Anniversary of the American A. S
Society.

We extract from the STANDARD the follow
ing passages in the remarks of two of the
speakers on thar occasion.
After abiding to the interest she felt in
tracing the Law of Progress as written out
in the worlds general history, Lucretia Mott
proceeded tie say -
How is it in the Anti-Slavery cause 1t
is now more than ten years since it was my
privilege-and a great one ! esteemed ito
attend an anniversary of this kind in this city.
| remember the tone of the speeches, how
that only the first principles of ~Anti-Slavery
were brought into view. And, indeed, look
ing back to a period shortly before this,
when a little handful gathered together in the
city of Philadelphia, and sat in convention
and what for! To declare, not merely self
evident truths-to ~relterate the simplest tru-
isms that were ever uttered. Read the de-
c~laration of the Anti. Slavery Convention OF
1888, and see what it was found necessary
then to declare in Convention. The people
were asleep on the subject with some few
exceptions. There have been solitary indi-
~viduals, such as Lundy, and Elias Hicks,
and the Benezetts, the Clarksons, and the
Wilberforces. But the labors in England
for twenty years were simply TO arrest the
progress of the Slave-Trade; and it was the
work of a wOman TO declare that "Immedi-
ate, not Gradual Abolition" was no less The
duty of the master than the right of the slave.
In this Convention in Philadelphia, the great
principles Of human freedom were uttered
that every man had a right to his own body,
and that no man had a right TO e~nslave or
ilnbrute his brother, or 10 hold him for a
moment as his property-to put a fellow
being on the auction-block, and sell him TO
the highest bidder, making the most cruel
separations in families. At that time these
things Were scarcely known; the people
had scarcely considered them. 1t was now
made known TO very many in the Northern
States, that there were more than two mil
lions held in this abject bondage, who were
claimed as property-that men had this ire
sponsible control, this legal right to their
persons. This Convention resolved what il
should do: hrst--eticienily to organize it.
self and then to seek to form other Anli-Sla-
very Societies throughout the country. They
were TO go forth and endeavor to enlist thu
pulpit and the press in behalf OF the suffering
and the dumb. The work it had 10 DO wa

The Crisis.

Tins is the name Of a new Southern Anti
Slavery paper, the first number Of which We
have Just laid aside. It is a weekly paper,
and is published by Arson Berkshire, at
Moundsvllle, Marshall Co., Va, at two dol
lars a year. 1t is d lamp In in a dark place,
and though it may not burn with a perfectly
clear flame, it may give light 10 many who
otherwise would not receive 1t from any
source.
The editor writes like 4 sincere man, deep
ly impressed with the rulnous evils OF Slave
~ aud the necessity OF immediate and active
measures to remove the destroying curse
from the State. HIS selections are also well
chosen to diffuse correct information and Just
feeling on the subject among the people Of
the South and we hope he will find an en-
couraging support from them. In his open
ing address, after frankly avowing Enamel
patton 10 be his great calm, he says that ''the
time has come for action, decisive unfiinch-
ing, uncompromising."--"Th American
