AyTI-SLAVERY VIEWS IN SLAVE STATES.

NEAR EUFAULA, BARBOUR Co, ALABAMA,
July IL, 1880.
DEAR Sir have received the National Era
Of the 4th instant, and after carefully examining
its contents like Il well and therefore enclose TO
you two dollars, agreeable TO its terms Of sub
scription for one year. Having been born and
raised lbeing now in the cd year Of my sgel
amidst slavery, certainly have had q fair oppor-
tunity to judge Of the effect Of the system On So
ciety in this country There Is no doubt but IL
has tendency 10 vitate and demoralize hose who
own them, and to degrade those who do not
am we'll pleased with the Hon. Charles Durkee's
speech "a the CalifoTuia question and what he
said respecting slavery was well said. Bot he did
not attempt to portray the evils this just insti.
tuition produces on and among the free white
population Of the slaveholding States, nor do
suppose he could do it for the want Of ingorma.
ton. liz some OF the Southern members in Con-
gTess were disposed 10 do IL, they could tell all
about il bat II they were TO do IL, they would i'm.
medistely be denounced as traitors to their coun.
try by large majority Of the shareholders
all. thank God that have yet reason to hope
that there are some owners Of slaves whose seusi.
bilities are net 10 blunted and Lenumbed by what
we are told are our highest interests ~ TO admire
the institution Of slavery nevertheless we submit
TO the laws and customs OF the land we live in not
knowing how TO rid ourselves VI the evil. Bot
the introduction Of slavery into the newly ac-
quired Territories 10 quite another question. IL
seems to me that the people who inhabit these
Territories are altogether right In eadesvoring
TO exclude the evil, and that every Christian,
yea, every good man, yes, every one who believes
In equality and justice, ought TO sanction and
encourage these praiseworthy efforts.

SENATOR COOPER.

Mr.. Davis of Chester county, Pennsylvania,
adds the following postscript to business letter
addressed to u.s. We may have more to say Of
Senator Cooper.-Ed. Era
N. b. Cooper, Senator from our State, has
disappointed the people Of this section of the
country very much by his pro-slavery course.
When he and Thad Stevens were eleotioneerng
through this section of the State, they addressed
a Wing meeting at Kennett Square Cooper
said he would rather see the Union dashed into
a thousand fragments than see slavery extended
one inch farther. think it would not be amiss
to remind him of this pledge through the Era
There is no mistake about this, as can prove i,
by the President Of the meeting, Stevens made
an eloquent address, and has acted up fully to all
he promised there is no Doughface about him.
wish could say as much of Cooper am par
ticularly anxious that Cooper should know we
have not forgotten his speech. He and Stevens
were brought into our neighborhood to cut down
the Free Soil vote, and they succeeded in 30 do
ing to considerable amount

MARRIAGE.

Nature and natures God smile propitiously
upon the uAion that is sweetened by love and
sanctifed by the law. The sphere of our affec-
tions is enlarged, and our pleasures take wider
range We become more important and respected
among men, and existence itself is doubly enjoyed
with our softer self Misfortune loses half its
anguish beneath the soothing influence of her
smiles, and triumph becomes more triumphant
when shared with her. Without her what is man
A rowing and restless being, driven at pleasure by
romantic speculation, and cheated into misery by
futile hopes, the mad victim of untamed passion,
and the disappointed pursuer Of frutless joys.
But with her he awakens to a new life. He fol-
lows path wider and nobler than the narrow
road to self-aggrandizement - that is scattered
with more fragrant flowers and illuminated by
n clearer LIGHT

DR. BAILEY know OF no man in this region
for disunioD, if the Wilmot Proviso is passed
Judging from the packages TO our Office, the
Southern mail has groaned under the pressure of
Mr.. Websters speech. Many poor ignoramus
will learn for the first time that il would be an
insult to the South to exclude slavery from our
Territories
Perhaps, thousands in the South were looking
to that great man to turn the scale in favor Of
freedom there, TO afford them retreat from the
blighting effects of slavery without being COM
PEELED to 20 to the cold North But we don't
like to be insnlted So we must bristle up for
the fight, or prepare our neoks for the halter if
the Proviso pass. For myself, am willing to
risk it, think Mr. Webster has bid too high
Mr. Clay gives our Kentucky petitioners cold
comfort Southern politicians have much trouble
to keep down Southern anti-slavery sentiment
Some ten or twelve years ago, petition, respect
ably signed was sent from this region to Judge
Underwood to present TO Congress. The petit
ton was for Congress to take into consideration
the subject of emancipation in the District of
Columbia. The Judge wrote back TO some Of
the petitioners that there was so much excite
ment on that subject, &c, he thought II impru-
dent TO present il. One Of the petitioners lone of
the most eminent lawyers in the county, told me |
that he wrote back to the Judge that he thought |
1t his duty to present it, but he could use his dis
cretion So ended the matter.

The SLAVE lNsURREoTios in Lowndes county,
Alabama, which we intimated would probably
prove exaggerated, turns out TO be apocryphal
The report first appeared in the Columbus (Ga)
TINES, more than hundred miles from the scene
Of war. The Montgomery tAla) Adputisu and
Gazette, published in the county adjoining to
Lowndes, and within twenty-five or thirty miles
from the seat of justice, says that Il has heard
nothing Of any such insurecction, and expresses
the confident belief, In which most persons will
unite with 1t, that the Tmes has been hosxed.
