iD'it
FRIENns EDIrons:-
From my days of early childhood | have
ever felt a kind of shrinking from being the
willing messenger of bad tidings; vet the
duties Of lie are some of them stern, and Of
a character requiring courage TO perform in
tine face Of a frowning world and as the
cause of human advancement seems TO re-
qnire il, some one must proclaim the truth in
the following case.
You are aware that we have an Academy
in HarveySburI, and You may probably call
to mind some conversation which passed be-
tween yourselves and me, lat the time of
your late visit here with respect 10 the prob
able or Improbable anti-slavery integrity Of
tho principal Teacher, Wilson Hobbs. |
was speaking strongly in his defence, you
r%ecoIlect that you were, both of you, appre-
hensive that when "weighed in the balance''
he would be found ''wanting.' Well. | sup
pose by the time you finish reading this let
ter you will, as a matter Of course, give your
selves credit for superior judgment over me
in cases OF this kind.
Perhaps ! told you that our friend VIM.
Ia. Reyes was abou, moving to our village
for the purpose of teaching aschool for color
ed children. | must inform you that Marga-
ret Campbell, "a sister to the wife of VIM.
l.. keys) an amiable young wolna Of about
10 years of age, accompanied them here
She came for the purpose, merely, to avail
herself of the privilege of attending our new
Academy, and also to be company for her
sister during her stay in the neighborhood.-
Accordingly, after Margaret had spent a few
days helping to arrange the household affairs
after moving, she presented herself among
the female students at the school room, and
was kindly received by them, with perhaps
two or three exceptions wherein a sliuht
want of good breeding was manifested. as |
was informed by the female teacher, c. C..
Moulton, who has manifested much sympa-
thy towards Margaret. She was told by the
female Teacher to study in the books which
she had brought with her until further ar
Engagements were made, which she, of course,
expected would result in her being furnish
ed by the principal Teacher with such books
as he had furnished other students with, and
placed in some one of the classes. But, alas,
how soon are the brightest hopes sometimes
"
blasted. This amiable young woman was
permitted to attend the school for two days
without being furnished with the necessary
books, or having her name taken down with
the otl.er students on ihe lis; OF enrolment.

he KS.
Yours, &c,
J L..

We thank J. l.. for The foregoing letter;
and although we think some of his views er-
roneous, yet he manifests a desire 10 know,
and a disposition to do the right. To one,
educated as he has been, in a reverence for
the Constitution and a respect for "the pow
ers that be-" it is no cause for surprise that
he should be shocked by our denunciations
Of the Federal Constitution and The Union.
Many of the American colonists were shock
ed when they first heard George Ill denounc-
ed as tyrant, and the Divine Right Of Kings
called in question. Many truth-seeking and pi-
Gus persons were shocked when Martin Luther
denied the inialliability of the Pope, and de-
clared life Catholic Church 10 he the Mother
of Harlots. We all know that il is hard to
give up that which We have been taught to
~love-to cut of the right hand or pluck out
the right eye.
But as our correspondent says he may be
in error, and desires to hold his mind open TO
conviction, We will briefly examine some of
his sentiments and see whether he is not mis-
taken in what he advances, just promising
that our opposition to the Constitution does
not blind us to the fact that it contains MANY
excellent provisions.
We do not feel ourselves under any pecu.
liar obligation to reverence it. because in de-
filming treason it suffers us 10 enjoy free speech
without bringing us to the dungeon or the
scafiold for using it-public sentiment de.
handed that America should not be less liber.
al in this respect than England and when
the fathers framed The Constitution and de-
c!ared in VIVA; treason should consist, instead
Of bringing forth scmothingnew and o%urstrip,
Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1848-03-10

