one was a rich man who could afford TO give
literally the other was p poor man who was
made destitute by the cx-action. The Sc
cretary received in return the thanks Of the
State, with itoo thousand dollars added the
pardoned Convict can gain no apology for
the wrongs inflicted, nor his hire of IRE hun
drcd dollars. The award Of compensation 10
Horace Mann, is praised as a generous act,
and The deed trumpeted abroad /; the refusal
to compensate Hebulon Paine is not regarded
as the gross injustice that it is, though the
press is not anxious 10 make that refusal
known less some should pronounce it inta-
nous.
When Massachusetts is commended for
its treatment of Horace Mann, let its neg
lect Of Zebulon Paine be also remembered.

The Difference.

Most Of our readers are familiar with the
labors Of Horace Mann of Mass, in The cause
of education. 1t appears by a report from a
Committee of the Massachusetts Legisla.
iure, that while Secretary Of the Board of
Education he expended considerable more in
fdrlherance of The cause than he received for
his services; and in conside ration of his
sacrifices, they recommended The adoption of
a resolution, ordering the payment TO him of
So, 000-an amount that would not near COW
er the expenditures referred TO-. The advice
of the Committee was followed, and the pa
pers greatly laud Massachusetts for this act,
not Of generosity, but justice.
Their is another citizen of Massachusetts,
who labored in a different sphere from that
filled by Horace Mann, but with less honor
TO himself, and with less profit to the State,
although the latter absorbed his entire earn
ings. Zebulon Paine was a poor uneducated
man who was unjustly sentenced 10 the State
Prison for arson. After fourteen months hard
iabor there, the fact of his innocence was es-
iablished, and he released. A memorial in
his behalf was presented to the Legislature,
and a Committee 10 which it was referred,
deemed it no more than just that Zebulon
Paine should receive $500 as a partial COM
pensation for the injuries he had suffered
The lower branch of the House agreed with
the Committee, but twice have the Senate
refused to concur, and the wronged man
pleads in vain for redress.
The difference between these two cases is
simply this. Horace Mann voluntarily ex-
pended his means; Zebulon Paine was COM
PEELED 10 render his services. The labor OF
The former produced honor 10 himself; that
Of the latter was the mark Of disgrace. The

Pay Your Debts,

We hope the abolitionists vii! remember
that the Western Society has been in debt
the last two years from six to eight hundred
dollars. We cannot say what balance against
the Society the Report of the Treasurer will
show at the coming anniversary, but we pre-
sumo the debt is not much, if any less than
il was last year. This is owing in part to
the fact, that some who made pledges, have
not redeemed them; and that very many do
so, is a general complaint among those who
are entrusted with the charge of conducting
the operations Of religious and benevolent
organizations. Abolitionists--tlose who
conterd that the laborer is worthy ofhis hire,
whether his complexion he light or dark,
should, above all others, be inst and pune
tual in the payment of their debts. The sha-
dow Of debt Ought not to rest upon the an
nual meeting; and if we knew how to per-
enade those who have aot yet redeemed their
pledges, 10 pay what they owe before the an
adversary. and those who can spare some
what in ddi6on TO their previous contribu-
lions 10 give it now how gladly would we
do so.
The Society ought 10 be oa Of debt; AMI we
feel as though the abolitionists Of the West
should give themselves no rest until it is So,
should makethis lat the pFesent tire, Tie chan.
mel through which thcir contributions to the
cause should flow. The debt of the Society
is the debt of abolitionists; when shall it be
paid You, reader, may not be able TO tel
of it shall be paid; and The sooner the
whole is liquidated, the more creditable viii
il be for the friends of the cause.

