Where is that Report.

1t is now more than three months, since a
Disunion petition was presented to the Leg
~islature Of this State, and referred TO a com
mittee Of one, consisting Of DR.. Townshend.
1t is barely possible, it may have been re.
ported upon, and the notice thereof escaped
our attention, but we think not. We pre-
sumo it remains in the possession Of Dr..
Townshend, who has found one quarter 5r q
year too short a time TO prepare a reply TO its
arguments and as the Legislature will pro-
baby adjourn the latter part Of this month,
we are apprehensiye it will never be repor.
ted upon, but be buried at the close Of the
session with other unfinished business.
Had the petition been committed to some
Of the members TO whom reason, truth, JUS
lice, humanity are nothing, and party every
thing, we should have looked for n report
long since-one full Of sound and fury, burn
ing tow and fiery patriotism. But DR.. Town.
shend is reputed a man Of sense, and we are
therefore not surprised he takes three months
10 consider the subject, when q search OF
three gears would not suffice TO furnish him
with a single argument against the positions
assumed in the petition. His long silence is
complimentary ; though we confess VT should
be exceedingly sorry to let the present ses'
sion close without having some kind Of a
report; if he cannot otherwise satisfy him
self, Jet him report that the arguments Of the
petitioners are un-answerable, aud their re-
quest a reasonable one.

Western Anti-SIavery Fair.

AT the last meeting of the Executive Com
mittee, the following preamble and resolution
were unanimously adopted:
Whereas: The Annual Meeting of the
Western Anti. Slavery Society will this year
convene two months before the time at which
the Western ~Anti.Slavery Fair has hereto
fore been held, and would allow but a short
time TO make preparation for the latter; there
fore
"Resolved That we suggest to those in
t~erested in the Fair, that it be held at the usu-
al time-in August-at such place as may
be deemed most suitable and that if the
goods should not all, or nearly all, be dispo-
sed of at the first sale, that arrangements be
made to hold other sales at such places as
may be determined upon, having an interval
of a week or more between them, and contin-
,uing the same until the articles contributed
shall be sold"
We think the above suggestion will be IA
voiebly received, not only for The reason sta
ted, but for others. When a Fair and Annu-
al Meeting are held at the satne time and
place, it is obvious that both cannot receive
that share Of attention to which they are sep
arately entitled. Those who are qualified to
attend 10 the arrangements and conduct Of the
Fair, are the very ones whose presence and
counsel are needed in the meeting; and one,
or both of these agencies must suffer from
their absence. And then it is difficult to find
-. - -
be furnished for both Fair and Meeting. To
have them a quarter Of a mile apart, as was
the case last year, is an inconvenience which
cannot be appreciated except by those who
have experienced it. Doubtless more money
could be raised for the cause by having a
Fair ard Meeting at different times than at
the same. Too tnany Of the abolilionists
who attend them when held together, feel
that if they purchase articles at the Fair, they
are contributing of their means to the support
of the anti-slavery cause, and that this obvi-
ates the necessity of their making any dona-
lion to the Society. But how stands the
fact! What they buy at the Fair, they pay
no more for than its market value, and some
times not so much and though the money
thus expended goes into the treasury of the
Society. the purchasers receive an equivalent
for it. If the Fair and Meeting ars held at
different times, there will be no danger Of
any one confoundinp The ideas of purchasing
ard giving. and ihinkino himself benevolent
when he is only mercantile.
