The subscriber hereby extends Cordial invita-
ton 10 all of his friends an patrons to who are
indebted TO him to come forward and settle up

Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1849-08-04

~ THE PENNSYLVANIA ANTI-SLAvERY
Society will hold its Twelfth Anniversary
at Norristown, commencing on the 18th inst.
w. L. Garrison and S. II. Gay are expect
ed 10 attend. Our Pennsylvania friends new.
er fail to have a good Anniversary, and we
presume this will not be an exception 10 the
rule, In their official announcement the Ex-
ecutive Committee say: "Our movement
never stood in a more commanding attitude
before the public, nor were we as an organi-
cation ever in a better condition to labor eff
f~ectually for its advancement. Entirely uni
ted among ourselves, w are at the same
time the undisputed occupants of the Anti
Slavery field. Never had we finer opportu'

Benton and Calhoun.

The present position, in respect to ench
other and the country, OF these Two American
Statesmen-the one recognized as the father
Of the Senate and the other as the most en-
inent Of all the champions of eternal Slavery
is a matter which challenges universal atten-
ton. Both are aspirants for the Presidency,
and it is remarkable that, although both are
alike citizens of slaveholding States, and es-
s~en,ially of the same political faith, each is
seeking 10 reach the goal of his ambition up
on principles which the other repudiates and
rejects. Mr.. Benton was one Of the mostun-
scrupulous of all the conspirators for the An
~nexa,ion Of Texas, and, up TO a very recent pc
Iiod, identified Internationally with the slave
holding interest. He is too sagacious a man,
however, not to perceive, that public opinion
in this country is undergoing a rapid change,
and becoming more and more imbued with
hostility 10 Slavery. His own State Of Mis-.
souri,, like several others on the n Northern bor-
der of the slave region, is not a little infected
with anti.slavery sentiments; and now that
the Abolition Movement at the North has be-
come a "6xed fact" and there is no longer
any hope that it can be put down, We see the
timid and long.overawed opponents Of the
system in the Slave States acquiring courage
TO declare their opinions and adopt measures
for their propagation. Mr.. benton knows
that the end Of all this is 10 be Freedom, and
that the end cannot long be postponed
Hence we find him lacking ship and setting
his sails 10 catch the new gale from the North.
OF course, as a politician, it will not do for
him 10 go too far at once, and so he takes up
the issue Of Free Soil as applied to Califor.
f MIA and New Mexico, and makes war upon
: Mr.. Calhoun and the ultra-slayeites as fana-
e tics and conspirators against the Union. In
: Missouri the battle wages with great fury
Mr. Benton is trsversing the State, making
r Aaming speeches, while his vigllant oppo
S nen,s, headed by his Senatorial colleague
Mr.. Acbison, are leaving no stone unturne'
to secure a popular verdict against him an
compel him to obey the pro-slavery instruC
. tons Of the last Legislature or resign hi
seat. What may be The Immediate result
e lhis conflict no one can tell. MIR. Bentoi
with the aid Of enc half the presses Of Ia
party, may perhaps triumph. We %certainl
n. hope so, for wherever there is a clean issr
In between Slavery and any form Of Anli-Slav
81 ry, however diluted, our sympathies must a
ways be with the latter.

A DISGUSTING SoENE.-We yesterday wit
messed a most disgusting and heartrending
scene in the Third Municipality. A negro
boy about IL or IA years of age had been
whipped and cut up shamefully by his mis-
tress, a colored woman, and then sent by his
mother to a blacksmith-shop to be manacled.
His feet were ironed closely together, and in
this condition the mother was leading him
through the street. A gentleman who was
attracted by the piliful spectacle sent the boy
to the police Office, and he was thence sent
10 the hospital by Recorder Seuzeneau. The
matter will be investigated.

Remarks.

1t would be a mere waste of words 10 en-
ter upon a discussion of the issues presented
above. The reference Of the Secretary to the
part taken by the author in the debates of the
anniversary was rather blind, and it is well
that it should be corrected but for the rest,
we must say that, in our judgment, the Soci-
ety was not at fault. The Church, the Cler-
gy and the Government were faithfully rebu-
ked for their criminality in sustaining Slave
ry let those who think there was any want
of reverence in the manner of doing it make
their objections. We would say of the sup
porters of these pro-slavery Institutions what
whoever meets them give them a good fog
cling, for as they always deserve it, it can
never come amiss.' AS for the Bible, if there
are som who treat it too irreverenily, the
fault lies chiefly with the popular Clergy and
