that mere lip prayer was a mockery.a solemn

our land, was all in answer 10 the PRAYER of

ana daily saw my prayer being answered.
Ail other prayers, save living ones, were no
better, Of no more use than a sounding brass
or tinkling cymbal.' When men pray for
light and don't put themselves in the way
TO get light, when men pray for the overthrow
of slavery, and do nothing but oppose the
friends of the slave, their prayer is Ep-prayer,
the hypocrite's prayer.
Tins old man was formerly a prominent
member Of the Baptist Church, at a time when
slavery existed in this State. The Church
then, as now, was full of practical atheists,
saying in their deeds, Who is God that we
should obey HIM! 1t was fall of practical
infdeS, as it is now who practically deny
the brotherhood of mankind. Priests then
defended slavery, as they do now, 'divininr

ty, anti-Christ, that drove the old gentleman
out of the Church, and into his present frame
Of mind.

Rev. Alexander Campbell in Scotland.

We learn from a number of the (Glasgow)
Christian News, Of September ID, received
by the Britannia, that our faithful and eff
cient coadiutors, the Anti-Slavery societies
Of Scotland, have given to the Rev. AleXan-
der Campbell, the leader and founder of the
sect known by his name in this country, such
a reception, as, we trust, may always meet
pro-slavery clergymen who present them
selves as Christian ministers to the people of
Great Britain and Ireland. 1--WE have for a
long time" says the News, ''had serious
doubts about the genuineness of the religion
of slave-owners, and we are now fully per-
suaded that the churches of America are the
grand bulwarks of Slavery in that country"
We shall rejoice with exceeding Joy when
this shall become the prevailing sentiment of
the friends Of the slave on the other side of
the Atlantic. The CoXes and Deweys of the
American Churches, however much they may
affect to despise the rebukes Of the Abolition
lists at home, where to be pro-slavery is TO be
respectable, are exceedingly sensitive as to
the reputation which they may have abroad.
In America, they oppose every form of Anti
Slavery agitation, because, till quite recent
ly, the popular will has demanded that the
subject should not be meddled with. But in
Great Britain, their hearts are full of sympa-
thy for the slaves. There is nothing they so
much long for there as the redemption of
their countrymen from bondage. They do
not so much oppose the Abolitionists as keep
aloof from them, because they doubt the wis
dom of our measures. They are not only rea-
dy to adopt any plan for a successful and
! speedy termination of the felon SYSTEM"
but it is a chief object of their prayers and
thoughts, to discover such an one. We are
! glad to be assured by the reception which is
now given TO almost every pro-slavery divine
who crosses the Atlantic and presents him
self before the Christians of Great Britain
and Ireland, that their professions are under
stood, and accepted for what they are worth.
1t is time that these lights in the American
Church Were taught 10 respect the Anti-Sla-
very movement in this country and if its
intrinsic worth as a great Christian move
ment, does not command their reyerence, let
the people Of Great Britain show them by
the estimation which they put upon their
characters that no man has a right to call him
self Christian who is forgetful of the claims
of a cause, which it is emphatically the mis-
sion of our age and country to conduct to a
successful termination. And wo be to this
people if they turn aside from the work
which the Lord has given them to do. No
man can hold himself excused upon any plea
Of the recklessness, the want OF wisdom, or
the ianaticism of others. If the Abolition
lists have been wrong IN everything else, they

disgraces our country-a country, whose
voice Is loud In the proclaHatioR Of liberty,
While her hands are busily engaged in the
works Of despotism. In a cause like this,
however cool one may be in DANGER, however
darlug IN exploits, or however reckless of con-
sequences, l can see no reason which woalI
entltle such an one to any public honor, which
would not apply with equal force to the case

equal evidence of bravery. | know il may
be said that Captain Lincoln belonged to III.

