numbering beneath her pulpit stairs, are loud
ly calling upon Goods elect" to advance.
What! the Church advance, and that, too,
at the bidding Of the unbaptised ! Shall the
uncireumcised pluck her reverend ordained
clergy by their robes and direct their feet in
the paths of life and salvation! But perhaps
the great bulk Of those who compose the
Church are more to be pitied than blamed.
Placed in circumstances where they have been
compelled to breathe the putrid atmospheric
of politics and sect, where they have been
made the tool, the cats-paw Of political dem
agogues and the apPendage Of sectarian
priests, it is not to be wondered at that they
should be wholly unconscious of the weight
Of the letters that bind them, and that truths
and principles which are of vital importance
10 the happiness and well-being Of man, are
to them as insipid as water TO the dram
drinker.
1t is gratifying to every friend of progress
to know that the magic spell which these
portly, purse-proud organizations, styling
themselves " the Church." have exercised
over the minds and consciences Of men, is
being broken, and their power rapidly decli-
ming. In their stead is being cultivated and
developed a high and holy reverence for hu-
manity, a common feeling Of brotherhood and
a love which "seeketh not her own" In
stead of cold, stupid Sunday ceremonials,
there is a refreshing and happy commiDgling
of human sympathies and affections around
the altar Of our common humanity, dedicated
10 man, his elevation and redemption.
Those who have Haunted in robes %ecclesi-
a~stical, who nave raised the terrific cry OF
heresy agains the worlds reformers, are des-
tined to witness the sceptre which they have
grasped and welded with a tyrant hand, rap
idly depart from Judah and the law-giver
from between his feet" Let no one then be
terrified when a false Church sends forth
from her CORY battlements the cry of "inf-
DEL" nor be frightened at the roar of her ex-
communicatory thunders. Like the scuttle
fish, it is her policy to darken the waters,
thinking thereby to evade pursuit.
Yours, truly, IF. s.

Slavery will cease at no distant day IN every
part OF The Portuguese empire. The number
OF slaves in that empire, since the separation
of Brazil, is computed at from 10000 to Co.
900, nearly 10000 Of whom are in the settle
nents along the eastern coast Of Africa; about
G,000 in the Cape DC Verde Islands; and the
remainder, chiefly in the settlements and on
the islands along the western coast of Africa.

Abolition of Slavery in the Portuguese Col
OnicS.

We are graiifed to learn that there is now
a fair prospect that a law will soon be passed
in Portugal for the Abolition Of Slavery in
all the colonies of that country. A bill
for that purpose was read in the Cham
Der Of Peers at Lisbon on the 25lh Of May
last, and the Committee on Colonial Affairs,
10 whom it was then referred, made their re-
port on the 25th Of June, GpTrOUing The Till
and recommending iS adoption by the Cham
Der. Thu bill provides,
|. That the children Of slaves born after
the date Of The law shall be free from the mo-
ment Of their birth.
ii. That all slaves who enter any territory
or ship of Portugal, after the date of the law,
from whatever motive, shall be considered
free from the moment that they enter such
territory or ship.
This clause is thus qualified In those
countries where Slavery is sanctioned by law,
if slaves go on board a Portuguese ship,
while in any port Of such country, that they
are of course amenable to the laws of thai
country while the ship is in port but if they
be carried out Of The port, they shall be free
from the moment The vessel is clear of The
port. The persons who decay them or take
them away, however, are to he held RESPONSE
BILE for their value. Slaves accompanying
The embassies which African polentates senc
TO the Governors Of Portuguese colonies, may
be held as slaves while the embassy is in lht
country, but will be set free if they remait
after The embassy has left the Portuguese ter
ritory.
Ill. The transportation Of slaves from on,
Portuguese port TO another, or from a Portu
guese port 10 a foreign country, is strictly
prohibited.
~. All slaves now belonging TO the Stat
are declared TO be Immediately free, on III
publication Of the law and all who ma
hereafter become its property are, at the me
ment they become so, declared free.

AGITATIoN.-There is a class of Northern
men who will dance attendance upon power,
and bow down 10 slavery, if paid for it, with
willing Aest, whom the country must be made
to understand. These men are ever c~roakiEg
about agitation and agilators, and in their lit
tleness of spirit, speak of both as weak and
%ephemeral. The Russ talks so of the Mag
var; The Austrian of the. Hungarian; the
Briton Of The lrishman The proud and titled
of seTG or peasant, who dares assert or de-
fend his rights. This has been, and is. the
rlamor of the privileged, the world over. Vet

OFFICIAL CULoRrHoBIA.-The secular pa
pers are discussing, with an earnestness
which indicates the strength that the a%nti-sla-
very feeling has acquired, the refusal Of Sec
rotary Clayton 10 give a passport 10 a colored
lreeholder Of Pennsylvania, who desired to 90
abroad. 1t is pleasing 10 observe, in this dis
cussion, that both accusers and apologists Of
the Secretary's conduct, take special pains TO
abhor the deed. The cowardly subservience
it eyinces 10 siaveholdIng pside and preju-
dice, finds no favor with either political Pc
ty at the North. The pressure Of opinion
has reached even the Secretary himself, who
has been constrained TO Justify his course, by
an appeal to the usage Of the Department.
This has been proved untrne-seveTal inslGn-
ces of passports given to colored citizens,
and in some instances by Secretaries, them,
selves Shareholders, having been cited. But
what If presidents were against il? No one
p%retcnds thai these are Of binding authority (;
and any man, whose mind was not tanned
with unworthy prejudice, or enslaved by fear
Of the South, would, on his own impulses of
justice and right, have granted the passport.
1t would not in the least extenuate the con-
duct Of Mr.. Clayton, if his line Of precedents
had been unbroken. We hope that so lib
eral a man as Mr.. Clayton will yet be asha-
med of his prejudice, and that the indignation
with which such pal,ry injustice is regarded,
will put an end 10 this absurd Difference to
the supposed wishes Of Shareholders and ne
gro-haters.-N. Y. Evangelist.

West India Emancipation.

Emancipation has ruined the British
West India Islands, through the sugar inter-
est, all The world knows, by converting slave
into free labor, and SO enhancing It's price T;
while the Spanish Islands, still in poSscssisn'
Of a cheap slave labor, as Of old, are able 10
sell sugar at a profit, even in England, at pri-
ces at which the Jamaica planters cannoteven
produce it, they prosper and grOw rich, while
the British Islands grow daily poorer and
poorer"
All, yes! BY enslaving 600, 600 Of Gods
intelligent creatures the planters Of Cuba
grow rich, and thai is a good security for the
;,fesAfvaiion of the isian8 ff5m destfuciioffs
This writer's idea of ruin is, a state of things
in which the profits of planters are more or
less diminished, by their inability 10 possess
unreqnited labor in violation of every princi-
pie Of Justice. Their loss outweighs all the
gains Of freedom to hundreds of thousands [!
The liberty Of thousands is valueless when
put beside the unjust gain of scores! This
is the substance of the theory on which has
been based the stale cry that emancipation
has ruined the British colonies.-Bost. Rep.

A MIssoURIAN's HoPE.-A letter from a
citizen of Weston, Missouri, an extract of
which is given by the Examiner, remarks Of

yiction prevails that slavery will not exist
many years. Mr.. Benton is going through
the State making speeches against The er-
tension Of Slavery, although he does not at
tack the institution here. 1t is the opinion
Of all intelligent men | have conversed with
on the subject, that Benton will, at a proper
time, urge the people of this State to adopt
some project of emancipation. For myself,

cure this object in the speediest manner"
