The Meetings in Salem.

On Thursday Of last week Joshua R. Cid
dings held a Free Soil meeting in this place.
His speech abounded in interesting political
facts. and 10 the Tsylorites and Castles was
unanswerable. He put forth no extraotdina-
ry claims for the Free Soil party he spoke
of it as a nom extension party only, said it
occupied precisely the same gtound-so far
as slavery extension was concerned-as did
Henry Clay and the Wing party in 1874
We are inclined to suspect he rather took
pleasure in thus reminding the former mem
bers of Liberty party, that in 1913 they stand
upon the anne ground, that in 1914 they so
bitterly denounced and so strehuously OPP
posed the Wing party and its Embodiment
for then occupying. His exposure of the
articles of the Cass and Taylor politicians
in the North, was well done, much better
than his subsequent attempt to whitewash
the character of Martin Van Buren,. A New
Lisbon lawyer, who came to the defence Of
the blood hound candidate, afforded conside-
rable amusement to that part Of the audience
who could appreciate total humiliation.
The appeal which Giddings made 10 the
people was based mainly upon The fact, that
in the extension Of slavery into New Mexico
and California, every STAKEHOLDER there with
one hundred slaves, would possess as much
political power as si&ty-one of the voters be-
fore him. "Will YOU" he asked, "wilN
you by voting for Cass or Taylor, consent t
this degradaliOnl" 1t would indeed be
degradation, a voluntary, self.imposed degra
dalton; but if the speaker forgot it, some o
his auditors did not, that every voter undo
the Constitution consents to be thus dis
graceJ, not, it may be by the Shareholders c
New Mexico or California, but by those {
Virginia and Kentucky, and every olhe
slave State, all Of which undoubtedly have
right to impose the disgrace by virtue of III
compromises of the Constitution, comprC
misses which Van Buren, regards as sacre'
and is solemnly pledg ed to maintain. Ma,
more tho very principle, the extension
which to the newly-acquired territory ii
Free Sellers regard as so disgracefbl, is I'll
basis OF the Constitution, and is embodied
the Representative clause, without which III;
instrument would be a l~ifeless form incapa
BILE of either good or harm. Some Of hi
auditors remembered these things, and cam
to the conclusion that if it is wrong 10 vote f

o. The following article on voting is a
very sensible ONE though Of course we do
not agree with the writer as TO the ddty of
supporting the Free Soil, OF any other ticket
under the present pTo.slavery Constitution.
If voters would but consider the responsible
ties they assume-consider them with a de-
sire to act in accordance with right and truth,
the sinful compromise which now binds to.
sether the American Union, would soon be
annulled.

should have talked as if we were in a hustle,

A New WoRK.-We would call the atten-
tention of our readers to the following ng.ice
from The " LiberatoT."
The Young AbOIiliOniStS.

1.-The Young Abolitionists, or Converse
tons on Slavery" is the title of a neat vo-
lume of 1870 pages, from the pen of Mrs. ].
Elizabeth Jones, Of the Ohio Bugle. Its
object is to present facts and arguments of
the Anti-Slavery Cause in an attractive and
understandable shape for the use of children.
This is done in the form Of conversations be-
tween an Anti-Slavery mother and her little
boy and girl. And it is extremely well done.
The conversations are natural, and the topics
are clearly and ably presented and enforced.
The conversational form into which the mat
ter is thrown takes away from 1t the didaciic
formaiity of a set treatise, and yet it embo-
dies the substance Of Anti-SlavetS doctrine
and discipline, in a perspicuous ihannef.-
Mrs. Jones' idea is one somewhat new, as
applied 10 Anti-Slavery truth but it is a va
liable and judicious one, and is well carried
out. All The various aspects of the cause are
presented, and made obvious to the Under
standing Of the young; and children of a
larger growth would do well to review their
experience in this well-arranged Compend.
All who are acquainted with the character OF
the writings of Mrs. Jones need not be told
that her doctrine is Of the most thorough and
orthodox school of Anti-Slavery, and that
her style is simple; eloquent and energetic.

TUESDAY LAST was the day on which a
President of the United States was elected,
or probably so, for there is a bare possibility
the House of Representatives may have to
do up that work. If Cass is elected, the
prosperity of the country is forever destroy
ed, if the Wings tell the truth il Taylor is
elected, the nation will 60 headlo1g 10 de-
struction, if The Democrats are TO be believed.
The success of either would be enough TO
sink the country to perdition, and would do
it, were it not that a few righteous are yet
left. 1t is to be hoped that this will be, as
it certainly should be, the last Presidential
election under the Federal Union.

