Gov. FOrd's Message.

The finances Of the State are represented to
be in sound and prosperous condition. There
is a surplus, after paying tho interest ON the
State debt and dcfraying the expenses of the
government, of S555,00O.
The Governor recommends a thorough re-
vision of the school laws an enlargement of
the Lunatic Asylum and the opening of the
institution to all, without reference to property,
free of expense an amendment OF the crimi-
nal laws, so as to reduce the minimum limit Of
imprisonment, thus diminishing the necessity
for pardons; and the establishment of State
Reform School for Boys, like the one existing
in Massachusetts,.
Gen. Taylor is gloriled, and the hope ex-
pressed that Fillmore will carry out Z" the same
general measures" that distinguished his adj
ministration.
The Union is praised Of course, but the Gov
ernor says he is not alarmed for its safety. at
stands like the granite rock at tho base Of the
mountain, unharmcd by the waves that have
beat upon it." lie might have added, that
like that same granite rock, it has no soul. lie
does say that he who goes for dissolution is q
traitor.
The Constitution, says the Governor, pro-
vidcs in substance that if slave shall escape
from his master into another State, he shall be
given up on claim and proof being made
Whatever rights arc secured to the slavehold-
ing States by this provision he would msintain
in good faith but he thinks the new fugitive
law contrary to the genius and spirit Of our free
institutions, and therefore dangerous to both
free and slave States, and consequently that il
ought to be amended or repealed.
But at the same time it should be faithfully
enforced while it remains to be the law Of tho
land-to resist it is rebellion, &C., "Let a Law
be passed, giving to tho master his constitution.

Slave-catching, then, according to the Gov.
ornor, is not per contrary to the spirit of oul

be restored to harmony and peace by amend.

any the less 'reproach' to people when they
have made 1t consttutonali Of all the doc
trines that ever came up out of the tottomlcss
pit, or that were ever concocted by the COM
bined diObolism Of that place, the sentiment,
our country right or wrong, is the most infer
nal. The country whose citizens act on that
principle must Of necessity be al,cays prong.--
1t is always for the good of country when
such citizens leave it. lie is the true friend of

tains his allegiance to God and the Right, with
out regard to human constitutions and enact
mcnts. Such and such only arc the saviors of
their country, though they arc too often its
martyrs also.
The Republican taunts us with enjoying the
benefits and protection of government which
we dcspise, aud intmates that consistency re-
quircs us to leave the country if we cannot
support its Constitution. We beg leave to re-
mind our Democratic neighbor that our right to
a residence in this country is not derived from
the government which it has pleased the ma
jority to establish. As we were born without
leave of that'govcrnment, We think our right tc
a residence in the country of our birth in no
way depends upon it. As for the protection
Of the government, if the Republican means
the protection afforded by its army and navy,
its sherifs and slave-catehing marshals, we es-
teen it q curse; but if it were ever so great
blessing, we could not purchase it by the saeri'
fec of our allegiance to Higher Power. Foi
all the substantial benefits we enjoy in thi,
country VIC shall endeavor to show our graft.

differ, we will gladly meet it in the same spirit

The NATIONAL ERA.-It is needless for us
to say that this paper lacks the thoroughness
which in our judgment is a fundamental requi-
site in an anti-slavery Journal We acknow-
ledge, however, that in spite of this deficiency
it possesses many excellent traits, and is withal
one Of the most readable sheets in the country.
DIR. Bailey is an able writer, cool, logical, and
well informed, particularly on the political bear
ings and relations Of slavery. His position at
the seat of Government enables him to make
his paper q valuable medium of Congressional
and political intelligence while the assistance o,
such writer's as ]. g. Whittier, Grace Green
wood, Mrs. Southworth, DIR. Elder and Others.

sF'The following should have appeared some
weeks ago. 1t was accidentally mislaid.
Death of Ellis I. WiCkeYham.

My brother Ellis has left us. o, what rug
ged and stern world this is Wherever we turn
our eyes death and misery are wont to meet u.s.
Yet, after all, there is somewhat of the boauti-
ful, the grand, the pure and sublime-some re-
deeming qualities. If it were not so, this life
TO me would be intolcrable. Such qualities my
brother possessed in no small degree. lie had a
soul to sympathisc with the wrongcd wherever
found l mourn his loss--not for n yself alone,
Tor that were sclhshncss neither know that
should Tor his sake, for l have q faith that he
enjoys higher life of happiness than this world
knows of, but for humanity's sake MOURN.
Our Temperance Societies have here lost a true
friend. Our Literary, Anti Slavery and Peace
movements cannot well spare him, for to them
all he was true. The youth of the land know
not the loss they suffer he was their friend
their brother, and ever ready to do them service.
The sick and afflicted within his reach were sure
OF at least one good nurse and sympathizing
friend. Yet he was human, and had his faults;
and my sincere belief is that ms greatest fault
was, that OF risking health. lie was passionate
ly fond OF company, and scarcely less SO of re-
lieving the distressed. His life seemed to him
OF little value in times of sickness. Just pre-
viously to his being taken ill, Ct was sickly
here) he watched night after night with our
sick neighbors, thus inducing fever. Though
his death to us is a dread calamity, though it
lacerated those finer feelings OF our nature which
bind kindred souls together; though our hopes
of his future usefulness here arc blighted: yet
l would q thousand times rather he should die,
surrounded as he was by friends, than that he
should have been sold, as are multitudcs of
young mon and young women in this land, in
to slavery. And may this terrible visitation
nerve me and all others who lived him, TO do or
die for the millions who are constantly suffering
all the agonies of laccratcd affections. l feel
not like grieving and repining, but rather like
asking more earnestly "Lord what wilt thou
have me to do that keep inviolate thy phys
ical, moral and intellectual laws;

