u We have the pleasure Of laying be-
fore our readers a letter from Missouri's
faithful and true-hearted Senator, the be-
loved ATcHIsoN. We are much gratifed
at his promise to visit our county during the
ensuing summer or fall. As soon as he shall
have fixed upon the time of his visit, we
will give due notice thereof, so that all of
our citizens may have the opportunity of
seeing and hearing the faithful sentinel OF
the democratic party. In the meantime we
would solicit for the correspondence be-
tween him and a portion of our citizens an
attentive perusal.
BowL1xe GREEN, Mo-,
May 20, ls49.
Hon. DAVID R. ATcHIsoN:
SIR: The undersigned, a portion of your demo-
cratic fellow-citizens Of the county Of Pike, have
viewed with emotions Of pride and pleasure, your
course as one Of the Representatives of Missouri
in the Senate of the United States, on all the
great questions that have excited public opinion,
since you have been a member of that body-we
have always found you faithfully representing the
will Of the people Of the State. To the leading
and prominent measures of democratic policy
which have distinguished the administration Of
ex-President Polk-an administration destined to
live on the page of history with those of Jeffar-
son and JacksOn-you have always yielded not a
Ilkerarm, negative, or doubtful approval, but .
cordial, decided and Jealous support. Such po-|
litical action becomes the representative of the
democracy that has SO lately honored you with its
unanimous confidence. In the late session Of
Congress, especially, the interests Of the State
which you in part represent, has been the polar
star Of your official conduct. Like faithful SEN
tinel, you have warned your constituents Of the
dangers that lie in their path, and of the actual
and meditated encroachments of political power
and misguided fanaticism upon their rights
Placed in the midst of the slavery agitation, you
saw the fearful inroads which the fanatics of the
North and East are making upon the constitution,
and the progress and designs of the fell spirit of
Abolition, and you had the holiness and fidelity
TO unite in an address to the people of the slave
States, advising them of their danger, and throw
ing uponthem the responsibility Of adopting such
measures as to them might seem best. For this
act of your political life, we give you special
praise. In this we believe you were "funda-
mentally right" and for it we desire to testify toI
you our increased confidence and undated es-
TEEN. We desire to meet you face to face-toI
shake you by the hand, to make your PERSONAL
acquaintance, and we request that you will pay
us a visit during the ensuing summer, and par
take OF the Inequalities of our citizens. Wei
shall be happy to meet you at the festive board
or under any other circumstances that may best
suit your pleasure and convenience

FlOgging in the Navy.

A proposition to abolish fogging in the
navy, which was before the recent Congress,
caused, by its discussion, quite a manifesto
ton of feeling in the Senate. Those who
opposed it, commended there was no substi-
tute which would as effectually maintain or
der. that it was found TO be necessary in
other navies and was necessary in that of this
nation that the officers were opposed to its
abolition, as were all the men who, by mis-.
behavior did not render themselves subject 10
that form of punishment. On the other hand,
it was asserted that fogging degraded men,
that 1t was an unnecessary, an Infamous and
bloody punishment; and one Senator-John
T HaIe-declared it was calculated 10 pro.
duce mutiny among the men, and that ii
ough! 10 produre mutiny." This was an I'M
usual declaration to come from a Senator, and
he was rebuked for making it, and told that
such sentiments coming from such a source
were themselves calculated to produce mutt.
ny. There is unquestionably truth in the
declaration of John P. Hale, and it required
some boldness to make it; for although there
were no Captains and Commodores present
TO frown him down, the advocates OF the
Cdt-o' nine tails were there and successfully
voted a continuance of their use.
The treatment Of sailors on board the ma
tional vessels has ever been an outrage upon
humanity, and it is well that public attention
is being directed 10 the subject. But there
is a class Of persons whose manhood is far
more outraged than that of the man-ofwar-
men have ever been, and who count ~flogging
as one of the lightest dispensations with
which the agents of the Evil One visit them.
We wish John p. Hale had said as much
for them we wish he had told the southern
Senators to their faces that the flogging of
SlaUes-to say nothing Of the far more terri
BILE treatment TO which they are subjected
ought to produce mu,iny among them. Per-
haps he will yet do it-perhaps in the pro.
gress of human events he will become as
bold for the American Slave as he was for
The American Sailor, and have no more the
fear of Southernors before his eyes, than he
did the fear of Captains and Commodores
when he declared that resistance to tyranny
was obedience to God, and made an unmis
taxable application of it by saying that thu
seamen who were iogged ought to mutiny
Calhoun what a furry there would hav,
been had Hale said slaues instead of sailors
The South would have looked bowie-knives
and felt as insulted as though the whip hac
been applied to their own backs.

