The Boston ATLAS says that the u S. steamer
Princeton has been condemned by the Board of

lS43, under the supervision of Capt Stockton, and
no expense was spared upon her; she has, there

Portsmouth, it is said, will be ordered round to the
Charleston Navy yard, to be fitted for sea.

English Parliament will have no effect upon

that some affirmative legislation on our part

% The Taylor wings would have these
men who have labored for years in the
cause of human freedom commit the unnat-
ural and suicidal act of abandoning their
principles and give their support 10 the

tanning the sinking cursed institution of
slavery, just at time when the masses of
the people, and their representative are rea-