PHRENoLoGIcAL JoURNAL.-We find in the
number for December chronological descrip-
ton of the character of President Fillmore,
and have read it with considerable interest to
see what developments prompted him to sign
the Fugitive Bill but really it is a mystery to
us how such man as Mr.. Fowler represents
him to be could do deed so diabolical The
remark which comes nearest to an explanation
is this ; I" He is of polite cast of mind-will
play successful game, no matter at ,chat." But
we arc not sure that this Fugitive game was
very polite and we know it has not yet prov
cd very successful But there's no knowing
what may happen before the game is over.--
Beside this description of the President, there
is a great variety of readable articles. The new
volume commences in January, when several
important changes are to be made in tho work.
The editors will introduce a wider range of sub
jccts, embracing other sciences and topics of in

THE 'UNIoN MEETINGS. Junius,' the able
Washington correspondent of the Pittsburgh
Gazette denounces in the soverest terms the
Union meetings which have been in several Of
the Eastern Cities Some of those who arc ac-
tive in them, he says, are undoubtedly knaves,
but most of them busy simpletons, ready to stir
any bodys broth, or timid, well meaning people
of business, frightened at their own shadows
The meetings, he says, have but one object, and
that is to bully the conscience and the moral
sense of the Northern people into the support
of on unjust and dangerous law, to alarm Man
ufacturers, Merchants, and Capitalists, into q
surrender of their principles and convictions by
an appeal to their interests; and all to the end
that certain politicians among us may regain the
favor of tho discontcnted factions of their party
at the South.
1t is refreshing to find the truth so plainly
spoken in conservative paper like the Gazette
The same correspondent, to be sure, snecrs al
Abolitionists but no matter for that, if he will
only expose the Vaccinations of the Northern
services.

"A Defence for Fugitive Sldpes against the Acts
Of Congress Of February IL, 1893, and
Sept Is, 1850. BY LYsANDER SpooNEK.
Boston: Bella Marsh, 25 Cornhill, 1885,
~ PIP.
This pamphlet, like every other production
of Mr.. Spooner's pen OH the subject of sla-
very, exhibits much argumentatve skill and
great ingenuity in the Interpretation of the
primary and statute laws of the country
He maintains, as our readers well know, that
slavery is unconstitutional, and he has pro-
badly come as near demonstrating that pro-
position as il is possible for any man to pro-
ceed toward the impossible. In this work
he considers the Fugitive laws under two
aspects. Admittingin the first place, for tho
sake of the argument, TINT the clause 'per-
son held TO service or labor means slave,
he endeavors to show that the laws of '93 and
1850 are unconstitutional IN seven particu-
lars; and then in his Appendix hc plants
himself on his own peculiar ground, and de-
clares that, inasmuch as neither the Consti-
tuition nor the laws contain the scords slave
Or slavery. therefore they cannot be legally
understood to mean what these words imply.
The authors reasoning in support of the lat
ter proposition will not satisfy many minds;
but his pamphlet is well worth reading and
will do something to promote the good work
of agitation.

Relief for the Fugiiiyes.

We learn with great satisfaction that oui
trusty friend WILLIAM STEADMAN, of Randolph
has gone to Canada in charge of boxes of cloth
ing for the fugitivcs, from Portage and Stark
Counties. 1t is his intention, we understand,
to mako a pretty thorough investigation into
the state and condition of the fugitives and also
to make arrangements for the transmission and
distribution of further supplies The Ravenna
Star says:
Navigation will soon close, and what is doEc
must be done quickly. The true plan will be
for each township to send its own donations to
Cleveland by wagons, making their deposits
either in the Ware House of Rhodes s Green,
or of Lyman & Holt, and leave an amount in
money sufficient to pay charges to Detroit.
Several boxes were recently forwarded from
Salem, but more ought to be sent Wo fear
there will be much suffering among the refu-
gees from American tyranny during the pres
cnt winter. The Detroit papers speaks of the
arrival in that city of three wagons loaded
with provisions and clothing from Lcnawce Co.,
Mich for their relief James Macombe, mem
