manufacturer &C., read ~ am a
manufacturer" &c. The article as publish
ed makes him admit that he is a manufactu-
Ter of ''paten," medicines, whereas he in
tended to deny this. The mistake was ours.
We think b. B. D. will agree with US
that we do him no injustice by declining to
publish his communication, as no reply was
made to his article of last week, except a
word or two correcting what appeared to con-
vey a wrong impression, and as the whole sub
ject is one foreign to the purposes and OBJ
jects of the Bugle. Our W opinion is.
that the editorial article of 49," which gave
rise TO the discussion, had better not have
appeared in a paper like the Bugle. But al
ter publishing it, we thought justice to b.
B. ID. required that he should be allowed to
explain. He has had that privilege, and we
think will agree that we are right in declln-
ing further discussion Of the subject.
Another communication on the same sub
iect has also been handed us, which We de.
clined publishing for tho reasons above Civ.