not 10 fail ingloriously without essaying a
defence.
An anli-slavery meeting was appointed 10
be held in the Hall on the evening of the
l7th, at which it was expected Angelina
Grimkie Weld, of South Carolina, would be
one Of the principal speakers. At the hour
appointed, the Hail was brilliantly illumina-
ted and densely crowded. William Lloyd
Garrison first addressed the meeting, and was
followed by Angelina Weld, who, as a south
ern woman and a repentant STAKEHOLDER, made
a powerful and touching appeal. While she
was speaking there was occasional tumult
within, and the continuous bowling of the
mob without. Stones and brick.bats came
crashing through the glass and sash Of the
windows, and every thing beiokened the in
creasing courage Of a set of blood thirsty
%rufians, and Swallowed forth the destruction
Of that noble building, which was fired and
entirely consumed on the following night.
When the speaker last referred to had Ia
ken her seat, Abby Kelley,wh was upon the
platform rose and said -

cuous assembly :; nor is it now the mad
dening rush of those voices, which is the
indication of a moral whirlwind, nor is it
the crashing of those windows, which is
the indication of Il moral earthquake, that
calls me before you. No, not these
These pass unheeded by me. But it is
the still small voice within, which may
not be wilhstood, that bids me open my
mouth for the dumb-that bids me plead
The cause of Gods perishing poor-aye,
Gods poor.

A Enthusiastically KeIley'S first
Speech.

1t was about the middle Of May, 1888,
that a large concourse of persons assembled
in Philadelphia to celebrate the opening of a
Hall to be dedicated to Free Discussion
Pennsylvania Hall-for this was the name of
the b~uilding-was a beautiful edifce, and
worthy of the spirit that called it into being.
For three days it had been thrown open for
the discussion of various moral questions,
while the rage of those who hated the liah:
because their deeds were evil continually in.
creased, and threats of violence were openlv
made, and as openly encouraged by the res.
pectability and standing of the city. The
friends Of Humaniiy-lhe advocates of Free
Discussion were not thus easily to be driven
from their position they might fail in main
tanning their rights, but they were resolved

TaylOr'S Inaugural.

President Taylor delivered the follow
ing Inaugural, upon taking the oath and
office Of President of the United States.
Elected by the American people TO the
highest office known TO our laws, | ap-
pear here 10 take the oath prescribed by
the Constitution, and in compliance with
a ,ime-honored custom, to address those
who are now assembled. The conf
dence and respect shown by my country
men in calling me to be the Chief Mag
istrate of a Republic holding a high rank
among the nations Of the earth, have in-
spired me with feelings of the most pro.
found gratitude.
But when | reflect that the acceptance
of the Office which their partially has
bestowed, imposes the discharge of The
most arduous duties, and involves the
weightiest obligations, | am conscious
that the position which | have been
called to fill, though sufficient TO satisfy
The lofIiest ambition, is surrounded by
fearful responsibilities.
Happily, however, in tho performance
Of my new duties, | shall moi be without
able cooperation of the legislative and
judicial branches ofIhe government which
present prominent examples Of disIin-
guished civil attainments and nalured
experience ; and it shall be my endeavor
TO call to my assistance in The executive
departments individuals whose talents in
tegrity and purify of character will fur
nish ample guarantees for the faithful and
honorable performance of the trusts TO
be committed TO their charge.
With such aids and an honest purpose
to do whatsoever is right, | hope 10 exc.
cute diligently, imparrially, and for the
best interests of the country, the mani
fold duties devoIving upon me,
In the discharge of these duties, nv
guide will be the Constitution, which |
swear this day 10 preserve, protect and
defend.
For the Interpretation of that instru.
ment | shall look 10 the decisions of Tho
judicial tribunals established by its au.
thority and to the practice of the govern.

AID AND COMFORT TO FUGITIvE SLAVES
1t has been proposed to throw a suspension
bridge across the Ohio at Cincinnati, thus
connecting this Stale with Kentucky. The
bill to charter a company for this purpose, we
understand has been adopted by the Kentuc-
ky Legislature, and is now awaiting the ac-
ton of that of Ohio. Kentucky being a
slave State, would not be likely to do aught
to endanger the peculiar institution, or cause
those to suffer who live by it; and remem'
bering tina! her fugitive slaves, who m
times find it difficult TO cross the Ohio river
either by swimming or otherwise, would
doubtless rejoice in the building of such a
bridge and use it more for their own than
their masters' benefit, inserted a provision in
The bill making the company liable " for all
slaves who escape through its cOnnivance."
