The Prisoners Friend.

This interesting and useful magazine deserves
a wide circulation. We bid God speed to works
Of this kind, which aim to carry the benign
spirit Of Christianity into all social relations,
and 10 realise the great end proposed by the
Saviour, Of seeking and saving the lost.
We have often been grieved, as well as panied,
by the utter indifference manifested by professed
Christians towards criminals. How any one
can read the pages Of the New Testament and
discern the SaviOurs spirit there revealed, and
not have his mind aroused to perception Of the
duty devolved upon him, 10 use every means
for the restoration Of these unfortunate fellow
beings, is 10 us a matter Of profound astoaish-
ment We have no sympathy with that foolish
sensibility, which causes one to see in the in
mates Of our prisons only misfortune and moi
vice, but seeing and deplOring the vice, the ae-
tusl wickedness, which has filled our prisons
we feel all the more pity for the wretched vic
tins, (for surely vice is the most deplOrablt
thing in CREATION and the more urgent neces
sity for earnest, faithful, unremittiDg exertioni
in their behalf.
Society owes debt Of gratitude, which NJ
words can measure, TO men like Mr.. Spear, edi
tor of the Prisoners Friend, on whom the man
tie Of John Howard has fallen, and who, il
their labors Of love, are not merely complying
with the demands Of Christianity, but are do
ing mnch to reform and elevate society in all il
relations

Such are the facts in regard TO slavery in Mis-
SCUM, the most northern of the slave States.
And what is the case in Texas, which forms
the frontier in the extreme South?
The fact, that slavery is made perpetual by
her constitution (whaf strange infatuation, 10
have thus planted Asis's upas amid our glorious
Western fOrests!) would seem to indicate an al
together different prospect, from that which
glAddehs the eyes OF the friends of freedom in
Missouri. But consultations are not infallible.

poor man cannot Afford 10 die In Cinclnnati!'
And why7 Because the expenses Of respecta.
Bile burial will cost his family more than they
can afford--perhaps more than they can raise
without the sacrifice Of all they have.
The writer recommends remedy for much
Of the useless aud oppressive expenditure which
he describes, and insists on the necessity of ex-
ample in this as in every other reform.
There must be, he says, change, and
good men must commence the work of refor-
nation. No matter what others may say, II
must be done. Let Christians, respectable citi-
zens, who may be abundantly able to follow
the fashion, even in a funeral display, see that
in their families, when the angel Of death has
visited them. there be litiie stir and bustle.-
Let everything be ordered and arranged that
a deep serious impression shall fall upon all who
come in. Let the laying out and the coffin be
plain and economical; and let the number OF
carriages lie few, sufficient only 10 carry the
| immediate connections and those unable to
walk. Let Christians always refuse to ride in
a funeral procession unless the weather or the
distance, OF their own health, make IL improper
TO walk. and let private carriages he employed
as much as possible. II the burial is out of the
city, let the friends only attend--a procession
on foot might properly accompany to the out
skirts of the city.
| The foregoing suggestions must commend

| is demanded, no one at all observant Of tn,
present system Of conducting funerals, car

The National Era.

In the last number Of the National Era, our
fnend, DR.. Bailey takes exception to our article
IN which we declined to AID in the formation OF
a Van Buren, electoral ticket in Kentucky. Our
reasons failed to satisfy hm, for he thinks that
such ticket instead of proving disadvantage
Gus to the great cause Of emancipation in the
State would promote IT.
We have the highest respect for the opinions
Of the editor of the Era. We have read atten-
lively all that he has to say in opposition TO our
position, and stl think our course the best we
can pursue. He admits he may not be able TO
appreciate all the circumstances that had weight
with Us in the formation of our opinions, land we
feel very certain that, if he were here, his adg-
ment would soon be convinced Of the pTopnety
OF the neutrality we have decided TO observe in
relation 10 the different presidential candidates
As citizens we have our preferences, and, when
the day of election arrives, we intend to give
our votes in accordance with those preferences,
while as Editors of the Examiner, we shall nei-
ther advocate nor oppose the claims OF Mr.. Van
BUTen, Gen. Cas-, OF Gen. Taylor.
since we fen called on, IN view OF considefa-
tons connected with the approaching cOnven.
ton, to say that we could not participate in the
formation Of Free Soil Ticket, we have had the
satisfaction Of receiving assurances from many
Of the most iUdiciOOs friends Of emancipation,
that our course is heartily and generally approx
ed by them. All the reflection we have given to
the subject confirms the opinion we then adyanc
ed, namely, that we can better promote the
cause of emancipation in Kentucky by observ-
ing stnet neutrality toward the different presi.
dental candidates, than by deyOtng our col.
umns TO the advocacy Of either of them.

