The Louisville Examiner.

-
This paper which succeeded the "Tme
American" of Cassius NJ. Clay, does not, as
most Of our readers are probably aware, &C.
euPy'ihe highest position on the Mount Of
Anti-slavety Reform, though it doubtless
says as much against slavery as would be
tolerated in Louisville, and as much as its
conductors think it their duty TO say. Their
views Of the evil and remedy are not such as
arc held by Disunibnists hut the editors are
able men, and do their share 10 producing
the agitation which is now rocking This ma.
ton. The T" Examiner was admirably con
duciedby its former editor John c. Vaughn)
and those who at present have the control of
it IF. Cosby, John II. Haywood, and Noble
Butler) will undoubtedly do, as well for the
diffusion Of anti-slavery knowledge. I, is a
paper eminen,ly Astounding in valuable slatis.
tics, and any one who wishes to become ac-
quainted with the phase which is assumed,
or rather is being assumed by Kentucky An
ti-slavery, cannot do better than pay So for
the " Examiner" The publisher says:
"This paper has been in existence nearly
a year and a half, and has been slowly ex-
tending its circulation in the slave States. |,
Is the advocate Of emancipation in Kentucky,
and has Kept this one object constantly in
view, seeking by calm reasoning, and by the
evidence of figures and facts, TO show the
people Of Kentucky the many g%rievous losses
they are obliged to bear in consequence Of
slavery. Those connected with the Exami.
ner have not espoused any one Of the many
plans Of emancipation submitted from time tc
time, nor have they urged their own views
in this particular, but have confined their ac.
ton TO efforts intended to arouse the public
mind to reflection on this vitality important
subject, feeling sure that when their fellow
citizens shall have determined to rid them
selves Of slavery, they will find a way-that
a plan Of emancipation, just, humane, and
practicable will be devised and agreed upon,
and that enough wisdom and courage will be
found in this beloved old Commonwealth to
carry it out successfully. Such a plan will,
doubtless, be agreed upon at a meeting of the
friends of the cause, 10 be held at some con-
venient point, shortly after the Presidential
election, and will be advocated by the Exa-
miner with whatever ability it possesses.
"The Examiner does not participate in par
ty politics. 1t calls on the good and pairio-
tic of every party in the State to unite in one
concentrated effort for the redemption of Ken.
tLcky from the thrall Of slavery.
'1he time is at hand in which the effort is
TO be made. The subject Of The Convention
is beginning 10 occupy the minds Of all Ken
tuckians, and it is of the first importance thai
we be well informed on a subject that so vi.
tally concerns us. The conductors of the
Examiner, therefore, call upon the active
friends of Emancipation in kentucky, to aid
them in their efforts to extend its circulation
and trust a hearty response will prove lha
the call is not made in vain"

10 rorfrifT all the evil their constituency
empowered them TO.
This nation has just concluded a war un-
deilaken Tot the sole purpose of slavery pro-
pooandism. Neither the President nor Con-
q,ess had any other power to declare OF ION
,inue such a war, except what was conferred
upon them by the people-the voters under
the u. s. government. The haters OF slave
nv as well as the friends of slavery went to
the ballot-box and said "a We agree that the
Congress Of the URitea States may declare
war whenever it eho5ses, and against whom
IL chooses, either for slavery or against sla-
very and we furlhet agree that the Presi-
dent shall be Authorized to conduct such
war" They accepted the power thus con-
ferred upon them, and spent millions OF mo-
ney and sacrificed the lives Of thousands OF
men 10 renew the strength Of slavery. 1t is
true that many protested against it, and s'rove
10 persuade the National Legislature and the
r Executive from thus using the power they
had given them but the power was in the
hands Of their official agents, whose right to
use it as they chose could not be denied
The responsibility Of the war belongs not
alone with the majority, but the minority are
also involved in the guilt.
Four candidates for the Presidency are
now before the people, and every voter binds
himself to receive the one who has the con-
stitutional majority of votes as his President
--as the President Of the entire people. The
election is a game Of chance and skill COM
bined. The members Of the defeated par
. lies are as much responsible for the cons'itu-
tiohal acts Of the successful candidate as
haeEh they had given their influence to elect
him, for they consented TO play the game on
condition that he should be President in the
event of a certain contingency. The loosers
cannot release themselves from the obliga-
ton to abide by the laws Of the game en- the
ground that luck was against them, or be-
cause their skill failed. They cannot throw
off the responsibility Of the acts of the win
ner-wheiher he be Gen. Cass or Gen. lay
lor-by any declaration they may make, or
any deed they may perform short Of a with
drawal fIom the organization whose form of
government %confers unrighteous powers.
Those whose vision is sufficiently clear TO
see the bearing of a moral principle, who can
perceive the real connection between cause
and effect, would do well 10 remember there
is such a thing, as The Responsibility of a
Minority.