used his authority by way of expelling the
stranger; yet when we remember what wor-
thy citizens some Of the others have former
ly been. we are compelled TO believe that the
tail Of "The great dragon must have been
strongly kinked around their necks SO as
the tail went wagging to and fro, every new
witch seemed 10 bring them to their knees,
making them bow down to the very dust be-.
fore the great demon of oppression, and wor-
ship the Baal Of slavery with the most SER
vile submission, whilst every individual cow
ard Of them will readily acknowledge that he
''has no pc, Sonai objections" to the young
woman going to school, &c. Now | pre-
sumo Judas could have used the same words
just as truthfully. | do not suppose he had
any 'personal objections to letting Jesus
90 free and live and continue his kind acts
to mankind, if he, Judas, could nave got the
money. | presume no murderer for money
ever had any ''personal objections" to letting
his victim lire If he could have the dimes as
safely without taking life as with it.
Wilson Hobbs has taken considerable
pains 10 try to make folks beAiers that his own
choice would have been for Margaret Camp
bell to conc TO school, had it not been for
the fifty stockholders who own the building;
yet be it remembered that he himself was the
first one who took frighta and beganto ''scan-
per" on the occasion; be it also remembered
that he labored very ardently to try 10 get
joseph G.. Stevenson to consent 10 her OK
%pnlsion be it remembered that he took the
responsibility Of expelling this young wo-
man before JonrJyihs Of the stockholders
knew anything Of his being so frightened at
a woman. Be it also remembered that we
have just held large public meeting on this
occasion, which was ably and appropriately
addressed by Samuel Lewis, Of Cincinnati ;
and after the address an expression Of pub
lie opinion was called for by a rising vote,
when 10 Wilson was found voting among
the few who exposed themselves as the open
enemies of Christianity. Now if there were
any christianity among the members of the
church 10 which Wilson belongs, would not
its members be soon found laboring with
him for such conduct! | think they would.

| hope you will excuse my troubling you
with my scribbling, being a subscriber for
your paper, which | understood at the time
of subscribing was a free discussion paper, l
will avail myself o: the privilege to intrude

Although | have endeavored to render my

publication, still | must confess that | expert
enced a slight and irrepressible shudder al hn-
ding our governmental institutions so boldly
and firmly attaeked-those institutions which
l had been taught to regard as sacred and in
violable, a word against which was little bet
ter than sacrilege. No wonder then, that for
a moment almost doubted my senses, and

ls Mr.. A. to be present and participate in the
meeting, but he was "wisc as a serpent
he kept away. In the evening | understand
Mr.. I. Cummins preached a sermon 10 the
Methodist church, taking the opposite ground
of Mr.. Atchbold, viz that the church is
pro.slavery. One truthful statement was
made by Mr.. A., which all knew to he true.
''!dai The church in this place has last all its
influence"
Several other very interesting meetings
have been held which have awakened the at
tention Of the people. y spirit Of inquiry is
ELECTED in the whole region round about, and
the end is not yet.
A good deal of excitement has been crea-
ted for a week past by tho appearance of a
Mr.. Rouse, who has been l%ecturin1 at New
Market. | received a challenge from him 10
discuss our views on the character of the
cl nrch government and Constitution. Yes
terday he came on to Leesburph. The Pros.
were in ecstacies. From the accounts given
Of the man, | expected a formidable opPo-
nent, and prepared accordingly. Seven pro-
positions were agreed To, covering the whole
ground. The audience was large. and great
interest was awakened, this being the first
public opponent we have had.
/ opened the discussion, and spoke half an
hour on the first proposition. Mr.. A. Il.
D~enpster presided. Mr.. Rouse had not sr,-
ken many minutes before it was evident to
all that he knew nothing whatever of the
subject under debate. He had come there
as the great champion of the Church and
State, but before Ice had spoken twenty min
utes the leading member of the church LETT
him in his glory. He never attempted the
discussion al all {; the chair called him to or
der, and insisted that having agreed 10 the
propositions he was in honor bound TO pay
regard 10 them. At the close Of the meeting,
tie audience, composed Of all parties, voted
unaniaiousIy that he had failed entirely to
the negative. Then a motion was
carried that the discussion adjourn sine die,
IN the ground Of the incapacity of the mega
live to debate the question. The chairman
stated that he never saw such an entire fail
Ire on the part of disputant to sustain a po-
'ition. SO ended a discussion which | had
10 last a week. and that too a week
# thorough and critical examination. This
Rouse is going from place 10 place, pre-
10 something great. l hope the
friends will know how to lrea, him should he
at any place where the friends of the
slave live.
The cause of truth must progress. The
Of its progress depends upon the
faithfulncss and devotion of those whose re-
ligion is, regard for mankind.
