A Word Wore 90 our EmnucIpn,uon Friends.

The more we reflect upon the late movement
in this State on the subject Of Emancip alton,
the more firmly are we convinced Of the sound
policy which dictated the plan Of running can
didstes. expressly with view of bringing out
and demonstrating public opinion upon this ques'
ton. The excitement which il occasioned we
consider he althy ore, and one which is abso-
lutely necessary and inevitable whenever truth
comes into active conflict with cng-estabIished
error.
A question like this, involving as il does 3
radical and horough exs miuation Of the nature
OF property in human beings, cannot be stirred
in esrnest at any time without producing an
excitement that disturbs the quiet of every va
riety OF HUnkerisM, be il in church or State
1t goes home to mems hearts aud consciences,
and it has about it vitality aud growth that
imParts 70 all those who examine it, and act
upon it, spirit Of unyieldiDg earnestness.
God has so made the human heart, that It's
natural pulsatOns are ever for freedom, and in
this nineteenth century Of ours il beats quicker
and truer than ever before. There must be
some change in the relations of G cd TO man or in
OF our common humanity, before this question
Of the PerPeluaiion ofhuman slavery can become
either subordinate obsolete. While slavery
exists 10 country that makes its boast of free
dom, il can only be as "a troubled sea, that is
never at rest, but is constantly casting up mire
and dirt"
Wesuppose none will deny, that had it not
been for those persons, who ale the steadfast
friends Of human freedom from clear convic-
lion and well settled principle, and of whom
there are probably larger number in Kentucky
than in any other slave State, the question Of
Emancipation would not have been agitated in
our late elections.
We honor them, and all good men every-
where must honor them for their patriotic and
virtuous courage. They acted out their con-
VictiOns Of duty fairly, honestly and openly F.,
and it is impossible they should ever look back
upon such a course Of action with regret
There is much sound philosophy in those clear
and forcible teachings of Gods word, where we
srsdirected not to "hide curl light under bush
el," but TO set il on a candlestick, so that it
may be seen and understood of all men, and
where we are further directed to '1et our light
SHINE, so that others may SEE our good works -
The open activity and honest candor thus in
culcaied, and which Characterised the conduct
Of a large majority of the EmsncipstiOnists du-
ring the late election, cannot fail ultimately Of
meeting It's reward-we shall yet reap an album
dAnt and glorious harvest, if We faint not. We
say Then TO the ffiends of freedom eOeTyurheye
be steadiasi, maintain Your principles, keep up
your organization if you have one, or get up
one If you have not, and finally, at all times act
In such manner as to secure the approval OF
your own eonsciences, and you must command
the respect Of those who now honestly differ
from you.

Woa..antic story.

