From The Pennsylvania Freeman.
SlavehOlding COwardice and Ruff
tianism.

A few days since, a young man, whose ap-
p~earance and story give assurance of his hon
esty, called upon us at our office. He gave
his name as RoBERT EDMOND, and stated that
he had just been driven by mob violence from
South Carolina, on suspicion Of being an a.
bolitionist. He had been tarred and feather
ed by a gang of respectable" rufians, and
subjected 10 other insults, and then compel
led 10 fly for life from The State, pursued by
his nerciless enemies, who seemed TO repent
their first forbearance, ill they lost track Of
him. He is a modest and retiring man, a
native Of Scotland, and has resided for sever
al years in South Carolina, where for a year
past he has been engaged, in the parish Of
st. Matthews, seventy miles west of Charles
ton. His school was mostly composed of
the children Of planters, among whom he
boarded, spending a few weeks in each fami-
ly of his patrons, and he was uniformly trea-
ted with kindness and hospitality, until he
ventured to express TO them, in private con-
versation, his adherence of the slave system
with its c%ruel,ies and pollutions. He had
dared, in that den of slavery, 10 declare the
system unchristian, and to express the hope
that it would not be extended into any new
territory and for this blasphemy 10 the
Southern Divinity, and high treason to the
" peculiar institution" H. was summaTlly
condemned and punished, and driven from
his home and friends, to find sympathy with
strangers.
What could be more cowardly! 1t tells
again, what a thousand facts have revealed
that within the dark ring Of slavery, no mans
rights and liberty are secure; that c~onstiIu-
tions and laws, church creeds and Christian
precePts, so far as they declare or would de-
fend personal freedom and the rights of con-
science, are as stubble and straw before thai
system like a destroying FIRE it consumes
them all, making its track with ruin over NOR
al, social and political institutions.
Mr.. Edmond's story is, fully confirmed by
the South Carolinian Of August cath, which
publishes a communication from ST. Mat
thews. probably written by one Of the muir
deroas mob which threatened his life. Thit
article, which our friend has placed in gu

anything more cold-biooded and merciless, in

which we ask every Dhe to read, as a rich

we have no time 10 indulge them.
=" About six months ago, a man by the
name of Edmond, who called himself a
Scoichman, came into the lower part Of the
PARISH, as a teacher, and succeeded in getting
up a small school. After some time, how
ever, 1t was discovered that the instruction
OF The rising generation was not his ptinci-
pal object; by unguarded expressions which
escaped him, by his general conduct towards
the negroes OF the neigliborhood, and by his
delivering a course Of sermons, always ex-
pressing a desire TO preach to them alone.

COlOred Convention.

The following are some of the resolutions
adopted by a Convention of coloEea persons,
recently held at Cleveland.
Whereas, in the present position of the
Colored people in the United States of North
America, they, as a class, are known 10 the
country and the intelligent world alone as
menials and domesiics or servants and

Resolved, That we shall forever oppose
every action, emanating from what source it
may, whether civil, political. social or reli-
gious, in any manner d~erogatory TO the uni
versal equality Of man.
Resolved, That whatever is necessary
for the elevation of one class is necessary for
the elevation Of another; the respectable in
dustrial occupations, as mechanical trades,
farming or agriculture, mercantile and pro-
fessional business, wealth and education, be-
ing necessary for the elevation of the whites;
therefore those attainments are necessary for
the elevation Of US.

accumulation of wealth-as the essential
means of elevating us as a class.
Resolved, That the occupation or do.

The American Board of Commissioners

This formidable body held its Annual
Meeting in this city, last week, as we In
formed our readers that it would, and the
character Of its proceedings fully nswered
to the prophecy, or the opinion which we
then expressed concerning them. This great
Representative Body Of the Congregational
Churches of America, has not withdrawn its
former endorsement of the Christian charac-
aer of Slavery (; but, on the contrary, 1t has
renewed it. 1t action when stripped OF the
coat Of many-colored words in which It's
spiritual Fathers have decked it, amounts
simply TO this-,hat the Board does not regard
the act of holding human beings as property,
as essentially sinful, or sufficient cause, in IL
self. for exclusion from the Christian church.
The abuses of the institution, to be sure, II
regards with all proper horror, and would
have discipline exercised towards them;-
but the relation Of master 10 slave, is not on