the orders Of his superior officers; but | am
not aware that the orders commanding him
to the Mexican territory were repugnant To-
his ordinations, or that he made any effort 10
be excused from the duties assigned him on
that station, and in this view he should be
placed on a par with the volunteer corps Of
The army, whose infamy, ! hope, may be as
lasting as the cause they have espoused.-
Had Captain Lincoln fallen in a good cause,
IN the defence of his county, no one would
have been more ready than myself to do him
honor; but in the invasion of another coun-
try, he loses all my sympathy, and all my re-
spect. Such are some of my feelings in re-
gard 10 the subject matter of your letter, and

In all honesty, and with all due respect to
those who may differ from me in opinion, |

claim for myself, OF thinking and expressing
their thoughts in accordance with their con-
viciions of duty. | must, therefore, decline
taking any part in this matter, and leave it in
your hands, or in the hands of those who NAV
feel an interest IN the concern.

From the GLaSgow Christian Nerg.
Mr.. Campben and Slavery.

Feeling deeply interested in the cause Of
the slave, we are not a little delighted TO call
the attention Of our readers to the decided
stand taken by the citizens of Edinburgh in
the case of Mr.. Campbell from Virginia. L.
S. An abridged report of the various public
proceedings In this case, will be found in an
other part of our columns. 1t was well that
this somewhat celebrated American preacher
should commence to %enlighten Scotland by
attempting first to instruct the citizens of its
metropolis-well that, previous TO any con-
slderation of his doctrine, they should ascer-
tain what effect that doctrine produced on his
own heart and life. 1t was well, too, that
the very first point determined, (seeing he is
from Virginia. should he whether he stood
implicated in the horrid sin of American OPP
preston. 1t was also well that the Secreta-
ry Of the Scottish Antt-Slavery Society should
be the first to put him to the lest on this point,
that Mr.. Campbell should have the opportu-
nifty Of defending (if possi5le) his conduct as
the apologist of slaveholding. and one who
declares his refusal ever TO sit at meat riih
4 cOOred man. All this was well but it is
better than all, that there should have been
excited such a spirit of adherence of the in
tolerable crime of slavery, that as It's defend
er, he should find it impossible to hold up
his head in Edinburgh. The Anli-Slavery
Society, and more especially their secretary,
merit the warmest gratitude of their fellow
citizens for the stand they have taken. We
confidently trust that, if not now, at least ere
long, American preachers will understand
that before they can be listened to in Scotland
as preachers of righteousness they must
wash their hands clean from the accursed
crime of man-steaIing. Never let that day
come on when the free hearts Of Christian
Scotchmen shall fail to burn with irrepressi-
BILE Indignation when their ears are saluted
by the voice of him who breaches the gospel
in one sermon, and declares in the next, that
man may rightfulIy hold property in man.

Cold Love for the Slave.

Mr.. \. Campbell, the friend Of the slave
holder, finds it difficult work to right himself
with the British public, so contradictory are
his sentiments. We would counsel Mr.. G.
to set about an entire 'reformatiOn' on the
subject. The following document has just
been sent us for insertion, which our readers
will peruse with painful interest:
To the Editor Of the Edinburgh Ueehiy
Journal:
'SIR-Having seen in your paper of the
25th inst, the following statements in a let
ter signed, A. Campbell, Bethany College,
Virginia, viz. Il never approved nor defend
ed in word or writing any system Of slavery,
Grecian, Roman, Anglican or American. /
have always regarded and represented them
as sanctioned by law, and displayed in their
statute books, as impolitic, immoral, and ir.
religious Il have never said that | would
not eat the Lords Supper, nor a common
meal, with an African slave, on either politi-
cal, moral or religious grounds. These are
falsehoods, circulate them who may. | have
never defended, as most falsely affirmed in an
Anti-Slavery Meeting in Edinburgh, the ne
gro-pcw system. Indeed, l never saw il
practised 10 my knowledge. Our African
brethren, in all churches known TO me, cal
the Lords Supper at the same Lords table
with their masters. They may or may moi
in all cases sit in the same pews, hut, if they
do not, it is for other reasons than mere color
or mere relation And whereas we, the un,
designed, consider that these statements arc
not in accordance with fact, or, at all events.
are likely to mislead the public, we deem il
incumbent upon us, for the sake of our breth.
rem in slavery, and in vindication of our OWE
characters 1--WE have previously stated whar
we now PUBLISH to lay before the public
the following simple statement of facts:
At an interview which we had with Mr..
Campbell, on the morning of the llth inst.
we learned from that gentleman
LIST. That he is in religious fellowship with
SHAREHOLDERS, some of whom are members Of
his own church, and that in admitting such
into communion, it is not inquired whether
they keep their slaves by force, or by the free
will or consent of the slaves themselves.
end. That though he believed slaveholding
TO be impolitic, he did not consider it unlaw-
full, nor immoral, nor unscriptural he affirm
ed that it was an appointment Of Heaven, that
it is recognized in the Scriptures OF tho Old
and New Testament; that it is not in oppo-
sition to the spirit and precepts Of Christian
ity, and that Jesus Christ and his Apostles
sanctioned the practice OF man holding pro-
perry IL man, which opinions and assertions