A Significant Fact,

The American and Foreign Anti-Slavery
Society, in its last Annual Report, states mat
the {" National Era " has refunded the money
which that Society formerly advanced Tor It's
support, together with interest upon The same
wallpaper having prospered beyond all eS-
pectation. The location of the "Era in
wolves in itself a very heavy expense, to say
nothing of the salary Of its associate editor,
and the pay Of its corps of gifted coniribu-
tors yet in three years, it is not only able TO
sustain itself and pay its back debts, but its
editor is growing rich upon its profits Such
a state of affairs is unprecedented in the his
tory of Anti-Slavery Journals. The " Liber'
alor,'' which, for nineteen years, has been a
faithful sentinel upon the watchtower OF Lib
erty, has ever been, pecuniarily, a losing con-
Germ to its supporters. This is also true OF
all other Disunion papers and the same may
be said, with scarcely an exception, OF all
Liberty party journals-those which do live,
maintain a precarious existence, while the
trrion which have been discontinued, have,
for their epitaph. q" Starred 10 Heaih."
49,
The Cincinnati "Philanthropist and Her
aid could barely live, but the National
Era" grows fat, and fourisbes. The DR..
Bailey who edited the one, was, in his pow
erty, an illustration Of the common fate OF
reform journals while the DR.. Bailey who
edits the latter, is, by his charging purse be-
coming an exception 10 the general rule
Now, no one ought to object to the growing
prosperity of the Dr., but people wiH enquire
whether The +" Era is so popular and profit
able because of the growing popularity OF
anti-slavery, or because the tone Of the paper
is not guile high enough TO greatly offend the
moderate defenders Of the patriarchal insiitu-
ton, or whether it is owing TO both these eau
ses. lis iourishing condition is certainly a
significant fact-but what it is significant oil
each must determine for himself.

Tcmporizing,


The idea That they who adopt haJ- tcay
measures in a good cause while ,choic-,coy
measures are before the community and only
awaiting its sanction, DO more injury to the
cause, for a time, than its avowed opponents,
may seem strange, and yet we believe it is
true. To illustrate moderate drinking is,
in itself considered, better than immoderate
drinking (; and a pledge which requires absii-
nence from the use of spirilious liquors, but
permits the use Of Germented drinks, is, in it,
self, better than a custom which allows both.
But when the attention Of community is ar
rested, its sympathies awakened in behalf of
the drunkaid, and the doctrine Of total absti-
nence demonstrated to be the only principle
that will secure his salvation, any one who
should propose moderate drinking as a sub
%stitute, and a halfway pledge as more dcsi.
rable because more popular, and thus divert
the attention Of the community from the more
excellent plan, such a or would injure the
Temperance cause more tan ten rum-sellers
could possibly do.
The same is true Of the Peace movement
and of the Anti-Sldvery cause. They who,
as professrd friends of either, lower the stan
dard of principle, and for the sake of winning
more converts, consent 10 advocate measures
which do not Gil the full measure Of truth,
are working against God and Man, however
much they may profess to love both.
1t is not, of course, 10 be expected thai
men will 90 beyond their idea Of right; bu'
then they should not stop short Of it. The
witness who enters the civil court, before he
is permitted to give in his evidence, is obi
ged to promise that he will tn lie truth, THE
WHOLE TRUTH, and nothing bit Tie truth anC
they who come forward to bear witness 70
God, to testify in his behalf in the grea
court Of the Universe, are guilty Of fdlsehood
if by tCord or DEED they withhold or corcea
the truth. Every individual should aim t
leave his impress upon the age in which h,
lives, and he he refuses to act out his tUhoi
self, is not only unjust to himself and to hi;
race, but is a moral coward who fears TO ap
pear as he really is, and strives TO seem wha
he is not. lie only is true 10 God, to h.
race, and 10 himself who boldly ]unfurls hi
standard of right, and battles under it, wheth
er with the many, the few, or solitary an,
! alone.

PITTsBuRGH, May 2lst

There was a disgracenl riot yesterday
morning, in the German Presbyterian Church,
in this city, among the members Of the con-
gregatlon.
At late election for Pastor and officers. the
Rev. Mr.. KoehIer, previously Pastor of the
Church, and his ticket was defeated by a
majority Of twenty. Mr.. Koehlrr and his
friends persisted against the majority, and
kept possession of the keys. Yesterday Mr..
Koehler entered the pulpit and proceeded to
the services as usual, when Mr..
Demler, a member Of the ChLrch, told the
minister he was usurping his place, and that
he must leave. Mr.. Hammer and others in
terlered, and a general fight ensued, in which
both men and women took part.
Hammer and Demler were arrested and
gave hail to keep the peace, and for their APP
pearance at Court.
The Mayor thought it best to lock up the
Church till it should be settled.
