enacted In Virginia, providing for the gradual
abolition Of slavery, real-estafe would COMMAND
twice its present price Immediately, and within
fifieen or twenty years the owner would realise
from Eve TO ZEN times the amount for which
they are now anxious, but unable to sell. am

continuing the slave system in your State must
already be apparent to every rejecting mind;

ANEcporE OF JUDGE PARsoNs-The bar Of
Essex county, Mass, had made rule that no law
dents But il so happened that the celebrity of
Parsons then a practicing lawyer in Essex, had
gained him more than his due share, and he was
accused. before the bar, of having five students.
He denied the charge but it being clearly proved
that there were in his office five young gentlemen
aiming at the law, it was matter of curious spec
ulation among his legal brethren how he would
get himself clear of the accusation. "Why gen.
tlemen," said he, " / have positively but three
students, and believe prove it to your entire
satisfaction 1t is true, have five young men in