8. Resolved, That when a man votes for
a Congressman or President Of the United
States, he votes for the Constitution aud all
the rights, requirements and principles en-
bodied in it, and recognizes that document as
his WI act, and assumes the right 10 perpe-

deeds which the Constitution authorizes Com
gress TO do,

ierred to, it is, to say the least, equally wrong
10 vote for the principle itself.
On Sunday Henry C. Wright lectured up
on war, in connection with the L. S. Con-
%stitu,ion and the Old Testament. He took
the ground that those who sustained the Con-
s~titution sustained War-that they invested
Congress with power to break OPP the peace
ful relations existing between menAto give
authority to burn, FOB and kill in short to
deny all the claims Of Justice, to break down
the barriers Of mortality, and disregard the
voice OF humanity. He commended that God
is an Interchangeable being, that he is now,
and ever has been a God Of Justice, Love,
Mercy and Benevolehce and ,herefote the
unjust, hateful, inhuman wars recorded in
the Old Testament were never authorized by
him. TIE only Christian professor who
stood forth TO combat this latter position,
was an Orthodox Quaket, who said he be-
lieved that the murder Of women and chill
dren, and other atrocious acts of olden time,
whose perpetrators claimed the sanction Of
Jehovah for them, were all authorized and
approved by God!

Mr.. Warner resumed his remarks, and
made d short argument, but finally assenled
to the truth Of The Resolutions. Isaac ]. Big4
low then resumed the argument against The
Resolutions, basing his reasoning upon the
assertion that man as originally created, was
only the Embryo Of man as he appears in
the 10Th century, and therefore God did au-
thorize the wars as the highest manifestation
Of hi; law to man as he then existed but

Porto RicO-From this Island the Diario de Ia
Mariana has dates to the ID instant Every thing
there was quiet On the 10Th there were in port
2 French and 1 American vessels. The exports of
sugar and coffee from the capital for the month of
July, amounted to II, l29 lbs of the former. and
1869 arrobas Of the latter.
Ne,y Granada.-The Diario contains some inter-
esting statistics of New Granada. According to a
census recently taken, the population is O9O, 94l-
being an increase, in three years, of 1862 In
this are not included 1000 Indians The army
of the Republic consists of 3400 men in time Of
peace 10000 in case of imminent danger or in
terror commotion; and 10000 in time Of invasion
or foreign war. The President receives an annual

DEATH BY LIGHTNING.-On the 18th instant,
young man named Eugene Trahan, was killed by
Lightning while on his way from ST. Martnsville to
his home Oyertaken in the midst of the prairie by
violent storm, he was struck dead, together with
his horse. He was worthy man and has left a
family to mourn his sudden and untimely end.
FATAL AFFRAY.-A few days since, says the St.
Martinsvile Creole of the 18th inst, a man named
Charles Jones was shot at and killed by Capt J.
w. Woodland; the parties resided near Grand
River, in this Parish. The reports in relation to
this melancholy affair are so contradictory, that
we hesitate to do more than chronicle the occur
renee, leaving to the proper legal tribunal to inves-
tigate and decidenpon the facts.
DESTRUCTIVE FIRE-At about 10 O'Clock on
on Monday evening last, says the Thibodaux Mi
nerya of the 18th inst fire was discovered in the
Franklin Foundry, lately erected by our energetic
citizens, Messrs Hawley & Gary, at the upper lin
its of tlA corporation. The fire engine was imme
diately brought out, but before it arrived on th,
ground the fire had advanced so rapidly that it wa
impossible to arrest the progress of the deyourin,
element-and very soon the main building, forge
and iron warehouses, were enveloped in flames
and reduced TO ashes. The loss of AIessrs. Hawle,
& Gary is between $4,000 and $4,000, and n
insurance. The fire originated in the main build
ing near the brass furnace, and is supposed to hav
been the work Of an incendiary.

The Taylor men assert that the friends of Cass are

offence on the Taylorites. The Hartford lCt)
Times says The wings are getting out great
many different lives of Zachary Taylor in pamph-
lets. They are not alike. We have seen three diff
ferent kinds within short time. What is singular
among them all you cannot find any proof that he
is the advocate of any political principle. But
they are filled with matter calculated for the me
rdian in which they are to be circulated. , The
truth is political folks appear think all is fair