he endoayored to defend and support, by ar.
gulng at some length from the Bible.
3rd. That in his church the blacks and
whites do not sit promiscuously together
that the former sit by themselves in the raj
leTy, and that in some OF the churches in his
connection, a curtain or screen, is pat up to
separate them from the white portion of the
congregation.
18th. That he could not sit at meat with a
bh1cE Pers0n, because of his smell, which he
aliedged was so offensive that he could tell
in the dark whether one Of them was in the
room. He added, however, that il his back
was TO him, so that he could not see him, he
might take his meat, although a biack was
near.
For the reasons already assigned, we hope
you will give the above a place in your pa.

An Algerine Satire.

A correspondent of the Liberator, in an ac-
count of a great Barnstable Co. Anti Slavery
Convection, says -
Among the speakers was John Kenrick, of
Orleans. He denounced slavery as a curse,
which he would be CAD to see the country
rid of; bat how to get rid of it was the ques.
ton. We were all alike implicated in the
evil. The South Were no more TO blame than
the North. Ga proposition TO which we fully
agree.) And what were the poor slavehold-
ers to do! Were we prepared 10 witness
such scenes of bloodshed as attended the
abolition of slavery in st. Domingo? He
considered slavery a foul blot upon our coun-
try, of which he had been made especially
ashamed. During the war of this nation
with 1IipolI, and while the frigate Philadel-
phIa was lying before that city, he was de-
talned there for some time and visiting the
theatre one night, he found that the subject
for the evenings entertainment to these Ma
hometan ireebooters, was no other than a car
feature of American HJeriv. On The rising
of the curtain, the Bashaw rode upon the
stage on a richly caparisoned horse, surround
ed with his attendants, and was soon follow
ed by an American Sea Captain, who was
represented TO be himself-accompanied by
an African slave. From whence art thou =
odIu NHe bdSHdW' ADDRESSING the American.
i am from America, the glorious land of re-
publican liberty and democratic equality re-
piled the Captain. 'And whence art thou 3
inquired the Bashaw, turning to the slave
| am from Africa, that afflicted country
which Christian Americans have robbed Of
her children replied the slave. Il was sto-
len from my native land, and sold to this
Christian, and am now his %slave.' At this
stage of the performance, said Mr.. Kenrick,
| could hardly refrain from rushing upon the
stage and chastising those who were thus
ridiculing my country and her Institutions.
But ! remembered that was alone against a
multitude and that the whole point, and the
only point in the performance-that which
CALLED me to the quick-was its truth. In
such contempt do even the semi-barbarians
of Northern Africa hold The people of this
country, solely in consequence of their being
a. nation of shareholders. And the scorn and
contempt of these semi-barbarians-as we are
pleased to call them-is now receiving addi-
iional power from the fact that slavery is fast
disappearing from northern Africa; Tunis
and Egypt have already done the work of
abolition.
