WEST HARwIcH, August 90, 1913.
Ma. GARRISON:
DEAR SIR-Being a stranger to you, and
never before having written for publication,
you may perhaps deem some apology neces-
sary for intruding on your time and patience;
but the scenes that l have beheld enacted
this day in East Harwich are a sufficient apo
logy for every individual in the community
that has the least regard for the rights Of
man, the liberty of the press, freedom of
thought and speech, the right OF free discus
sion, unterrihed by mobocracy, or that has
the least ioia of humanity in or about him, to
raise his voice in tones of thunder in condem-
nation Of such an outrage. Being one of
those whose life is on the ocean wave, prin-
%cipally, my means Of information have been
very limited of acquiring a knowledge OF the
anti-slavery cause, and | listened to-day for
the first time to an exposition of its princi-
Piles from the lips of a number of champions
of freedom, among whom were Parker Pills
bury, S. S. Foster, Lucy Stone, and w. w.
Brown ; and for the first time in my life ]
heard truth proclaimed fearlessly and public
ly, regardless of the anathemas of the church.

paid. There | heard the principles of Anti
Slavery fu lily, fairly and honorable discussed,
and there too | saw the principles of North
ern as well as Southern slavery fully and
practically carried out.
Demonstrations of a mob were manifest
quite early in the day, but they did not rally
in sufficient force to m operation till
near the close of the afternoon meeting !; and
then commenced a scene such as was unwil-
ling to believe human beings, wearing the
human form, capable OF perpetrating. until
convinced by ocular demonstration. Cries Of
Haul them OUT Down with them,' Tar
and feather him. Ride him on u rail, pass
out that nigger,' with other choice selections
from their vocabulary, were preliminaries.-
Then came the rush tho speakers were
crowded or dragged from the stand, women
and helpless children rushed ovs; and tYod-

Slavery in Kentucky.

The following plan for the abolition of
slavery in Kentucky appears in the Louis
vile Journal. The author is spoken of as
a gentleman of high character. who has
been a member of Congress, &c. After
speaking Of other changes which the Con-
%vention ought to make in the Constitution,
he says -
"The children born Of slave mothers, on
and after a certain day;-say the 4th of July,
1850 or other suitable period-to be free the
males at twenty-five and the females at twen-
iy-one years of age. The owners Of such
persons to pay neither State nor county tax
on them, but in lieu thereof, to give them a
reasonably good English education, and aE-
ter they are old enough to be useful, pay a
small sum annually to the county court,
which, with the interest accruing thereon,
should be appropriated to removing such lib
Grated slaves beyond the limits Of the Uni
ted States, and providing them the means OF
subsistence in the country to which they go.
Husband and wife in no case should be
forced to separate, but the frs, liberated
should be hired, the proceeds for his or hel
own use until the other should be freed
The children born of mothers thus provided
for. should be free, serving only with the
mother, and going free with her."

Eight times larger than Massachusetts, vet
Massachusetts, with her inhospitable climate
and sterile soil, is FAR in advance Of Virgin
10. One-fourth larger than New York or
Pennsylvania, yet both Of these States are
tar, far before her in the career of prosperi-
ty.
Such is, and ever has been, the %ruinous
effect OF slave labor. In new countries where
the soil is teeming with produc,iveness, and
yields an abundant harvest to the most care.
less or most unseilful cultivation, and where
only our grosser wants are sought 10 be sup
piled, the evil is comparatively unfelt. But
IN all times and in all lands, its presence has
brought on premature decrepitude and decay.
And no where is this more painfully mani.
fest than in the long-settled portions-and it
Is OF these we speak of Virginia and the
Carolinas. We wish that every man in our
State, could see for himself these once pro.
ductlve and thriving States, and compare them
with the populous and prosperous commune
tles oil the old free States, where the hand of
Intelligent labor has redeemed a barren land,
and made 1t TO 'blossom as the rose." We
are sure II they could see and Judge for them
selves the question would be decided in a
day. But as this cannot be done. and il
should be determined to perpetuate the evil,
there are those now living who will see the
same results here-a diminishing population,
an impoverished soil, a general paralysis of
all the means Of progress and prosperity

From The Liberator.
The Mob on Cape Cod.

We subjoin a communication from friend,
describing a most disgraceful scene, which
seems to carry us back to the days of 1885.
We are informed that this letter contains a
very mild and temperate account OF this af-
fair, which we have had described as wan
tonly f%erocious and vindictive. Another ac-
count may be looked for next week. We
had not heard of this outrage until after the
Leader Of this week was in the printers
hands. But what a proof is this Of what we
there say, that "a genuine Abolitionist, or
A~nti-Slavery Meeting will be as sure of cal
ling out the pro-slavery spirit as in 1851
The cure, of which the boosted prevalence of
Free Soil principles in symptomatic, is very
far from being a radical one.-Q.

A SLAVE REscueD.-The New York Tri.
bune contains an interesting account Of John
LYLE a c0lored man, bora In Philadelphia,
who has just arrived FROM Havana, where he
has been unla wiully held as a slave for ele-
ven years. He was shipwrecked on the cost
of Africa, and made his way 10 a slave facto-
~. Thence he took passage in q slave ves-
sci for Cuba, and was ireacherously sold as
a slave. He contived to make his case
known 10 an American gentleman who was
travelling on the island, and stopped al the
plantation where he worked.
This gentleman laid his case before the
Secretary Of State, who promptly instructed
The American Consul, Gen. Cambell, former
ly member Of Congress from South CARROLL
ma, to demand the liberation Of the American
citizen thus unjustly held. Great caution
was necessary in order to identify the cap
tive before suspicion was entertained OF the
object. Both the Secretary Of State and
the Consul appear TO have acted in the most
prudent and creditable manner, and the result
OF their exertions has been the liberation Of
Lyle, and the payment TO him Of $22li,33,
his earnings for the eleven years Of his servi-
tude.