The CanneIson less~n Min,

Incorporated by the last Legislature of Indiana
capital $50O.OOO, has. as we learn, been fully
organised by the election Of William Richardson
President, Alfred Thruston Treasurer, and
Charles w. Short, Lewis Rsffner, William F
Petit, p. Chamberlin, T. c. Coleman, Jas C
Ford, Judge Morgan, Of La, and Col. w. NJ

From the high character of these gentlemen
we have a satisfactory guaranty of the success
Of this new and important enterprise.
The first mil will. as is supposed, BIO in full
operation early next fall, and contain 10, 00O
sPindles, and make coarse brown sheetings.
This mill, although in another State. and 100
miles below us, is essentially Louisville mill
most of the proprietors reside here, its whole
management will be here, and all the sales will
here be made.
We rejoice to see that few leading and
wealthy gentlemen Of the South are interested
in this, and We venture to predict that they and
their southern friends through them, will soon
be practically convinced that there is more pro-
fit in manufacturing cotton by free labor than
in producing il by slave labor.

slavery in sfi-.eurt.

The st. Louis Daily Organ expresses the
opinion that slavery will, in twenty-five years,
cease TO exist in the State of Missouri, and
that, too, without any agency Of Legislatures,
or conventions Of the people, but in the natu-
sal progress Of events. Among the chief ele-
ments in producing this desirable result, are the
large influx Of the German population, now
amounting to nearly 10000, very few Of whom
employ slave labor, and who are almost univer-
sally opposed TO the system; and the great in
crease Of anti-slavery feeling in the free States
bordering on Missouri, Oceasionlng great num-
bers Of slaves TO run away from their owners,
and thus rendering that Kind of properly very
insecure The soil Of Missouri is also not
adapted for the profitable employment Of slave
labor. By The following table il will be seen
that slavery has reached its highest level in that
State, and that the proportion Of slave popula-
ton to the free is already diminishing:

We commend to the careful attention Of our
readers the following article. The facts, which
il presents, are extremely interesting, both in
themselves, and because Of the influence which
they have already eIerted in many minds, In
producing the conviction that slavery is doomed
to certain and speedy death. When public
tilted with the anti-slavery cause, express, with
out qualification or reserve, the opinion that
the solemn decree has gone forth and that the
days Of the famous institution, which once
seemed to bear charmed life, are numbered,
we may rest assured that mighty change has
been effected in the public mind, and may in
duIge in confident, sanguine expectation Of the
speedy triumph of freedom.

Here again the difference is, IN every instance
of comparison, largely in favorof the free States
True, the disparity is not so great as in the case
OF the old States; and yet the contrast is suffi-
GENTLY striking to show that the "pecular insti-
tuition has already laid its iron grasp upon
some of the most hopeful Of the younger men,
bers of our Republic. II il only in communi-
ties where slavery has existed for long series
of years, until generations have grown up under
lis influence, and society has felt its whitening
and blighting power, in uprooting the fairest viz
tues, in debssing the highest relations, in re-
straining physical exertion, and in paralysng
moral and intellectual effort, IT is there only,
say, where exists an old, an established onler OF
things, that we can expect TO see the worst
fruits Of the Institution. Dnnng the next fifty
years, we may calculate with certainty, on reap
ing an abundant harvest from the paintings Of
the last half century.

INDIAN HUMANITY AND FIDEL1TY.-Dur-
ing The period Of the American Revolution,
young Shawanese Indian was taken pris-
oner by the Cherokees, and condemned to
die. He was tied to the stake and every
preparation was made for his immediate ex-
ecu,ion, when Cherokee woman arrived
with parcel Of goods, and throwing them
down at the feet of the warrior to whom the
prisoner belonged, begged for his release,
alleging that she was widow, and would
adopt the captive as her son. The request
was granted, the prisoner released, and de-
livered over to her, and on the same day he
walked up and down the village well dress
ed. His prolectress relied so much upon
his fidelity that she permitted him to visit his
family and flends in his own country
lie proved faithful, and no persuasions nor
entreaties of his relations could prevail upon
him 10 forsake her.