brief sketch Of some of the many virtues
which adorned his useful, though unpreten-

His boyhood was characterized by an I'M
usual love Of literature, combined with the
s~trictest integrity. His obedience to parents,
and his kindness and gen,leness to his broth
ers, sisters and playmates, during the earlier
part Of his life, were fully e~qualled in after
years by a most exemplary regard for the
education and general welfare of the numer-
Gus family, of which he was the Oldest.
Having studied Medicine under a coInpe-
tent preceptor, he attended lectures in the
Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia
He then, in 1914 emigraled from Adams Co.

His devotion to the study Of The profession
Of his choice, and his assiduity and selftsa-
criice in its practice, are worthy Of all
praise.

Free Soil I!

Would that we had free soil, not alone in
New Mexico and CALIFORNIA, but in Ohio
We would travel hundreds of miles to find
an acre of free soil in all the broad domains
of this nation, and when our feet pressed it.,
should feel we were standing on hallowed
ground.
This nation has a fair and goodly heritage,
whose variety Of soil, and climate, and pro-
d~uelions scarcely any other people can boast
Her sails whiten every sea, her flag is known
in every land. Her mines Of precious and
useful metals give an abundant yield' her
beds of coal and granite hills are no mean
sources of wealth, and her inhumetable rivers
are crowded with the riches of her produce
ton. The hoarse murmu Of the northern
lakes tell of her prosperity. The roar of the
Atlantic on her eastern shore; Is responded
to BY the dash of the Pacific on her western
coast. She is a great, a mighty a growing
nation; but with all her manifold ad advantages,
with all her natural and acquired wealth, she
has not even so much as one single acre Of
free soilt
Free soil free soil amid the wilds of Ca
l~afornla, free soil in the wilderness of New
Mexico! Better first make Ohio free SOIL
Better have at least one City Of Refuge with
in her bounds where the painting fugitive may
be safe, not from the Avenger of Blood, hui
from the Enslaver Of Man. Free soil in New
Mexico! free soil in Catalonia are now the
watchwords of a political party. Do its ad'
heren,s mean free soil when they say it, oil
do they only design making it free as Ohio
is free free for the tyrant to come and drag
back his escaping bondman, free for the man
s,ealer to refasten the broken letters upon his
victim! Such is not free soil and we alas
can have no soil within all our borders thai
is truly free, until slavery is abolished or the
Federal Union destroyed.

(E- The introduction Of slaves from AfTi-
ca is attracting attention at Rio J%aneiro, as
will be seen from The following extract of a
letter from a correspondent, under date Of the
Goth July:
1.-THE introduction of slaves into Rio from
the coast of Africa, continues as successful
as ever, Notwithstanding the efforts Of the
English and American squadrons to suppress
the slave trade. The Brazilian Steamer Pro-
videncia, commanded by SpaniaTd, has late
ly brought into this port from the coast, a full
cargo of the unfortunate Africans, 1900 in
number. 1t is reported that she originally
took in 1900, but the horrors Of their pent-up
condition were greatly augmented by constant
ly recurring deaths among them, resulting in
the loss Of not less than 300, it is said, before
arriving here.
"There is much and loud-expressed dis
satisfaction. among many residents, especially
foreigners, at the continuation Of this inhu'
man traffic by Brazilians, in spite of preten'
ded efforts, in concert with others, on the part
Of the government, for its suppression. The
general belief is, that if there is not, ere long,
some energetic action on the part Of this GO
vernment, correspondent with its stipulalions
for preventing the introduction of slaves from
Africa, serious consequences will follow
Those opposed to it will not look on silently
at its brutal and murderous continuation. Al
this very time, this very steamer, | am told,
is ready for another of its inhuman trips, be-
ing loaded with ample coal for going and re-
turning.

