ANTI-sLAvERY BUGLE, SALEM, o.


accomplished by a resort TO force among
the several sovereign States comprising
the same, and if superior in point of pow.
or, the effect is dissolution; the Sc cond is
tantamount TO the first, an agreement a
mong a majority or three-fourlhs of the
States to abandon the compact-and al.
though the other States as parties to the
same do not consent, yet if the former
persist, and succeed by resort 10 arms
the Union is dissolved. We may alter
or amend the National Constitution in
the manner therein pointed out, Art. 3.
These are matters, however, not directly
now under consideration. The question
is, "shall the petition be received and re-
ferred 2" 1t must be admitted that the
right of petition is fundamental and cock
istent with a political Republican Gov
crnment. The 18th Sec. of the 9th Art.
of our State Constitution says: "That the
people have a right to assemble together
TO consult for their common good, 10 in
struct their Representatives, and TO apply
TO the Legislature fer a redress of griev-
ances."
Now, as we cannot specify the subjects
upon which the people may exclusively
petition, and no other, nor can one sec
ton of the State determine for another,
nor the whole for a part, what shall be
the subject matter Of grievance, and what
is necessary for the common good, it is
reasonable 10 conclude that the right OF
petition, all things considered, is a right
Of which no citizen can be deprived
The right pre-supposes the duty of some
power TO receive or accept. If that be
true, then the question is, shall they be
referred? Now experience has abund-
antly taught us, that in this matter, as up
on similar questions that have arisen
elsewhere in the Union, the true and
wise policy is TO refer the petition, and
let the report thereon be circulated
through the whole community as a re.
buke as well as a satisfactory answer to
the unreasonable, inconsistent, and | will
add, impossible, and | might say, ANTI.
REPUBLICAN prayer of the petitioners
But, if we smother it here, the spirits
that dictate and direct it, the petition, will
gather energy and force by what they
conceive TO be oppression and persecu.
ton, and will slumber not until it is so
answered. | cannot consent to think OIL
dissolying the Union, much less can
approve Of the wild and unreasonable
schemes of those who may desire its
contamination but TO answer them is 10
convict, and, il possible TO convince them
of their error.-Staie Journal.

Kentucky Legislature.

The following report of the recent ac-
ton of the Kentucky House of Represen-
t%atives, shows that that body is opposed
to emancipation "except as now provided
for by the Constitution and laws Of the
State"
Mr.. Dohoney offered the following
resolution
Resolved, That we, the Representa-
tives OF the people Of Kentuky, are oppo-
sed 10 abolition or emancipation of slave
ny in any form or shape whatever.
Mr.. Ewing said he looked upon the
resolution as entirely foreign 10 the du-
ties for which the Representatives were
sent here, and he therefore moved to lay
the resolution on the table.
Upon this motion the yeas and nays
being called, it was lost; yeas ID, nays
76.
Mr.. Ewing said he saw by the resolu-
lion that it was too general in its terms
-"any shape OIL form Whatever" not
even allowing emancipation by last will
and testament according 10 the law and
Constitution as il now exists. He thought
this resolution was throwing down the
gauntlet TO the emancipationists, and
would provoke combat which he believed
unnecessary and impolilic, since the pro-
slavety men had need TO act only on the
defensive. lie had no fear or dread of
emancipation he had said that he was
no emancipalionist, and gentlemen of
the House could believe him or not, but
II he was an emancipationist, he would
have the courage to avow it. He should
vote against the resolution.
MIR. Vertress said it was the very res
o'ution he had desired 10 offer 10 the
House. He thought The vote upon the
resolution, would show to the people of
Kentucky, the position Of every man up
on the all-absorbing question of emanci-
patton. 1t was not alone for the purpose
of disturbing the question, that he desi-
red the passage Of this resolution. The
pro-slavery men were not in favor of
agitation /; they had slavery, and it was
for those who wished TO restrict that
right, guaranteed to them by The Consti-
tuition, TO disturb it if they choose. He
was opposed TO gradual emancipation
now or Prospectively, and he did not say
any man in the House was an emancipa.

Notes from the LGcturing Field.
GRAFTON, Feb. 8, ls49.

GRAFTON, Feb. 9, ls49.
FRIENDS EDIToRs:
BY this time both yourselves and readers
again from the lecturing field. | have been
thinking SO myself, for what with holding
meetings, travelling, trying TO hunt up those
indebted to the society, and other "cares of
ting, and almost as little disposition.
Since l communicated with the Bugle,
meetings have been held in Pennsylvania;
Ashtabula, Trumbull, Columbiana, Carroll,
Harrison, Cuyahoga, Summit, Medina and
Lorain counties, Ohio, a detailed account of
which l have not time 10 give.
Everywhere, it seems to me, that the tone
of Anti-Slavery sentiment is rising, although,
at the same time, there is more than plenty
of that bitter unchristian opposition manifest
ed by the pro-slavery churches and politicians
which SO long has characterized their pro-
ceedings. If | thought that to emancipate
the Slave, it was necessary to convert the
masses of the people to thorough consistent
anti slavery action, l should become disheart.
ened, and be almost ready TO give up the con-
test; but do not think this is by any means
necessary. The slave will be a man long
before thousands have ever given the subject
a thought. Our meetings, on the whole,
were well attended, and if one can Judge
from appearances, considerable good was eff
fected. At Leesburgh, the meetings were
well attended, and a glorious spirit prevailed.
The Wesleyan friends opened the house, &c.,
which made things more pleasant than usual.
While we were there, our old Episcopal
friends tried hard to get up a "revival,' but
1t was of no avail. Their day is past.
AT Perrysville the Wesleyans were less
noble than those of Leesburg. The house
was closed, and an exhorter or preacher of
the name of NorTocks locked the door and
took the key, declaring the house should not
be opened. But I" two men of the world ~
named Caper and Cummins, who happened
to be trustees, told them if the house was not
opened, they would break open the doors.-
Still Bro. Norrocks maintained his integrity.
A key was found that opened the door, and
good meetings were held.
To show the spirit by which some Z" chris
tians are actuated, as also to show what
agents have sometimes TO meet, | will relate
a circumstance that transpired at New Mar
ket, Harrison county. Two meetings were
appointed 10 be held there. IL used ~ ba
one of my preaching places several years ago,
when | was a "belieyer." Mr.. Curtis went
on to hold them on one of the coldest DAYS of
the season. was quite sick-had been un-
able to attend the meeting the evening previ-
Gus at all. l said to Henry, we will call at
the first house where l am acquainted, for
feel ought not to ride much farther. The
friend at whose house we stopped was Yves.

