The Society of Friends early An
ti-Slavery Action.

A person Of but ordinary observation soon
becomes convinced Of the fact that d religious
society is not often improved by age, but has
a higher standard of morals at its organiza-
ton, than when time has weakened the pop
ular prejudice against it, and deadened the
opposition which made it strong in the main
tenance Of its principles. AS wealth, popu-
larity, and honors flow in upon its members,
they become transformed into a likeness Of
the world, and lose much of the principle of
action, and purity of life which compel the
respect and admiration of opponents. And
this is as true of the Society of Friends as Of
any other religious body. For a number Of
years subsequent to its organization, when
the name of Quaker was considered as re-
proachfu! as that of Negro is now, the mem
beEs Of the society were unwearied in their
labors against the slave-trade and slavery
ever ready to follow wherever Truth led the
way. George Fox, its founder, ardently es-
Poused the cause OF the oppressed, and labor
ed against slavery with the zeal and deter
minaiion which characterized the man. In
1871, he visited the island of Barbados, in
company with his esteemed friend and fell
low minister, William Edmondson. In a
sermon preached while there, is the following
passage
Consider with yourselves if you were in
the same condition as the poor Africans are,
who came strangers 10 you and were sold 10
you as slaves; | say if this should be the
condition of you and yours, you would think
it a hard measure yea, and very great bon
dage and cruelty. And therefore consider
seriously of this and do you for them, and
to them, as you would willingly have them,
or any others do unto you were you in the
like slavish condition, and bring them TO
know the Lord Jesus Christ"
His companion having denounced the
whole system of slavery, was brought before
the Governor, charged with making the slaves
Christians, and exciting them TO discomfort
and insurrection. In his defence he said
at was a good thing to bring them 10 the
knowledge of God and Christ Jesus, and to
oelieVe III hlm WHO uleu ioI 'heW anu all
men, and that this would keep them from re-
belling or cutting any PERSONS throat but
that if they did rebel and cut their (the slave
holders) lhroats, it would be their own do.
ing in keeping them in Ignorance and under
oppression"
AT the time the Society of Friends dates its
origin, England and her colonies were deep
ly engaged in Slavery and the slave-trade.-
The latter was one of the most extensive and
lucrative branches of British commercial
classes of persons engaged in it; and to have
vessels employed in the slave-trade was
thought no disgrace. There was then but
little opposition either to the traffic in slaves,

DEAR FRIENps


DEAR FRIENDS:
was somewhat amused in reading in the
Bugle the reception Of Zachary Taylor at
louisville, KY, on his way 10 Washington.
! think it was some Presbyterian ladies who
presented him with the Bible and American
Constitution bound together. The council
of Constance, (Which sat in l414 until l4lS,)
| think it was, which decided that the books
now bound together should be canonical =
The Council of Philadelphia, which sat in
1857, decided that the Constitution Of the u
nited States should be Of authority and so it
is, that the good people of Louisville, KY,
have bound them together, and have present.
ed them 10 their - President elect" "as con-
tanning all that is essential to faith and prac-
tice." Truly the superscIiption stamped up.
on our coin, | mean The " Z Piuribus Unun,"
is fulfilled. | did no, learn at which end of
the book the Constitution took its place,
though probably at the last; being of higher
other document, human or divine. 1t strikes
me that our pro-slavery clergy of this coun-
try could induce the Bible societies 10 strike
off several thousand copies for the special
benefit of those who regard SHE poUers that
be as ordained Of Cod, / would suggest
some references, say from Deut. 25: Is, to
the rendition article, with a note, stating that
the Jewish law is repealed by this article Of
the Constitution. Cursed be Canaan, (Gen.
o; 25.) with numerous other passages, could
readily then find a veriication under the
sanction Of the Constitution. Romans, 18th
chapter, could be explained by reference TO
the articles relating to the Executive and the
Congress, when they "declars war, grant
letters of marque and rePrisal." By-the.by,
1 do not entertain as high an opinion of the
council of Constance or of Philadelphia, as
many do, some of the first deeds which they
of Constance did, if informed Alright, was 10
burn Jerome of Prague and John Huss, and
obtain from Germany some two hundred con-
cubines for their use while sitting.
The American council delivered over 10
the cruelties Of slavery the then 500, 900 human
beings, and in them,-how awful the thought!
the unborn millions whose blood has darken-
ed and moistened the earth, who have sweat,
and bed, and DIED this tells their history