We cut the following from recent foreign
letter, published In the New York Evening
Post:
A most singular story has come outby death
which took place at monastery near Paris.
last week.
Several years ago, rich miller, living in one
Of the provinces, became so unhappy by the
death Of his wife, that placing his only child,
girl Of ten years Of age, in convent, he re-
paired to the monastery near Paris, and became
monk. Daring BLK or seven years he led
most pious lie, bal from the gloom of his cell
he thought cflens q bis daughter. The desire
to see her ~r~~ <e<5nseh npon him, tina, he al
last resolved 70 Opsa dorresp ondence with her;
the answers he rccsised % hiBIetters, were such
as 10 re-awaken all the affections of other days
within his bosom. The young girl on her side,
was no less eager to see once more parent
whose early tenderness she still remembered
With resolution surprising in one of her age,
she quilted the convent, dressed herself in male
attire, and sought the monastery In which her
father resided. She there resumed the hahjt of
the Order and was named brother Robert. She
was then but seventeen years Of sge. She took
care moi 10 reveal herself TO her father until
the irrevocabls vows had been pronounced; when
at last she followed him to his cell and told her
story. The joy he expressed at folding bis be-
greet which her act of devotion caused him,
brought on a fever which ended his life in few
days. The young girl found herself now in II
situation which nothing but the religious edu-
cation she had received, could have enabled her
4 TO bear. Deprived of the support which the
daily sight Of her father would have given her,
she vallantly mortified herself in every possible
way in order TO keep down the worldly regrets
which arose in her heart. She became the ex-
ample Of the convent, and the sanctity Of Fri
ar Robert was spread abroad in all France
The most holy Offices were cOD6ded principally
/ to her; Il Was she who was sent to pray by the
bedside Of the dying, and TO console the sfilict-
| ed. But she did an immense deal Of good
among the young ladies of Paris, whom the
world and its pleasure had drawn from the path
OF duty. To these she never wearied Of talk =
| ing; her humility surprised them; the smpiic-
| ity Of her soul, and the sweetness Of her voice,
charmed them completely, and Friar Robert
rarely failed in bringing these wanderers back
to the right way.
| At last, however, SANDER attacked the fair
fame of Frisr Robert, and he was accused Of be-
ing too fond of visiting female sinners. The
Able OF the monastery imposed upon the pre-
ten ded brother, az penitence, to serve the whole
community, and TO do the most repugnant and
toughest work. She did all without a murmur
and during three years, accomplished the rude
duties laid upon her, without failing in a single
| one.
| Last week she died, and the remorso of the
monks may well be imagined, when II was dis
covered that il was a sister instead Of a brother
whom they had been furnishing so long.

Union, and that twenty human belngs TO the
square mile should have been allotted TO the
earth, that being the average number in those
happy model communities where the laborers
slaves.
Was It ever before heard that man with
sense enough TO keep himself out Of lunal'c
asylum, world stand up aud coolly tell an in
telIigent audience I'VE here quote from the or
thodox Pro.slavery writings OF the immortal
Fisher that "God made the country, but man
mace the town. and then 90 on TO show that
somehow or other the country was not made
right, owing to the vulgar notions about per-
sona freedom which igenerally obtain there,
"until negro slavery effected change and
made it SO profitable and attractive, as to become
the abode Of elegant manners and refined taste !"
Does any one suppose for n moment that il
the politicians had not been driven by the Emen-
cipalionsts into defence of human slavery we
should have witnessed a distinguished Wing
ex-member Of Congress harranguing the voters
of Jefferson county In advocacy of perpetual
ism, and that his main argument would consist
and women of New England, including their
churches, schools, lyceums. and savings banks,
with the ignorant and degraded field negroes of
Kentucky, &c the manifest advantage of the lat
ter.
Can any one believe that the talented editors
of a paper that is almost universally admitted
to be the ablest In the southwest, would take
the ground that "moral, social aud political
evil Is to whttle itself away by the uncsrtsin
operation of mural causes, supported. upheld
and strengthened AZ II Is by the united inau-
ence of both the great political parties in the
State, especially in view of the fact that this
whliling operation has enlarged the evil to be
removed, nineteen times within the last fifty
years, except upon the suppostion that their
party craft was in danger, and that policy re.
qOired them to join in the general shout, "grea'
is Diana Of the Ephssians."
There are other blessings about this thing Of
negro slavery, Of recent discovery. which we
may notice In another number.

bs we'll vndersiood, and which, jus. ia proper
ton as they are thoroughly known, are found
to be as strict and inhexible as the laws which
regulate the movements Of the planets, disease
may not be wholly avoided, but exposure to 1t
may be indefinitely diminished, and its viru-
lence be intellectually abated. The awful NOR
tality among the poor of the European cities,
humanity speaking, is owing directly to damp,
ill.regulated houses, bad water, insufficient
food and clothing. In this new world, over
which Nature has slrewn her gifts 30 layishly,
all these causes Of disease, by forethought' ac-
tive benevolence, and wise municipal regula-
tons, may be, II not entirely prevented, greatly
modified and restrained in their influence. The
disease, which has lately gone through our land
as the dread angel Of death, has repeated in his
deep sepulchral tones the warning which time
aud again has been sent to US across the broad
Atlantic. God grant that our heedlessness may
not make another and more fearful warning
necessary.