Some Work to DO.

MARLBORO Feb. 18Th, 1919.
Friend, sitting here and reading this arti-
Gle, if you were a Slave, would you not like
to hear a newspaper published and circulated
to free you? Well, 100000 of your brothers
in the South are Slaves, and this paper which
you hold in your hand, is printed and sent
over the country, to help free them. And as
you would want to have it live and prosper,
if it was devoted to the work of redeeming
you from Slavery, you ought equally to wish
TO have it do so, now that it is engaged in
the work Of redeeming others. The Anti
Slavery Bugle then, that is, this paper which
you are holding, must be sustained. 1t must
be, because if you were the Slave, you would
want TO hear it.
What then, are You willing TO do, to sus-
tain it2 Are you a subscriber for it? You
are now reading it, perhaps you read it every
week, but do you take it! If not, will you
mott 1t will only cost you a dollar in ad-
vance for so numbers, and that is cheap en-
ough, as you well know yourself. Besides,
you will feel better to read your own paper,
than to have to borrow one. If you have
not a dollar on hand, you can ask one ofyodr
1eighbors to lend it to you. You need not
that you will not be able to pay him. for
ay your hand on your heart and tell me if
,ou do not spend many a dollar in the course
# the year, for things not half so important
yes, for things not important at all. But
low, if you thus throw away your money,
instead Of giving it for a Bugle, do you do as
you would be don't by? Do the Slave the
~ustice, then, TO subscribe for this advocate

sr thing, pay.
But perhaps you are a subscriber. Well

OF the Iowas called Massauaauot, Jumped
into the wagon and immediately stabbed
the Pawnee girl; this savage example
was followed by other Indians present,
who stabbed her and shot at her in the
most tiendish manner, and ended by scalp
ing and offering the most disgusting in
dignities to the dead body. No member
OF the white family was harmed. A mes
senger was Immediately despatched to
the nearest fort for U. S. Dragons and
two OF the Indians were arrested and put

taken on them till more was captured.
The tragedy which occurred near

A CALIFORNIA TRIcK.-The following
story is told by "Chapparal,' the Cali.
| fornia correspondent of the N. Q. Crescent
Three of the ''old ones" who had jns,
given up further operations in hole in
which they had been digging for many
days-the last two without any benefit
and had resolved to go in search of a
more profitable one, seeing Jonathan
approaching with his new fxens, and
thereby inferring that he was one of the
uninitiated, concluded to do him., if it
were possible 10 come it over one from
! so near where the sun rises. No sooner
was it suggested than determined on.
Pulling out from his buckskin bag five
or six ounces in small pieces, the digger
dropped them in the hole. and with his
| feet covers them up in the dirt. 1t was
no sooner accomplished than up came
Jonathan. Putting down his back. and
observing the man digging away with
| all his might. he at once "calculated"
that they were doing pretty we'll Eyes" f"
said the man with the pickaxe, resting
| on the handle, and looking at the conner,
''we ought to do pretty well here now, for
get down to the gold, but knowing from
the formation that it would pay well,
we did not dispair, and our last FIVE pan
fulls assure us that we will do we'll, for
from them we got near six ounces"
The victim opened his month in astonish-
ment, whilst the doers proceeded to wash
pan full before his face, in which was
an ounce and a half of what had been
thrown In on his approach. Such sue
cess he had not dreamed of. Another
pan full washed out two more of the
ounces. At the Sight of this, Jonathan
wanted to know if they would not sell
out-a common practice among the min
ers. "No, too much labor to get down
to the metal" "Ill give you $780,"
"We can make that in two hours"
"$3OO." "No." By this time the wash
ing of another pan full produces the
residue Of what had been dropped in
This Of course increased the value of the
hole, and the Yankee offered S400. 1t
was near night, and the miners ceased
operations. After few moments con-
versation apart, the head man went up
to Jonathan. and told him that for $500
he might have the hole, as one of the
party wanted TO go to San Francisco,
but if he had 'all the say, a thousand
wouldn't get it." The bargain was con-
cluded, The money paid, and before day
light the three were off, No one was
present when Jonathan washed his pan
fulls the next morning, but from the
length Of his face in the evening, when
he came to the camp of his nearest neigh
Dor, it was generally coacluded that he

the Secretary of War has recently ordered
a survey of a route from Fulton on Red

Capt. Catlett, of Texas to accompany
the expedition, which is placed under the
direction of COL johnson of the Topo-

thinks this is the best route for railroad
to the Pacific.