The PoLlTicAL BATTLE GRouND.-Whig-
gerry seems determined to carry Ohio either
by hook or by crook. i, is pouring its stump
speakers into the State from the South and
from the East the former probably design
ed 10 represent Taylor's slaveholding p%rinci-
pies, the latter TO stand sponsors for his Will

November, political speakers and political

ism, and this, TOO, without money and With
out price. We are sorry for it, for we don't
like to be reminded of the ugly things that
were sent as a plague upon ancient Egypt,
but we suppose it will have TO be borne
There is, however, consolation in the fact
that their efforts will be ~"love's labor lost"
for that Taylor will not get Ohio is just as
certain as that two and two make four; and
this the Wings will soon have TO admit
But then if they choose to waste their breath
and money in trying their luck that way,
they must cen do it. We suspect they had
a foreshadowing or presentiment Of their de-
feat when they issued a hand-bill, calling a
Taylor meeting at Columbus, with the fol.
lowing heading;-

Go it double-jointed
Time enough to damn boys,
When we're disappointed"

GRAHAM's November No., is embellished
with two steel engravings--" Edith Maui

fancy portrait, and illustrates a story by Ar
thur. For our own part we would rather
look on the likeness of a real b~on05fde per-
son, or on the personihcation of a feeling or
uassion, than a mere fancy sketch. "SuP-
piicatiou" is exquisite. The expression of
countenance and the attitude both silently
tell Of the spirit Of prayer; and the moonlIt
hour, the placid lake and the dark rocks all
harmonic admirably with them. The list
of contributors for this No., embraces some
of the most popular magazine writer's.

Outrageous, if True.

We learn that a few months ago, a colored
man, who had received some education,
commenced teaching a school for free coIyred
children, near Georgetown, SUSSEX, county,
Delaware, when a number of white rowdies
went to the schOolmaster, and threatened
him that they would iake him to the public
- whipping post" il he did not cease teach
ing his school. The man demonstrated
stating that it was a lawful calling, and he
was not willing to abandon it; however, in
a few days, these said rowdies went to the
school,house, took. the teacher out of the
school, carried him 10 the public whipping
post at Georgetown, and numerically la
cerated the poor fellows back, and only let
him escape upon a promise TO teach no more.
A negro servant of Judge Wootlon, hap
pened TO say that they would not have
served him so,' when the mob went into the
Judges yard, took him out to the said
= whipping post and dashed him, also un-
mercifully. The Judge, hearing of the mat
ter, stepped TO his yard gate to eXpostulaie
with the wretched mob, when he was threa-
tened 10 be served in like manner /; and the
Judge even thought it prudent to send an
apology TO the mob, for even speaking in
behalf of his servant.
If this be true, and we have il from mosl
respectable authority, are such mobocrats re,
publicans! Are they fit 10 enjoy freedom
Would not such conduct disgrace the darl
ages? Does the Delaware Slavery deman,
such conduct for freedom But be it re
membeFed that two thirds of all the slaves il
Delaware, (2300 in ALL are held in SUISSE:
county. We hope never TO have such a dis
graceful affIir again to record. We almos
feel ashamed that Sussex belongs to Della
ware, and we further learn that only three
of the Grand Jury, at the following term o
the Court, had independence enough 10 g
for finding a bill against these ~violators o
the law, order and humanity, and they now
stand prosecuted and threatened with the
Lynch Laws. Oh Lord deliver US from