those whom they dislike, and against whom
they are so clamorous in crying infdel for ex-
lending the mercies Of a slave-holding God
TO the down-trodden victims of a msn-de-
~s,roy.ing and tyrannical church.
Why DO not churches term all their mem
bers horse.ihieves and assassins, because a
certain horse thief and assassin (John A.
Muuel,) once went about preaching the Cos.
pei under church discipline And why do
not ministers in general term the whole laity
retrogressive, because a few laymen have de-
waited from their established standard of
Christianity! They should do so, since they
are so ready to denounce as infdels all who
embrace Nom Resistance, just because some
Non.R esistant-C. G. Burleigh or II. G.
Wright, for Observation-Disclosures Disunion,
which they falsely term inidelity. Men are
called inhdels because they are Non-Resist-
an,s-Non Resislants because they are Disu-
nionists and vice versa thus making one
doctrine the hobby of another, making God
the author Of their antipathies, excluding all
reason, and presenting a scene Of confusion
and folly from which humanity %recoils with
indignation. With such ncoherencies as
these, the clergy Of our land are actually
chargeable, and the bigoted d~evotees of mar
row-minded sectarianism will sit s%upinely
and cry amen. And 10 what must we attrib-
ute these heaven-robbing deeds! Can it be
that they are the result Of intellectual obtuse-
ness, or mental stupidity, or must they be
imputed to voluntary dePravity!
Some cause has been %effectual in inducing
mankind TO become very Jealous in serving
God and paying tribute TO him who needeth
not the aid of puny man, while beneyolence
to mankind and regard for philanthropy are
held in disrepute; thus virtually acting in OPP
position 10 Him whom they profess TO follow.

whom he has not seen, and yet hates his bro

asmuch as ye did it not unto one Of the least
of these, ye did it not unto me-" Whether
a religion which consists wholly in phllan-
thropy and justice, is all that is requisite to
insure ultimate happiness, is not necessary to
the present purpose; but one thing is certain,
that to endorse a system of mere abstract the
ology, and to utterly disregard the suiferings
of neediul humanity, whose welfare ought to
be the aim of all theologists, is sacrilege in
the highest degree, and will finally be class

Mr.. WIN. TELL PoussIN, Sc.

We find the %followin in a letter of the N. Y.
correspondent of the Union. We should certain
ly rejoice to see the distinguished men named by
the writer find their way 10 our shores. Oucl
country is an asylum for the oppressed, and weh
are always gratlfied when we hear Of f~ugitives
from despotiSm availing themselves of its immu-
mites. But we wish them to come, not as pro-
pagandlsts OF their own often distorted and abb
surd ideas of freedom, but as pupils in the school
of American Republicanism. What absurdity to
say that kossuth coming amongst us, can do
more than any other man of the age of either
hemisphere Except Mazzini) can do for the
cause OF the progress ofliberal principles in this
country" kossuth was a patriot, who stood up
m~anfully for the independence of his country
but what do we know of his political opinions ?
In what practical school has he studied ? We are
ignorant even that he is Republican in senti-
ment. And yet this correspondent libels all the
political leaders of the country. by asserting that
kossuth more than they all could promote the
march of liberal principles here-nay, with one
exception, and that an Italian, he is placed a.
head OF all living men in this particular. We
want no European incubation of free principles.
We are content with the American school OF Re-
publicanism. We want neither Kossuth nor MAJ
zini to teach us ideas of liberty, or the nature of
our institutions. We incline to think neither has
any very clear conception of those free principles,
which are part and parcel of our people, and as
indispensable to their political, as the air to their
natural, existence. Heaven, in its mercy, pro-
tect us from foreign propagandism!
Not less ridiculous and insulting are the re-
marks as TO BEN and Dembinski. I'VE would moi
tderogate from their military reputation, but what
nonsense to assert that these mems presence in
tins country would be equivalent, in the way of
defence, ITO large and well trained armies" The
Mexican campaigns are referred TO, in order TO
snow that our soldiers are admirable, and that lea
ders only, like BEN and Dembinski, are wanting
TO render US safe from the assaults OF despotisln.
Nov, If the Mexican war showed the bravery
and excellent qualities of our rank and file, it
showed, In even a greater degree, the military
skill Of our leaders. We want neither European
